Question 1 In the article, “Climate Change Caused by Human Activities is Happening and it Already has Major Consequences,” Kevin Trenberth argues that human beings are the central instruments of climate change. The author explains that climate changes caused by humans could keep up in future (Trenberth 463). However, the society is not doing enough to prevent this problem and mitigate its potential impacts. Question 2 The primary sources of information for this article are research institutions, such as the National Center for Atmospheric Research and the US Global Change Research Program (USGCRP). The sources used are reliable. Additionally, Kevin Trenberth is a prominent scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, so his opinion and findings are credible and trustworthy.
First 2 pages of the 1 chapter. In the first two pages of the book “The Man in the High Castle”, the author utilizes a variety of literary devices that allow him to depict the necessary background information to understand and describe the storyline. The use of direct speech, as well as multiple cases of imagery can be seen throughout these pages. In the second page, an interaction between Mr. Tagomy and Childan is encountered in order to set implicit information for the reader to acquire. The use of direct speech when Mr Tagomi is speaking is intended to start shaping the characters traits and personality, especially his arbitrary use of broken English. When Tagomi says “I can wait no furthermore”, he clearly intends to say, “I can’t wait anymore”.

Carrying out my internship at A Fresh Start seems to be one of the best academic and career moves I could have made at this point in my life. Now, as I come towards the end of the internship period, it is my belief that I have gained far much more than I would have thought I would on the first day of the internship. The internship site provided an excellent opportunity for hands-on training, and it has given me a completely new perspective on my desired future career as a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner. Not only have I gained invaluable insight into the day to day work of a neonatal nurse, I have as well become aware of all the support functions that enable such nurses to be effective at their jobs.
Physically demanding activities such as running cause both muscle development and strain. They also result in dynamic contractions which are defined as the shift in joint angles caused by the force from muscles (Hussain, et al., 2017). One of the most common methods utilized to study this phenomenon is electromyography (EMG). Despite the familiarity of EMG in myology, there is not enough literature to support the reliability and accuracy of this measure (Technology Review, 1999).
Measurement Systems Analysis (MSA) is one of the most important processes in contexts where measurements are to be done using technology-based devices or equipment. Generally, MSA is regarded as a critical element of the six-sigma methodology that is highly applicable in quality management systems (Sperl, Ptacek, & Trewn, 2013). By definition, the term MSA refers to a special procedure aimed at the determination of the components of variations in a measurement process (Sperl, Ptacek, & Trewn, 2013). Thus, the Measurement Systems Analysis is regarded as a quality control process for measuring devices and equipment.
Management has greatly evolved over time. Formerly, in the 19th century, it solely focused on productivity and efficiency through strict “top-down” control over people. Currently, the practice revolves around leadership and innovation. These are the evolutionary changes Walter Kiechel explores in his article “The Management Century.” In the course of evaluating these changes, Kiechel mentions some management ideas such as spreading awareness on management, humanity production, and shifting towards innovation which I believe will be helpful in the future.
Colorblind casting is one of the techniques that have been used in production of plays and drama to disregard the possible cultural, tribal and racial prejudice in modern theatre. Colorblind casting is described as a situation where characters of a film are cast without any regard to some of their attributes such as race, gender and age (Hopkins, 2018). Most of these cases are usually experienced when producers come up with new ideas. The producers take the initiative of creating characters with a personality but without any physical characteristics. In some special cases, it may lead to black people playing roles meant for white people or women playing roles that were originally meant for men. The use of this technique ensures the integration of various cultures and sexual orientations in drama to avoid instances of discrimination.
Introduction Decision making is a vital component in an organization and on a personal level. Each day, people deal with both demanding and small decisions. Scholars have put forward many theories which are meant to help individuals make best decision out of many options. Nonetheless, some factors still limit a person’s ability to make a decision Therefore, issues such as one’s age, gender, and personality, on the one hand, and organization’s reward system and rules and regulations, on the other, need careful consideration before making a decision.
Introduction The article talks about the treatment of Bipolar Disorder (BD) treated using a number of medications chief of which is Lurasidone. Lurasidone is administered to patients suffering from BD and other conditions such as Major Depressive Disorder. Fornaro et al. provide that treatment of this disorder is risky as the condition is characterized by both mania and depression. These two conditions further, require careful consideration in terms of administering medication as treating one with certain medicines may cause an adverse reaction on the other (2017). The modality used is by way of evidence-based treatment which is focused on finding the right diagnosis of the myriad of conditions closely related, a treatment which may include administration of medication and eventual follow up.
