during the author’s career as a Registered Nurse (RN). The cases are used to demonstrate dignity, beneficence, sympathy, nonmaleficence, respect for autonomy, and veracity. While the first case exhibits allowing a choice to occur, the second case counterpoints by exhibiting forcing a choice that may have otherwise not have happened. (This isn’t very fluid and I’m not sure if I should add more here… and if I should add more here, I’m not sure what to add here.) Clinical Situation #1 Introduction …

Before I start my speech, I just want to tell everyone competing in this round today that you are all winners, just for participating. Okay, let’s get real. We’re not all winners. Merely being involved does not necessarily equate to winning. Too often people expect trophies just for participating, and this leads to decoration obligation, which means an “inordinate commitment to honor with awards,” as Bruce Hood noted in his 2013 book The Self Illusion: How the Social Brain Creates Identity.…

I began to make passing mental annotations about the movies and literature I was ingesting, whether Catherine Barkley of A Farewell To Arms or Fitzgerald’s Daisy Buchanan modeled the humanity I saw in my mother or if they were simply a feminine counterpoint to emphasize the male protagonist’s masculinity. Not…

One of the most controversial topics in our world today is the idea of God. I will write my paper on how His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama and rabbi Abraham J. Heschel address the issue of a transcendent. People struggle with the continuous issue of whether or not God is real. They also struggle with the thought that if God is real, what is the purpose or what are you supposed to do with God in your life? Do you believe you were created by a supreme being with a specific purpose on how to live…

In recent years, developments in the technologies used by law enforcement organizations have been continually accelerating. Technology, from less-lethal devices, such as TASER, and forensic evidence to advanced crime analysis, aims to shape law enforcement and has redefined multiple aspects of policing (White, 2014). One of the most recent technologies is police body-worn camera system, which has already received extensive attentions among media and policing executives in 2013 (White, 2014). In…

After Keiler examines Bernstein’s logical fallacies, he dismantles Bernstein’s claims of the harmonic series as basis for all music. He writes that even the “simple diatonic scale requires…gross adjustment” (Keiler, 208). This is indeed true, with the fourth being 29 cents flat, the third 14 cents flat, and the seventh 12 cents flat (as compared to equal temperament tuning). Keiler also says the diatonic scale reaches into the outermost limits of the harmonic series. This is again factual, since…

Introduction Eugenics has become somewhat of a buzzword in mainstream discussions of the topic. As with most buzzwords, it is overused to the point of overshadowing broader applications of the topic (For an example see Peter Singer on Animal Rights pp. 196-203). Notwithstanding, this paper will discuss heavily the topic of Eugenics, and more specifically Julian Savulescu’s stand on Eugenics and whether he believes in endorsing a program of eugenics. Savulescu’s opinion will be analyzed mostly by…

Every childhood is comprised of iconic memories associated around sport. Whether it is playing catch with your father, making your first sports team at school, or simply frolicking outside with neighborhood friends, these events are centered on sports, not virtual sports. There is a fine line between the two. According to Dr. Ralph Richards the Senior Research Consultant for the Australian Sports Commission, sport is by definition “an activity involving physical exertion, skill and or…
