...It had been seven months since the government had made an official announcement that the virus had been completely eliminated. I was sitting on my couch watching a movie and relaxing, I didn’t have any desire to go out much anymore. My film was interrupted by a pounding on the door. “Michael, hey man open the door!” “Alright, alright, I’m coming.” I said after the eighth series of knocks. “Hey Nick!” “Let me in dude!” “Come in, long time no see.” I told him as he pushed past me. Nick had been my best friend all through school. We had also attended the same college for a while before the outbreak occurred. When it did, we both went our separate ways to be with our families. By the time it was over, we had lost touch with each other. Honestly, although I can’t...

My group had shifts during the day and nights to keep a lookout. David and Luke took the night shift because they were...

With any development, there are always processes and procedures that are necessary to make sure this is completed. With any processes, there is more than one way to accomplish the same desired results. However, with application developments, there are generally certain sets of rules. During research, I found several variations but ultimately, they all lead to the same end results. To begin the process, there are normally about 4-7 phases; the reason for the different number of phases is not because of the lack of work but there are some individuals who would combine phases together. Within each phase, there are specific characteristics that must take place in order to proceed and go to the next phase. The phases are as follows: * Project planning * Systems Analysis * Systems Design * Implementation * Integration and testing * Acceptance and deployment * Maintenance With this methodology there is a framework that should always be followed...

...syphilis that was negative, and advised her to visit the area main hospital for further medication. Unfortunately, she was diagnosed at Johns Hopkins Hospital with cervical cancer. In chapter 3, there is a presentation of medical conceptualization and treatment of cervical cancer, and description of the treatment of Henrietta at Johns Hospital. Dr. TeLinde at the Johns Hopkins was a leader researcher in this field, and interested in the demonstration of the then debate claiming noninvasive cervical cancer was merely invasive cancer. Cells were taken from her in the course of that exam and used without her consent in order to build up the first immortal cell line. In telling the story, the author draws from personal interviews and primary sources to offer insightful narrative accounts of the childhood of Henrietta, adulthood, her diagnosis, the illness, and tragic death. Rebecca expounds the HeLa’s birth and life and shows changes on the research concerning the realm of medical research, leading to both medical and scientific breakthroughs; however, also evolving and new policies about the research projects and patients’ rights. As the account of HeLa unfolds, the story of the surviving children of Henrietta as well unfolds, who for 20 years were conscious of the presence of the cells and the industry (multimillion-dollar) that developed around the use and production of HeLa.

...Horatian and Juvenalian Satire Satire has many definitions, but according to Merriam Webster satire can be defined as “A literary work holding up human vices and follies to ridicule or scorn” (Webster). This definition is likely used by many authors who exercise the application of satire. Satire has been in literature since ancient times; it is derived from the Latin satura, meaning "dish of mixed fruits," (Weisgerber). Many satirists have shared a common aim: to expose foolishness in all its guises — vanity, hypocrisy, formalism, reverence, and the intolerance toward those who hold different opinions from oneself (Moyers). As previously mentioned, the term satire was originally derived from satura, defined by Quintilian, a roman rhetorician (Clarke). It was later discovered that two Roman poets, Juvenal and Horace, were responsible for further defining satirical works by their literary tone (Moyers). Thus, creating a systematic way to categorize satire into two different types, Horatian satire which approaches satirical observations, literature and performance in a humorous and lighthearted manner, and Juvenalian satire, which focuses on specific verbal or literary attacks on corrupt ideals or individuals (Weisgerber). I view Horatian satire as clever and humorous and find that it generally mocks others. Horatian is not negative; it aims to make fun of human behavior in a comic way. In a work using Horatian satire, readers often laugh at the characters in the story who are...

Description of Law and order In the criminal justice system, sexually based offenses such as rape, torture, pedophilia and child-abuse are dealt with in New York City, by a special unit of detectives of the police department known as the Special Victims Unit. These crimes are then passed on to the courtroom for prosecution. Law and order is a crime-based drama, with a mixture of ‘court-room’ and ‘detective’, TV series, mainly shown on channel five.

...A disease is an abnormal condition affecting the body of an organism. It is often construed to be a medical condition associated with specific symptoms and signs.[1] It may be caused by external factors, such as infectious disease, or it may be caused by internal dysfunctions, such as autoimmune diseases. In humans, "disease" is often used more broadly to refer to any condition that causes pain, dysfunction, distress, social problems, or death to the person afflicted, or similar problems for those in contact with the person. In this broader sense, it sometimes includes injuries, disabilities, disorders, syndromes, infections, isolated symptoms, deviant behaviors, and atypical variations of structure and function, while in other contexts and for other purposes these may be considered distinguishable categories. Diseases usually affect people not only physically, but also emotionally, as contracting and living with many diseases can alter one's perspective on life, and their personality. Death due to disease is called death by natural causes. There are four main types of disease: pathogenic disease, deficiency disease, hereditary disease, and physiological disease. Diseases can also be classified as communicable and non-communicable disease. Terminology In many cases, the terms disease, disorder, morbidity and illness are used interchangeably.[2] In some situations, specific terms are considered preferable. [edit]Disease The term disease broadly refers to any condition...

...Existential counselling is a philosophical form of counselling which addresses the situation of a person's life and situates the person firmly within the predictable challenges of the human condition. Existential counselling considers human living to take place within four dimensions: physical, social, psychological and spiritual. It shows each of these dimensions to be constituted like a force field, within which predictable paradoxes, tensions and dilemmas play out. Human beings can learn to deal with these tensions and conflicts more effectively by facing up to the negatives as well as the positives of their lives, including the tensions of life and death, love and hate, strength and weakness and meaning and absurdity. Best known authors on existential counselling are Irvin Yalom in the USA through his book Existential Psychotherapy (1981) New York: Basic Books and Emmy van Deurzen, who created the British School and who published her bookExistential Counselling and Psychotherapy in 1988 (London: Sage Publications; second edition 2002, third edition 2011). Existential therapy essentially helps deal with the problems of everyday living, such as relationship difficulties (both with Individuals & in Couple Therapy), anxiety/fear, food/body-image issues, addictions, mood disorders, social anxiety, panic, trauma, low self-esteem, unresolved childhood issues, sexual issues and others. It is a clear, direct and honest approach helping clients work on their particular, unique...

The methodology is the overall approach you select to conduct your research – for example, whether you will use a scientist or social; science methodology. It includes the specific methods you will use and the literature search to contextualise your project within existing knowledge and understanding of the subject. Primary research involves seeking new knowledge that has not been previously published. The researcher gathers new data from participant or by examining objects, material or data in a different way from previous studies.
