    Sock Monkey History

    Sock Monkey History

    Their origins are unknown but some individuals claim that they were first created as early as 1919. These first sock monkeys are known as imitation stuffed animals. We know that they started to appear in the late Victorian era and it has been suggested that they were inspired by stories from Rudyard Kipling’s writings for example, The Jungle Book and Just so Stories. Today’s red lipped sock monkeys originated from Rockford Illinois. As mentioned before, the first automatic knitting machine was created in 1870 by John Nelson. Nevertheless, it was his son Franklin that improved his invention and later made it unlike any other sock on the market. Ten years after his father’s discovery, Franklin was able to create a sock without seams in the heel. The seamless sock became so popular, many companies started to imitate his idea. In 1932, advertising executive Howard Monk came up with idea to make the heels of the brown sock red. Nelson called the sock de-tec-tip. It is also known by many other names such as the “red heeled sock” or “Rockford’s.” The earliest possible appearance of the iconic red heeled sock monkey is 1932 but, the earliest claim of red heeled of a modern sock monkey dates back to 1949. The company learned of the red heeled sock monkeys in 1951 and four years later received the patent. When they contracted the patent, they started to include a pattern for sock monkeys on every pair of socks that they sold (Robinson…

    Little Seamstress

    Butterflies in some cultures symbolize change, a “new self;” while butterflies in Chinese culture symbolize “new love.” A character who is a protagonist will change the most out of any character in a book. Throughout the book, Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress, we follow the narrator and his best friend, Luo, through their adventures of thievery and dangerous jobs. But, neither of them are the protagonist. The Little Seamstress is the protagonist, because like a butterfly, she metamorphosed into a new person and changed the most out of the three main characters in the book.…

    The Limerick Gloves

    The Limerick Gloves by Maria Edgesworth is a short story that quite accurately explains the effects of the conflicting relationships English had with the Irish. The tensions presented by political conflict between the Roman Catholics of Ireland and the English Protestants also had effects on the personal relationships between these people. We see these tensions had a great effect on relationships between people of different backgrounds, as demonstrated by the negative connotation in which Mr. Hill assumes of Mr. O’Neill. However, through this story we see how it can take so much as to completely humiliate a person and prove them wrong may be what it takes in order for them to become accepting of the fact that their wrongful…

    Nursing

    The AACN Preferred Vision of the Professoriate in Baccalaureate and Graduate Nursing Programs (2008) states that “courses in the nursing program will be taught by faculty with graduate-level academic preparation and advanced expertise in the areas of content they teach.” There is national recognition, however, of the growing shortage of nursing educators to fill faculty and other educator roles within the healthcare delivery system. Master’s programs that prepare graduates for nurse educator roles are designed to meet these needs. Nurses with a master’s degree may teach patients and their families and/or student nurses, staff nurses, and a variety of direct-care providers. As outlined in Essential IX, all master’s-prepared nurses will develop competence in applying teaching/learning principles in work with patients and/or students across the continuum of care in a variety of settings. However, as recommended in the Carnegie Foundation report (2009), Educating Nurses: A Call for Radical Transformation, those individuals who choose a nurse educator role, as do all master’s graduates, require preparation across all nine Essential areas, including graduate-level clinical practice content and experiences in an area of nursing practice.…

    nursing

    To begin with upstream, it is defined as the level in which we use primary prevention methods before the person gets the disease. (Levels of Disease Prevention,2009) Primary prevention aims to prevent the disease from occurring. So primary prevention reduces both the incidence and prevalence of a disease. (Levels of Disease Prevention,2009). In primary prevention, choices are encouraged that will promote the overall health of an individual, population or community. Basic healthcare choices such as immunizations, hygiene, allergen avoidance, and precautions against hazards and accidents are also categorized as a primary prevention. These preventions are instituted initially by the patient when they or their caregivers realize that prevention is a better choice in maintaining health then curing or preventing progression of a disease. As Doody and Doody stated, “The principles of client participation and partnership are central to health promotion” (2012, p. 462). For instances, in case of diabetes, various organisations are raising awareness among people to prevent diabetes at primary level, As described by International Diabetes Federation’s website at http://www.idf.org/prevention. Some organisations like Diabetes Australia are devoting much of their time on awareness of diabetes. According to Diabetes Australia (2010), it is important for diabetes to be understood by the whole community, not just those affected by diabetes. The National Diabetes Action Program (NDAP) is Diabetes Australia’s national type 2 diabetes awareness and prevention initiative. It supports and links with diabetes programs and health promotion initiatives undertaken by Diabetes Australia state and territory diabetes organisations.(Raising awareness,2010). Main aims of this organisation are to aware people of perceived susceptibility to diabetes, helping people to understand that diabetes can be prevented and accessing material which have information, support and services that have diabetes…
