Abstract
Using the retrieval–practice paradigm (Anderson, R. A. Bjork, & E. L. Bjork, 1994), it was tested whether or not retrieval–induced forgetting could be
found in item recognition test in terms of RT and accuracy. In this experiment retrieval practice on items from semantic categories depressed
recognition of non–practiced items from the same categories reflected in terms of RT and accuracy. Also the results are consistent with the hypothesis
that the accuracy in recognition of rp+ (Practiced items from practice categories) items will be highest followed by nrp (Unpracticed items for the
unpracticed categories) items and lowest for rp– (Unpracticed items from the practiced categories) items. The reaction time in recognition task will be
lowest for rp+ item followed by nrp items and highest for rp– items.
Introduction
Memory is power in which the mind stores and remembers information. Memory is a process in which information is encoded stored and retrieved
for later usage. Forgetting is an apparent loss of information already encoded and stored in an individual's memory. It is a spontaneous process
wherein old memories are unable to be recalled from memory storage. Active forgetting can be stated as an evidence for functional inhibition as a
source of one's memory failure. (Anderson, 1994). There

Push : Paradigm Complexities : Essay
Push: Paradigm Complexities 1 INTRODUCTION In Sapphire's (1997) novel Push, she emphasizes an overall theme of surviving and overcoming
adversities like identity, mental disability, and self–image. The dynamics of the book focuses on Clarice Precious Jones, a maltreated and obese,
African American teenager who struggles with the repercussions of being physically, sexually, and psychologically abused by her parents– mainly,
getting impregnated by her father. Precious and her first child by her father, whom she named Little Mongo, is used by her mother as a means of
survival to receive welfare checks. Aside from her abuse, Precious is forced to cook, clean and attend to her non–ambulatory mom, Mary. Carl, her
dad, continuously rapes her under the assumption that she "likes it and dies for it" (Sapphire, 1997, p. 24), even though her body is responding
accordingly to its biological function. While she is raped, she is disembodied and copes with her abuse by occupying her mind with thoughts of
"changing bodies" (Sapphire, 1997, p. 24). As an underprivileged African American residing in Harlem, she authenticates the embedded societal value
of being "light skinned, thereby treated right and loved by boyz" (Sapphire, 1997, p. 113). Her hardships and the realization of not fitting into that
criteria, makes her wish that she wasn't alive and entertains thoughts of suicide (Sapphire, 1997). The story unfolds when Precious is suspended for

Programming Models Of Wsn System
Research Proposal Title Programming Models of WSN System: A State–of–the–Art Survey Introduction There are a lot scenarios need different sensor
nodes to collaborate and integrated on the air into networks to facilitate applications. The scaled–down censoring system presented below is an
example of those wireless sensor networks (WSN). In this system sensors are different between corridors area and manufacturing area, since they need
different precise level. Those sensors combined together by different wireless AP and provide services to different applications inside and outside the
plant. This is where virtualization shines. Virtualization creates an uniformed environment in heterogeneous sensor networks. It bridge the gap
between infrastructure and applications. And the network and sensor virtualization can achieved by the middleware. Middleware hide unnecessary
details and complexity of the underlying heterogeneous infrastructures, like different sensor nodes and different wireless AP in the presented scenario.
Software designs and programming approaches for the middleware design should facilitate the balance between communication and computing. Energy
awareness, routing, efficient resource utilization and data delivery have always been the key parameters for an efficient programming model for WSN.

Difference Between Object Oriented And Object-Driven...
Unit 6 Assignment by Ali Shafiq
(P1–P2)
In programming, there are three different types of paradigms that we use in programming. And they are procedural, object–oriented and event–driven
programming paradigms.
Procedural Language
Procedural programming is a programming paradigm which is derived from structured programming and it is based upon the concept of the
procedure call such as where you can keep a record of procedure call programs. It's also a list or set of instructions telling a computer what to do step
by step. Also tell the computer how to perform from the first code to the second code. The program can be broken into procedures or subroutines or
functions such as Anglo, C and Pascal.
Procedural programming uses a list of instruction to tell the computer what to do step by step. It relies on procedures, routines and sub–routine. The

Object–oriented programming is a programming language model organized around objects. And it represents the concept of object that has data fields.
The Object–oriented programming is a type of language that is oriented around objects. They do not base their action on the logic that manipulate the
object, but on object.
By using object–oriented, you can solve problems. The object–oriented language is a type of programming that is kept in a single unit called object.
Meaning that the only way user can access the data is by using the objects methods. This can insure that the user will be incapable of corrupting the
object and also internal working can be changed without corrupting the code using the object.
Some of the limitations for this programming language are that you have to do most of the task manually. Object oriented programming is also limited
with low amount of functions as comparing to low programming that interacts directly with hardware.

Psychological Paradigm Shift: The Beauty of the Old and Need for the New I had the pleasure of reading an article titled, Psychological Paradigm

to the patient. This paper will give a brief description of what the environment looks like at a Jungian conference, according to the author. What to do
when you reach an impasse and recognizing that a paradigm shift is beneficial for treatment. This article in part references a Jungian conference
attended by the author and his wife who happens to be psychologists. According to Simon (2016), a great deal of the individuals, who attended this
conference were mental health professionals. The picture he paints is one of a philosophical pilgrimage, attended by "dreamers, truth –seekers,
self–reflectors" and individuals of that nature. During the course of this conference, a majority of the therapist began to discuss scenarios from cases
that they were working on unnamed of course. It was discovered that a great deal of the therapists' cases resulted in an impasse. These therapist began

Evaluation Of The New Edition Includes Supervision
Glickman, Gordon and Ross–Gordan (2014) wrote, "Like schools, supervision can be conventional, congenial, or collegial. Throughout most of its
history supervision has operated from within a conventional paradigm (world–view), attempting to control teachers ' instructional behaviors. Based on
what we know about successful schools, the time has come to move from conventional schools (still dominant in the United States) and congenial
schools (less prevalent throughout the nation) toward collegial schools (growing in number and success)." (p. 7). In order supervision in schools to
move towards a collegial style, there has to be a shift of thinking and focus to working with teachers, not teachers working for them.
According to Glickman, Gordon and Ross–Gordan (2014), the title of the new edition includes SuperVision, a term that denotes teaching and learning
should developed collaboratively amongst teachers and supervisors. This term also implies that this same group of individuals should work together to
build a democratic community where they make the school vision a reality (p. 8). In order to make this paradigm shift, supervisors have to understand
the different types of supervision and understand when they are appropriate to use. The four models include directive control behaviors, directive
informational behaviors, collaborative behaviors, and nondirective behaviors. Supervisors using the first type of supervision, direct control behaviors,

Languages : Python And Java
Programming languages are vast and diverse in their numbers. These different languages use fundamental styles of programming called programming
paradigms. These programming paradigms layout the particular design approach that a program will use to solve a problem or achieve an objective. Of
the many different types of programming paradigms, some of the more distinguished ones are procedural, functional, logical, and object orientated
programming. Recently the object orientated languages have been rising in popularity due to their ability to easily implement large programs. There
are many different object orientated programming languages (OOPLs), among them are C#, Java, Ruby, and Python. This essay will compare and
contrast two of these languages: Python and Java.
OOPLs have been around since the 1960's (Deitel, Java How to Program). They handle tasks by viewing them as a group of different objects.
Objects are created from a class which could be considered the blueprint. Objects contain data stored in fields, and the procedures which manipulate
the data are known as methods. These objects can interact with each other. There are some key elements of OOPLs, such as code reusability. In
OOPLs, through what is known as inheritance, code can be reused. Think of a cup, it is an object. It contains a liquid and overflows when it's full. If
you wanted to program a coffee mug, wine glass, or sports bottle, you could reuse the code for a cup though inheritance, then add extra fields

Life Of A Blessed And Faithful Man By J. Gerald Janzen Essay
The Book of Job dives into the life of a blessed and faithful man in which his life takes an unsuspecting turn. From the loss of property and loved
ones, to only be accused of wickedness by friends as the explanation of this calamity that has befallen Job. Author J. Gerald Janzen, whose personal
struggle has opened a corridor that creates a connection with the life of Job takes us on a walk with Job through his journey from prosperity, to loss
and bitterness then into the presence of God. At the Scent of Water will open our mind to the possibility of hope and grace to anyone who has gone
through suffering in the past or is going through times of difficulty in the presence.
The author uses distancing strategy to enable the engagement of the exilic and postexilic community. To highlight the two biblical paradigms for
divine human–relationship, clan–personal and cosmic–political associated to Abraham and Moses that is evident the history of Israel. The text also
plays out the argument between Job and friends within the Mosaic paradigm. The text also identifies the elements of the ancestral paradigm as reflected
in the introduction of the name and themes of Shadday. We also see the paradigm of clan religion is primary in thebook of job. With references to the
two domains of human experience, the familial and the political and the associated models of religious understanding come together in Job's oath to

My Learning Experience With A Radical Shake Up
Significant learning begins with a radical shake–up
I grew up, together with my four siblings, at a small village in the Philippines. Everyone there knew each other. In those days, I did not really think
that I learned something meaningful that would affect my life, but now I could say that I have a different perspective on "learning". I've realized so
many things from my experiences and I have seen life in a completely different perspective.
Growing up in a developing country gave me an opportunity to value things which I gave little importance to. When you want to achieve anywhere in
the world you need to be properly educated. Meaningful learning occurs when students are faced in a problem–posing environment.
Most Filipino families often define education as an investment placed on their children for them to continuously grow and pursue success on their line
of interest by achieving higher education. My learning experiences in the Philippines are completely different from my learning experiences here in the
United States. In the article entitled Play Deficit, the author states that "Children there spend more time at their studies than US children, and they
score higher on standardized international tests" (Gray 6). Indeed, most of the students in the Philippines dedicate their life to learning and gaining

Flourishing Summary Sparknotes
Summary
Flourishing is written by two authors who propose a radical approach to considering sustainability. They do not see the problem as simply
corporations causing harm to the environment, as it appears on the surface. They propose that the root problem within our society exists within our
culture. A major part of the book specifically tackles the way society has applied the concepts of capitalism. Originally where society consisted of
relationships between different individuals, individuals and nature, and individuals and themselves, the application of capitalism, along with the drive
from corporations towards consumerism, has created a culture in which satisfaction stems from "Having" more as oppose to simply "Being". The
book proposes we are no longer focussed on being satisfied with ourselves, and satisfied with what we have, whether it be the relationships around us
or the items we possess.
To solve these problems and the detriment to the environment that stems from them, the authors call for a complete paradigm shift in our current way of
living. To start off that shift they interpret the definition ofsustainability as being too limiting. They instead introduce the term of
sustainability–as–flourishing. This is basically a state in which an individual feels a sense of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

society to change its ways of operation, as society is nothing but a group of individuals. Although we are embedded in our traditional ways, this book

Most people assume that workplace diversity is about increasing racial, national, gender, or class representation –– in other words, recruiting and
retaining more people from traditionally underrepresented "identity groups." Taking this commonly held assumption as a starting point, we set out six
years ago to investigate its link to organizational effectiveness. We soon found that thinking of diversity simply in terms of identity–group
representation inhibited effectiveness. Organizations usually take one of two paths in managing diversity. In the name of equality and fairness, they
encourage (and expect) women and people of color to blend in. Or they set them apart in jobs that relate specifically to their backgrounds, assigning
them, for example, to areas that require them to interface with clients or customers of the same identity group. African American M.B.A. 's often find
themselves marketing products to innercity communities; Hispanics frequently market to Hispanics or work for Latin American subsidiaries. In those
kinds of cases, companies are operating on the assumption that the main virtue identity groups have to offer is a knowledge of their own people. This
assumption is limited –– and limiting –– and detrimental to diversity efforts. What we suggest here is that diversity goes beyond increasing the number
of different identity–group affiliations on the payroll to recognizing that such an effort is merely the first step in managing a diverse workforce for the

If what they say in their first statement is true, this is a good step. Exploring and communicating ways to improve upon our communities practices,

The next point mentioned in the mission statement is "We educate the campus community to create a healthier and more responsible environment".
Education of a community is how a paradigm shift will happen. Education about what is unsustainable, why being unsustainable is harmful, and how to
become more sustainable is absolutely vital in order to shift a community 's thoughts, ideas, and behaviors. Next the mission statement says that "We
develop progressive solutions to reduce negative environmental impacts in ways that are economically beneficial". Solutions to reduce negative
environmental impacts are what is needed in order to change from unsustainable to sustainable. Understanding problems won't help unless solutions to
those problems are known. Lastly, the mission statement says that "We create and consistently advocate for a diverse & inclusive culture of
sustainability throughout the campus community and beyond". By trying to create and advocate a culture of sustainability, they are also trying to shift

Effectiveness Of A Competitive Advantage

unrelenting, and largely unpredictable change. Retaining competitive advantage is a constant preoccupation for all companies. Millions of words have
been written purporting to identify the principles and practices most likely to enable firms to gain competitive advantage and, thereby, enjoy superior
profit margins. Despite all this study, management remains a testing ground where theory, experience, judgment and, sometimes, luck play a role.
According to Glenn (2009), approximately 90 per cent of senior executives who took a survey by The Economist's Magazine Intelligence Unit
understand that their organizations have to be agile to thrive in the marketplace. According to Merriam–Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, to be agile is
to have a "quick, resourceful and adaptable character" (Agile, 2016). Agility has classically been defined as simply the ability to change direction
rapidly (Bloomfield, Ackland, & Elliot, 1994; Clarke, 1959; Mathews, 1973), but also the ability to change direction rapidly and accurately (Barrow &
McGee, 1971; Johnson & Nelson, 1969). In more recent publications, some authors have defined agility to include whole–body change of direction as

state that since there has not been any advancements, psychoanalysis is simply unscientific. Thomas Kuhn, a philosopher of science, however, believes
that this view of science is not accurate. He wrote an article titled: The Structure of Scientific Revolution that made an argument that science does not
progress in a linear fashion in regards to knowledge, but rather science has two different forms of scientific knowledge accumulation. ... Show more

Epistemic values are another anomaly which are features that lend credit to theories. So, for example, one could point to the feature
comprehensiveness, which is the feature that treats all forms of mental illness for effectiveness. Another anomaly is an exemplar. During "normal
science" the scientist solves puzzles, and when he does finally solve one, it is known as an exemplar. As researchers puzzle–solved within a paradigm,
anomalies start to build up until it reaches a crisis, and a new paradigm is born. Psychoanalysis, it appears, is a science because it was born as a
revolutionary paradigm, entered the realm of normal science where it experienced a number of anomalies, and, finally, it got pushed aside by a new
revolutionary science, which is now the dominating paradigm, the bio–psycho–social paradigm. Examination 2 Short Answers #2 Szasz believes that
mental illness is a myth and that it is not a genuine illness because it is based on deviations of the moral/social sort, as opposed to bodily deviations.
He proposed an argument that is very effective because it relies, heavily, on familiar intuition. This argument is known as the Argument from Causality.

The Impermanence of Knowledge
"That which is accepted as knowledge today is sometimes discarded tomorrow." Consider knowledge issues raised by this statement in two areas of
knowledge.
Knowledge is defined as "justified true belief". The concept of justified true belief states that "in order to know that a given proposition is true,
one must not only believe the relevant true proposition, but one must also have justification for doing so ". New knowledge is based on the
credible theories, generalisations, which in turn are based on the observations and evidence. Theory & observation are inherently intertwined.
However, there is no perfect perception. Everything we see and hear is coloured by what we believe about the things and events we see and hear.
Hence, new knowledge depends on the evidence and the perception of the observer based on what he sees & hears which are again dependent on
the observers' beliefs and values and also on the bias of the individual / society in deciphering the same. "To what extent is the discarding of the
existing knowledge justified by an individual/ society?" While we see that the new knowledge is important, discarding of the existing knowledge
depends on the bias of the individual or firm or society at large. We shall consider the above knowledge issue in ethics & naturalscience by studying the
new knowledge received on Marijuana, change in generalisations for a child and paradigm shifts in astrophysics through emotion, perception and

Procedural Programing Assignment 1
Question 1
1.1. The two programming paradigms we get is Object–Orientated and Procedural. To understand what they are we need to explain what each are and
how they operate and what are the strengths and weaknesses of each. Now Procedural Programming languages are referred to as straight programming
taking on a read from the top to the end method, whereas Object–Oriented programming use objects and classes. Procedural takes on applications by
solving problems from using a top to down way reading the problem from the start and going through everything until the program is finished at the
end (Eliason, 2015).
So to see the scope of the two is to go into detail of what each does and how they function. Now Procedural you will provide step by step instructions
and the program will run through everything throughout the process and solve the problem. Procedural was mainly used in the earlier programming
languages, like COBOL or C (Gaddis, 2016). Object–Oriented languages use a different way of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
An OOP language can use a group of objects that will send message when they are called for a request for a specific service or information. Objects
is able to pass or receive messages or process information in the form of data. The reason we use OOP is that it makes maintaining code easier and
faster to change and modify existing code. That mean we cut down on development time and changing the programme much easier. Also
Object–Orientated Programming is more efficient at memory management, and thus makes it more effective towards Procedural, where you must
manage your own memory usage.
So in short Object–oriented programming uses data fields and Procedural Programming use procedures (Elisason,2015).

Theory Analysis And Skill Training
1.Briefly explain the concept of paradigm.
A paradigm is defined as the fundamental way in which we think and define reality. It may include values and beliefs that influence our decisions
on what is real and what is not. It is how we know the things we know. It is our own awareness of ourselves as observers and knowers and may
relate to how we think and act in certain situations. It is also how we process what is real and how we present our knowings to others. In a paradigm no
right or wrong answers are presented but instead fundamental assumptions are used.
2.What is the dominant paradigm guiding practice and research in special education? Explain a few key features of this paradigm.
The dominant paradigm is known as the Newtonian Mechanistic Paradigm and is often referred to as the machine paradigm. This paradigm views
animals and humans as machines. Simplicity is very important and all complexity is often broken down and translated. Information is arranged
logically and sequentially. The theory includes task analysis and skill training and has a focus on quantity instead of quality. It also ranks human
behavior. This method does not value personal knowledge or individuality. It does not focus on the process of learning or students motivation for
learning.

Technology And The World Wide Web Essay
The rapid world of technology is quickly changing the way knowledge is learned, and taught. Those who have access to the World Wide Web have
new ways of exploring the realm of education from all directions instead of retrieving knowledge from traditional places like college. However,
college is different because it is not only a place to gain knowledge, but also an environment that prepares students for the real world. In Davidson's
paper, she believes that we need to change the way higher education is structured and adapt techniques that are already integrated within open source
media, in order for students to be equipped for the technological global environment. Instead today's education is only preparing them for a Taylorized
industrial age labor market. Davidson poses a new paradigm for the way we perceive modern education. She introduces three principles that are used in
open source media that applicable to higher education. The three principles that online platforms support are, 1) an openness of contribution, 2)
elimination of boundaries, and 3) voluntarism in the distribution of knowledge.An openness of contribution of knowledge permits anyone to share their
intellect with others, regardless of their educational background and it also welcomes everybody to participate. Secondly, by eliminating structures and

Summary Of Virginia WoolfA Room Of One's Own
The creativity and ideas of women have been stifled and ignored since the beginning of time. Seen as the weaker, less intelligent sex women were
not believed to be able to create important works, especially those of literary importance. In "A Room of One's Own" by Virginia Woolf, the author
expresses a simple idea that women need at least a room of their own to produce the work that they have been told they are unable to. Through stories
of her thought process to reach this conclusion, Virginia Woolf concludes the idea that people should "think of things in themselves" (39) and in
doing so presents a challenge to both sexes to understand what she argues are the causes and problems stemming from lack of economic freedom
for women and social paradigms that hinder the act of truly thinking independently. Woolf's concept of free thinking stems from her questioning of
the instincts of men and their ability to do whatever they want to further themselves and have their own opinions and possessions, and while she
feels bad for them at first she realizes the freedom they have. Her idea of free thinking grows from her new found economic independence given to
her by her aunt. Before receiving her inheritance Woolf could be found doing odd jobs around town that she does not "describe in any detail the
hardness of the work, for you know perhaps women who have done it; nor the difficulty of living on the money when it was earned, for you may have
tried" (37). It's interesting that Woolf

Paradigm Vs Traditional Paradigm
A paradigm is a model of a situation or a mindset. Paradigms can be rigid or constantly developing as you learn and grow, physically maturing or
emotionally evolving. Initially, a paradigm was referring to an accepted model or pattern. In Structure, Thomas Kuhn defined a paradigm simply as a
group of exemplary problem solutions universally accepted by the members of a scientific community (Brad Wray, 2012). According to Kuhn, what
constitute a paradigm are not abstract theories, but concrete applications of the theories for solutions of typical problem. Paradigm can provide new
ways of understanding behaviors in humans such as in individuals, organization, family, community or group and global context. The paradigm concept

Traditionally, being white is superior across the board, while the alternative paradigm would celebrate the rich color of diversity. A traditional
paradigm that has gone on for centuries would be the sales and promotion of white baby dolls. Until the modern–day alternative paradigm shift in the
celebration of diversity, all children were presented with a white baby doll as a gift. This paradigm skewed the thought of what a perfect baby looked
like, leaving children and even adults absorbing from the youngest age that white was superior. Currently, a child can find a doll to match their hair
color, eye color and skin color with facial features that reflect their ethnicity.

The Importance Of Knowledge In Art
Knowledge lies at the foundation of everything in society. While it may not always be noticed, it is always present. This knowledge is used in an
array of processes such as creativity, experimentation, analysis, and so much more. From process to process, or area of knowledge to area of
knowledge, all knowledge incorporates the processes of both transformation and description in order to evolve as justifiable beliefs. Transformative
knowledge includes the product of an individual's implementation of their personal cognitive processes to challenge traditional perspectives, while
descriptive knowledge results when individuals utilize the new perspectives, allowing fresh outlooks to be perceived. While all areas of knowledge
incorporate the use of both processes, some may primarily use one or the other. This can be seen in the areas of art and natural sciences. Knowledge in
arts seems to primarily describe the world, while knowledge in natural sciences seeks to transform it through innovation and much more.
The area of art is popularly known for heightening emotions, challenging stereotypes, and ultimately providing insights into how individuals view the
surrounding world. The artist and the observer time and time again see pieces in overwhelmingly different ways. Individuals may wonder why this is

What is Procedural Programming Paradigm?
In Information Technology(IT) jargon Programming is termed as an innovative process where the computer receives instructions how to perform a task
as per the requirement or solving a specific problem.
The various ways of attending to the process of programming is known as programming paradigms.
Majority of programming language comes under one paradigm; contrary to this one could observe some languages having elements of multiple
paradigms. Paradigm is a way where a specific code is arranged. A code comprises various commands or instructions there in relation to functions and
or procedures.

scientific experiment, Man must not rely on past scientific breakthroughs as they can change over time. Instead Men must find new scientific
breakthroughs for a better understanding of the world around them. Once there is a need for a paradigm shift, it is vital for Men to reject an old
paradigm and focus on the new one. In order to solve the anomalies created by the shift, men create new rules and principals that can define it. Thus

Often, leadership is thought of in terms of individual personality traits or characteristics (e.g. sociable, self–confident leaders), or in terms of social
roles (e.g. leaders in the field of criminal justice, education, the church, and health–care), and the skills needed for functioning in such roles (e.g. the
ability to control a situation, the ability to develop the capacity of others, the ability to produce followers, the ability to transform a situation), or in
terms of leadership style (e.g. laissez faire, authoritarian, authoritative, transformative). However, when thinking in terms of discrete elements of
leadership such as traits, roles, skills, and styles, one's attention is primarily focused on what Whitney McIntyre Miller and Zachary Gabriel Green

Procedural Programming Of Programming Languages
Programming Languages
Definition of the term "program"
A program in computing is a predefined list of instructions that, when run or 'executed ', tell a computer to carry out a task and how to it.
Overview of procedural, object orientated and event driven programs
In programming, there are many different paradigms, also known as structures or styles that allow the programmer a means to build or structure
different elements within a computer program. These paradigms are: procedural, event driven and object orientated.
Applications that can be developed using these paradigms
Procedural programming uses a list of instructions to tell the computer what to do step–by–step. Procedural programming relies on – you guessed it –
procedures, also known as routines or subroutines. A procedure contains a series of computational steps to be carried out. Procedural programming is
also referred to as imperative programming. Procedural programming languages are also known as top–down languages.
Procedural programming is intuitive in the sense that it is very similar to how you would expect a program to work. If you want a computer to do
something, you should provide step–by–step instructions on how to do it. It is, therefore, no surprise that most of the early programming languages are
all procedural.

desires is teaching me to listen and find alternative means of communication. In essence, they are teaching me to be a better communicator. I think this
is congruent with Sayers concept of meaningful contribution. There are still so many things about the brain that we do not understand that I would
find it arrogant of me to assume that the person with dementia does not feel they are still contributing to society in some way.

Notes On Retrieval Induced Forgetting

  • 1. Notes On Retrieval Induced Forgetting Experiment 6 Retrieval induced forgetting Aarti N. Shah Roll Number: 21 MA–I University of Mumbai Department of Applied Psychology and Counseling Centre Abstract Using the retrieval–practice paradigm (Anderson, R. A. Bjork, & E. L. Bjork, 1994), it was tested whether or not retrieval–induced forgetting could be found in item recognition test in terms of RT and accuracy. In this experiment retrieval practice on items from semantic categories depressed recognition of non–practiced items from the same categories reflected in terms of RT and accuracy. Also the results are consistent with the hypothesis that the accuracy in recognition of rp+ (Practiced items from practice categories) items will be highest followed by nrp (Unpracticed items for the unpracticed categories) items and lowest for rp– (Unpracticed items from the practiced categories) items. The reaction time in recognition task will be lowest for rp+ item followed by nrp items and highest for rp– items. Introduction Memory is power in which the mind stores and remembers information. Memory is a process in which information is encoded stored and retrieved for later usage. Forgetting is an apparent loss of information already encoded and stored in an individual's memory. It is a spontaneous process wherein old memories are unable to be recalled from memory storage. Active forgetting can be stated as an evidence for functional inhibition as a source of one's memory failure. (Anderson, 1994). There ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 2. Push : Paradigm Complexities : Essay Push: Paradigm Complexities 1 INTRODUCTION In Sapphire's (1997) novel Push, she emphasizes an overall theme of surviving and overcoming adversities like identity, mental disability, and self–image. The dynamics of the book focuses on Clarice Precious Jones, a maltreated and obese, African American teenager who struggles with the repercussions of being physically, sexually, and psychologically abused by her parents– mainly, getting impregnated by her father. Precious and her first child by her father, whom she named Little Mongo, is used by her mother as a means of survival to receive welfare checks. Aside from her abuse, Precious is forced to cook, clean and attend to her non–ambulatory mom, Mary. Carl, her dad, continuously rapes her under the assumption that she "likes it and dies for it" (Sapphire, 1997, p. 24), even though her body is responding accordingly to its biological function. While she is raped, she is disembodied and copes with her abuse by occupying her mind with thoughts of "changing bodies" (Sapphire, 1997, p. 24). As an underprivileged African American residing in Harlem, she authenticates the embedded societal value of being "light skinned, thereby treated right and loved by boyz" (Sapphire, 1997, p. 113). Her hardships and the realization of not fitting into that criteria, makes her wish that she wasn't alive and entertains thoughts of suicide (Sapphire, 1997). The story unfolds when Precious is suspended for being pregnant. Regardless of her commitment ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 3. Programming Models Of Wsn System Research Proposal Title Programming Models of WSN System: A State–of–the–Art Survey Introduction There are a lot scenarios need different sensor nodes to collaborate and integrated on the air into networks to facilitate applications. The scaled–down censoring system presented below is an example of those wireless sensor networks (WSN). In this system sensors are different between corridors area and manufacturing area, since they need different precise level. Those sensors combined together by different wireless AP and provide services to different applications inside and outside the plant. This is where virtualization shines. Virtualization creates an uniformed environment in heterogeneous sensor networks. It bridge the gap between infrastructure and applications. And the network and sensor virtualization can achieved by the middleware. Middleware hide unnecessary details and complexity of the underlying heterogeneous infrastructures, like different sensor nodes and different wireless AP in the presented scenario. Software designs and programming approaches for the middleware design should facilitate the balance between communication and computing. Energy awareness, routing, efficient resource utilization and data delivery have always been the key parameters for an efficient programming model for WSN. Motivating Scenario Fig 1.

  • 4. Difference Between Object Oriented And Object-Driven... Unit 6 Assignment by Ali Shafiq (P1–P2) In programming, there are three different types of paradigms that we use in programming. And they are procedural, object–oriented and event–driven programming paradigms. Procedural Language Procedural programming is a programming paradigm which is derived from structured programming and it is based upon the concept of the procedure call such as where you can keep a record of procedure call programs. It's also a list or set of instructions telling a computer what to do step by step. Also tell the computer how to perform from the first code to the second code. The program can be broken into procedures or subroutines or functions such as Anglo, C and Pascal. Procedural programming uses a list of instruction to tell the computer what to do step by step. It relies on procedures, routines and sub–routine. The procedural contents of capitation of steps to be carry ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Object–oriented programming is a programming language model organized around objects. And it represents the concept of object that has data fields. The Object–oriented programming is a type of language that is oriented around objects. They do not base their action on the logic that manipulate the object, but on object. By using object–oriented, you can solve problems. The object–oriented language is a type of programming that is kept in a single unit called object. Meaning that the only way user can access the data is by using the objects methods. This can insure that the user will be incapable of corrupting the object and also internal working can be changed without corrupting the code using the object. Some of the limitations for this programming language are that you have to do most of the task manually. Object oriented programming is also limited with low amount of functions as comparing to low programming that interacts directly with hardware.

  • 7. Psychological Paradigm Shift : The Beauty Of The Old And... Psychological Paradigm Shift: The Beauty of the Old and Need for the New I had the pleasure of reading an article titled, Psychological Paradigm Shift: The Beauty of the Old and Need for the New. This article is framed around Jungian theory, in fact what comes to mind for me is individuation. I say that, because in this article the therapist is tasked with aiding the patient with bringing a conscious reality to a psychological reality that is unique to the patient. This paper will give a brief description of what the environment looks like at a Jungian conference, according to the author. What to do when you reach an impasse and recognizing that a paradigm shift is beneficial for treatment. This article in part references a Jungian conference attended by the author and his wife who happens to be psychologists. According to Simon (2016), a great deal of the individuals, who attended this conference were mental health professionals. The picture he paints is one of a philosophical pilgrimage, attended by "dreamers, truth –seekers, self–reflectors" and individuals of that nature. During the course of this conference, a majority of the therapist began to discuss scenarios from cases that they were working on unnamed of course. It was discovered that a great deal of the therapists' cases resulted in an impasse. These therapist began to discuss some of the past paradigms shifts that took place in counseling. In particular, at this conference many people were looking ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 8. Evaluation Of The New Edition Includes Supervision Glickman, Gordon and Ross–Gordan (2014) wrote, "Like schools, supervision can be conventional, congenial, or collegial. Throughout most of its history supervision has operated from within a conventional paradigm (world–view), attempting to control teachers ' instructional behaviors. Based on what we know about successful schools, the time has come to move from conventional schools (still dominant in the United States) and congenial schools (less prevalent throughout the nation) toward collegial schools (growing in number and success)." (p. 7). In order supervision in schools to move towards a collegial style, there has to be a shift of thinking and focus to working with teachers, not teachers working for them. According to Glickman, Gordon and Ross–Gordan (2014), the title of the new edition includes SuperVision, a term that denotes teaching and learning should developed collaboratively amongst teachers and supervisors. This term also implies that this same group of individuals should work together to build a democratic community where they make the school vision a reality (p. 8). In order to make this paradigm shift, supervisors have to understand the different types of supervision and understand when they are appropriate to use. The four models include directive control behaviors, directive informational behaviors, collaborative behaviors, and nondirective behaviors. Supervisors using the first type of supervision, direct control behaviors, are assertive and ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 9. Languages : Python And Java Programming languages are vast and diverse in their numbers. These different languages use fundamental styles of programming called programming paradigms. These programming paradigms layout the particular design approach that a program will use to solve a problem or achieve an objective. Of the many different types of programming paradigms, some of the more distinguished ones are procedural, functional, logical, and object orientated programming. Recently the object orientated languages have been rising in popularity due to their ability to easily implement large programs. There are many different object orientated programming languages (OOPLs), among them are C#, Java, Ruby, and Python. This essay will compare and contrast two of these languages: Python and Java. OOPLs have been around since the 1960's (Deitel, Java How to Program). They handle tasks by viewing them as a group of different objects. Objects are created from a class which could be considered the blueprint. Objects contain data stored in fields, and the procedures which manipulate the data are known as methods. These objects can interact with each other. There are some key elements of OOPLs, such as code reusability. In OOPLs, through what is known as inheritance, code can be reused. Think of a cup, it is an object. It contains a liquid and overflows when it's full. If you wanted to program a coffee mug, wine glass, or sports bottle, you could reuse the code for a cup though inheritance, then add extra fields ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Change Your Beliefs Do you agree with what the greatest Self–Help Success author of all time Napoleon Hill (author of Think & Grow Rich) said, "Whatever the mind can conceive and believe it will achieve"?

Your beliefs create yourparadigm of life–– the way it is, whatever the "it" is we're talking about. There are paradigms for every domain of life and work.

From the loss of property and loved ones, to only be accused of wickedness by friends as the explanation of this calamity that has befallen Job. Author J. Gerald Janzen, whose personal struggle has opened a corridor that creates a connection with the life of Job takes us on a walk with Job through his journey from prosperity, to loss and bitterness then into the presence of God. At the Scent of Water will open our mind to the possibility of hope and grace to anyone who has gone through suffering in the past or is going through times of difficulty in the presence. The author uses distancing strategy to enable the engagement of the exilic and postexilic community. To highlight the two biblical paradigms for divine human–relationship, clan–personal and cosmic–political associated to Abraham and Moses that is evident the history of Israel. The text also plays out the argument between Job and friends within the Mosaic paradigm. The text also identifies the elements of the ancestral paradigm as reflected in the introduction of the name and themes of Shadday. We also see the paradigm of clan religion is primary in thebook of job. With references to the two domains of human experience, the familial and the political and the associated models of religious understanding come together in Job's oath to give healing and ease of pain.

  • 15. My Learning Experience With A Radical Shake Up Significant learning begins with a radical shake–up I grew up, together with my four siblings, at a small village in the Philippines. Everyone there knew each other. In those days, I did not really think that I learned something meaningful that would affect my life, but now I could say that I have a different perspective on "learning". I've realized so many things from my experiences and I have seen life in a completely different perspective. Growing up in a developing country gave me an opportunity to value things which I gave little importance to. When you want to achieve anywhere in the world you need to be properly educated. Meaningful learning occurs when students are faced in a problem–posing environment. Most Filipino families often define education as an investment placed on their children for them to continuously grow and pursue success on their line of interest by achieving higher education. My learning experiences in the Philippines are completely different from my learning experiences here in the United States. In the article entitled Play Deficit, the author states that "Children there spend more time at their studies than US children, and they score higher on standardized international tests" (Gray 6). Indeed, most of the students in the Philippines dedicate their life to learning and gaining more knowledge. High school students have to go to school early.

  • 16. Flourishing Summary Sparknotes Summary Flourishing is written by two authors who propose a radical approach to considering sustainability. They do not see the problem as simply corporations causing harm to the environment, as it appears on the surface. They propose that the root problem within our society exists within our culture. A major part of the book specifically tackles the way society has applied the concepts of capitalism. Originally where society consisted of relationships between different individuals, individuals and nature, and individuals and themselves, the application of capitalism, along with the drive from corporations towards consumerism, has created a culture in which satisfaction stems from "Having" more as oppose to simply "Being". The book proposes we are no longer focussed on being satisfied with ourselves, and satisfied with what we have, whether it be the relationships around us or the items we possess. To solve these problems and the detriment to the environment that stems from them, the authors call for a complete paradigm shift in our current way of living. To start off that shift they interpret the definition ofsustainability as being too limiting. They instead introduce the term of sustainability–as–flourishing.

Most people assume that workplace diversity is about increasing racial, national, gender, or class representation –– in other words, recruiting and retaining more people from traditionally underrepresented "identity groups." Taking this commonly held assumption as a starting point, we set out six years ago to investigate its link to organizational effectiveness. We soon found that thinking of diversity simply in terms of identity–group representation inhibited effectiveness. Organizations usually take one of two paths in managing diversity. In the name of equality and fairness, they encourage (and expect) women and people of color to blend in. Or they set them apart in jobs that relate specifically to their backgrounds, assigning them, for example, to areas that require them to interface with clients or customers of the same identity group. African American M.B.A. 's often find themselves marketing products to innercity communities; Hispanics frequently market to Hispanics or work for Latin American subsidiaries. In those kinds of cases, companies are operating on the assumption that the main virtue identity groups have to offer is a knowledge of their own people. This assumption is limited –– and limiting –– and detrimental to diversity efforts. What we suggest here is that diversity goes beyond increasing the number of different identity–group affiliations on the payroll to recognizing that such an effort is merely the first step in managing a diverse workforce for the ...

The next point mentioned in the mission statement is "We educate the campus community to create a healthier and more responsible environment". Education of a community is how a paradigm shift will happen. Education about what is unsustainable, why being unsustainable is harmful, and how to become more sustainable is absolutely vital in order to shift a community 's thoughts, ideas, and behaviors. Next the mission statement says that "We develop progressive solutions to reduce negative environmental impacts in ways that are economically beneficial". Solutions to reduce negative environmental impacts are what is needed in order to change from unsustainable to sustainable. Understanding problems won't help unless solutions to those problems are known. Lastly, the mission statement says that "We create and consistently advocate for a diverse & inclusive culture of sustainability throughout the campus community and beyond". By trying to create and advocate a culture of sustainability, they are also trying to shift the paradigms from the dominate to ecological.

The article begins by examining the notion of paradigms and worldviews as currently used in the nursing literature and suggests that the concept of a single paradigm supports a philosophy inconsistent with nursing's goal of building knowledge on the nature of the human response. Next, the strength of plurality in nursing knowledge development, its warrantable evidence, and the concept of a unity of knowledge to support knowledge development and practice is articulated. Finally, the nursing practice implications of this perspective are discussed. Worldviews and Paradigms Worldviews and paradigms have been accepted in nursing as essential to researchers' theoretical perspectives, delineation of research questions, and ultimately to the selection of research methods. The search for a nursing paradigm as a means of knowledge development has been extensively reviewed in the nursing literature (Fawcett, 1995; Keywords: knowledge development, paradigm, warrantable evidence, worldview Downloaded from nsq.sagepub.com at UNIV OF KENTUCKY on September 4, 2012 244 Nursing Science Quarterly, 18:3, July 2005 and conversion.

Many Object–oriented languages have come in market but among them companies prefer to use open source OO languages such as Java, C++, C# .NET, and Visual Basic .NET etc. The demand for these languages has increased because the cost of licensing is very less or nothing. As these languages are open source, it easy to find relevant libraries and source code for the developers while developing a product. The cost of the infrastructure such as development IDE's or testing tools are also minimal or available for free. Hence all these factors decrease the cost of developing a product using Object–oriented technology. The basic concept of OO language is Objects.

Effectiveness Of A Competitive Advantage Increasingly, firms find themselves, either by design or circumstances, operating in business environments fraught with unprecedented, unparalleled, unrelenting, and largely unpredictable change. Retaining competitive advantage is a constant preoccupation for all companies. Millions of words have been written purporting to identify the principles and practices most likely to enable firms to gain competitive advantage and, thereby, enjoy superior profit margins. Despite all this study, management remains a testing ground where theory, experience, judgment and, sometimes, luck play a role. According to Glenn (2009), approximately 90 per cent of senior executives who took a survey by The Economist's Magazine Intelligence Unit understand that their organizations have to be agile to thrive in the marketplace. According to Merriam–Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, to be agile is to have a "quick, resourceful and adaptable character" (Agile, 2016). Agility has classically been defined as simply the ability to change direction rapidly (Bloomfield, Ackland, & Elliot, 1994; Clarke, 1959; Mathews, 1973), but also the ability to change direction rapidly and accurately (Barrow & McGee, 1971; Johnson & Nelson, 1969).

It seems that nothing has progressed, and as such, one could state that since there has not been any advancements, psychoanalysis is simply unscientific. Thomas Kuhn, a philosopher of science, however, believes that this view of science is not accurate.

As researchers puzzle–solved within a paradigm, anomalies start to build up until it reaches a crisis, and a new paradigm is born. Psychoanalysis, it appears, is a science because it was born as a revolutionary paradigm, entered the realm of normal science where it experienced a number of anomalies, and, finally, it got pushed aside by a new revolutionary science, which is now the dominating paradigm, the bio–psycho–social paradigm.

Knowledge is defined as "justified true belief". The concept of justified true belief states that "in order to know that a given proposition is true, one must not only believe the relevant true proposition, but one must also have justification for doing so ". New knowledge is based on the credible theories, generalisations, which in turn are based on the observations and evidence. Theory & observation are inherently intertwined. However, there is no perfect perception. Everything we see and hear is coloured by what we believe about the things and events we see and hear. Hence, new knowledge depends on the evidence and the perception of the observer based on what he sees & hears which are again dependent on the observers' beliefs and values and also on the bias of the individual / society in deciphering the same.

Procedural takes on applications by solving problems from using a top to down way reading the problem from the start and going through everything until the program is finished at the end (Eliason, 2015). So to see the scope of the two is to go into detail of what each does and how they function. Now Procedural you will provide step by step instructions and the program will run through everything throughout the process and solve the problem.

Objects is able to pass or receive messages or process information in the form of data. The reason we use OOP is that it makes maintaining code easier and faster to change and modify existing code. That mean we cut down on development time and changing the programme much easier. Also Object–Orientated Programming is more efficient at memory management, and thus makes it more effective towards Procedural, where you must manage your own memory usage.

It may include values and beliefs that influence our decisions on what is real and what is not. It is how we know the things we know. It is our own awareness of ourselves as observers and knowers and may relate to how we think and act in certain situations. It is also how we process what is real and how we present our knowings to others. In a paradigm no right or wrong answers are presented but instead fundamental assumptions are used. 2.What is the dominant paradigm guiding practice and research in special education? Explain a few key features of this paradigm. The dominant paradigm is known as the Newtonian Mechanistic Paradigm and is often referred to as the machine paradigm. This paradigm views animals and humans as machines. Simplicity is very important and all complexity is often broken down and translated. Information is arranged logically and sequentially. The theory includes task analysis and skill training and has a focus on quantity instead of quality. It also ranks human behavior. This method does not value personal knowledge or individuality.

She introduces three principles that are used in open source media that applicable to higher education. The three principles that online platforms support are, 1) an openness of contribution, 2) elimination of boundaries, and 3) voluntarism in the distribution of knowledge.An openness of contribution of knowledge permits anyone to share their intellect with others, regardless of their educational background and it also welcomes everybody to participate.

Seen as the weaker, less intelligent sex women were not believed to be able to create important works, especially those of literary importance. In "A Room of One's Own" by Virginia Woolf, the author expresses a simple idea that women need at least a room of their own to produce the work that they have been told they are unable to. Through stories of her thought process to reach this conclusion, Virginia Woolf concludes the idea that people should "think of things in themselves" (39) and in doing so presents a challenge to both sexes to understand what she argues are the causes and problems stemming from lack of economic freedom for women and social paradigms that hinder the act of truly thinking independently. Woolf's concept of free thinking stems from her questioning of the instincts of men and their ability to do whatever they want to further themselves and have their own opinions and possessions, and while she feels bad for them at first she realizes the freedom they have. Her idea of free thinking grows from her new found economic independence given to her by her aunt. Before receiving her inheritance Woolf could be found doing odd jobs around town that she does not "describe in any detail the hardness of the work, for you know perhaps women who have done it; nor the difficulty of living on the money when it was earned, for you may have tried" (37).

This paradigm skewed the thought of what a perfect baby looked like, leaving children and even adults absorbing from the youngest age that white was superior. Currently, a child can find a doll to match their hair color, eye color and skin color with facial features that reflect their ethnicity.

I had to login to the Discussion Board everyday for about 40 minutes and read some chapters which are available in Learning Materials. After carefully studying and analyzing the materials available, I have to ask the author some questions which are related to the text, background assumptions, practical and professional implications, social and ethical consequences , or research implications. I put on the weekly readings many contributions; all of them were related to the module. Aside from that, we also have activities on Online Delivery which contain discussion about ethical case studies and the nature of research. I enjoyed reading the case studies because they focus on ethical issues in many organisations. I have written some comments to identify the stakeholders, ethical issues, my point of view, and a brief debate. Of all the materials, I ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Type of Paradigm Object–Oriented In this paradigm we associate behaviour with data–structures called Description Example "objects" which belong to classes, which are usually structured into a hierarchy. Functional Computations are expressed as the evaluation of mathematical functions, relying on immutability and statelessness. Logical Computations are expressed exclusively in terms of mathematical logic. The logic paradigm focuses on predicate logic, in which the basic concept is a relation. Imperative The language provides statements, such as assignment statements, class Dog { int age, weight ; string colour } ; public: void bark() { cout << "WOOF!" << endl;} john(x) + john(x) = 2*john(x) brother (X,Y) /* X is the brother of Y */ :– /* if there are two people F and M for which*/ father(F,X), /* F is the father of X */ father(F,Y), /* and F is the father of Y ...

  • 42. Procedural Programming Of Programming Languages Programming Languages Definition of the term "program" A program in computing is a predefined list of instructions that, when run or 'executed ', tell a computer to carry out a task and how to it. Overview of procedural, object orientated and event driven programs In programming, there are many different paradigms, also known as structures or styles that allow the programmer a means to build or structure different elements within a computer program. These paradigms are: procedural, event driven and object orientated. Applications that can be developed using these paradigms Procedural programming uses a list of instructions to tell the computer what to do step–by–step. Procedural programming relies on – you guessed it – procedures, also known as routines or subroutines. A procedure contains a series of computational steps to be carried out. Procedural programming is also referred to as imperative programming. Procedural programming languages are also known as top–down languages. Procedural programming is intuitive in the sense that it is very similar to how you would expect a program to work. If you want a computer to do something, you should provide step–by–step instructions on how to do it. It is, therefore, no surprise that most of the early programming languages are all procedural. The procedural paradigm uses a list of instructions as a basis. These tell the computer what to do, and how to do it step by step. The procedural paradigm does rely on subroutines or ...

Paradigm shift was something I learnt the first time when my anthropology professor used it, and then three days later I heard my chemistry teacher use it to explain the development in chemistry; specifically, about how famous German chemists would build off of each other's' ideas and causeparadigm shifts in the world of science. That isn't the term I care much about though. Third Culture Kid, was the term that ended up capturing exactly how I felt. The colour of my skin didn't seem to reflect the values I believed in. They weren't in line with the values my parents held, and it always confused me ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The daughter is getting married to a man she doesn't know very well and twelve–year–old Siddhima is old enough to understand the concept of an arranged marriage but she isn't OK with it. She still has to defend the idea to those who don't understand the concept. She has to defend opinions she doesn't fully believe in, more often than she likes. Mario says ik hou van jou to Janneke from the Netherlands, te quiero to Javier from Guatemala, ana ouhibuk to Fatima from Jordan and I love you to John from Britain. Mario apparently is a privileged little shit who only cares about showing off his multi–lingual skills. What he doesn't come off as, is an inquisitive boy who enjoys connecting to people in their language, who tries to minimise awkwardness and bring familiarity by speaking another language. Mario chooses to stick to Spanish instead. Kamau loves dancing but his dancing is too white. He's too white to be black because he talks funny and ways woh–tuh like John from Britain instead of saying water like he is from Kenya. Kamau was hit by his father when he was seven because he came home late after sunset one night. Kamau expected to be hit by his father because it's how you discipline your child. Kamau didn't think it was child abuse but he better not be saying anything outside of Kenya because his best friend is going to back him up and call 911. Kamau better keep ...

  • 44. Essay about Philosophy and Therapeutic Recreation As I make my way on this journey that is my life, I realize that I have always believed in the fundamental worth of all humanity and my responsibility as a fellow human being to respect this premise and also to support individuals, as much as I am able, to help unearth it should this basic truth become hidden to them. This is a guiding principle for me and I believe that many of the constructs of the field of Therapeutic Recreation (TR) are congruent with this philosophy. Making the decision to obtain a Therapeutic Recreation Specialization (TRS) degree offered a theoretical rationale in which to further explore the concept of leisure, define my professional philosophy and an opportunity to reflect critically on the field which I have ...

Not only do I believe that all people have value, I likewise believe that all people can contribute to society. The client who can no longer articulate their thoughts or needs or desires is teaching me to listen and find alternative means of communication. In essence, they are teaching me to be a better communicator. I think this is congruent with Sayers concept of meaningful contribution. There are still so many things about the brain that we do not understand that I would find it arrogant of me to assume that the person with dementia does not feel they are still contributing to society in some way. This improved communication skill, from my perspective, is an essential and necessary benchmark for the establishment of an effective client /practitioner relationship. O'Keefe (2008) urges us to listen to the narrative, there's a story to be heard, if only we adjust our philosophical positioning.
