3. Essay Joseph Stalin
Joseph Stalin
Joseph Stalin was one of the biggest mass murderers of the twentieth century. From the purges in
the Red Army to forced relocations, Stalin had the blood of millions on his hands. This essay is
not going to debate the fact that this was indeed a brutal and power hungry individual, because he
was indeed just that. I will on the other hand show you that through his way of governing the Soviet
Union, he actually saved mother Russia from the German invasion in World War Two through his
cunning and ruthlessness.
Joseph Stalin was a very industrious person and used every means possible to better prepare his
country for the coming war that he believed was inevitable. Wether it was diplomatic plotting,

E. Zinoviev and L. B. Kamenev. From this point on Stalin simply concentrated more and more
power into his own hands. In 1925 Stalin made a turn to the right, got rid of his two companions
and established a coalition with moderate leaders Burkharin, Rykov, and Tomsky, which lasted until
1928, when collectivization of agriculture and the forced industrialization came about.
Stalin now followed a simple pattern, he simply systematically replaced all those who were not
his absolute followers. By 1930 his rule was absolute. Stalin was now free to go ahead and
pursue his plans to industrialize and arm the Soviet Union. The only other obstacle in his path
was the army leadership. Stalin viewed the army as a threat to his power and took steps to
remove that threat. He organized all of his followers to delve into the lives of the military
leadership and find out if they were traitors. Many of Stalin s followers used this as a way of
getting back at old rivals and enemies. All kinds of false evidence was manufactured. Stalin took
all of this at face value and a great number of the army leadership was either killed or exiled.
There were also several show trials put on to demonstrate to the Soviet people that all of the
killing was being done for a reason and that there really were conspirators and spies among them.
Several accused openly confessed to active membership of a plot to murder the Soviet leadership.

4. Why Is World War 1 Necessary
Was World War 1 a Necessary World Conflict?
What happened in World War 1 (WWI)? Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to Austria Hungary s
throne, and his wife, Sophie, were assassinated by Serbian nationalist. Austria Hungary then
declared war on Serbia, Germany declared war on Russia, Germany declared war on France, and
the United Kingdom declared war on Germany, after Germany invades Belgium, then Austria
Hungary declares war on Russia and Serbia declares war on Germany. From there the first battle
began. The war mainly took place in Europe and in the seas. This war caused many casualties.
World War One was one of the deadliest conflicts in the history of the human race, in which over
16 million people died. The total number of both civilian and military casualties is estimated at
around 37 million people. The war killed almost 7 million civilians and 10 million military
personnel (Historyonthenet). World War 1 was a necessary conflict because of alliances, military
tactics, and new inventions.

The war was beneficial to some countries like America. When the war began, the U.S. economy
was in recession. But a 44 month economic boom ensued from 1914 to 1918, first as Europeans
began purchasing U.S. goods for the war and later as the United States itself joined the battle
(Lozada). WWI helped spark inspiration for change, in agriculture. The First World War also
signifies an important turning point in the history of American food consumption because it
represents a shift in eating habits, culinary practices, and domestic food preparation, including the
infiltration of fresh home grown fruit and vegetables and preserved or canned foods into the US
diet, and the introduction of supermarkets (Tanfer Emin). During the time of WWI, many
technologies were created. Sanitary napkins, watches, lamps, and more all came from WWI. This

5. Analysis Of Teenage Wasteland By Anne Tyler
Parenting is a very tough job, and not all people are fully suited for it. It is an especially
burdensome job when the kid that is being raised is someone who does not perform well in
school and hinders authority. The task described here is one Daisy has to deal with in Teenage
Wasteland by Anne Tyler. Daisy, a mother of two, who is filled with a lot of tentative thoughts,
must make choices to raise her troublesome son Donny correctly. However, when she is
constantly doing all the wrong things to amend her son s demons, it leads him down a spiraling
path of trouble both academically and mentally. Daisy is responsible for both Donny s academic
and life failures as she does not grasp an understanding of her son s issues, lets everyone else parent
her son for her, and is too harsh on Donny which causes him to abhor authority.
Daisy is naive, insecure, and does not understand what Donny is going through, and her doubtful
thoughts influences all of Daisy s actions to be ones that would help Donny s failure. Daisy
sends Donny down a bad path by not having an understanding of her son which leads her to
employ people to fix her son for her. Daisy gives in to what the school told her is best when, It
was arranged that Donny would visit a psychologist. Mr Lanham knew just the person. He
would set this boy straight he said...Daisy held her stomach in and gave Mr. Lanham a firm,
responsible handshake (Tyler 288). Her self doubt and ignorance here allows other people tell
her what is best for her son, and she blindly listens. Daisy thinks to herself that she was a failure
earlier in the meeting, and it seems she wants to do whatever would fix her son. She even
physically displays insecurity when she gets up to shake Mr. Lanham s hand. She puts no
thought into what is best for Donny and lets other people arrange sessions for her son. In another
instance, Daisy s insecurities allows Donny to fail by letting other people tell her what the issue
with her son is, which they were mostly wrong about. After Daisy gets a call from Donny s
teacher Miss Evans about her son failing school, she calls up Cal for him to say that it was the
teacher s fault and grades come in time. To which Daisy thought, When she hung up, it was

6. Why Do People Have Not Involvement With Wildlife
I believe that humans should have no involvement with wildlife. People affect the wildlife in bad
ways. Humans need to keep a closer eye on the animals if they decide to put them in a zoo. We
need to make sure that the animals that are there aren t getting bored or going crazy. People have
died because of this. Humans also shouldn t hunt animals for things that they have, such as an
elephant s tusks. Here are some reasons why we should have no involvement with wildlife.
We need to keep a closer eye on zooanimals. We take animals out of their natural habitat and put

through a physician s prescription and there were now bootleggers to produce alcohol and
speakeasies to serve it. During Prohibition, doctors were able to prescribe liquor to patients on a
specially designed government prescription form that could be filled at any pharmacy. When
medicinal whiskey stocks were low, the government would increase its production. Alcohol
prescriptions soared and a significant amount of the supplies meant for the sick were taken by

play for cold cases to finally be resolved. Such is the case with the 1973 California murders

who did horrendous things to two young girls. The families, despite the years, craved an end to
the nightmare and justice for the little girls that they had lost. Investigators were only able to
reopen the case because they had a new arsenal of tools to help them expand upon the evidence

amongst organizations, and the societal unevenness that survive in our planet. For the reason that
classifying occurs commonly and is a beneficial utensil in a lot of forms, every person s
civilization is expected to acquire stereotypes. Ingroup partiality directs to mismatched treatment of
the ones that we have classified just as the outgroup. As well as outgroup uniformity partiality
blocks our view on the dissimilarities inside the outgroup.
Yet our understanding about the traits of these outgroups and how solid our racism is counts on the

21. Microsoft s Visual Basic And Oracle s Java Essay
The need for more powerful and user friendly software grows exponentially every year. This
means that there is a higher demand for better quality and more versatile software. Higher quality
software that is versatile and consistent was very difficult to create for developers before object
oriented programming was created. The object oriented programmingmethod of utilizing objects
and methods has revolutionized the way programmers create new applications. By allowing
objects to be reusable and flexible, this allows more time to be spent on creating meaningful
coding tasks with less time coding GUI s (Gaddis Irvine, 2014, p. xvii). Microsoft s Visual Basic
and Oracle s Java are object oriented programming languages that are very powerful applications
which contain many similarities while having small differences in the syntax and the usage of
elements that are common to both. Microsoft has been producing software for many years. They
have a multitude of applications such as Excel, Word and Visual Basic. The first version of
Visual Basic was introduced in 1991 by Microsoft and is still being utilized to create applications
today (Gaddis Irvine, 2014, p. xvii). By offering backwards compatibility throughout different
versions of Visual Basic, it is easy to update and utilize the new features of this versatile software
(Gaddis Irvine, 2014, p. xviii). Visual Basic is software that creates applications by using the Object

Simple recipes by Madeleine Thien, and The Closing Down of Summer by Allister MacLeod both
focus on the struggles the characters undergo due to cultural gaps, or being away from home from
work, creating the sense of isolation or alienation within their families. The impression of isolation
found in the text is generated from the situational behaviours found in the actions, thoughts, or
exchange of language in the characters. For Macleod focuses on how his protagonist uses ancestral
rituals to find individual fulfillment on the account of his work occupation deteriorating his

This effect is demonstrated through the protagonist s dislocation of being a father, and husband.
The narrator s perspective of being a parent has deteriorated, resulting in his perception that he s
merely become a financial lifeline for his children and spouse. Yet this allows them to live life
in comfort, and not undergo what he must. The protagonist s desire to fulfill the role of a father
has become an unattainable concept due to the incapability to express his emotional or mental
struggles. Macleods protagonist at face first is resilient too the challenges of his isolated work
life. Yet the deep desire to express himself to another has become forgotten. This is understood
due being surrounded by other workers who have also forgotten to express themselves, making
self expression a forgotten skill. If the need for communication in the workplace arises, it is done

Discovery of DNA double helix: Related to both Scientific and Humane Aspects
DNA, the molecule of life that carries genetic information in humans and almost all other
organisms, has been considered as one of the greatest discoveries until now. If DNA could not have
been discovered, we would not be able to do or test numerous things such as paternity test and
pathological confirmation. There are four main scientists who contributed their lives, knowledge,

In 1952, Linus Pauling, who was eager to know the shape of DNA, had published a paper about
his proposal of a triple helical structure for DNA (Watson 54). Following Pauling, Watson and
Crick also worked on the triple helical model, but according to the X ray data, the theory for the
triple helical structure, where phosphates form the helical core with the bases pointing outwards,
was failed to show the correct structure of DNA (Watson 54).
It was Franklin s diffraction photograph Photo 51 that finally showed the helical structure of
DNA to Watson and Crick. The photo that had been crystallized under moist conditions shows a
fuzzy X in the middle of the molecule with a helical structure. She also found out that DNA
exists in two different forms, A and B. A is drier crystal in that contain 20 percent water, whereas
B is less ordered and fully hydrated (NOVA). However, the mistake that Franklin made was that
she thought X rays were the only way to find the structure of DNA (Watson 69). She thought
making models of DNA and playing with them were not that efficient and were a waste of time
(Watson 69). In addition, she also thought the method of Watson and Crick using light beam to take
a picture of DNA and calculating the lines was ineffective because she thought calculations take too
long (NOVA). Also, in Photo 51, Franklin did not notice about the helical structure and how the
nitrogenous bases are paired (Elkin 44). If she thought of different methods

24. Siddhartha, By Hermann Hesse
Siddhartha Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse was a very interesting book to read. I found it to be a
very interesting way for people, like myself, who are not Hindus, and who do not live in India to
learn about the Indian and Hindu culture and religion without being there physically to experience
it. This book is about a boy, Siddhartha, who is probably somewhere in his teenage years. He lives
with his father, who is a Brahmin, they live together in ancient India. As in many cases, there is an
expectation that Siddhartha is going to follow in his father s footsteps. If this were to take place
then Siddhartha would become a Brahmin and do the same types of things in his life that his
father has done in his. I particularly liked this book because I felt as though it was something that
many people can relate to. While a lot of people, at least not in the United States, do not have the
expectation of becoming a Brahmin, there are a lot of children and young adults who are expected
to follow what their parents have done in their life, or what if not following their exact path then
they are expected to follow the path that their parents have chosen for them. Going back to the
book, Siddhartha continues to struggle after he and his friend hang out together, and everything is
perfect, but then, all of a sudden he doesn t feel anything, he isn t happy, which concerned him
because it was something that would normally make him and other people very happy. Siddhartha,

people find themselves attracted to him because he is so great at acting and reading peopleand
learning how to manipulate them into believing that he is not actually socially alienated, he
somehow becomes the life of the party. Tom Ripleywas such a fantastic impostor he would
sometimes find himself lost in one of his characters that he was putting on. In the film it starts with
him playing the piano at a wedding filling in for a young man that went to Princeton, after meeting
Mr. Greenleaf he kept up the same character from Princeton. Tom had been very friendly last
summer with a Princeton junior who had talked of nothing but Princeton, so that Tom had finally
pumped him for more and more, foreseeing a time when he might be able to use the information
(Highsmith, 21). Ripley was always remembering information from different people he met
assuming that if need be he could pull out that information in sticky situations. One thingabout Tom
Ripley was that he found himself in sticky situations more often then some, this left him feeling
paranoid that people were after him at all times. This is no way to live life, especially when the

population grew by 2.5% in 2008, declined by 1.9% in 2009. The birth rate for the two years also
reflects this decline from 43 births per 1,000 in 2008 to 37 per 1,000 in 2009. The death rate
equally declined from 18 deaths per 1,000 in 2008 to 16.56 per 1,000 in 2009 (SURE program
2011). The life expectancy at birth was 46.94 years as of 2009. From the last census estimates,
in 2006, 66.9% of Nigerians above the age of 15 are literate; while 71.3% of males in this
category were literate whilst the figure for females was estimated at 62.4%. There is a high rate
of urbanization which stands at 5.5% per annum (percentage of people living in urban area).

31. Rocky Mountain Medical Center ( Rmmc )
Introduction
Rocky Mountain Medical Center (RMMC) is a nonprofit hospital and is the result of a merger
between a legacy community hospital and a local university hospital. The merger was an intent to
gain greater market power with third party payers and more efficient operating costs but actually
resulted in significant operating losses due to lower reimbursement rates and more intense
competition. The merger consolidated administrative staff which was financially beneficial but
decreased the quality of care between the units. RMMC is motivated to stay on the front page of
health care delivery and is dedicated to innovations improving processes and programs that impact
quality outcomes.
Delivery of efficient and quality care while maintaining efficient operating costs is an important
factor in attracting new customers from a variety of backgrounds. RMMC is located in an urban
area with high unemployment, poverty and disease. The majority of its patient mix consists of
indigent care; therefore a large portion of final reimbursement comes from Medicaid and other low
reimbursement payers resulting in huge write offs of billing related services.
Performance Measurement System
It is imperative that RMMC expands its patient mix in order to increase operating income. An
important factor in achieving this result is improving the quality of care and customer satisfaction.
RMMC needs to be able to measure the current outcomes and initiate changes for improvement.

32. Kant And Kant s Philosophy
A transcendental principle is one by which we think the universal a priori condition which alone
things can become objects of our cognition in general[.]
Immanuel Kant, p 20 of Critique of Judgment This quote most aptly describes Kant s purpose in
writing a critique of aesthetic judgment, with the most important term being transcendental. The
Oxford Dictionary defines the word as presupposed in and necessary to experience (what Kant
refers to as a priori). In this sense, it is something that pertains to elements of human experience and
then in turn conditions human knowledge. Basically (and specific to this essay and to Kant s
theory), what needs to be present for a judgment of aesthetics to occur? Kant divides the Analytic of
Aesthetic Judgment into four moments according to the four divisions of the table of logical
functions of judging: quality, quantity, relation and modality. In doing research for this essay, I
found that Kant was interested in analytical investigations into many subjects and did so in an
almost scientific fashion, so this sort of division makes sense. Each moment is serial, and the
questions raised in one moment are then addressed in the following moment. I have used the logical
functions of judging to help me find the moments that judgment takes into consideration when it
reflects (Kant, pg. 43). Based on this context, these moments are not temporal moments, but more
realms of thought or consideration. How are the conceptual

The Alchemist was originally written in Portuguese by a famous Brazilian author Paulo Coelho.
The book s original title is O Alqumistia . The book was first published in 1988 which is since
then been translated into 56 different languages and is one of the bestselling books of the history.
This translation of the book was written by Alan R. Clarke and was first published by Harper
Collins Publishers in 1993. The genres of the book are fiction, fantasy, psychology, drama.
The writer following his desire to find the Philosopher s Stone or the Elixir of Life has spent a long
time studying Alchemy. He had spent the little money he had to buy imported books. The books
were no use to him because they contained impenetrable language, full of symbols, dragons, lions,
suns, moons and other such figures. The writer throughout this book tries to explain little facts that
are but the ultimate reality in this world. As he does in the preface by saying that people only learn
truth once they have first whole heartedly rejected it; that we mustn t run away from our own
destiny; that the hand of God is firm, but infinitely generous .

34. King Henry As A Good King In William Shakespeare s Henry V
What does it mean to be a king as compared to a man? William Shakespeare s work Henry V
attempts to answer this question with a title character who is both. King Henry s morality,
defined by his deeply complex character, rests precariously on the title he is defined by: should he
be judged solely as a king or also as a man? The label makes a difference. Through his actions and
leadershipduring the play, Henry proves himself to be a good king, one worthy of respect and
admiration. However, at the same time, the same actions do not always reveal a particularly good
or virtuous man. Highlighting the disparity between the two roles, Shakespeare intended for King
Henry to be admired and respected as a good king but not necessarily as a good man.
To understand this distinction, one must first recognize that the qualities that make up a good
king often diverge from those attributed to a good man. For example, to be considered a good
man, one might try to be forgiving and tolerant; however, to be a good king, one often has to be
exactly the opposite. Why does this make sense? It is not because a king is naturally unforgiving
or refuses to take the high road; instead, he has a higher purpose than to be kind to those
immediately around him. To be a good king, one cannot be an emotional creature, but instead be a
calculating one. He should put the needs of his kingdom above all other things, including his own
desires or whims. A good king recognizes that he must serve, protect, and

Good morning/afternoon. Buying a new product can be stressful at the best of times, but when
the product is a new car worth $70,000, this stress can become overwhelming. When our client,
Mark, came to us to help him decide upon a new vehicle, he had already narrowed down the
selection to either a Mitsubishi Pajero or a Toyota Prado, having had experience with each. He
had also taken the liberty of creating a list of important observations about himself, in order for
us to help him make a quality, informed decision. The criteria are as follows: Mark has a daily
commute of 10km on average per day, so the car must have good fuel economy and comfort.
Aside from his work commute, he will drive his family members to various activities, so the
safety is a priority. Mark has a budget of $70,000 with which to buy the car, so the chosen
models must be under $70,000. Aside from city life, Mark runs a cattle station with rugged
terrain, so the car must also be up to scratch off road. Both the Toyota Prado and Mitsubishi Pajero
fit these criteria, and in order to create the fairest evaluation, the Pajero Exceed, valued at $66,500

37. The Importance Of Courage In The Ramayana
Although Modern and Epic heroes are very diverse, their courage and determination attract the
admiration of others. After reading the Ramayana, many characteristics come forth that relate to
the heroes and people many grew up hearing about. Whether it is Spiderman who had the strength
to save the whole city from evil or Harriet Tubman whose bravery saved the lives of many slaves,
their traits shine like those of many heroes from the epics in history.
Courage is a trait that many people throughout the world have. However, Most of these people
do not practice it day to day. One person that demonstrates courage in their daily lives for the
good of others is Rosa Parks. Parks used the courage she had to stand up for herself and other
African American people who did not receive the same respect. She risked everything when she
refused to let a white man take her seat on the bus so that she could make the world a better
place. Parks said, There is only one world, and yet, we as people, have treated the world as if it
were divided. We cannot allow the gains we have made to erode. The goal of her movement was
to get rid of the segregation of the black and white bathrooms, schools, and drinking fountains. She
was strong and courageous showing that you were no different because of the color of your skin.
Like Parks, the modern hero, Sita from the Ramayana also portrays Courage throughout the story.
More specifically, when Rama abandoned Sita at the time she needed him the most she showed
just how much courage she has. Sita was sent out by Rama and had to raise two children on her
own. She displayed strength and courage by not being a coward and not crying for help but rather
she did what was best for the children. She had to make decisions on her own never really
knowing if they were the right ones. Both of these women show courage in different ways, but
women around the world today can look upon both to understand how to be strong and have
courage in their most difficult times.
Along with courage, another trait most, if not all heroes have is determination. They never give up

Childbirth Positions in Chinese, Indian, and American Cultures
Culture is an enormous part of our lives. It can affect every part of our daily living from our health,
nutrition, religious beliefs, and communication, to even how one is expected to think and behave.
This paper explores various cultural beliefs on childbirth and specifically childbirth positions from
three different cultures, Chinese, Indian, and American. The basic differences in cultures permeates
one s perspective on birth and is part of why certain beliefs and restrictions are present. How one
brings new life into the world is steeped in traditions unique to each culture.
The Chinese believe that during childbirth the mother should not cry out or scream during labor.
This is due in part to their stoic nature which does not allow them to express or talk about their
problems or feelings. If they do, they may bring shame to their family known as a loss of face .
Screaming or crying out during labor may also cause interference from evil forces such as
malevolent ghosts or spirits according to religious beliefs. Chinese women usually give birth in a
hospital in either a sitting or squatting position (Queensland Govenment).
In India, women in childbirth are kept isolated from others during the birth because it is believed
to be impure and may pollute others. They are usually kept isolated for up to forty days after the

His ideas of actual love relate to narcissism in regards to the understanding of love. In other
words, love and narcissism seem to go hand in hand. The concept of narcissism was developed in
part by studying psychosis and, pragmatically, narcissism explained the intractability of
psychosis to psychoanalysis (Sharpless, 211). Sharpless uses Freud s theories of narcissism to
not only report the facts, but to use his theories in action. Where does love come from? Where
does narcissism come from? In this essay, Sharpless states the love derives from narcissism, an
idea that is supported by Freud s theories. The use of Freud in this essay concerning romantic love
