Introduction Trinity community hospital is located in the southeast of the United States with a bed capacity of 150 patients plus an intensive care unit of 14 beds. The hospital offers all the basic support services which include internal medicine, radiology, pharmacy, urology, general surgery, gynecology, neurology among other services. All these services are offered by a team of 89 staff members who are qualified and registered by the board. The campus on which the hospital sits measures about 25-acre that is easily accessible. Trinity community hospital has a main hospital and an addition of four medical office buildings (MOBs) with an area of 60,000 square feet. The management of the hospital is faced with the possibilities of constructing on its land, purchasing or to lease the area where the orthopedic service line will be established. All the three options available for putting up the orthopedic service line have pros and cons as it will be analyzed. Building Orthopedic Service Line The strategic plan of the hospital stipulates that over 5000 square foot of physical therapy and rehabilitation center is required in order to set up a regional orthopedic service line. In addition to this, a renovation of an empty space in MOB 1 is required to cater for oncology center. Advantages of Building Orthopedic Service Line In building, the hospital will get a style and exact design required of orthopedic service line. The constructed service center will be integrated right inside the hospital compound and interrelated with other core functions of the hospital. It will also enhance proper utilization of space and put into use vacant space like that in MOB 1. The hospital already owns the 25-acre piece of land, this translates to few legal requirements and procedures when setting up the orthopedic center as the buildings will be constructed on own land. This will lead to the realization of the strategic plan within the stipulated time. Most private physicians have leased office blocks at the expense of hospital scramble for space. The physicians can be relocated to create space and room for the orthopedic service line. One major reason for the hospital to construct an orthopedic service line is to boost its financial performance and at the same time maintaining confidence in the surrounding community. The established orthopedic service line will have a major impact only if the building facilities are brand new to create a positive perception to the community. Buying Space for Orthopedic Service Line The location of the hospital gives it an advantage of availability of unoccupied land adjacent to the hospital which can be acquired for the construction of orthopedic service line. Advantages of Buying Space for Orthopedic Service Line The Chief finance officer of Trinity Community hospital in his letter to the hospital’s chief executive officer has clearly stated of lack of enough space to expand existing facilities and has rooted for off-campus options for some facilities in the

The ancient world inspires every observer with the originality of different features which were arranged and developed. In this respect, the development of vital trends in the development of mankind at that time allows state advantages and disadvantages of the epoch. It means that social, economical, political, and religious/philosophical concepts are of great importance in the paper. Such parameters concern the comparison and contrast of two social phenomena, such as Hellenic society and Hellenistic civilization. A relevant similarity according to both periods considers the time shift which these types of Greek society represent. In this case, the paper searches for the arguments which designate each from both civilizations under the analysis. The polis-based Hellenic society of ethnic Greeks could not resist the flow of other nations after the death of Alexander the Great, so the Hellenistic civilization succeeded it. The comparison of both epochs in the history of ancient Greece is a way to demonstrate the growth of the social, political, and religious relations in the society. The thing is that both epochs are similar in their Greek “origin”. In other words, both contemplate the relation to ancient Greece. The Hellenic civilization according to the assertions of historians started its existence in 1100 BC, when Mycenae collapsed (Swain 1998). Thus, the cultural and social development of this early civilization was colored with the formation and further development of mythology, social relations, and political growth. The emergence of polis-cities dates back to the Hellenistic period. This fact makes Greece at the time one of the most developed countries in social, political, philosophical, and religious contexts. The era of Hellenic society reached its zenith in the 5 th century BC when the Persian invasion was defeated (Swain 1998). Moreover, the period is characterized by the growth of Greek cultural achievements in arts and philosophical ground. This tendency was increasing throughout the historical frame of the civilization. In the Hellenic period emerged commerce and banking which gave the way for governmental bureaucracy (Swain 1998). The main peculiarity of this period is the appearance of the polis. These administrative and territorial units were governed by the oligarchy and from the very beginning, the preferred form of governance was a dictatorship. However, in the 7 th and 6 th centuries democracies appeared in Greece and its city-states with the best-known Athenian democracy (Meyers 2008). In this period Greeks exclusively appreciate their origin. Importing most of the cultural achievements from ancient Egypt and the Near East, Greeks highly valued their language and their culture (Swain 1998). Thus, the moral and cultural identification of Hellenic Greeks is the fact that distinguishes it from the Hellenistic civilization. The Hellenistic period begins at the time
Introduction National parks of America are thought to be a treasure of sorts, as they tell a story of the previous generations and natural resources, as well as Nature itself. Many have specific features unique to a particular location, and all of them are rich with the history of native people. Analysis Archeology of the national parks has found may interesting objects that let the modern civilization to get a glimpse into the past and trace the development of older cultures. Pueblo culture is of particular interest to archeologists since there are many objects that provide an insight into how people lived and what were their daily activities. The national parks of the Four Corner Area, more particularly New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and Colorado contain many valuable cultural pieces from as far back as 12,000 years. Pueblo people were great farmers, made many tools and pottery (“National Park Service” par. 1). Prayers and religious rituals were a great part of the culture and often, pottery would be used in the process. An interesting point is made about healing, and how shamans or a medicine person would use the pots to prepare the “healing mix”. It is obvious that the process is a transfer of one psychological state into another. Religion was always the key concept in changing the person’s state of mind. People enter the condition of trance and are able to access great resources of their own body, as well
Introduction Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a common type of lupus, an autoimmune disease that may affect any organ or tissue in the body. The essence of this condition is the instability of the immune system and the possibility of attacks within the body (Fava and Petri 1). SLE is a serious and dangerous disease, and people must know its causes, diagnostic methods, and treatment options. Causes One of the most important issues in understanding the disease is the identification of its causes. Although there is no clear information, it is recommended to investigate environmental, genetic, or hormonal factors (Fava and Petri 1). Such triggers as smoking, infections (Epstein-Barr virus), or exposure to mercury or silica may provoke SLE (Fava and Petri 2). However, the conditions under which the immune system attacks tissues may vary, provoking further investigations. Current Research Many individuals and organizations are involved in researching the issues related to the chosen disease. There are many short- and long-term complications related to SLE, and some of them are negative changes in life quality, limited physical and mental functioning, and even employment challenges (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). In 2012, the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics criteria were introduced to identify at least one clinical and one immunologic criterion like anemia, leukemia, serositis, or hypocomplementemia (Fava and Petri 6). The studies help people recognize SLE early to be properly treated. Symptoms In SLE patients, the symptoms are skin rash, fatigue, and fever. In most cases, sick people experience pain and joint swelling (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). Depending on the severity of the disease and the possibility of other chronic conditions, arthritis, heart or lung problems, seizures, and psychosis may be observed (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). Rarely, but individuals should also consider hair loss, anemia, and headaches as SLE signs. Treatment and Symptom Relief Creating a treatment plan for SLE patients is complex because much depends on what organs are affected. The main goals are to achieve remission, low the SLE activity, and prevent new flares. Immunomodulators like hydroxychloroquine, vitamin D, and dehydroepiandrosterone or corticosteroids like cyclophosphamide or methylprednisolone are the necessary elements of medical therapy to repair damage (Fava and Petri 4; Sciascia et al.). Immunosuppressants and some biologics agents can be prescribed to reduce symptoms. It is expected to relieve skin rash, fever, and pain as soon as possible. Tests and Symptoms SLE diagnosis and testing are complex due to the same reasons as for its treatment. Regardless of the area of damage, blood and urine tests are generally required to understan
Introduction In the recent past, the entire world is facing an ever-increasing number of single parents. The greatest numbers are women; they form over 90% of the single parents in America (Countler 1). There are generally three forms that singlehood comes into being; firstly, out of own choice; this is whereby somebody decides he or she would not get into marriage but would like to have a child. The child may be his or her own biological child or it may be an adopted one, whichever the case parenting must be effectively done. Singlehood is an increasing trend especially in career women (Hetherington 45). The second one is through calls of nature this may be through the death of a spouse. Thirdly, when a divorce is granted there is the parent who bears the burden of bringing up the children. There is another way that is taking form especially in the developing country; this is “unwanted” pregnancy. The pregnancy has been recorded mostly from school girls as young as thirteen years. They at times get pregnant from irresponsible men and are given the challenge of bringing the child up. Taking the situation from a broader perspective the issue cannot be ignored especially in this era of test-tube babies. On the other hand, something is in society because society needs it. There is thus a need to give an opinion on how to balance the daily activities and the new responsibility that we have engaged in. Whatever the case, there is an innocent child that deserves a decent upbringing. A single mother has a decision to make whether to stay home with the child or to go back to work. She has to balance being the breadwinner and rising of the child. Too many single mothers have no choice but to go back to work after the birth of the child due to financial reasons. In this paper, I will give reasons why a mother must stay at home during the early childhood years versus working while fighting the problem of daycare and babysitters. Bonding It is during the early ages in life that a mother and a child develop a bond. The child at birth is innocent and ready to learn. The child is presumed “empty” and the parent has the power to determine what the child should learn. The bond created has the following advantages to the child; Security One of the ways that make the child secure is the existence of a caring adult, the child develops a sense of belonging. The first bonding is through the body scent of the mother. The scent of a mother gives the child a secure feeli
Today English is a language that unites various nations. People learn it to gain more opportunities in life and to communicate with foreigners. Still, learning English as a foreign language (EFL) can be advantageous only when a person is motivated. According to Khodashenas et al. (2013), motivation is the “the combination of effort plus desire to achieve the goal of learning the language plus favorable attitudes toward learning the language” (p. 766). It makes students willing to study and encourages them to achieve more and streamlines the very process of learning. Lack of motivation is thought to be one of the biggest barriers that is faced by parents and teaching staff. Lile (2002) claims that even indecent behavior in the classroom and underachievement are connected with this issue, as the student occurs to be unable to place priorities appropriately. As a consequence, less intelligent students have better performance than more bright ones due to their high motivation. Being motivated students become able to deal with the tasks of various degrees of difficulty. When the process of learning is taken into consideration, the primary purpose of motivation is to grasp students’ attention and desire to get to know something new and direct them towards it. There are two main types of motivation according to self-determination theory. Extrinsic one comes from the outside. It can be a wish to be rewarded or just to escape penalty. Intrinsic motivation, in its turn, occurs within a person. It is more general and can be seen as a desire to study. Carreira (2005) claims that intrinsic motivation refers to “motivation to encourage in an activity for its own sake”
Introduction The mass media has been instrumental in shaping and influencing the public’s perception of politics. It is what the media depicts that convinces people to react or vote in a certain way especially during elections. Let us take a look at the ongoing campaign trail and presidential debates in the USA and see the impact of the media on the public. The televised presidential debate in the US on October 3, 2012 The televised debate between the Republican Nominee, Mitt Romney, and President Barack Obama, recently received a lot of publicity in the media. It was clear that the former Governor of Massachusetts stunned President Obama in the presidential debate. Romney appeared to have had the issues facing the US at his finger tips like medical care. The media gave insights about the debate praising Romney of his stunning performance and criticized Obama of not being aggressive enough. It is true that Romney was outstanding but, in the real sense, one would have noticed that Obama made more sense in the debate because he gave more realistic arguments than Romney. Romney’s message was based on facts and statistics but what he said about the tax policy was far from the truth. After reading the newspapers and watching the ongoing events, voters were more convinced that Romney had been superb. Reports have been broadcasted that Obama will have to stage a dramatic comeback to survive Romney’s challenge in the coming presidential elections. The media, in most cases, only provides information on the overall events and happenings. It mostly points out what will excite the viewers in order to get their attention. The supporters of the Republican Party were pleased with their presidential hopeful during the debate. Obama’s supporters are eagerly waiting for the second presidential debate. Most people remain skeptical of Obama’s future and Romney seems to be warming up quickly. How do the media influence voters? With the November elections approaching, all radio channels, television news, and the internet are all talking about politics with a lot of commercials and intense advertising (Fourie, 2008). Probably, the candidate that each voter will vote for will have been a creation of the media. The young generation may be lured and influenced through social sites such as Facebook, Twitter, My Space and internet links, each talking about politics and who is the most popular candidate and why. The young generation will look more in each candidate’s failures and than his successes. The televised debates you see have only affected the aftermath of two elections in fifty years (Croteau,Hoynes&Milan,2012). This is because what the media presents on papers and televisions afterwards dilutes the mi
Introduction Ethics are key issues in project management. They entail moral values, rules and regulations as well as beliefs that are observed in a given task. Basically, it is differentiating what is right from wrong. While managing a project, there are various things and parties that are involved. An organization should therefore not completely look at the benefits or even staff motivation. Instead, it should focus on all the parties involved. In other words, it should be ethical. This means that it should not only consider its employer and employee but also corporate citizen. Corporate citizen in this case refers to the community around the project and their environment. It is important to note that sometimes upholding ethics in such a case may involve making difficult choices but all in all ethics should not be compromised. In this report, our case study project is drilling in Alaska. The mandate of this report is to study the project in relation to ethical issues encountered in its management. Drilling in Alaska The Alaskan economy is characterized by oil and gas industry. In fact a big percentage of its revenue is obtained from petroleum and its products. However, other activities such as fishing and agriculture of both plants and animals are used as source of revenue for its economy. The reason for drilling in Alaska is because it’s inland and offshore is well endowed with energy reserve. Crude oil deposits have been identified in areas such as Prudhoe Bay, North Slope and Cook Inlet basins. Two million barrels of oil have been recorded to be extracted by Trans Alaska Pipeline every day. In addition, the country benefits from bituminous, sub bituminous and lignite. The region is also a source of hydroelectric power, wind as well as geothermal energy. Oil drilling in Alaska is thus an important factor in the economy of that nation. It has resulted to industrialization which has increased the income and has improved quality of life for its population (Callicott, 1999). Ethical Issues Arctic Ocean Arctic Ocean is one of the unique features in Alaska and America at large. Important decisions whether to drill offshore oil and gas in the area is a concern of many. With its operating condition and its inability to cope with the spilled oil in the waters, the people involved should employ project management ethics so as to decide on whether to continue with their activities or not in order to favor the community that depend greatly on the ocean. The Arctic Ocean is not only beneficial to the community in terms of nutritional provision but also it is a heritage of their cultural well being. Oil and gas drilling would therefore mean threatening the community of people, environment including air and water as well as wildlife that rely on the ocean. Oil and gas planning project has already forced
