...as “doing for others what they would do for themselves if they had the strength, will, and the knowledge; and also that the nurse helps the patient to carry out the plan of therapy prescribed by the physician” (Smith, 1989, p. 69). She saw the function of the nurse as helping the patient. Virginia believed a nurse should focus on helping the patient recover and rehabilitate quickly. She saw the practice of a nurse as being different from that of the physician, yet she believed both roles were an integral part of the rehabilitation phase. Henderson also believed the nurse should be independent from the physician and make independent judgments (Henderson, 1966, p. 22). Henderson proposed 14 basic human needs that help focus the nursing care (Alligood & Tomey, 2010, p. 56). She believed these 14 needs would help a patient return to independence. She believed only a dedicated and devoted nurse would help a patient fulfill these needs. According to Henderson, a nurse that helped a patient acquire independence or helped a patient accept their limitations was a successful nurse (Henderson, 1966, p. 23). The diagram below depicts Henderson’s 14 basic human needs. They are divided into four categories: physiological, psychological, social/moral, and sociological. Henderson claimed that the physiological needs are experienced by all human beings and are the most important for survival. If the physiological needs are not met first it will be nearly impossible to meet other needs. In Principles...

...diversified business with many component parts ranging from airlines to hotels. Hospitality is the act of kindness in welcoming and looking after the basic needs of guests or strangers, mainly in relation to food, drink and accommodation. A contemporary explanation of Hospitality refers to the relationship process between a guest and a host. When we talk about the “Hospitality Industry”, we are referring to the companies or organisations which provide food and/or drink and/or accommodation to people who are away from home. However, this definition of the “Hospitality Industry” only satisfies most situations. Online Hospitality – Information systems form a fascinating and rapidly expanding field of study. Hospitality traditionally lags other sectors in adopting information technology but this has changed in recent years and research into its application has followed suit. Researchers stress the importance of technology for the hospitality industry and highlight that it has become an indispensable part of hotels’ everyday operations. Interestingly, the bigger a hotel and the wider the number of services provided (restaurants, sport facilities, spa centers, golf courses, etc.) the higher reliance on technology. This happens because technology has...

...children's television has strayed far away from the typical nuclear family. Families that fill the screen now display various types cohabitation and relationship styles, conflicts, and struggles that are extremely relevant in modern day society. As children grow and mature, it is important for them to have images of families in the media that they can easily relate to and learn from, and children's programming accomplishes that goal. Television shows clearly portray the close relations families have with their affiliated kin. Affiliated kin is defined as any unrelated individuals who are treated as if they were realated (Strong, Devault, and Cohen 567). On the television show My Wife and Kids, Mr. Kyle treats Franklin, his neighbor and youngest daughter's friend, as another son. The two worked together like a father and son; Mr. Kyle helped Franklin encouraged Franklin to accept himself as he is, although he is outcasted by other children, and Franklin used his knowledge of another language to prevent Mr. Kyle from getting ripped off when buying back Junior's car. On The Nanny, the kids look up to Fran. Since Mr. Sheffield is divorced, Fran acts not only as the household's nanny, but she also acts as a care and advice giver to the Sheffield children. Children's television programs also underscore the idea that patterns of marriage and family relationships have drastically changed. For example, many couples live together before they are married. In the episode I observed of My...

...References....................................................................................................................12 1 Abstract This term paper aims to analyse the uses and impact of hypnosis and suggestion in advertising. In this new age where there is an increased onus on inbound marking and social media, we see advertisers taking up more path breaking avenues to tap into the minds of customers such as hypnosis focus groups. While hypnotised, a person’s brain functions at a deeper level called the alpha level where the subconscious is highly susceptible to suggestions and messages. Also, hypnosis can reduce the biases and normative behaviour associated with respondents and can also be effectively used in banner ads and other visually propagated advertisements. The paper studies the various ways in which hypnosis and suggestions have been used and are being currently used by advertisers. It goes on to enumerate the best ways among these and the road ahead, along with some...

...Hui-Fen Hsu The Heroic Pattern in Life of Pi 95 The Heroic Pattern in Life of Pi Hui-Fen Hsu Applied English Department National Taichung University of Science and Technology Lecturer Abstract This paper examines the universal structure of a mythological hero’s adventure in Life of Pi. The theory is based on Joseph Campbell’s The Hero with a Thousand Faces, which illustrated and distilled heroic patterns from various cultures. The hero’s journey has three stages: separation, initiation, and return. Answering a call to adventure, the hero departs from his familiar world and ventures into a region of supernatural wonder. Miraculous forces are encountered there and a decisive victory is won. He then returns from this mysterious land, bringing an elixir to bene¿t his fellow men. Through this journey of trials, the hero transforms his former self and achieves spiritual growth. Such heroes range from monster slayers to spiritual leaders such as the Buddha and Christ. Life of Pi is a fantasy adventure novel about an Indian boy who survives a shipwreck by drifting on a lifeboat with a tiger. His adventure ¿ts Joseph Campbell’s hero archetype. Similar to the mythological hero, Pi departs from his familiar land of India, answering the call for adventure to a new country. Protected by the supernatural powers of Hinduism, Catholicism, and Islam, he penetrates the dangerous and mysterious realm of the Pacific Ocean. After experiencing harsh ordeals, he returns...

...Angels Among Us Last time: 4 reasons why the world is enamored with angels: • Spirit of hopelessness—people are looking for answers and for something to fill their empty spirit. • Spirit of selfishness—Christians are called to be servants, but our society would rather be served than to serve. Angels are ministering spirits / servants, and people want to know what the angels can do for them. • Spirit of the New Age—our society is being conditioned for the end times. The world will accept the supernatural during the tribulation. The antichrist gains power on a platform of signs and wonders. • Spirit of curiosity—we’re all curious about the unknown. Questions people have about angels: What do angels look like? Are they female? Do we have guardian angels? How many angels are there? What is an archangel? Is it possible to see an angel? Do I pray to angels? What about demons, are they real? How are they different? Will I someday be an angel? As believers we have good reason to learn more on this subject…not for the sensational, but because there is an unseen world war going on all around us, and we’re in the middle of it! Angels are mentioned over 250 times in scripture. 1. The word “angel” literally means messenger 2. Angels are created spirit beings 3. Angels are not eternal beings 4. Angels are NOT glorified human beings 5. Angels are invisible spirit beings New info: 6. Angels are innumerable in number Hebrews 12:22 But ye are come unto mount Sion...

...Virginia Henderson’s “Basic Principles of Nursing” I. Introduction “The unique function of the nurse is to assist the individual, sick or well, in performance of those activities contributing to health or its recovery (or peaceful death) that he/she would perform unaided if he/she had the necessary strength, will or knowledge. And to do this in such a way as to help him/her gain independence as rapidly as possible (Virginia Henderson, 1961).” Henderson's work is widely used by nurses in different nations because of its practicality and realistic application in nursing practice. The nursing assessment, diagnosis, plan and evaluation parallels the doctors' general decision-making processes. Relevance Henderson’s work is essential to clinical nurse today. With the major shift in emphasis of nursing care today, nurses should be able to use Henderson’s model in caring for the patient. The patient’s ability to perform the 14 basic human needs should be assessed before considering the kind of care function to administer. It is essential to determine if one will be performing as a helper, a doer, or substitute, or a partner. Nursing interventions are implemented according to the 14 basic human needs of the patient. The degree of performance, involvement of the patient and level of the nurse activity will be dependent on the specific role the nurse will be playing. Objectives: ...

NO. 1 THE FORECAST IS SUNNY FOR THE WEATHER CHANNEL When The Weather Channel, the first 24 – hour all – weather network, began broadcasting in 1982, it quickly became the object of mockery. “Many in the industry ridiculed us, suggesting that the only type of advertiser we would attract would be a raincoat company or a galoshes company,” remembers Michael Eckert, The Weather Channel’s CEO. Besides pondering where advertising support would come from, critics questioned what kind of audience was going to tune in to a channel that boasts wall-to-wall weather, a topic that sounds as interesting as staring at wallpaper. So far, the answers to these questions have been quite surprising. In its over twenty years of broadcasting, the channel has gained support from a cadre of deep-pocket advertisers, which include Buick, Motorola, and Campbell’s Soup. In 2003, the Weather Channel reached more than 83 million U.S. households in Latin America under the name, El Canal del Tiempo. According to The Weather Channel’s Vice-president of strategic marketing, Steven Clapp, “There might have been a time when people weren’t willing to admit that they were viewers. ...
