The poster provides detailed information of the two kinds of stroke i.e. Ischemic and hemorrhagic. Hemorrhagic stroke occurs as a result of blood vessels weakening and eventually bursting while ischemia occurs when a blood vessel gets clogged. The Ischemic stroke will occur when the blood vessel becomes quite narrow as a result of fat deposition. The narrowing of the vessel makes it difficult for blood to flow freely to the brains. Normally, Ischemic attacks are temporary and minor. However, in extreme cases, they cause major strokes that may leave the client hospitalized or even dead (Alway& Cole, 2009). There ...

Question One

Transportation demand is a situation that ensues when there is a significant number of people who require to use the transport sector when the resources are inadequate. The need for transportation is not resultant from the direct benefits, but rather from the ripple effects that come with a sustainable transport sector. For example, shippers transporting cargo reap economic benefits from the transportation sector because the goods sell for substantial gains. Moreover, carriers who deal mostly in the carriage of people obtain tangible benefits from the transportation cost of facilitating the movement of crew members. Inelastic demands are those where ...

The Mars Climate Orbiter: A Multimillion Dollar Mistake

The Story Grossman (1999) addresses the incident of NASA’s Mars Climate Orbiter in her article named “Metric Math Mistake Muffed Mars Meteorology Mission”. She explains how a simple unit conversion mistake caused the Orbiter to burn up in the Martian atmosphere. The vessel costed NASA a whopping $125 million when it vanished into the Martian atmosphere. The problem, later identified by a NASA review board, owed to a software glitch. The software was used to calculate the thrust in “pounds of force” while the other software took the input in “newtons”. This happened due to the fact that ...

The human body and the way in which it operates is a wonder in itself, but there are many more wondrous systems which keep this body going in the way that it does. One such system is the circulatory system which is exclusively responsible for the distribution of blood towards all of the organs scattered within the body. There are many organs and a scattered network of blood vessels which all come together to get this system up and running, and any hitch in any one of these individual blood carriers could become tedious and sometimes even chronic for ...

Define and discuss time and space utility

Products must be transported from the place where they are produced to the place where customers demand it to be delivered. The value-add that the product gains due to its transport is called space utility. The time utility is the length of time before or between the product deliveries, which consists of mostly storage and inventory time. When the organizations are able to deliver the goods at a time they are needed, then their time utility increases.

Archeology and Art History

It is vital to note that Max Loehr was a distinguished art historian, especially of Chinese art. His 1953 paper was specifically focused on the historical study of Chinese bronzes. The study reflected on the fact that archeology pointed out the fact that the style of an object is not its property. What Robert Bagley set out to do in his book, Max Loehr and the Study of Chinese Bronzes: Style and Classification in the History of Art, was to point out to all art historians, that style and classification is of great concern to all ...

The most beautiful and fascinating artistic aspect of the Chinese ritual objects was the use of bronze. In ancient times, vessels were made to be used for drinks and foods and came in different forms. Some of the containers had accents of rounded and molded handles which rest on well-created bases. Bronze vessels have a well-designed covering which depicts mythical images of mostly animals (Chang, p. 529). Since the beginning of the millennia, they left these vessels with shades of green. There was an addition of hues that helped in bringing a visual display of the art. In the ...

Introduction

Upholding ethical principles is essential to the maintenance of peace in any community. Precisely, the nature of people’s conduct in any organization is essential to the success of the institution. As such, people can determine how ethical or unethical we are by assessing our behaviours. According to Guerrette, Ethics is the philosophical study of the principles that govern the conduct of people in society [1]. Our actions can, therefore, be said to be ethical if they are praiseworthy and unethical if they are blameable. Ethics, therefore, tries to make a distinction between what is right and wrong. This ...

When considering culture, one does not typically think of law. However, if one thinks hard, they can see how law is in the background of many discussions of culture. This creates a very complex question within both modern and ancient society as to what the line has been or is between law and culture and whether law defines culture or culture defines law? This question is surely one that cannot be easily answered throughout the ages due to the aspects of both law culture that tend to go hand in hand and play off of each other. In fact, ...
