This film was released in 1996, and it exclusively discusses the controversial issue of abortion, which seeps in three distinct generations. The three segments of the film entail different generations and decades, but the setup for the entire story transpires in the same house. The first story is a widow, whose husband was killed on the battlefield (Stuart, 2008). Demi Moore is the woman in the ...

CRITICAL REVIEW OF THE ROLE OF CRISIS IN INDUCING POLICY CHANGE

Introduction Most nations make policies after they enter serious crisis. There is a general notion that a critical problem requires a critical solution. Thus, nations that came under Nazi or Japanese attack in the eve of the Second World War declared a state of emergency and made sweeping changes to their national policies. These changes had far-reaching impacts on the functioning of the arms of governments and the entire nation had to suspend various activities to implement the policies in response to the crises. However, after World War II, significant events have been considered as turning points in national ...

Introduction

For centuries they have been tormented, tortured and isolated, considered as outcast of the society. Witches, sorcerers, shamans or magical doctors have been misunderstood and burned at the steak for heresy, because their practices overpassed the human understanding. Through a combination of herbal mixes or psychedelic substances plus a thorough understanding of the human mind, the magical methods of these traditional practices have been analyzed across centuries (Haule 17). While in the modern societies the conventional science, medicine or human psychology are largely preferred, discoveries show that shamanic, witchery, sorcery or magical practices have pragmatic basis and scientific value ( ...

Managing Change

Introduction Organizational change has become a significant feature in today’s business environment. According to Burke (2008), the need for change and the demand for organizations to adapt and modify their operations have intensified. In fact, the most prevalent challenge in many organizations has been the need to cope with the rapid change. In a recent study conducted by leadershipIQ.com, a failure to manage the organizational change is one of the top reasons for termination of jobs for many managers (Murphy 2015, para 1). This failure is attributed to the managers’ inability to motivate employees, especially by not articulating ...

Introduction

Genome imprinting is the latest technique that has genetically modified the face of infertility; it is an epigenetic phenomenon through which the parental origin of a gene is determined based on its expression. 1 There are a vast number of genes in mammals that are marked with their parental origin, and the result of this phenomenon is a single parental allele. These marked genes are known as “imprinted.” They rely on the epigenetic machinery determining their parental identity and maintaining their origin-specific gene expression. There are 100 imprinted genes estimated in human and 200 ...

Abstract

This paper puts the legal and ethical issues of physician-assisted suicide in the context of the larger debate on privacy and the right to die, which can be divided into three constituent parts: (1) a patient’s constitutionally protected right to privacy in all matters involving end-of-life treatment decisions. So long as a patient has the mental capacity to make informed consent, the government does not have a legitimate interest to override end-of-life decisions. Critical to the analysis of a patient’s refusal of life-sustaining treatment is the burden of the state to prove a patient did not have ...

Immunogenic cell death: the role of SAGE

Immunogenic cell death: the role of SAGE

Introduction

Millions of cells are always being removed in the human body not only to regulate and coordinate the body’s biochemical pathways but also to keep the cells healthy. This particular systematic removal of cells occurs through a selective mechanism called cell death or apoptosis process. Apoptosis is not a new concept in the understanding of the biological workings of the body. This homeostatic death of body cells has been defined as a tolerogenic or a non-immunogenic event for many [1]. However, new discoveries have unearthed the existence of a different concept ...

Effective communication is overly important in the operation theatre. It is one of the ideal ways of ensuring that the operation theatre is operating efficiently. However, this has emerged to be a challenging task with the vastly changing healthcare system and the heightened complexities in patient care. Rather than having one individual conduct a surgery, modern healthcare requires that the joint efforts of the healthcare professionals in the operation theatre take play. Given this, communication is primal to coordinate the teamwork efforts. Healthcare professionals find this to be a challenge, and hence, leading to unintended morbidity (Weller et al., 2014). Research shows ...

1) According to Houston, Bridgmon and Parsons (2008) criminal policy shall refer to a combination of prevention and conservative deterrence programs. Majority of the policy-making that deals with criminal justice is pursuant to criminological theory, whether the authors of the policies are unaware of such fact or not. Some of the common causes of failed policies in criminal justice can be attributed to misinterpretation, fractional implementation, or illiteracy on criminological theories (Houston et al., 2008, p. 58). However, are some instances when there are problems that beset the implementation of policies such as when the law enforcement arrested mistaken individuals. ...

There are various methods that a therapist can use to help clients overcome compulsive habits such as smoking. Operant and aversive conditioning are some of the major approaches used. The following shows the steps and actions that a therapist can use. The primary assumption is that the client cooperates throughout the process. B.F. Skinner argued that pairing actions with appropriate reinforces would lead to the change of behavior (McLeod, 2015). The reinforcement can either be positive, neutral or negative. In this case, the therapist can wrap the cigarettes in packages that have explicit images of the effects of smoking to ...

Is the Experience of Happiness Gender Dependent? An Examination of Personality Traits, Happiness, and Gender

Abstract The concept of happiness is a complex one, which can be influenced by a plethora of variables, and according to some, can be subjective to the individual or even unattainable. Since personality traits are thought to influence the level of happiness one experience, the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire Abbreviated was used to assess the levels of neuroticism, extraversion, and psychoticism among participants, with the Oxford Happiness Questionnaire Short Form used to measure happiness. While females traditionally report higher levels of happiness, the sample in the current study did not mimic the typical results found by other researchers. However, the personality ...

Introduction

Allergy is an immune system disorder. Allergy or allergic reaction is a hypersensitivity to otherwise innocuous substances present in the environment. The allergic reaction is usually a rapid response; however, the sensitivity to certain allergens can be acquired over a period. It was previously called the type one hypersensitivity. It is characterized by an over activation of leucocytes, called the mast cells and the basophils following activation of immunoglobulin E (IgE) (Frigas, Gleich 1986). This activation of the basophiles and mast cells triggers an inflammatory response.

Pathophysiology of the allergic response

The type 1 hypersensitivity reaction is initiated when an allergen is introduced to the atopic individual, ...

Introduction

Today’s world is fast paced, demands more time for work, which leaves less time to follow the natural cycle of eating and drinking. It has led to consumption of quick bite items or “Junk food” that is tasty, sweet and fat, but low in balanced nutrition. As a result, the excess fat gets accumulated into various parts of the body. The chronic consumption of imbalanced nutrition causes “Obesity”. In 2011, approximately 20% of adults in the US suffer from obesity and are at risk for derived diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, inflammation, cardiovascular diseases and cancer.

DNA DAMAGE

1. Introduction The p53 gene is a tumor suppressor gene that is activated whenever a cell is subjected to cell damage. The p53 gene determines whether a cell should survive a damage or should undergo apoptosis. These decisions are regulated by posttranslational modifications. Phosphorylation of the serine 46 residue is one such modification that is relevant to this study. However, it is unclear why a Ser46 phosphorylated p53 favors apoptosis over survival (Feng et al. 2006, p. 2812; Taira et al. 2014, p. 717). Studies have shown that the elusive molecular mechanism of Ser46 phosphorylation of p53 induce apoptosis in the tumor ...

Operant Conditioning

For most of the time, the process of learning comes from the individual’s experience. People could change their behavior or improve themselves when they learn through various types of method (Walberg, 1984). Operant conditioning is one of the types of a learning process. It refers to the concept that inducing reinforcements could tend to continue a behavior while inducing punishment will stop it. It is a process in which the behavior is altered or modified by using positive reinforcements and punishments (Flora, 2004). For my example of the operant conditioning learning process, I will refer to the time of my early ...

Psychology

Description of Classical conditioning and operant conditioning Classical and operant conditioning are two learning theories extensively studied in psychology. Classical conditioning involves a response to a certain stimulus. Reflexive responses are brought under control of stimulus actions that usually herald the response (Klein & Mowrer, 2009). A certain event provokes a response. A once neutral stimulus is matched with an unconditioned stimulus. In classical conditioning, learning occurs through interactions with the environment and the environment shapes behavior thus feelings, thoughts, and emotions are assumed irrelevant in explaining a particular behavior. On the other hand, operant conditioning is learning that occurs when an ...

Various methods of studying classical conditioning

Classical conditioning is the simplest form of learning that occurs by developing a relation between the conditioned stimulus (CS) and unconditioned stimulus (UCS). It refers to a learning situation that can be traced to Ivan P. Pavlov’s (1849-1936) classical experiments. Classical conditioning is also called respondent conditioning or Pavlovian conditioning. In classical conditioning, an unconditioned response (UR) is evoked by a preceding neutral stimuli (CS). The neutral conditioned stimulus begins to induce a response. It indicates the basic concept of classical conditioning and the response induced, after learning, by the conditioned stimulus is called Conditioned response (CR).

Embryonic stem cell is a crucial factor in the developmental process of a multicellular organism. Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are derived at early stages during development and eventually give rise to all type of tissues and organs in an animal. The ES cell lines have three properties consisting of self-renewal, primary chimera formation and pluripotency [1]. Pluripotency, a key feature of ESCs, refers to the capacity of a cell to differentiate into several different types of tissues [2]. An array of cellular factors play important role in maintaining pluripotency and determining cell fate in the developmental pathway. Negative effects on these factors may ...

Reflection Paper: Study Review, Reaction, and Extension

Reflection Paper: Study Review, Reaction, and Extension The purpose of the study by Isen and Levin (1972) was to determine whether the positive affective state affects the subsequent helpfulness to other people. Previous researchers established that there is a significant relationship between success and helping, but subsequent studies found that the relationship between success and helping did not exist when there was no previous relationship between people or when helping was low-cost or unsolicited. Based on those studies, researchers proposed that a positive affective state may significantly determine helpfulness. However, a positive mood state was induced by reports of success ...

1.0 Background of Immune Tolerance

The immune system is the natural defense that combats disease causing agents in the body[ CITATION Gre02 \l 1033 ] through an intricate and coordinated interactions of many classes of proteins and cells[ CITATION Len00 \l 1033 ].The immune system has a potential to destroy the body cells but in all vertebrates the system is capable of distinguishing “self” from “non-self” molecules. That way the immune system eliminates pathogens and molecules that are a threat to the integrity of the organism without “self-destructing”[ CITATION Len00 \l 1033 ]. The human body has several mechanisms of either suppressing or eliminating autoreactive immune cells. Some ...
