Essays on Barbara

Upon listening to several personal interviews with people suffering from various illnesses, controversial issues regarding misconceptions and unfounded beliefs about patients suffering Alzheimer’s disease came to life. The disease, largely affecting people at their middle or old age, is characterised by loss of memory and a general deterioration of the mental abilities of individuals. The disease is possible to contain through care by qualified professionals. However, the interviews revealed varied misconceptions by the patients that were either totally unfounded or spread by an ignorant portion of the society. Part of the reason was that the disease causes the ...

In the article Too Poor to Make the News that appeared in The New York Times on the 13 of June, the author Barbara Ehrenreich predicts the emergence of a new class called ‘the Nouveau Poor’.

This is one form of Ethics that can directly be applied to professional and managerial situations. The reason for this is the ‘character-based’ nature of Virtue Ethics, wherein one evaluates an action in terms of specific ethical goals.

Stress and Quality of Life

Stress is the body's response to any action that disturbs the equilibrium or a stable state of health. This impact can be both emotional and physical. Nowadays people do not need to hunt for wild animals to feed themselves and do not need to run away from predators. The main idea is that stress is a widespread experience that negatively impacts the quality of life. Barbara Buddeberg-Fischer et al. (2010) wrote an article named "Chronic stress experience in young physicians: impact of person- and workplace-related factors." The authors had the objective to consider the impact of workplace factors on ...

INTRODUCTION

The United States and the then Soviet Socialist Republic, or USSR, had always had ideological differences underlining their relations. The US has always been the world’s champion of democratic ideals, while the USSR promoted the socialist ideology. In World War II, however, the two countries set aside their differences and formed an alliance with other countries to fight a common enemy: the Axis Powers that included Germany, Japan and Italy. The defeat of the Axis Powers resulted in power vacuums, which the two countries immediately tried to fill, thereby, resulting in a contest of superpowers. Suspicions of each ...

The Black Death was a plague that flowed over the continents of the world over a period of , but the major outbreak in Europe was a three year time span from 1347 to 13501; there were further resurgences of the epidemic with complete eradication not occurring until the 19th century. Had the initial devastation of demographics been isolated, Europe would probably have recovered fairly quickly. However, repeated surges of decimating epidemics continued to inflict damage for years. For example, England continued to suffer from large numbers of citizen deaths for approximately another 30 years. The population was depleted by ...

Analysis of the Documentary Food, Inc. through the Lens of Ethical Theories and Ideas

Some may wonder whether the food choice is an ethical issue. After all, we make these choices at least three times a day and our individual decisions influence the global industry of food growth, production and processing. As Jones, Cardinal and Hayward remind us, we exist in society and are connected to other people. This is why our choices, in our case, the food choices, affect other people, and their decisions influence us as well (2006, p. 3). Various theories of ethics propose different ways of viewing the problems of food production and consumption and seek solutions in distinct ...

Many a time have people heard about politicians who do plenty of talking. However, verbal rhetoric is only meaningful when backed by actual deeds aimed at the improvement of what politicians oversee, which is society and its welfare. The incumbent Senate President of New Jersey, Stephen Sweeney is one of such politicians who may be said to utilize his legislative authority to its limit. He has showed his aptitude in areas, such as education, property ownership, taxation, healthcare, and the protection of different social categories. Of course, as with other prominent politicians, however renowned, Sweeney has made some controversial ...

This is a story of Barbara, a quiet, dull woman, and her daughter Sophie. It is also a testimony of life in England during and after World War II. The story, however, is not a description of the tragic side of the war. That story has already been depicted so many times in numerous novels. On the contrary, this story is about how the war affected the daily lives of those who stayed at home, who were initially terrified of its effects but eventually became fatalistically used to it later. More importantly, it is the story of two generations ...

Governor Wilson ran full-page ads in the major California newspapers, the New York Times, and the Washington Post, to launch his anti-immigrant based re-election campaign. The ads were in the form of a letter to President Clinton, demanding that he halt illegal immigration to the State of California as well as reimburse the state for the cost of federally mandated health, education, welfare services, and the incarceration of undocumented immigrants. Remarkably, Governor Wilson was able to narrow the complex political and economic conditions besieging California. It proved to be a politically astute move. In doing so, Wilson obfuscated the ...

Barbara de Angelis “Secrets about Men every Woman should know” "There is nothing secret, which will not become known" - this old adage comes to mind when you become acquainted with the original and colorful book of famous American psychologist Barbara De Angelis. It is unlikely that the readers have ever held a manual on "How to handle a man”, such a mysterious and incomprehensible creature from another planet. At least, in such a way the author characterizes the stronger sex. Moreover, we must admit, not without reason. There is hardly a woman, even with the extensive experience of ...

Introduction

While the political avant-garde of modernist movement had a celebration of dissidence and proceeded to advocate a revolution of art and contemporary life, postmodern art delightfully exist in a world that shows the pluralism of atheistic manner and way of play. Art hardly ever functions on a critical level: the political prospect becomes separate from contemporary art functions. Postmodern art turns to represent not only the consumer society that we live but also a privileged commodity. In the 1960s, "committed" art had turned to be the pillar if artistic postmodernism. Gender issues, class, and race become central particularly following ...

Abstract

Women and veterans have long been ignored as far as combat is concerned. Health issues associated with women could easily be controlled, if the issue of women and combat was carefully legislated.

Therefore, this research paper aims at analyzing various constraints to organizational behavior that led to such legislation. Furthermore, analyzes of the best organizational behavior theory that can best enhance the performance of the organization, and hence eliminate cases of women and veterans facing ...

Racism is a belief that the race of one individual is superior to that of another person. During the era of the Civil Rights Movement, African Americans leaders viewed racism as a barrier to the progress of African Americans. This challenge of racism made them protest, preach, and take legal action to ensure that African Americans would be treated the same way the white people were treated. However, even after the Congress passed the Civil Right Act in the year of 1964, racism still exists today in the U.S. The United States’ schools are an example of institutions that ...

Irish Republican Army: Terror in Ireland

(Institute/College/University)

Regarded as the oldest terrorist group in Europe, the Irish Republican Army (IRA) was initially named as the Irish Republican Brotherhood (IRB) or the “Fenians” on the 15th of February 1858. Its earliest objectives engaged the liberation of the region from the “invading” British forces; in the course of time, the IRB forged a close collaboration with Sinn Fein (“Ourselves Alone”) after the latter’s establishment in 1905. The IRB’s radical wing carried numerous attacks including the “Easter Uprising” onslaught in 1916 under the name “Irish Republican Army.” After a cease fire was concluded in 1923, the ...

The paper also discusses how the characteristics exhibited at the diverse levels of social utilitarian engagements bringing out the relation to Freud’s view of the potential between the men and women independently as well as in social context. The paper also examines the Freud’s views in light of Marx’s discussion of the relation between the potential of men and women. In ...

Introduction

There are significant numbers of risks associated with the military service, and the personals deployed in the combat services have to endure these risks. Women in the military are a vulnerable group to these risks, and concerns are rife whether they should continue serving in the military, especially in the combat situation. Indeed, there are recorded incidences of medical complications to women who serve in the combat operations, and unless clear roadmaps are drawn, the situation might continue impinging harder on this generation. Indeed, the plight of women as combat soldiers and veterans predisposes them to an acute challenge, ...

Introduction

The scramble for Africa came as a result of Europeans desire to control resources found in Africa, by coming to Africa and colonizing them. Most Europeans used skewed ways in obtaining the resources as they wanted to be superior amongst themselves and in the event harm those they colonized. In attribution to the Scramble for Africa by the European, Africans reacted differently either diplomatically, by retaliation or using religious practices to retaliate against the European. They mostly depend on their leader's instructions into tackling the Europeans who by far had better ammunition and tactics in fighting the Africans. The ...

Introduction

Outreach programs led by a registered nurse are known to have a significant impact on the quality of care and health outcomes of patients (Toyce, et al. 2015). Nurses involved in post-discharge care such as home safety evaluation, medication compliance, and patient education have a positive impact on patient outcomes (Toyce, et al. 2015). Most patients do not follow instructions laid by the healthcare professional post-discharge which leads to non-compliance and readmission. This problem can be solved by a nurse-led outreach program that helps patients in various activities at home, thus improving health outcomes and reduced readmission rates. Nurses ...

Guns are one of the weapons that have been considered to be very dangerous over the years but with the advancements in technology, other weapons that are more dangerous have been invented. Several decades have passed since the invention of guns as weapons and as time has been passing, there has been advancement of guns in terms of make, size, and weight among others. Initially, the guns that were made were long and bulky and as such carrying them was difficult. Advancements in technology has seen the invention of hand held guns whose portability is not a factor of ...

You’re committed to finding your ideal life partner, so now you have to do more than talk about it. The time has come for action if it is ever to be more than an idea, a plan, an ambition, an objective. As Flannery put it, finding out how to choose someone you intend to spend your life with “can be scary to say the least, that is if you take commitment seriously.”

The conventional wisdom says that you should date as many prospective candidates as you can in the hope that at some stage you will recognize that ...

Question1

Coontz and Folbre cite that 1996 welfare legislation aims to promote marriage and some cities provide bonuses to couples (Risman 18). Some legislators request congress to divert project fund to marriage programs to increase the rates of marriage. The current administration increases the spending of marriage to ensure those languishing in poverty get married. Policymakers voice that failure to marry results in child poverty (Risman 22).Coontz and Folbre give evidence that marriage has social and economic benefits. The married couples ensure children benefit from a higher standard of living (Risman 23). This plan to reform the marriage fails to ...

Question 1

1. How can average nurses be involved in the political process?

Nursing is a profession that should involve many policy makers. The policy makers should not come from any other profession but nursing. Nurses have a lot of issues that they would like to address but fail to do so due to lack of a forum (Barbara Cherry, 2013).

History of Children’s Literature

In the time when there were no books and not everyone could write and read, mothers and grandmothers were able only to tell their children or grandchildren stories and fairy tales. Even when people became more literate, they did not begin to write down folklore for youngsters. It was Charles Perrault, who collected and published folk tales for children in 1697. However, speaking about folklore, people imagine more often not Charles Perrault, but the Brothers Grimm (Zipers, 2002). They are considered to be the first collectors of both folk and fairy tales. The reason for this is their ...

Abstract

The onset of immigration had long been a part of American history since its discovery in the 1600s and had shaped the country’s society and government throughout the years. In the early years, America had gladly opened its doors to the world without restrictions and some aided in the liberation of the country from English rule and into independence. However, as the years progressed, restrictions were imposed by the government due to the fear of these immigrants and eventually, due to the onset of illegal immigration. Reforms left and right were implemented to sustain America’s security, economy and ...

THE SECRET OR HIDDEN STORY WITHIN KATHERINE ANNE PORTER’S “THE JILTING OF GRANNY WEATHERALL”

According to Dictionary.com’s definition of the word ‘jilt’, it means “to reject or cast aside (a lover or sweetheart), especially abruptly or unfeelingly.” The website explained that the word ‘jilt’ originated from a word used in during the period of 1650-1660, which was another word for harlot. It adds that it is a “syncopated variant of jillet.” The Online Merriam-Webster Dictionary notes that the Scottish word ‘jillet’ means a “vexatiously flirtatious girl” or a wench. It is inferred from the meanings of the words ‘jillet’ and ‘jilt’ and the hidden narrative present within Porter’s ...

I think Amanda makes many good points. However, I think the reasons she states for the privilege objection being the most common objection is a little convoluted. I think the most common privilege asserted is the attorney client privilege if only strictly because the value of evidence the attorney has is very high. Essentially, the attorney has the keys to the case, and inadvertent releases of attorney communicates can have extremely damaging effects to a lawsuit. I think the medical privilege, or the confessor privilege is less because not every case will use those types of witnesses – however, nearly all ...

The book “Everything’s an argument with Readings” gives a reflection on almost all matters. The many ways of arranging arguments are presented fairly. Arguably there are arguments from almost all weighty topics; from culture, to advertisements to matters of friendship, food, religion, diversity and work. From the various arguments, I have chosen to consider just two chapters, and from these I have chosen to discuss just four items. The four items come from the first two chapters.

The US PATRIOT Act

The September 11 bombings in 2001 had created a massive influx of political and domestic ruling within the United States as terrorism had caught the most powerful nation off-guard. The Bush Administration had immediately mobilized the Congress and the Senate to redraft the entire US national security framework and enhance the country’s law enforcement agencies to prevent further attacks in the nation. One of the most notable policies set after the September 11 bombings is the US PATRIOT Act, proposed to support law enforcement agencies by enabling them to check records and devices of citizens and “suspected” terrorists ...

We live in an age of medicine filled with technological wonders – and difficulties. Andre and Velasquez (2010) state that “medical technology has given us the power to sustain the lives (or, some would say, prolong the deaths) of patients whose physical and mental capabilities cannot be restored, whose degenerating conditions cannot be reversed, and whose pain cannot be eliminated.” This poses a medical and ethical dilemma that has pitted us one against the other – should we allow the people in these positions to choose to die, or do we have a moral obligation to preserve life at all ...

On January 21, 2010 the U.S. Supreme Court decided that corporations had equal rights as individual citizens with regard to campaign contributions during political elections. This therefore implies that corporations also enjoy the protection of the First Amendment in the Bill of Rights (Freedom of Speech). The court case was Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission (Levin-Waldman, 2011, 178). The above reaction to the court decision is from the liberal side and I agree. I think that the decision was not good and not respectful of the rights of citizens. Democracy is no longer powerful when campaign elections can ...

1. Market Segmentation in Marketing

Lately, market segmentation has become one of the essential tools in marketing. Market segmentation has been found to be vital in separating markets in a manner that enhances profitability without necessarily spending on sales resource as well as systems that are required for one-to-one marketing, (Tapp, 2009). According to the market segmentation theory, it could be beneficial to market a product to potential customers only. Moreover, a target market to which the product will be marketed should be identified. Consequently, this context, the term “market segmentation” is used to refer to grouping of markets or rather, consumers having common characteristics which ...

“Don Quixote,” is a popular dance that excites people and brings happiness to sad souls. I find it quite interesting because it coordinates dances from a diversity of places and backgrounds. The dance takes place in a series of days and most of the time the audience comes out of the auditorium with jubilation and excitement. The dance is always successful because of the intense preparations by the gifted and well-experienced managers, choreographers, artistic directors, and artists. When all these people work in harmony, the audience feels the magnitude and the quality of the work produced. Looking at the choreography of ...

THE BULLY, THE BULLIED, AND THE BYSTANDER

Barbara Coloroso’s “The Bully, the Bullied, and the Bystander” revolves around her view of bullying as a drama. In said drama, each character usurps the given role and adopts behavioral changes while adapting to the ensuing performance. Coloroso centers her writing at possible ways of rewriting the lines given to each character to break the recurring violence. In her views, bullying entails different forms of imposing terror, intimidation, and torment while ensuring that others avoid the bullied person (Coloroso, 2010, p.102). Therefore, Coloroso (2010) believes that because children can learn how to intimidate (p.67), said behavior is ...

Parents bear many responsibilities every time a child is born. Their responsibilities are recognized not only as morally but also legally. The constitution recognizes the importance of children and outlines the roles and responsibilities of parents in raising their children.

The education curriculum is, however also a major influence on the way children are developed until they become adults. But, the major responsibility lies with the parents who due to their ...
