Blumenfeld, S. L. Why Homeschooling is good for America. Vital Speeches of the Day. pp. 763-766. Samuel L. Blumenfeld has spent the last 30 years writing about American education. In 1986 he was awarded an honorary Doctor of Laws by Bob Jones University. The article describes that homeschooling allows such principles of education as perfection, preservation of her reputation and moral stability. This highly attentive attitude parenst show towards child demonstrate that they place perfection before education and before certain moral, spiritual issues. Thus, the author sustains all parents should always keep track of their kids’ mental status and should detect the moments when they feel bad, the equilibrium between silence and a sincere task, the balance between paying enough attention to the child and neglecting some minor faults acquires essential meaning at times. Blumenfeld believes it is necessary to let the child understand that parents care about him or her, but at the same time not to impose their will and let him or her develop and grow their own way. This is probably the key to success in a family. This source will help to construct the paper and cite theoretical material on the topic. Colfax, D., Colfax, M. (1988). Homeschooling for Excellence. Grand Central Publishing; 1st edition. For over fifteen years, David and Micki Colfax have been educating their children at home, their efforts made possible to have three of their sons enrolled in Harvard University. The book describes that homeschooling is multidimensional notion. In practice it means that there are different ways of understanding education. That is the main reason of the numerous approaches that are used while defining the notion of education. Also, the term is rather general what implies on the possible differences in understanding this notion. Homeschooling education is a chance for personal development that is based of skillful cultivation of human talents. This idea is one of the few authors who connect education with the personal characteristics of a person. The main achievement is the explanation of the very essence of the term homeschooling. Education is connected to the idea of human freedom. Homeschooling mean the freedom of expression. The current culture is fighting for the fulfilment of the educational standards. These usually deal with the concrete embodiment of abstract values including such important ones as “freedom” and “growth”. This source will help to explain the main advantages and benefits of homeschooling and give examples referred to modern society. Cooper, B. C., Sureau, J. (2007).

Electronic medical and health records systems are gaining a wide-spread implementation in a variety of clinical settings, such as hospitals, private practises, and nursing homes. While such systems have their merits, it is crucial to use them accurately to avoid order entry mistakes that can harm the patients and impair provider’s clinical judgment. Certain safety features, such as barcode medication administration and interface improvement, have been proposed to address potential limitations of electronic health systems. Inappropriate usage of health information technology often creates room for malpractice. Staggers et al. (2008) listed medication prescription errors, lower quality of care, and efficiency drop as potential consequences. For instance, errors in medication prescription can result in adverse drug events if they are not intercepted (Staggers et al., 2008). Moreover, adverse events such as energy blackouts can halt the administration of medication in the long-term care facility setting (Kruse et al., 2017). Yu et al. (2013) also identified complexity of information management, data entry and retrieval as unintended adverse consequences which impair nurses’ ability to provide quality care. Essentially, virtually all of malpractice instances stem from incorrect usage or understanding of such systems. Barcode medication administration (BCMA) is a safety feature associated with improving the efficiency of medication administration. A BCMA system can decrease medication error rate and discrepancies in documentation in patient’s EHR (Staggers et al., 2008). Nonetheless, BCMA technology has its limitation as it impairs nurses’ workflow (Staggers et al., 2008). A better understanding of nursing staff’s work and interface improvements can help reduce error and dissatisfaction rates (Yu et al., 2013). In general, despite their advantages, electronic health systems management still has room for improvement. Overall, electronic information technology, such as EMR and EHR, offer considerable benefits in providing care in long-term care facilities. Nonetheless, they may have certain disadvantages if not used correctly. Therefore, it is crucial to continuously improve their usability and educate staff about appropriate management.
In the following article, the author cogitates about several aspects of different political structures, trying to understand and analyze their peculiarities. He considers such structures to be a system that consists of different interacting unit sets. The author states the fact that the structure concept is based on the idea that the main units and their aspects are combined in different ways. In his mind, it is the reason why different structures are organized. Everything is subordinated to the strict order. The author says that domestic politics are hierarchically ordered, and its structural components are in relations of super subordination. The author outlines the hierarchy which exists in the USA and shows connecting relations between different authorities. He says that the more developed a country is, the more complicated these relations are. This work states the fact that political structures reflect political processes taking place in the country. Political processes are the main components of these structures, and that is why the fact that they determine crucial peculiarities of the political structures is quite clear. The author compares the political structures of different countries, such as the USA and UK, in order to see all the unique peculiarities of these processes better. The author states that both countries have two major parties, who determine the countrys further development as they can choose the leader of the state and give him the plenitude of power. In Britain, representatives of one party select their leader who will become the Prime Minister of the country if they win the elections. It resembles the USA system. President elections depend on a leading party, whose head the President is. Both the President and the Prime minister can count on the support of their leaders in case of emergency. The Prime Minister has to preserve his partys unity as it is the only guaranty that his power will be saved. The author states the fact that usually, the Prime minister is an awful national leader; though he is a wonderful party manager, he has great skills in leading the party and solves some inner problems. However, the roles of the USA President and the Prime Minister are not the same. The USA President is usually identified with the whole state, and that is why he has to be a good national leader who will be able to lead the whole nation. The author continues cogitations about the role of the Prime Minister and the President. He says that appearance is often deceptive, and the Prime Minister is often taken as a very strong personality only because he is so ineffectively opposed in public. Moreover, he is usually blamed in case of some country’s economic failure. That is why there are two different approaches to the idea of leadership in the USA and the UK. In America, it is taken like a strong man performing the duties of the President. However, in Britain, it means that the
This article presents an interview with William Hodgman, an assistant district attorney of Los Angeles and a lead prosecutor, who worked on the selection process of the jury for the O. J. Simpson trial. Hodgman admits that the O.J. Simpson case was the collision of “external dynamics of celebrity, of media, of race, of enormous financial resources” (PBS, 2005, para. 1). He was asked to work with a prosecutor due to an early preliminary hearing and participate in the three-month jury-selection process later, regardless of his administrative position. Hodgman states that the prosecution was highly affected by the racial dynamics, and defense attorneys derived their benefits “playing the race card” (PBS, 2005, para. 5). They blamed William that he was asking questions of African-American jurors in a different way in comparison with non-African-American jurors. Later, Johnnie Cochran and Robert Chapiro, defense attorneys, revealed that they were forced by the environment to be focused on the racial aspect as African-Americans felt injustice and experienced inappropriate treatment by the police. William Hodgman mentions Chris Darden, an investigative attorney, and his prominent role in the legal procedure. The prosecution’s strategy consisted in a progressive and persistent proving of O. J. Simpson’s guilt from the evidence of domestic violence against his spouse, Nicole Brown, to her murder and Ron Goldman’s assassination as well (PBS, 2005). However, the fact of Nicole’s beating by Simpson “did not impress the jury” as well as the accuracy of the DNA test (PBS, 2005, para. 17). Hodgman hoped that the jury would make the right decision, and he went numb when he heard the verdict of acquittal. He believes that it was the result of unity and sentiments in the African-American segment of society. Reference Interview William Hodgman. (2005). PBS . Web.
During the period of Queen Elizabeth’s reign in England, the traditional public theatre was transformed into the professional theatre. That is why, actors and playwrights began to take the higher positions in the English society. The development of the theatric art in England was associated with the Renaissance period and significantly dependent on its principles when dramatists referred to the classical Greek and Roman tradition. As a result, a lot of theatres were opened or re-opened in London. The Globe Theatre was one of the re-opened theatres to present the new approach to the drama and theatric art according to the standards of the Renaissance. The Globe Theatre is closely associated with the name of William Shakespeare who was among the theatre’s owners and main playwrights. The role of the Globe Theatre in Shakespeare’s life is significant because the possibility to participate in the theatre’s The Lord Chamberlain’s Men Group and to write plays for the theatre’s performances contributed to the development of Shakespeare’s career as a professional playwright, influenced his personal life, making him one of the influential persons in London, and affected his works with references to the plays’ main ideas, themes, and motives. William Shakespeare is one of the most prominent playwrights and poets of the 16 th -17 th centuries. The period of Shakespeare’s professional growth is connected with the reign of Queen Elizabeth. The reason for the fact is the Queen paid much attention to the development of art in England and responded to the ideas of the Renaissance. During this period, the popular public theatre is replaced with the professional theatre. According to Thomson, the years of “crisis between 1597 and 1604 saw the beginning of the end of the ‘popular’ theatre. They also saw, despite the appearances of 1597, the end of civic influence over the progress and control of the theatre” (Thomson 6). Thus, the art of theatre became more independent and that is why it became more socially significant. William Shakespeare began to work with The Lord Chamberlain’s Men Group in the 1580s, and the Globe Theatre was reconstructed in 1599 because of the significant role of the group in the process. Montrose states that “at the opening of the Globe and the turn of the century, the drama of the public and professional stage was reaching an unprecedented level of artistic achievement, social importance, and economic profitability” (Montrose 20). Thus, the re-opening of the Globe Theatre meant the expansion of possibilities for Shakespeare to write his works and perform them in front of the public not only as a form of entertainment but also as the specific reflection of the social issues. The development of the Globe Theatre also influenced Shakespeare’s personal life and contributed to his income’s growth. Professional successes of Shakespeare in writing plays along with performing on stage were accentuated by the changes in the playwright’s social positions. The growth of the theatric art’s importance resulted in i
Hindu religion has several gods, who manifest themselves in human form, and then come to rescue man during a time of trouble. The gods Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva form the trinity in Hindu religion. Brahma is in charge of creation, having grown from the navel of Vishnu. He later made himself a goddess to enable him create the world and human beings (Bryant, 12). Vishnu is the most powerful of the three and is supposed to sustain the status quo. They believe that everything is in place the way Vishnu wants, and he stays vigilant to ensure things do not go astray. So far, he has had nine avatars, and it is believed the next will be a white horse. Shiva is a god of destruction. He is believed to reside on at the top of the Himalayas. He facilitates reincarnation by destroying old things and men. All these gods are depicted differently, according to the roles they play. It is essential to note that Krishna was an avatar of Vishnu. Krishna worshippers identify themselves with devotion to Vishnu (Vaishanvism), and the religious philosophy of Vedi (Bryant, 12). Beliefs Krishna followers subscribe to (ISKCON) The International Society for Krishna Consciousness, an association created in 1966. The late A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada moved to America in his old age and settled in New York, where he started the society. The movement was originally founded by Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, who instructed people on excessive dedication to Vishnu. A. C. B. Swami Prabhupada was inducted to the movement by his friends at the Guadiya Matha Mission, which was based in Calcutta. They worship by chanting the Krishna mantra and performing sentient dance routines around statues of Krishna (Bryant, 12). They believe in aim towards salvation in the end, and carry out several practices to help them achieve this, most notably lacto-vegetarianism. They also abstain from ille

In the end of the paper, recommendations and conclusions will be provided to understand the importance of the introduced strategies and approaches aimed at improving added values. The Concept of Added Value The process of creating customer value is now perceived as the key method for gaining competitive advantage (Christopher, Payne, and Ballantyne, 2002, p. 102). Nevertheless, despite the increased attention to this phenomenon of strategic management and development, there is no particular agreement among managers and theorists concerning what aspects and concepts are included into the notion of ‘customer value’. Christopher, Payne, and Ballantyne (2002) believe that this concept is made up of the following chief components: determination of company’s potential for creating the value, understanding what values a company provides to customers, and assessing which value can be created and delivered to customers in future for sustaining a competition. In order to avoid service marketing myopia, businesses should be more concerned with customers’ needs and preferences. Managers should be aware of the aspects and features customer pay attention to while buying a particular product or services and these features are constantly changing in the course of time (Baker, 2006, p. 130). Hence, this area of marketing should be taken into deepest consideration because of it influences the formation of global perspectives. The Concept of Services and Services Marketing Today, service marketing is acquiring great significance in the developed economies due to increase of competitive advantages and promotion of the globalization and integration processes (Bruhn and Georgi, 2006, p. 6). The leading international companies have taken the course on improving service marketing industry, placing an emphasis on customer satisfactions, customer services, and service quality (Hoffman et al. 1999, p. 16). In this respect, the global business perspectives are closely associated with c
Throughout American History, the demonstration of democracy, freedom, opportunity, and prosperity has been dominated by whites, particularly through the deliberate oppression and exclusion of the racial minorities. The ethnic and racial injustices witnessed today are a result of structural racism. This systemic vice is ingrained in every aspect of society, including policies and practices used in public and private institutions such as schools and government agencies. People of color, specifically those of black origin, are at the receiving end of the negative repercussions of this kind of racism. Consequently, in the book Citizen: An American Lyric , Claudia Rankin seeks to expose the horrid experiences African Americans go through due to the current and historical norms, practices, and policies that uphold white supremacy. Citizen: An American Lyric was selected as the subject of the topic’s analysis because it has exceptional attributes that relate to the subject matter. First, the literature was a New York Times Bestseller in 2015 and also won other awards such as the NAACP Image Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award in the same year. These achievements show how well the book was received and the magnitude of its influence within and outside America. Secondly, Claudia Rankin is an American author, poet, playwright, and essayist who has written numerous works. The fact that she is an experienced writer whose publications are appreciated all over the world makes the book credible. Furthermore, she is an African American who has, for a long time, fought for the rights of racial minorities through her poems. Consequently, Rankin’s narration is instrumental in studying systemic racism and its impacts on America. Citizen: An American Lyric narrates various racial prejudices experienced by American citizens in the 21 st century. Rankin combines several writing techniques, including images, poetry, and prose, to paint an infuriating picture of the blacks’ experience and negative ethnicity in the purported post-racial American era. The book uses the experiences of common figures in the country to expose the nature of systemic racism in homes, schools, entertainment joints, sports, online, and on television (Rankin 12). In essence, the primary objective of the author is to trigger the readers’ thoughts towards the devastating racism situation in America and the world in general. Rankin illustrates how the current state of the region is causing stress among African Americans and how the community is struggling to lead meaningful lives as a result. Citizen: An American Lyric comprises seven chapters, and each one of them utilizes different verbal approaches mixing prose, poetry, essay, and integrating components of artwork and imagery. The first chapter is in the second
Human Resource Management department was one of the core pillars of any organization, as it performed a vital role in the success of the firm. For this rationale, the human capital must be utilized properly in order to overcome the challenges facing the human resource department. An observation revealed that the key challenges facing human resource management in the Middle East countries were due to human resource policies formulated by the governments. The economies of the Middle East countries relied on oil and natural gas. The oil industry in the region faced various human resource management challenges brought about by ineffective policies and partly due to the strict and widely practiced Islamic religion (Vance, Paik and M, 314). One of the main challenges experienced by the human resource management department of the firms operating in the region included lack of enough skilled and talented workforces. The exceptional economic progress witnessed in the region was not at equal levels with the equally optimistic human capital development and labor, raising questions whether development could be sustained. A study carried out revealed that only 38 percent of chief executives believed that there were sufficient supply of labor in the countries. This resulted in the heavy dependency on emigrant labor, reported to be at 91 percent of the total workforce. The cut above quality and production delivered by the expatriate workers at the administrative levels attributed to the rate (Burke and Cooper, 231). Another problem was in job creation for both the young people and women. The Arabian countries experienced a huge increase of youth numbers growing to over 30 percent of the total population, while the employment rates of the age group stood at 32.2 percent. This indicated of the government and the private sector’s failure to capitalize on the youth as a human capital resource. Briscoe, Tarique and Schuler affirmed that the situation was further worsened by labor laws that restricted the employment and participation of women. Lack of improvements on the labor laws resulted in huge financial and social costs as a consequence of deficiency in human resource utilization and educational returns (327). A research conducted in th
