AN EXPLORATORY STUDY OF THE MICRO SOCIAL INTERACTIVE DYNAMICS OF DOCTOR-PATIENT RELATIONSHP: A CASE OF CHIKUNI MISSION HOSPITAL IN MONZE.

DEDICATIONS

When one decides to undertake university education they must be prepared to sacrifice so much of their time, energies and resources in order to focus on the demands of school-life. It is particularly difficult if one has a family of their own since it implies a long absence from them. This report is therefore dedicated to my wife (Christabel), my son (Brian Nasilele), and my two daughters (Isabel Lerato Nasilele and Faith Tumelo Nasilele). In particular the report is dedicated to my youngest daughter- Isabel Lerato Nasilele- who was born at the time when I started my degree programme at the University of Zambia. It meant that I had to miss the opportunity of witnessing her grow and being there to see her take the first stride. To my family, Iam greatly indebted and I thank them a million times for the sacrifice they made towards my university education.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

It is always a mammoth task to recall and thank every person for their contributions. The same applies in this situation as many people assisted in one way or the other in the writing of both the proposal and finally the report. It is not by design that if any omission of these people is noticed for without their contribution this piece of work would

    In this experiment I will find the base heart rate of each water flea. The base heart rate is the control in my experiment. The variables in the experiment are alcohol and caffeine. After finding the control of the first flea I will surround it with alcohol. The second flea will go through the same process as the first flea did, except the variable will be caffeine. The purpose of these two experiments is to see how surrounding one water flea with alcohol and another with caffeine affects each water flea’s heart rate. I believe the Daphnia Magnus (two different water fleas) will go through a similar experience and similar side effects of having alcohol and caffeine in their bodies as humans do. In this experiment a drop of 2%, 4%, and 6% of alcohol will be administered to the first Daphnia Magna. The second Daphnia Magna will have a drop of 1%, 1.5%, and 2% of caffeine administered.…

    I am comparing Bernini’s David of the Baroque era and Michelangelo’s David from the Italian Renaissance. Michelangelo was considered the greatest living artist in his lifetime, and ever since then he has been held to be one of the greatest artists of all time. He was an Italian sculptor, painter, architect, poet, and engineer of the High Renaissance. Michelangelo’s David was a masterpiece sculpture, created between 1501 – 1504 that is a marble statue, of a standing male nude. The 17 foot statue was placed in Galleria dell’Accademia, Florence. The statue represents a Biblical hero named David, after he made his decision to fight Goliath but before the battle has actually taken place. A moment between conscious choice and action. Gian Lorenzo Bernini was an Italian artist and a prominent architect who worked principally in Rome. He was the leading sculptor of his age, credited with creating the Baroque style of sculpture. Bernini’s David is a life-size marble sculpture, created between 1623-24, located in Galleria Borghese, Rome. This statue represents the biblical David, about to throw a stone at Goliath, which will allow David to behead him. The biggest difference in the two sculptures is the moment represented. Michelangelo chose the moment before the fight while Bernini chose the split second when David is launching the stone from his sling. Bernini’s body is violently twisting bursting with energy while Michelangelo had stored in his figure. Bernini has literally created an event frozen in time during the fight and Michelangelo’s was before the fight. The statues are similar because they both were innovative with respect of the ancient tradition that created works that were perfectly balanced, but not as perfectly evocative. The statues represent the same character, the David who beats Goliath, and they both embody the ideal of male form in a natural setting rather than posed.…

    To every good thing there is in life, there is a bad. In this paper, you will see how love is stronger than hate, but hate is forever and love is just for a short amount of time. In the play, hate is opposite of love, and this is shown from start to finish. Unfortunately our play does not start in favor of love, we see a fight between the rival families and an undeniable sense of hatred. We do however see an act of love quite soon after this event when the prince enters the stage to stop the feud. This is an act of love mainly because he stops the fight in an attempt to protect the people that he reigns over.…

    The purpose of this research is to identify multicultural counseling and ethical issues for school counselors. Multicultural counseling is basd on the diversity of a relationship between a counselor and a client. One of the most important differences for multicultural counseling is how to address the problem through the cultue. Counselors are acknowledging culture into their theory and practice when dealing with school-age students. Although, the progress is increasing there still remains an ethical and multicultural delimma because school counselors may comibine their personal belief and biases assumptions with their counseling responsibilities. However, my research will aim to explore and identify where the problem begins and how to create a different avenue for school counselors.…

    Nearly half (47%) of all illegal border crossings into the U.S. occur along the Arizona border with Mexico. As the state with the most illegal crossings t the United States/Mexico border, its remote and dangerous deserts are the entry point for thousands of Mexicans and Central Americans(Cooper). The non-native citizen population has grown rapidly in this area. Arizona had an estimated 460,000 illegal immigrants in April 2010, a figure that had increased fivefold since 1990.(Cooper). Illegal immigration, like most other issues has an upside and a downside. On the upside, there is a steady workforce for the labor industry (agriculture, construction, etc.), and the service industry (restaurants). The agricultural industry in Arizona is comprised of 59% immigrants, the construction industry is made up of 27% workers not native to the United States, and the service industry is populated by 22% foreign born employees. On the downside, illegal immigration brings its share of problems including crime, poverty, uncirculated funds (pay not reintroduced into the economy in which it was originated), and an overburden on social services. It is the latter that sparked the now controversial Senate Bill 1070 that effectively closes the border to all but the few lucky enough to obtain legal status.…

    Prohibition was merely an experiment that Prohibitionist had high hopes for, the idea was now that society, no longer had alcohol beverages to spend their money on, their finances would go to other things like dairy products, modern appliances, life Insurance, savings, and education. This noble idea went all but ignored by the American citizen; creating a Golden Age that was filled with illegal activity. There was gambling, switch of additive narcotics, and lots of alcohol. As Carla Due mentioned, a farmer who lived in the United States during the Prohibition era, “It made it more exciting to do something you weren’t supposed to do.” (Meredith)In the end, the 18th Amendment only created a new type of night life that was taken full advantage of by some Italian immigrants. The American-Italian mafia was created by Italian immigrants that once belonged to the Sicilian Mafiosi. It wasn’t until the mid-19th century that Mafiosi member began to escape from Sicily, Italy. The American-Italian mafia was a well-organized operation that became famous for their involvement in illegal manufacture and trade of alcoholic beverages during the Prohibition era in the 1920s.…

    In academic publishing, a paper is an academic work that is usually published in an academic journal. It contains original research results or reviews existing results. Such a paper, also called an article, will only be considered valid if it undergoes a process of peer review by one or more referees (who are academics in the same field) who check that the content of the paper is suitable for publication in the journal. A paper may undergo a series of reviews, revisions and re-submissions before finally being accepted or rejected for publication. This process typically takes several months. Next there is often a delay of many months (or in some subjects, over a year) before an accepted manuscript appears. This is particularly true for the most popular journals where the number of accepted articles often outnumbers the space for printing. Due to this, many academics self-archive a 'pre-print' copy of their paper for free download from their personal or institutional website.…

    delayed much longer coming to Zambia than was the case. So Zambia owes a great deal from the early missionaries for its educational system. The mis- sionaries laid the foundation on which Zambia continued to build. Discuss- ing educational development in Zambia without mentioning the missionar- ies is incomplete. However, the role of missionaries in development of Zambia is not the scope of this paper; but it could well be a subject for an- other paper. For now the subject is “Educational System in Zambia: How it developed since Independence in 1964.” Discussion of this subject will be confined to primary and secondary educa- tion from 1964 to 1976. 1976 marked the end of the Second National De- velopment Plan (SNDP) in a series of four plans. [Emergency, Transitional, First and Second National Development Plans.] At independence there were already two education systems running parallel on racial lines. There was the European education and African education. The former included Asians and Coloured. The European schools were well funded, provided with good learning facilities, and sufficiently staffed with qualified teachers. African schools, on the other hand were pathetic- ally neglected in many respects. They were poorly funded, staffed with ill qualified teachers, under staffed and with poor learning facilities. The result was Africans education lagged behind in development. It was the respons- ibility of the new African government to integrate the two systems of edu- cation for effective delivery to Africans. In 75 years of colonial administration, Northern…
