born with imagination, work hard to build a<br />
knowledge toolbox, and are able to<br />
develop the attitude that problems can be<br />
solved. But our business structures must<br />
build unrestrictive habitats that set the<br />
stage for creativity, provide the resources<br />
to get things done and, lastly, support a<br />
culture that sees small failures as a source<br />
of data and rewards the courage to try<br />
solutions that diverge from conventional<br />

ETHICS<br />
Managing Ethics brings managers and<br />
supervisors into the same situations from<br />
our introductory video, Workplace Ethics,<br />
and supplements their ethics training with<br />
ethical leadership skills necessary for<br />
maintaining an ethical workplace.<br />
The benefits of working in an ethical<br />
<strong>com</strong>pany are well known. This managing<br />
ethics training video will help your<br />
managers and supervisors develop an<br />
ethical leadership perspective in order to<br />
sustain a culture of integrity among all<br />
employees.<br />
Managing Ethics replays the scenarios<br />
portrayed in its <strong>com</strong>panion training video,<br />
Workplace Ethics, but this time from the<br />
leader's point of view, illustrating essential<br />
management skills.<br />
Your managers and supervisors will learn<br />
how to share core values in ways that<br />
employees can personally understand, live<br />
the values themselves every day, and take<br />
appropriate action—by acknowledging<br />
positive behavior or promptly correcting<br />
ethical lapses.<br />
Ethics shouldn't be taken for granted.<br />
Without constant attention, ethical<br />
standards can be weakened by small<br />
decisions that add up. This ethics training<br />
DVD gives your managers the tools they<br />
need to uphold standards and protect the<br />
integrity of your organization.<br />

PERFORMANCE<br />
JATHILAN: JATHILAN: TRANCE TRANCE AND<br />
AND<br />
POSSESSION POSSESSION IN IN JAVA<br />
JAVA<br />
By Robert Lemelson<br />
Practiced in Java for centuries, Jathilan is<br />
a folk dance that uses the power of music<br />
and dance to channel powerful and<br />
sometimes terrifying forces. Led by a<br />
spiritual guide and a whip-bearing<br />
ringleader, a group of dancers ride woven<br />
horses in rhythmic unison until they are<br />
entered by spirits. Once possessed they<br />
engage in a range of self-mortification<br />
behaviors until safely emerging from their<br />
altered state, left with no memory of the<br />
event and no lingering ill effects.<br />
The film <strong>com</strong>bines footage of a number of<br />
Jathilan performances with interviews with<br />
dancers, spiritual leaders, anthropologists,<br />
and enthusiasts. This extraordinary<br />
practice be<strong>com</strong>es more than just<br />
spectacle as Jathilan is contextualized<br />
within broader processes of Indonesian<br />
historical, political and social change and<br />
the viewer is provided a window into the<br />
subjective experiences of those who<br />
participate. Multiple interpretations of<br />
Jathilan's significance ultimately emerge,<br />
from an empirical proof of spiritual<br />
presence, to a strategy of <strong>com</strong>munity<br />
building, to a resistant expression of folk<br />
identity.<br />

LIFESPAN<br />
This video reviews general understanding<br />
of basic concepts of human growth and<br />
development by looking at how physical,<br />
cognitive, and psychomotor development<br />
influences pharmacotherapeutics. The<br />
lecture goes on matching the pregnancy<br />
categories with their definitions and<br />
outlines the importance of teaching the<br />
breastfeeding mother about prescription<br />
and OTC drug use, as well as the use of<br />
herbal products. Students learn<br />
physiological and biochemical changes<br />
that occur in the older adult, and how<br />
these affect pharmacotherapy; the nursing<br />
and pharmacologic implications<br />
associated with each of the following<br />
developmental age groups: prenatal<br />
period, infancy, toddlerhood, preschoolers,<br />
school-age children, adolescence, young<br />
adults, middle-age adults, and older<br />
adults.<br />

SCHEDULES<br />
SCHEDULES<br />
This video covers the basis for placing<br />
drugs into therapeutic and<br />
pharmacological classes and the<br />
prototype approach to drug classification.<br />
It describes drug's mechanism of action,<br />
distinguishes between a drug's chemical<br />
name, generic name, and trade name, and<br />
explains why generic drug names are<br />
preferred to other trade name drugs.<br />
Students learn why drugs are sometimes<br />
placed on a restrictive list and the<br />
controversy surrounding this issue and<br />
"controlled substance" category. The video<br />
lecture explores the U.S. Controlled<br />
Substance Act of 1970 and the role of the<br />
U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency in<br />
controlling drug abuse and misuse and the<br />
drug schedules and examples of drugs at<br />
each level together with explanations on<br />
how drugs are scheduled according to<br />
Parts III and IV of the Canadian Food and<br />
Drugs Act and the Narcotic Control Act.<br />

SYSTEM<br />
This lecture reviews the fundamental<br />
divisions of the nervous system, primary<br />
functions, actions of the sympathetic and<br />
parasympathetic nervous systems. It<br />
explains the process of synaptic<br />
transmission and the neurotransmitters<br />
important to the autonomic nervous<br />
system and the types of responses that<br />
occur when a drug activates Alpha-1 (α1),<br />
Alpha-2 (α2), Beta-1 (β1), or Beta-2<br />
(β2)–adrenergic receptors. The video<br />
lecture describes the nurse's role in the<br />
pharmacological management of patients<br />
receiving medications affecting the<br />
autonomic nervous system. For each of<br />
the drug classes listed in Drugs At A<br />
Glance, student should be able to explain<br />
the mechanism of drug action, primary<br />
actions, and important adverse effects and<br />
the nursing process to care for patients<br />
receiving parasympathomimetics,<br />
anticholinergics, sympathomimetics, and<br />
adrenergic-blockers.<br />
