...The purpose of this essay is to compare and contrast nursing metaparadigms formulated by Sister Callista Roy’s Adaptation Model and Dorothy Johnson: The Behavioral System Model. These two theorist are identified as grand theorist of the post-positivist era (1950’s-1990’s). The contrast and comparison is structured as Roy’s and Johnson definition of person, health, environment and nursing. Roy defines persons as an adaptive systems with cognation and regulatory subsystems working together to continue adaptation. Roy uses four modes of adaptation (physiological, self-concept, role function, and interdependence) that has to stay balance in order for the person to function at an optimal level. Johnson defines persons as behavioral systems with seven substructures (security, recognition, basic body supply, waste evacuation, sexual needs, defense, and fulfillment) needs to balance to prevent illness. Roy’s model is adaptive and Johnson’s theory of person is reactive to internal/external impulses. Roy defines environment as all conditions and all states of affairs in one’s life that affect development and behavior. Johnson explains environment as internal and external surrounding. Both theorist environments are influenced by one’s current situations that are fixed and those surrounding that are self-restrained. Johnson’s explains health as an adequate and capable function system. Johnson also defines health as observable system balance and security. Roy’s health is the state...

Swann continues, "The DEA claimed that not enough study has been done, but there is a reason for that. Cannabis is a schedule I drug which means doctors, universities and research facilities cannot study it. It is a crime to possess." The first recorded information referring to "Ma," the Chinese word for cannabis dates back to 2900 B.C.," writes Drew Jameson, in the article, "United States Patent 6630507: Medicinal Values of Cannabis," "Chinese Emperor Fu Hsu referenced it noting that, 'Cannabis is a very popular medicine that possesses both yin and yang,'" Jameson continued. It was not until 4511 years later that marijuana was first brought to what is now known as the United States.

...sUnderstanding Obesity An educational resource provided by the Obesity Action Coalition What is obesity? Obesity is a disease characterized by excessive body fat. People who are affected by obesity usually are affected by behavioral, genetic and environmental factors that are difficult to control with dieting. Obesity increases the likelihood of certain diseases and other related health problems that can affect your quality of life and reduce your lifespan. Who is affected? Obesity is a serious health epidemic that affects one in three Americans. It is estimated that more than 93 million Americans are affected by obesity, with that number predicted to climb to 120 million in the next five years. “Overweight” and “Obesity” What is the difference? Stages of weight are medically defined by body mass index (BMI). An individual with a BMI of 25 to 29.9 is clinically classified as “overweight.” A BMI of 30 or more is classified as “obesity.” To determine your BMI, please view the BMI chart in the back of this brochure or visit www.ObesityAction.org Individuals affected by excess weight are also at risk for developing health problems, such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes, certain types of cancer, gout (joint pain caused by excess uric acid) and gallbladder disease. Excess weight can also cause problems such as sleep apnea (interrupted breathing during sleep) and osteoarthritis (wearing away of the joints). Weight-loss can help...

Authorities within supervising universities have realized that strong research by a candidate is often obscured by poor presentation, leading to the paper being ignored by the research community and journal reviewers. On the basis of their academic background, the authors of this paper decided to form a set of clear guidelines for writing research papers and giving oral presentations aimed at helping PhD students. To support the effectiveness of the methodology proposed, a statistical analysis has been conducted. The methodology described in this paper was initially intended for use in the fields of computer engineering; however, it is applicable more widely. In conclusion, if the methodology reported in this paper is followed strictly,...

...You can create art and beauty on a computer. Computers can change your life for the better. Like Aladdin's lamp, you could get it to do your bidding. Hackers operate by these principles whether anyone gives them permission to or not. For example, they have no compunction about taking information whether it is offered as free or not. However, they make a concerted effort to make information free to everyone. Hackers were the driving force behind the free software movement, which resulted in concepts such as "freeware" and "shareware," as well as the open source movement, in which source code is made available for everyone to use and adapt for their own purposes, without cost (Poynder). The GNU project was started in 1984 to develop a complete UNIX-like operating system that is free software; "GNU," which stands for "GNU's not UNIX," is based on the kernel Linux is sponsored by the Free Software Foundation and is widely used ("Free as in Freedom"). When hackers execute a hack, it is usually fueled by the desire to understand something more fully, and "hack value" is "the notion among hackers that something is worth doing or is interesting," so therefore hackers rarely bother hacking something that does not hold intrinsic interest for them ("Hack Value"). A classic hack has hallmark characteristics of its own, as well: 1. Simplicity: the act has to be simple but impressive. 2. Mastery: the act involves sophisticated technical knowledge. 3. Illicitness: the act...

...Banking in India From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Structure of the organised banking sector in India. Number of banks are in brackets. Banking in India originated in the last decades of the 18th century. The first banks were The General Bank of India, which started in 1786, and Bank of Hindustan, which started in 1770; both are now defunct. The oldest bank in existence in India is the State Bank of India, which originated in the Bank of Calcutta in June 1806, which almost immediately became the Bank of Bengal. This was one of the three presidency banks, the other two being the Bank of Bombay and the Bank of Madras, all three of which were established under charters from the British East India Company. For many years the Presidency banks acted as quasi-central banks, as did their successors. The three banks merged in 1921 to form the Imperial Bank of India, which, upon India's independence, became the State Bank of India in 1955.

...Reproduced with permission from Energy for Sustainable Development Articles Synthetic fuel production by indirect coal liquefaction Eric D. Larson Princeton Environmental Institute, Princeton University Guyot Hall, Washington Road, Princeton, NJ 08544-1003, USA E-mail: elarson@princeton.edu Ren Tingjin Department of Thermal Engineering, Tsinghua University, 100084 Beijing, China This paper reports detailed process designs and cost assessments for production of clean liquid fuels (methanol and dimethyl ether) by indirect coal liquefaction (ICL). Gasification of coal produces a synthesis gas that can be converted to liquid fuel by synthesis over appropriate catalysts. Recycling of unconverted synthesis gas back to the synthesis reactor enables a larger fraction of the coal energy to be converted to liquid fuel. Passing synthesis gas once over the synthesis catalyst, with unconverted synthesis gas used to generate electricity in a gas turbine combined cycle, leads to less liquid fuel production, but provides for a significant second revenue stream from sale of electricity. Recently-developed liquid-phase synthesis reactors are especially attractive for ‘‘oncethrough’’ processing. Both ‘‘recycle’’ and ‘‘once-through’’ plant configurations are evaluated in this paper. Because synthesis catalysts are poisoned by sulfur, essentially all sulfur must be removed upstream. Upstream removal of CO2 from the synthesis gas is also desirable to maximize synthesis productivity, and it provides...
