The article by Omole focuses on recent shift in the management of obesity and the social issues that emerge with its development, namely, the culture of fat-shaming, by considering some of the alternatives toward evaluating an individual’s weight. According to Omole, the continuous and rather harsh measures taken to promote a healthy lifestyle coupled with the culture of fat-shaming have led to the pushback in the form of MHO. The specified notion suggests that obesity can be healthy and does not necessarily entail health limitations. However, the described perspective is based on a rather flawed premise since it does not take into account the possibility of the disease progression, the development of health issues as an individual grows, and the further challenges that one may face when aging. The current approaches toward measuring weight and propensity toward obesity in patients are also insufficient in their methodological components. Namely, one of the most common strategies for measuring obesity, known as BMI, offers a fairly rough assessment of an individual’s characteristics that do not necessarily allow for an accurate evaluation of the condition. Specifically, the correlation between weight and height are not the only factors at play in defining the presence of obesity and the related health risks. Other tools, such as the evaluation of visceral fat in an individual’s body, may lead to a more productive evaluation of one’s weight issues and management. Overall, the current focus on body positivity has spawned the idea of MHO, which deludes the process of determining health concerns linked to obesity. Therefore, it is necessary to incorporate a medical perspective alongside with the social one into the identification and management of obesity. Reference Omole, M. (2020).

What are some common errors in performing steep turns? It is imperative to mention that individuals make several mistakes related to steep turns during the process of training that is quite common. First of all, the lack of coordination is particularly problematic and can lead to severe complications. The ability to maintain correct altitude levels when making turns is critical. Also, some forget to scan the area to evaluate the traffic. Power management is another factor that can be rather problematic most of the time, and recovery should not be started too early. Inability to control airspeed is also unacceptable, and it is reasonable to pay close attention to such aspects as excessive pitch (Federal Aviation Administration, 2004). How do the human eyes adapt to darkness? The understa
In every religion, prayer services are the times when a person can communicate to God his or her gratitude, worries, or concerns in hope that through various means God will send the answer. Prayer services, like most religious services, are conducted at a designated place, and at a designated time and is the time when the person has to be emotionally and spiritually pure to be closer to God. In this respect, Islam and its religious services are no exception. Usually, Muslims pray five times a day at specific times. In the past, it was also required for the Christians to pray several times a day, before starting or after finishing errands or business. Now, however, most people pray in the evening, and sometimes before meals. Many Mosques have a tower on their premises which is called Minaret. A special person called muezzin climbs on the top of it before every prayer time and calls the Muslims to pray at the times when the prayers are due reciting “salat” – a prayer invitation to the service. This is done at traditional Mosques, mostly in Muslim countries, and in a few Mosques in the areas with large Muslim communities, although not every Mosque these days has a Minaret (Ruthven, 2000). If a non-Muslim wants to attend a service, he can be invited by a Muslim friend or simply observe the public service, as Muslims are generally known for their hospitality, anyone would be welcome at the service and treated with due respect. The tradition of peaceful co-existence between Islamic and non-Islamic communities has always existed in Muslim countries and continues to exist where Muslims reside as minority groups. Like in any other religion, there are special requirements as to what is allowed to wear to a prayer service. These requirements are very much similar to the Christian religion: one’s clothes must be clean and modest, women should wear long skirts and long-sleeved shirts or blouses. The head of any participant must be covered (like it is also done in the Orthodox Church) a hat or scarf may be u
Introduction Job description is the heart and soul of Human Resource Management. Job description is the responsibility connected with a given job. A job is a group of tasks which a worker has to perform. It is a set of functions, responsibilities, qualifications of a particular person and the incentive for that job. Job description is given by the employer as an advertisement to the prospective employees. It is a summary of total jobs. It gives a description about the specific job to the current and prospective employees. Job description helps take decision on planning and staffing in an organization. In a job description, the matter must be clear, concrete and brief. It provides information about knowledge, skills and other work details about the job. Job analysis means analyzing a job and not a person. It does analysis on job description and job specification on a job and not on a person. It is related to job on the basis of selection, training, recruiting etc. Job analysis helps assess the needs in a job during the time of training and assessment test. The methods adopted for conducting training process are through small group, classroom and by using different video clips. Compensation is based on the responsibilities assigned to a job, qualification of a person, skill level and on the working atmosphere. Job analysis includes job specification and job description. It helps in evaluating employee performance in an enterprise. With the help of job analysis, the activities pertaining to job can be done efficiently and effectively. Cost effectiveness can be maintained with the help of job analysis. “Students with an interest in the medical field and a knack for working well under pressure will find a rewarding career as an Operating Room Technician, participating in surgeries from beginning to end to ensure safety and efficiency.” (Certified operating room technician, 2009, Operating room technician: job duties requirements for a career in operating room technology, para.1). A general job description of an operating room technician in a US Army is described below. The operating room technicians in an army assist the medical department staffs for providing service to the patients in the hospital. They help the nurses to prepare the patients and make arrangements in the operating room for surgery purpose. They also help the medical staffs in doing their surgery. They also help in maintaining supply of disinfected
Public Relation Opportunities The PR opportunities available to Johnson and Johnson are evident in social endeavors such as charity events. This is perhaps the most noticeable process since it shuns profit making and addresses the needs of less fortunate (Perreault, Cannon & McCarthy 2011). Background information posits that the community is distressed due to solemn infestation of health complications. Many household channels huge finances in the management of diverse ailments. Apparently, the need of observing safer precautions to minimize impact is obvious. Jonson & Jonson Corporate can capitalize on this opportunity to maximize on sales whilst improving the image of the entity. The Company’s supplies present a solution to this challenge (Perreault, Cannon & McCarthy 2011). Engaging in models that promote protective actions hence upholding healthy living, earns the Company a good public reputation since the entity develops an idea representing care for the (Knight, 2004). Importantly, other competitors understand how influential such an approach can be. However, Jonson & Jonson stands a better chance of outweighing them because their services have passed customers’ test. The Company’s image is already credible and their professionals are accepted. Therefore, if the Company maximizes on these, while scheming in the “healthy nation” concept, it can expansively penetrate into the market. According to Perreault, Cannon & McCarthy (2011), an additional opportunity is evident in the capacity to draw numerous celebrities especially persons utilizing the products. Indeed, the product under scrutiny is utilizable amongst divergent celebrities; thus, the need to center on their capacity to foster growth. Furthermore, it is fundamental to deduce the role of the company’s executives as they move in diverse locales. This is evident in their capacity to highlight roles whilst improving organizational processes through branding. Indeed Perreault, Cannon & McCarthy (2011) assert that the most suitable mode is often non-official since consumers will not be pressured to adapt processes. Examples of such processes are evident when the CEO of the entity moves to diverse regions. Effects of Channel Management Decision It is paramount to acknowledge that the objectives of Johnson and Johnson are paramount in determining the channel decisions. This is evident in the need of the organization to acknowledge its position and stature in the market with the intention of improving operations. According to Armstrong & Kotler (2011), it is evident that the control of channels often culminates in the growth of clientele expectations. Furthermore, it allows entities such as the organization to postulate future need with the intent of improving servi
This case study addresses the issue of inventory problems in the aerospace industry using the theory of constraints. This article is jointly authored by three management scholars from the Republic of China. The case study focuses on the aerospace industry because of its management and time-based demands. According to the authors, management efficiency is cause for concern in various operational scenarios and the aerospace industry in particular. The case study uses a current reality tree to examine management objectives in the aerospace industry’s environment. The authors hypothesize that if ‘conflicting inventory management activities’ are eliminated, this would positively impact the whole managerial system (Chou, Lu & Tang 2012). The authors of this article begin by noting the unique scenarios that make the aerospace industry a high-stakes management arena. The authors note that the uncertainties that face the supply and demand of aerospace-related products make the management of these organizations a complex affair. The theory of constraints is identified as the main solution to the complex management and decision-making processes that burden various organizations. The authors term the theory of constraints “as a thinking process that can be applied to help organizations to identify the problems, find strategies to solve them, and eventually implement these strategies successfully” (Chou, Lu & Tang 2012). The literature review section of this case study gives various definitions and further additional research concerning the theory of constraints (TOC). Some of the factors that have a direct influence on TOC include ‘material requirements planning, supply chain management, and enterprise resource planning’. The case study reveals that the success of TOC is based on three separate assertions including the small number of constraints that limit performance and the goals that must be met in a particular management scenario. The authors also offer readers a step-by-step approach of the TOC process. Another section of literature review i
The two works in question dwell upon the role of women in science but the authors focus on different aspects of the issue. Thus, Londa Schiebinger concentrates on the way animals were categorized and how it affected the distribution of the roles in society. At the same time, Sarah Hutton explores the role women played in science in the eighteenth century. Both authors examine the way females were seen in society and they conclude that women were thought to be responsible for households and had no right to actively participate in any sphere of social life. The two writings are also quite different in regards to their narratives. Hutton stresses that the world was patriarchal and there was even a great deal of misogyny (18). The author notes that women were interested in science and were eager to participate in scientific discourses but male dominance prevented them from entering the world (as well as the history) of science. In the eighteenth century, women were also deprived of their right to obtain an education, especially in science. Though, the author provides a variety of examples when women participated in scientific life (Hutton 21). Nonetheless, the history of science has little information on that matter as women were assigned a different role. They were to focus on household activities and leave social life to men. Though Schiebinger shares the same view on the role of women in the society of the eighteenth century (or women who lived before the twentieth century), the author claims that females have always been integrated into people’s mindsets. The author argues that even scientists were ready to accept the significant role of the woman in the history of humanity. Thus, Linnaeus chose a category that is a characteristic feature of the female (Schiebinger 2). Unlike Hutton, Schlesinger notes that females were regarded as important creatures who nurtured the whole world. At the same time, this almost divine role of the woman led to a reverse effect as men started promulgating ideas of the woman as a nurturer and a keeper of the hearth. In other words, women became responsible for households only and their role as the nurturer of humanity was forgotten. As has been mentioned above, these two authors focus on the role of women in social life. However, the articles shed light on different aspects and use a different approach. Schiebinger’s ideas are quite interesting and can be considered in detail but they seem far-fetched as a great deal of the articles focuses on the choice
Every research work should be properly structured and have clearly stated objectives and research questions. In the formulation of the latter, it is also vital to consider the possible variables with which the research will operate to state the testable hypotheses to answer the research questions. Thus, in the current research on the processes in the development of the United States Army, it is also necessary to establish the classification of the variables observed in this organization and see their role in considering the testable hypotheses presented further. Variables Differentiation Dependant Variables (DV) Dependent variables are the factors that can only be assumed and depend upon the development o0f other factors, i. e. independent variables. Dependant variables have measured outcomes and can be easily traced by the change of independent variables (Roanoke, 2009). In respect to the US Army, the dependant variables include the desire to quit the service and the service satisfaction of the soldiers (US Military, 2009). The desire to quit is positively correlated with the independent variable of tenure that might be rather stressful. It is negatively correlated with the independent variable of payment. On the other hand, service satisfaction can be positively and negatively correlated with both payment and tenure. Independent Variables (IV) Independent variables are the factors that determine the dependant variables and do not rely on any other factor in their development. Independent variables help manipulate the dependant ones and serve as the stimuli for the latter (Roanoke, 2009). For the US Army, the independent variables include tenure and payment. They both can be positively correlated with the mentioned dependant variables if they offer either the improvement or worsening of service conditions, and can be negatively correlated if they offer the diverse perspectives for the dependant variables development (US Military, 2009). Moderating Variables (MV) The moderating variables are the exceptional or specific groups of factors that can display other results in respect of the influence of independent variables on the dependant ones. Thus,
Abstract Globalization is a process adopted by organizations to venture in the international markets. They want to fully utilize their capacities and capabilities by expanding their business and to earn more revenue. Globalization can be considered to be a global assimilation of knowledge, goods, thoughts, technologies, cultures, and manpower. The incessant developments in science and technology have enabled such organizations to achieve their quests in an easy manner. The three things that have been the major catalysts in promoting globalization are industrialization, transportation (air-travel, air-cargo, and sea-cargo), and telecommunication (telephone, internet, and fax). While following the footsteps of the successful multinational companies, new companies that want to enter the global market should foresee all the aspects. The world is changing at a high pace and the factors are not the same as before. The intentions or motives of organizations in opting for globalization and investing in other countries are the same as in their domestic markets. They want more sales and subsequently, more profits. Generally, there are four reasons why organizations want globalization:   * In quest of new markets for their products/services: Organizations go global in order to search for new customers for their products and/or services. There are several products that come into the global markets. Managements of organizations might feel that their products, being superior to those in the international markets, could also be sold in the international market and they might want to take advantage of the opportunities.   * Saturation in the domestic market: There are times when the demand in the domestic market decreases and organizations have surplus products. In other words, the domestic market gets saturated. The reasons of saturation (launching of duplicate products at lower price, new improved versions of the product, etc.) is a different topic altogether. But since the domestic market gets saturated, organizations need to find alternate markets for sustenance.   * Expect higher returns on investments: Especially in the case of high technology products, investments in overseas markets yield more than in the domestic markets. This particular point is supported by Sutherland’s claim that, “The minimum size of market needed to support technological development in certain industries is now larger than the largest national market” (Sutherland, 1998, p. 3).   * To seek cheaper and/or better resources: There are countries where manpower is cheap. On the other hand, there are countries where manpower is very costly. So, in
Neo-liberalism refers to a set of economic policies that have become common worldwide, for the last two and half decades. The trend of neo-liberalism has been imposed by various organizations, particularly by some of the powerful financial institutions in the world, such as the IMF and the World Bank (Amin 53). Neo-liberal economic and development policies have been implemented in many regions of the world, specifically for poverty reduction and development purposes. In that case, the initial agenda behind these policies was tailored mostly with regard to the needs of international capital and this, it was argued, was intended to benefit all segments of the society including the less-fortunate. In essence, the final outcomes realized from various mechanisms of the framework would see the poor being the major beneficiaries of the approach. However, the outcomes have failed to meet the intended expectations, as it is evident from various regions where neo-liberal approaches have been applied with the aim of reducing poverty and improving the living standards of people. This report examines some of the main impacts of neo-liberal development approach on poor countries. Neo-liberalism draws mixed reactions from different people. While it is thought to facilitate developments in various parts of the world, the main beneficiaries of the trend are a minority of the global population. More obviously, while some people tend to view it as a driving force for economical change in the society, others would rather not appreciate it, owing to the many nightmares associated with the policies. In the U.S. for instance, neo-liberalism is seen as a major contributor in the destruction of welfare programs, among other social problems. With the advance of high levels of unemployment and poverty in most developing nations, it is obviously apparent that neo-liberal policies have failed to deliver to the global society. In fact, very little economic success has been realized through its seemingly promising development proposals. Unlike the best intentions behind
Purpose In essence, nursing has been confronted by various challenges in regard to its profession, ethics and technical skills. As a result, these challenges must be identified in order to facilitate research that can help in finding solutions (Barnsteiner, 2011). The process of identifying those problems and subsequent research process are crucial undertakings when it comes to developing new ways of diagnosis and maintaining ethics. For example, the issue of staffing ratio has become a major problem to the success of the nurses in their quest to provide care to patients (Hirsch & Schumacher, 2012). It is evident that the number of nurses available is incapable of serving the increasing population and the emerging healthcare issues (Barton, 2009). This condition implies that a research study should be conducted to find a lasting solution although it does come from the nurses. Accordingly, this paper seeks to identify a current issue within the nursing profession, propose a possible solution, and enlist some of the previous articles that can be used in the research. Directions Step 1: Identify the Problem Safety has posed a main problem to the nursing profession in relation to various aspects of performance. In this regard, it is not assured anymore due to the arising constraints that confront the nurses in their attempt to protect the patients and their bodies too. This condition implies that the safety of both the patient and the practitioner is vulnerable. There are several reasons as to why this aspect has deteriorated as compared to the previous years of practice. First, it has b
