Abstract Tobacco smoking in South Eastern Sydney Local Health District (SESLHD) produces a high number of deaths and illnesses. At the same time, a specific segment of the population smokes more often than others. That is, young lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transgender people are at high risk for cancer, respiratory disease, and vascular disease. Thus, the project aims to decrease the number of smokers, further supporting maintaining their health. Accordingly, based on the research of the reasons for smoking and methods of influencing part of society, the project’s expected outcome is creating an adapted plan to reduce smoking. Introduction Investigations explain that smoking among peer lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ) is higher than the average among the population. The reasons are biological, psychological, social, environmental risk factors. The project aims to create a smoking reduction plan in South Eastern Sydney Local Health District. Thus, the study of physiological and economic circumstances of smoking will create a holistic view of methods of resisting adolescent smoking. Therefore, the presumed results of the project are its introduction into the health care system, which will promote a healthy lifestyle and diminish the level of smoking among LGBTQ people in the SESLHD. Problem Statement It is known that there are differences in the vulnerabilities of individuals and groups, in their health beliefs, risks, and wellbeing outcomes. Right across communities, those with higher social status are healthier than those below them (Johns, et al., 2013). Groups that most likely experience inequities in health and wellbeing include: people from low socioeconomic backgrounds, Aboriginal people, disengaged, homeless, and especially LGBTQ. The reason for that is numerous biological and psychological factors that motivate them to take actions that seem to reduce stress levels, such as smoking (Deacon & Mooney‐Somers, 2017) and (Comfort, 2012). These dissimilarities are unfair and have direct and tangible consequences for the body, so it is required to explore the possibility of reducing differences among specific population groups. That is why the topic of the project is Developing a peer intervention program to reduce smoking rates among LGBTQ people in South Eastern Sydney Local Health District. Context The project will be implemented among the LGBTQ community as in addition to everyday life difficulties, it experiences unique stressors. Due to their sexuality, they are daily oppressed, and such social pressure leads to mental and physical health problems (Greenhalgh, et al., 2020). According to recent researches of tobacco prevalence heterosexuals smoke half as much as LGBTQ people. ‘Almost one in four among the minorities smokes in comparison to one in six for heterosexuals’ (Poynten, 2015). They start smoking at an earlier age and with greater intensity. The reason for such indicators is primarily the emotions they feel, such as bad mood, loneliness, irritability. In order
Introduction The opportunity to make use of network-based learning tools plea to a lot of practitioners in the engineering teaching stadium, often for varied reasons. This document describes our participation and experience of operational inside a European collaborative scheme, NETPRO-II, and its aims of mounting network-based solutions to allow learning aims to be achieved. As admission to the Internet and high-speed types of communication increases for teachers, the possibility for network-based learning and “telecollaboration” characterizes a great prospect for enriching classroom surroundings. While debates and research into network-based dealings in learning have been underway since the mid-1990s with the first free access to the World Wide Web, the rise of the Internet and rising access to ultra-high-bandwidth networks presents an even superior case for such events (Tillinghast 2006). Network-grounded communications can be exclusively between teachers for proficient enhancement, or between classrooms as learning activities including students to varying degrees. Universal to all activities, although, are certain deliberations which must be made to guarantee the achievement of the endeavor. Network-Based Learning Activity for an Educational Context Information and message technologies are altering much of what occurs in our schools. We are witnessing a paradigm alter in our schools from educator-centered to beginner-focused ( Morel, R., Domenjoz, J-C., Lachat, C and Rossi, C 2003) so that educators are no longer the sage but the guides(Anderson., J). It is feasible that in the prospect on-line education will cause schools as we now are acquainted with them to turn out to be out of date. It would be likely to do all way of study from the house computer linked to the exterior world using the internet. The realism of this is exposed from side to side to our online route we are participating in here and it is a bold, inspirational and sensible vision of what normal educ
The fast food restaurant industry is experiencing unprecedented growth globally. Fast foods include pizza, burger, chicken, sandwiches, fish and chips and various fatty ethnic foods. The rising popularity of fast food restaurants is due to their ability to prepare delicious meals within a short time (Smith, 2007). However, most foods in fast food restaurants are not healthy. People’s improved health awareness necessitates fast food restaurants to introduce more healthy foods in their menus. Lord of the Fries is one of the fast food restaurants that have adopted this strategy successfully. Mark Koronczyk, Sam Koronczyk, and Amanda Leigh Walker established Lord of the Fries in 2004. Lord of the Fries restaurants are gaining increased popularity in Melbourne and other Australian cities. Increased popularity of Lord of the Fries restaurants necessitates it to venture into international markets to fuel its growth (Dempster, 2010). Lord of the Fries should venture into the UK fast food market. The UK fast food market is one of the largest markets in Europe. The UK fast food market is twice the size of German fast food market, and thrice the size of the French fast food market (Humphries, 2005). The UK fast food market is growing rapidly as the younger generation are embracing fast foods (Carter, 2004). Therefore, successful entry into the UK market would e
The language of stories, as used in novels, is quite a different medium than the medium of film. Each can be used as a different tool, each having different effects as tools, just as a screwdriver and a wrench each have different functions as real tools. The words of a language can serve as powerful tools for the details and specific imagery, especially when it is best that the reader apply the specific imagery or situation to themselves as it best relates to them. In film, the imagery is immediate and is powerful in that it forces the reader to confront any number of issues. While little is left to the viewer’s imagination with film, any themes relevant in the telling of the story can be displayed and expressed immediately rather than through the slow implications as is commonly necessary with language. The power of language is personal relation, while the power of film is immediate and specific conveyance. Brokeback Mountain and The Lover are both tales of love and human development that have been portrayed in both books and films. Both films and books seem to each portray different elements better than each other in different ways, for such stories are rich in the variety of ideals relevant. All themes mentioned are relevant to some extent to either story, especially love, prejudice, passion, sex, and coming of age. Both films depict the characters in such a way that the development is more apparent, while the language in the stories better describes the mental development of the characters. Brokeback Mountain has many underlying themes of morality and general humanity. The conflicts of life with regards to man versus himself are portrayed in the story. The main characters in the story, struggle with circumstances of sexuality. This, in turn, forces them to seek a new moral basis and make decisions that can be seen as basic human choices between right and wrong or good and evil. As such, many themes are relevant such as family, dysfunction, parenting, love, and more as homosexuality has at least some influence on all of these areas. The characters in the story start at different points of morality in their journey through humanity however most of them come to the same basic moral conclusions. The characters of Jack and Ennis have unusual developments throughout the story as they must deal with their sexual relations. The dysfunction of the relationships in this sense is more evident in the book as the imagery is more indicative of the concept of dysfunction, however in the movie this takes
Introduction In 1962, Harbeneas introduced the concept of public sphere as an ideal and also as an empirical description through his seminal work “The structural transformation of the public sphere: an inquiry into a category of Bourgeois society”. Through his work, he created the impression that the public sphere was an arena where different people would come together to discuss issues of social interest. In his opinion, every person was an equal participant and had an equal chance to participate in the open discussions (Colhoun 1992). Bennet et al. (2004) adds a contemporary twist to the public sphere definition by stating that it is “the collection of places and spaces-from neighbourhood cafes to internet chat rooms- where private individuals can speak their minds in public, form opinions and become independent agents in governing the state” ( p. 437). In the contemporary society, the media has assumed a major role as an informer, educator and an entertainer to the masses. In capitalist societies, it also takes a mediating role between the social life, the economy and the state. In Kellner (2006) opinion however, the media have been neglecting its mandate as a tool to promote democracy and serve the public interest. As such, the author argues that the media has for decades now forfeited the crucial role of aiding the formation of a democratic society. Drawing similarities between the current day communication media and what Habermas refers to as the “steering media”, Kellner (2006) argues that the media has a major role to play in the public sphere and especially in regard to promoting democracy, yet is has failed to rise to the occasion allowing a crisis in the public sphere to take place. But does Habermas theorise the functions and nature of present-day communication media? Well, his writings suggest that he perceived the media as a tool for information transmission. To him, the media was not as important as debates and the eventual consensus building that formed the basis of democratic process (Habermas 1992). This explains why he chose to highlight the dissimilarity between “the communicative generation of legitimate power on hand and the manipulative deployment of media power to procure mass loyalty, consumer demand and compliance with systemic imperatives on the other” (p. 452). Analysing the above quote one gets the impression that Habermas did not consider the media as a tool that could bring about democratic transformation as he perceives it (media) as a tool that can easily be manipulated, and also interested in power and money. This means that Habermas excluded the media from contributing to the democratization process through giving people a platform where they could equally participate in debates and social discussions (Relic 2005). According to Kellner (2006), Habermas’ rigid perception o
Introduction The purpose of this essay is to detect and analyze various traits of racism in Shakespeare’s famous piece Othello and how it relates to the character of Othello. Racism in literature considerably differs from its manifestations in politics and ideology. Thus, it is useless to search for mechanical coincidences between racist postulates that are widely known and racism in literature. First of all, one should note that literature form is something that opposes political as political. Its discourse, of course, has referents in reality like for instance racist prejudices of the author and his social and cultural environment but what is more important they come into interplay with such structural characteristics of the literature work as plot, a discourse which may be described as self-reflective components. Therefore, our strategy is to trace racism as it occurs in the description of characters and their behavior, the plot. This racism is more likely to be cultural rather than biological, placing more emphasis on specific traits of character and behavior rather than on declaring inhumanness. The structure of Shakespeare’s play and the forms of racial representation The racist connotations can be already found in the circumstances that oriented Shakespeare to write Othello. It doesn’t mean that Shakespeare was himself racist because racism was entirely formed as capitalist ideology, but it is more relevant to interpret his choice of the main character as the choice of ‘marketable’ spectacular material to be set on stage since Moors were regarded as exotics in England of that period. The connotations of this attitude exemplify the cultural otherness of Moor and various prejudices that arise from the Difference; today it of course can be regarded as racism. The opening scene of the play proves our assumption. It completely exoticizes Othello referring to him not by name but as ‘Moor’ and ‘extravagant stranger’ thus putting a certain mental boundary between him and the audience. Blacks in English society of that time were perceived with negative connotations and are regarded as monsters therefore the play has frequent references to monstrosity. Of course, this step is ideological and is needed to establish the link between audience and performance. In this way, it can be described as a ‘marketing’ strategy’. English at the beginning of the 17 century often regarded blacks as monsters from the outside world and connected black skin with moral monstrosity. Bartels (1990) for instance states that postulating racial difference was regarded as a means for protecting one’s identity. These racial prejudices are developed within the frames of Renaissance discourse. Thus, using racist characteristics of the main character and its connotations for the perception of the play the link between the playwright and his audience is established. Such racial mood characterizing England at the beginning of the 17 century is well-documented and it is not
Introduction The following is a scan into the operations of C20. These reports will be concerning part one of this questions. This first part will delve into how C20 manufacturing is all about. It will have representations of pictures graphics as well as other indicators of other C20 operations. The C20 Manufacturing Process Map The operations of C20 begin with the management which is made up of the director and under him are twenty employees who deal with how and what should be done in the organization. The manager is in charge of marketing as well as the production activities in the company (Housel 2004). In this part of the report, we will look into the manufacturing processes of the fireplaces in the Century 20. Findings The findings in this section relate to the processes of C20. The first process in the manufacture of fireplaces is that of preparing the fire glazers. Here the materials for preparing the kiln are put in place, during this time the tools and apparatus which are to be used in this process are brought together to ensure that the work will be compatible as well be in a position to handled properly. Some of the materials shown here below; The second thing after preparing the materials for work in the process of making the fireplaces is setting up the mould for the different kinds of fireplaces required by the clients. In our case of C20 most of the recommended fireplace is the Victorian fireplace. The Victorian fireplace mold brings out the required fireplace. The moulds not made in C20. C20 Company usually gets these moulds from other manufactures. Once the mold is in order, the next step involves clay mixing. The fireplace usually made using clay or cement. The company has a clay mixer used in this process. The clay is usually one of the basic materials that C20 considers, as raw material is clay. Clay when used in the process of manufacturing it brings out better moulds. The clay properly mixed in to dough, then properly inserted in the mould so that it can take the shape of the mould. Once done the clay in the mould goes to the fire glazers. These tools heat the clay at very high temperatures. A fire expert who in C20 is a permanent employee does the heating in the fire glazers. The reason why it is done by experts is to ensure that the fire in the glazers does not get out of control, also the heat is very harmful and it needed an expert to keep it in control. An example picture of the clay mixer is here. Once the mixture is dried after the thorough heating in the fire glazer, the next thing which is done is removing the material from the mould which is not very tedious however once the materials now in the shape of the fireplace has been removed the next step
Introduction Biology explains the differences between men and women through their sex (biological classification). This is usually possible as women and men have different sexual organs and the disparity in the sexual organs of men and women explains the differences in both sexes. There are also individuals who have both the male and the female sex organs and they are referred to as hermaphrodites as they are neither males nor females. They usually possess a combination of both female and male traits even in their day to day lives. Culture tries to explain what it really means to be a woman or a man in a certain community since different communities have different cultures. The term gender has been coined up over time to try and explain culturally constructed roles of women and men in a certain community. The presence of infants further contradicts the explanation of what gender is as children also have roles they are supposed to play in the society. Gender is dynamic and varies across different cultures of human societies. All these descriptions of what it means to be a woman or a man in a certain specific society changes over time and interactions with the environment are very important in this process, as right from childhood through middle age up to old age, gender roles keep on changing (Brettell & Sargent, 2009). Perspectives to gender The exponential growth in technology leading to globalization has helped in exposing a bigger platform for the discussion of the critical factors that explain masculinity or femininity of individuals in the society, whether they are products of nature or culture. This has been possible as globalization has exposed diverse cultures to each other thus enabling cultural interactions beyond territorial borders. In most of the developed societies, they attribute sex to either masculinity or femininity thus, they have constructed societal expectations of either a woman or a man mostly based on the tasks, duties and responsibilities expected of them to perform in that specific society, which is usually guided by the culture of that society. Despite this assertion, there has been a variation of masculine and feminine traits across cultures in different parts of the world. Infants at their tender age do not have expected cultural roles despite them either being males or females though they acquire them as they graduate from boyhood to manhood and as girls graduate to womanhood. Infants are not able to depict their masculinity or femininity; rather, they seem neutral individuals in the society (Counihan, 1999). The reliance of kids at early age to their parents, their optical, social capabilities and activity level cannot be a
