Essays on Shock

The Exorcist is a 1973 horror film, directed by William Friedkin. A potent adaptation of William Peter Blatty’s novel, The Exorcist tells the story of a young girl who is possessed by a demon. The film caused a great deal of controversy when it was released as many people felt that the violence, blasphemy and young protagonist were inappropriate and damaging for audiences and for society. Admittedly, the film does not have the same shock value today as it did in 1973, partly because the cinematography and special affects now look dated and unrealistic, and partly because many ...

One of the predominant elements of the 2016 Presidential election in the United States was the ways in which the American press underestimated the appeal that Donald J. Trump had, first among Republican voters in the primaries and then among American voters in the general election. National polling had the Democratic nominee, leading Trump by a significant enough percentage for the media to assume that Clinton would end up winning the election. Despite winning the popular vote, though, she failed to carry several states that had voted Democrat for more than three decades, and those electoral votes gave the ...

In the book, Edward Weisband and Courtney Thomas have discussed political culture, its application as well as the different aspects related to it. According to the authors, a political culture refers to all the factors that enable the thriving of a particular political system. In fact, the practices, the values, the beliefs, and the shared systems, all contribute to the formation of a political system that defines an administration. In as much as most people believe that such a culture is naturally formed, this notion is not true because it takes many years to develop fully and take strong ...

Abstract

Organizations select operating systems for use in their workstations and servers depending on their preference. In my organization, the preferred operating system is Linux. However, vendors to supply the system and associated support have not been determined. As such, the paper aims at considering different factors of the individual vendors such as reliability, performance, availability of training, and availability of support. Moreover, aspects such as pricing and suitability in different work environments will be considered since each organization is expected to have its advantages and disadvantages. Extensive research from the literature will be conducted to ensure that a clear ...

Abstract

This paper deals with two different models of stress theory; namely the response based model of stress which is known as the General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS) and the Transactional model of stress known as the interaction theory.

This paper discusses these theories in detail along with the frameworks of coping with stress and its impacts on the subject as developed by these theories. First responders are personnel of different departments and institutions that respond to emergency events and situations to ...

Part 1: Active Shooters

There has been an increase in the number of shootings in hospitals as well as other institutions around the country (Hospital Employee Health, 2013). The increase in these cases has made institutions to start preparing their employees on how to react if such a shooting occurred in their organization. There are similarities in some of the hospital shooting cases. In St. Vincent’s Hospital, the shooting was unpredictable and could not be prevented. This was similar to the case of the Western Psychiatric Institute shooting in Pittsburgh (Thomas, 2012). The Joint Commission agrees that there has been an increase ...

Introduction

On June 23, 2016, UK held a referendum in which 52% of the voters chose to leave the European Union (EU) against 48% who chose to stay (Taub, 2016). The Brexit presents a massive change. Without a doubt, the Brexit will strongly influence how project managers will run their projects. Hillary and Allen (2016) observe that all sectors and organization will have to review the risks and opportunities that will emanate from Brexit. Unfortunately, project managers, like everyone else, have limited information that would help them to assess the risks and opportunities associated with the Brexit. Notwithstanding the lack ...

In this paper, we will explore the psychological impacts of two human-made disasters. One that happened during the First World War, and the other one is a recent terrorist attack in Paris, in 2015. The Lusitania Disaster was an attack from the German army to a British ship liner coming from New York to Liverpool, UK. The terrorist attack in Paris however was not a war attack, so people were not expecting anything as such. However, it can be argued that we are on a war today, that begun by several attacks of radical Islamic groups against the West. ...

INTRODUCTION

There are some events in the course of the world’s growth and development that seem likely to occur; people will experience conflict, social unrest, possible warfare and any number of natural disasters that can devastate communities all across the globe. In the modern era one of the most terrifying of occurrences are terrorist attacks. Terrorist threats can exist unnoticed; no one knows when they may occur and what public place, government buildings or function that may be targeted. This makes terrorist attacks a huge source of stress, fear and shock for the people and for the governments involved. ...

The current Russian-Ukrainian war is the largest armed conflict in Europe since World War II. The front line where active fighting is taking place is over 1000 miles, and general losses amount to hundreds of thousands. No wonder the war between one of the world’s largest fossil fuel providers (Russia) and one of the world’s leading agriculture countries (Ukraine) has had global impacts in multiple economic areas. If you need to develop a Ukraine vs Russia war essay regarding this topic, the example paper below will make a great starting point for your research. In case you, for some ...

Migratory History It is said that ethnic Chinese first appeared on the western shores of North America during the period of the Spanish colonial rule in the Philippines, which is about between 1521 to 1815. They had accepted commissions as being businessmen, sailors and fishermen on the Spanish galleons that traversed the Pacific Ocean between the Philippines and Mexico (Brownstone, 2). Several numbers of ethnic Chinese were able to reach California as this state was still the territory of Mexico until 1848. Future expeditions to Vancouver by John Meares, a British fur trader, brought more Chinese into Vancouver around ...

Question 1: Pathophysiology of Mr. Jensen’s post-operative hypovolemia

Hypovolemia is a surgical condition that indicates the rapid fluid loss that may result in organ failures. The outcomes of the hypovolemia are mostly due to insufficient circulating volume or scarce perfusion. Often hypovolemia is secondary to hemorrhage the reason of which includes severe internal or external blood loss and GI, thoracic and abdominal bleeding maladies (Devitt, 2001). Hypovolemia involves significant fluid loss other than blood that can be further accompanied by refractory gastroenteritis and widespread burns. Hypovolemia may develop in post-surgical incidence, bone fracture, due to ...

Margaret Nagle’s “The Good Lie” focuses on the experiences of a group of Sudanese refugees, namely Mamere (Arnold Oceng), Paul (Emmanuel Jar), Jeremiah (Ger Duany) and Abital (Kuoth Wiel) as they try to adapt to life in the United States of America. The film is extremely interesting because it is divided in 2 parts, the first part tracking the characters’ childhood struggle for survival during the Second Sudanese Civil War, and life in the Refugee Camp, while the second part focuses on the problems of adapting to an entirely new culture, with different values and worldview. The strong ...

Q1: Prioritizing patient care will help to complete nurse’s shift duties without any adverse patient complication. Prioritizing will help to plan out the day and in managing the cases in the most effective way (Alfaro-LeFevre 2014). The best path to plan care for the patient with different medical and surgical priorities is to set timed objectives and meet the discharge goals based on the urgency of the medical or surgical condition. The handover from the staff of the previous shift provided the information for 4 patients, of which Lucy’s condition is more of an emergency that will ...

There are many different types of virus and bacteria that can have a negative effect on the human body; some are internal, while others are external. One such bacterium is Staphylococcus, which leads to infection in many human beings. The Staphylococcus bacteria is responsible for a number of different types of infections, they are described as being spheroid shaped, gram-stain positive sometimes seen in singular, in pairs, or very often in clusters; this is often contributed to being described as a bunch of grapes (Davis 1). Human beings are most susceptible to two specific strains, staphylococcus epidermidis and staphylococcus ...

Culture shock is described as the feeling of abandonment experienced by an individual, who has been exposed abruptly to a new or unfamiliar way of life. However, due to the rapid increase in immigrants in various countries, the concept of culture shock has been replaced by the concept cultural unrest. Cultural unrest is described as a situation where two cultures live together, but their togetherness is triggered by acceptance that has occurred due to shared concern, resentment, and indifference (Moufakkir 324). Four stages are involved in the cultural unrest. The first one is the stage of high expectations while ...

How does a firm’s corporate strategy affect its operation management?

Corporate strategy, by definition, views the organization as a complete system which is known to be formulated of departments or functions which are interconnected and dependent on each other in such a manner that they aim to achieve the ultimate corporate goals (Krajewski & Ritzman, 2005). In other words, we can say that corporate strategy is a bigger picture which shows how inter-linkage about various departments or functions can result in the attainment of final aims and objectives. Operations management or operation strategy basically focuses on ensuring that the small tasks are carried out effectively which ultimately makes the achievement ...

Culture and Adaptation: Anthropology is the study of human culture and language of different groups of people over a period of time. This helps us to identify how human culture adapted to changing needs and environmental changes. While culture refers to the sum of belief, practices, tradition, worldview, language, religion, food, clothing and social practices; adaptation refers to the gradual changes incorporated into the culture, so as to help survival in a changing environment. Certain cultural traits are universal to all humans and these traits help to differentiate humans from members of other related species like humans. For example, ...

The blood requires a balance between alkaline as well as acid components to function appropriately. Such a balance is referred as acid-base balance. The lungs, as well as kidneys, function to maintain such balance. Whatever variation causes acid-base imbalance. High levels of acid are referred as acidosis, and high alkaline is referred as alkalosis. Metabolic acidosis, as well as alkalosis, results from kidneys problem. Respiratory alkalosis and acidosis occur because of lungs' problem (Schrier 162). The levels or concentrations of acid or alkaline are determined on a scale of pH. Acidity makes pH levels fall, and alkaline condition makes ...

In an article entitled, “One-Percent Jokes and Plutocrats in Drag: What I Saw When I Crashed a Wall Street Secret Society,” Kevin Roose reports on his experience of infiltrating a party for members of Kappa Beta Phi, “a secret Wall Street fraternity” (Roose, 2014). In writing a book about young Wall Street executives, the author was curious as to the behavior of older, successful Wall Street executives. When he learned of the exclusive fraternity for Wall Street executives, Kappa Beta Phi, he thought that he'd like to visit one of its meetings as a part of his research. This ...

Abstract

There is a growing medical challenge within the confines of medical service facilities that if not addressed may lead to unnecessary loss of life. There has been a growing rate of sepsis infections, especially those who are admitted in the hospital. It is a baffling problem as one would image that the hospital is the last place where one’s sickness gets worse.

As ...

Doing a research paper in criminal law or legal matters involve a process that is distinct due to the nature of the subject. One feature that is unique in the research process is the use and consultation of legal journals and references that are written for people who are practicing the law. These materials are written in the language that are exclusively comprehensible among those who are oriented with the body of constitutions, often perceived as jargon. Hence, the familiarity with terminologies and construction of the grammar being used among the text are apparent among the scholars of the ...

The book Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison provides a broad perspective over which a number of issues can be understood.

The speaker aids the audience’s understanding of the psychological growth and moral well-being of his personal development. The nameless narrator tells his life story effectively making it easier to establish the appropriate cognitive progress of the individual. In general, the speaker transforms from a naïve African-American young man, growing up in a ...

Obesity may be defined as the condition where an individual has more fat in his body more than the stipulated amount. It has been realized to have various effects on the individual’s health, such as diabetes and heart failures. This issue was mainly believed to be prominent amongst the older members of the society, however, over the years, the issue of obesity has been realized to be a disease that is also affecting the children in the society.

It needs to be taken into account that literature goes on to reflect the true nature of the society of this world. The stalwart literary artists have for long engaged in portraying the dynamics of the interpersonal relationships in their works, and the theme of domination and its subsequent subversion has come to find commonality in the works of many literary artists of the world. If one closely introspects on some specific works, it would be easier to gauge how the thematic content of domination has been portrayed in the literary texts over the span of the history of ...

Trauma / children trauma of separation Trauma refers to an emotional shock or wound often having long-lasting effects. This shock or wound could be caused by any accident, violence, or other such incidents, especially in the childhood, when a child feels completely helpless (Kaduson & Schaefer, 2012). Usually, trauma in the childhood is of great impact as the child is unable to use ordinary coping and defensive processes while facing any intolerable danger, anxiety, or instinctual arousal. These situations have such an overwhelming nature that they may result in an everlasting kind of impact on the mind ...

Introduction

The world of art has always been driven by an immortal tradition where the sole artist worked as the creative force and his relationship with the art was way more influential than the traditional author-art relation. In the case of films, the concept of the ‘Auteur’ explains one of the most significant styles of cinematic direction in which the director becomes too dominant over the entire film that he is being ranked as the author for the film. Some directors in the world cinema are reckoned to have such a strong authorial presence in their films that is very ...

Human beings experience moments of grief. The grief process involves seven main stages where an individual is required to pass through to achieve happiness and acceptance. The same situation happened to Demeter when her daughter Persephone was kidnapped.

This paper will discuss the seven stages of grief in relation to Demeter’s case as indicated below:

Shock and disbelief- A person may be caught unawares of the situation thereby causing shock. When Demeter hears Persephone scream, she is distraught and tries to go after her to no avail. Denial- One may fail to accept the situation as it is, doubting the reality of the issue. Demeter, however, does not experience denial but takes up a frantic search ...

I have not always wanted to be a nurse; however, the work of the humanitarian nurses that intervened during the earthquake that befell Haiti on January 12, 2010, inspired me to pursue this rewarding career. The nurses, most of them sponsored by global health organizations worked tirelessly to save the lives of those that had been injured and to counsel those that were in shock after losing loved ones in the disaster. I still recall the devastation that ensued in the immediate aftermath. More than 200,000 people had lost their lives and 300,000 more injured (IASC, 2010). ...

Action Plan using Maslow’s Theory The world has a myriad of cultures and people that share their own set of cultural values and belief systems. These values become their cultural norms and are preserved in their day to day actions and routine. If a person does not carry the firsthand knowledge of another person’s cultural beliefs and norms, then they are bound to follow hearsay and believe whatever stereotypes are associated with them. However looking at the factual display of matters, many cultures have certain rites and traditions which cannot be changed or tampered with. ...

It is a well-known fact that studying abroad has a lot of advantages nowadays. First, it helps person to expand and to grow his/her personality and to take it to the next development level. For instance, living apart from a family and ordinary environment bring new challenges for a student. Thus, such difficulties force him/her to become more inventive, stronger, smarter, and more independent person. In addition, due to the fact that student has to pay a lot of bills without any additional help, he/she learn how to manage finance more effective than it was before this trip. Besides, ...

Abstract

Do the imbalances in current accounts still matter in today’s deep global financial markets that exhibit two-way gross economic flows that dwarf the new outcomes provided by current accounts? Contrasting the adult perception of the world and complete markets, extreme current account imbalances indicate severe financial and macroeconomic stresses, particularly as was the case in the mid-2000s. The increasingly massive valuation differences in nations’ net global investment standards and positions, as well as risk allocations, cannot be relied upon to offset the variations in regional wealth systematically as implied in the current accounts. The same conditions that warrant ...

One of the oldest sports is considered a fistfight. Even in ancient history in the era of the ancient Greeks during the Olympics athletes competed in the pankration, which is how they called their fist fighting competitions. Fist fights in a modern understanding are mixed martial arts or MMA (Mix Martial Arts), and not boxing, as the two are often confused.

Slide 2

Since the antique times MMA lost its glory and popularity. Is place was taken by what e now perceive a traditional boxing, kick-boxing, judo, taekwondo, and other types of martial arts. For a long time MMA was in ...

Challenges of Multiculturalism

In a world with a large number of issues undergoing the complicated process of resolving like racial and gender discrimination, it is of no wonder that heated debates and arguments have been happening in all corners of the society. Philosophers, sociologists and even functionalists have mustered up enough grounds to curiously question the origins and possible answers to these arguments. Moralists like the famous teacher-student duo, Socrates and Plato, have stimulated the intelligent minds of the people regarding the morals and virtues concerning the significance of the challenges that discrimination presents. Sociologists like Karl Marx and Max Weber have ...

Advantages and Disadvantages of Magnetic, Optical, and Solid State Storage Devices

Magnetic storage is the oldest storage technology and is used in hard disks that are the primary storage device in most computers. The storage devices store data by assigning a magnetic charge to metal that is then processed and converted into ones and zeros by a read head (Burd, 2010). Magnetic storage devices have the advantages of having very large storage capacities, and very fast access to data because they allow direct random access to any part of the device. However, the devices have slow transfer rates, especially when writing. Durability is also an issue with the devices as ...

Children with challenging behavior might pose a danger to themselves or to others. You might have been informed about the challenge of aggressive behavior and the resulting injuries such as lacerations on the students and broken fingers of the teachers as well as the problem of student elopement. There is a proposal to use electric shock devices as an aversion and behavior control technique. This technique is used in other schools in different states. This technique has also gained interest from both side of the argument divide. In advising on the use of the electric shock device an aversion ...

Summary of Martin Barker’s Research

The main subject of Martin Barker’s Research is to assess audience perceptions of sexual violence (with a focus on rape) when included in films. In a BBFC report on the research, it is noted that Barker assesses natural audiences (that is, those that had chosen to see the films themselves) and their response to five films: A Ma Soeur, Baise-Moi, The House on the Edge of the Park, Ichi the Killer, and Irreversible (Barker et al. 3). These films were chosen because of their portrayal of sexual violence, meaning that they can be used to highlight natural audience ...

The reaction by a person being told they have HIV is often and very understandably very negative. Most people, even in the most undereducated countries in the world, understand very well that HIV is a life-shortening disease. Depending on a multitude of physical, mental, and socio-economic factors, living with HIV can be a horrendous damnation in which the person is shamed and shunned for the remainder of their life, or it can be another chronic illness among a list of others. In the United States and the United Kingdom, most people today who are the most susceptible consider HIV ...

The violence has become an internal part of our social life nowadays. We see it everywhere: we read about it, watch the news and our favorite series. The problem, however, is not in this, but in how we perceive such type of behavior. The scenes of murders, mockery, attacks and all the sorts of assaults we consume as an already usual thing. It always seems that these stories are so far away from you, on the other side of the screen, in written plots of producers and newsmakers. You feel so safe, sitting on your old brown sofa in ...

Visual Literacy: Thomas Hoepker 9/11 Photograph

According to Liu, the rapid advancement of science and technology is influencing significant transformation in human communication systems (1259). The visual element of communication is now being utilized widely with images, color, and other multimodal resources being used for more than entertainment and illustration (Harrison 46). Visual messages are being used to convey significant meaning (Liu 1259). The visual culture is becoming popular due to its ability to communicate instantly and universally via the Internet (Bamford 2). As such, people should be able to decode and interpret the various visual images that are exposed to them every day to ...

In a globalized world, it seems as though culture shock is inevitable. Essentially, people “encounter culture shock whenever they uproot themselves from a familiar setting and move to an unfamiliar one,” (Ting-Toomey & Chung, 2011, p. 93). With millions of people traveling as tourists, finding work in other countries, and students studying outside of their homeland, culture shock is an experience that will ultimately affect so many. For some scholars, what it really boils down to is how a person handles their culture shock, and how their reaction to culture shock will affect their ability to adapt to a new ...

It is not human nature to run towards trouble, but instead away from it. Human beings possess an innate sense that requires them to bear witness to tragedy, drama, and triumph alike, but does not force them into action. There are exceptions to the rule without a doubt, though these are relatively few and in most cases will inspire others to act. Without those who work against their own nature as human beings however the inactivity and inability to intervene when needed is a very human characteristic. It is easier to stand by and do nothing than it is ...

Sound, Waves and Electricity

Question 1 A. As a sound wave through a uniform medium, the wave will experience a gradual reduction in its 1. Power As a sound wave travels through a uniform medium, the amount of energy transmitted into the medium gradually diminishes. This energy which is also the power of the sound wave too diminishes gradually because amplitude in a sound wave is a maximum which diminishes gradually. The speed and frequency of a sound wave travelling through a uniform medium remains constant as the speed and frequency of sound waves are determined by the properties of the medium and ...

Salvador Dali – a man worth remembering

Salvador Dali – a man worth remembering On one sunny mayday in a little town in Catalonia, a man was born who would eventually change the direction of art and reinvent the nature of “enfant terrible”. Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dalí i Domènech, Marqués de Dalí y de Púbol was the first child after the deceased older brother; this is probably why his parents had high hopes for him. This is probably why he behaved the way he did. As a child, young Salvador was arrogant, uncontrollable and difficult, but at the same time had makings of ...

Introduction

Over the last one year, the global oil price has declined rapidly by approximately 50 percent. The drop in the oil prices may have largely been as a result reduced global growth prospects. Analysts argue that the rise of the U.S dollar in relation to other currencies played a significant role in the oil prices decline (Energy Information Administration, 2014). The decrease in the global oil prices has led to a significant impact on the U.S economy. In essence, the price drop has reduced the cost of living while increasing the real consumers’ incomes. The real income gain has ...

PART A - (Total 15 marks)

Cephalexin and Gentamicin The mechanism of action of amoxicillin is focused on the prevention of the synthesis of the bacteria’s cell wall through the binding and inhibiting of the cell wall transpeptidases (Katzung, Masters, and Trevor, 2012). Specifically, it attaches to the penicillin-binding protein 1A found in the cell wall of bacteria. Then, the agent disintegrates the lactam ring to allow the acylation of the penicillin-sensitive transpeptidase C-terminal domain. The formation of the cross-link of the linear peptidoglycan strands is prevented by the inactivation of transpeptidases. Since the third and last stage ...

Criminal Justice: Women in Prison

In this paperwork, I am going to discuss issues in the incarceration of women such as mental illness, pregnancy, substance use, separation of family, as well as the environment. When the term Prisons is mentioned, we automatically switch our mind to young men, since approximately ninety percent of inmates are male, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons. It is important to note that the proportion of imprisoned women is small, but this proportion consists of hundreds of thousand women, at present, living behind bars in the United States. Currently, the number of women wedged in the criminal justice ...
