Licensed Practical Nurse/Licensed Vocational Nurse (LPN/LVN) I. What They Do. Licensed Practical and Licensed Vocational Nurses (LPNs/LVNs) do not work independently, but are supervised by a Registered Nurse (RN). Physicians and RNs determine courses of patient care; an LPNâs job is to assist patients in carrying out these instructions.
Scorpius is a constellation in the southern hemisphere, located near the centre of the Milky Way galaxy. It was one of the constellations introduced by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy in the 2nd century. Scorpius represents the scorpion that stung and killed Orion, the mythical hunter who boasted that he could kill any wild animal. The Earth sent the scorpion to kill Orion after hearing what he had said.
Scorpius, the Scorpion. Three bright stars form the head of Scorpius, the celestial scorpion, while its tail curves away below it in the southern sky of summer. The brightest star in Scorpius is Antares, which is in the middle of the scorpion's curving body. This brilliant red star is one of the behemoths of our stellar neighborhood. If you placed it at the center of our own solar system, it would swallow Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, and almost reach Jupiter.
