...professional. In most of the cases, care givers at home may lack this expertise. It requires people who are trained and specialized, and who understand the medical aspect of the patients’ condition. The best suited group of people that can deal appropriately with these problems are nurses. Nursing is a health care profession and hence, their services are oriented to this direction. In their duty, they give care to all members of societies; both individual and families (Braverman, 1998). Nursing care is understood as being particularly crucial during patients’ recovery from serious illness or injury. Classically, it was thought that people requiring these services were probably people who were bed ridden. The objective of health services delivery is not only to care for bed ridden people but also anybody else that have a condition that is reducing their quality of life. It is known that some diseases significantly reduce the quality of life. Today, the aim of healthcare is to assist any person with any disease, ailment, or any form of suffering to recover and have a joyous and creative life. Another factor that makes a nurse to be specifically suited to their job is because they are trained about community care. They deliver care in the context of the whole community. They are able to reach the society or community and teach or assist them on the best way to care for various people needing care in a society.

...Catholicism and the World Nichole L. Lombardi Axia College of University of Phoenix Catholicism and the World I have never been a person of faith, so this paper was intended to further my understanding of Catholicism, how it works, and how it compares to one of the fastest growing religions in the world, Islam. I have known of the existence of Catholicism for many years, but the usual things I have heard about it have been the negatives involving scandals with the clergy or some other important announcement from the Pope. This paper is intended to give both me and the reader a greater understanding of what the catholic faith is and how it relates to Islam, as well as describing some of the practices involved in these faiths. I have completed an interview with a practicing Catholic in order to facilitate my understanding. What I learned in this interview will be revealed later in this paper. By the end of this paper, I hope to have a better understanding of what it means to be a Catholic or a Muslim. Most importantly, I hope to truly understand what causes people to believe the things they believe and embrace religion. The Catholic Church is one of the oldest of religions and claims to be the original form of Christianity. The teachings and practices of Catholicism are believed to be handed down from Jesus Christ himself directly to the 12 apostles. The Catholic Church has enjoyed a very colorful history that includes the Crusades, the great Catechism, and more recently...

...Big Bang Theory - The Premise The Big Bang theory is an effort to explain what happened at the very beginning of our universe. Discoveries in astronomy and physics have shown beyond a reasonable doubt that our universe did in fact have a beginning. Prior to that moment there was nothing; during and after that moment there was something: our universe. The big bang theory is an effort to explain what happened during and after that moment. According to the standard theory, our universe sprang into existence as "singularity" around 13.7 billion years ago. What is a "singularity" and where does it come from? Well, to be honest, we don't know for sure. Singularities are zones which defy our current understanding of physics. They are thought to exist at the core of "black holes." Black holes are areas of intense gravitational pressure. The pressure is thought to be so intense that finite matter is actually squished into infinite density (a mathematical concept which truly boggles the mind). These zones of infinite density are called "singularities." Our universe is thought to have begun as an infinitesimally small, infinitely hot, infinitely dense, something - a singularity. Where did it come from? We don't know. Why did it appear? We don't know. After its initial appearance, it apparently inflated (the "Big Bang"), expanded and cooled, going from very, very small and very, very hot, to the size and temperature of our current universe. It continues to expand and cool to this...

...NAME English Comp 201 Professor Harvey February 5, 2014 Should Individuals Without a Government Issued License be Able to Practice Law? Majoring in the legal field has always been a dream of mine. As a little girl, I dreamed of serving the public, sitting in a courtroom and putting “bad guys” behind bars all in a day’s work. I then imagined myself leaving the courtroom and treating myself to a shopping spree, manicure and massage all on a lawyer’s salary. I thought I had everything figured out and life would be perfect as I rode off into the sunset with Prince Charming wearing my suit, and carrying a briefcase. Since then, I have learned law is much more complex than I ever imagined and the idea of a perfect career began to blur right before my eyes. I then decided a career as a paralegal was a better fit for me. I started the path to my career as a paralegal at Minnesota State University Moorhead, and even took an introductory course last fall. One day, my professor asked the class if we thought practicing law without a government issue licensed was considered the unauthorized practice of law. The class began a debate that took nearly the entire class period. It was that moment I became aware of the changes that lie ahead in the legal field before I get my degree. In the last year, a hot, new topic has starting being discussed in the legal field and has created controversy and difference in opinion amongst all fifty states. The controversy began when Washington legalized...

I hope these suggestions will encourage you to value how precious time is, how important is to prioritize your goals in life and to encourage you to start organizing your time more purposefully. In the business world time is money. This may sound out of the ordinary, but in many cases small companies and entrepreneurs lose sight of how important it is to spend your time on the key elements which will bring the success of the company. The majority of time people do complain that they do not have enough time. You may see this scenario on professionals handling a business or even in their personal life, the lack of time is due to lack of organization. The reality is that in order for you to become a great time manager you need to organize yourself. One of the main things to do is to prioritize and to make a to-do list. You see what is important and what task is time sensitive when you have a list. Professionals need to work smarter not harder. In general people have this misconception because they are working harder they are accomplishing their goals. When in reality they notice not much has been accomplished and most of the time they end up redoing the task at hand because...

...Abstract The purpose of this paper is to discuss and analyze images, anxieties, and attitudes towards mathematics in order to foster meaningful teaching and learning of mathematics. Images of mathematics seem to be profoundly shaped by epistemological, philosophical, and pedagogical perspectives of one who views mathematics either as priori or a posteriori, absolute or relative, and concrete or nominal. These images, as perceived by an individual can play a significant role in the development of attitudes towards mathematics in the long run. Images of mathematics can have possible negative and positive impacts on teaching and learning of mathematics with the subsequent development of attitudes toward mathematics as positive or negative and also associated mathematics anxiety. A theoretical model with different combinations of images, anxieties, and attitudes toward mathematics can be a helpful tool to develop an understanding of the different relationships among them. Some pedagogical implications can be drawn from these relationships. Key Words: Image of mathematics, Mathematics anxiety, Attitude toward mathematics, Affect in mathematics education Introduction How do students perceive mathematics in schools? What are different images of mathematics that students perceive? How these images impact their learning? What is math anxiety? What are the causes of math anxiety? What is the relation of image of mathematics as perceived by students with math anxiety? What...
