Reflection On Discharge Treatment Plan
During my placement, I also had difficulty with treatment planning. I struggled to find activities that
were motivating and challenging for clients. Additionally my body language had not been clear to
my supervisor and patients, making communication difficult. With one patient, this combination of
communication and treatment planning difficulties may have left her unprepared upon discharge.
C.D. was a 77 year–old female patient with End–Stage Renal Disease among other medical issues.
She was new to dialysis, and went three times a week for the treatment. C.D. often stated she was
too tired for therapy and required coaxing or encouragement to participate, particularly on the days
she had dialysis treatment. She had not been using a mobility device prior to admission but had a

Characteristics Of Saturated Fats
Saturated fats include nuts, and in a recent study not only were nuts a good source of saturated fat,
but they were also proven to improve lipid profile of inflammatory biomarkers. Participants from
cohort studies has high risk for cardiac disease, but those who had a higher consumption of nuts and
exercised consistently were more likely to have lower c–reactive protein and IL–6 concentrations
(5). They ate higher amount of nuts because they replaced red meats, processed meats, and refined
grains with nuts. This reduced their risk of getting heart disease because their overall state of

There was another study that studied if a Mediterranean diet could decrease inflammation and
improve one's heart health. In this study, inflammation caused by diet and telomere length were
evaluated with those who have a high risk of heart disease. With the use of the dietary inflammatory
index, they looked to see the association between diet–related inflammation and telomere length.
Telomere length affects how our cells age, and if they shorten, then it will shorten one's life as well
as makine one more susceptible to disease. This study was a cross– sectional and longitudinal study
that resulted in a consistent beneficial effect with aging and health when consuming a anti–
inflammatory diet (7). The beneficial effects were that it changed their telomere length. Anti–
inflammatory diets they included were Mediterranean diets supplemented with olive oil, and
Mediterranean diets supplemented with mixed nuts. The control group was on a low fat diet. This
study also showed that a proinflammatory diet can affect a person telomere length by drastically
shortening it (7). More specifically, proinflammatory foods include fried foods, refined
carbohydrates, and sugar and anti–inflammatory foods include vegetables like kale/spinach, fruits
like tomatoes/blueberries, fatty fish, and nuts.

The Basques, settled on the Franco–Spanish border, are a people who do not have a country that

relentless search for a means of democratizing public life. They have not been able to practice or

common with at least 100 cases reported annually and these numbers hold to present day. However
in recent years, through the medium of Basque at private language schools known as ikastolaks,
progress has been slow, but constant. Nevertheless, the number of individuals who use it daily or at
least have a working knowledge of language are still sadly disproportionate. (Astrain)
Although the language is slowly being reintroduced to communities, repression continues because
they do not enjoy any political unity, but rather an excess of political institutions and functions.
Therefore, the Basques are deeply dissatisfied with both their lack of territorial unity and the inferior
status of their language, as well as frustrated by the lack of a more participatory democracy. It is said
that, "The Basques on either side of the Franco–Spanish border vote in elections for no fewer than a

to decide their own future, but this is increasingly difficult when there is no cohesion. Furthermore,

Fermin: The Small Well Of San Cernin
Fermin is said to have been the son of a Roman of senatorial rank in Pamplona in the 3rd century,
who was converted to Christianity by Saint Honestus, a disciple of Saint Saturninus. According to

Pocico de San Cernin, the "Small Well of San Cernin", across from the facade of the church
dedicated to St Cernin, which is built on the foundations of a pagan temple.[1] Saturninus (in France
"Saint Saturnin") was the first bishop of Toulouse, where he was sent during the "consulate of

San Fermines is a religious and popular festival, which takes place in Pamplona, the capital of
Navarra. The festivities take place from 6 to 14 July, and are full of different activities, although the
best–known are those that are related to bulls, such as confinement. The origin of the festival dates
back to the Middle Ages, celebrated as religious functions, in honor of San Fermín. Legend has it
that San Fermín was a Pamplona bishop settled in France, who worked several miracles throughout
his life. Because of the cult he was getting, he was ordered to be incarcerated and finally Degollaran.

Research Paper On Mediterranean Diet
The Mediterranean diet, also known Cretan diet or Mediterranean diet is a practice traditional food
in many countries around the Mediterranean Sea characterized by eating plenty of fruits, vegetables,
cereals and olive oil and a low consumption of meat and dairy products.

– reducing mortality and morbidity from cardiovascular disease;

– improve the chance of pregnancy during assisted fertilization;
– maintaining a healthy brain.

Its effectiveness is difficult to assess because it is based primarily on observational studies (the plan

case, a bias in the comparison of several populations. Few interventional studies are of type (the
investigator intentionally alters the habits of a group of patients), but not double–blind, this does not
exclude a placebo effect.
Another technique is to compare the future within the same population group following a serious

tested.

Leggio Mafia
The Corleonesi became one of the most powerful figures in the Sicilian mafia, but how did they get
there? Luciano Leggio is credited for the rise of the Corleone family. Leggio first joined with the
help of the Capo, Michele Navarra, in 1943. He was known for being violent, especially because of
his most famous homicide of trade unionist Placido Rizzotto, which he was never convicted for
despite the overwhelming evidence. Leggio liked to stay invisible, to not just the authorities, but to
other mafia bosses. Leggio began having altercations over land with Navarra in 1958, when Navarra
sent men to kill him. Leggio came out alive and was able to ambush Navarra, killing him and
starting the second mafia war. The war between Leggio's band and other Corleone bosses. ... Show

Leggio became the man all Corleonesi aspired to be like, and this mindset led them to their rank.
After killing Navarra, the fighting and the shootouts continued for 5 years. The fighting stopped
once a car bomb led to over 60 arrests of Mafiosi where all were acquitted. Leggio returned to mafia
activity, and in 1969 he was offered a spot on the Commission of Cosa Nostra. The Commission
consists of only three individuals, Leggio, Gaetano Badalamenti, who had connections across the
Atlantic, and was one of the men who was in the party that made the rules for the Commission, and
Stefano Bontate, who was the Capo of the most prominent family in Palermo. Leggio and the
Corleonesi worked their way up to be a part of Commission, which is arguably the highest position
of honor one can have in the Sicilian mafia. The reason this is important is because with the
Commission in effect, it led to the hierarchal structure of the mafia that we learned through

system of values and traditions relevant or have been forced to conform to the modern ways of the

Pyrenees Mountains around the Bay of Biscay in northern Spain and southern France for thousands
of years. Indigenous people are originating or occurring naturally in a particular place; native. By
analyzing and interpreting their language, communication, religion, transition to modernity,
differences between french and spanish borders, and their history we will be able to better

Spanish Inquisition Research Paper
Beig, "Al–Andalus is referred to the territory occupied by the Muslim empire in Southern Spain,
which refer to the cities of Almeria, Malaga, Cadiz, Huelva, Seville, Cordoba, Jaen and Granada"
(p.1). The moors gradually claimed control over the whole of the peninsula but this in turn sparked
the Christian Reconquest Covadonga in 722AD. For the next four hundred years the Christians and
Muslims fought against each other trying to capture then conquer different areas within the
Peninsula. Then finally in 1230 the Christian armies of Castilla, Aragón and Navarra joined forces to
banish the Muslims for good.
The next stage of Spanish history explains how Fernando of Aragón married Isabel of Castile 1469
uniting their kingdoms under the joint rule of a Catholic monarchy. During their reign the monarchs
implemented "The Spanish Inquisition". Research by Pérez (2005) shows that the Spanish
Inquisition was established to eliminate racial differences, "Ferdinand and Isabella wanted a modern

seem like harmless fun, it has a negative effect on society. First and foremost, many reality shows
are harmful to children and teens, as reality TV shows are programs that can quickly affect

2) Can a PMO accelerate the implementation process?
The PMO can accelerate the implementation process as it streamlines the departments' workload by
focusing exclusively on it. As it has been done in the specific case, in order to accelerate this
procedure and improve its efficacy and efficiency, the office has to be comprised of a "handful of
experienced project managers". Indeed, having the specific expertise in this field enables to avoid
conflicts of interest that might occur by giving control of the PMO to an internal executive.
3) Is it acceptable for the PMO to report to the chief information officer or to someone else?
Yes, it is acceptable that the PMO reports to the chief information officer, however there should be
also a varied integration at the top management level (or through sponsors) in order to sustain the
ongoing project whenever needed. As an example, a direct interaction with the President of the
company would benefit the PMO in multiple respects. Thanks to his authority, it would be possible
to sponsor the methodology throughout the entire organization, engaging all departments and

It is obvious in both stories that the mistresses want to be the only ones on their lovers' minds when
they are together. They want the ideas and truths of wives and fidelity left at home so that all
attention can be focused on them. In both stories, the husbands seem confident of their wives'
actions and responses. In "No One's a Mystery," the husband immediately knows his wife is driving
behind them because he says, "She keeps the lights on in the daytime" and also, "She's driving
exactly fifty–five miles an hour" (Tallent 10). These observations may seem trivial or shallow on the
surface, but their mention symbolizes all that spouses learn and know about each other simply from
being married for an extended period. In the story "Can–Can," the husband knows his wife will not
question his going out for a drive. The author writes, "She wasn't the least bit inquisitive, though
jealous she was in silent, subtle ways" (Vivante 5). The husband's true reason for a "drive" is later
revealed, when the author notes, "He wasn't simply going out for a drive, as he said, but going to a
cafe to meet Sarah, whom his wife knew but did not suspect, and with her go to a house on a lake

The Power Of Knowledge As Power
Knowledge as Power: Since the emergence of knowledge based economy, one's power has been
considered in association with his/her possession of knowledge (Heizman, 2011;

knowledge creates space for the exercise of power; the exercise of power, in return, makes the
control of knowledge possible (Foucault,

Dugesia Spp Research Paper
Dugesia spp., also known as planaria is a small flat dark brown worm of varying sizes around 0.3 –
2 cm long and 1 – 2 mm wide (Palmer and Fowler, 1975 as cited by Cha, 2001). Although they are
small, they are hermaphroditic (Maule, 2006). The middle of the body is darker in color with tiny
spots. The body consists of an arrow shaped head and a long unsegmented body that narrows as it
reaches the posterior end (T. Huang, biology student, personal communications). Midway down the
ventral side of its body, the pharynx is a tube–like structure that protrudes out for feeding (Cha,
2001). The body is smooth and stretches in contracting and expanding movements as the Dugesia
spp. travels around a flat surface (T. Huang, biology student, personal communications). The two
side parts of the arrow that extends out of its head are sensory organs, the auricles (Cha, 2001). The
auricles help sense water currents so that the Dugesia spp. is aware of the direction of water flow
(Kriska and Gyorgy, 2013). Dugesia spp. has tiny eyes called eyespots located on the dorsal side of
its arrow head. The eyespots can detect light and are extremely sensitive to light (Cha, 2001).

The Things They Carried By Tim O ' Brien
The Vietnam War was a long, exhausting, and traumatic experience for all of the soldiers and those
who came with them. The Things They Carried, by Tim O 'Brien illustrates the different affects the
war had on a variety of people: Jacqueline Navarra Rhoads, a former nurse during the Vietnam war,
demonstrates these effects within her own memoir in the book, The Forgotten Veterans. Both
sources exemplify many tribulations, while sharing a common thread of suffering from mental
unpredictability. Desensitization and unstable morals are two main themes relevant not only
throughout the novel, but in Jacqueline 's personal story.
Desensitization is one of many mental affects the Vietnam War caused those associated with it. In
the novel, the reader sees in many situations how characters develop a loss of emotion towards
suffering, killing, and violence. Things that the characters used to be affected by no longer impact
them due to the extreme exposure of the negativity surrounding them. The soldiers saw so much
death it became a normality to them, corpses became objects laughed at and played with. They "had
ways of making the dead seem not quite so dead," shaking hands and making fun of the lifeless
bodies turned into a coping method. The men and nurses learned that "by slighting death, by acting,
we pretended it was not the terrible thing it was" (O 'Brien 480). Not only was their sensitivity lost,
but the majority of their emotions as well. O 'Brien shows this in

The Wines Of Spain ( California )
The Wines of Spain
During my young and foolish years, I was a confirmed wine snob; at least as it applied to the red
wines I drank. If they didn?t come from Bordeaux, France, I didn?t consider them worthy. Typically,
my purchases would feature wines from M?doc, Margaux, Pauillac, Saint Emilion, Pomerol and
Graves. This all changed in my late forties, I was gifted with several bottles of red wine from
various countries including Australia, Chile and the United States (California). Begrudgingly, I
accepted the fact that good red wine needn?t come from France.
This oenophilia did not preclude my consumption of ?inferior? wines; it merely dispatched them to

Nevertheless, despite my experience in Colorado, I did start expanding my horizons with red wines
until my forties.
I had learned of the pleasures of the red wines from Piedmont, Italy. The incredible richness of
Australian Shiraz proved it as an acceptable alternative to its Rhone Valley cousin. However, it took
another experience with Rioja in my early fifties to start my exploration of Spanish wines.
Overview
To do justice to the subject of Spanish wines requires more than a single post, coverage befitting the
third largest producer of wine, behind France and Italy, simply cannot be done within the limits of a
single short article and summarization does a disservice to the exceptional wine making reputation
of Spain?s dedicated vintners.
Any worthwhile discussion of Spain?s wine making needs to include, at a minimum, an overview of
the wine making regulations, under which vintners operate, the labeling requirements and what that
means that means to consumers. After ?lo these concepts are covered, a discussion of the wine
growing areas, the grape varietals and the resulting wines produces a sharper picture of Spain?s
wines.
A Brief Historical Perspective

(Pera et al, 2004) The bodies specialised cells, a product of stem cell differentiation, cannot be
replaced through natural regeneration. The further exploration of ES cell research will allow
scientists to harness stem cell differentiation and compensate for the bodies inability to regenerate
specialised cells. (Fuchs, 2008) For example, ES cells hold the potential to regenerate the spinal
cord. Common and debilitating injuries to the spinal cord result in paralysis, more accurately known
as paraplegia and quadriplegia. ES cells may be used to repair an impaired spinal cord, restoring
movement and quality of life to those suffering from paralysis. (Rosenfeld et al, 2004) The prospects
for regenerative spinal cord repair is one of the many positive outcomes of ES cell research if
exploration is allowed to continue.
Ethicists often advocate for the use of human embryos in ES cell research due to their fate after
successful IVF treatment. With the successful fertilisation of an IVF patient, remaining embryos that
would have been used in further fertilisation attempts are kept in storage indefinitely. (Morgan,

Is Offshore Wind Power : Alternative Or Harmful Fossil...
Offshore Wind Power: Alternative to Harmful Fossil Fuels We have the ability to reduce our
dependency on burning fossil fuels that damage the environment and the solution is Offshore Wind
Power. The difference in solar heating between the earth 's equator and the poles, together with the
earth 's rotation, creates flows of air called wind. We can capture this form of solar energy with wind
turbines that convert it into electrical energy. Creating this type of energy has little harmful impact
to our environment, unlike other energy being created by fossil fuels. Several of the environmental
problems the world faces today, including climate change, air pollution, oil spills, and acid rain are a
result from our dependence on fossil fuels. The burning of fossil fuels produces heat–trapping gases
that are the main cause of the ongoing rise in global atmospheric temperatures. Even though a
growing list of global warming indicators, along with the alarmingly rapid recession of Arctic sea
ice, opportunistic oil companies continue to exploit the ever–increasing human need for energy
consumption and are constantly on the lookout for untapped oil and gas sources. In addition to

Continuing with the theme of violence, the Corleonesi attacked and killed three of Navarra's best
fighters in the middle of Corleone, while also injuring innocent bystanders. His violence and coup
against the established bosses was not something commonly done; furthermore, it displayed that the
power of group lie with its military prowess, rather than their political influence. The Corleonesi
functioned under the plan of using devastating violence to get what they want while suffering short–
term political loss. The Corleonesi continued their fight against the Navarra and as they were about
to claim victory against the Navarra, the Ciaculli car bomb went off which led to mass arrests of
mafia members, including Leggio. Leggio's trial is carried out very similar to the ways of other
mafia trails, such as Notarbartolo's murder trial, where evidence is lost, and defendants do not talk,
which then ultimately lead to the mafioso not getting convicted. After not getting convicted, he

Additionally my body language had not been clear to my supervisor and patients, making communication difficult. With one patient, this combination of communication and treatment planning difficulties may have left her unprepared upon discharge. C.D. was a 77 year–old female patient with End–Stage Renal Disease among other medical issues. She was new to dialysis, and went three times a week for the treatment. C.D. often stated she was too tired for therapy and required coaxing or encouragement to participate, particularly on the days she had dialysis treatment. She had not been using a mobility device prior to admission but had a rolling walker at home. I struggled to find meaningful occupations that would motivate her participation in ...

One way I could have encouraged participation in therapy would be to use more varied, relevant occupations to still work on energy conservation and equipment management. This could have included kitchen tasks, dressing tasks, and item transport with a rolling walker. Reminding C.D. of her goal to ultimately return home independently could have also bolstered her motivation. I could have gathered more information about the setup of the assisted living facility from case management. Then, based on the setup of the assisted living facility, I could have filled out a treatment planning chart to determine appropriate ways to grade activities.

Characteristics Of Saturated Fats Saturated fats include nuts, and in a recent study not only were nuts a good source of saturated fat, but they were also proven to improve lipid profile of inflammatory biomarkers. Participants from cohort studies has high risk for cardiac disease, but those who had a higher consumption of nuts and exercised consistently were more likely to have lower c–reactive protein and IL–6 concentrations (5). They ate higher amount of nuts because they replaced red meats, processed meats, and refined grains with nuts. This reduced their risk of getting heart disease because their overall state of inflammation was reduced, and chronic low–grade inflammation is known for being a culprit in all phases of atherosclerosis. The studies strengths were that ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... There was another study that studied if a Mediterranean diet could decrease inflammation and improve one's heart health. In this study, inflammation caused by diet and telomere length were evaluated with those who have a high risk of heart disease. With the use of the dietary inflammatory index, they looked to see the association between diet–related inflammation and telomere length. Telomere length affects how our cells age, and if they shorten, then it will shorten one's life as well as makine one more susceptible to disease. This study was a cross– sectional and longitudinal study that resulted in a consistent beneficial effect with aging and health when consuming a anti– inflammatory diet (7). The beneficial effects were that it changed their telomere length. Anti– inflammatory diets they included were Mediterranean diets supplemented with olive oil, and Mediterranean diets supplemented with mixed nuts. The control group was on a low fat diet. This study also showed that a proinflammatory diet can affect a person telomere length by drastically shortening it (7). More specifically, proinflammatory foods include fried foods, refined carbohydrates, and sugar and anti–inflammatory foods include vegetables like kale/spinach, fruits like tomatoes/blueberries, fatty fish, and nuts. Unlike with inflammation, there are more diets proven to improve hypertension. In this specific study 3 different diets were given to participants who had hypertension and ...

Self-Determination in the Basque Country Essay examples Self–Determination in the Basque Country The Basques, settled on the Franco–Spanish border, are a people who do not have a country that exists as an entity of its own. They are not recognized internationally. Their borders are not respected, and their culture is repressed. Thus the history of the Basque Country is one of contentious protest against imposed conditions, unremitting effort in defense of its identity and a relentless search for a means of democratizing public life. They have not been able to practice or pursue the right to self–determination as stated in the international covenants on human rights (above) and the Universal Declaration of the Rights of the Peoples from Algeria, July 4th, 1976, that, "Every ...

Torture was also very common with at least 100 cases reported annually and these numbers hold to present day. However in recent years, through the medium of Basque at private language schools known as ikastolaks, progress has been slow, but constant. Nevertheless, the number of individuals who use it daily or at least have a working knowledge of language are still sadly disproportionate. (Astrain) Although the language is slowly being reintroduced to communities, repression continues because they do not enjoy any political unity, but rather an excess of political institutions and functions. Therefore, the Basques are deeply dissatisfied with both their lack of territorial unity and the inferior status of their language, as well as frustrated by the lack of a more participatory democracy. It is said that, "The Basques on either side of the Franco–Spanish border vote in elections for no fewer than a dozen different institutions," (Astrain 6). They want to maintain their cultural integrity and be able to decide their own future, but this is increasingly difficult when there is no cohesion.

Fermin: The Small Well Of San Cernin Fermin is said to have been the son of a Roman of senatorial rank in Pamplona in the 3rd century, who was converted to Christianity by Saint Honestus, a disciple of Saint Saturninus. According to tradition, he was baptised by Saturninus (in Navarra "San Cernin") at the spot now known as the Pocico de San Cernin, the "Small Well of San Cernin", across from the facade of the church dedicated to St Cernin, which is built on the foundations of a pagan temple.[1] Saturninus (in France "Saint Saturnin") was the first bishop of Toulouse, where he was sent during the "consulate of Decius and Gratus" (AD 250).

The festivities take place from 6 to 14 July, and are full of different activities, although the best–known are those that are related to bulls, such as confinement.

Research Paper On Mediterranean Diet The Mediterranean diet, also known Cretan diet or Mediterranean diet is a practice traditional food in many countries around the Mediterranean Sea characterized by eating plenty of fruits, vegetables, cereals and olive oil and a low consumption of meat and dairy products.

Leggio first joined with the help of the Capo, Michele Navarra, in 1943. He was known for being violent, especially because of his most famous homicide of trade unionist Placido Rizzotto, which he was never convicted for despite the overwhelming evidence. Leggio liked to stay invisible, to not just the authorities, but to other mafia bosses. Leggio began having altercations over land with Navarra in 1958, when Navarra sent men to kill him. Leggio came out alive and was able to ambush Navarra, killing him and starting the second mafia war. The war between Leggio's band and other Corleone bosses. ...

After killing Navarra, the fighting and the shootouts continued for 5 years. The fighting stopped once a car bomb led to over 60 arrests of Mafiosi where all were acquitted. Leggio returned to mafia activity, and in 1969 he was offered a spot on the Commission of Cosa Nostra. The Commission consists of only three individuals, Leggio, Gaetano Badalamenti, who had connections across the Atlantic, and was one of the men who was in the party that made the rules for the Commission, and Stefano Bontate, who was the Capo of the most prominent family in Palermo. Leggio and the Corleonesi worked their way up to be a part of Commission, which is arguably the highest position of honor one can have in the Sicilian mafia. The reason this is important is because with the Commission in effect, it led to the hierarchal structure of the mafia that we learned through Tommaso Buscetta.

Dugesia Spp Research Paper Dugesia spp., also known as planaria is a small flat dark brown worm of varying sizes around 0.3 – 2 cm long and 1 – 2 mm wide (Palmer and Fowler, 1975 as cited by Cha, 2001). Although they are small, they are hermaphroditic (Maule, 2006). The middle of the body is darker in color with tiny spots. The body consists of an arrow shaped head and a long unsegmented body that narrows as it reaches the posterior end (T. Huang, biology student, personal communications). Midway down the ventral side of its body, the pharynx is a tube–like structure that protrudes out for feeding (Cha, 2001). The body is smooth and stretches in contracting and expanding movements as the Dugesia spp. travels around a flat surface (T. Huang, biology student, personal communications). The two side parts of the arrow that extends out of its head are sensory organs, the auricles (Cha, 2001). The auricles help sense water currents so that the Dugesia spp. is aware of the direction of water flow (Kriska and Gyorgy, 2013). Dugesia spp. has tiny eyes called eyespots located on the dorsal side of its arrow head. The eyespots can detect light and are extremely sensitive to light (Cha, 2001).

Desensitization is one of many mental affects the Vietnam War caused those associated with it. In the novel, the reader sees in many situations how characters develop a loss of emotion towards suffering, killing, and violence. Things that the characters used to be affected by no longer impact them due to the extreme exposure of the negativity surrounding them. The soldiers saw so much death it became a normality to them, corpses became objects laughed at and played with. They "had ways of making the dead seem not quite so dead," shaking hands and making fun of the lifeless bodies turned into a coping method. The men and nurses learned that "by slighting death, by acting, we pretended it was not the terrible thing it was" (O 'Brien 480). Not only was their sensitivity lost, but the majority of their emotions as well. O 'Brien shows this in Hazeltine 1 ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Psychology Personal Statement Please identify your chosen major and explain why you chose this field? * Through the last two years as a student at Manchester Community College, I have been able to experience numerous classes and meet wonderful professors. In my first semester of college, I decide to take a general psychology class with Dr. Francine Rosselli–Navarra. She taught me that psychology is a science, which studies our minds and behaviors. After that class I knew that I did not just want to study the physical feature of the brain and the brain process, but how the interactions with and within our brains that produce our cognitive functions. After completing that psychology class I realized that I did not wish to be a biology major anymore, instead I wished to study in the field of Neuroscience, which is a combination of both biology and psychology. ...

  • 58. The Wines Of Spain ( California ) The Wines of Spain During my young and foolish years, I was a confirmed wine snob; at least as it applied to the red wines I drank. If they didn?t come from Bordeaux, France, I didn?t consider them worthy. Typically, my purchases would feature wines from M?doc, Margaux, Pauillac, Saint Emilion, Pomerol and Graves. This all changed in my late forties, I was gifted with several bottles of red wine from various countries including Australia, Chile and the United States (California). Begrudgingly, I accepted the fact that good red wine needn?t come from France. This oenophilia did not preclude my consumption of ?inferior? wines; it merely dispatched them to a list of wines I would never consider buying for myself. I assumed that if I couldn?t ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Nevertheless, despite my experience in Colorado, I did start expanding my horizons with red wines until my forties. I had learned of the pleasures of the red wines from Piedmont, Italy. The incredible richness of Australian Shiraz proved it as an acceptable alternative to its Rhone Valley cousin. However, it took another experience with Rioja in my early fifties to start my exploration of Spanish wines. Overview To do justice to the subject of Spanish wines requires more than a single post, coverage befitting the third largest producer of wine, behind France and Italy, simply cannot be done within the limits of a single short article and summarization does a disservice to the exceptional wine making reputation of Spain?s dedicated vintners. Any worthwhile discussion of Spain?s wine making needs to include, at a minimum, an overview of the wine making regulations, under which vintners operate, the labeling requirements and what that means that means to consumers. After ?lo these concepts are covered, a discussion of the wine growing areas, the grape varietals and the resulting wines produces a sharper picture of Spain?s wines. A Brief Historical Perspective Spain has been growing grapes and making wine for centuries, with traditions as reputable as from any of the other European wine countries. However, the events of the past few decades, from the 1980s until now have resulted in something of a revolution in ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

(Pera et al, 2004) The bodies specialised cells, a product of stem cell differentiation, cannot be replaced through natural regeneration. The further exploration of ES cell research will allow scientists to harness stem cell differentiation and compensate for the bodies inability to regenerate specialised cells. (Fuchs, 2008) For example, ES cells hold the potential to regenerate the spinal cord. Common and debilitating injuries to the spinal cord result in paralysis, more accurately known as paraplegia and quadriplegia. ES cells may be used to repair an impaired spinal cord, restoring movement and quality of life to those suffering from paralysis. (Rosenfeld et al, 2004) The prospects for regenerative spinal cord repair is one of the many positive outcomes of ES cell research if exploration is allowed to continue. Ethicists often advocate for the use of human embryos in ES cell research due to their fate after successful IVF treatment. With the successful fertilisation of an IVF patient, remaining embryos that would have been used in further fertilisation attempts are kept in storage indefinitely. (Morgan, 2006) Many couples opt to donate their spare embryos to ES cell research, as they do not believe that their fertilised zygote is in fact human life.

  • 62. Is Offshore Wind Power : Alternative Or Harmful Fossil... Offshore Wind Power: Alternative to Harmful Fossil Fuels We have the ability to reduce our dependency on burning fossil fuels that damage the environment and the solution is Offshore Wind Power. The difference in solar heating between the earth 's equator and the poles, together with the earth 's rotation, creates flows of air called wind. We can capture this form of solar energy with wind turbines that convert it into electrical energy. Creating this type of energy has little harmful impact to our environment, unlike other energy being created by fossil fuels. Several of the environmental problems the world faces today, including climate change, air pollution, oil spills, and acid rain are a result from our dependence on fossil fuels. The burning of fossil fuels produces heat–trapping gases that are the main cause of the ongoing rise in global atmospheric temperatures. Even though a growing list of global warming indicators, along with the alarmingly rapid recession of Arctic sea ice, opportunistic oil companies continue to exploit the ever–increasing human need for energy consumption and are constantly on the lookout for untapped oil and gas sources. In addition to ecological disturbances from fossil fuel extraction, there are certain cultural consequences for communities around the Pacific Rim. These communities, many Indigenous, are threatened by the depletion of specific resources they depend upon for their livelihoods and culture. The time is now for harnessing the ...

My grandfather severed in the military and was stationed in Basque Country. Despite the large Basque population surrounding me, I knew very little of the culture and traditions commonly found within the Basque Country. "The homeland of the Basque people, commonly called the Basque Country, is located on the Bay of Biscay at the western end of the Pyrenees mountain range, straddling the border of France and Spain. The nearly 8,000–square–mile Basque Country is divided into seven administrative districts, four in Spain and three in France. Basque culture is distinctive from that of the rest of Spain in many ways" (Thomas, par. 1). This assignment has allowed me the privilege to interview and spend time with Maria Begona Narvaiza–Peck.

Her father, who was a sheepherder, moved to the United States ahead of the rest of the family. He was working to earn passage for the family to be reunited once again.

It is set in post–Civil War Spain, in 1944, after the victory of the fascist Nationalists led by General Franco. Though the war had ended, many republican rebels were still striking back against the new oppressive government. Other citizens were exiled, or attempted to flee the country. A large portion of those that did rebel hid in more remote areas of Spain, such as the region of Navarra in Northern Spain, where Pan's Labyrinth takes place. During the Spanish civil war, both Nationalists and Republicans killed, tortured, and attacked citizens. Anyone either side disagreed with was likely to be harmed (school teachers, ...

When I first watched the film, I was shocked and horrified (I honestly thought it was horrible). At the time, I was too hung up on the creepiness and violence of the movie to value anything about it. After a few days of thinking about it, however, I was able to appreciate the subtlety behind the story, as well as the uniqueness of the plot. Pan's Labyrinth is similar to a twisted fairy tale, and has an interesting storyline, incredible effects, and good characterization. For those reasons, I feel as if I should recommend this movie to others. Pan's Labyrinth is essentially a classic, and is probably the kind of movie everyone should see once. Despite this, I cannot imagine possibly watching the movie a second time. It is for this reason that I wouldn't recommend the movie to others, as I did not enjoy it as I watched it. As I viewed the film, I was shocked and horrified by the violence, annoyed with Ophelia's character, and slightly confused about the storyline. It was only afterwards, during reflection upon it, that I could appreciate its good qualities. On one hand, I am interested by Pan's Labyrinth, on the other hand, I hated it. Therefore, I do not actually know if I would recommend this film to someone else or not. I think it would depend on the person and their own ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

With the establishment of the State Administration of Coal Mine Safety (SACMS) the Chinese State Council was able to set up an independent and vertically integrated safety supervisory institution (Xunpeng, 2009). Despite a high number of deaths in China's coal mines, the death rate is falling as measured by number of deaths per million tons because of the regulation (Xunpeng, 2009). This organization functioned as an independent third party that improved worker safety for the Chinese people. Historically large businesses have had a negative reputation for pollution. Government agencies can implement measures that lead to large reductions in pollution. With the passage of the Clean Air Act of 1990, the number of summer ozone–advisory days has declined (Salvatore, 2015). New York City had 4 days of ozone advisories during the summer of 1993, compared with 21 days during the summer of 1988, while in Washington there was just 1 day in summer 1993, compared with 12 days in 1988 (Salvatore, 2015). The government used regulation to significantly improve the quality of life for the citizens. In this circumstance the market had clearly failed the population.

These lovable characters are all grown up and dealing with the insane world of high school. The main attraction, CB (Charlie Brown), is questioning the existence of an afterlife after his dog dies (this was a big surprise). His friends are too involved in their own drama and can't really help him, but a chance meeting with Beethoven (Schroeder), the target of this group's bullying, offers CB solace and thus begins a friendship that will push teen angst to the very limits.
