Edwards Syndrome: Trisomy Eighteen

...diploid cell (Pearson School 2011). Twenty-three chromosomes are present in each cell. Once the sperm and the egg meet, Meiosis begins. This process of splitting cells and DNA replication can result in genetic information to be transferred, deleted, or relocated on accident. Twenty-three chromosomes from the father and twenty-three chromosomes from the mother combined, resulting in forty-six chromosomes in each cell. A congenital abnormality that results from an extra copy of chromosome eighteen is called Edwards’ disease or Trisomy eighteen. During Meiosis, chromosome eighteen is duplicated three times, causing developmental issues that are life threatening. This genetic defect in most cases causes the fetus to be stillborn at birth (Trisomy 18 foundation, 2010). According to Thomas Weiss, “Edwards' syndrome is associated with a broad spectrum of abnormalities which consist of greater than one-hundred and thirty discrete defects involving the brain, heart, craniofacial structure, kidneys and stomach.” The purpose of this paper is to examine what Edward’s syndrome is: diagnosing, symptoms, treatment/management and prognosis. Diagnosing Diagnosing a Trisomy Eighteen infant, starts with genetic testing when the infant is in utero. A Trisomy Eighteen chromosomal defect occurs one out of every six thousand births. Genetic testing is preformed after ultrasound detects abnormalities. An ultrasound alone is not able to diagnosis an infant with Edwards’ Syndrome. This is used as a routine...

A Bbfc Case Study: This Is England (Bbfc Film Rating)

...BBFC – This Is England. This is England is a British film written and directed by Shane Meadows in 2006. The film revolves around the life of a young boy facing social challenges, who later finds company with a young group of skinheads in 1983. The film highlights the origin of their subculture, which can be traced back to the 1960’s. The film also highlights the social issues that were dominant within the society, as well as the division between skinheads in the society because of their nationalist views. Becuase this film was produced in UK, the film had to undergo certain levels of scrutiny under media regulation bodies. According to the Oxford Dictionary of Media and Communication, media regulation is the “control and supervision of organizations exercised by external authorities through the application of rules.”(ODMC 2011). The setup of regulation bodies in a society stimulates domestic production of films, and guarantees public interest when watching films within the region affected. The British Board of Film Classification, commonly known by its abbreviation, ‘BBFC’, is a non-profit regulatory organisation in the United Kingdom, setup in 1912 as an independent body to bring a degree of uniformity to the classification of film nationally, and test their suitability for viewing in the home. The BBFC is the regulatory body for films produced and distributed in the UK. They examine “issues such as discrimination, drugs, horror, imitable behaviour, language, nudity, sex, sexual...

Sonnet 18 Analysis

...Sonnet 18 Shakespeare In "Sonnet 18" by Shakespeare the speaker poses a question to himself as to how to best immortalize his beloved subject. At first he compares his love to a summer's day, which the speaker sees as most beautiful. However, he finds the metaphor imperfect so he decides through internal debate and poetic expression that the best way to immortalize his love is through his own poetry. This method eternalizes both his love for her and her beauty in written words. By exploring the contrast between the subject's beauty and a summer's day, the author proves that love can withstand the course of time. The line "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day" (1) opens the speaker's debate with a comparison between his love and the season of summer; the author questions whether the beloved subject should be compared to a summer's day. In the consequent lines, the narrators begins to compare his subject to a "summer's day" and answer the question posed in line one, and right away makes the point that the subject is superior to summer, with the line "thou art more lovely and more temperate" (2). The faults of summer continue to be proven with phrases such as "rough winds" which describe summer's temporary nature. Unlike summer, "rough winds" do not shake the subject's beauty .The examples made regarding summer in the first quatrain show that summer's beauty does not last forever, it is merely a time of year that passes within a short period of time . Each subsequent...

Sonnet 146

...Sonnet 146 Denise Kontara William Shakespeare's 'Sonnet 146' reads as an internal monologue, fundamentally the protagonist is addressing himself. Although the use of transition between multiple metaphors has often been critiqued. As Fred Hasson (2013) suggests “The metaphors are choppy, jumping quickly from the mansion to the worms, and then to Death eating man and vice-versa. The "cost" theme mixes uneasily with the soul/body comparison.”, through a powerful use of metaphor as well as religious notions, the poet brings light to the idea of materialism and earthly greed as catalysts for the souls entrapment in the body and furthermore addresses the potential escape from such boundaries into eternal life. Despite it's ability to appeal to both Christian and Non-Christian audiences, Sonnet 146 has been often declared one of Shakespeare's more Christian poems (David E. Anderson, 2005). This very accurately acts as a reflection of the poems context, with legal requirements on churches to read Psalms from The Book of Common Prayer monthly at the time. Richmond Noble (1940, p4) in 'Shakespeare's Biblical Knowledge' lists at least 135 Psalm references in Shakespeare's plays, also vouching for other such references in the sonnets. Shakespeare's awareness and furthermore use of several Pauline paradoxes becomes apparent through the close study of the thematic structure and development...

Sonnet 18 Analysis

...Eternal Beauty In Shakespeare’s “Sonnet 18”, the narrator employs an extended metaphor when comparing the addressee to a “summer’s day”. The metaphor is emphasized by the tone shift in line nine, and the comparison is finalized by a couplet that expands on the theme of immortality. The sonnet makes it clear that the individual’s beauty and vigor cannot be compared to commonplace nature and that the individual is something more than human. Sonnet 18 is part of the group of sonnets that is written to address men. In this particular one, Shakespeare compares the man’s beauty to that of nature, particularly a day in the summer. The first quatrain begins the extended metaphor by implying that the man being addressed has all the qualities of a summer’s day. This immediately associates the man with the sun and all of its qualities: he is strong, bright, and full of energy. However, by writing: “Though art more lovely and more temperate,” in line two, Shakespeare illustrates the fact that although the best thing nature has to offer, a summer’s day is far from perfect. The first shift happens in line three; the narrator stops talking about the man and begins pointing out the imperfections of summer. He employs vivid imagery to argue that summer’s beauty is hurt by “rough winds” and its “lease hath all too short a date,” (4). Shakespeare also adds that summer may sometimes be too hot, and other times its “gold complexion [is] dimm’d,” (5). This emphasizes the qualities of the man; he...

France in 1799

...Napoleon Bonaparte was a great French soldier. Born to a Nobel French family in 1769 on the island of Corsica, he moved to France in 1777 and joins the Royal military School located in Brienne, later helping the country defeat Britain at Toulon during the French Revolution. In reward, he was made a Brigadier General. He later commanded a thirty thousand man French army in Italy, leading them to victory against the Austrians in 1779 (Fremont-Barnes, 2010). After this victory Napoleon negotiated the Treaty of campo Formio, earning him significant popularity upon his return to France. In Paris, the Directory has lost favor with the people because it concentrates more on waging war across Europe rather than addressing the problems facing the citizens mostly unemployment. When Napoleon learns that the Directory is losing power, he quickly returns from Egypt to Paris to cease the opportunity through a military coup, becoming the first Consul in the new government in 1799. The event marks the end of the chaos caused by the French Revolution, and Napoleon stands out as the savior of the country from the chaos of living in Paris in 1799 through his actions both inside and outside France depicted in the events below: July 25th 1799 Napoleon leads the French army to victory over the Ottoman army led by Seid Mustafa Pasha at the battle of Abukir to prevent any attempts by the British to end French rule in Egypt. The act is a clear indication that Napoleon is ready to protect French...

Oil Price Variation

...OIL PRICE VARIATIONS INTRODUCTION ..... .... .... So in this chart wich is a line graph chart we can immediately see that in 1960 oil price gradually declined from 1.0 to 0.5 % of the gdp per head in 1970 Then we can observe a slight rise from 1970 to 1973 From this moment (1970) oil price skyrocked till 1974 Between 1974 to 1978 oil price decreased from 2.0 to 1.6 % of the gdp per head Then oil price sharply increased to reach a peak in 1980 From 1980 to 1984 oil fell from 3.4 to 1.9 % of the gdp per head CONCLUSION first we would like to say that on the period of the graph GDP has grown steadily. In 1960 it was 1600 US dollars per head / capita whereas it is 42000 US dollars per head / capita today To conclude we can say that for oil price there have been 3 big trends. So the first trend was an upward trend who appeared between 1960 and 1980. The second one has appeared from 1980 to 1997 and has been a downward trend. And finally there have been a third one who was an upward trend from 1997 to our current days. We can also say that people have been right to think that oil price never been so high that now because with our money (the Euro) it is the case. But in the same time salary has also increased, it has doubled. In fact the price of gasoline has been divided by 2 compared to the salary. Another way to understand that is that in reality a regular person has to work half long in 2010 than in 1970. For the future we can imagine that oil price...

Manned vs Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Combat

...ABSTRACT The intent of this proposal argument is to show that manned aircraft should be utilized in combat and multi-role missions over Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. The major differences between manned and unmanned aircraft will be explored. The issues of cost, payload capacity, situational awareness and effectiveness, their role in combat conditions, and the pilot’s decision making capabilities in both aircraft will all be covered in the proposal. In addition, the history and how each type of aircraft came about will be discussed in order to show the experience level and usefulness of manned and unmanned aircraft. Many of the current ideas the military has about what should be the course of action when it comes to manned and unmanned aircraft will be included. Any good or bad consequences of the current proposals will also be discussed. Finally, the future for manned and unmanned aircraft will be reviewed. INTRODUCTION The United States Navy’s manned aircraft are more effective in aerial combat and multi-role missions than Unmanned Arial Vehicles or UAV drones. Exclusively utilizing unmanned aircraft in place of manned fighter and attack aircraft could lead to military failures in combat situations. Pilots controlling the Unmanned Arial Vehicle or UAV drones from remote locations are incapable of making split second decisions or having the awareness that pilots in the cockpit on location possess. Over the past 80 years, the U.S. Navy has trained some of the most elite...

Home, the Deep Blue Sea

...Home, The Deep Blue Sea Leaving home was probably one of my biggest fears of my life. Stepping out of Texas, with only a back pack and the clothes on my back, and going into a whole new world. The United States Navy helps several people become independent to: see the other side of the picture, discover one’s weaknesses, teach how to build up financially and helps many become stronger physically but also emotionally. On the other hand, the Navy also destroyed sailors, soldiers and airmen’s sanity. Deployments not only destroyed my mind set; it destroyed several other people’s and many of their relationships, which most civilians will never understand why or even how. There I was, May 5th, arriving at aircraft carrier the USS Carl Vinson, fresh out of boot camp and I’m amazed at how huge this ship is. “Here’s your rack, Moreno. When you finish putting away your uniforms, Lawson will help you get to the mess decks.” Rack, enclosed bed, three walls, and a curtain for privacy from everyone else’s racks. The spaces between you and the person sleeping across from you was not even the length of your arms spread out. Our first deployment was just to get “Around The Horn”, around South America, because our duty station changed from Norfolk, Virginia, to San Diego, California. Our second deployment was six months long, probably the longest six months I’ve ever experienced. We were on a ship, more a city. It houses about 5,000 sailors. Just imagine the lines for “chow”, showers, computers...
