Health care providers are knowledgeable and skilled in what each person does. The existing problem at care facilities is a continuation of residents’ complaints about the same recurring misplaced laundry. The first thing, then is to identify that there is a growing need to fix this problem. Once there is realization that it is a problem is when it can be placed higher on the to- do list for the administrators to work with all his involved departments to agree on what will likely work and to decide on where or how to begin fixing the problem. Project RSQIC will be the first implemented plan to be practiced in care communities at first. If it turns out all components of this project shows efficiency and outstanding improvement, it can also be adopted by other care facilities too. Initially, laundry service issues were not seen as a complex issue. Throughout time, with so much more research has convinced the researcher otherwise. Therefore, whichever solutions are keeping the problem under controlled should be transparent to other care communities to adopt. According to the Agency for Healthcare Research (2015), the six domains of health care are safe, effective, patient-centered, timely, efficient and equitable. Similarly, a solution that will work also has to be timely and effective. The established modified laundry system will be monitored to identify any additional modifications administrators will need to come up with to improve the laundering process. As of now, it is to the best interests of the organization to become more motivated to make time to control the number of incidences of misplaced or lost clothing. Without enough efforts from all the employees involved in the laundering process, one of the worst faced scenarios will happen: Time of thinking for a way to retrieve back the missing clothing. If the problem had been taken care of in the first place, there was never going to be a demand for how to find the misplaced clothing. ii List of Tables Table 1: Comparison of all types of housing for

  • Objection (Tango) - Shakira – Notes 
    Objection (Tango) - Shakira – Notes Activity type: vocabulary, gap fill, listening for specific words, rhyming words. Time: 40 mins. Note: Objection is taken from Shakira’s 2001 album “Laundry Service”. Its rhythm is similar to the Uruguayan-Argentinian tango La Cumparsita, a musical piece written by Uruguayan musician Gerardo Matos Rodríguez in 1919. La Cumparsita is one of the most famous and recognizable tango songs of all time; the Argentinean team marched to it in the Olympic Games of Sydney 2000. Pre-listening activities: 1) Give each student a copy of the worksheet. Students can work in pairs or small groups to complete Exercise 1) – the first to complete the exercise is the winner. Vocabulary note: In the song Shakira erroneously sings silicon /’sɪlɪkən/ (a chemical element), although she means silicone /’sɪlɪkəʊn/, in this context meaning breast implants! That part of the music video uses subtitles – correctly. Key: A - 2; B - 3; C - 5; D - 1; E - 6; F - 4. 2) Students do Exercise 2). Note: not all the words are direct rhymes. Key: irresistible – fixable name – care exception – attention mother - bother While-listening activities: 3) Play the first part of the song (as far as “But you don't even bother” - 59 seconds into the original recording) – students check, correct and complete the exercise. 4) Students do Exercise 3). Play the next part of the song (as far as “I’ve got to get away” - after 1’ 11” on the original recording) – students check, correct and complete the exercise. 5) Students do Exercise 4). Play the next part of the song, (as far as “Away from here” - at 2’ 21” on the original recording) – students check, correct and complete the exercise, and follow the lyrics.

  • The Michael Jackson of Two Or Three Noses Ago and the Michael Jackson of Today – Multiple Personalities Or Conceptual Metonymy?
    Jezikoslovlje 8.1 (2007): 27-44 ɱ 27 UDC 811.111'373.612.2'373.231 Original scientific paper Received on 06.11. 2007. Accepted for publication 28.11. 2007. Sanja Berberoviü Faculty of Philosophy University of Tuzla The Michael Jackson of two or three noses ago and the Michael Jackson of today – multiple personalities or conceptual metonymy? The paper deals with the construction of the figurative meaning of personal names in expressions of the type the X of Y, in which X is a personal name designating humans and Y designates a temporal period. Such expressions, used in connection with the original bearer of the name, are considered to be instances of partitive re- strictive modification. Applying the findings of Barcelona (2003, 2004) and Brdar and Brdar-Szabó (2007) concerning the figurative meaning of personal names, the paper illustrates that the ENTITY FOR ACTIVE ZONE metonymy is an essential tool in explaining how the figurative meaning of personal names arises in expressions of this type. As a result of partitive restrictive modification, the original bearer of the personal name is figuratively split into distinct individuals due to the ENTITY FOR ACTIVE ZONE metonymy. Key words: personal names, figurative meaning, partitive restrictive modifica- tion, the ENTITY FOR ACTIVE ZONE metonymy 1. Introduction Proper names have attracted the attention of linguists and philosophers alike for centuries. There are numerous linguistic and philosophical insights into proper names, each focusing on different aspects. Some of these theories have had wide application and have been of great importance, while others are merely unsuc- cessful attempts to construct a valid theory of proper nouns.
