In addition, mammals share the same nervous system, neurochemicals, perceptions, and emotions, all of which are in integration into the experience of pain, says Marc Bekoff, evolutionary biologist and author.
Whether mammals feel pain like we do is unknown, Bekoff says—but that doesn’t mean they don’t experience it. (Read how your dog knows exactly what you’re saying.)
There are some clues as to how animals—especially pets—communicate physical suffering.
For instance, Dorothy Brown’s dog Foster has phantom limb pain in a leg that was amputate after being hit by a car.
“He will be fast asleep and jump up and cry and look at where his leg in use to be,” says Brown,
who teaches surgery at the University of Pennsylvania’s Veterinary Hospital,
where Foster was brought in for treatment. Human amputees also experience this phenomenon.

essay in which you:
More so, identify four legal issues in this case.
Nevertheless, identify the case that governs each issue.
Also, discuss the rule of law provided by that case.
Consequently, apply the rule of law to each issue. Are the officer’s actions permitted under law? Why or why not?
ALSO, discuss the outcome of the defense motions Will this evidence be excluded? Why or why not?
More Details:
Although there is increasing academic recognition of corporations as criminogenic, the criminal legal system has demonstrated difficulties in conceptualising corporate culpability.
Additionally, the current Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse provides ample evidence of why organisations can and should be criminalised for systemic failures.
More so, i demonstrate that the emphasis upon individualistic subjective culpability
by the criminal legal system does not adequately encapsulate the institutional failings detailed before the Royal Commission.
Whilst mandatory reporting offences are important, these offences do not adequately respond to the kinds of organisational failings identified by the Royal Commission.
I argue in favour of developing a new institutional offence constructed upon realist
concepts of negligence and/or corporate culture that recognises that organisations
are capable of wrongdoing and sufficiently blameworthy to justify the imposition of criminal sanctions.
Lastly, I conclude by arguing that the expressive role of criminal law justifies and requires the criminalisation of this kind of organisational wrongdoing.

Evidence of any ethical or legal issues that arose in the study
Please review the ethics assignment.
When completing this assignment think like a nurse “researcher” not as a nurse at the bedside.
You will be analyzing the DeGrazia et al., (2015) article (posted on Blackboard), for evidence of any ethical or legal issues that arose in the study and how the researchers dealt with the issues.
Hint: think of the ethical implications not only the physical implications
More Details:
Background: Research ethics involve requirements on daily work, the protection of dignity of subjects and the publication of the information in the research.
However, when nurses participate in research they have to cope with three value systems; society;
nursing and science which may be in conflict with the values of subjects, communities, and societies and create tensions and dilemmas in nursing.
Method and material: Using the Medline and the Nursing Cinahl data base, the most important ethical issues which appear in bibliography, will be addressed.
After a short description of the nature of nursing, and the advocacy role of nurses,
the writer will attempt to highlight the possible conflicts that nurses have to deal with,
when undertaking or participating in research.
Results: The major ethical issues in conducting research are:
a) Informed consent,
b) Beneficence- Do not harm c) Respect for anonymity and confidentiality
d) Respect for privacy. However, both the nature of nursing which focuses on caring,
preventing harm and protecting dignity and the advocates role of nurses which calls for
defending the rights of subjects, are sometimes incongruent with the ethics in research.

More Details:
Also, some notable exceptions to reliance on experience exist, however. In the middle of the nineteenth century,
Florence Nightingale pioneered the application of epidemiological and statistical methods to the study of hospital deaths,
and her discoveries of a plausible causal relationship between processes of care
and outcomes led to challenges to thoughts about mechanisms of disease prevalent
at the time, changes in clinical practice, and improvements in mortality rates.
Lastly, in the early twentieth century, Ernest Amory Codman, a Boston surgeon,
argued strongly for the formal study of surgical outcomes in an effort to understand which surgeons,
hospitals, and surgical procedures produced good versus bad outcomes (Neuhauser, 2002).

Modular construction to increase the productivity and substantiality
Is it workable and suitable to use modular construction to increase the productivity and substantiality of Hong Kong buildings?
More Details:
Buildings carry a considerable burden of high electricity consumption and carbon emissions.
Among the various end uses of electricity, buildings account for around 90% of electricity consumption in Hong Kong which generates over 60% of the city’s total carbon emissions.
Throughout the years, we have devoted considerable effort towards adopting innovative, sustainable
and smart building designs to drive the efficient utilisation of energy, material and land resources.
Passive design approaches harness building architecture to provide energy saving benefits and enhance thermal comfort.
Appropriate measures in suitable planning, disposition, orientation, building form and material selection are adopted to optimise the interaction between a building and its local microclimate.
The aspects taken into consideration include:
As opposed to passive design, active design approaches utilise electrical and mechanical systems to create and sustain comfortable conditions.
Also, these installations contribute to improving building energy efficiency, water conservation and enhance indoor air quality.
The aspects taken into consideration include:
The selection and prioritisation of sustainable construction methods and materials are also key aspects of sustainable buildings.
During construction, prefabrication and pollution control are commonly in practise.
Additionally, the 3R principles – reduce, reuse and recycle – are widely to effectively manage construction and demolition waste.
More so, when sourcing materials for new building projects, ArchSD is committed to using sustainable materials such as materials and timber from well-managed sources.
Lastly, this project aims to respond to the increasing demand to expand cross-boundary transport infrastructures for future economic growth and regional integration and co-operation.
