2. Border Security and Transatlantic Counter-Terrorism Measures
Border Security and Transatlantic Counter Terrorism Measures
ABSTRACT: The United States and the European Union share common values, economic interests,
and security challenges. The expansion of the European Union into the countries which were under the
Soviet sphere of influence continues to complicate the internal border security of the European Union.
Given the liberalization of trade within the EU and in turn into the US, the port and border security of
each trading partner is connected in this global economy. This paper examines some of the border
security issues facing the EU and how these challenges affect the United States. Particular interest is
paid to the porous borders of the former Warsaw Pact countries given their ... Show more content on

The United States created a more protective stance on homeland security after the terrorist attacks in
2001. This defensive mentality has effected allies and enemies alike and placed more stringent
security barriers at America s gates. The changing global environment created by these terrorist
activities has challenged the transatlantic relationship and its ability to produce effective counter
measures. Cooperation between the US and the EU in this arena is critical to the security and
economic prosperity of both regions. The EU s limited executive authority over Justice and Homeland
Affairs presents obstacles to the equal implementation of counter terrorism measures throughout the
Union.
COUNTER TERRORISM MEASURES
The US has enacted new counter terrorism measures since the attacks of 2001. Several of these
measures affect the travel standards and economic interaction with allied nations. The developments
of the Security Container Initiative, the Passenger Name Record exchange, and the freezing of
terrorist financial networks have created opportunities for both cooperation and conflict between the
US and the EU. The declarations from the US EU Summit in Ireland on counter terrorism measures
provide only part of the solution. The EU must also develop and utilize the executive power required
to ensure equal implementation across the union.

3. Bilingual Education Policy Analysis
Bilingual education policies in the Unites States have been influenced by many factors. These factors
range from the different attitudes towards languages in general and the controversy that bilingual
education creates among interested parties, to the relation between state and federal level language
policies. All of these factors together, along with a number of historical events, have contributed, in
one way or another, in shaping the country s policies of teaching language minority students
(Crawford, 2004; Johnson Johnson, 2015; Ruiz, 1988).
Before proceeding to the discussion of each factor, we may begin with a definition of what bilingual
education is. According to the Education Commission of the States website (2015), bilingual

Johnson and Johnson (2015) point out that the nation level language policies are affected by the way
each state interprets and implements them. For instance, the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) in
2002, has been implemented in Arizona State in a way that resulted in reinforcing the English only
programs that are already in it. While the same act resulted in a notable growth in other non English
programs in Washington State. The interpretation and application of the NCLB Act in both Arizona
and Washington states played a significant role both cases in determining the type of education in the
public schools in both states (Johnson Johnson, 2015, p. 93). This, as a matter of fact, shows that the
federal level language policies, NCLB here, empower states roles in deciding the most suitable
approach to follow in the implementation

America; strong, safe and stable.The United States of America is experiencing a period of stability.
Based on the past empires, Rome, Athens, and Macedonia´s qualities during their rise and stability, it
is supported that America is also on a rise. In each empire, during the rise, the government, military,
infrastructures and natural resources were all controlled and managed properly. Many people in
America believe that America is on a fall because of the government leaders, spread out military,
breaking infrastures and war with places that hold natural resources, however the people making this
argument are simply only being pessimistic and looking for ways to degrade America, mainly based
on opinion rather than fact. Right now, America ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The great leader, Augustus, developed Rome into a Republic system of government. A republic system
of government is where there is someone who leads but the citizens have a right to vote for what they
believe. America, like Rome is run under democracy. With a nation that everyone is equal and has a
right to vote, power is not over given and the leader can not make choices without the majority of the
citizens agreeing. Another aspect of Rome that made it stable was it´s military. Unlike other empires,
Rome had advanced technology and tactics during their time. One example of their advance military
technology is the pilum, according to Naked Science, It´s [the pilum] designed to pierce people, to
pierce armour, pierce their shields. Rome was able to conquer vast amounts of land. America´s
military, just like Rome s military is one of the most advanced of its time. In America the government
supplies infrastructures for the military to test out the advanced war items that they re using. One of
the most known areas that the government develops war tactics and technology is Area 51. Because of
many places to test military tactics, America is able to defeat countries where there is no freedom. In
Mesopotamia, Alexander the great conquered land and gained gold, silver, iron, copper, fish, minerals
and other natural resources (slideshare). Alexander was able to develop a stabe economy and job
stability with the natural resources. In America, there are natural resources like ¨water, wind and the

A damaged structure can potentially threaten the safety and economical use of the system, and even if
it is not detected in the early stage, it may bring about structural failure over the time. Therefore,
devising effective non destructive damage detection methods has been the center of atten tion in civil
engineering studies during the last decades [1]. These methods can be classified as local and global
techniques. Since local methods, such as the X ray, magnetic particle, ultrasound etc., are limited to
detecting damage on or near the surface of structures, the need for global damage detection
techniques, which can be used for complex structures, has resulted in development of vibration based
damage detec tion methods (VBDD). The ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In model based methods, generally, there are two models. A refer ence model, which is a well
correlated model of the undamaged struc ture. An updated model that reproduces the measured
responses under the damage states by modifying the structural properties like mass, stiffness,
damping, etc. Making comparison between these two models provide damage location and severity.
Apart from this fact that structural mod els in these methods are Structural Matrix, Finite Element
(FE), Mapping or Meta Models, updated models can be modified in a direct way or in an iterative one.
Although, model based methods have physical mean ings and are easier to be interpreted compared
with abstract mathemati cal features, they are unfortunately computationally intensive and time
consuming. Thus, they are not usually practical for online damage detec tion and structural health
monitoring (SHM), particularly where structures are large and complex and there are a lot of
simplification and uncertain ties in simulation of structure and circumstances [1]. School of Civil
Engineering, Iran University of Science and Technology. To address this issue, a novel direct model
based damage detection method is proposed. The main part of this method is Simple Adaptive Control

6. Banded Iron Formation Essay
Banded Iron Formations and evolution of the atmosphere
The time between the formation of the earth and the beginning of the Cambrian(about 570mya) is a
4000 my long period known as the Precambrian, this includes approximately 90% of geological time
of which we know very little about as pre Cambrian rocks are poorly exposed, many have been eroded
or metamorphosed and fossils are seldom found.
The Precambrian has been divided into 3 Eons: 1.Hadean (4600 3800 mya of which there is no rock
record) 2.Archean 3800 2500 mya) 3.Proterozoic 2500 570 mya.

These deposits of marine hematite and quartz represent a precipitation of dissolved iron from sea
water as the dissolved oxygen content of the water increased. After 1800 mya, Banded iron formations
are rare, but terrestrial red beds are common for the first time suggesting that iron is being oxidised
and precipitated in soils and rocks on land in the source area of sediments instead of being dissolved
and carried into the oceans in its unoxidised form. Thus, it has been reasoned that the BIF red bed
transition marks the rise of atmospheric oxygen. Complimentary information comes from detrital
uraninite in Archean and earliest Proterozoic alluvial rocks. Because this uranium mineral can survive
prolonged transport only in media containing little or no oxygen, the lack of detrital uraninite deposits
younger than 2300 ma also points towards a significant environmental transition (Roscoe,1969).
Not all scientists have accepted the validity of these observations or of their interpretation, Dimroth
and Kimberley(1976) argued that at least some red beds antedate the end of BIF deposition, that
Archean granites have paleoweathering profiles indicative of oxic environments, and that oxidised
sulphur minerals (sulphates) occur in some of the oldest known sedimentary successions. All of these
observations are correct, and we must ask whether they

Continuation of bulk billing services minimise economic barriers, with 82% of general practice

visiting PHCP s, such as general practitioners or allied health professionals, excluded cost barriers
(Australian Institute of Health and Welfare [AIHW], 2014).
Public participation in PHC refers to a right and responsibility to engage in one s health (Downey
Westera, 2009). Public participation on the individual s behalf is essential, as inadequate involvement
could result in unsuitable referral or the absence of PHC itself. Westera (2009) outlines the necessity
of community participation, referring to Local Health Advisory Committees (LHAC) (Downey
Westera, 2009) considered as the central connection between the local community and health service
attitudes (NSW Health, n.d). Through such involvement, PHC can be specialised to specific
communities, addressing strengths and issues (Downey Westera, 2009), whilst empowering local
members through their contributions (NSW Health, n.d.).
Empowerment may also arise through health promotion, being defined as activities which help
individuals and communities to increase control over the determinants of their health (AIHW, 2014).

While the war was going on, they went through cities and countries and petrified a lot of people.
Families almost died and people tried to run and left everything behind. Many people wanted to help
fight but ran to protect their children from dying within the war, although the reason they want to stay
was because of the adrenaline they had rushing through their systems at the time making them want to
fight. Everyone had a moment were their flight or fight instinct kicked in, most people choose flight,
but some out of the group stayed to fight, but at the risk of getting killed and their children possibly
dying as well just to protect their home. Most people wondered if the war was ever gonna end, at

Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights embodies the right to an adequate standard
of living. Although this doctrine was adopted in 1948, there is a significant amount of work to be done
worldwide. Moreover, the absence of a right to housing would compromise many other basic rights
including the right to family life and privacy, freedom of movement, assembly and association, and
the right to health.
The Commonwealth of Australia believes that everyone has the right to an adequate standard of living,
including adequate food, water, and housing. Australia acknowledges adequate housing as an essential

10. The Continuum Of Perception, I Tend Toward Intuition
On the continuum of perception, I tend toward Intuition. There are both positives and negatives to this
preference. On the positive side, my intuition can go a long way toward perceiving the needs of others
and helping to create a positive working environment for my employees. On the negative side,
however, my preference for intuition rather than sensing the world around me plays into one of my
perceived weaknesses, which is that, since I am a fairly mild mannered and non aggressive person,
people could perceive me, in turn, as weak or someone who can be walked over. The reality is that I
have a strong personality and I work to be diplomatic in the face of adversity, which my supervisors
continually note is an area of strength. This lends itself well to my current leadership style, which is a
blend of democratic, synergistic, and servant leader. I like to put the onus of responsibility on my
employees such that they can buy into the work that they are doing. A part of this is creating a team
atmosphere, even against my own personal preferences, to make sure there is a diverse talent pool
addressing each constituency and issue. Finally, as a servant leader, it is my duty to create an
environment for my employees success that fosters their growth. As a thinking person, I have already

11. Strengths And Weaknesses Of My Writing Class
This semester of my writing class, I have grown a new perspective on the word freedom. When
starting off, I only believed there to be one basic definition of this word. Now, I have learned that there
are two descriptive definitions and they are used in different ways. With all of the assignments I have
completed, I have found my strengths and weaknesses within my writing and have examined methods
on how to improve them efficiently. Along with that, I have used writing a tool to develop my
thoughts and process new ideas rather than just brimming the surface of the topic. Instead, I dug deep
into the readings and analyzed them in depth. Lastly, when I was stuck in any piece of work, I sought
help and used feedback that was given to me from my classmates, teacher, and the writing center.
Without my peers, I wouldn t have accomplished as much as I did this semester.
After I was done writing an assignment, that wasn t the end of my work, I still had to edit it over and

The use of narrative can guide a reader in the direction that the author wishes, be it emotionally or
otherwise. However, this must be done correctly for an author must keep their intended audience
engaged enough to listen to not only the story, but the message that is implied throughout it. The
choice over first person and third person (as there is not many works that successfully use second
person narratives) is essential based on the type of narrative the author intends to tell. In addition, the
type of conflicts that arise in a novel or short story and how they are portrayed is equally important,
but more than that is if they served any kind of meaningful purpose. Although the stories of
Housekeeping and The Hobbit are written for different audiences as well as from different
perspectives, they have similarities one may not expect unless they aware how to closely read both the
novels.
The first person perspective gives one an in depth access to the thoughts of the narrator, be this the
author themself in some cases or an integral character. Ruth is the the narrator of Housekeeping ,

13. Psychological Analysis of Skipping School
Psychological Analysis of Skipping School Education is what survives when what has been learned
has been forgotten. (Skinner) Skipping school and class among students at Glebe Collegiate Institute
has become a pressing issue. It not only affects the personal education of those who skip, but the other
students and teachers around them. Burrhus Frederic Skinner knew that obtaining a healthy education
can have a great impact on someone s future. By using and applying psychological theories and
perspectives, such as B.F. Skinner s theories of operant conditioning and Milgram s theory of
obedience, the number of students skipping class can be greatly decreased, and therefore promote a
better, healthier learning environment. As mentioned above, skipping school is a real issue amongst
students that does not go without consequence. However at Glebe the only real consequence for
students that skip is a delay or set back in their education. Which in the long run could have a
damaging effect on their overall high school career. It has been found that students who miss more
than 10 days of school each year are 20% less likely to graduate and have a 25% less chance of ever
enrolling in college or university. (Time) The problem with this consequence is that it s not great
enough; students who skip do not release their personal consequences to themselves so they do not
view it as an issue. Teachers at Glebe make it too easy to miss class; they do not offer any real

17. The Allegorical Nature of The Lottery, by Shirley Jackson
Hit it! Hit it! Hit it! Don t lose your aim, because if you lose it, you lose the way. A birthday party
without a piñata just doesn t seem to be a birthday party. There s a joy that tiptoes up and takes over
the whole party when the expectation of candy, the ability for young children to handle a bat and
destroy something, and parents can mess with the little children. The element of danger and malice all
in good fun is in the air and it makes a giddy happiness that is addictive to the point where they are
giggling and laughing before they know they are or the reason why they are. Handling a bat
blindfolded while laughing hysterically is a time that nobody should miss. In The Lottery, by Shirley
Jackson, things are done the way they have always been done, even if there is no reason why. Certain
people remember where the rituals created, and certain people seem to know why they are important.
Yet tradition is important, so they continue. The Lottery is an excellent example of an allegorical short
story. Jackson uses symbolism through the description of the characters, significant objects, and the
actions in the story.
Consider two important symbols in the story the box and the stool. The postmaster, Mr. Summers,
followed by Mr. Graves, carried the three legged stool and put it in the center of the square. He set the

When a baseball is pitched, hit and flies in the air, one or more of the physical principles formulated

instead, he might have formulated all three laws of motion by the seventh inning stretch.
Pitching
Newton s First Law of Motion states that every object remains at rest or in uniform motion in a

Outfielders understand this in terms of a baseball that goes up must come down. Newton s first law
applies to the combined forces of air pressure and gravity that act upon a baseball hit in the air.
Newton s second law regarding force, mass and acceleration applies to how high and far the ball is hit.
Outfielders learn to gauge the overall distance of fly balls just before the ball reaches the height of its
arc. Exceptional outfielders have the ability to make the same calculations as the baseball begins
rising when hit. An outfielder might realize the distance between his location and projected the arc of
the ball make it impossible to catch certain balls on the fly. Outfielders use Newton s second law to
get in position and field or catch fly balls.
Base Running
Base runners make calculations based on all three of Newton s laws of motion∂, whether attempting to
reach base on a hit or steal a base. Hitters set in motion toward first base and simultaneously calculate
the speed of a ground ball or the distance of a fly ball. Based on the second law, the hitter might elect
to hold at first or continue running for extra bases. Proficient base stealers use Newton s third law to
calculate the time it takes a ball thrown by a fielder or outfielder to reach the targeted base. Hall of

A Show That Changed The American Society
How has Oprah Winfrey affected others? Oprah Winfrey moved many people and changed how some

attitude on the Oprah Winfrey Show. It s almost showtime at the Rosemont horizon. One of Chicago s
most cavernous arenas is filled to the brim for a Lionel Richie concert. Suddenly an agitated murmur
echoes through the hall (Most Talked about tv host 5). A star has been spotted amidst the Richie
worshippers. As word of the celebrity sighting spreads, the crowds murmur swells to a loud rhythmic
chant, OPRAH! OPRAH! OPRAH! Finally Oprah Winfrey is coaxed into hopping onto a chair. She
waved vigorously and crowd erupts into a minute long ovation. Oprah Winfrey has indeed arrived.
For some people holding the same position in their career for a long time signifies success. In
television however, it is necessary to move on to bigger and better things. With all of her experience
and success so far, she began to dream bigger. She wanted to host a show by herself but where? She
felt cared for and natural in Baltimore where she grew up, but it was time to move on. Despite the
advice of co workers Oprah accepted a job as host of A.M Chicago with a $200,000 a year salary and

sucking freak. Poncelets disposition is that of a sixth grade student. He is pushy, arrogant, curses a lot,
and is always lonely.
Although the film also shows how a man like him can become soft, and then actually seem like a
normal human being. Poncelet is also inspired by great leaders of their time, like Hitler and Martin
Luther King Jr. He was a killer and blamed most of his actions on the happenings of his life. Though
he was redempted he was killed by lethal injection. Lethal injection is a method of capital punishment,
by which a convicted criminal is injected with a deadly dose of barbiturates through an intravenous
tube inserted into someone s arm.
This procedure is similar tot he method that professionals following when administering anesthetics.
The poison in the injection first will calm all the muscles in the body, then the second shot will take
out the lungs, while the third shot then takes out the heart. Lethal injection was adopted by several
American states in 1980. The first use was debated over

21. Sound Intensity In Crickets
The Effect of Sound Intensity and Type on the Foraging Time of the House Cricket, Acheta
domesticus. Brett Tung, 2017, Ecology (BIO 211), University of Puget Sound.
The topic of interest was how instincts and perceptions affect the foragers through the ecology of fear.
The aim was to look at if sound intensity and/ or sound type affects the foraging time of common
house crickets. This was to see how foragers overall would react to a threat of predation (the sound).
Using a simple maze and a speaker we looked at two different types of sound as well as a control the
sound types consisted of a Bluebird and a 1000 Hz tone and a tone at 70 dBA. The run time was
recorded by how long it took for the cricket to get from a start line to a food source in the presence of
the sounds or lack of. It was found that together the sound type and intensity had a significant effect
on the foraging time of the crickets. Separately the sound type had no significant effect but the
different intensities did have an effect.

how they use it in predator avoidance (Moiseff et al. 1978), but invertebrates in general lack the depth
of research they deserve as such crucial aspects of the environment (Morley et al. 2014). Looking at

22. Oedipus Rex Role Of Fate
Over the centuries, people have pondered over the influence divine or diabolical power and how free
an individual is in making choices that are their very own. The ancient Greeks acknowledged the role
of Fate in their daily lives as a terrifying and unstoppable force. The messages of prophecies often
times offered the questioner incomplete, evasive answers that both enlightened and darkened the tragic
hero s near future. Writers such a Sophocles questioned the power of the prophecies and the power
they had to convey the will of the gods and moral choice. Oedipus actions are matched by his over
confidence and impulsion to make him prey to the very fate he wishes to avoid. His desperate escape
of fate arises from the attempt to live without committing heinous offenses of the prophecies provided
of him killing his father and marrying his mother. In lines 341 347, Teiresias enforces the role of Fate
by saying, Well it will come what will, though I be mute[...]I have no more to say, storm as though
willst, and give the reign to all thy pent up rage. Translated, Teiresias insists that regardless of what
Oedipus says or does, fate will follow him and play its way out. Although it can be fought that
Oedipus chose to follow every action that led to his tragic fall, he did not ... Show more content on

In Planet of Slums, Davis starts off by pointing out the fact that those living in cities accounts for
more than half of the world population. He also mentions that perhaps for the first time in history the
urban population of the earth will outnumber the rural. He goes on to describe this process with a
somewhat negative statement titled back to dickens (Davis 11). How this new urban order comes with

27. Thinking Is A Way That People Make Decisions
Thinking Thinking is a way that people make decisions. They think in black and white and don t like
the gray areas. Thinkers tend to be task oriented, brief, and businesslike (Thinking vs. feeling, n.d.).
People who prefer thinking over feeling prefer to form their opinions after thoroughly analyzing
problems. They try to understand assumptions and figure out what could be the consequences of
actions before they get to them. Their main concern is how decisions will affect the bottom line.
Thinkers like debates because they believe it brings issues to the table and the group can talk them out
and come to conclusions. They expect other people s arguments to build to a conclusion and not just
be a ramble. They try to treat everybody equally, but also use their authority when determining how
new things will be implemented (Hammer, 2015). They can come off as cold because they don t
consider other people s emotions when making decisions (Collins, n.d.). By having this kind of
outlook, it can cause many problems. Sometimes thinkers are too focused on supporting their own
position and don t listen to their colleagues. Thinkers can sometimes are too aggressive in stating their
opinions or asking questions that come off as attacking others. They can also be thought of as failing
to appreciate the hard work and effort that other people have put into projects. To help thinkers get
along and be productive in the workplace, thinkers can look for a common ground so that both sides of

Shooting a Sweep Single From beginners to Olympic Champions, the sweep single is a trenchant
takedown used by all types of wrestlers. It really is a shot that everyone can use no matter the wrestler
s size, shape, or skill level. There are many different variations to this wrestling move with countless
set ups and finishes to it. To successfully complete the sweeping single, a wrestler must focus on
creating a variety of movements that lead to the actual shot which can then be finished to score the
two point takedown.
Before a wrestler can ever shoot a sweep single, they first have to get ahold of the opponent by
attacking certain points of the body. In order to obtain ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
To begin taking the shot the wrestler must first lower their level. This is an intrinsic part in the whole
process. Usually, the wrestler who is lower in height will win the battle, which is the same with many
other contact sports. The attacking wrestler will lower his level to become more powerful and also to
avoid the opponent s upper body defense. The attacking wrestler will then drive off of their back leg
and penetrate into their opponent. This particular shot is called a sweeping single for two reasons. The
sweeping part comes in because as the attacking wrestler is penetrating in, the will windshield wipe
their feet around their opponent in order to get behind them. The second reason is the single part,
which means the attacking wrestler will grab one leg instead of two. After the wrestler is in deep on
their sweeping single shot, they can begin to finish the

30. Winter Chill Research Paper
Temperature conditions are critical in determining sufficient winter chill exposure. However, the
process is physiological and likely to be driven by other, yet undetermined, processes (Dennis, 1994).
Hormonal controls have been suggested as the mechanism, with early research proposing the process
is controlled by a balance of growth promoters and inhibitors (Amen, 1968). More recent research 4
suggests that temperature cues specific hormones, such as indoleacetic acid, gibberellins, abscisic
acid, and ethylene, which then control dormancy breaking (Seeley, 1990; Horvath, 2009). To date, the
causal biological drivers of dormancy remain elusive to researchers (Dennis, 1994). Resultantly, the
physiological response is commonly estimated by temperature based models (e.g. Weinberger, 1950;
Richardson et al., 1974; Shaltout and Unrath, 1983; Fishman et al., 1987; Linvill, 1990; Cesaraccio et
al., 2004). ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Different species require different threshold amounts of chill to break dormancy. Frequently, these
chill requirements are defined according to different chill models resulting in chill thresholds reported
in different units (e.g. Table 2). For instance, Ghariani and Stebbins (1994) reported chill thresholds
for 43 apple and 38 pear varieties using the Utah model (measured in chill units); Zhang and Taylor
(2011) determined chill requirement for Sirora pistachio using the Dynamic model (measured in chill
portions) and; Baldocchi and Wong (2008) used thresholds defined in chill hours for 18 fruit and nut
varieties to investigate future chill conditions in California. Cherry specific thresholds are contained in
