... Anne Hutchinson: Ahead of Her Time Although women came to America expecting some of the same liberties and freedoms their men fought and died for both in England and in the new world of America, it was a very long time before they were able to enjoy the rights and freedoms they enjoy today. This is because Puritans who settled in Colonial America created laws and customs relating to women’s roles that were, in some cases, more stringent than those that existed in England at the time. This traditional, patriarchal society was intent on punishing women who did not conform to the prescribed ‘norms’ of the Puritan culture. A well-documented example is women who would not marry again following the death of their husband. Choosing to be a single woman was considered by the Puritans to be disregarding ‘God’s will.’ These women were looked upon suspiciously and this choice heightened the chance that they would be accused of being a witch. Many of the rights and freedoms enjoyed by women today were brought about by women recognized for their courage and their ability to stand up for their gender such as Mary Wollstonecraft, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Queen Victoria. However, there were many women involved in these early migrations to the new continent who held many of the same concepts regarding women’s true proper place in society. One of these women was Anne Hutchinson, a woman truly ahead of her time. Biography ...

...left up to you. So imagine how some women must feel when abortion is the main topic of a conversation. Imagine how women must feel when people around her are saying that abortion should be illegal because the mother is “murdering” her child. The fact of that matter is that there are multiple reasons a mother may abort her child. Abortion is not always necessarily done to benefit the mother’s needs, in many cases, it benefits the unborn child's life as well. Abortion mitigates the risk of mental, physical,...

Invention of poison gas (holocaust), war against Japan ended with the atomic bomb * Even when science is intended to benefit humans, unintended consequences could occur. * E.g. Rachel carson's silent spring (1963) awakened the world to the dangers of pollution * How science in the service of business can produce catastrophic results ; pesticides for farms -> Are we blinded by profit so much so we don't do not care about the environment? * *air pollution is the biggest cause of human deaths today Science, money and value * Science is very much subservient to business interest today -> values of those who seek fame and fortune creep into science: profit often determines the direction of science, influencing the choice of problem investigated by scientists ...

Research have suggested that systems are generalized across religions and localities but arrive out of specific religious cultures and adapted to fit the United States system. Nonprofit literature on faith based organization has focused primarily on independent organization, seeing their supporting faith communities as a source of funding and in kind resources like volunteers (e.g., Cnaan, Boddies, Handy, Yancy, &Schneider, 2002; Ebaugh, Chafetz, &Pipes, 2005; Grettenberger, 2001).

...the troops that she claimed to receive in her visions. Whether Joan is considered a hero, a saint or a visionary woman, her life continues to be of controversy among scholars who still immortalize her with their studies. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the various perceptions that attempt to portray Joan of Arc as a venerated and outstanding figure. Part of the analysis will focus on her role as an inspirational woman, the iconography and symbols and the role within religion and political involvement that Joan of Arc continues to influence. Her life and death According to Kevin J. Harty’s article “Joan of Arc’s life may well be the most-documented of anyone who lived before the twentieth-century but as Professor Heimann’s ground-breaking and fascinating study suggests there is still much to be learned about the Maid of Orléans” (Harty 104). Her very short life (1412-31) had a series of events that would be remembered for hundreds of years to follow. At the age of 12, she started seeing visions of saints who would guide her way leading the French troops to end the siege of Orléans. Her visions can be contrasted with the annunciation experienced by the Virgin Mary. In the annunciation, the Holy Spirit told Mary that she would give birth to Jesus, in the case of Joan; her annunciation was to lead the French troops to victory. Another similarity to Mary’s life is Joan’s virginity. In Neil Warren’s article, he mentions that “Joan's English captors put Joan through yet another...

...UTAH SYMPHONY AND UTAH OPERA: A MERGER PROPOSAL Case study prepared by Kristian Alexander for Professor John Oesch. © Rotman School of Management, Kristian Alexander, 2004. ____________________________________________________________ _______________________ 1. The case1 Unlike major arts organizations in Europe and Canada that rely heavily on government agencies for their funding, orchestras and opera companies in the United States operate according to a very different financial model and generate income primarily through ticket sales (approximately 46%) and individual contributions (approximately 36%). Since September 11, 2001, all arts organizations in the United States had experienced a dramatic decline in public and government subsidies that had led to revenue loss and major operating deficit. To compensate for the decline in attendance, ticket prices had been slightly increased but this did not stop the stagnation in the arts organizations. Utah Opera was formed in 1976 by the renowned European operatic talent Glade Peterson who served as a General Director until his death in 1990. The following year Anne Ewers was named General Director. Under her direction, the opera continued to 1 Case study written by Professor Thomas J. DeLong and Ph.D. Candidate David L.

...The Role of the Healthcare Provider by Joy Magness PhD APRN-BC Adolescent Pregnancy: Abstract: Although pregnancy rates have declined over the last 20 years, adolescents who become pregnant are viewed as a group at risk for adverse outcomes. In many instances, this view conflicts with the perception of the pregnant teen. Healthcare providers who work with this population have an essential role in ensuring a positive experience for the mother, father, and family network. This paper provides a brief review of adolescent pregnancy and the general role of the healthcare provider. Keywords: adolescent pregnancy, healthcare provider in adolescent pregnancy Adolescent pregnancy has been delineated as a social problem worthy of addressing from a prevention perspective in the Healthy People 2020 national objectives (Office of Population Affairs, 2010). Pregnancy between the ages of 10 and 19 has been portrayed as a crisis and associated with negative emotional, physical, and financial repercussions. United States taxpayers incur about 9 billion dollars per year secondary to teen childbearing expenses (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2012). Although adolescent pregnancy is not ideal for most life trajectories, it does not have to be regarded as an all-encompassing, unfavorable life event. Nurses are the health care providers who have the most prolonged interactions with women during the pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period; hence, they have a paramount role in...

...and alcohol problems among young people is crucial from economic and societal perspectives (Araoz, 2012). Therefore, it is important to contextualise youth binge drinking. Additionally, taking this a step further by presenting and describing an economic model, which illustrates a tax on producers bringing alcohol levels to a socially efficient consumption. Lastly, critically analysing strengths and limitations of an alternative pricing policy (minimum price) and non-pricing policy, which have been successful. 2.0 Setting the context The term 'binge drinking' generally refers to drinking heavily over a short period of time with the intention of becoming intoxicated, leading to various costs from an economic and societal perspective (Anderson, 2008). Negative social costs underlying youth binge drinking in Australia include interpersonal violence, drunk driving and lost economic productivity (NIAAA, 2000). Therefore, much of the burden of such problems is initially born by first response and public emergency services (Collins & Lapsley 2002). Figure 1 clearly reflects this, showing 3,000 hospitalisations...

...Cultural Competence The city of Milwaukee in Milwaukee County area is an extremely ethnically and racially diverse city in the state of Wisconsin (Milwaukee Citywide Policy Plan, 2010). According to the American Community Survey (ACS) in 2008 the city residents made up about 63% of Milwaukee County’s total population. However, the city of Milwaukee accounts for almost 88% of the county’s minority population and that number is slightly increasing yearly (Milwaukee Citywide Policy Plan, 2010). There are primarily Blacks, Hispanics, and Asian minorities found living in the area but there are still many more other minorities found in the streets of the city of Milwaukee. Graph 1 and Graph 2 below show the minority population in Milwaukee County compares to the minority population in the city of Milwaukee.
