...Electronic health records (EHR) are the central database for all patient related data, both clinical and financial for many healthcare organizations. The EHR must have the ability to send and receive data to other systems within and outside the healthcare organization. Standardized terminologies in and EHR makes the sharing of data or interoperability possible. Having a common interface design, such as health level-7 (HL7) allow this to happen. (McGonigle & Mastrian, 2015). Standard terms that describe health conditions, labs, and medications further allow for the transfer of data. At my organization we transmit continuity of care documents or CCD that allows for our data to flow into our community physicians EHR. There are also nursing...

...Micah Chrisman SOC-102 April 24, 2016 Ieisha Jones Theoretical Perspective Essay Structural functionalism is based on the idea that societies are made up of structures and functions. Structures include things like education, politics, family and economics. Functions are the what are produced by the structures; education provides learning and advancement within a society, politics provide social order, etc. These structures act like parts of a machine, each accomplishing a function to achieve harmony. However, because there are functions, there must also be dysfunctions. Dysfunctions are anything that go against the harmony of a society. The theory can be thought of like a car. Many different parts are needed for a car to function, but a number of things can go wrong before the car stops working. A car must have tires to move. If it gets a flat, it can still run, but it hurts the car and is less efficient. Dysfunctions hurt society, but unless there is a major problem, the society will continue to function. Conflict theory, as the name suggests, is a struggle for power. Karl Marx is the father of this theory. He believed that those in power will constantly oppress everyone else in order to keep their power. This theory explains discrimination within a society. At one point, white males gained power. In order to maintain this power, they oppressed the other races and women. This would allow them to keep power. Marx took this theory to all aspects of life. He saw capitalism...

...Amber Krutke Ms. Alyse W. Jones English 2111 7 June 2015 Discuss the Ways You Believe the Book of Job Succeeds or Fails in Answering the Question of Why the Innocent Suffer. At first glance, the book of Job appears to tell the tale of God chastising his utmost blameless servant to win a bet with the devil. However, further understanding tells us that this story is actually a message to all those who want to follow God. The message here is just much more challenging to recognize than other stories in the Bible. In chapter one of the Book of Job, Job is described as being “blameless” and “upright” (Alter, page 193). He was a man who “… feared God and shunned evil.” (Lawall, page 193) Genesis 6:9 in our text also describes Noah as a “blameless” and “righteous” man (Lawall, page 163). The difference in these texts is, “… Noah walked with God.” (Lawall, page 163) Therefore, just because Job “feared God and shunned evil” does not mean that he “walks with God.” Christianity and the Bible does not only teach the idea of righteousness. It also teaches the importance of having a relationship with God. Chapter one in the book of Job also states, “And it happened when the days of the feast came round, that job would send and concentrate them and rise early in the morning and offer up burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job thought, perhaps my sons have offended and cursed God in their hearts. Thus would Job do at all times.” Job wants to be a follower of God...

...motive for Christian living is intellectual in which it begins with the mind. What a Christian has been already made in Christ is now what they are called to do. Ultimately, the end result of the Christian life is to bring glory to God. Thus God is glorified when man response to Him by placing his trust in Jesus Christ and turns from a lifestyle of sin, which is characterized by obedience and devotion to Him. Corrupted Deeds “For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.” An essential part to understanding what Paul means by putting to death the corrupted deeds of the body is understanding what are the corrupted deeds of the body or sin.

TODD BEALL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR COMPLETION OF THE COURSE, OBST 661 B02 ISAIAH Introduction Let us begin this lesson with a word of prayer: Lord Jesus, we ask for your continued grace as we study these passages from Isaiah and learn what it is that you wish for your Church to take from the prophetic nature found in this ancient song sung by the prophet about your vineyard. Let your Holy Spirit guide us through this lesson and the study of your Holy Word. Amen. As we delve into this particular passage of Scripture you will notice that Isaiah weaves the two basic themes of judgment and salvation interchangeably throughout the accounts recorded in this prophecy. By using the agrarian image of the vineyard, in these two pericopes (which are sections of a whole), Isaiah makes a perfect case in point of God’s continued grace in the accomplishment of His divine will in all circumstances. Summary Statement: The objective of this lesson is to understand Isaiah’s creative use of the prophetic language in this image of the vineyard in order to teach the Church that through God’s judgment, which is richly deserved by all, they can be comforted to experience God’s overwhelming grace and salvation. The Parable Explained There are many different views when it comes to identifying the genre, or literary type, of this prophecy. The majority of which lie in how the original language and to be more precise how each particular...

...e Poetry and Figurative Language Paper ENG/340 Mark Jones Edward Wilson June 12, 2014 Introduction Poetry has been used since time immemorial for passing information to the society. Poets have however used different stylistic devices in ensuring that their message has been passed to their intended audience. Imagery, rhymes, symbolism, among other ingredients of figurative language is among the commonly used stylistic devices that poets use. This paper seeks to identify imagery, metaphors, rhyme and structure in three specific poems and identifying the effect, which such figurative language has had on the content and the message of the poems. Robert Frost, The Road Not Taken This is a poem where the poet gives a description of how he met two diverging roads in a yellow road and took the road the road that was less travelled, a decision that brought the big difference in his life. The message presented in the poem is very moving where the poet is speaking about making a decision out of two competing situations. Imagery- the first line of the poem creates an image where the reader is taken to a yellow wood and the poet describes of the two roads at the yellow woods. In the second stanza, the poet provides an image of the grassy road that also wanted wear. This clicks an image to the reader on the condition that the poet was in and a description of the road. The poet in this piece has tried...

BRANDON JONES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS For BIBL 364 LIBERTY UNIVERSITY ONLINE BY e of Contents Introduction 3 Saul of Tarsus 3 The Damascus Experience 4 The Call 6 The Conversion Debate 8 Conclusion 9 BIBLIOGRAPHY 11 Introduction The Book of Acts is a literary masterpiece filled with stories of miracles, faith, chronicles of the growth of Christianity, Holy Spirit encounters, and stories of supernatural conversions. It is one of the main books of the Bible studied to learn about the power of the Holy Spirit and God’s ability to use anything and anyone for His purpose. The “call” of Saul was one of the most significant events not only in the Book of Acts, but throughout the Bible. Christians in the Twenty-First Century owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to the Apostle Paul for his courage and obedience in answering the “call” of God. The spontaneous response to this call has a direct impact on Christians, Jews and non-Jews all over the world. The reason Saul’s call was so important was because it was a fulfillment of Jesus’s Great Commission. Saul’s pedigree as well as his character made him the least likely candidate to become one of the greatest Apostles to the Gentiles. This paper will examine who Paul of Tarsus was, the importance of his call, whether or not he was converted, and the impact his decision to answer God’s call...

According to New Ungers Bible Dictionary, amillennialism is defined as follows Advocates of this view maintain that no Millennium is to be looked for except that which, it is claimed, is in progress now in this gospel age. This theological interpretation spiritualizes or, rather, gives a mystical meaning to the vast kingdom promises in the OT.1 Postmillennialism as defined by the New Unger’s Bible Dictionary This interpretation maintains that present gospel agencies will root evils until Christ will have a spiritual reign over the earth…then the second advent of Christ will initiate judgment and bring to an end the present order. 2 I believe that the premillennial interpretation is the most Biblical and represents the teachings of scripture more accurately than the other views. Post & amillennial are confused on their eschatological...

...Environmental Science 5. Tropical forests represent a large reservoir of underutilized timber. Why is it ecologically unsound to harvest most tropical forests? What are the potential long-term effects of deforestation in the tropics? Harvesting our Earth’s tropical forests is very ecologically unsound in many ways. These forests are being harvested and clear-cut in staggering rates and even if we begin taking necessary actions as a whole, worldwide, immediately we still may never get these forests back to where they should be in order to become sustainable once again. The most commonly known effect that harvesting the rainforests has had is the extinction of the majority of the world’s species. The tropical forests contain about half to two-thirds of the world’s species. (Chiras, P. 230) An average of 137 species of life forms are driven into extinction every day in the world's tropical rainforests. Destruction such as harvesting in rainforests have contributed to the loss of millions of acres of tropical rainforest. Animals and people alike lose their homes when trees are cut down therefore, most animals and other species die when trees are cut down. Larger mammals need several acres to be able to roam free and are trapped into smaller living conditions and several other species are only known to be living in one region and will not survive once their habitat has been harvested. Other animals that may not be native to these tropical areas also suffer when forests...

...SEXUALITY IN SEVENTEENTH AND EIGHTEENTH CENTURY PURITAN MASSACHUSETTS Liesl Schnuck November 1, 2011 Due to the strength of their belief in and fear of God, colonial Massachusetts’s society regulated women’s sexuality through a paradoxical relationship: women as saints and women as sinners. Introduction In the religion-obsessed society of colonial Massachusetts, Puritan beliefs dominated contemporary views on sexuality, especially with regard to women. Although Puritan ministers understood human nature’s inability to avoid sexual relations, they adamantly professed that sex must not interfere with religion. In order to create stability within their society, ministers and lawmakers turned towards the women to implement and describe sexual regulation. Women’s social function was not only complex, but also difficult to define. As historian N.E.H. Hull notes, “theirs was a special place, not altogether enviable—for in this land of saints and sinners, they were viewed as both saintlier and more sinful than men.” Not only did society expect and desire women to act morally, but society also feared women for their supposed tendencies to act corruptly. Carol F. Karlsen accurately differentiates between these two identities by naming these women either “handmaidens of the devil” or “handmaidens of the Lord.” This distinction demonstrates the binary opposition of women’s place in society that existed in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. By identifying these two opposing...

...Crimson Shadow Laura Jones English 102-92 12 June 2010 Loving the Untamed Artist Norman Maclean was a well-established English professor at the University of Chicago for many years before writing an account of his life in the western Rocky Mountains during the early 1900’s titled A River Runs Through It. Maclean focuses much of this account on the experiences of his brother, Paul, and himself. These experiences further centralize around the brothers’ primitive pastime, fly fishing. The plot twists through childhood memories and growing pains to unveil his life’s disappointments, risks, and losses. A few habitual values surface from within these pages. Through the relationship of two brothers, Norman Maclean’s A River Runs Through It depicts the values of unconditional love, self-control, and appreciation for art. Expressed with acute emotional detail, A River Runs Through It combines positive and negative experiences to give a clear meaning to unconditional love. Maclean does not waste many pages before giving himself a conscientious loving-brother image. The first negative circumstance which would hinder Norman’s perception of his younger brother, Paul, occurs early in the story. Norman reacts to this situation by “[standing] still until [he can] again see the woman in bib overalls marveling at his shadow casting” (Maclean 37). He thinks back to a positive memory of his brother before approaching his holding cell to take him home. Norman reinforces his character with honesty...
