Zoe is a second grader with autism spectrum disorders. Zoe’s father .docx
Zoe is a second grader with autism spectrum disorders. Zoe’s father recently passed away in a tragic car accident. Zoe, her mom, and two older brothers have temporarily relocated from out-of-state and are now living in her grandparents’ house in a small, rural community.
Because the family had been living out-of state, Zoe has never interacted with her grandparents. She has challenges responding to social cues, including her name and in understanding gestures. She also engages in repetitive body movements. She is fond of her set of dolls and likes lining them up. When Zoe is agitated, her mother plays Mozart, which seems to have a calming effect. Zoe also enjoys macaroni and cheese.
Her grandparents do not understand Zoe’s attempts at communicating. Zoe does not respond well to crowded and noisy environments. Zoe’s mom is working outside the home for the first time.
Because of the move, Zoe has transferred to a new school, which does not currently have any students with ASD. Although her mom is generally very involved with Zoe’s education, she is away from the home much of the time due to a long commute for her new job is a neighboring city.
Zoe’s grandparents are eager and willing to help in any way they can.
Imagine you are serving as an ASD consultant at Zoe’s new school. Using the COMPASS model, create a COMPASS Action Plan for Zoe by complete the following tasks:
Identify the personal challenges for Zoe;
Identify the environmental challenges for Zoe;
Identify potential supports; and
Identify and prioritize teaching goals.
In addition, include a 250-500-word rationale that explains how your action plan for Zoe demonstrates collaboration in a respectful, culturally responsive way while promoting understanding, resolving conflicts, and building consensus around her interventions.

CATASTROPHE THEORY… OCCURS WHEN? WHAT DOES THE GRAPH LOOK LIKE
· Arousal: is a blend of physiological and psychological activity in a person and it refers to the intensity dimensions of motivation at a particular moment. It ranges from not aroused, to completely aroused, to highly aroused; this is when individuals are mentally and physically activated.
· Performance increases as arousal increases but when arousal gets too high performance dramatically decreases. This is usually caused by the performer becoming anxious and sometimes making wrong decisions. Catastrophes is caused by a combination of cognitive and somatic anxieties. Cognitive is the internal worries of not performing well while somatic is the physical effects of muscle tension/butterflies and fatigue through playing.
· The graph is an inverted U where the x line is the arousal and the y is the performance. Performance peaks on the top of the inverted U and the catastrophe happens in the fall of the inverted U
HIGH TRAIT ANXIETY ATHLETES… HOW DO THEY PERCEIVE COMPETITION?
· Anxiety: is a negative emotional state in which feelings of nervousness, worry and apprehension are associated with activation or arousal of the body
· Trait Anxiety: is a behavioral disposition to perceive as threatening circumstances that objectively may not be dangerous and to then respond with disproportionate state anxiety.
· Somatic Trait Anxiety: the degree to which one typically perceived heightened physical symptoms (muscle tension)
· Cognitive Trait Anxiety: the degree to which one typically worries or has self doubt
· Concentration Disruption: the degree to which one typically has concentration disruption during competition
People usually with high trait anxiety usually have more state anxiety in highly competitive evaluative situations than do people with lower trait anxiety. Example two athletes are playing basketball and both are physically and statistically the same both have to shoot a final free throw to win the game. Athlete A is more laid back which means his trait anxiety is lower and he doesn't view the final shot as a overly threatening. Athlete B has a high trait anxiety and because of that he perceives the final shot as very threatening. This has an effect on his state anxiety much more than.

Do You Choose to Accept?
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to go out and see Mission: Impossible-Fallout. As I sat back in my red-cushioned seat, accompanied by my brothers, I knew I was in for something special. The film takes place two years after two-thousand fifteens hit movie, Mission: Impossible-Rogue Nation. While I had no clue what to expect, I knew I was going to be in for an incredible ride as soon as the movie began with the intense dialogue between Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and Solomon Lane (Sean Harris). From beginning to end, Mission: Impossible- Fallout delivers crazy action-thriller scenes, inventive special effects, and creative cinematography.
Mission: Impossible-Fallout is based on a story of an American agent who must retrieve nuclear weapons from an enemy terrorist organization with help of his specialized IMF team. The film was consistent the first hour with it involving the audience in the mission of the secret organization and trying to figure out the next move of the evil organization known as the Apostles. However, towards the middle of the movie it was revealed that one of the CIA agents was playing the role of a double spy and was on the side of the Apostles. The plot delivered intense action-packed scenes between the opposing groups that personally had me at the edge of my seat. Whether it was a chase on motorcycles, cars, speedboats, or helicopters, each scene had Ethan Hunt running for his life to save the world. Even though I was only viewing the movie from a comfortable movie theater, Hunt zigzagging through the traffic of France on a motorcycle had my fists clenched and adrenaline pumping. However, that was not even the best thriller of the movie. Ethan Hunt trailing Agent Walker in a helicopter with heavy rounds of artillery being fired at each other through the snowcapped mountains of Kashmir may very well be one of the best action scenes in cinematic history. Mission: Impossible-Fallout can be appreciated and enjoyed by all audiences because of its action-packed scenes that keep everyone extremely engaged in the plot.
Mission: Impossible-Fallout brilliantly illustrates the amazing special effects that serve to create the theme and style of the film. From creating bloody wounds to spectacular backgrounds, special effects are abundant throughout the movie. For instance, as Hunt is jumping off an airplane, the special effects of this scene include wind, rain, thunder, and clouds that make the film visually appealing and almost realistic. The thunder striking him as he is skydiving had my jaw wide open simply because of how incredible the illusion was displayed. In almost every fight between Hunt’s team and the Apostles, multiple types of special effects were utilized. Fighting sequences with Hunt angrily running towards Lane and delivering devastating punches accompanied by “POWs” and “AAAHs” seemed so realistic that it had me feeling queasy in my stomach. The gunfire during these fight.

Violation of Civil Rights Act in Elections
Introduction
Despite the assurance of minority voter’s rights by the constitution and the fourteenth amendment, cases of rights violation with regards to the voting process are still on the rise in the US. Minority groups are often discriminated or blocked from participating in the voting process both in ways that they can discern and through cunning plans that can involve the voting process. Some of the main reasons why minorities’ constitutional rights are violated include racial discrimination by majority races, and to manipulate the outcome of the elections so as to keep minority groups out of the political leadership structure. The fourteenth amendment and the constitution do not sufficiently safeguard the rights of minority groups during elections beca.

IBM's days in inventory is around two weeks and this means that goods in the inventory
as efficnetly distributed and that there is a consitantly good inventory control for the
company.
The company's debts to assets ratio is the same for two years and this means that the
company has less debt than asset. However, it is still a relatively poor ratio because this
might show that there are potential problems for the company to generate sufficient
revenue.
The current ratio of the company has decreased over the year, and this means that the
company has less liquid assets to cover its short term liabilities. Since the ratio is
currently approaching 1, the company might be having liquidation problem.
The profit margin for IBM is very stable and it has been about 12% for two years. The
company is performing the profit-generating ability at an average level and it is having
an average profit margin in the industry.
The receiveables turnover is good for the company while between these two years, there
is a decline. As the company is collecting its accounts receiveables around 10 times per
year, the collection is frequent.
The company has been collecting money from customers on credit sales approximately
once every month, and the company usually has fast credit collection, which means that
the risk for credit sales is relatively low.
Inventory turnover measures how many times a company sells and replaces inventory
during a year and for IBM, the number of times is stable and it is constantly around 25.
This means that the company has an efficient control of its goods in the inventory.

Zheng Hes Inscription This inscription was carved on a stele erec.docx
Zheng He's Inscription
This inscription was carved on a stele erected at a temple to the goddess the Celestial Spouse at Changle in Fujian province in 1431. Message written before his last voyage.
The Imperial Ming Dynasty unifying seas and continents, surpassing the three dynasties even goes beyond the Han and Tang dynasties. The countries beyond the horizon and from the ends of the earth have all become subjects and to the most western of the western or the most northern of the northern countries, however far they may be, the distance and the routes may be calculated. Thus the barbarians from beyond the seas, though their countries are truly distant, "have come to audience bearing precious objects and presents.
The Emperor, approving of their loyalty and sincerity, has ordered us (Zheng) He and others at the head of several tens of thousands of officers and flag-troops to ascend (use) more than one hundred large ships to go and confer presents on them in order to make manifest (make it happen) the transforming power of the (imperial) virtue and to treat distant people with kindness. From the third year of Yongle (1405) till now we have seven times received the commission (official permission) of ambassadors to countries of the western ocean. The barbarian countries which we have visited are: by way of Zhancheng (Champa Cambodia), Zhaowa (Java), Sanfoqi (Palembang- Indonesia) and Xianlo (Siam/Thailand) crossing straight over to Xilanshan (Ceylon- Sri Lanka) in South India, Guli (Calicut) [India], and Kezhi (Cochin India), we have gone to the western regions Hulumosi (Hormuz Between Oman and Iran), Adan (Aden), Mugudushu (Mogadishu- Somalia), altogether more than thirty countries large and small. We have traversed more than one hundred thousand li (distance of 500 meters) of immense water spaces and have beheld in the ocean huge waves like mountains rising sky-high, and we have set eyes on barbarian regions far away hidden in a blue transparency of light vapours, while our sails loftily unfurled like clouds day and night continued their course (rapid like that) of a star, traversing those savage waves as if we were treading a public thoroughfare. Truly this was due to the majesty and the good fortune of the Court and moreover we owe it to the protecting virtue of the divine Celestial Spouse.
The power of the goddess having indeed been manifested in previous times has been abundantly revealed in the present generation. When we arrived in the distant countries we captured alive those of the native kings who were not respectful and exterminated those barbarian robbers who were engaged in piracy, so that consequently the sea route was cleansed and pacified (to make someone or something peaceful) and the natives put their trust in it. All this is due to the favours of the goddess.
We have respectfully received an Imperial commemorative composition (essay/piece of writing) exalting the miraculous favours, which is the highest recompense and.

Violation of Civil Rights Act in Elections
Introduction
Despite the assurance of minority voter’s rights by the constitution and the fourteenth amendment, cases of rights violation with regards to the voting process are still on the rise in the US. Minority groups are often discriminated or blocked from participating in the voting process both in ways that they can discern and through cunning plans that can involve the voting process. Some of the main reasons why minorities’ constitutional rights are violated include racial discrimination by majority races, and to manipulate the outcome of the elections so as to keep minority groups out of the political leadership structure. The fourteenth amendment and the constitution do not sufficiently safeguard the rights of minority groups during elections beca.

Debts to Asset Ratio 0.86 0.86 Total Debts/Total Assets
IBM's days in inventory is around two weeks and this means that goods in the inventory
as efficnetly distributed and that there is a consitantly good inventory control for the
company.
The company's debts to assets ratio is the same for two years and this means that the
company has less debt than asset. However, it is still a relatively poor ratio because this
might show that there are potential problems for the company to generate sufficient
revenue.
The current ratio of the company has decreased over the year, and this means that the
company has less liquid assets to cover its short term liabilities. Since the ratio is
currently approaching 1, the company might be having liquidation problem.
The profit margin for IBM is very stable and it has been about 12% for two years. The
company is performing the profit-generating ability at an average level and it is having
an average profit margin in the industry.
The receiveables turnover is good for the company while between these two years, there
is a decline. As the company is collecting its accounts receiveables around 10 times per
year, the collection is frequent.
The company has been collecting money from customers on credit sales approximately
once every month, and the company usually has fast credit collection, which means that
the risk for credit sales is relatively low.
Inventory turnover measures how many times a company sells and replaces inventory
during a year and for IBM, the number of times is stable and it is constantly around 25.
This means that the company has an efficient control of its goods in the inventory.

Zheng Hes Inscription This inscription was carved on a stele erec.docx
Zheng He's Inscription
This inscription was carved on a stele erected at a temple to the goddess the Celestial Spouse at Changle in Fujian province in 1431. Message written before his last voyage.
The Imperial Ming Dynasty unifying seas and continents, surpassing the three dynasties even goes beyond the Han and Tang dynasties. The countries beyond the horizon and from the ends of the earth have all become subjects and to the most western of the western or the most northern of the northern countries, however far they may be, the distance and the routes may be calculated. Thus the barbarians from beyond the seas, though their countries are truly distant, "have come to audience bearing precious objects and presents.
The Emperor, approving of their loyalty and sincerity, has ordered us (Zheng) He and others at the head of several tens of thousands of officers and flag-troops to ascend (use) more than one hundred large ships to go and confer presents on them in order to make manifest (make it happen) the transforming power of the (imperial) virtue and to treat distant people with kindness. From the third year of Yongle (1405) till now we have seven times received the commission (official permission) of ambassadors to countries of the western ocean. The barbarian countries which we have visited are: by way of Zhancheng (Champa Cambodia), Zhaowa (Java), Sanfoqi (Palembang- Indonesia) and Xianlo (Siam/Thailand) crossing straight over to Xilanshan (Ceylon- Sri Lanka) in South India, Guli (Calicut) [India], and Kezhi (Cochin India), we have gone to the western regions Hulumosi (Hormuz Between Oman and Iran), Adan (Aden), Mugudushu (Mogadishu- Somalia), altogether more than thirty countries large and small. We have traversed more than one hundred thousand li (distance of 500 meters) of immense water spaces and have beheld in the ocean huge waves like mountains rising sky-high, and we have set eyes on barbarian regions far away hidden in a blue transparency of light vapours, while our sails loftily unfurled like clouds day and night continued their course (rapid like that) of a star, traversing those savage waves as if we were treading a public thoroughfare. Truly this was due to the majesty and the good fortune of the Court and moreover we owe it to the protecting virtue of the divine Celestial Spouse.
The power of the goddess having indeed been manifested in previous times has been abundantly revealed in the present generation. When we arrived in the distant countries we captured alive those of the native kings who were not respectful and exterminated those barbarian robbers who were engaged in piracy, so that consequently the sea route was cleansed and pacified (to make someone or something peaceful) and the natives put their trust in it. All this is due to the favours of the goddess.
We have respectfully received an Imperial commemorative composition (essay/piece of writing) exalting the miraculous favours, which is the highest recompense and.

Time and Memory in Two Portal Fantasies: An Analysis of Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland and "Windeye"
Life is a collection of moments, and some memories last forever. Brian Evenson
demonstrated this in “Windeye,”a story of a man who faces mental challenges because of the
life-long memory of his sister. In spite of the fact that his mother insists that the sister did not
exist, the protagonist stuck to this belief until his old age. The basis of the protagonist’s
problems is the intense love and unforgettable memories he shared with his imagined sister.
A great portion of his childhood memories is centered around his sister and their exploration
of the windeye. Windeye, the corruption of the word window, is a portal that causes the
disappearance of the protagonist’s sister. The popular portal fantasy, Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland, illustrates a similar story in the same sub-genre where a girl travels through a
rabbit hole and experiences a fantasy world which chronicles her changes from naive child-
like responses to more adult-like problem solving reactions. In “Windeye,” Brian Evenson
utilizes the portal trope to develop conflict and outcomes while exploring the themes of time
and memory. In both stories, the use of the portal trope creates a distinct world that is
separate from reality; however, the outcomes are different, and ultimately, Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland presents the theme of growth while “Windeye” explores time and memories.
The use of time factors allows the reader to travel back to the origin of the story in “Windeye” and experience the beginning of the central conflict. It is in his past that the
protagonist develops strong childhood memories of a sister, which is the cause of his future
mental challenges. In the present, the narrator is old and rickety as he uses a cane to walk but
is still reminiscent of the past (Evenson). He holds firm to the belief that he might have a
chance of meeting his sister again and thus contemplates the future and the sister’s
appearance. The plot of “Windeye” is composed of distinctive life moments: the past, the
present, and the future, which offer a clear and complete description of the events. The theme
Zhou 2
of time allows the reader to understand why the protagonist profoundly feels that his sister exists. In essence, it is time travel that gives the story a picture of the events that lead to the current situation.
The portal fantasy is a fictional literary device where a character enters into a
fantastical world through a portal or a hole. In Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Carroll
uses a rabbit hole as a physical portal to move through time. Comparably, Evenson utilizes
the windeye, a window that can only be seen from one side, as a physical portal. When the
sister touches the windeye, her brother believes that she enters into another reality through
the portal as Alice does. In contrast, the protagonist also experiences a new reality as he is.

Comparing Gas-Powered Cars and Electric Cars
Electric cars have become increasingly popular in the past century. These cars use
electric motors instead of conventional gasoline engines. Electric cars pollute less and utilize
energy more efficiently than gas-powered vehicles; therefore, modern research is focusing on
improving electric vehicles, such as increasing the storage capacity of the batteries. This essay
seeks to identify the differences and similarities between the two types of cars focusing on their
performance, price, and convenience.
An electric car is a car that is primarily powered by electricity. The conventional gas-
powered cars require diesel or gasoline to power the engines. These cars have gas tanks that store
fuel and the engine converts the gas to the energy that powers the motor. Similarly, electric cars
have batteries, or fuel cells that store and convert electricity to energy used to propel electric
motors (What Are Electric Cars?). Four components present in electric cars distinguish it from
the gas-powered cars (Alternative Fuels Data Center: How Do All-Electric Cars Work?). The
first is the charge port. Since electricity powers an electric car, there has to be a port to connect
to an external power source when charging the battery. The second is an electric traction motor
that propels the vehicle. The third is a traction battery pack. This battery serves the same purpose
as the gas tank; thus, it stocks electric power to propel the motor. The forth is a direct current
converter. This component converts the current to low voltage power that is needed to power the
electric engine.

You need to watch the panapto session for this paper assignment and FOLLOW the instructions I give there. Your topic sentence must follow the patterns set forth by your thesis. So, this first paragraph must have a topic sentence about GAS POWERED cars and PRICE. That is what you have set forth in your thesis. Watch the panapto session. And ask me questions if you do not understand what I mean.
Tamara Kuzmenkov
90000001730094
No, you cannot 'announce' what your essay will do. And this is NOT the thesis I approved. What I approved:"Both gas-powered cars and electric cars are now in use, but their price, performance and convenience may vary, which may influence people's decisions about which type to use."
Zhang 2
Differences between gas-powered cars and electric cars
The initial purchase price of an electric car is much higher than that of a gas-powered car.
Consumers intending to own a vehicle have the option of buying or leasing. The initial cost of a
car depends on an individual's disposable income and savings. Knez et al. noted that "When it
comes to financial features, the most important thing seems to be the total price of the vehicle"
(55). The difference in price between electr.

Reputation by Taylor Swift
After Taylor Swift fell into disrepute, she was truly reborn. As a creative singer
who reveals a lot of real life emotions and details in her works, she constantly refines
and shares her emotional connection with her audience. In her new album, people find
resonance in her work, connect it with their own lives. "Reputation" is not only the
original efforts of Taylor Swift, but also means that she turned gorgeously and
dominated. This album is like a swearing word from her to the world. Revenge fantasy,
sweet love, painful growth... all the good and bad things that happened in these stages
of life, her music seems to have gone through with us all over again.
But last August, the now 28-year-old singer declared that "the old Taylor is
dead" in her eerie single "Look What You Made Me Do," the beginning of a new era for
Swift (Weatherby). The disclosure of the society, the accusations of rumor makers,
these straight-forward lyrics shred the ugly face of those unscrupulous people. Taylor
Swift did not endure the rumors in the society, but created this rock album after the
silence. If 1989 is still what Taylor hopes to gain the understanding of the public, this
album is really a matter of opening up the past concerns, saying goodbye to the past
as well as being a true Taylor Swift. No longer caring about the so-called "reputation ",
preferring to be burned to death by those ridiculous "images." This air of newfound
jadedness is one of the many ways in which Swift broadcasts her long-overdue loss of
Zhang �2
innocence on “Reputation,” an album that captures the singer during the most
turbulent but commercially successful period of her career. (Primeau)
The cover is black and white, the picture is Taylor's head, and the side is the
newspaper's article and title words. The cover of the album may be a metaphor, it
reveals that Taylor can no longer stand the report of the gossip media, and the chain on
the neck represents depression and breathlessness. The theme and style of the album
are all refined from their own lives. The emotions and themes interpreted in her songs
make the audience feel more deeply that her album is her life. Without even using any
real words, fans can surmise what this means — a reference to the endless headlines
and stories the singer has spurred in recent years. (Primeau) Reputation, come to diss
the past and all opponents.
The lyrics and MV are full of real stalks in Taylor Swift's life , with Taylor's
resentment for circles and industry since his debut. In the era of streaming singles, she
is the rare young star who still worships at the altar of the album, an old-fashioned
instinct that serves her surprisingly well. (Battan) "Look What You Made Me Do" is a
counterattack against Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, Katy Perry and numerous
online "black mold". And .

Nature offers many examples of specialization and collaboration. Ant colonies and bee hives are but two examples of nature’s sophisticated organizations. Each thrives because their members specialize by tasks, divide labor, and collaborate to ensure food, safety, and general well-being of the colony or hive.
In this Discussion, you will reflect on your own observations of and/or experiences with informaticist collaboration. You will also propose strategies for how these collaborative experiences might be improved.
Of course, humans don’t fare too badly in this regard either. And healthcare is a great example. As specialists in the collection, access, and application of data, nurse informaticists collaborate with specialists on a regular basis to ensure that appropriate data is available to make decisions and take actions to ensure the general well-being of patients.
Post
a description of experiences or observations about how nurse informaticists and/or data or technology specialists interact with other professionals within your healthcare organization. Suggest at least one strategy on how these interactions might be improved. Be specific and provide examples. Then, explain the impact you believe the continued evolution of nursing informatics as a specialty and/or the continued emergence of new technologies might have on professional interactions.

ZACHARY SHEMTOB AND DAVID LAT
Zachary Shemtob, formerly editor in chief of the Georgetown Law Review, is a clerk in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York. David Lat is a former federal prosecutor. Their essay originally appeared in the New York Times in 2011.
Executions Should Be Televised
Earlier this month, Georgia conducted its third execution this year. This would have passed relatively unnoticed if not for a controversy surrounding its videotaping. Lawyers for the condemned inmate, Andrew Grant DeYoung, had persuaded a judge to allow the recording of his last moments as part of an effort to obtain evidence on whether lethal injection caused unnecessary suffering.
Though he argued for videotaping, one of Mr. DeYoung’s defense lawyers, Brian Kammer, spoke out against releasing the footage to the public. “It’s a horrible thing that Andrew DeYoung had to go through,” Mr. Kammer said, “and it’s not for the public to see that.”
We respectfully disagree. Executions in the United States ought to be made public.
Right now, executions are generally open only to the press and a few select witnesses. For the rest of us, the vague contours are provided in the morning paper. Yet a functioning democracy demands maximum accountability and transparency. As long as executions remain behind closed doors, those are impossible. The people should have the right to see what is being done in their name and with their tax dollars.
This is particularly relevant given the current debate on whether specific methods of lethal injection constitute cruel and unusual punishment and therefore violate the Constitution.
There is a dramatic difference between reading or hearing of such an event and observing it through image and sound. (This is obvious to those who saw the footage of Saddam Hussein’s hanging in 2006 or the death of Neda Agha-Soltan during the protests in Iran in 2009.) We are not calling for opening executions completely to the public — conducting them before a live crowd — but rather for broadcasting them live or recording them for future release, on the web or TV.
When another Georgia inmate, Roy Blankenship, was executed in June, the prisoner jerked his head, grimaced, gasped, and lurched, according to a medical expert’s affidavit. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that Mr. DeYoung, executed in the same manner, “showed no violent signs in death.” Voters should not have to rely on media accounts to understand what takes place when a man is put to death.
Cameras record legislative sessions and presidential debates, and courtrooms are allowing greater television access. When he was an Illinois state senator, President Obama successfully pressed for the videotaping of homicide interrogations and confessions. The most serious penalty of all surely demands equal if not greater scrutiny.
Opponents of our proposal offer many objections. State lawyers argued that making Mr. DeYoung’s execution public raised safety concerns..

The essay discusses the most serious problems Zeng previously faced with their writing, including issues with grammar, verb tenses, and content quality. It describes Zeng's initial strategy of only focusing on highlighted mistakes, but then realizing this was not enough and starting to read more books in English and write more diverse essays. The essay reflects on Zeng meeting the university's writing requirements being just the beginning, and the need to continue improving editing skills and focusing on content, evidence, and meeting further targets.

This document summarizes a lecture on the social organization of Hindustani music. It discusses key terms like gharana (musical lineage), khandan (musical family), and the distinction between soloists and accompanists. Socially, soloists came from higher castes than accompanists. Musically, the performance structure involved a soloist leading with accompanists following. Over time, accompanists gained more prominence and independence, filling important musical roles and occasionally challenging the traditional hierarchy. Lineage and pedigree (gharana/khandan) became important for musicians' social and musical identities.

My employer has several methods for obtaining information from associates to help identify and solve problems, specifically interviews, surveys, and observations. Known as “fireside chats,” our one-on-one interview method randomly selects five different associates each month and provides them with a 45-minute, uninterrupted meeting with the executive director. During this interview, the executive director asks a series of predetermined questions developed to probe for honest and transparent opinions of issues and conditions within the community. Once those questions are discussed, the associate is given the opportunity to share any other items that were not mentioned previously. By randomly selecting a small number of associates each month, the issues developing in the community are shared from a cross-section of the team allowing for differing perspectives on the same concern.
Surveys are conducted annually or bi-annually to collect predetermined data for the purposes of (1) tracking progress on existing concerns and (2) identifying the manifestation of new concerns. The surveys come from the home office to address concerns that affect the entire company. Since there is a significant number of employees for whom English is a second language, the survey is offered in English and Spanish so as many people as possible can provide answers in their native tongue. Unfortunately, because many of employees are of low socio-economic status, distributing the survey electronically has mixed results – many employees do not have easy access to technology while others simply do not know who to use it. To help with this problem, employees are encouraged to complete surveys onsite using company tablets.
Finally, observations allow us “to collect data on actual behavior rather than reports of people’s behavior” (Anderson, 2016, p. 151). We do not use this a primary source of data gathering; rather, informal and formal observations give us the opportunity to confirm reports first-hand. Unofficially and informally, I will often observe goings-on to try identifying potential concerns so we can implement interventions before preemptively.

ABSTRACT
The present study investigates the effects of game-based language learning with Kinect technology on
students’ self-efficacy beliefs and attitudes toward English. The study was conducted at a state university
located in Central Turkey. Foreign language education is promoted in Turkey, yet because of several
factors, among which weekly hours of teaching, and student motivation prevail, and students still cannot
develop their language skills. The literature shows that these problems might be minimized making use of
technological advancements effectively in the classroom. Therefore, game-based language learning,
through which students carry out meaningful tasks based on real-life scenarios to develop their
communication skills, is getting an increasing attention. In this study, a pre-test/post-test quasi-experimental
study was conducted. Participants were the first-year students taking English as a compulsory course. In
total, there were 62 participants. The instruments included two questionnaires measuring self-efficacy
beliefs and attitude toward English. The results revealed that there was a significant positive increase in
some sub-factors of attitude and self-efficacy scores of the students in the experimental group compared to
the average scores of the students in the control group. The study explains why game-based learning
activities with Kinect technology should be integrated into the foreign language courses.

Introduction
In today's globalizing world, individuals are encouraged to learn other languages so that they can improve
themselves and keep pace with developments and changes around the world. Especially in Europe, there is an
increasing effort in foreign language learning. However, it still remains a challenge to reach to the native-like
level of proficiency. The literature shows that there are a number of factors playing a role in that, among which
crowded classrooms, employing traditional methods, inappropriate assessmen.

YURIKO SAITOThe Moral Dimension of Japanese Aesthetics.docx
YURIKO SAITO
The Moral Dimension of Japanese Aesthetics
Japanese aesthetics was first introduced to the
non-Japanese audience around the turn of the
twentieth century through now classic works, such
as Bushidō (1899), The Ideals of the East (1904),
and The Book of Tea (1907), all written in En-
glish and published in the United States.1 Since
then, Japanese aesthetic concepts, such as wabi,
sabi, yūgen, iki, and mono no aware, have be-
come better known, some even popularized to-
day.2 Some traditional Japanese art media, such
as flower arrangement, Noh theater, haiku, mar-
tial arts, and, perhaps most prominently, tea cere-
mony, are now widely studied and sometimes prac-
ticed outside of Japan. The authors of all these
studies generally characterize Japanese aesthet-
ics by focusing on aesthetic concepts and phe-
nomena that are “unique to” Japan and “differ-
ent from” non-Japanese aesthetic traditions, the
Western aesthetic tradition in particular.
Meanwhile, recent scholarship in Japanese
studies examines the historical and political con-
text during the rapid process of Westernization
(late nineteenth century through early twentieth
century) that prompted Japanese intellectuals at
the time to rediscover and reaffirm the character,
and sometimes superiority, of their own cultural
tradition and values, particularly aesthetics. Some
argue that, whether consciously or not, this pro-
motion of cultural nationalism paved the way for
the political ultra-nationalism that was the ideo-
logical underpinning of colonialism.3
Despite recent efforts to introduce, popularize,
or contextualize Japanese aesthetics, uncharted
territories remain. In this paper I explore one such
area: the moral dimension of Japanese aesthet-
ics. I characterize the long-held Japanese aesthetic
tradition to be morally based by promoting re-
spect, care, and consideration for others, both hu-
mans and nonhumans. Although both moral and
aesthetic dimensions of Japanese culture have, in-
dependently, received considerable attention by
scholars of Japanese aesthetics, culture, and soci-
ety, the relationship between the two has yet to
be articulated. One reason may be that there is no
specific term in either Japanese or English to cap-
ture its content. Furthermore, although this moral
dimension of aesthetic life is specifically incorpo-
rated in some arts, such as the tea ceremony and
haiku, it is deeply entrenched in people’s daily,
mundane activities and thoroughly integrated with
everyday life, rendering it rather invisible. Simi-
larly, contemporary discourse on morality has not
given much consideration to this aesthetic mani-
festation of moral values, despite the emergence
of feminist ethics, ethics of care, and virtue ethics.
Although they emphasize humility, care, and con-
siderateness, discourses on feminist ethics primar-
ily address actions or persons, not the aesthetic
qualities of the works they produce.
Japanese aesthetics suggests several ways for

Augustus the Great
The Augustus of Primaporta is a famous free-standing sculpture that depicts Augustus,
the very first emperor of Rome. Constructed by an unknown Roman artist in 20 B.C.E, the white
marble statue stands at an impressive height of 2.04 meters. This flawless portrayal of Augustus
was influenced by the Greek’s emphasis on idealism. At the time, Roman art incorporated
characteristics of Greek Classical art, making sure their sculptures were proportionate and based
on the human figure. Some sculptors utilize white marble as their medium considering that it’s
easy to manipulate and the texture resembles the soft skin of a person. In the Augustus of
Primaporta, Emperor Augustus stands upright as he signals to some undiscovered, distant
location. With Cupid at his leg, he is illustrated as a vigorous visionary who is beloved by the
Roman gods and fit to rule the Roman Empire. Indeed, the Augustus of Primaporta exemplifies
the ideal representation of an authoritative ruler by rendering the first Roman emperor as a
god-like figure who holds an unparalleled amount of power and ambition.
Augustus was a strong, influential leader who had the entire empire of Rome within the
palm of his hand. He was admired by his citizens and feared by outside nations; he undeniably
yielded a formidable mass of power. Taking this into account, it seems only natural that a statue
of his image would capture his awe-inspiring qualities while simultaneously comparing him to a
god. This statue came to be known as the Augustus of Primaporta, which defines Augustus as the
Yung 2
quintessential ruler. The anonymous sculptor’s use of the formal elements in art highlights the
zealous nature of Augustus with the suggestion of implied lines and motion. Similarly, the
sculptor demonstrates his knowledge of the design principles by emphasizing visual weight and
human-like proportions. These particular components paint the real Augustus as having more
aspirations and might than he actually did.
Two of the formal elements that the sculptor displays.

Hi Katharine Mitchell,
I am Jessica Waldorf, a scholar research in Sex and Gender for 5 years, who just travel to Santa Cruz. And I write this paper for suggesting that UCSC should add a new major or some courses for students, which deal with the topic of Sex and Gender.
Over the last couple of years, significant changes have taken place in the world. As the world has entered the “Internet Age”, it has changed the entire face of the world, how life used to be and how things are right now. With this border context, some emerging problems which might be only cared for by a small group of people might evolve a heated discussion. Nowadays, with more and more incident and city news came out, like Harvey Weinstein’s and Trump’s sexual harassment news, more and more people start to care about “Sex and Gender” problems. What’s more, recently, in the scientific community, interdisciplinary research become a general trend of subject development. Because of this, the research of “Sex and Gender” as a cross-disciplinary subject must have more and more scientists to commit. The importance of Sex and Gender research can also be understood by the statement of Carol Colaterlla who is the associate dean at the Ivan Allen CLA and also co-director of the Center for the Study of Technology at the Georgia Institute of Technology, “Gender students as a field illustrates the potential of interdisciplinary scholarship in today’s scientific and technical university” (Carol, 2014). How can we miss the chance to build up such a subject, which is popular and have scientific research value, in such a beautiful campus?
In the United States, sex and gender education has always remained a hot debate or issue. “While the debate about sex and gender studies are mostly related to grad school and high school, there were rarely any talk about the discussion of sex and gender course at the collegiate level or graduation level” (Sollie, Donna & Kaetz, 1992). This actually tells a lot about as educationists and as a nation, we have failed to understand the importance of this education for students and how it will help them in the rest of their lives. Because of the resource available nowadays, there remains no reason why gender and sex courses should not become a part of educational institutions and teach to students. This is a humble effort of convincing the school to include gender and sex courses in their curriculum and play their part in educating students and prepare them for life completely. It should be taught as an essential course to all students – regardless of their fields. Just like language composition, report writing and math is taught to every student, sex and gender courses should also be introduced in the school. This task can be accomplished by creating multiple courses that meet the health science general education requirements. Although, we are always debate about when sex education shoul.

Dear Ms. Baker,
My name is Yusuf M. and I am a visiting student at Rutgers University. After having conducted years of research on mental wellness with renowned health psychologist Dr. David Creswell, I’ve gained an increased awareness for the growing mental health crisis that plagues this country and a greater appreciation for the amazing work that organizations like SAMHSA are doing. As you know, mental health concerns are more serious and prevalent in today's society than ever before, yet not enough is being done about them. At Rutgers University, I’ve thoroughly investigated this issue from both the student’s and administration’s perspectives to put together a comprehensive plan, detailed in the attached proposal, that utilizes both a strong online presence and mental health education to reach as many students as possible.
Currently, there are about 43 million Americans with mental illness and almost half of them aren’t seeking the treatment they need due to a lack of access to care or sufficient funds, fear of being labeled as mentally ill and/or not knowing where or how to seek help. For college student specifically, a whopping 80% of them aren’t seeking treatment. This is because, in addition to the reasons mentioned earlier, many universities like Rutgers can’t meet the growing demand for mental health services, and instead of reaching out to students, they have taken a reactive approach and have become triage services that quickly “treat” students as they come in.
In order to make it easier for Rutgers students to learn about and use available mental health services and to diminish the negative stigma that deters many from getting help, I have devised a research-based plan that pulls effective strategies from the latest research and successful models. The first and second phases of my plan ensure that all students understand what mental illness is as well as how and why they should seek treatment. The third phase not only adds on another layer of support, but also breaks down many of the barriers to seeking treatment. Please take your time to read through my attached proposal. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me at 732-664-4498. I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Sincerely,
Yusuf M.

Zhou 1Time and Memory in Two Portal Fantasies An Analys.docx

Time and Memory in Two Portal Fantasies: An Analysis of Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland and "Windeye"
Life is a collection of moments, and some memories last forever. Brian Evenson
demonstrated this in “Windeye,”a story of a man who faces mental challenges because of the
life-long memory of his sister. In spite of the fact that his mother insists that the sister did not
exist, the protagonist stuck to this belief until his old age. The basis of the protagonist’s
problems is the intense love and unforgettable memories he shared with his imagined sister.
A great portion of his childhood memories is centered around his sister and their exploration
of the windeye. Windeye, the corruption of the word window, is a portal that causes the
disappearance of the protagonist’s sister. The popular portal fantasy, Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland, illustrates a similar story in the same sub-genre where a girl travels through a
rabbit hole and experiences a fantasy world which chronicles her changes from naive child-
like responses to more adult-like problem solving reactions. In “Windeye,” Brian Evenson
utilizes the portal trope to develop conflict and outcomes while exploring the themes of time
and memory. In both stories, the use of the portal trope creates a distinct world that is
separate from reality; however, the outcomes are different, and ultimately, Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland presents the theme of growth while “Windeye” explores time and memories.
The use of time factors allows the reader to travel back to the origin of the story in “Windeye” and experience the beginning of the central conflict. It is in his past that the
protagonist develops strong childhood memories of a sister, which is the cause of his future
mental challenges. In the present, the narrator is old and rickety as he uses a cane to walk but
is still reminiscent of the past (Evenson). He holds firm to the belief that he might have a
chance of meeting his sister again and thus contemplates the future and the sister’s
appearance. The plot of “Windeye” is composed of distinctive life moments: the past, the
present, and the future, which offer a clear and complete description of the events. The theme
Zhou 2
of time allows the reader to understand why the protagonist profoundly feels that his sister exists. In essence, it is time travel that gives the story a picture of the events that lead to the current situation.
The portal fantasy is a fictional literary device where a character enters into a
fantastical world through a portal or a hole. In Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Carroll
uses a rabbit hole as a physical portal to move through time. Comparably, Evenson utilizes
the windeye, a window that can only be seen from one side, as a physical portal. When the
sister touches the windeye, her brother believes that she enters into another reality through
the portal as Alice does. In contrast, the protagonist also experiences a new reality as he is.

Comparing Gas-Powered Cars and Electric Cars
Electric cars have become increasingly popular in the past century. These cars use
electric motors instead of conventional gasoline engines. Electric cars pollute less and utilize
energy more efficiently than gas-powered vehicles; therefore, modern research is focusing on
improving electric vehicles, such as increasing the storage capacity of the batteries. This essay
seeks to identify the differences and similarities between the two types of cars focusing on their
performance, price, and convenience.
An electric car is a car that is primarily powered by electricity. The conventional gas-
powered cars require diesel or gasoline to power the engines. These cars have gas tanks that store
fuel and the engine converts the gas to the energy that powers the motor. Similarly, electric cars
have batteries, or fuel cells that store and convert electricity to energy used to propel electric
motors (What Are Electric Cars?). Four components present in electric cars distinguish it from
the gas-powered cars (Alternative Fuels Data Center: How Do All-Electric Cars Work?). The
first is the charge port. Since electricity powers an electric car, there has to be a port to connect
to an external power source when charging the battery. The second is an electric traction motor
that propels the vehicle. The third is a traction battery pack. This battery serves the same purpose
as the gas tank; thus, it stocks electric power to propel the motor. The forth is a direct current
converter. This component converts the current to low voltage power that is needed to power the
electric engine.

You need to watch the panapto session for this paper assignment and FOLLOW the instructions I give there. Your topic sentence must follow the patterns set forth by your thesis. So, this first paragraph must have a topic sentence about GAS POWERED cars and PRICE. That is what you have set forth in your thesis. Watch the panapto session. And ask me questions if you do not understand what I mean.

No, you cannot 'announce' what your essay will do. And this is NOT the thesis I approved. What I approved:"Both gas-powered cars and electric cars are now in use, but their price, performance and convenience may vary, which may influence people's decisions about which type to use."
Zhang 2
Differences between gas-powered cars and electric cars
The initial purchase price of an electric car is much higher than that of a gas-powered car.
Consumers intending to own a vehicle have the option of buying or leasing. The initial cost of a
car depends on an individual's disposable income and savings. Knez et al. noted that "When it
comes to financial features, the most important thing seems to be the total price of the vehicle"
(55). The difference in price between electr.

Reputation by Taylor Swift
After Taylor Swift fell into disrepute, she was truly reborn. As a creative singer
who reveals a lot of real life emotions and details in her works, she constantly refines
and shares her emotional connection with her audience. In her new album, people find
resonance in her work, connect it with their own lives. "Reputation" is not only the
original efforts of Taylor Swift, but also means that she turned gorgeously and
dominated. This album is like a swearing word from her to the world. Revenge fantasy,
sweet love, painful growth... all the good and bad things that happened in these stages
of life, her music seems to have gone through with us all over again.
But last August, the now 28-year-old singer declared that "the old Taylor is
dead" in her eerie single "Look What You Made Me Do," the beginning of a new era for
Swift (Weatherby). The disclosure of the society, the accusations of rumor makers,
these straight-forward lyrics shred the ugly face of those unscrupulous people. Taylor
Swift did not endure the rumors in the society, but created this rock album after the
silence. If 1989 is still what Taylor hopes to gain the understanding of the public, this
album is really a matter of opening up the past concerns, saying goodbye to the past
as well as being a true Taylor Swift. No longer caring about the so-called "reputation ",
preferring to be burned to death by those ridiculous "images." This air of newfound
jadedness is one of the many ways in which Swift broadcasts her long-overdue loss of
Zhang �2
innocence on “Reputation,” an album that captures the singer during the most
turbulent but commercially successful period of her career. (Primeau)
The cover is black and white, the picture is Taylor's head, and the side is the
newspaper's article and title words. The cover of the album may be a metaphor, it
reveals that Taylor can no longer stand the report of the gossip media, and the chain on
the neck represents depression and breathlessness. The theme and style of the album
are all refined from their own lives. The emotions and themes interpreted in her songs
make the audience feel more deeply that her album is her life. Without even using any
real words, fans can surmise what this means — a reference to the endless headlines
and stories the singer has spurred in recent years. (Primeau) Reputation, come to diss
the past and all opponents.
The lyrics and MV are full of real stalks in Taylor Swift's life , with Taylor's
resentment for circles and industry since his debut. In the era of streaming singles, she
is the rare young star who still worships at the altar of the album, an old-fashioned
instinct that serves her surprisingly well. (Battan) "Look What You Made Me Do" is a
counterattack against Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, Katy Perry and numerous
online "black mold". And .

Nature offers many examples of specialization and collaboration. Ant colonies and bee hives are but two examples of nature’s sophisticated organizations. Each thrives because their members specialize by tasks, divide labor, and collaborate to ensure food, safety, and general well-being of the colony or hive.
In this Discussion, you will reflect on your own observations of and/or experiences with informaticist collaboration. You will also propose strategies for how these collaborative experiences might be improved.
Of course, humans don’t fare too badly in this regard either. And healthcare is a great example. As specialists in the collection, access, and application of data, nurse informaticists collaborate with specialists on a regular basis to ensure that appropriate data is available to make decisions and take actions to ensure the general well-being of patients.
Post
a description of experiences or observations about how nurse informaticists and/or data or technology specialists interact with other professionals within your healthcare organization. Suggest at least one strategy on how these interactions might be improved. Be specific and provide examples. Then, explain the impact you believe the continued evolution of nursing informatics as a specialty and/or the continued emergence of new technologies might have on professional interactions.

ZACHARY SHEMTOB AND DAVID LAT
Zachary Shemtob, formerly editor in chief of the Georgetown Law Review, is a clerk in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York. David Lat is a former federal prosecutor. Their essay originally appeared in the New York Times in 2011.
Executions Should Be Televised
Earlier this month, Georgia conducted its third execution this year. This would have passed relatively unnoticed if not for a controversy surrounding its videotaping. Lawyers for the condemned inmate, Andrew Grant DeYoung, had persuaded a judge to allow the recording of his last moments as part of an effort to obtain evidence on whether lethal injection caused unnecessary suffering.
Though he argued for videotaping, one of Mr. DeYoung’s defense lawyers, Brian Kammer, spoke out against releasing the footage to the public. “It’s a horrible thing that Andrew DeYoung had to go through,” Mr. Kammer said, “and it’s not for the public to see that.”
We respectfully disagree. Executions in the United States ought to be made public.
Right now, executions are generally open only to the press and a few select witnesses. For the rest of us, the vague contours are provided in the morning paper. Yet a functioning democracy demands maximum accountability and transparency. As long as executions remain behind closed doors, those are impossible. The people should have the right to see what is being done in their name and with their tax dollars.
This is particularly relevant given the current debate on whether specific methods of lethal injection constitute cruel and unusual punishment and therefore violate the Constitution.
There is a dramatic difference between reading or hearing of such an event and observing it through image and sound. (This is obvious to those who saw the footage of Saddam Hussein’s hanging in 2006 or the death of Neda Agha-Soltan during the protests in Iran in 2009.) We are not calling for opening executions completely to the public — conducting them before a live crowd — but rather for broadcasting them live or recording them for future release, on the web or TV.
When another Georgia inmate, Roy Blankenship, was executed in June, the prisoner jerked his head, grimaced, gasped, and lurched, according to a medical expert’s affidavit. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that Mr. DeYoung, executed in the same manner, “showed no violent signs in death.” Voters should not have to rely on media accounts to understand what takes place when a man is put to death.
Cameras record legislative sessions and presidential debates, and courtrooms are allowing greater television access. When he was an Illinois state senator, President Obama successfully pressed for the videotaping of homicide interrogations and confessions. The most serious penalty of all surely demands equal if not greater scrutiny.
Opponents of our proposal offer many objections. State lawyers argued that making Mr. DeYoung’s execution public raised safety concerns..

Zeng Jiawen ZengChenxia Zhu English 3001-015292017Refl.docx
The document is a reflective essay written by Jiawen Zeng about improving their writing skills during their English 3001 writing proficiency course over 10 weeks. The essay discusses the most serious problems Zeng previously faced with their writing, including issues with grammar, verb tenses, and content quality. It describes Zeng's initial strategy of only focusing on highlighted mistakes, but then realizing this was not enough and starting to read more books in English and write more diverse essays. The essay reflects on Zeng meeting the university's writing requirements being just the beginning, and the need to continue improving editing skills and focusing on content, evidence, and meeting further targets.

This document summarizes a lecture on the social organization of Hindustani music. It discusses key terms like gharana (musical lineage), khandan (musical family), and the distinction between soloists and accompanists. Socially, soloists came from higher castes than accompanists. Musically, the performance structure involved a soloist leading with accompanists following. Over time, accompanists gained more prominence and independence, filling important musical roles and occasionally challenging the traditional hierarchy. Lineage and pedigree (gharana/khandan) became important for musicians' social and musical identities.

Zach Wrote:
My employer has several methods for obtaining information from associates to help identify and solve problems, specifically interviews, surveys, and observations. Known as “fireside chats,” our one-on-one interview method randomly selects five different associates each month and provides them with a 45-minute, uninterrupted meeting with the executive director. During this interview, the executive director asks a series of predetermined questions developed to probe for honest and transparent opinions of issues and conditions within the community. Once those questions are discussed, the associate is given the opportunity to share any other items that were not mentioned previously. By randomly selecting a small number of associates each month, the issues developing in the community are shared from a cross-section of the team allowing for differing perspectives on the same concern.
Surveys are conducted annually or bi-annually to collect predetermined data for the purposes of (1) tracking progress on existing concerns and (2) identifying the manifestation of new concerns. The surveys come from the home office to address concerns that affect the entire company. Since there is a significant number of employees for whom English is a second language, the survey is offered in English and Spanish so as many people as possible can provide answers in their native tongue. Unfortunately, because many of employees are of low socio-economic status, distributing the survey electronically has mixed results – many employees do not have easy access to technology while others simply do not know who to use it. To help with this problem, employees are encouraged to complete surveys onsite using company tablets.
Finally, observations allow us “to collect data on actual behavior rather than reports of people’s behavior” (Anderson, 2016, p. 151). We do not use this a primary source of data gathering; rather, informal and formal observations give us the opportunity to confirm reports first-hand. Unofficially and informally, I will often observe goings-on to try identifying potential concerns so we can implement interventions before preemptively.

ABSTRACT
The present study investigates the effects of game-based language learning with Kinect technology on
students’ self-efficacy beliefs and attitudes toward English. The study was conducted at a state university
located in Central Turkey. Foreign language education is promoted in Turkey, yet because of several
factors, among which weekly hours of teaching, and student motivation prevail, and students still cannot
develop their language skills. The literature shows that these problems might be minimized making use of
technological advancements effectively in the classroom. Therefore, game-based language learning,
through which students carry out meaningful tasks based on real-life scenarios to develop their
communication skills, is getting an increasing attention. In this study, a pre-test/post-test quasi-experimental
study was conducted. Participants were the first-year students taking English as a compulsory course. In
total, there were 62 participants. The instruments included two questionnaires measuring self-efficacy
beliefs and attitude toward English. The results revealed that there was a significant positive increase in
some sub-factors of attitude and self-efficacy scores of the students in the experimental group compared to
the average scores of the students in the control group. The study explains why game-based learning
activities with Kinect technology should be integrated into the foreign language courses.

Introduction
In today's globalizing world, individuals are encouraged to learn other languages so that they can improve
themselves and keep pace with developments and changes around the world. Especially in Europe, there is an
increasing effort in foreign language learning. However, it still remains a challenge to reach to the native-like
level of proficiency. The literature shows that there are a number of factors playing a role in that, among which
crowded classrooms, employing traditional methods, inappropriate assessmen.

YURIKO SAITOThe Moral Dimension of Japanese Aesthetics.docx
YURIKO SAITO
The Moral Dimension of Japanese Aesthetics
Japanese aesthetics was first introduced to the
non-Japanese audience around the turn of the
twentieth century through now classic works, such
as Bushidō (1899), The Ideals of the East (1904),
and The Book of Tea (1907), all written in En-
glish and published in the United States.1 Since
then, Japanese aesthetic concepts, such as wabi,
sabi, yūgen, iki, and mono no aware, have be-
come better known, some even popularized to-
day.2 Some traditional Japanese art media, such
as flower arrangement, Noh theater, haiku, mar-
tial arts, and, perhaps most prominently, tea cere-
mony, are now widely studied and sometimes prac-
ticed outside of Japan. The authors of all these
studies generally characterize Japanese aesthet-
ics by focusing on aesthetic concepts and phe-
nomena that are “unique to” Japan and “differ-
ent from” non-Japanese aesthetic traditions, the
Western aesthetic tradition in particular.
Meanwhile, recent scholarship in Japanese
studies examines the historical and political con-
text during the rapid process of Westernization
(late nineteenth century through early twentieth
century) that prompted Japanese intellectuals at
the time to rediscover and reaffirm the character,
and sometimes superiority, of their own cultural
tradition and values, particularly aesthetics. Some
argue that, whether consciously or not, this pro-
motion of cultural nationalism paved the way for
the political ultra-nationalism that was the ideo-
logical underpinning of colonialism.3
Despite recent efforts to introduce, popularize,
or contextualize Japanese aesthetics, uncharted
territories remain. In this paper I explore one such
area: the moral dimension of Japanese aesthet-
ics. I characterize the long-held Japanese aesthetic
tradition to be morally based by promoting re-
spect, care, and consideration for others, both hu-
mans and nonhumans. Although both moral and
aesthetic dimensions of Japanese culture have, in-
dependently, received considerable attention by
scholars of Japanese aesthetics, culture, and soci-
ety, the relationship between the two has yet to
be articulated. One reason may be that there is no
specific term in either Japanese or English to cap-
ture its content. Furthermore, although this moral
dimension of aesthetic life is specifically incorpo-
rated in some arts, such as the tea ceremony and
haiku, it is deeply entrenched in people’s daily,
mundane activities and thoroughly integrated with
everyday life, rendering it rather invisible. Simi-
larly, contemporary discourse on morality has not
given much consideration to this aesthetic mani-
festation of moral values, despite the emergence
of feminist ethics, ethics of care, and virtue ethics.
Although they emphasize humility, care, and con-
siderateness, discourses on feminist ethics primar-
ily address actions or persons, not the aesthetic
qualities of the works they produce.
Japanese aesthetics suggests several ways for

Augustus the Great
The Augustus of Primaporta is a famous free-standing sculpture that depicts Augustus,
the very first emperor of Rome. Constructed by an unknown Roman artist in 20 B.C.E, the white
marble statue stands at an impressive height of 2.04 meters. This flawless portrayal of Augustus
was influenced by the Greek’s emphasis on idealism. At the time, Roman art incorporated
characteristics of Greek Classical art, making sure their sculptures were proportionate and based
on the human figure. Some sculptors utilize white marble as their medium considering that it’s
easy to manipulate and the texture resembles the soft skin of a person. In the Augustus of
Primaporta, Emperor Augustus stands upright as he signals to some undiscovered, distant
location. With Cupid at his leg, he is illustrated as a vigorous visionary who is beloved by the
Roman gods and fit to rule the Roman Empire. Indeed, the Augustus of Primaporta exemplifies
the ideal representation of an authoritative ruler by rendering the first Roman emperor as a
god-like figure who holds an unparalleled amount of power and ambition.
Augustus was a strong, influential leader who had the entire empire of Rome within the
palm of his hand. He was admired by his citizens and feared by outside nations; he undeniably
yielded a formidable mass of power. Taking this into account, it seems only natural that a statue
of his image would capture his awe-inspiring qualities while simultaneously comparing him to a
god. This statue came to be known as the Augustus of Primaporta, which defines Augustus as the

quintessential ruler. The anonymous sculptor’s use of the formal elements in art highlights the
zealous nature of Augustus with the suggestion of implied lines and motion. Similarly, the
sculptor demonstrates his knowledge of the design principles by emphasizing visual weight and
human-like proportions. These particular components paint the real Augustus as having more
aspirations and might than he actually did.
Two of the formal elements that the sculptor displays.

Hi Katharine Mitchell,
I am Jessica Waldorf, a scholar research in Sex and Gender for 5 years, who just travel to Santa Cruz. And I write this paper for suggesting that UCSC should add a new major or some courses for students, which deal with the topic of Sex and Gender.
Over the last couple of years, significant changes have taken place in the world. As the world has entered the “Internet Age”, it has changed the entire face of the world, how life used to be and how things are right now. With this border context, some emerging problems which might be only cared for by a small group of people might evolve a heated discussion. Nowadays, with more and more incident and city news came out, like Harvey Weinstein’s and Trump’s sexual harassment news, more and more people start to care about “Sex and Gender” problems. What’s more, recently, in the scientific community, interdisciplinary research become a general trend of subject development. Because of this, the research of “Sex and Gender” as a cross-disciplinary subject must have more and more scientists to commit. The importance of Sex and Gender research can also be understood by the statement of Carol Colaterlla who is the associate dean at the Ivan Allen CLA and also co-director of the Center for the Study of Technology at the Georgia Institute of Technology, “Gender students as a field illustrates the potential of interdisciplinary scholarship in today’s scientific and technical university” (Carol, 2014). How can we miss the chance to build up such a subject, which is popular and have scientific research value, in such a beautiful campus?
In the United States, sex and gender education has always remained a hot debate or issue. “While the debate about sex and gender studies are mostly related to grad school and high school, there were rarely any talk about the discussion of sex and gender course at the collegiate level or graduation level” (Sollie, Donna & Kaetz, 1992). This actually tells a lot about as educationists and as a nation, we have failed to understand the importance of this education for students and how it will help them in the rest of their lives. Because of the resource available nowadays, there remains no reason why gender and sex courses should not become a part of educational institutions and teach to students. This is a humble effort of convincing the school to include gender and sex courses in their curriculum and play their part in educating students and prepare them for life completely. It should be taught as an essential course to all students – regardless of their fields. Just like language composition, report writing and math is taught to every student, sex and gender courses should also be introduced in the school. This task can be accomplished by creating multiple courses that meet the health science general education requirements. Although, we are always debate about when sex education shoul.

Dear Ms. Baker,
My name is Yusuf M. and I am a visiting student at Rutgers University. After having conducted years of research on mental wellness with renowned health psychologist Dr. David Creswell, I’ve gained an increased awareness for the growing mental health crisis that plagues this country and a greater appreciation for the amazing work that organizations like SAMHSA are doing. As you know, mental health concerns are more serious and prevalent in today's society than ever before, yet not enough is being done about them. At Rutgers University, I’ve thoroughly investigated this issue from both the student’s and administration’s perspectives to put together a comprehensive plan, detailed in the attached proposal, that utilizes both a strong online presence and mental health education to reach as many students as possible.
Currently, there are about 43 million Americans with mental illness and almost half of them aren’t seeking the treatment they need due to a lack of access to care or sufficient funds, fear of being labeled as mentally ill and/or not knowing where or how to seek help. For college student specifically, a whopping 80% of them aren’t seeking treatment. This is because, in addition to the reasons mentioned earlier, many universities like Rutgers can’t meet the growing demand for mental health services, and instead of reaching out to students, they have taken a reactive approach and have become triage services that quickly “treat” students as they come in.
In order to make it easier for Rutgers students to learn about and use available mental health services and to diminish the negative stigma that deters many from getting help, I have devised a research-based plan that pulls effective strategies from the latest research and successful models. The first and second phases of my plan ensure that all students understand what mental illness is as well as how and why they should seek treatment. The third phase not only adds on another layer of support, but also breaks down many of the barriers to seeking treatment. Please take your time to read through my attached proposal. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me at 732-664-4498. I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Sincerely,
Yusuf M.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
