Basic steps of the nursing process (assessment, plan of care, and implementation) are discussed in the article and demonstrated in the clinical case study which is appended. Two other steps in the nursing process, nursing diagnosis and evaluation, are also briefly referred to in the sample case but are not seen as major parts of the nursing function in relation to ADHD. O'Connell's article provides a lucid overview of this only partially understood disorder (including a reprint of the DSM IV diagnostic criteria) in conjunction with the discussion of the nurse's role. It is a valuable practical guide to the subject and, incidentally, produces a working description of some..."

Abstract
The paper explains that Connell's history provides more details on the humanity of the white and Indian races (which existed between both Custer and Sitting Bull's Sioux victors at the Battle of Little Big Horn) than Robe. The paper contends that the manners of battle detail, characterization and narrative scope are both elements that Robe adheres to in the characterization of Custer, but he fails to generate a realistic sense of proportion and detail in the military aspects of the battle.
From the Paper
"The aim of this study will be to examine the nature of western expansionist military history in the novel "Son of the Morning Star: Custer and the Little Big Horn" by Evan S. Connell, alongside the film adaptation of the book entitled similarly "Son of the Morning Star," directed by Mike Robe. The lesser value of the film makes demarcations of accuracy in battle details, characterizations, and narrative from Connell's historical analysis of Custer, which provide some comparisons in relation to the contrasts within these two mediums. The film making style of Rob that depicts Custer's final battle at Little Big Horn relate little of the larger cavalry battles that are depicted within Connell's sweeping narrative of horse fighting and the intensive savagery of war."

Abstract
The author believes that this article by K. L. O'Connell is a valuable practical guide to the assessment and treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The paper reviews O'Connell's working description of some aspects of the nursing process. This paper states that the nurse's primary role emerges at the assessment stage and that the second important nursing role, especially for school nurses, is in the treatment of ADHD.
From the Paper
"Behavioral interventions, controlled environments and individual and family counseling also are described as complementary aspects of treatment. In the sample case O'Connell describes a subject whose symptoms were first identified by a pediatric nurse and whose school performance and behavior were vastly improved by two years of Ritalin therapy and environment management (e.g., seating selection and isolated settings for academic testing)."

Abstract
This paper briefly discusses how in the story "The Most Dangerous Game", the author describes an adventurous plot in which two highly skilled hunters have been pitted against each other in what can best be described as a "life or death" competition. The paper looks at how the author's use of irony helps to give an unexpected twist to what may be seen from the outset as a rather common phenomenon: hunting for sport.
From the Paper
"There are very few characters in this story. Even then, Connell only chooses to elaborate on just two of these on a deeper level. Sanger Rainsford is the story's protagonist. Apart from his abundant knowledge of hunting, Rainsford is no different from any other ordinary man. The expectation is that his logical skills and moral values would be at the same level as those of a normal human being. It is implied then, that he would never engage in any behaviors which are characteristic of the animals he hunts. Sanger Rainsford shows the reader through his actions that he is a realistic and rational man secure in the certainty of the world around him. He shows us his moral nature through his arguments with General Zaroff. As General Zaroff explains his new pastime of hunting men instead of animals for sport, Sanger Rainsford contradicts the general and telling him that he "speaks of murder". "

Abstract
The paper looks at the school's mission that is best summarized through two specific objectives. Firstly, the school aims to prepare high school students to college education through the "principles of Catholic faith." Secondly, it also provides holistic personal development, basing this development through "productive Christian living."
From the Paper
"Of course, the culture and behavior of the high school stated above are mainly ideal scenarios, conditions that the high school would want to achieve through quality education and faithful practice and belief in Catholicism. In general, O'Connell Consolidated has a pervasive culture, one that truly represents its members, particularly its students. Because of the strong Catholic values and principles inculcated in each Galveston O'Connell Consolidated student, there is strong adherence to strictly attaining 'proper behavior' not only in school, but in the community and their families as well."

Abstract
"The Most Dangerous Game", published in 1924, is a tale of adventure and suspense with a theme that quickly grew into a classic storyline of books and films that followed its publication. " This paper examines the themes of evil and fear in the story.
From the Paper
"The Most Dangerous Game, published in 1924, is a tale of adventure and suspense with a theme that quickly grew into a classic storyline of books and films that followed its publication (The Most Dangerous Game intro). A general analysis would explain that this classic motif is "about the hunter and the hunted" (The Most Dangerous Game By Richard Connell), but this exploration is too surface. Connell writes, "I think evil is a tangible thing--with wave lengths just as light and sound have." It is this tangible, let us call it "landscape," that really presents itself as the theme of the story. However, the landscape of The Most Dangerous Game is not one of evil per se but of fear. This will be explored in the following pages. "

Abstract
This paper examines to what extent the mainland Great British political parties were in agreement over Irish political, religious and economic problems in the period 1798-1893. It explains how towards the end of the period, the two parties began to disagree more on Irish issues, as William Gladstone looked to "pacify Ireland" with his conciliatory approach.
From the Paper
"Throughout the period from Wolf Tone's rebellion to the second reform act, the two mainland British political parties attempted to solve the problems of Ireland with a variety of policies. Although there are several areas of policy (such as Home Rule) were the parties disagreed, on other occasions they were singing from similar hymn-sheets. It is therefore less than straightforward to discern to what extent the mainland political parties were in absolute agreement in this period."
