Introduction Falls are a big concern for all employees in a hospital setting daily. The worst thing that can happen to a patient while being hospitalized is a fall, or a major fall, that could result in skin damage (i.e. wounds, skin tears, or abrasions), a fracture or break, thus limiting their independence. This student’s goal was to develop a way to educate staff members in ways they can help reduce the number of falls that occur. Developing a sample Fall Risk Prevention Policy as well as a Staff
Australia Day is annually celebrated on the 26th of January; the date recognises the initiation of British sovereignty over Australia in 1788. The nation’s achievements since then are nothing short of outstanding. As regarded as a considerably young nation, we have realized extraordinary growth, expansion, development, stature and respect across the globe; and deemed our greatest achievement, our multiculturalism. Yet despite these momentous attributes and reason to celebrate, we choose to commemorate
States has already repeatedly occurred the blackout. Especially in 1977, there was a large-scale power outages and the city became a big mess. At that time, blackout of 1977 not only resulting in significant economic losses, but also a power shortage triggered kind of serious public problems. It could be the strong contrast with the past blackout, so the blackout of 1977 was more striking and deeply impressive. On July 13, 1977 around 8:37 pm, a thunder from the sky, it left a huge arc in the night
As swans drift with the current on a secluded lake in upper Canada they think not of the water they are in but of dreams of the past and wants for the future. On the other hand, seals off the coast of Northern California fear for their lives every day of humans exploiting their natural habitat. Many things can endanger water born animals, and most all of these come directly from humans. The pollutants of water come from many sources both close and far away from the water body itself. Wastes of humans
A Man Disguised in Uniform The sun has risen, the weather is perfect, and Cesar Sosa finds himself already standing on the sideline of that soccer field. A typical weekend for this soccer coach has just begun. After 18 years of teaching soccer to many players of all ages and any gender, Cesar Sosa is one of the most well-known coaches in the city of El Paso, Texas. “He is more than just a coach he is also my friend who will always be there for me and my teammates,” said Jorge Hernandez, current
Ian Reid. The Short Story. London: Methuen, 1977. A Discussion. The intrinsic `properties' of the short story have been in debate for well over a century, often to disparate opinion. Ian Reid however, presents an article that is balanced and unprejudiced, but that simultaneously allows his subtle opinions to be easily ascertained. His views are hospitable and refreshingly broadminded, allowing the reader to derive for himself the right `choice'. Reid incorporates various opinions and approaches
C. THE UNFAIR CONTRACT TERMS ACT 1977 The basic purpose of UCTA 1977 is to restrict the extent to which liability in a contract can be excluded for breach of contract and negligence, largely by reference to a reasonableness requirement, but in some cases by a specific prohibition. S.6(2) states that as against a person dealing as consumer, liability for breach of the obligations arising from ss.13, 14 or 15 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 (seller's implied undertakings as to conformity of goods with
if it has been incorporated into the contract and, with reference to the interpretation, if it is extended to the breach in question; if both the previous matters are corroborated, the clause validity is tested under the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 and the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulation 1999. In our specific scenario the following clause is mentioned: “Electric Motors Ltd limits its liability for any breach of the terms implied by ss. 13-14 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 to £500
Introduction Coal mining in the United States is a major industry. In 2012, the coal mining industry employed nearly 90,000 people [1]. The Black Mesa Complex in Northern Arizona consists of two seperate coal mines, the Kayenta mine and the Black Mesa coal mines. Both mines are owned and operated by Peabody Western Coal Company (PWCC). The mines are located 10 miles southwest of Kayenta, AZ. The Kayenta mine is 40,000 acres (62.5 square miles), employs 430 workers [2], and is the 27th largest mine
Lindholm and Padilla (1977) study in the article “Language Mixing in Bilingual Children”, and these evidences agreed with their study. The study reveals that bilingual children differentiate their two languages when they are increased the age. Extending of their research, the result provides that most English words appear in Spanish utterances of Spanish-English children when bilingual children mix language at lexical, phonology and phrasal level. Lindholm and Padilla (1977) were starting the article
designed uniquely for their culture. Their village consisted of nine longhouses that formed a circle (Wagley 1977, 87). “The houses were not dwellings for a single nuclear family, but rather multifamily longhouses containing from three to eight nuclear families. They were, therefore, never of the same size – one or two were 20 meters long and 5 meters wide, but others were smaller” (Wagley 1977, 87). Inside of the longhouse each nuclear family had an area for sleeping and cooking. The Tapirapé Indians
debate, however, is not always clear. From a human context we know that language is a skill which allows us to communicate our thoughts to others and in so doing to attain desired "biological, cognitive, and social/behavioral feedback" (McDonnell, 1977). The question as to whether language is a skill that human beings are born with or whether it is a skill that is acquired is a complex one and not one in which all researchers are in agreement. Neither are researchers in agreement about whether animals
modern soul and of a new power to judge’ (Foucault, 1977) and opens with accounts of public execution and torture revealing how law and order is created because of the shift from these to prison rules and discipline. Foucault describes the quarantining and ‘strict spatial partitioning’ (Foucault, 1977, p195) employed during the plague which, to a certain extent , ‘provided the model for and general form of the great Confinement’ (Foucault, 1977, p198), a period during the late 1600s, during which
Motor Company began the development of a new car that would place it in the small-car market (Mark Dowie, 1977, p. 1). This automobile was named the Ford Pinto and would grow to become its biggest-selling subcompact vehicle (Mark Dowie, 1977, p. 2). Back in the mid-1960s, Ford’s then president had been involved in a collision that resulted in his car’s fuel tank bursting into flames (Mark Dowie, 1977, p. 1). With this occurrence, one would have imagined that the company would become aware of the fuel
Georgia, 1977). The circumstances the United States Supreme Court established is as follows: “(1) make no measurable contribution to acceptable goals of punishment, and hence is nothing more than the purposeless and needless imposition of pain and suffering; or (2) is grossly out of proportion to the severity of the crime” (Coker v. Georgia, 1977). The United States Supreme Court made is clear that public opinion would influence decisions regarding the death penalty(Coker v. Georgia, 1977). Lastly
counseling as “MOVE OVER and MOVE UP” (Crabb, 1977). Dr. Crabb theorizes that a counselor must help a client move over into the pathway of spiritual obedience and to move up in which the client obeys not only externally, but also internally (Crabb, 1977). By moving up, the client not only experiences a change in thinking, but ultimately that change also involves a change of heart, changed goals, and a transformation of the personality (Crabb, 1977). The effective Christian counselor will be able
that manipulate power relations to create, maintain and force the conforming of peoples to the given habitus of that society (Bourdieu, 1977). Power, is a force created through the social conventions of a specific community that dictate what is expected or accepted by the people while also determining how they understand the world in which they live (Bourdieu, 1977). Symbolic power is created and

either way." (Fagles, R., The Serpent and the Eagle, p. 73, Penguin Classics, 1977.) Orestes admits his guilt (with no small amount of rationalization) but also attempts to place the bulk of the blame on Apollo, "And Apollo shares the guilt - he spurred me on, he warned of the pains I'd feel unless I acted, brought the guilty down." (Aeschylus, The Eumenides, Robert Fagles Trans., lines 479 - 481, Penguin Classics, 1977.) Apollo is representative of the new gods and, more particularly, of Zeus. "In
gothic poets of the 19th century (Buranelli,1977). His poems are very dark, melancholy and make the reader feel strange when something so morbid becomes so beautiful. Burnelli does an impeccable job explaining the grotesque qualities of Poe’s work by saying that Poe’s imagination was both normal and abnormal. The mixture of these two elements heightened the reader’s sensitivity and the way they perceived the poems and short stories Poe produced (Buranelli,1977). He describes that, for Poe, the “unwillingness
