...Some of the protocols must be done as an inpatient in a hospital. One inpatient protocol is giving the infant medication that is similar to the type of drug they are addicted to. This allows the infant to slowly ween off the drug rather than stopping it suddenly. Another inpatient protocol is giving the infant intravenous therapy (IV). If the infant is experiencing symptoms such as excessive vomiting and diarrhea he or she may need IV therapy to prevent dehydration. The last inpatient protocol is giving the infant special baby formula that contains an excessive amount of calories. This ensures that the baby is getting enough calories needed to grow properly. Just as there are inpatient protocols there are also protocols that can be done at home. One common protocol that can be used at home is swaddling the infant in a blanket to sooth and provide comfort. Another at home protocol is giving the baby skin-to-skin contact by only placing a diaper on the...

...In the Homeric poems, epithets provide an index to the personality of a hero. When the poet invokes a particular epithet, a particular attribute or set of attributes is summoned to the performance. According to Theodore Klein, critics of Apollonius single out the pallid and ineffectual personality of Jason as the primary reason for the “aesthetic failure” of the Argonautica. He obtains the object of his quest, the golden fleece, in the end, but only via the help of a witch. He does finally return home to Greece, but only after having dishonorably slain Apsyrtus. Jason’s weakness is epitomized by the epithet amechanos, which may be translated “embarrass” or “incertitude.” The table below presents a few epithets of Homeric heroes: Achilles “Son of Peleus” “Swift-footed” “Breaking through men” “Lion-hearted” “Like to the gods” Aeneas “Son of Anchises” “Counselor of the Trojans” “Lord of the Trojans” “Father” “Loyal/Pious” Agamemnon “Son of Atreus” “Wide-ruling” “The Lord Marshal” “Powerful” “Shepherd of the People” “Brilliant” The unprepossessing figure of Jason is further sunk in relief against the more dominating personalities of the heroes in his crew. The timorous captain often finds himself deferring to the decisions of Heracles and other great heroes of classical lore. Whither Jason? Some have argued that the kind of heroism which the Argonautica highlights is collective heroism;...

...At this point it is still unclear as to how true this is, but my dad quit smoking after 20 years by using electronic cigarettes. After using it for a while he eventually bought some vapor without nicotine so he could ween himself off of the e-cigarette. It was a very difficult thing for him to do, but having something else to imitate the actions of smoking helped him to quit. E-Cigarettes are becoming increasingly popular among teens, and although many states have banned sale of e-cigarettes to minors they can often find them online or at mall kiosks. It is believed that the wide array of cartridge flavors, such as coffee, mint, candy, and fruit flavors, makes them more appealing to this age group. Little may be known about the health risks, but there is evidence that shows this could be an introductory product for youth who then go on to use other tobacco...

In Erikson’s second stage, he states that children from the ages of one in a half to three years old go through a stage where they want to try everything out themselves. They are discovering that they have these certain skills and independence. This stage is called Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt. During this stage, these young toddlers are starting to ween off of their parents for every single thing. They are walking at this point, so being carried everywhere is not an issue. At this stage, the child is also picking what toys they want to play with and what foods they want...

...Thoreau lived his life in the moment. He did not believe in having material possessions like many of the people of his time and of today. He believed in taking the world in with every breathe and moment he spent on this planet. This led him to value freedom. He believed in never being chained down, never committing oneself to a certain life or lifestyle unless they had lived and experienced life to what he deemed as appropriate prior to doing so. In this passage Thoreau uses a literary analogy to describe a belief that he holds. He compares the act of farming to the act of living life and making the decisions in that life as well as escaping the confines that government places on it’s citizens. "All that I could say, then, with respect to farming on a large scale, (I have always cultivated a garden,) was, that I had had my seeds ready. Many think that seeds improve with age. I have no doubt that time discriminates between the good and the bad; and when at last I shall plant, I shall be less likely to be disappointed. But I would say to my fellows, once for all, As long as possible live free and uncommitted. It makes little difference whether you are committed to a farm or the county jail.” ~Thoreau, 1024. This passage occurs right after Thoreau speaks of the only home that he actually purchased in the Hollowell farm. He spoke about how he never wanted to purchase a place because he then was stuck in that one spot. He had planted his roots and could not observe the beauty...

Sosio-ekonomiese probleme kan gesien word as, ’n kwessie wat betrekking tot, of wat 'n kombinasie van sosiale en ekonomiese faktore is. Dit kom neer op ekonomiese probleme wat die gemeenskap raak of ekonomiese probleme wat ontstaan as gevolg van die gemeenskap. Die volgende kwessies kan as voorbeelde van sosio-ekonomiese probleme in Suid-Afrika beskou word: Misdaad, armoede, werkloosheid, MIV/VIGS (of soortgelyke groot skaalse siektes), stakings, die probleem met handboeke in Limpopo, regstellende aksies, grondeise(hierby inbereken die agter uitgaan van landbou in geheel). In die studie sal daar slegs op drie uitdagings gekonsentreer word wat as van die belangrikste sosio-ekonomiese kwessies geag word, naamlik die landbou sektor in Suid- Afrika, Eskom en die effek van die wanbestuur en laastens die huidige regering waar onder meer werkloosheid...

...ween Essays and Research Papers Not all writing assignments are created equal. We’re sure this is something that students around the world have discovered – the hard way. It almost seems purposefully unfair. One type of writing is difficult enough, but teachers want to throw all different writing brands, styles and formats into the mix. You’ve got APA paper, term papers, research papers, standard essays, reports, etc. Amidst all these writing assignments, two stand out as the most commonly assigned. Essays and research papers are, above all, the biggest and most common headache for students. However, understanding the crucial differences between these two assignments may help students to tackle them better in the future. What is an Essay? An essay is a simple composition with three basic parts: the introduction, the body, and the conclusion. The introduction is the first sentence of the essay, and works to introduce the topic of the piece, as well as the writer’s response. An essay could centers around a) the writer’s response to a question, b) an examination of a topic, c) a reaction to a text or d) an opinion supported be evidence. The evidence provided in an essay can center around personal experiences or unbiased factual support. The conclusion of an essay works to sum up the writer’s major points, opinion or position. In essence, an essay is a composition used to examine a topic in a brief but detailed and organized way. Most essays only span a few pages, and some only...

Broom showed a $4,010 checking account balance. The bank didn’t return check No. 124 for $1,080 and check No. 138 for $720. A $3,200 deposit made on October 30 was in transit. The bank charged Broom $12 for check printing and $18 for an NSF check. Broom forgot to record a $30 withdrawal at the ATM. The bank also collected a $400 note for Broom. Prepare a bank reconciliation. Bank Balance 2,950.00 Less outstanding ck# 124 (1,080.00) Less outstanding ck# 138 (720.00) Add deposit in transit 3,200.00 Adjusted Bank Balance 4,350.00 Book Balance 4,010.00 Less bank fee for checks (12.00) Less bank fee for NSF (18.00) Less ATM withdrawal (30.00) Add Broom note collected 400.00 Adjusted Book Balance 4,350.00 2. Erasers cost $5 per carton and pencils cost $7 per carton. If an order comes in for a total of 15 cartons for $85, how many cartons of each were bought? 5e + 7p = 85 e+p = 15 Solve the simultaneous equations. Another way to look at it si that you buy 15 cartons of erasers at $5 each. You still have some money left over. Now, for a carton of erasers and $2 (That's $7-$5), you can get a carton of pencils. 3. The price of a hamburger increased from $1.10 to $1.59.

...easier to keep you down when you can't find which way is fucking up!”. Eventually her father got her into rehab. That sobriety lasted about a week, at best, and she was gone again. And then that happened again and again and again. Until she had been in various rehabs and detox programs 13 times. She's just lucky her father had a good job with good insurance otherwise I don't know what they would have done. Even today she's still technically hooked on opiates, she just takes a sub-lingual medication called Suboxone, which makes the body think they've taken an opiate while preventing the person from being able to get high from heroin if they do try to use. To me it's at best a band aid for the problem, eventually she's going to have to try to ween her body off of that, what happens then? Does the cycle start over again? If it does I'm out, we can't be friends anymore or more accurately I can't be friends with her anymore, I can't watch that again, maybe I'm just not strong enough. One of the hardest things I've ever had to watch was my best friend cooking up heroin and injecting it into her arm. I've no trouble admitting that watching that made me cry. From that particular story though I learned how far reaching and damaging drug addiction is and not just for the addict but their friends and family. However, I think we as a society are taking the wrong approach, by throwing junkies in jail as opposed to treatment. Which is to say drugs and drug addiction are health care issues, not...

...in the beginning of the film to appeal better when dealing with the issue of consent, since in the ending of the fable the much older prince stumbles upon her in the forest and kisses her while she is asleep. Today many argue this Disney scene encourages and normalizes to young boys and girls that it is romantic to kiss someone without their consent, especially if they are sleeping. The part that is often left out of Snow White remakes is her vengeful side. Snow White and the prince invite everyone to come to their wedding party, including Snow White's stepmother. Meanwhile, the queen, still believing that Snow White is dead, again asks her magic mirror who is the fairest in the land. The mirror says: "Thou, lady, art loveliest here, I ween; but lovelier far is the new-made queen". This infuriates the queen. Not knowing that the Prince's bride is her stepdaughter, the queen arrives at the wedding and sees that the bride is Snow White, whom she thought dead. The couple orders for the queen to wear a pair of red-hot shoes and dance in them until she drops dead for the attempting murder of Snow White. Snow White and her prince live happily ever after. This story while disturbing and somewhat complex shows that fables are not supposed to be lighthearted and carefree. They teach values and show severe consequences of actions. The evil queens vanity led to her gruesome death. Snow White never acknowledges her power over others due to her looks, her humble attitude is what makes her...

...slaughtered and processed.” While this is an important step for consumers, it certainly does not do enough. Not to mention that it was fought vehemently by the meat processing industry. With the increasing public opinion in favor of localized food, they will lose money, and it is more expensive to label and track where their product is from. According to a 2015 Harris Poll about buying food locally, “50% (of US consumers) say it is an important factor in their purchasing decisions and an equal and opposite (50%) saying it’s not.” . Resisting Antibiotics This bill also takes necessary steps to fund organic farm programs, which give incentive to ditch antibiotics and growth hormones. Funding programs, although quite small, will begin to help ween the agricultural industry off excessive antibiotics and hormones. According to the USDA, the 2014 FARM bill “Expands funding to assist organic producers and handlers with the cost of organic certification…doubles from the 2008 Farm Act’s mandate to $57.5 million over the lifespan of the 2014 Act.” The bill also expands organic research and strengthens organic production regulations significantly. Expanding incentives to farmers to grow without antibiotics and hormones is the next best thing to banning growth hormones and antibiotics. • The Clean Water Act Environment The clean water act lays out pollutant restrictions for concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs).
