Introduction

The Sandy Hooks debacle sent shock waves throughout the American education system and by extension, compelled other forward thinking nations to review their respective educational systems. In unison, the community around the Sandy Hooks Elementary School, the nation and the international community at large rallied behind the victims of the tragic events. However, one academician in particular shocked the world, the nation and more so, the victims of the fatal shootings (Jaschik, 2015). An associate professor, James Tracy tenured with the Florida Atlantic University’s School of Communication and Media Studies related the events to some conspiracy theory. Parents ...

Introduction

The security of schools is a major priority for the administrative personnel in such institutions. As such, they are likely to employ different methods to strengthen the security situation in schools. One of the methods, which are likely, is that of arming the school staff with guns. Although, this may be a good step, there are numerous disadvantages associated with it. Therefore, the essay aims at addressing the demerits and problems that are likely to arise when guns are used to protect schools.

Secondly, the use of guns by school employees undermines the role played by police professionals who are ...

Hospital gowns are never intended to make a fashion statement. They are more intended for comfort, along with saving and protecting the dignity of the patient from unnecessary exposure. Hospital gowns need to be seen from different perspectives, which will also allow ease of access to the patient, while treating the patient and performing bedside procedures.

Typical hospital gowns can be made from a mix of cotton polyester blend or just pure cotton fiber. There is also an option of flannel material for enhancing the patient’s comfort during winter months. Hospital gowns can be designed either on unisex format ...

My personal values are very stalwart in nature like I do not play video games until all my work is done or until I have done a certain amount of work for that day, and I also value respecting and trusting people until they give me a reason not to. I value honesty above all else, there is not a lot of things that set me off but a person being dishonest will definitely upset me; the way I see it, if I can be honest then why can’t that person be honest with me.

Introduction

Cooperative strategy is an essential means through which firms of different sizes are responding to the competitive forces in the current marketplace. It allows firms to operate together to offer products and services that surpass what anyone of them could offer on its own.

Among the alternative rationales that are established for cooperative strategy on a business level, the most effective in developing a sustainable competitive advantage are complementary strategic alliances. This paper, therefore, aims to discuss the reasons as to why complementary strategic alliances are the ...

1. There were six victims killed – two females and four males (Bovsun, 2010).

One of the female victims was pregnant. Her door was unlocked and the perpetrator entered the house just as she was about to bring the garbage out. She was alone. The other female was babysitting an infant and had her son with her when all three of them were killed (Ramsland, 2012). The son was supposed to go to a friend’s house around the time of the killings. A male friend was in the house and also died. Both the female victims were sexually assaulted.

There are four crime scenes. One home was entered into by the perpetrator and ...

Introduction

The Tea Party movement in the United States is greatly influencing the political agenda of the Republican National Party. Although the Tea Party movement did not get its running start until late 2009, the movement has gained great momentum since the midterm elections of 2010. Furthermore, the 2014 midterm election results on all three levels of government (national, statewide and local) reiterates the popular notion that the Tea Party movement fails to be merely a passing phenomenon, but is fundamentally changing the Republican Party (Hook 1).

The Tea Party Movement

The Tea Party is primarily made up of conservative and libertarian politicians, among the ...

Introduction

Gun control debate has attracted heated debate on whether the use of gun should be controlled or should not in the United States. Different political sides have assumed hardline stands on the issue. This is evident from the proponents for gun legislation control and the opponents for the control of gun use. President Barack Obama has made his intentions clear on gun control in congress. This was exclusively after the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting. Obama confirmed his proposal on the need of congress to pass the legislations that will check the ownership and usage of guns. The legislation should ...

In the recent past, school violence has been identified as a serious problem in several countries, and the problem has been made worse in the incidents where guns and knives are involved. Generally, the violence involves fights between students, as well as physical fights carried out on school staff. One form of school violence which has received a lot of attention from the media, as well as the public, is school shootings. This arises from the fact that school shootings pose a serious threat to public safety, and the stakeholders have a reason to worry about that. In the last decade, one of ...

Medication errors are estimated to cause approximately 7000 deaths annually and cost approximately $2 billion in added health care spending. Improving the safety outcomes of medication-use processes in hospitals has been cited as a means of addressing this issue. Careful and planned use of information technology is a proven approach to solve a majority of medication errors made with paper-based systems (Paoletti et al., 2007). These systems have been found to provide much better compliance with the “five rights” of medication administration: right patient, right dose, right route, right time, and right medication (Hook, 2008). Accordingly, the present paper describes a test ...

Introduction

Managing people is a complex task as there are no specific rules that could make sure that people would behave in the most appropriate manner (Henry, 1995). The behavior of the individual is difficult to predict and with organizations increasingly focusing on diversity in the workforce, this is creating more difficult for organizations to manage people. With more people belonging from diverse background in organizations today, it has resulted in increasing complexities in managing people (Foot, & Hook, 2011). Therefore managing workforce or people at the organization have become much more complex than it used to be few years back. ...

Part I:

I believe that, despite the seemingly mercurial and boundary-less morality of Peter Pan, there are instances in which he shows himself to have a moral code. Even though he seems less restricted than many, and he is seen by Wendy and the others to be the stereotypical naughty boy, who never wants to grow up and always gets in trouble, he acts according to a code of ethics. He is dedicated to the protection of Wendy and the Lost Boys, and seems to be very kind to those for whom he feels responsible. He saves Tiger Lily from Captain Hook at ...

Nobody hates looking at women’s funny character in movies. Something that mulvey well put across. The conditions of watching a move in the cinema gives authority to a voyeuristic spectatorship. All spectators are chirping characters taking pleasure and watching others while they remain unseen. In other fields, feminists have identified voyeurism as violence that is because of gender. The chirping character is most often a man-watching female without her knowledge. Most of the funny erotic scenes, you find a woman fully exposing her body and private parts but never will you find a man doing so. The power of the man’s look ...

Introduction

The neurophysiology of nerve pulses in the cell were the subject of the online laboratory experiment in order to better understand neuron communication from inside a cell to the outside of a cell. One of the incredible characteristics of the nervous system is its capability to communicate due to the existence of neurons. Neurons show a measurable response to their environment by producing an electrical signal. We can smell due to olfactory sensory neurons that can directly react to perfume, food or anything with an odor; these odors are the sensory stimuli. The function of the receptor potential is to trigger an ...

Jane Doe

n/a n/a William Goulding’s novel, Lord of the Flies has not only been a classic piece of literature that is studied and admired throughout both the literary and academic world. The fascinating story of a group of young boys stranded on an island after their plane crashes was also produced into a film in 1963 by director Peter Brook, and then remade in 1990 by director Harry Hook. After observing the 1990 version of the film I was able to capture numerous core concepts and theories of sociology that were applicable to the events unfolding among the characters of ...

The Second Amendment, commonly referred to as the right to bear arms, is the constitutional provision that guarantees individuals the right to keep and bear arms. Even though in the text it talks of militias and people, the Supreme Court in the case of District of Columbia v. Heller interpreted it to also include the right of an individual to bear arms. The philosophy underpinning its inclusion by the founding fathers was the inalienable right of self defense and the duty of the citizen to act in defense of the state, whether in resisting oppression or external aggression (Johnson, ...

Summary and Annotation

Putting Walden’s philosophy and that of Henry David Thoreau, it is easy to notice the interconnectedness of their philosophies and their practicality. Both use metaphors that in the end become a philosophic system. Walden speaks about the relationship between man and his environment. Thoreau on the other hand demonstrates that human beings can overcome struggle that exists between the self and the society but then, nothing can be trusted if proof is not offered, “No way of thinking or doing, however ancient, can be trusted without proof.”(Hamby 1). These try to bring out meaning of the inherent things ...

Several states across America are proposing that school employees should be allowed to carry concealed weapons at school. This was prompted by the Sandy Hook mass murder. Twenty first-graders and six adult staff members were killed in mass murder at Sandy Hook Elementary School in the quiet village of Sandy Hook in Newtown, Connecticut on December 14, 2012. Adam Lanza, the man behind what is now considered the second deadliest mass shooting by a single person in American history, was reported to have killed his mother at their Newtown home before driving to the school. Despite the upgraded security protocol ...

Conspiracy theories and rumors are the creation of people who have extraordinary minds to exaggerate ideas and event happenings in a non-desirable or negative way. People who spread rumors tend to have a lack of education and wisdom. However, it is also observed that even education does not stop people from sharing information that is not even known to exist. Some people disseminate information while threatening about something such as GMO foods or weapons of mass destruction etc. Thus, it is a continuing practice in today’s world to speak without thinking and believing in things or rumors that do not exist ...

‘Instructor’s Name’

‘Subject’ Should the US have stricter gun control laws? Guns have a special place in American history and Americans have always had a love for firearms. This love affair for guns started in the seventeenth century, when the early settlers were required to carry gun to protect themselves from Indian attacks. The ‘Kentucky rifle’ of the 1700s, Samuel Colt of the nineteenth century and WWII veterans bringing home their enemy guns as trophies are all symbols of the proud American past. However, the spate of recent mass shootings has called for a stricter regulation of gun ownership and distribution. The ...

(Institution Name) Have you heard about Sandy Hook? A fanatic who was a media violence junkie murdered twenty innocent children, along with six staff members. In the past few years, gun violence has been on the rise in many previously peaceful countries in the world and researchers are claiming that the attackers are usually people who have been fed violence via different media channels, predominantly TV and video games, since early childhood. These children grow up to glamorize the people who hold guns and kill innocent human beings. It is safe to say that media’s romanticized portrayal ...

The Importance of Implementing Stronger Background Check System

for Gun Sales in the U.S.

Vice President Joe BidenThe White House1600 Pennsylvania Ave., NWWashington, DC 20500

Dear Vice President Biden: In relation to the series of gun-related violence that have mostly occurred within school premises in the recent years, here is a report that analyzes the best way to protect people from being victims in active shooting incidents. I strongly recommend the strengthening of the background check system on gun sales be the priority in the seemingly endless and tortuous debate over the issue of gun legislation. This recommendation is based on the fact that strengthening the background check systems will ensure that only mentally and emotionally fit ...

Lab report #4 Section 214

Objective: Hook’s is a fundamental topic of physics and few divisions of engineering like Civil and Mechanical engineering. This law helps to perceive elastic property of a material. As per this principle of physics, force needed to compress or extend a spring by some amount of distance is proportional to the distance. If F is force and x is distance, then as per Hook's law, F = -k.X, where k is termed as stiffness and it is constant for a material rather the spring. Purpose of this experiment was to find spring constant (k).

Shobbit Shabhara’s case is not an isolated scenario. In fact, in most terror activities performed by individuals in the U.S., a similar pattern has been observed not only in the U.S. but in other parts of Europe where diverse cultures are common. The story of the Boston bombing where a pair of Chechen brothers from Dagestan developed a passion for terrorism after living in America for more than 10 years is just one example of how some individuals can be hateful even though the country has accepted them without hesitation. The United States was traditionally considered by social scientists ...

Bob Dylan’s song uses lyrics about to the divine in his song ‘With god on its side’. The title is also the main hook of the song as well demonstrating the importance of god and the divine. The use of a main hook line and title with the lyrics ‘God Bless the U.S.A’ is used by Greenwood in his song with equal importance. Both songs appeal to patriotism and the divine however the difference is that Dylan’s lyrics are satirical and don’t necessarily mean what they say directly. Greenwood’s language is not satirical and the listener ...

The opening line of Elizabeth Bishop's "The Fish" is a startling one, "I caught a tremendous fish" as the poet beams with pride at its size and her accomplishment. She clearly has the intent of keeping her catch alive as she continues, "and held him beside the boat/Half out of water, with my hook/fast in a corner of his mouth." She conveys the main parts of the scenery very well -- boat, fish, water, and hook. Her description of the setting is visual. Her diction relates a sense of ease as she continues: "He didn't fight./He hadn't fought at all." She depicts ...

Introduction

Perhaps no clause in the U.S. constitution has been so misconstrued and debated as the Second Amendment. In fact, even the Supreme Court could not make up their mind as to the true meaning of “A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed”. A decisive interpretation to this clause has been quite elusive. Since its ratification, only a few cases have found its way to the Supreme Court while the court’s decision has not helped clarify the matter more than being ...

Health Information Exchange In the U.S.

References 12

Introduction. According to the HIE directory “Health information exchange is the transmission of healthcare-related data among facilities, health information organizations and government agencies, according to national standards for interoperability, security and confidentiality.” After more than two decades of working to achieve effective and efficient health, this goal is still not fully actualized. The utilization of personal health information is still not fully exploited to support optimal care because the creation and storage of data is fragmented since information tends to be isolated within physician practices, hospitals, pharmacies, laboratories, or clinics. In an effort ...

- Introduction: The Second Amendment is crucial to the very nature of American democracy. - First point: The framers of the constitution wrote the constitution under the assumption that the most important governing document would not let government pass restrictions that would prevent free citizens from owning a firearm. - Second Point: Media coverage is often slanted on the issue, with different media fighting with each other instead of offering objective viewpoints on the issue. - Third Point: Self-defense, stopping government tyranny, protecting from foreign invasions are three reasons why the government should not pass laws infringing ...

The advertisement in context shows a girl in the foreground. She is held by a fishing hook. The picture is a bit appalling as one can see that the hook is tied to the mouth of the person in the picture and she is stuck. The picture makes it apparent that such a bondage to the fishing hook is really painful as it pulls the person forcibly and is distorting the facial structure and poise of the subject of the advertisement. She is painfully looking toward the place from where the hook is pulling her. The girl is shown in front of a white ...

Computer gamers are a group of people sharing a common interest in computer gaming. They are composed of both adolescents and adults.

Introduction

Gun control is to decide who can own which gun under what circumstances and not to ban. Gun control becomes the most debatable topic because of the increase in crime rate due to misuse of guns or firearms.

Nowadays, gun accidents and murders are common, and it induces many to welcome gun control laws and policies. Because they think, gun control may reduce the crime rate to some extent. Many people are supporting anti-gun control because they ...

Should the U.S. provide its citizens with universal access to health care?

Interestingly, the United States is the only industrialized and wealthy nation that is yet to provide free and universal healthcare to its citizens. By far, the US is the Earth’s richest nation.

Our daily existence is an uphill fight to acquire that which we need. Failure to do so means a threatened existence and imminent death.

Pro Gun laws 2nd amendment There are no two arguments that America loves its guns. The history of this great country is full of episodes of guns being used to defend not just lives, but also defend the values of this land – liberty and equality. The second amendment too acknowledges the need for gun possession for ensuring safety of its citizens. But in no where, in the law books of this country, it is written that, guns should be distributed without any checks. Easier gun accessibility would increase the chance of gun distribution among criminals and the ...

‘Surname’ In the wake of the recent Aurora and Denver shootings, the gun control vs. gun rights debate has gained steam once again. And renewed outcries for stricter norms for arms distribution have started occupying the front pages of every tabloid. The right wing, which comprises of the gun right supporters, advocate that each citizen of this nation is entitled to carry a gun, without any restrictions whatsoever. For example, the politics editor of the fox news, Chris Stirewalt, recently criticized an ad which called for more intense background check, saying that the ad was hilarious and did not ...

“BP Fuels America. America Fuels BP” is a 127-second disguised-as-informational/promotional clip launched by BP on May 20th, 2013 on Youtube. The clip is constructed as a series of rotating short animated sketches, which are accompanied and text information with facts and slogans and relaxing though spirited music. In my opinion, the commercial is a decent attempt to establish positive emotional connection between the company and its customers (which include virtually every adult in the U.S.) by appealing to the common American values and emphasizing company’s positive impact on the economy and the environment, with the latter being particular important given the ...

Abstract

Gun control is one of the most important political issues of our time. It has been shown time and time again from unbiased studies that the correlation between gun ownership per capita causes homicide rates by guns to increase. The issue is muddled though because of the powerful gun lobby and a media that lacks in its journalistic coverage on the issue. These factors combine to bring The United States to it’s current political stalemate on the issue. Since the tragic events of Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14, 2012, the issue of gun control has resurfaced ...

A Patient Centered Medical Home is an inventive medical program that aims at promoting and improving primary care for patients suffering from different illnesses. The program facilitates affiliations between patients and their personal health care providers (Stange, Nutting, Miller, Jaen, & Crabtree, 2010). The Patient Centered Medical Home plan incorporates the use of technology among other means to provide assurance to patients and their families. The fragmentation of New Mexico’s healthcare system is evidence that its citizens will be interested in accessing the Patient Centered Medical Home program, as an alternative source of health care. This is because the ...

Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting speech

Introduction With the alarmingly rising rates of gun violence all across the United States of America, debates on this problem are being held almost every day, making the issue profound for most of politicians, for most of people. And the latest tragedy of December 14th, 2012 has absolutely crossed the line of all that is left humane in this world, with lives of 20 innocent children being suddenly taken from them and them from their relatives.

Such a heinous crime definitely calls for a public statement from the officials, especially from the president himself.

For many in the United States, the words “Gun Control” is a four-letter word that immediately causes their preconceived notions to surface and prevents them from logically looking at the issue. The polarization of gun-control in this country has evolved to a point where neither party, even the one with the most control in Washington is able to put fourth any legislation regarding this issue. This essay analyzes this phenomenon with a view to the historical context behind gun control and laws that regulate gun ownership in the United States. Everyone who has engaged in conversation or argument on the issue ...
