Introduction Urinary frequency is a disorder that can signify a range of other problems in a patient. It may be connected to other genitourinary conditions as well as cardiovascular and hormonal issues (Buttaro, Trybulski, Polgar Bailey, & Sandberg-Cook, 2017). Therefore, it is vital for a nurse to ask many questions about the patient’s health to narrow the selection of diagnoses. For example, to examine the patient’s present illness, such information as the amounts of consumed and voided liquid is necessary. Other questions include the presence of other symptoms and recent sexual activity. The patient should share which medications he takes and whether he has hypertension or cardiac failure. Data that is currently available may be a basis for such diagnoses as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), overactive bladder syndrome (OBS), prostatitis, and a urinary tract infection (UTI). Primary Diagnosis: Explanation and Treatment The primary diagnosis for this patient is benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It is a condition that often occurs in older men. BPH is an enlargement of the prostate which, as a result, obstructs the regular work of the urinary tract. The common symptoms of BPH are urinary frequency, nocturia, dribbling, incomplete voiding, weak urine stream, and difficulty starting urination (Speakman, Kirby, Doyle, & Ioannou, 2015). Moreover, the signs of BPH progress with time, which is also seen in the patient’s case. Overall, the patient’s complaints align with this diagnosis that can be supported by such diagnostics as cystometry, ultrasonography, and rectal examination (Speakman et al., 2015). Urine and blood tests may also help rule out other diagnoses or show kidney problems. Finally, the patient will be asked to keep a voiding diary for 24 hours, documenting the frequency and amount of urine. The treatment of BPH depends on the specific case of the patient. For example, some men require surgery to relieve the symptoms, while others get better on their own. If the patient has mild to moderate symptoms, one can prescribe alpha-blockers, such as Alfuzosin, 10 mg orally once a day after the same meal (“Alfuzosin,” 2018). If the patient’s condition deteriorates, it may serve as a sign of another problem– prostate cancer. However, early testing is burdensome and stressful, and, therefore, discouraged (Marroquin, 2011). Lifestyle changes are to limit alcohol and caffeine consumption, not drink liquids before sleep, and stay active. Differential Diagnoses  1. The first differential diagnosis is overactive bladder syndrome (OBS), otherwise known as bladder detrusor overactivity. It is characterized by nocturia, frequency, and a weak urinary stream. A defining trait is an urgency – people with OBS feel a sudden need to urinate throughout the day. It is also often followed by urge incontinence when one experiences an involuntary leakage of urine (Goldman et al., 2016). Cystometry can help diagnose or exclude this condition, but the patient’s lack of reported incontinence weakens the probability of this diagnosis.  2. The second possible differential dia
Fashion history includes garments that remain popular after hundreds of years and are always in high demand. One of such garments is a rather peculiar article of clothing known as a corset that makes a woman more gracious and elegant. Corsets may be a perfect illustration of the expression ‘beauty has its price’, and ladies from the past centuries were willing to sacrifice the health in order to look beautiful and win attention. For all fashion lovers, it is of peculiar interest to trace the history of corsets. Many sources cite Minoan Crete as the origin of corset (Steele, 2003). The excavations at palace Knossos revealed wall paintings and statues featuring female bodies wearing a garment reminiscent of a corset. However, there is not much in common between the Victorian corset which emerged in Renaissance and the ancient corsets (Steele, 2003). With this in mind, corsets that we know today originated in the Victorian era in the mid-18 th century (Winter, 2005). Some museums nowadays contain collections of iron corsets dating back from 1580 to 1600, however, those items are hardly articles of fashion. Modern scholars who have closely researched them agree that those metal corsets were probably orthopedic devices used to treat spinal defects (Steele, 2003). If one is asked to speculate on the nature and purpose of corsets, most probably, they’ll be attributed to the articles of fa
The article A Third Industrial Revolution was written in the year 2012. In the article, Paul Markillie, the author provides an intruding view of the future. The author asserts that the future of manufacturing lies in the 3D printing, additive production, and automation (Markillie 2012, p.1). According to the author, these technologies will be adopted in the future by the manufacturing firms. In addition, the author postulates that when the technologies come into play a third industrial revolution would be experienced. For instance, the technologies will enable designers and the engineers to design and build products that are currently uneconomical to produce. Notably, the author argues that when the future industries digitize their operations the world will witness a shift in the manufacturing industries from developing countries to developed countries. In the article, the author asserts that manufacturing industries are here to stay (Markillie 2012, p.2). However, he suggests that in the future the nature of jobs will change. Markillie points out that prior the year 2010, the United States lose more of its manufacturing jobs to China. According to him, increase in the cost of operation in the United States led to the reduction in jobs. On the other hand, China benefitted from the shift in labour owing to its low cost of operation in the manufacturing industries and availability of raw materials. Equally, Markillie suggests that in the future manufacturing industries would shift their bases of operations from developing countries to developed countries. The author attributes this shift to future digitization of manufacturing industries. According to Markillie, in the near future factories would depend on robots rather human beings for their operations. With the adoption of robots, manufacturing industries would relocate back to their mother countries creating more jobs and opportunities. If the future manufacturing industries digitize their operations, Markillie assumptions on how manufacturing industries will shift their operations to developed countries might not come into pass. With digitisation of industries, the cost of operation would reduce significantly. This would not only happen in developed countries but across all countries. It should be noted that advancements in technologies are embraced by all industries regardless of their geographical locations. This implies that with digitization it would be even cheaper to operate a manufactur
What possible causes of action might Barry Boozer have against the Bottomless Cup? The Bottomless Cup leadership was aware of Manny’s behavior. While vetting and signing up employees, it is the employer’s responsibility to ensure that he or she hires the best workforce for his or her business. In this case, the Bottomless Cup failed in the vetting process and the organization is liable for its employees’ conduct. Barry’s case banks on the fact that the employees knew Manny’s behavior before his employment. It has been stated in the case study that even before Manny was employed he had been involved in a fight at the same parking lot. Therefore, the owners of the organization should be held liable for Manny’s misconduct. According to the law, Manny’s conduct is generally viewed as negligence and recklessness. In employment law, it is the employer’s responsibility to ensure that his or her employees are acting in uttermost professional conduct. Serious misconduct occurs when an individual is involved in very erroneous acts. Manny’s behavior amounts to the violation of customers’ rights and the fact that his employers are aware of his propensity to commit such a crime, they are liable for his actions. Barry’s rights were grossly violated in o many ways during this ordeal (Cushway 45). First of all, he was physically assaulted by an employee at the Bottomless Cup. Barry can sue the organization for assault and damages caused in the process and this will be a viable and strong case against the company. Secondly, Barry can also sue the organization for damages in terms of the time loss, while he was hospitalized and also all the pain that he underwent through the treatment process. After the incident, Barry did not only suffer from physical pain but also emotional distress. By the law, if a customer is injured while on the premises of the business, the cost of medical care should be the organization’s responsibility. Therefore, Barry should sue the bottomless Cup to settle the bills incurred at the hospital. Besides, he can sue the organization for neglect which would be a very strong case, considering that the employers were aware that their employee had anger issues. Additional fact needed for further legal claims In this case, there is several additional information that is not so clear, hence inhibiting the ability to make more legal claims. The case has only mentioned that the customer was assaulted at the parking lot and no furth
Introduction Compensation presents one of the most preferable ways through which employee contributions are recognized. Compensation program s is evaluated based on various job responsibilities which are assigned specified monetary value. However, various forms of compensation are undertaken based on federal laws of which organization managers are expected to be familiar with. Payment for individuals, groups or excellent performances are done in form of executive pay, incentive pay as well as balanced scorecard. Organizations compensate their workers through various incentives supported by their company objectives. However, incentive pay for executives within an organization is usually different from that of other employees hence requires special attention. Such incentives either long-term or short-term are necessary for the purposes of developing some sense of commitment within organization’s leadership and workforce (Noe et al., 2009). Review of the case Considering that Xcel is a company dealing with environmental issues, Merit pay may not work well with its strategy on improving operations at the lowest cost. According to the case study, merit raise, works best during hard economic times since it caters for high cost of living. At the same time there are always high possibilities of prevailing conditions to shrink available range of increases. Additionally, merit pay spread pay increment evenly across all employees hence rewarding poor performance on the same level as good performance. Such method may ultimately not concur with the company’s strategy on lowering costs since it is expensive (Fossum, 2002). Spreading the merit pay evenly across all employees may benefit those who lazy around and cause frustration to hardworking employee
He was born in Saint Petersburg, formerly Leningrad (Weitz 183), and grew up in a 40 m2 apartment in a family of teachers. He was a B student and tried to earn some money from being a street cleaner. At the end of the 1990s, he came to Moscow in order to start a magnificent career of a politician and demonstrate his profound knowledge in politics and sociology that made him the Third and the current President of the Russian Federation. Yes, the story of Dmitry Anatolyevich Medvedev is full of unpredictable turns and situations that influenced considerably his life and attitude to people around. Nowadays, the name of Dmitry Medvedev is known to everyone; his manners and traits serve as the best example for young people, and his approaches help many people achieve necessary purposes and make the vast majority of dreams come true. If a student wants to know the way to success and recognition, one of the possible and the most effective options is to observe and analyze the life of Dmitry Medvedev. Being the son of two teachers, it is not surprising that the young Medvedev was aware of the best human traits, basics of proper behavior, and obligations inherent to every Russian citizen. As a great President of the Russian Federation, he demonstrates proper skills on how to arrange conflicts (the example is the 2008 South Ossetia War), improve the internal security of the country (the agreement with the Interior Ministry about the necessity of fights against organized crime and terrorism), and promote different types of progress within one particular country (Russia). As a good example of a husband, Dmitry Medvedev is married once, and his wife Svetlana is considered to be his schoolmate and school love. The development of their relations started in the far 1980s and was strengthened by the birth of their common son, Ilya. Medvedev has to spend much of his time working and thinking on how to protect his country and people who trust him, this is why it is possible to believe that his activities and duties of the President are all at expense of his personal life. However, strong relations, devoted love, and everyday support help to survive and become an exemplary politician for many people from different countries. On 7 May 2008, the third President was appointed, and Medvedev took an oath in Kremlin Place. He supported the reforms to improve the current conditions of education and bringing up children; he promised to break the monopoly of the Russian Federation to improve the existed political system, and now he pays much attention to the technological progress to support and protect Russian future generation. Some people may call his ruling weak and too primitive because of his constant support by the ex-President, Vladimir Putin. However, it is enough to admit that the strategies are chosen, but Putin had a huge potential for future improvements, this is why if Putin’s ideas have sense and power, it is possible to rely on them and think about the prosperity of the nation. And Medvedev demonstrates his confidence and desire to help and sup
Abstract In the current world of business, technology plays a crucial role in every organization’s performance. Every enterprise is struggling to find solutions to its operation setbacks. Food4all business is not exceptional; therefore, it will have to launch a technology such as the internet of things (IoT) or smart sensors for it to compete in the business environment. This technology will enable the management team and employees to control and monitor possible changes that are happening along the line of production and distribution to reduce the inefficiencies caused by the uncertainties that they cannot see and prevent easily. The technology will help improve customer relations, avoid wastage of food, and increase food safety and reliability in the market. This report analyses how Food4all can integrate IoT and smart sensor technology in the preparation, storage, packaging, and delivery of food parcels to ensure the safety and quality of their products. The smart sensor system refers to numerous physical gadgets that share internet connections, all transmitting and processing data. Internet of Things (IoT) or smart sensor systems include four key components: connectivity, sensors, user interface, and data processing (Junaid et al., 2017). The words ‘smart sensor’ and ‘IoT’ will be used interchangeably in this paper to describe a system with the aforementioned components. The smart sensor technology will help Food4all to improve its food safety, logistics and supply chain transparency, and packaging. Food4all prepares and packages meals using otherwise wasted food and such a process requires extreme precaution to guarantee safety to the end consumers. Transparency of the food details and sources will enhance customer trust in Food4all’s products (Sagar, 2021). Therefore, the organisation needs a technology that can ensure high food safety levels and provide proper packaging to relay substantial food information to the consumers. IoT technology will enable Food4all to tackle potential setbacks that may arise through the business operation. The IoT can be incorporated into the food preparation process, storage facilities, packaging, and delivery. During food preparation, sensors will detect critical signs such as temperature and send alerts to prevent overcooking (Sagar, 2021). Sensing devices will also monitor the cleanliness of the food preparation area and transmit the data to user interfaces where actions can be taken. Proper storage facilities are critical to maintain food safety, which is important considering that one of Food4all’s main customer targets are the elderly members of society

Introduction This paper is aimed at discussing the use of guitars in a non-Western musical tradition. In particular, it is necessary to focus on such a genre of Vietnamese chamber music as Ca trù that has a history of many centuries. Yet, for a long time, it was overlooked by musicologists and art historians. One of the tasks is to explain how the performers may use musical instruments that are similar to guitar, namely, the đàn đáy and đàn kìm. Furthermore, it is important to examine the cultural significance of Ca trù, especially the places where this music was played and the main audience of the performers. This discussion can show that contemporary music is much more diverse than many people believe. It is often assumed that guitars are used primarily in Western culture, however, this opinion is not true similar musical instruments exist in Asian countries as well yet, they may have different applications. It is possible to argue that đàn đáy and đàn kìm bear some resemblance to guitar; yet, they are used mostly to highlight the vocal of the female singer. Although their role is supplementary, Ca trù performances are hardly possible without these musical instruments. The origins of Ca trù First, it should be noted that in the majority of cases, a Ca trù performance requires the participation of at least three people, a female singer, đàn đáy player and a drummer (Wilcox 2010, p. 20). Overall, this genre is often regarded as a form of conversational song which means that the female performer can impersonate different individuals while singing (Wilcox 2010, p. 20). This person is supposed to play the main role in the performance. To a great extent, this musical genre can be viewed as recitation of poetry to musical accompaniment. In the twentieth century, Ca trù almost came to the brink of extinction, since it was heavily suppressed by the state. However, within the last decades an increasing number of Vietnamese people began to take interest in it. The use of string musical instruments Those people, who perform musical compositions of this genre, can use several instruments that may be similar to guitar. First of all, one can speak about đàn đáy because it is mostly used in this musical genre. It is a three-string plucked instrument that has a very long neck and a wooden body (Ooi, 2004, p. 925). When comparing a guitar and đàn đáy, one should focus on such aspects as their design and uses. Dàn đáy serves as an accompaniment to the female vocal. It has to emulate the inflections of the singer’s voice (Broghton, Eligham, & Trillo 2000, p. 265). Unlike the guitar, đàn đáy has only three strings. However, in both cases, the bodies of these musical instruments are not solid. It is believed that in the past the performers used mostly silk strings in order to create overtones that have a range of approximately three octaves. (Broghton, Eligham, & Trillo 2000, p. 265). It should be noted that this musical instrument is believed to originate from China (Ooi, 2004, p. 925). However, in the course of history, it was significantly modified. According to musicologist
