...Nanotechnology and Medicine There was a comic book character by the name of Swamp Thing that came out in the early 1970’s. The comic book became so popular a movie was made in 1982. The character (Alex Holsen) was originally a scientist that specialized in botany. Holsen was researching on how to rejuvenating limbs in humans using plant forms. The scientists arch enemy (Dr. Arcane) set off a bomb in Alex Holsen’s lab after stealing the formula to rejuvenate limbs. Unfortunately, the scientist was still in the laboratory when the explosion occurred, and was blown free of the lab into the swamp. A metamorphism took place while Holsen was down in the swamp, and when he emerged, he became a super plant monster known as the Swamp Thing. The parts on him that were destroyed in the explosion were now regenerated, reformed, and much stronger than his original self A large green muscle bound monster with algae grown into his skin. Nanotechnology fits somewhat into a category like this, but it's not all hype and science fiction the way television and the Hollywood scene have tried to portray it. If that were the case, we'd all be bionic men and women. Nanotechnology works at a small scale, meaning that it only uses a very small miscue that are no more than a human hair's width. It's already been found to be used in some items such as health and beauty products. Medicine is found to be the area that holds the most promising future for the field of nano technology...

...The Implications of Juvenile Criminal Statistics Chanel Walker 11/2/2015 David Purdy Crj/374 University of Phoenix The Implications of Juvenile Criminal Statistics Juvenile Delinquent (n): a minor who cannot be controlled by parental authority and commits antisocial or criminal acts,as vandalism or violence. Any person under the age of 18 is considered to be a juvenile. Fbi uniform crime reporting program is the basis of how data crime statistics are reported, tracked, and observed. Based on the data, the FBI prepares its annual Crime in the United States statistical compilation, which summarizes crimes known to the police and arrests made during the reporting calendar year. This information is used to describe the extent and nature of juvenile crime that comes to the attention of the justice system according to (Charles Puzzanchera,2009) (p.1). This report will summarize the juvenile crime statistics for the year of 2008. This report summarizes the overall decrease in juvenile arrests, and will also discuss the rise and fall of arrests in male, females, and minorities. In addition the assessment of tracking juvenile arrests, as a method of measuring the amount of juvenile crime and trends will be discussed. So strap in your seat belt and be prepared for a plethora of shocking discovery. Federal Bureau of investigations monitors four trend offenses reported by law enforcement agencies which are murder, nonnegligent manslaughter, forcible rape, aggravated assault...

...Running head: ANALYSIS AND IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE OF Analysis and Implications for Practice of Qualitative Research Report Analysis and Implications for Practice of Qualitative Research Report Palliative care education is an educational factor that could give education to undergraduate nursing and medical students on how they can be a part of broad management of the physical, psychological, social, and spiritual, needs of patients. Palliative care education is needed especially for those who will be involved in caring for patients who are terminally ill to assist them to obtain the best quality of life possible by providing relief of pain and suffering, controlling symptoms, and reinstating functional capacity. Nurse educators have recognized that traditionally nurses have not been well prepared in caring for dying patients. Research also has acknowledged that nursing students have nervousness about dealing with death and dying. Many aspects have been recognized as influencing nurses’, nursing students’, and medical students’ feelings towards caring for the ill. Providing palliative care to dying, elderly patients will always be a challenge for healthcare providers. In 2009, Germany implemented palliative care as an essential part of medical curriculum. In many western countries, the number of patients with multimorbidity is increasing which makes it difficult to care for them. As recognized by the ministry of health and health experts, teaching palliative...

...Issue in the implication of the concept of tabarru’ Tabarru’ is derived from the word tabarra’a which carries the meaning of contribution, gift, donation or charity. In technical sense, it is a unilateral declaration of intent, which is a contract with a particular nature in Islamic commercial law. Tabarru is basically to give a favor to the recipient without any specific consideration in return. Unlike the exchange contract, this type of contract is valid and enforceable in Islamic commercial law even without consideration. According to Dusuki at el., (2012), the definition of Tabarru’ is essentially a contribution or donation which entails no return but rather a reward from Allah alone. By the definition, we identified to important pillars which is the intention to perform Tabarru and the absence of counter-value. If any or both of the two are absent it is not considered as Tabarru’. The Prophet (s.a.w) said: “He who retracts his hibah is like the one who swallows what he vomits”. Thus, it makes it forbidden to retract the gift on whatever grounds or even to benefit from it in one way or other. Thus, the concept of Tabarru’ seems to apply that when the moment of a donor gives out his asset as Tabarru, he relinquishes his ownership to the second party who now takes full ownership and possession of the property or asset. However, the current practice in modified Wakalah model states that a donor or a participant can still be entitling to claim in the case of misfortune. Thus...

...Limitations and Implications for Future Research Several limitations of this study should be noted. First, the sample size was somewhat small, particularly with respect to analyses pertaining to communication and effort. Although this is understandable given the difficulty of securing cooperation from only Cypress students only, it would be helpful if investigators attempted to obtain larger sample sizes in future studies, and especially more diverse samples that include non students. Larger and more diverse samples would provide an opportunity to conduct more sensitive tests of how well the investment model predicts measure levels of commitment, communication, and intimacy in two groups of participants; those who are single and those who are in a relationship. Second, because our results are correlational and data were gathered at only one point in time, we cannot make attributions of causality with the two groups of participants; who are single and those that are in a relationship, if the levels of commitment, communication, and intimacy perspectives change over due course of time. Researchers in future studies of commitment and satisfaction in a romantic relationship use the longitudinal designs to follow the two groups of participants to observe developmental changes, thus controlling for cohort effects. Also, in future research, it would be helpful to obtain external corroboration of later levels of commitment and satisfaction of participants through a third person as...

...Water Control: Flooding Issues in Houston, Texas The purpose of this paper is to analyze and discuss the flooding problems in Houston, Texas. As a part of this analysis, this paper will assess the economical, political, and legal implications of Houston’s flooding. It will also explain the relationship that psychology has to environmental preservation, and will create a solution to the issue at hand. In the process of proposing a conceivable solution, this paper will discuss the economic, political, and legal barriers of the solution, how they can be overcome, and why this solution will be successful. Flooding Issues in Houston, Texas Houston, Texas is home to over two million individuals, and is the fourth largest city within the United States of America. It is located in the Southeastern part of the state of Texas, and sits roughly 50 feet above sea level. Houston is known for its famous nickname of the Bayou City, as it is home to over 2,500 miles of manmade rivers. These manmade rivers (bayous) are the city of Houston’s way of containing and channeling rain water to the ocean. This alternative drainage system was a much needed installation because of the city’s position, as compared to the sea level (Bayou Preservation, 2012). Currently, Houston suffers from severe flooding issues (i.e. flash floods, urban floods, river and bayou floods), and depending upon the area of town, the probability of high and slow moving floodwaters increase. As the city’s population...

...great distances, such as the famed Silk Road across central Asia that connected China and Europe during the middle ages. Likewise for centuries, people and corporations have invested in interprises in other countries. In fact many of the features of the current wave of globalization are similar to those prevailing before the outbreak of the first world war in 1914. But policy and technology developments have spurred increases in cross border trade investment and migration so large that many observer believe the world has entered a qualitatively new phase in its economic development. The current wave of globalization has been driven by policies that have opened economies domestically and internationally. In my essay I will explain the implications of globalization on Coca-Cola. History of Coke The Early Days Coca-Cola was created in 1886 by John Pemberton, a pharmacist in Atlanta, Georgia, who sold the syrup mixed with fountain water as a potion for mental and physical disorders. The formula changed hands three more times before Asa D. Candler added carbonation and by 2003, Coca-Cola was the world’s largest manufacturer,...

...General objective: The purpose of the study is to determine the relationship between accounting and information technology subject towards the developing world of business . Accounting, as defined by Webster, is a theory and system of setting up, maintaining, and auditing the books of a firm. Every business needs to have two prime objectives, such as, to earn profit and to remain solvent and the information in relation to these objectives while ensuring whether they are being accomplished is provided by accounting. Accounting is important in the sense that it enables a business house to maintain complete and orderly prepared records of economic events by way of preparing books while facilitating the information for various purposes. Furthermore it helps to ascertain the net results in terms of profit or loss (Income Statement) and providing the information about financial position of the business (Balance Sheet) to the owners of a business relating to what the entity owns in the form of assets and what it owes in the form of liabilities at a particular point of time. Accounting information is valuable to the concerned managers too so as to ensure whether the business entity is being directed as it should be, and simultaneously it is a means to provide the information to the investors to find out the future prospects of business. It is also useful for the employees and customers in order to know the condition of the business entity. (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/accounting) ...

...As Genetic technology evolves it has become one of the most controversial scientific developments. Some of the Genetic Technology controversial topics include the cloning and genetic redesigning of human beings. Cloning has been used strictly for animals, and this process has been done on a regular basis. There has never been a human being cloned to date, except for the form of natural cloning of identical twins. Genetic redesigning for human beings pertains to the option for parents to create a child in their perception. The parent can also choose to eliminate genetic problems such as Alzheimer’s. The problem with these aspects lies within the crossing of ethical boundaries, and how it will eliminate bio diversity for humankind. Advancements in genetic technology have become part of our lives in many unexpected ways. Genetic technology is used for prenatal screening to help determine if the fetus will be born with abnormalities. There is even a proposed benefit for eliminating disabilities in the future. Genetic technology is also used to help modify agriculture. Most of the food we eat has been genetically modified unless it is organic. Individuals, who criticize these genetic technological advancements, believe there is not enough time to fully evaluate how it will affect the human race and the ecosystem in the future. The topic of DNA Structure and Function relates to genetic technology. When developing new genetic technologies, it is important for...
