Introduction

The media, which collectively refer to various forms of mass communication, are considered as a major source of public information. Their primary interests lie on gathering, evaluating, and distributing facts, which are of relevance to human society (Shoemaker & Reese, 1996, 15). There are, however, instances wherein the media is seen as an insinuator of conflict. Such conflict may arise when media and the information they possess has a potential to cause social unrest; scenarios wherein telling the truth will cause more harm than good. An unregulated mass media have two opposing sides; one that is detrimental ...

Psychology: Baddeley’s Working Memory

Introduction – Baddeley’s Working Memory Short term memory is an important aspect in human lives as it influences behavior and outcomes in daily lives in more ways than one – of which the role played in development of working memory is an important factor. Even though short term memory is considered to have significant differences from working memory, they are considered to be related by eminent psychologists. The most common factor behind this perspective is that both short term memory and working memory are involved in the storage of information temporarily in an individual. Working memory can be best described ...

Introduction

Fire in Goafs (mines) is considered to be a potential environmental and health risk throughout the globe. Although, plenty of conventional fire extinguishing methods has been proposed in the past, yet they contain side effects. The authors in propose a novel fire management system using expansion form for fighting with fire at the top of goafs. The system contains a jet device for adding foaming agent produced by foam generator. The foam is powered by water pressure and compressed gas that are intrinsically safe for operating in mines. The expansion foam propels itself upwards to extinguish fire at the ...

Inhalation of Corticosteroids and Asthma Management

Abstract The use of inhaled corticosteroids has emerged to be the most effective measure in the preventive treatment of asthma. Studies have successfully shown than the practice is characterized with various substantial health benefits. Even though this is true, few studies done reveal that its use has both benefits and the risks. In essence, clear knowledge of the efficiency of this practice has not been established. Its benefits and effects are evaluated with regard to the growth in human beings. This asserts the need of engaging in comprehensive inquiry to develop knowledge about this potentially beneficial practice. The purpose ...

Improvement in fire suppression systems has been the focus of not only the construction industry but also by fire risk management agencies (Liu and Kim, 1999, p.32). This is the reason why experimental and computational modeling studies were used by Liu and Kim (1999, p.32) to not only validate fire tests but to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of fire suppression systems. Computing for water spray characteristics includes ventilation conditions of the area, droplet size, and flux density (Liu and Kim, 1999, p.32). The purpose of which is to improve fire suppression strategies especially in different fire scenarios (Liu ...

Human trafficking is defined as the action of moving an individual or individuals from one geographical area to another without their consent.

Personal Reflection:

Abstract Cultural bias is a condition that can have great effect upon the education of a student. In Canada it has been seen that while immigrants are quite welcome and even encouraged to settle within the provinces, they are still seen as second-class in several ways. Two of those ways involve their place in education and their cultural identities. While Canada is renowned for its acceptance of many various races and peoples, it is not as well known for its quiet assimilation of its immigrants into the Canadian culture. Immigrants are not paid as much, do not always receive ...

Our modern world is full of implacable disparities. All living beings are classified into different categories. The animals, for example, will often be categorized into those who can run, feel coming danger and be able to escape it. The biggest diversity ever is probably that of the gender difference and gender stereotypes. No matter how much time passes, there will always exist that inevitable opposition between two sexes. Though stereotypical views of men and women have highly reduced in recent years, many people still believe that some of the gender-role stereotypes retained till the present day. The two genders ...

Terrorism as a global phenomenon is recognized to be the key problem of international security. However, at the national level, terrorism is not a new phenomenon. As a method of struggle, especially in conditions of limited resources of various opposition forces, the terrorist activity was quite common in world history. According to one theory, the concept of “terror” originated during the French revolution - Jacobin terror, which meant the public destruction of unwanted people to intimidate others. There are earlier mentions of such a method of waging of a war of aggression. The word “terror” means a state of ...

Looking back a couple of decades ago the Middle East used to be a region that was represented by a singular ruling aspect. The Islamic dynasty or kalifate as they are called in Arabic is the king that rules with justice in God’s name. Taking that into perspective the historic circumstances of the region countries are highly correlated with one another due to the region being socio-politically connected. After the European imperialism of the region the separation of regions within the Middle East to create individually controlled countries, a new reality to a once united region. Due to ...

Under these conditions, countries need an effective anti-terrorist policy and methods as a means of ensuring their own survival, public support, and international stability. Accordingly, new methods to combat terrorism began to be emerged and be developed, namely the use of new technologies such as satellites, information technology, surveillance, weaponry, Bio-metrics, finance, drones etc.

Satellites

It is worth noting a significant contribution of satellite systems to the resolution of the intelligence, communication, navigation and meteorological problems. Cosmic intelligence systems were used in order to provide US troops with timely and reliable data on the grouping of the Islamic movement of ...

Introduction

Karen Warren coined the term “Ecofeminism” in explaining the logic of domination where the notion of people’s control over nature as a whole is wrong and for the same reason that the subordination of women to the will of men is also wrong. According to argument, feminists should object to the idea domination because subordination of women and domination over nature both represents the logic of domination. On the other hand, the asserted claim of twin domination encompasses several issues. In this discussion, Warren’s logic of domination and the concept of ecofeminism will be examined by explaining ...

Introduction

Research in lung cancer treatment can save lives and improve a patient’s quality of life. There are three main types of lung cancer: Non-small cell, small cell, and lung carcinoid cancer. Non-small cell lung cancer, such as Squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, and large cell carcinoma make up about 85% of all lung cancers (Molina, Yang, Cassivi, Schild, & Adjei, 2008). Both environmental and genetic factors are significant in the cause of lung cancer. Chronic exposure to carcinogens, ionizing radiation, and viral infections can lead to alterations of the DNA in tissue lining the bronchial epithelium of the lungs. Furthermore, ...

Description of the best fire detection equipment to be installed in the Electrical Switchgear Room, Flammable Liquids Room and the Office. The best fire detection system to be installed in the Electrical Switchgear Room is the photoelectric smoke detector (FM Global, 2). This is because cables which are necessary in the Electrical Switchgear Room are mostly insulated with combustible materials which would invariably generate smoke as they burn in the event of a fire (FM Global 1). This type of smoke from such smoldering fires (characteristic of burning plastic/insulating) according to the NFPA can most effectively be detected by ...

Summary: The interaction between the limbic system and the subcortical dopaminergic system, is important in the experience of reward by the individual. The hypothesis in the present study is that, increased excitability of the medial prefrontal cortex, exerts a suppressive effect on the interaction between subcortical dopaminergic system and the limbic striatum structures (Ferenczi et al.). Lack of a reward seeking behavior is seen in patients with depression and MRI studies in these subjects have identified increased excitability of the medial prefrontal cortex. This finding was suggested as a rationale for the study. The experiments were designed to demonstrate ...

The researcher employed a 2 ×6 experimental design; it involved a randomized sample of 49 university students. Using web experiment software, Interactive Sensation Laboratory Exercise (ISLE), the researcher had students identifying letter S as the first target and letter T as the second target ...

A man has created the state, and the state has created a citizen. As we all know, the state authority has to control its citizens. Of course, managing people is not an easy task. It does not matter whether it is one person or a large mass of people, their management is always based on the political violence, to a lesser extent, on the respect, which was generated by admiration. Authority, in fact, is the violence, but not obvious. Humans can admire the power and respect it, but without force and violence there is no any authority. One political ...

Question One

Karen Warren has established a connection between the environmental domination by humans and the subordination of women by stating that domination is in fact connected historically, symbolically and theoretically. According to ecofeminism culture propagated in the study carried out by Warren, man has over the century’s exerted undue dominance over the female species in many cultures in the same manner that they have dominated over nature in all its forms. The notion of ecological feminism which seeks to show that the domination, suppression and relative exploitation of women and the environment all stem out of the same need ...

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 ...

Police tactics are methods used to apprehend, target harden, or to suppress. The apprehension tactic is utilized when a person or “subject is being identified or captured. Generally identifying or capturing factors are dependent on geographical location, or temporal characteristics (Bruce, 2008). The target hardening tactic is used to the pattern of a perpetrator or the role that victim plays in a particular crime. Examples of target hardening tactics are clued surveillance cameras, alarms, etc. The last type of police tactic is suppression. Suppression tactics are predominantly used to elicit fear into the subject without the intention of capturing ...

Vallejo’s poems had in their expressions of personal emotions shown by use of imagery that at first glance seems like tongue in cheek, but when looked into more carefully, one realizes the meaningful word play by Vallejo (Poetry Foundation, online). To emphasize the surreal effects of the themes, this paper shall compare four of his poems, including Trilce XXVIII, the Black Heralds, Spain, Let This Cup Pass from Me, and Black Stone on a White Stone. The poetry of The Black Heralds is a literary example of indigenism and was seen to only possessing inadequate value and only ...

Repression is a term that is usually used by psychoanalysts to refer to suppression or avoidance of psychologically painful incidences. Despite its frequent use, psychoanalysts, as well as nonpsychoanalysts, use the term in reference to the various context that involves psychogenic amnesia or traumatic memory loss. In this paper, the use of the term by Sigmund Freud and Jennifer Freyd is examined to illustrate similarities as well as the differences in the utilization of the term. Freud uses repression in the illustration of psychoanalysis technique of his patients who presented neurological pathology after psychologically traumatizing events. Usually, Freud cases ...

The struggle for decolonization depicts incidences where groups engaged each other in armed struggle. The colonizers and those under the colonialism engaged in wars that led to atrocities against civilians that later led to demonstrations and riots from nationalists and civil societies. However, a major difference arises in that the movies were produced to show the events that occurred during the armed struggles. The two most popular movies include the Lawrence of Arabia and Battle of Algiers which show variation in the context in which each occurred. While Battle of Algiers paints a more precise picture of the real ...

Immunogenic Cell Death: The Role of RAGE

Introduction Millions of cells are always being removed in the human bodyin order to regulate biological pathways and keep cells healthy through a particular mechanism called cell death or apoptosis. Through apoptosis, such homeostatic death of cells has been defined as a tolerogenic or a non-immunogenic event for many years [1]. However, during the past few years, scientists have discovered the occurrence of a different concept of cell death – immunogenic cell death (ICD), where the death of a cell stimulates a response from the immune system against antigens of a dead cell, and this mechanism of cell death may ...

One of the most significant issues in the U.S. today is the systemic policies that have led to the U.S. having the largest prison population in the world. A disproportionate number of socioeconomically marginalized citizens are incarcerated and subjected to discriminatory practices by law enforcement and the justice department. The consequences are wide-reaching and inseparable, cutting across political, social, and cultural lines. In order to identify the roots of these interconnected phenomena, one needs to both understand the historical struggle of marginalized groups in the U.S. as well as follow the money. Socioeconomic discrimination, voter suppression, for-profit policing practices, ...

1. The presentation recommends 5 core strategies for gang interventions. Based on the theories studied in Modules 2, 3 and 4,) Chapters 3, 4, and 7 in your text book) which theory do you believe is best represented in these strategies? Why?

I think that social intervention is the best core strategy because it takes care of the individual needs of gang youth. Tailoring an intervention program to the needs of individuals rather than a group is the most effective approach to solving a crime issue. Unlike the other four strategies, social intervention ensures that a gang youth re-enters the social community ...

Recently, there has been a paradigm shift, mostly in western countries, from an emphasis on crime prevention, to punishment. According to Fowler (2008), this trend is expected to accelerate steadily, at least in the United States. For instance, with respect to juvenile crime, there has been a frequent call for heightened outlays on crime detection and law enforcement, and for increased penalties for criminal as well as other anti-social behaviour (Meyers, 2010). This paper seeks to review the psychological research evidence on the effectiveness of punishment, and propose alternatives to the current trends.

Hollin (2008) describes punishment as the response-contingent use ...

I believe that this question is important for understanding the essence of crimes. Their background and main driving forces allow us to find a proper way to prevent them, as well as decrease the number of recidivism incidences. I believe that the majority of crime is violent in nature, but I interpret violence in this case in somewhat other manner, than it is commonly understood. To explain this statement, I will describe what violence is in my point of view, why it can become the source of crimes and how this knowledge can be used to change the current situation.

I. Introduction There several reasons why one would want to prevent juveniles from being delinquents or from pursuing actions that would lead them to continue to delve into delinquent behavior. One of the most obtrusive reasons for doing such is that delinquency holds the youth at risk. These risks are for school drop outs, drug use and dependency, further injury, incarceration, adult criminality and early pregnancy (Greenwood, 186). Protecting the youth from such delinquent acts saves them from wasting their lives. Of course, many other reasons arise as well. As Greenwood (186), narrates, most of the adult ...

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, ...

In life, human beings experience traumatic events; whether accidents, death or any other trauma, such occurrences harm the person’s psychological well-being. In some cases, people are unable to deal with the aftermath of such occurrences; they thus deals with it by pushing it out of consciousness into the sub-conscious. Instead of dealing with the problem, they ignore it through psychological processes; this research paper focuses on the analysis of the process. It is a process known as repression (Loftus, 1993). Repression is a very general concept in the field of psychology researched by many scholars through the years. Psychologists ...

Immunology Disorders

The immune system is responsible for protecting the body from various parasites, bacteria, virus etc. that try to destabilize the homeostasis. Naturally, the immune system is considered one of the most important mechanisms that help us recuperate from diseases. When the immune system malfunctions and starts destroying self-cells, it leads to certain disorders. In other circumstances, the immune system may be suppressed and fail to kill disease causing cells. Here we will discuss a few disorders of the immune system.

HYPERSENSITIVITY TYPE I

Allergy or hypersensitivity type I is also known as allergic reaction or intolerance, in this scenario the immune system creates a ...

The decrease in world’s petroleum and oil supply has led the nations to look for alternate sources of energy. As a result of this short-supply, unconventional gas reserves are gaining importance as alternative source of crude oil, where the unconventional gas reserves are estimated to contribute to 45% of the US gas production by the year 2035. Large-scale extraction of unconventional natural gas has resulted in the development of new and untested extraction technology such as hydraulic fracturing or hydrofracking, which is expected to develop rapidly in the next few decades near human settlements and pose a health hazard (Adgate, ...

Introduction:

Criminological theories attempt to define crime and shed light on the criminal justice system. Moreover, the theories further shed light into the intrinsic nature of the crime and its offender, and thus enhancing the rationale in devising the preventive measures (Tibet & Craig 107). Theories envelop the making and the contravention of the law, criminal and deviant conduct, and criminal activity patterns. The principal sociological crime theories consider the immediate social environment, such as the family unit, local community, peer groups, and learning institutions. The theories explain why some individuals have higher inclination to crime unlike others (Black 89). ...
