After reading the textbook, performing an internet research, and questioning friends/family, I believe birth is both a natural occurrence and a medical emergency. I really liked how the Netherlands handle home births, an expecting family is assigned a midwife (who is paid by the government!) and a “flying stork” (ambulance) wait at their house in case of a complication during the delivery period (Berger, 2016, p. 66). The method I would chose for my family would be a natural child birth at a…
Carnaval takes place around the Catholics’ time of lent. During carnaval, people dress up and crowd the streets in costumes. This is a time for people to feel freer than they would the rest of the year. Carnaval is celebrated before lent officially starts because the eating and drinking gets out of hand during the parties and festivities. The basis of the celebration can be traced back to Roman celebration and to Europe in the middle ages. Carnaval is largely celebrated in Spain, during…

the two approaches. In the two approaches they have used qualitative research, because they have used self reporting information and face to face interviews. When they make ITC survey for open-end questions they have country exception like ITC-Netherlands. There is no validity and reliability because the open-end responses were inspected when was possible. As well approaches were not used in all countries and there is no given time horizon.

By hitchhiking across Europe from England-to-Lithuania, I gained knowledge of differing cultures, cities, and peoples. For example, the Netherlands and Poland are both members of the EU, yet the Netherlands is urban and metropolitan, while Poland has a large open countryside and more traditional attitudes. I would not have learned this if I did not engage with my transporters and made an effort to overcome the language…

X-rays were first discovered by German scientist Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen in 1985. Roentgen found x-rays…
