...shoplifting, in which the action is usually well-planned and motivated by need or monetary gain. Often a kleptomaniac steals things he or she could have easily bought or things that are not expensive. The objects stolen are not stolen for their immediate utility or monetary value; on the contrary, the person will most likely discard them, give them away, or collect them. This behavior is usually associated with a sense of satisfaction during and immediately after its accomplished. Stealing is not done to express anger or vengeance nor is it a response to delirium or hallucination (Cardoso, 1997). Most patients with this disorder seem to be women; their mean age is about 36 and their mean duration of illness is roughly 16 years. Some individuals report the onset of kleptomania as early as age five,...

...I am working in a Civil Hospital as a senior Health Service Manager in a rural area of Punjab (India) known as Kapurthala. We received financial support from government to covert our acute care to primary care, so me and members of my organization conducted a survey in Kapurthala. We examined that vast amount of people are low or middle-incomed and they have little access to better quality of health care. So we are building a primary health care model in Kapurthala so that people will be able to get better quality of health care as well as it will decrease the health proportion. We will include different stakeholders, such as national policy makers, practitioners, nurses, public-health researchers, development agencies as well as funding organizations. We are going to mainly focus on following arrangements. First of all, we will rebuilt public health foundation, for the proper better health care approach by community members. To acquire this, we will reassemble and elaborate the primary care services as well as also advance the incorporation of primary care usual procedures and community health organization (Grant and Greene, 2012). Moreover, we will design our model in such a way that it will decrease the access obstructions by supplying many services. For example, health insurance schemes, transportation facilities, prolong hours of operation as well as assimilation of specialist doctors at the locality of primary care.

...In this report I will be explaining the concepts of equality, diversity and rights which relate to Health and social care. I will then go into describe discriminatory practices that are used within health and social care setting and the effects that they have on the service users. Equality Equality is treating everyone equal in rights, status and opportunities. Its about creating a more equal society, where everyone can participate and are given equal opportunities to help everyone achieve their full potential. There are laws in place to ensure that this happens. An example of this within a care home would be showing the same amount of respect to all residents within the care home, and to give them all equal opportunities. Equal opportunities is giving the same chance to help people fulfil their personal and professional skills regardless of their sexuality, culture, gender, age or social class. Opportunities are important within the health and social care setting. If everyone is not given opportunities then they are unable to progress and gain new skills or knowledge. The word opportunities means to give the same chance to each person so they are able to progress and learn new personal and professional skills. An example of opportunity within a hospital would be giving all staff the chance to go in training courses to learn new skills, techniques, or about any new discovers, so they have better knowledge. This then enables the staff to give a better derive to all...

There are rules for each family unit that include only being able to have one father, mother, and two children-- one daughter and one son. Another rule that each family unit has to follow is the telling of dreams each morning at breakfast. There are rules about modesty that apply to all family units. An example of a mesty rule is the rule of nakedness. Although, this rule does not apply to newchildren or the Old. The final rules that all family units have to abide by is the process of stirrings. Once an adolescent begins having stirrings, he or she is required to report it and begin taking medication. By having rules in family units and rules such as taking medication for stirrings, this allows the community to be stabilized and controlled. Finally, there are basic rules for the community that everyone must follow. These rules consist of: taking food out of the recreation area, failing to keep ribbons properly tied, and teaching younger children to ride bicycles; which are all rules that if broken, can be handled with a gentle reminder. Other rules such as: stealing leftovers from the community or going out at night have serious consequences. “In a community that thrives on predictability and Sameness, rules are a way of life” (study.com).

...The Center will achieve greater integration and overall effectiveness in the U.S. Government's enforcement and other response efforts, and work with other governments to address the separate but related issues of alien smuggling, trafficking in persons, and criminal support of clandestine terrorist travel. Migrant smuggling, clandestine terrorist travel and trafficking in persons are transnational issues that threaten national security. The Center provides a mechanism to bring together federal agency representatives from the police, law enforcement, intelligence, and diplomatic areas to work together on a full time basis to achieve increased effectiveness, and to covert intelligence into effective law enforcement and other action. Often, human smuggling is conducted in order to obtain a financial or other material benefit for the smuggler, although the financial gain or material benefit are not necessarily elements of the crime. Smuggled persons may become victims of other crimes. In addition to being subjected to unsafe conditions on the smuggling journeys, smuggled aliens may be subjected to physical and sexual violence. Frequently, at the end of the journey, smuggled aliens are held hostage until their debt is paid off by family members or others. It is also possible that a person being smuggled may at any point become a trafficking...

...Merriam-Webster dictionary definition, domestic violence is: "the inflicting of physical injury by one family or household member on another; also: a repeated or habitual pattern of such behavior." Domestic violence, also known as domestic abuse, spousal abuse, battering, family violence, and intimate partner violence (IPV), is broadly defined as a pattern of abusive behaviors by one or both partners in an intimate relationship such as marriage, dating, family, or cohabitation.

Alcohol consumption and mental illness can be co-morbid with abuse, and present additional challenges in eliminating domestic violence. Awareness, perception, definition and documentation of domestic violence differ widely from country to country, and from era to era. Domestic Violence: A Survivor’s Perspective Domestic violence and abuse isn't limited to obvious physical violence.

...By TUAGIRA Mike From RWANDA BURGLARY I. Introduction Nowadays, serious property crimes are among types of crimes that most people of various societies fear. Burglary is then one of the serious property crimes and it was defined differently by different scholars. In this essay, burglary will be discussed in its details by looking its historical background, its patterns and trends, characteristics of offender, victim and offence. Indeed, there will be analysis of its constitutive elements, reaction and response of the society to it, policing strategies in preventing and investigating burglary as well as challenges in its prosecution. II. Historical perspective II. 1. Background and definitions Historically, an offence to be qualified as burglary required entry into any structure even if the occupant is not therein at that time of entry. Traditionally, to be qualified as burglary, an offence must have occurred at nighttime when natural light was insufficient to identify a face (Hall and Clark, 2002). Finally burglary required the intention of perpetrator to commit a felony when entering the other’s dwelling even if the perpetrator did not commit or attempt to commit crime inside the structure. Today, many states recognize that there is a burglary when there is entry into any construction suitable for occupancy such as residential or commercial houses, car and others, while for the first degree burglary requires entering dwelling. Burglary in its modern appearance requires...

...INTO THE WILD, AN EXTENSIVE REVIEW Both The book and film 'Into the Wild' give an account on a genuine story of Christopher J McCandless, a knowledgeable and capable young fellow from a decent family who pursued his fantasies and desire. In the wake of graduation from Emory University, Chris gave the parity of his instruction sparing record to Oxfam and vanished from society to carry on with the life of a loner and endeavor into domains where relatively few have challenged. He ended up giving up obviously, his family and companions in doing as such. The book recounts the story from impeccable outsiders he met, his adolescence, his adventures and disappointments prompting his troublesome passing. The book and film additionally gives you samples of different experiences that have likenesses to Chris and additionally the writer who can identify with Chris' enthusiasm forever. It is an extraordinary story and surely one that inspires. I just cannot get enough of this story, the movie is epic, but it’s the novel that is the topping in the dessert. The moral lessons are immensely impactful, not only that, they are very relevant in the contemporary society. I have chosen to review this work of art due to the extensive applicability in real life and the lives of the majority of us in the contemporary society. I love the movie more since it brings the characters to live, in a manner that very few Hollywood blockbusters have achieved. This allows the audience to connect and identify...

...Lapointe & Rivard/Resistance to IT Implementation RESEARCH ARTICLE A MULTILEVEL MODEL OF RESISTANCE TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY IMPLEMENTATION1 By: Liette Lapointe Faculty of Management McGill University 1001 Sherbrooke Street West Montreal, Quebec H3A 1G5 Canada liette.lapointe@mcgill.ca Suzanne Rivard HEC Montreal 3000 Côte Ste-Catherine Road Montreal, Quebec H3T 2A7 Canada suzanne.rivard@hec.ca of the nature of the relationships between these components and (2) refine our understanding of the multilevel nature of the phenomenon. Using analytic induction, we examined data from three case studies of clinical information systems implementations in hospital settings, focusing on physicians’ resistance behaviors. The resulting mixeddeterminants model suggests that group resistance behaviors vary during implementation. When a system is introduced, users in a group will first assess it in terms of the interplay between its features and individual and/or organizational-level initial conditions. They then make projections about the consequences of its use. If expected consequences are threatening, resistance behaviors will result. During implementation, should some trigger occur to either modify or activate an initial condition involving the balance of power between the group and other user groups, it will also modify the object of resistance, from system to system significance. If the relevant initial conditions pertain to the power of the resisting group vis-à-vis the system...

These topics will start with the basic principles of an investigation then lead into the criminal investigation basics then learn the proper evidence acquisition and management the next step in the guide to helping you with the investigation process is employee and administrative investigations ending with personnel investigations. Investigation Principles Investigations are the examination, study, tracking, and the gathering of factual information (Sennewald-Tsukayama 2006). With this being said the investigation process is more of an art form than it is science, but science in many investigations plays a large part. The person that is doing the investigation is the gather of facts; this person must hypotheses and is able to draw a conclusion that is based on the information and the evidence. The basic principle in investigation is that the process is a comprehensive activity that involves the collection of information with the application of logic and the ability to use sound reasoning. The basic end result in any investigation is that it is a factual explanation of what has happened if the issue or incident is that of history, or what is occurring, or if the issue is of the present (Sennewald-Tsukayama 2006). There are two types of investigations...

...A Good Death ENG 155 Advanced Composition For the terminally ill, death in advanced modern societies can often be described as undignified. Terminally ill patients are frequently connected to machines, tubes, and a variety of other life-support equipment. They experience intolerable pain that would be inconceivable to a healthy individual. The terminally ill patient is often left with no option other than to die in an impersonal medical institution. They are unable to get out of bed, feed themselves or even go to the bathroom without assistance. As reported recently in a survey issued by the National Cancer Policy Board of the Institute of Medicine and National Research Council, “Many of the 550,000 American patients who die of cancer each year spend their last days in distress, suffering from pain, nausea, fatigue and depression” (Toufexis). In such circumstances there is no means for a terminally ill patient to sustain their dignity in the dying process. Unfortunately, much of the misery suffered by the terminally ill is done so needlessly. Surveys indicate that along with the loss of a patient’s dignity and quality of life is the fear of facing death in uncontrollable pain. A recent survey by the National Cancer Policy Board of the Institute of Medicine And National Research Council indicated that, nine million Americans are now living with cancer and about...

A clean catch urine is difficult to obtain and requires clear directions. Instructing the client to carefully clean the meatus, then void naturally with a steady stream prevents surface bacteria from contaminating the urine specimen. As starting and stopping flow can be difficult, once the client begins voiding it’s best to just slip the container into the stream. Other responses do not reflect correct technique 3.

...responses client performance of those (Bandura, 1976), This treatment package (also termed “contact desensitization” (Ritter, 1%8) has been used to attenuate fear responses to Bandura, targets such as snakes (e.g., Blanchard and Ritter, 1969; Blanchard, 1970; Ritter, 1968; Thase and Moss, 1976), heights (e.g., Ritter, 1969), water (e.g., Lewis, 1972*), rats (e.g., Lick and Bootzin, 1970), and dogs (MacDonald, 1975; Richards and Siegel, 1978). Comparative research would indicate that participant modeling is superior to other techniques commonly employed to promote fear reduction (Bandura, 1976), but Leitenberg (1976) notes a limitation to that research, namely its near exclusive focus on non clinical populations and targets. There are few reports on the use of participant modeling with chronic, debilitating fears (e.g., MacDonald, 1975).
