Journal of Change Management
Over the last several years, the issue of organizational change has been continually brought to the forefront. Part of the reason for this, is because intense competition from globalization is causing many firms to make adjustments to their business model and the strategies that they are using. On the surface these kinds of transformations are supposed to bringing about tremendous shifts in the operating environment of a corporation. However, the reality is that most of these transformations are ineffective with 70% of them not working. Over the course of time, this will cause the same kinds of attitudes and ideas to be embraced in the workplace. Once this occurs, is when a firm will have trouble making adjustments, which will have an adverse impact on productivity and their bottom line numbers. In the article that was written by urnes (2011), he is talking about specific tactics that….

Journal of Leisure
How much leisure do you have? Not much, it may be imagined. Does Pieper have a valid point here, or is he being unrealistic? Are our lives basically all right even if we have no time for contemplation? Isn't leisure for video games, TV, movies, or surfing the Net?

In Josef Piepers's book Leisure: the Basis of Culture he explains that there is a lot more to leisure than sitting around the house and relaxing. True leisure time is spent invigorating some part of the soul or body, either through continual education of the self or through some other means. His link between leisure and education is particularly important. I have never thought about it before but there is a lot of learning in what people consider to be leisure time. For example, when we pick up a book to read that is ostensibly for entertainment, we are in….

"a Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift

As the name suggests, this is a proposal put forth by the writer on the way to help Ireland out of the problem of beggars along the streets and an ever increasing population of poor people within the nation. Indeed, he not only views his suggestions as viable towards decreasing the population of the poor, but to also earn the country foreign money that will help strengthen the economy of the nation at large.

When the wrester opens up his police, he begins by outlining the genuine problems of the nation in particular relation to the poor people the nation dwelling in the cities. He gives statistics of the people who are victims of poverty hence turned to beggars in a bid to show how dire the situation is within Ireland. It is at the point where he starts giving his suggestions, or the so….

The cherry blossoms dint each other in the whisper of wind as I
throw them up in the air and prance under them, pretending I am
someone else's bride.
He comes, charging like a mule with his lips pursed and his hands clutched
over the bronze medallion he wears as if it were his heart-
his wife-
and I'm caught white handed with the smiles and the
cherry blossoms,
which dint each other in the whisper of wind and his
whispers to the guards.
When he turns his back, I see no more white
but only red,
only the cherries,
only my
blood
stained
smile.

With the last line of his poem, Robert Browning not only casts light
on his character of the duke, but he also leaves the reader with a chilled
feeling. More than an effective conclusion, the line suggests that the
duke is truly as malevolent as he suspects. Very quickly, he is able to
turn from the foreboding tone he uses….

Behavioral remediation critique

The article "Neural deficits in children with dyslexia ameliorated by behavioral remediation: Evidence from functional MI" fuses information for teachers about how to structure their pedagogy with the knowledge scientists currently possess about the brain. This article examines attempts at remediation for developmental dyslexia, which is "characterized by unexplained difficulty in reading [and] is associated with behavioral deficits in phonological processing" (Temple et al. 2003). Children with dyslexia are intellectually capable of reading, and have the motivation and desire to learn to read. However, they are incapable of doing so because of their neurological wiring.

While once dyslexia was little-understood, and children with the disorder were often simply considered 'slow' or 'not bright' now there is a better understanding of why students with dyslexia cannot comprehend basic morphological structures of language. "Functional….

The chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) assessment test (CAT) that has been recently introduced in hospitals is a simple way to assess patient-reported quality of life resulting from routine care. The researchers used patient-reported CAT scores in their multicenter prospective study to judge patient's views on improvement in their activity, reduction in their symptoms, and reduced utilization of healthcare when they were allocated to pulmonary rehabilitation programs. The authors' findings support the use of CAT scores in clinical practice since there was an increase in the patient-reported scores with majority feeling 'much better' or 'a little better' after pulmonary rehabilitation. The findings suggest that CAT scores can be used as an outcome measure in COPD patients involved in pulmonary rehabilitation. It….

he peer-reviewed article focused on managers, and management-specific issues, such as the deployment of the popular philosophy of participatory management in several cultural contexts. It was particularly effective in the way that it contrasted the different ways this philosophy can be deployed, in the more individualistic Finn context, versus the consensus-building Swedish context, where consensus building is stressed. Also, the note that quite often managers who know that participatory management is 'correct' but do not actually approve of it culturally was brought to the forefront in the Czech example.

Ultimately, its practical advice, rather than the cautious cultural data excavated by the article may….

Schizophrenia and bipolar are common mental disorders that make the lifespan of persons with the disorders shorter than the general population. Substance use disorder is a common comorbidity in these individuals. Supporting data from several studies shows that the smoking rates among schizophrenics and bipolar are two to three times those of the general population. It is hypothesized that this is as a result of schizophrenics and individuals with bipolar having the perception that smoking reduces the severity of their symptoms and leads to a better quality of life. This has, however, not been proven through research. Findings from current literature also suggest that smoking among schizophrenics and individuals with bipolar may be related to the N43A gene which has several polymorphisms. By looking at the current research findings from peer reviewed journals, the gap in literature is identified which is then used to describe implications….

There is a growing concern regarding the health status of the younger generations nowadays. More and more children and infants are subject to disorders that in time affect the way in which they perform in their social environment which is usually at school or in pre-school. Unfortunately, there is not sufficient attention being given to such issues and usually only serious cases attract the action of public policies concerning for instance disruptive behaviors. Together with this gap of action in terms of dealing with such issues, there is an additional lack of specialized literature to draw the attention on these issues. The article written by Sue C. Bratton et al. "Head Start Early Mental Health Intervention: Effects of Child-Centered Play Therapy on Disruptive Behaviors"….

Journal for Professional Counseling
The work performed by qualified professional counselors involves the development of an extremely intimate relationship with clients who expect and deserve confidentiality, cultural sensitivity, and other conventions of ethical treatment as mandated by the American Counseling Association's Ethics & Professional Standards provision. Throughout my time as (insert your work/internship/class, whatever you are 'reflecting' on), I have witnessed firsthand how maintaining a commitment to personal ethics has improved my professional conduct. The best counsellors are able to balance their personal emotions toward a given situation confided to them by their client -- be it infidelity, thoughts of suicide, or other extremities in terms of life experience -- and upholding my personal ethic of objectivity during my counseling work enhances my ability to provide effective treatment across the widest possible spectrum of potential client interactions. I find that when I am able to refrain from indulging in private….

Journal on a Lecture You have Attended About Toothpaste
Today I learnt about/attended a lecture about the effects of fluoride and this study on fluoride is a new factor. While it was known that there was propaganda for the use of fluoride and against it, the propaganda was mostly a result of commercial market warfare. The myths surrounding the use of fluoride and the way some of these misconceptions have been dispelled are new. Secondly the importance of advising the patients on their choice of tooth paste has been made clear. The link between chemicals used in tooth paste and the effects of the chemicals has now been made clear. The benefits of fluoride toothpaste are shown to prevent caries in children and adolescents. The benefits of the chemical can be noticed with an increased presence, for which there must be fluoride concentrations of 1000 ppm and above. Higher fluoride….

Since I have been reading more scholarly work, I have noticed a vast improvement in the way I write my papers. My grades have improved as a result. Writing term papers is not as taxing as it was before and the writing seems to flow faster than it used to when I first started writing a lot of formal essays.
Still, I prefer to write for myself. When I use my journal I feel like I am taking time for myself to reflect on my feelings. Otherwise, I might not have any way of learning about myself. I do not chat to my friends a lot about how I feel and writing is a therapeutic outlet for me. Eventually I would like to infuse my academic writing with the personal tone that comes through in my journal writing, if a personal tone is appropriate for the assignment. Otherwise, I will….

Journal of Law, Medicine & Ethics, Elizabeth Weeks Leonard (2011) raises some of the legal issues attendant upon the new Affordable Care Act in regards to state vs. federal rights. The tenets of federalism, according to Weeks (2011), promote the rights of individual states above the rights of the federal government, which should be limited and narrowed inasmuch as is practically possible. The federal oversight and mandates that are built into this piece of legislation have been objected to by many states and individuals as overly intrusive, and Weeks (2011) provides an analysis of why the Affordable Care Act is objected to as a matter of law and as a matter of principle. Understanding this issue requires an understanding of the nature, sources, and functions of law as they are perceived in the United States in regards to healthcare.
The nature of laws in the United States are perceived by….

There are several different types of army leadership styles that can produce the desired results among the armed forces.  Leadership in the army differs a little from leadership in other scenarios because some type of followership is built into the armed forces. The main leadership styles that you are likely to encounter in the army are transactional, transformational, servant, and autocratic. 

Transactional leadership is the type of leadership one most often encounters in the military.  It is based in structure and relies strongly on both rewards and penalties.  Rather than collaborating with subordinates, the transactional leader....

Stress in sport can refer to two distinct things.  It can refer to physical stress and is compared to recovery periods or it can refer to the emotional stressors experienced by athletes in various sports.  Because you referred to the sources of stress experienced by those involved in sport, we are proceeding under the assumption that you are referring to emotional stressors.  We are going to provide an outline to give you an idea of what we might include in the introduction, main body paragraphs, and conclusion of an essay about that topic.

Healthcare reform is a hot topic because healthcare remains prohibitively expensive for so many people in Florida.  While the Affordable Care Act has expanded access to healthcare for many people, the reality is that healthcare remains prohibitively expensive for many people.  Between the cost of insurance premiums, deductibles, and out-of-pocket expenses, basic healthcare can cost people thousands and thousands of dollars a year, with much higher expenses if people experience healthcare challenges requiring care.

Florida benefitted substantially from some of the federal healthcare reform laws.  For example, Floridians cannot be denied healthcare coverage for a pre-existing....

What is the history of nursing in Ghana?

Many articles that explore the history of nursing are very focused on the evolution and history of nursing in the Western world, which leads people to mistakenly conclude that nursing evolved in the West and then was transported to other parts of the world, including Ghana.  On the contrary, Ghana has a rich tradition of nurses as healthcare practitioners and the profession evolved in Ghana alongside developments in other parts of the world. The history of nursing in Ghana may not contain any figures as....
