...Why does rape and sexual assault happen? There is a strong evidence that shows that an amount of men believe in their law that it is alright for a man to force their life partner to have sex, whether they want it or not. It is their belief to think that “forcing a person to have sex” is not wrong as they do not think that it is rape. There are some circumstances included when rape or sexual assault happens. First circumstance to rape is when they have had sex together before. They will have the urge to have sex again once they have done it once with the other companion. The other side would think that it is now okay to force them to have sex once they have done it before. Second circumstance is she has had sex with other person before. When this occurs, they will want revenge on the other life partner and thus it will lead to rape. Third is when she has let the other person touch them above their waist. By letting them touch above their waist, the men will be more attracted to the women and it will give them the thirst to touch it again. Thus, it will also lead to rape or sexual assault. Fourth is when she has let another person to touch her below the waist. He will also have the urge to feel below the waist again and it will make them want a new experience. It will then lead to rape or sexual assault. Lastly is when he has spent a lot of money on her. He will think that he owns the girl because of the things he has bought for her and he will take advantage and force her...

...A standard technical definition of dumping is the act of charging a lower price for the like goods in a foreign market than one charges for the same good in a domestic market for consumption in the home market of the exporter. This is often referred to as selling at less than "normal value" on the same level of trade in the ordinary course of trade. Under the World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement, dumping is condemned (but is not prohibited) if it causes or threatens to cause material injury to a domestic industry in the importing country.[1] The term has a negative connotation, as advocates of competitive markets see "dumping" as a form of protectionism. Furthermore, advocates for workers and laborers believe that safeguarding businesses against predatory practices, such as dumping, help alleviate some of the harsher consequences of such practices between economies at different stages of development (see protectionism). The Bolkestein directive, for example, was accused in Europe of being a form of "social dumping," as it favored competition between workers, as exemplified by the Polish Plumber stereotype. While there are few examples of a national scale dumping that succeeded in producing a national-level monopoly, there are several examples of local 'dumping' that produced a monopoly in regional markets for certain industries. Ron Chernow points to the example of regional oil monopolies in Titan : The Life of John D. Rockefeller, Sr. where Rockefeller receives a message...

...Transformation in Skid Row Skid row in Los Angeles, California, is home to the highest concentrations of homeless people in the United States. Located in LA’s industrial zone, the area has welcomed and ‘housed’ homeless individuals for centuries. The history of how this site has come to be started back in the 1870’s and has been evolving ever since. Skid row is a vital part of LA’s history and culture and will continue to evolve with the city. An important part of any landscape is function. Function is the purpose of any landscape and exists for a reason. Mitchell stated in his new axioms for reading the landscape that, “landscapes exist for a reason (Mitchell 2007, 35).” This axiom presents the idea that everything in the landscape had a purpose at one point in time. Landscapes transform and change over time in order to meet the purposes of the residents of the landscape. An example of this is skid row in LA. Although this area of LA might seem like a dump, at one point in time it had a function and its function and purpose has evolved with time. Skid row is located in the industrial zone of LA with close proximity to the central business district. This location is unusual for a center for homeless people for many reasons, but looking back at history has an explanation. When workers first arrived in LA they arrived by railroad (Skid Row Journal). A hub for seasonal and migrant workers formed near the railroad line creating skid row. In lecture a chart was brought...

...United States are reaching unprecedented numbers in the nation’s history with an expectation of reaching nearly 89 million people by age 65 or older by year 2050. The rapid U.S. growth can be attributed to two realities: Americans are living longer than in previous decades; the twentieth century ushered in effective public health strategies and advances in medical treatment contributing to a dramatic increase in average life expectancy. The post -World War II “baby boomer” generation. The leading edge of the baby boom generation reached age 65 in 2011, and every other day roughly 10,000 people will celebrate their 65th birthday. So, by 2030 the last baby boomer will celebrate their 65th birthday leaving a population of 72 million older Americans (CDC, 2013). This population has wide-ranging implications for virtually every facet of American society. At each point in the lifespan of baby boomers, the United States has felt and been changed by the impact of their numbers and needs—from booming sales in commercial baby food in the late 1940s, to construction of new schools during the 1950s, to the housing construction boom of the 1970s and 1980s. The 30-year gain in life expectancy within the span of a century had never before been achieved. Diseases that once claimed lives have been eradicated while others like heart disease still present challenges other chronic diseases and conditions, such as stroke, chronic lower respiratory diseases, Alzheimer’s disease, and diabetes...

...that is as worthy and sellable today as it was back in its heyday. Yes, EDM, hip-hop, rap and auto-tuned pop dominate the airwaves and I-Tunes playlists, and these genres generate massive record sales and concert and radio advertising revenues. But thanks to video games like Rock Band and Guitar Hero, plus a generation of parents who drove their kids to school and selected the in-car musical entertainment, boomer-parented children not only recognize names like Boston, Steely Dan, Foreigner and Deep Purple, they know the lyrics and the melodies and will gladly attend concerts by such retro acts - with their parents! “Oldies” have been re-birthed!

...decision to breastfeed versus formula feed babies can be difficult and one of the most important decisions a mother can make. While there is nothing wrong with giving babies formula milk, breastfeeding should be the number one choice for mothers. As breast milk provides more nutrients, is naturally produced by mothers and is less expensive, breastfeeding is more beneficial than formula milk. When examining the benefits of breastfeeding as opposed to formula milk, breast milk tops the list with the nutrients and antibodies it provides. As breast milk contains antibodies that formula milk does not, this provides extra protection for babies against diseases and viruses. The first milk a baby receives while breastfeeding is colostrum. Colostrum is rich in nutrients and the mother’s own disease-preventing antibodies which may protect the baby from certain viruses (Kutner, 2012). Thus, breastfeeding babies contribute to building babies’ immune systems. As the breast milk matures, “the cells, hormones, and antibodies [in breast milk]…protect babies from illness” (Womenshealth.gov, 2011). This combination is unique to breast milk and is not contained in formula milk. On the other hand, some formula milk does contain more vitamin D than breast milk, which is essential in building strong bones. In addition, formula milk also contains fluoride which is important for healthy teeth. However, both nutrients can be provided to babies as a supplement if they are needed. Formula...

History of Surrogacy and Case Study Surrogacy was assumed to have been around since the Babylonian times. Alternatively, the most credible records to date allocate managing legal passivity and the public responses during the middle of the 20th century. Surrogacy did not become public in 1976, when Attorney Noel Keane negotiated the first ever surrogacy agreement ("History of surrogacy," 2011). Attorney Noel Keane and Dr. Ringold created the first ever fertility clinic (surrogacy clinic) in the United States. Many laws and regulations were not implemented until the case of Elizabeth Kane and the case of Baby M. Elizabeth Kane was the first woman to enter into a compensated surrogacy agreement in 1980. She was to be compensated with $10,000. She, however, was unwilling to leave the surrogacy...

...Tutorial One Case Study - Generation snap Continuance commitment is one dimension to organizational commitment, which refers to the economic reason for staying in an organization (Robbins et al. 2011). If the generational snap exists regarding this commitment, it is obviously that the Gen Y will have a high turnover rate comparing with other generations. As the case illustrates, Gen Y are well connected with the society, impatient for career success and possessing high technological skills. Thus, economic reasons cannot prevent them from leaving the organization when they intend to do so. While other generations may afraid that there are less opportunities for them to find another job with a satisfactory salary once they quit the job. Another possible difference is that the Gen Y seems to have more confidence than other generations. They are confident about the skill they had acquired and their ability to socialize. There are several strategies for improving the level of job satisfaction for generation Y employees. The first strategy is to approve. The Gen Y need to feel that their abilities have been confirmed and they are making a contribution to the company. People in other generations may have the mentality of “Let nature take its course”, but the Gen Y like to take the initiative and get things done depend on their strength. Thus, other people’s recognition is essential to a satisfactory job. The second strategy is to give response quickly. The generation Y are impatient...

...BREAST FEEDING COUNSELING Research Critique, Part1 Article Used: LaanteraS, Polkki T, Pietila A-M. International Journal of Nursing Practice 2011; 17: 72-84, “A descriptive qualitative review of the barriers relating to breast-feeding counseling” Problem Statement: Breast-feeding is not only an intimate and bonding experience for many new mothers, but important and very healthy for newborns. Breast-feeding provides newborns with antibodies, and protects them from many health problems along with fighting diseases (WomensHealth.gov). However to know this important information, breast-feeding counseling is a great aid in helping new parents learn all about its benefits. While breast-feeding counseling is beneficial, many parents and mothers do not know about it and many barriers exist. In an article by Laantera et al, called “A descriptive qualitative review of the barriers relating to breast-feeding counseling”, these barriers are identified and can be helpful in developing future measurements to assess barriers for breast-feeding counseling. Little research has been conducted previously on barriers to breast-feeding counseling, which makes this an important topic and problem to address. This topic is also important to discuss because despite breast-feeding benefits, only 35% of infants worldwide are exclusively breast-fed for 6 months (WHO, 2009). Purpose and Research Question: The main purpose of this study was to describe barriers in breast-feeding counseling...

...Demographic Paper Pedreed Anjahal HCA 490 September 19, 2011 Michael Veal Demographic Paper DEMOGRAPHICS It is a proven fact. With all the advances in modern health care, people are living longer. As someone starts to get older, they start feeling the consequences of aging and strive to find a healthier life style. Still, there comes a point when many people require the professional need of long term health care services. As healthy as today’s population is, illness is usually comes as something unexpected. Upon such an eventuality, a person may require some type of specialized health care needs. POPULATION CONTROL With the Baby Boomer generation decides to retire or stops aging at a phenomenal rate, people requiring long term health care needs are on the rise still. People are living longer and their health care needs may be beyond that, which can be managed by family members. Fortunately, within the current health care field there is a wide variety of systems available for helping to take care of an elderly family member. It is even possible for the family to take the elderly person into his or her home. Alternatively, the family may have to decide to place the elderly member in a nursing home for long-term care. Whichever choice is deemed best, it is always critically important that the elderly person feels comfortable in the environment in which he or she is placed (Feder, Komisar & Niefeld, 2000). According to United States society census...

...hoarded its power to preserve her youth and beauty. As centuries passed, a glorious kingdom was built close to the cliff where the flower grew. When the beloved queen fell ill, the townspeople searched for the legendary flower, until at last they found it. The flower made the queen well, and she soon gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. The King and Queen launched a lantern into the sky in celebration.   One night, the vengeful Mother Gothel slipped into the nursery, there lying in two cradles, were two baby girls.

Usually young workers want to make a quick impact, the middle generation needs to believe in the mission, and older employees don’t like ambivalence. It is important organization to take time and build the trusting relationship where each generation brings ahead their potentials and works towards the organization goal. The leaders should recognize the different work characteristics between generational groups and apply leadership styles that will positively contribute to employee motivation. As a result, due to the shifting nature of the job/task itself and the changing nature of subordinate characteristics and behavior. Leadership styles have also had to make changes. Accordingly, a task-oriented leadership style is more acceptable to Baby boomers but Generation...

...Future Trends of HR Considering the many stressors and factors effecting human resources and the workforce today, the future trends of human resources must be assessed. One of the largest dilemmas facing the workforce today is the generational differences between the current workforce and the newly hired. Presently, the baby boomer generation is of retirement age which leaves the workforce lacking of skilled labor and knowledge. Reports have shown an estimated 70 million baby boomers will soon retire from the workforce while only 40 million will enter leaving an extreme deficit in the workforce (“The Present & Future,” 2006). Therefore, stress factors affecting the labor market to compensate for this loss are increased work hours, greater workloads, and less pay increases. A current problem facing human resources in organizations is an increased turnover rate. Employees are looking for better work conditions and an increase in monetary compensation. Evaluating these conditions, future trends in HR illustrate a need for talented and experienced skilled labor and the workforce exemplifies a lack of qualified applicants. Organizations are looking at a higher cost for recruiting, training, and hiring. HR planning is imperative to future trends of human resources to include, but not limited to globalization, outsourcing, and technology. Globalization is the logistics that foster economic growth across geographical borders. Major US organizations have manufacturing...

...“Failure to Thrive" is a term used by pediatricians to describe this condition in which a child has an abnormally low weight for his or her age or has an abnormally low weight gain over time. A main question is whether FTT is a disorder that blocks or interferes with the absorption of nutrients or if it is caused by lower than normal food intake. Parents who make sure their infants are well-nourished benefit their infants emotionally as well as physically. The act of feeding a child is an important emotional interaction between the infant and his or her parent. Especially, when mothers breast-feed their babies, they bond with their child and foster their connection. At the same time, breast milk within the first year reduces the risk of postneonatal death and prevents illnesses, such as diarrhea, respiratory, ear and urinary tract infections. Mothers who breast-feed their babies also benefit their child’s neurological development and cardiovascular health (Papalia, Olds, Feldman, 2008, p.148). Proper nutrition in the neonatal stage can greatly contribute to the child’s development and physical condition. Between the ages of 6 and 12 months it is important that parents feed their children iron-enriched solid foods, such as cereal. Before this...
