Chapter 13 speaks at length on the topic of Sexual Harassment because it is an obvious example of an abuse of power. Most examples of this are not overtly obvious. Problems today are likely to surface around more subtle forms of sexual harassment--unwanted looks or comments, off-color jokes, sexual artifacts like pinups posted in the workplace, or misinterpretations of where the line between being friendly ends and harassment begins. Assume you are standing with a group of co-workers in the office, all huddled around a cubicle. You are all discussing an episode of your favorite show from the previous night, and some of the content is sexual in nature. Everyone in your group laughs, and in a few more minutes, everyone goes back to work. A co-worker was sitting in her cubicle nearby during this conversation. She was not participating in the group, but overheard the conversation and was offended. She decides to file a formal complaint of sexual harassment. Everyone...what do you think? Should this be considered sexual harassment? add reference .

Changes in culture and technology have resulted in patient populations that are often well informed and educated, even before consulting or considering a healthcare need delivered by a health professional. Fueled by this, health professionals are increasingly involving patients in treatment decisions. However, this often comes with challenges, as illnesses and treatments can become complex. What has your experience been with patient involvement in treatment or healthcare decisions? In this Discussion, you will share your experiences and consider the impact of patient involvement (or lack of involvement). You will also consider the use of a patient decision aid to inform best practices for patient care and healthcare decision making. To Prepare: Review the Resources and reflect on a time when you experienced a patient being brought into (or not being brought into) a decision regarding their treatment plan. Review the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute’s Decision Aids Inventory at https://decisionaid.ohri.ca/. Choose “For Specific Conditions,” then Browse an alphabetical listing of decision aids by health topic. NOTE: To ensure compliance with HIPAA rules, please DO NOT use the patient’s real name or any information that might identify the patient or organization/practice.

Cesar’s Last Fast movie. .In 1988, Cesar Chavez embarked on what would be his last act of protest in his remarkable life. Driven in part to pay penance for feeling he had not done enough, Chavez began his "Fast for Life," a 36-day water-only hunger strike, to draw attention to the horrific effects of unfettered pesticide use on farm workers, their families, and their communities. Using never-before-seen footage of Chavez during his fast and testimony from those closest to him, directors Richard Ray Perez and Lorena Parlee weave together the larger story of Chavez's life, vision, and legacy. A deeply religious man, Chavez's moral clarity in organizing and standing with farmworkers at risk of his own life humbled his family, friends, and the world. Please write a reflection paper about the movie 2 pages long. Watch the movie and then write. I need it tomorrow as it is the deadline. Thanks .

Cellular reproduction in Eukaryotes involves either mitosis or, in the case of sex cells, meiosis. Mitosis involves the reproduction of a cell into two identical daughter cells. Meiosis, however, is a reduction division where a parental diploid cell produces four haploid gametes. Upon fusion, two haploid gametes (in humans the sperm and the egg) will result in one diploid zygote. In this activity you will track chromosomes through meiosis using colored beads. .

Cellular Communication: Autocrine, Paracrine or Endocrine? As you are learning, your body and the bodies of all organisms are highly complex, comprised of many different types of cells, each with a vital function that is required for the body’s survival. There are mechanisms that act like lines of communication, allowing different cells to communicate. Messenger molecules serve to coordinate signals between cells and between organs and are described as having autocrine (internal), paracrine (local) or endocrine (system-wide) functions. Without these messenger molecules, how else does your liver know when to produce important proteins for homeostasis? How does your heart know when to beat faster and then slow down? How do your lungs know when to breathe faster? The communications between your brain and organs, and between the different organs must be tightly regulated and controlled. For this discussion board, select two types of messengers that our body uses to communicate between organs or between different cell types. Describe the messengers. Discuss where the messengers are made and what is their function. Are the messengers part of an autocrine, paracrine or endocrine pathway? What would happen if the messengers you have selected were inactive? .
