The murder of a Manhattan graduate student in 2006 gained much attention not only for the brutality of the act but also for its location. The 24-year-old woman was chatting with her friend in a local bar till 2:30 A.M. After the friend left, the woman left for another bar half an hour later. Her friend could not contact her after that. Around 17 hours later, an unknown caller informed the police about a body lying near a road. The woman was found brutally murdered by suffocation. Evidence suggested that she might have also been raped and assaulted by the murderer. What made the victim a suitable target for a potential killer? How could she have decreased her likelihood of victimization? In your opinion, could she have facilitated or precipitated her own murder? Provide a rationale for your answer. What could have she done to avoid landing in this situation? Cite at least two examples in which a "victim" overcame his or her victimizer. .

Shauna Betancourt Haley English 1301 1st December 2014 “Ted Bundy V.S The Zodiac Killer” Ted Bundy and The Zodiac Killer have a few things in common with each other, one being that they both are serial killers. In the 1970s Ted Bundy raped and murdered young women in several states, being connected to at least thirty-six murders. However The Zodiac Killers identity remains unknown, but is linked to at least seven murders in California. Theodore “Ted” Bundy was born on November 24, 1946 in Burlington, Vermont. During that time if you got pregnant before marriage in very religious families was considered scandalous and wrong. Eleanor Cowell was twenty-two years old and unmarried when she had her son. Growing up in a deeply religious family, Eleanor had her son at a home for unwed mothers in Vermont. To hide he was an “illegitimate child”, Bundy was raised as the adopted child of his grandparents and was told his mother was his sister. (A&E Television Network) The identity of his father remains unknown. At the age of three he became in love with the idea of knives. He was shy but a very smart child who did well in school. The older Ted got the more the darker side of character started to release. At first very popular, happy and smart at school in junior high once Ted reached high school he became less social not knowing how talk to girls or people in general, seeming less happy and his academic process seem to go down. In 1966 Ted met the love his life Stephanie Brooks. She was everything Ted wanted: beauty, money, class, and influence. But Bundy’s lack of confidence, and use of manipulation ruined the relationship. Stephanie broke up with Ted due to feeling that he was immature and too childish. Dropping in and out of different schools he finally majored in psychology and was accepted into a law school. Ted also got involved with politics receiving a letter of recommendation from the republican governor of Washington. During this time women in Seattle and Oregon area went missing. Ted moved to Utah in 1974 to attend law school when women started disappearing from there too. About a year later he was pulled over with tools including a crowbar, facemask, rope and handcuffs.(A&E Television Network) Following that was when Bundy started getting convicted of kidnap and murder. While Bundy was on trial for the murders and kidnappings he managed to escape from prison. In result his last attack was to the Chi Omega house where he raped and murder many girls. During this time he also kidnapped and killed a 12-year-old girl. He then shocked everyone by calling Carole Ann Boone to the witness stand and marrying her. Three years later she divorced him after realizing Bundy did commit the murders and gave birth to this daughter. After Bundy tried to save his life countless of times, he was sentenced to death on January 24th, 1989. Right before his execution he had one last interview. The national review noted that Bundy stated in the interv.

Details of Assignment Assume that you are an adviser at HITECH Ltd, which is analysing the introduction of a new game console named NEUROFORCE. This system can be connected with human brain functions and still very much controversial for claimed but yet to be confirmed adverse impacts on human behaviour after prolonged application. Health conscious groups are also lobbying against introduction of such games with probable detrimental effects. The project manager of HITECH Ltd needs a detail analysis on this exciting NEUROFORCE project. She comes into your office, drops a consultant’s report on your desk, and complains, “We paid these consultants $1 million for this report, and I am not sure their financial analysis makes sense, though their estimations seem to be correct. Before we spend $30 million on buying new equipment needed for this project, look it over and give me your opinion.” You open the report and find the following information and estimates: The project will continue for next 7 years, by that time more reliable information on possible adverse impacts of using NEUROFORCE will be available. It is projected that equipment will have economic life of 10 years. After buying the equipment, it requires to renovate the production bay at HITECH Ltd and install the equipment at a total cost of $1 million. These renovation and installation costs are to be considered as capital expenditures. Staff training cost of $100,000 is to be incurred initially at the start of the project. The equipment will be procured from SWEDEN and HITECH Ltd has to pay 8% import duty on purchase price, whereas the supplier will pay transportation costs of $70,000. These property, plant and equipment (PPE) would be depreciated over its useful life of 10 years using a tax allowable straight-line rate of 10%. However, the company is planning to sell the equipment at the end of the project for an estimated price of $6 million. Consultants estimate that 48,000 NEUROFORCE consoles can be sold in the first year with an expected increase by 25% in each year for next two years; afterwards sales are expected to decr.

The nursing metaparadigm offers insights concerning the nature in which the nursing profession should be set up and properly functioning. From the nursing perspective, the concept of the metaparadigms consists of four attributes including the patient as an entity, the patient’s environment, the well-being and health of the patient, and the responsibilities of the nurse (Alimohammadi et al., 2014). These four metaparadigms have a direct impact on the implementation of culturally proficient nursing care. With the advancement in technology and ease of patient access to quality care, there is an increased number of nurse-patient relations. The nurse has to ensure the provision of patient-centered care while focusing on the nursing metaparadigms. The aspect of culturally proficient nursing care makes use of the attitudes, knowledge, and skills that are in support of the caring of patients that originate from various cultures and ethnic backgrounds. In this accord, culture is able to directly influence the nature of the health care practice and the manner in which the healthcare provider, as well as the patient, perceives the diseases or illness (Lee, & Fawcett, 2013). Based on the theoretical frameworks that the nursing metaparadigm offers together with the assumptions, conceptual models, and propositions, the nurses can be in a position to comprehend the cultural aspect of patient care and act accordingly. The Person Component The patient, as the receiver of the care, makes up the person component aspect of the nursing metaparadigm. Other connections with the person component include close friends, family, and other social groups that are important to the patients and their overall well-being (Bahramnezhad et al., 2015). In this metaparadigm, nurses are able to comprehend the patient as and individuals and how they relate with others in society. The nurses are also able to understand the cultural aspects of the patient through an inquiry from the patient and close relatives in the event of patients who are not in a position to speak for themselves or make sound decisions. The Environment Component This concept of the nursing metaparadigm is focused on the natural and physical surrounding that impacts the day to day life of the patient. in order to offer culturally proficient care, it is important for the nurses to have a deep understanding of the patient’s environment, climatic condition, cultures, and other societal elements (Bahramnezhad et al., 2015). Be that as it may, the environment constitutes both internal and external influences that depict the nature in which the patient directly interacts with the surrounding which may or may not affect their health and wellness. Health Component While there is easy access to quality health care with the Affordable Care Act, the health component still focuses on the aspect of health care wellness and ease of access. The health component also focuses on the genetic makeup of the patient, social o.

The nursing metaparadigm concept I intend to focus on is person (patient or client). Person refers to a human being composed of needs: physical, intellectual, biochemical, and psychosocial (McEwen & Wills, 2019, p. 42). The person is an open system and is "greater than the sum of his or her parts" (McEwen & Wills, 2019, p. 42). The concept of person is most often the center of the nurse's attention and is the recipient of care. Regarding my personal and professional experiences, I have two very different definitions of what constitutes a client. In my pediatric cardiac ICU background, the person, or patient, was generally an infant with a cardiac defect. Currently, in my practice at a medical spa, my clients range from adolescents to the elderly, focusing on physical appearance. My focus on the "person" differs significantly from my previous role to my current role. In 1972, B. Neuman's theory stated that stress reduction is the nursing practice system model's goal ( Nursing Theories - Overview , 2020). Her theory defines "person" as the combination of the interrelationships between physiologic, psychological, sociocultural, developmental, and spiritual variables (McEwen & Wills, 2019, p. 43). Similarly, D. Johnson's 1968 nursing theory's goal is to reduce stress, as she focuses on how stressors affect illness adaptability ( Nursing Theories - Overview , 2020). Johnson's definition of "person" is a behavioral system with purposeful ways of behaving that connect them to their environments (McEwen & Wills, 2019, p. 43). Both Neuman and Johnson focus on decreasing stress as a way to care for patients. However, their definitions of person vary. Johnson implies that a patient's link to their environment is of most importance, and Neuman believes a person is a more integrated whole that can be singular or plural (as in a community, group, or entire social system) (McEwen & Wills, 2019, p. 43). Within my years of practice in nursing, my definition of person, client, or patient has altered. In my earlier career, I would have been more aligned with Neuman's theory. My patients, albeit more complex, needed more from me as their nurse from more than just an environmental standpoint; I correlated their needs as a holistic being. I was focusing on not just the patient but their support system as well. As a nurse in a med spa, my clients have patterned, repetitive concerns that influence their perceived environment in different ways, which coincide more with Johnson's theory .

The number of Americans ages 65 and older is projected to nearly double from 52 million in 2018 to 95 million by 2060, and the 65-and-older age group’s share of the total population will rise from 16 percent to 23 percent. [1] The older population is becoming more racially and ethnically diverse . Between 2018 and 2060 the share of the older population that is non-Hispanic white is projected to drop from 77 percent to 55 percent. [2] Despite the increased diversity in the older adult population, the more rapidly changing racial/ethnic composition of the population under age 18 relative to those ages 65 and older has created a diversity gap between generations. Older adults are working longer. By 2018, 24 percent of men and about 16 percent of women ages 65 and older were in the labor force. These levels are projected to rise further by 2026, to 26 percent for men and 18 percent for women. What does this mean for our society? 52 million people are 65 and over.
