...contribute to our carbon footprint and use of water facilities. http://myfootprint.org/en/your_results/?id=2788767 After taking the footprint quiz and reviewing my results it became apparent how every person on the planet could not live the average life style of people in our country. I say this because most of my results are very close to the national average and my score states 6 earths would be required for everyone in the world to live similar life styles. Only one of my footprints is higher than the national average which is the food footprint and my carbon footprint is a close tie with our average. With my high protein Paleolithic diet my food consumption footprint was relatively high. I have many snacks and full sized meals throughout the day as long as there are groceries in the house. This is in order to teach my body not to store fat and is part of my cross fitness nutrition plan that I have worked out with my trainer. The way I understand it, our bodies’ anatomy has only changed a fraction of a percent sense the days of the cavemen when the average man was more athletic than our modern day Olympians. This is primarily why I consume 3 balanced meals completely grain and dairy free combined with snacks in between meals. My diet is composed of gluten free and organic produce such as grass fed meat and cage free chicken eggs. The quiz gives you perspective of just how extreme our population has become sense our planet can no longer sustain the diet our bodies have been evolved...

...opportunities for personal interaction. Instead of following health advice and instructions passively, internet tools allow people to maintain their physical well-being actively by providing updated health information, user friendly activities, and support groups (Rankin et al., 2005). 64% of the 113 million internet users in America have searched for medical information. (as cited in Rankin et al., 2005). Many health professionals concern that the internet resources can be potentially negative by spreading misinformation (as cited in Rankin et al., 2005). However, only scant research supports this concern, and other research shows that the overall accuracy of the health information on internet is good (as cited in Rankin et al., 2005). This paper is to analyze MedlinePlus, one of the patient education websites, using Fry Readability Formula, SAM (Suitability Assessment of Materials), and the guidelines that Rankin, Stallings and London (2005) suggest. MedlinePlus contains countless pages of health information including diseases, interactive health tutorials, games, medical dictionary, and videos. Therefore, analyzing one of the vast amounts of pages will have limitation to generalize the whole website. This analysis can be considered as an example. Because I work in the renal unit, and most of my patients experience chronic kidney failure, I chose the page of the chronic kidney disease. The URL is as following; http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000471.htm It will be...

...Have you ever felt like you are pursuing the wrong degree? Can you honestly tell yourself that what you are taking up now is your OWN choice? The freshman year is a deciding period for most Lormanians as to whether they will pursue their respective degrees or shift to another. Students describe the first year of college as the most frustrating and the most demanding. It is the year when you begin to question the significance of your subjects to your course. It is the time when you ask yourself this question several times, “Para saan ba itong subject na ‘to?” Subjects like Philippine History, NSTP and Philippine Literature vaguely introduce the rudiments of the degree being pursued. For instance, associating Philippine History with taking care of patients in the pediatric ward is truly difficult. And who can explain the purpose of studying Trigonometry when your job is to treat patients who are already out of breath? Of course, minors like those mentioned in the previous paragraph lay the foundation of more advanced subjects. You are not taking them up for no reason. Most of these subjects are prerequisites. For instance, Physics is a prerequisite of most Radiologic Technology and Physical Therapy subjects. A good foundation in Biochemistry provides a better understanding of Nutrition and Diet Therapy. When confronted with such dilemmas, many students cry, “Are these subjects really necessary for my course?” or “Do I really need these subjects to call myself a [insert...

...Adult baseline observations : Blood pressure The purpose of this assignment is to reflect on a chosen experience that I have identified as requiring more knowledge to complete this skill competently. I have chosen to do my learning contract on adult base line observation – blood pressure. The reason I have chosen this skill is because my first experience of taking a blood pressure was not a positive experience and to this day I still get nervous taking someone’s blood pressure. I can do the skill confidently now but feel I need to understand the theory around it to communicate the findings with the woman. When I was first learning to take someone’s blood pressure in intensives I was put down in front of our group by a tutor. I feel this would not have happened had I had more knowledge around the theory before the class which was of my own fault as I hadn’t read the modules thoroughly. I know the normal ranges of blood pressures for adults and how to get the systolic and diastolic numbers but if I was asked by a woman what these numbers mean, I would not be able to correctly and confidently communicate these with her. Existing knowledge - What do I already know about this topic/Skill. • I have had my own blood pressure taken by my doctor many times. • I have practiced taking blood pressures in akonga and intensives • I have taken women’s blood pressure on placement and during follow throughs appointments • I have passed my practise skill sheet for Adult...

...Clinical Notes The Visible Human Project p. 7 Homeostasis and Disease p. 13 An Introduction to Studying the Human Body This textbook will serve as an introduction to the inner workings of your body, providing information about both its structure and its function. Many of the students who use this book are preparing for careers in health-related fields—but regardless of your career choice, you will find the information within these pages relevant to your future. You do, after all, live in a human body! Being human, you most likely have a seemingly insatiable curiosity—and few subjects arouse so much curiosity as our own bodies. The study of anatomy and physiology will provide answers to many questions regarding the functioning of your body in both health and disease. Although we will be focusing on the human body, the principles we will learn apply to other living things as well. Our world contains an enormous diversity of living organisms that vary widely in appearance and lifestyle. One aim of biology—the science of life—is to discover the unity and the patterns that underlie this diversity, and thereby shed light on what we have in common with other living things. Animals can be classified according to their shared characteristics, and birds, fish, and humans are members of a group called the vertebrates, characterized by a segmented vertebral column. The shared characteristics and organizational patterns provide useful clues about how these animals have evolved over time...

...Resource list Secondary About this list This resource list aims to provide easy reference to a wide range of available resources and teaching materials for sex and relationships education (SRE). It includes a selection of materials produced by the Sex Education Forum together with resources produced by Forum member organisations and other organisations both not-for-profit and commercial. It is not a comprehensive list but we have prioritised resources that are up-to-date and available. The resources have been listed under four categories; primary level, secondary level, special needs/disabilities and resources for parents & carers. Resources falling into more than one category are listed in all relevant lists. A suggested age-range is given for each resource; however the maturity of children and young people varies so this should be used as a guide only. The Sex Education Forum advises professionals to make their own choices about which resources to use. We do not endorse the resources on this list. The questions in the box below can help to choose and use a resource that will contribute to good quality sex and relationships education. Choosing a resource Is the resource consistent with the values set out in the school or college SRE policy? Is it factually correct and up-to-date? Does it encourage active and participatory learning? Is the resource contemporary in terms of the realities of young people’s lives? Does the resource portray positive images of a range of young...

...For a charity auction a few years back, the photographer Patrick Demarchelier donated a private portrait session. The lot sold, for a hundred and fifty thousand dollars, to the wife of a very rich man. It was her wish to pose on the couple’s yacht. “I call her, I say, ‘I come to your yacht at sunset, I take your picture,’ ” Demarchelier recalled not long ago. He took a dinghy to the larger boat, where he was greeted by the woman, who, to his surprise, was not wearing any clothes. “I want a picture that will excite my husband,” she said. Capturing such an image, by Demarchelier’s reckoning, proved to be difficult. “I cannot take good picture,” he said. “Short legs, so much done to her face it was flat.” Demarchelier finished the sitting and wondered what to do. Eventually, he picked up the phone: “I call Pascal. ‘Make her legs long!’ ” Pascal Dangin is the premier retoucher of fashion photographs. Art directors and admen call him when they want someone who looks less than great to look great, someone who looks great to look amazing, or someone who looks amazing already—whether by dint of DNA or M·A·C—to look, as is the mode, superhuman. (Christy Turlington, for the record, needs the least help.) In the March issue of Vogue Dangin tweaked a hundred and forty-four images: a hundred and seven advertisements (Estée Lauder, Gucci, Dior, etc.), thirty-six fashion pictures, and the cover, featuring Drew Barrymore. To keep track of his clients, he assigns three-letter rubrics, like...
