1. An Essay On Responsibility
Writing an essay on the topic of responsibility can be both challenging and rewarding. The
difficulty arises from the broad and multifaceted nature of the concept itself. Responsibility
encompasses various aspects of life, including personal, social, and professional dimensions.
Crafting an insightful and coherent essay requires a deep understanding of the subject, careful
consideration of its implications, and the ability to convey complex ideas in a clear and organized
manner.
One challenge lies in defining responsibility, as it can differ based on cultural, societal, and
individual perspectives. The writer must navigate through these diverse viewpoints, providing a
comprehensive overview without oversimplifying or losing focus. Additionally, addressing the
dynamic nature of responsibility poses another hurdle. The concept evolves in different contexts,
and the essay must reflect these nuances to offer a well-rounded exploration.
Moreover, striking the right balance between personal reflection and objective analysis is crucial.
The essay should not only delve into theoretical frameworks but also incorporate real-life
examples to illustrate the significance of responsibility. This blend of theory and practice requires
careful research, critical thinking, and the ability to connect abstract concepts to concrete
experiences.
Furthermore, tackling the ethical dimensions of responsibility adds complexity to the writing
process. Discussing the moral obligations that come with being responsible involves navigating
through ethical dilemmas, conflicting values, and the gray areas of decision-making. Presenting a
nuanced perspective while avoiding oversimplification or moral absolutism requires a delicate
touch.
In conclusion, writing an essay on responsibility demands a thoughtful approach, a thorough
understanding of the topic, and the ability to navigate its complexities. It involves synthesizing
diverse perspectives, incorporating real-world examples, and addressing the ethical dimensions
of the concept. While challenging, successfully crafting such an essay can lead to a deeper
understanding of responsibility and its implications in various aspects of life.

2. The Court Of Justice Of The European Union ( Cjeu )
This essay advances the position that the quotation under discussion is, with all due
respect to the Author, entirely incorrect. It is the counter argument of this essay that
the Courts of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) have abused their interpretive
jurisdiction, and, in places, have even done violence to the very wording of the
Treaty itself. Art 34 is not worded in a complicated nor in an especially controversial
way. It simply states: Quantitative restrictions on imports and all measures having
equivalent effect shall be prohibited between Member States This phrase measures
having equivalent effect (MEEs) (to Quantitative Restrictions on imports) is the
phrase in the article which has given rise to so much political controversy and
debate, both within the CJEU and also amongst academics in the field of EU law.
Even quantitative restriction (QR), the scope of which concept the rest of the Article
appears to hang on, is not explicitly (or, in fact, at all: not even with the standard QRs
include...[non exhaustive list]...) defined in the Treaty, but the CJEU has held that:_
the prohibition on quantitative restrictions covers measures which amount to a total
or partial restraint of, according to the circumstances, imports, exports, or goods in
transit It is, perhaps, noting that goods had previously been defined by the CJEU as
anything capable of being valued in money and bought and sold _, otherwise that in
itself could form a contentious aspect of this
3. The Conscious Good Of Unconscious Evil Essay
The Conscious Good of Unconscious Evil Questioning the world as observers and
contemplating what constitutes a moral code versus following the norm play a major
role in self growth. The frustrating contradictions of one s self aware mind begin to
unwind into its own understanding of what s real and the illusion. Illusions can be
underlined with beliefs, faith and perception of someone s own experiences and
mistakes. The Mistakes that are made throughout a lifetime are essential to
understanding between right and wrong. They give Justice and the injustice actions
the unclear and incoherent meaning of good from evil. Revelations made through
learning from mistakes sometimes can come in the most inopportune times. Reading
the story A Good Man Is Hard to Find Flannery O Conner gives a taste of the
hypocrisy and selfishness of what the subconscious part of humanity can be. The
lifeless taste of evil The Misfit twisted with the rudimentary philosophical good of the
grandmother foreshadows humanity as a whole and independently. The story shows
us the problematic mechanics in belief and faith with the blunt truth being as evil as
it can be, due to lack of understanding of ones self. The grandmother is projected as a
symbol of conscious good with the intentional norm humanity strives to be. Making
her position throughout the story full of wisdom and righteousness through her
illusion of what it means to be a lady. Only through a life threatening experience with

would change the uncomfortable glasses into high quality ones. It was evident that
the two persons in the manager role behaved differently and used distinctive tactics.
Hence, we could choose the suitable influence tactics in consistent with the occasions,
characteristics of opponents. Apart from the tactics, I realized that it is essential to
first determine the goals and needs before engaging in negotiations. Comparisons and
connections between theory and practice Throughout the lecture and my prior
knowledge, I identified that the influence tactics are obviously relevant to
negotiation and they can be utilized in a variety of ways in negotiation. Looking
back the activity, it enabled me to have a better understanding of these important
techniques and skills as certain tactics my opponents and I may use were examined
at the negotiating table. I only used the tactics that I was familiar with and I had no
awareness of using other tactics such as avoidance. Before the activity, I assumed
that I could spend a large amount of time trying to persuade the opponent to agree to
the desired outcomes, however, the manager in the first round was direct

On the other hand, if the multipath scattering is adequate, then the numerous sub
streams are all scattered marginally in an unexpected way, since they start from
diverse transmit receiving antennas that are situated at different points. By utilizing
modern sign preparing, these slight contrasts in scrambling permit the sub streams to
be distinguished and recouped. As a result, the unavoidable multipath is abused to
give an extremely valuable spatial parallelism that is utilized to significantly enhance
data transmission rates.
b.Array Architecture Massive MIMO demands uniquely large base station arrays.

7. Optimism And Pessimism In The Great Gatsby
I believe that the three texts that I have studied contained moments of optimism and
pessimism which in turn have shaped my opinion of the general vision and
viewpoint. This alludes to the feelings and emotions portrayed through the omniscient
camera in The King s Speech , the morally inclined narrator Nick Caraway in The
Great Gatsbyand the protagonist in the novel Foster . I was very intrigued to find out
more about these societies and the vision the author/director hoped to convey.
The Great Gatsby opens in the boom years in the summer of 1922, commonly
known as the Jazz Age . The opening is conveyed as a mix of optimism and
pessimism. At first we are introduced to Nick Caraway,

In T.K.S, Bertie faced a barbaric upbringing which he solemnly shared with Logue.
This is evident when he revealed how cruel his nanny was, tunelessly singing She
pinch me so I d cry, and be sent away at once, then she wouldn t feed me, far far
away. (speaks) Took three years for my parents to notice. As you can imagine, it
caused some stomach problems. This left me feeling much more sympathetic
towards Bertie and further implemented my pessimistic opinion of the portrayal of
children in the past. This is also seen in T.G.G as Pammy, Daisy s daughter is only
seen once during the entire 1920 s novel and we realise that she, like Bertie, had
nannies who took care off her rather than her parents. A sense of negativity is also
conveyed towards children here as Gatsby ,when first introduced to Pammy, was
described as looking at the child with surprise. I don t think he had ever believed in
its existence. she is described as an it and Gatsby then realises that he can t repeat
the past with Daisy and that his obsessive longing for her was a waste of time. I
believe that this pessimistic feeling was a factor in his volatility towards Tom in
the Plaza. Similarly in Foster , Mildred like a predator, pounced on the innocent
protagonist and questioned her about the Kinsella s personal affairs such as where
does the old dog sleep, Is she allowed to spend.... . Mildred then inconsiderately
informed the little girl of the Kinsella s boy s passing, stating sure didn t he follow
that auld hound of theirs into the slurry tank and drown...... The soft hearted fool. in
a callous tone. Personally I feel that each of the narrators set out to portray children s
lives in a negative
8. A Characterization of Revenge in Literature
Revenge is a centerpiece of most conflicts within literature. In The Oresteia, All the
King s Men, and The Aeneid, there are three modes through which revenge can be
exacted: premeditated dishonorable revenge, premeditated honorable revenge, and
unplanned agitated revenge. These sometimes violent acts of emotion can reveal the
purpose of a character as well as the role the character plays in either developing or
resolving the many conflicts present within his story. Characters who exact revenge
upon others purposefully and dishonorably are typically antagonists who create new
conflicts through their actions. In Agamemnon, when Clytemnestra coil[s]
[Agamemnon] round and round in... the robes of doom, and then... strike[s] him...
twice, she successfully takes revenge upon her husband for slaughtering their
daughter, Iphigenia, to Artemis in order to sail towards Troy (Agamemnon 1403
1405). However, Agamemnon is still considered innocent as he acts as he does
because Zeus has taken away his wits by ordering Agamemnon to vanquish the
Trojans; Agamemnon kills his daughter simply to follow Zeus s orders (Lloyd Jones
197). Thus, when Clytemnestra kills this innocent man, she is performing a
dishonorable act of murder, creating a conflict between the queen and two of her
children, Orestes and Electra. Another character who takes revenge in a premeditated
dishonorable fashion in Tiny Duffy, the Lieutenant Governor of Louisiana in All the
King s Men, who told Adam about Willie Talos s
9. European Expansion And Colonization
The motives for the Europeans for expansion and colonization in the new word was a
new way of life and exploration. The search for new things and ocean travel was
intriguing to the Europeans. Though the conditions in Europe were changing the
Europeans thought that they could find better things overseas. The Europeans
expanded their capabilities for growth and colonization. The biggest resistance of the
Europeans was the Indians. The Indians did not like the thought of foreigners taking
over their land and crops. The Indians often battled with the Europeans killing them
before they could take over. Maryland was used as a retreat for English Catholics.
The Indians in Maryland were more worried about the other tribes that surrounded the

Do Not Use Open Office To Produce RTF Files!
An exception to the rule that any word processor or text editor can produce RTF files
is the Open Office word processor, which can read RTF files and in theory also create
them. However, in practice Open Office creates RTF files that are often horribly
garbled when one next opens the file (either you, if you edit the file again; or the
recipient to whom you have sent your RTF file), regardless of what word processor
or text editor is used to do so.
Therefore studentsshold NOT use Open Office when creating RTF files for any
UTA classwork. One option is to use the Microsoft Officesoftware on all university
computers, or (for Windows users) to copy/paste your file into WordPad, which
can save files in RTF format. Another is to use instead of Open Office the free (open
source) Libreoffice Suite (an improved version of Open Office created by a group of
Open Office s original development team, on which RTF works considerably better)
or the AbiWord word processor, an excellent product that also produces proper RTF
11. Folly, Temptation And Death In Homer s The Odyssey
The Odyssey by Homer is a great text that manipulates the skill of storytelling
bringing out the meaning of being human, the spiritual and physical homecoming. It
is an archetypal epic expedition essential for understanding ourselves and other
modern texts following the same pattern. The text brings out the ancient Greek
beliefs and customs that are essential in studying Western Literature through the
evaluation of different characters, and the themes manifested are essential in
establishing a good foundation for any literature student. The themes therein such as
leadership skills, folly, retaliation, mythology, death, ogres, temptation seduction,
deceit, and warfare make the text an essential student companion in the quest of
comprehending literature. First, the themes of Folly, Temptation and Death are
essential to freshmen in understanding everyday life. Folly contributes to the reckless
behavior evident in men; temptation makes one lose focus on their objective, in this
case, Odysseuss homecoming (Byrant, 1872, p.237, line 79). The folly in Odysseus s
crew make them ignore the warning from the captain consequently losing their
shipmates, and the suitors despise the eagles warning on the return of Odysseus

As such, the theme being universal, could as well be applicable in the western
culture making the text an essential material for the freshmen to have an
understanding of the power of love and the far it can push individuals to defend it.
Inasmuch as Odyssey stays away from his wife Penelope for a long time, the love
for her motivates him to work hard to his homecoming, overcoming major hurdles
(Byrant, 1872, p.136 line 695). His loyalty made him to persevere the challenges to
go back to join the love of his life thereby giving him courage and hope throughout
the war that lasted for ten years (Byrant, 1872, p. 247 line
12. The Role Of External Environment On Firms
The influence of external environment on firms activities and survival has been
extensively investigated over the last several years (Barkema, Bell, Pennings, 1996;
Fagre Wells Jr, 1982; Holburn Zelner, 2010; Kostova Roth, 2002). In corporate
governance literature, external constituents, such as, government, institutional
investors, security analyst, etc. exert pressure on firms so that they act in the interest
of key stakeholders. While financial stakeholders have been given more attention by
scholars, non financial stakeholders have received relatively less attention. Although
firms have been under increasing media scrutiny in recent years, the role of media in
influencing the legitimacy of multinational firms in emerging economies has been
understudied. This paper addresses how news mediaaffects MNE performance in the
host country by influencing subsidiary managers ties with host country business and
political environments.
Scholars have been attempting to unearth the effects of media on the public for quite
a few years. Researchers have recognized that the effects of media are distinctive and
indirect. The media has been so influential in the recent year that it can influence
people about what to think (Wanta, Golan, Lee, 2004). According to McCombs and
Shaw (1972), the most important influence of media is the agenda setting perspective
about issues that are deemed most important. Therefore, media campaigns that are

these stories and they often work in conjunction with literature via adaptations.

The narrative device of Project Insight correlates with fears over domestic spying
and in film this is taken to the next level as it s revealed to be part of a larger plot of
the movie s villain Alexander Pierce to kill thousands. The idea of control over the
national security apparatus is weaved throughout the movie and is one of the central
themes throughout Captain America: The Winter Soldier , and I agree with the belief
that the narrative neglects the pertinent question of whether or not we should even
have and use these technologies to begin with (Rosenberg). Another point from the
article that really digs in at some of the failings of Captain America: The Winter
Soldier relates back to the concept of trust in the main characters. We are supposed
to be fine with Fury s choice to shoot Pierce because we trust him. And when Steve,
Romanoff, and Fury send the Project Insight helicarriers into deadly crashes, we are
not supposed to be bothered by the massive, indiscriminate loss of life they just
caused both because they are our heroes, and because the movie tells us that
everyone on board is a bad guy. Captain America: The Winter Soldier at least avoids
the destruction so many blockbusters visit on major cities with

advertisements of its Xbox. Microsoft, one of the most successful companies in the
world, is using its innovations to take over the machine gaming market. Sony and
Nintendo have been the gaming powerhouses for many years now, but are now
starting to become overshadowed by the success of Microsofts Xbox. As long as
gaming machines have been available, teenage boys have been the targets of the
companies. One new strategy that Microsoft is using is the targeting of all ages and
both sexes of consumers. While other companies continue to stay in the young kids

This fact has really hurt the competitors. Microsoft has been smart with its
advertisements. They have made many simple television, magazine, and internet
ads that have targeted all audiences. These advertisements do not use expensive
celebrities, but they use what the segment for each game is interested in. They
also relate the advertisements for certain games to the television show, or the
magazine the target segment watches or reads. For example, on MTV, a station
that is watched by a great number of teenage boys, an Xbox commercial came on
emphasizing hot girls who are featured in a game. This tells men of all ages, but
primarily teenagers, that if you buy this Xbox game, not only can you have fun for
days playing it, but you can also see beautiful women while doing it. Another
example is during an NFL football game, a commercial came on promoting a new
football game for the Xbox. Marketing strategies such as these are what Microsoft
has used for years to become the top company that they are.
Relatively speaking, Microsoft uses many of the same strategies for its promotions as
Sony and Nintendo.
Product positioning is the most difficult aspect of Microsoft s marketing strategy for
the Xbox. Consumers know that Microsoft is a great company and most computer
owners have positive brand images of Microsoft. This really helps Microsoft get a
jumpstart on their new product. But, the hard task comes when Microsoft
15. Gender Relations During The Jacobean Period
Deconstructing Gender Relations Gender in the Jacobean Period was approached
differently than gender in the 18th century. One can use the Jacobean period play
Measure for Measure by William Shakespeare and the 18th century play The Beaux
Stratagem by George Farquhar to examine gender relations during the two periods.
The plays demonstrate how women were represented in society and what societal
expectations were at the time. The way women navigated their own sexuality,
finances, and power relation s improved noticeably from the Jacobean Period to the
18th century. During the Jacobean Period women were not allowed to preform in
theatres; all of the players were men and boys (Spear 13). Because of the violent
nature of theatres women didn t attend plays as Groundlings and few could afford
to sit above in the covered seats above. The theatre was a place for corruption and
immorality and women were looked down upon during the Jacobean Period for
attending performances in playhouses around London. The theatre was a harsh
place where audience members were tightly packed in. They would hiss, shout, and
throw rotten vegetables at actors they disliked or applaud and clap for those they
approved of (Spear 14). The play Measure for Measureshows the powerlessness of
women during the Jacobean Period. The femalecharacters in the play are helpless in
determining their fates. The central female character in Measure for Measure,
Isabella, has been both idealized as an ideal woman
16. Abnormal Behavior In Gone Girl
A recent movie I watched that featured abnormal behavior was Gone Girl. The
movie involves a wife that fakes her own death and sets up her husband to make it
look like he murdered her. Throughout the movie and characters it includes a
variety of cheating, murder and deception. I feel movies involving this kind of
behavior are so popular because I believe we live in a society that is drawn into the
fascination by out of the norm behavior. It adds drama to any movie, book or real
life experience. Often people find themselves intrigued by why someone would act a
certain way or what caused a specific type of behavior. We live in a world that is
constantly judging others by their behavior and actions, it gives people things to

Dr. Hoppin discussed four main responsibilities in guiding reviewer in the
reviewing process of scientific paper. When reviewing a scientific article, the role
of reviewers is to shear their experience, knowledge, time and provide constructive
criticisms and suggestions. The reviewer has to be motivated by providing
suggestions for improving the article to be more educational, informative and useful
for clinical practice. Also, a good review of a scientific paper requires from the
reviewer to be scientific expertise which include awareness and a mastery of the
scientific literature. This process needs from the reviewer to has experience and
personal background. If the scientific article outside the reviewer expertise; he/she
should refuse to review the scientific paper. Moreover, according to Dr. Hoppin, the
reviewer needs to have helpful attitude. He/she should seek to be respectful,
positive, patient and objective when offering comments and suggestion to authors to
improve the scientific article. The reviewer role is to consult and advice not to
judge. In addition, before reviewing an article, the reviewer needs to schedule
enough time and attention to review the paper before the deadline. The reviewer s
level of experience, length of article and complexity of paper can affect the amount
of time required to complete specific task. {{370}}

blames his success with his education and the fact that it made him more important.
He believes that his education made him a better person and someone who fit in with

The Iran Contra affair is historically defined as the Reagan administration scandal
that involved the sale of arms to Iran in exchange for its efforts to secure the release
of hostages in Lebanon and the redirection of the proceeds of those sales to the

began their efforts to retaliate against the Socialist Sandinista Regime, American
government forces stepped in to support the Contra cause in a hope to support the
world wide elimination of Communism. To understand the entire history of the

Palmer Raids. In his 1920 forum, The Case against the Reds , Palmer defends
America from the communists declaring that the communists are ...preaching of
anarchy and sedition...advising the defiance of law... and encouraging the destruction
of property. This primary document written by Palmer, set communists up as
criminals stating that robbery, not war, is the ideal of communism... and that it is
...the American Government[s]... job to prevent this . By gaining support of fellow
Americans, Palmer helps further exploit the communist party and extract fear into the
American minds. Because of this red scare, Americans have historically grown to
become weary of communism. Under the Truman Doctrine in 1947, American forces
were granted permission to intervene in any foreign relations so long as they focused
on the breakdown of communist forces. Americans have had a long history of being
involved with communist affairs around the world long before their support of the

it pushed American officials to become further emerged in the battle despite its lack

As an Old English professor for 35 years, it is clear that Tolkien had a passion for
Anglo Saxon history (Collier). His writings on Beowulf is critically acclaimed and
shows Tolkien s enriched knowledge of the time period and the Old English style of
poetry. Even further, his love for the English culture and literature can clearly be seen
in his own fictional work, mainly The Lord of The Rings. Throughout this book,
Tolkien uses various Old Englishwords for places and people in Middle earth.
Furthermore, he honors a rich Anglo Saxon history through the Rohirrim and their
similar culture of war. Lastly, Tolkien mirrors the epic poem Beowulf
as he draws from
the characters and lines of the historical piece. While connecting the style and history

Beowulf was the most important work of scholarship that Tolkien read and is what
inspired many scenes and themes in The Lord of the Rings. When analyzing the
influence of the Old English poem, it is important to understand Tolkien s
perspective on the poem which explains why it had such a major impact on his life
and his writing. In his piece Beowulf: The Monsters and the Critics Tolkien
explains that his love for the poem is based upon the style and beauty of the poem.
He states that Beowulf should be known world wide due to how the monster s and
dragons are depicted, or its everlasting quality. In his final paragraph Tolkien tosses
aside the historical value that the poem has, or the fact that it was written at such
an early time in history. He instead explains that it would still have power had it
been written in some time or place unknown and without posterity, if it contained
no name that could now be recognized (Tolkien 20). This passage summarize his
thesis that Beowulf s importance is often misrepresented. Tolkien s inspiration and
passion for the poem comes from how it s preserved from a day already changing
and passing, a time that has now for ever vanished, swallowed in oblivion (Tolkien
20). Tolkien s use of Anglo Saxon history in The Lord of the Rings was a way to
revive the culture so it would not be lost. In this essay, Tolkien is highlighting this
point, explaining that Beowulf continues to preserve the rich culture of Old England
due to it s aesthetic qualities and profound appeal (Tolkien

One s perception on the problems in the society changes as new perspective are
introduced, and the consequence of an altered perspective results in different
outcomes both positive and negative. The film, The Matrix produced by the
Wachowski Brothers in 1999 and the poem Suicide in The Trench by Siegfried
Sassoon explore this concept of altering perspective. The matrixuses the theme The
power of authority to manipulate to challenge each individual s perception on what
they consider to be the reality and explored the outcome that follows after one s

perspective from glorifying war to realising its full horror. In the first stanza, a
positive perception on war was established through the use of emotive language such
as Joy whistled and grinned . The first stanza established the original perception of

loneliness or an end, and trench represent somewhere filthy and confined. Sassoon
used winter trench to symbolise the harsh reality of the war, the depression of the
young soldiers and their belief that they were confined and that there were nowhere

Introduction
This assignment is an attempt to discuss two different types of therapy, cognitive
behavioural therapy and person centered therapy and highlight some important
similarities and differences between them.
Cognitive behavioural therapy
John Watson (1957) believed psychologyshould be concerned with the observable,
as behaviour could be measured and influenced (McLeod, 2008). Skinner, (1953)
cited in McLeod (2008), believed a person has a repitior of possible responses to a
stimuli and they exhibits the response that is reinforces or rewarded (operant
conditioning).

Cognitive distortions are overgeneralisation, dichotomous thinking and
personalisation (McLeod 2008). These distortions reduce the persons ability to
process information (Mcleod 2008). Research suggests that cognitive distortions are
part of the way everybody handles difficult situations, therefore should they be
regarded as causes of emotional problems? (Mcleod, Pg.145).
CBT is concerned with actions that produce change using a structured program, table

The gap between medieval times and current times contains so much change. It s
all so drastically different, but that point in history is one of great interest to many
people. The ways of living are interesting because they were so different and at
times unorthodox, but it is something that inspires many creators. The medieval
times is made of a different dialect, different standards of living, and a different
choice of sports. In the 15th century, people spoke very differently. The dialect
contained words not often used today and rearranged phrases. Quite often people
would address others as sir or lady followed by their names. As an example from
Knight s Tale Chaucer says referring to William, Sir Ulrick. What are you wearing to

Analysis of the Political and Social Consequences for Iran of the 1979 Revolution
When Ayatollah Khomeini ousted Mohammed Reza Shah and ended the Pahlavi
dynasty in the revolution of 1979 many political and social consequences took place.
These consequences were due to vital decisions made by him but also due to
repercussions of the revolution itself. With Iran being dominated predominantly by
monarchies for the past several decades with the most recent being the Pahlavi
dynasty the public had been through an era of radical yet superficial modernisation
and westernisation . Khomeini entered his rule with an extremist Islamic rule that
was non existent under the previous Shahs and this was bound ... Show more content

With a country backed by a 99% Shi ite population he moved the country in the
direction of a theocracy. This is one of the major political consequences of the 79
revolution and it meant that over time Khomeini was able to abolish the Shahs
regime, eradicating many of the top members of his regime, and create an Islamic
Republic Party in 1979, and eventually make this the state party. The Ayatollah had to
deal with foreign influence within the country. The Shah had welcomed western
influence into the country but Khomeini disliked this dependence and his revolution
ended up in a bitter quarrel with western powers such as the US and Britain. The
quarrel rose to new levels when members of the Iranian public took American
embassy workers hostage and were not released until 1980. The consequence was a
ruined diplomatic tie with the Carter government and western powers alike.
The Ayatollah destroyed the good relations with the west but he also made himself
unpopular with various other Arab states. Anwar Sadat who believed that the west
was the way to move on was opposed to the Ayatollah s view of a completely
isolated Islamic republic. Sadat even accepted Mohammed Pahlavi as an exile but
he was forced to leave because of his health. Khomeini s views were popular to the
people especially the poverty stricken rural community of Iran but not to other leaders
in the region.

28. The Imbalances Agriculture in China
Imagine that you are studying at a pleasant university in the countryside. Every
day a professor on tour comes and gives fascinating speech on agriculture. Sounds
nice, right? Before long, this kind of new rural university might be popular in
China, for the development of education and agriculture as well as a solution of
too fast urbanization. With 1.4 billion people to feed, China is now the largest and
maybe the most imbalanced agricultural country. Per capita incomes in rural
regions vary a lot. Some farm to make their fortunes, while others farm to live.
Moreover, tractors and chemical fertilizer produces fine crop as well as great
disaster. In fact, the negative effect is even profounder. For example, hardly can
you turn soil polluted by fertilizer into what it used to be. Its micro structure has
been damaged irreversibly. In some areas, people are finding their yield absolutely
depends on chemicals. Something must be done to save the COUNTRY. As a
result of tech development, students are liberated to go to cities for further
education, which is commonly believed to be an access to white collar. Bad news
is, however, no job is available when they graduate. Obviously, that is a joke to
them. Worse still, cities are expanding and farmland is decreasing as fast as it can.
And the result of arable land loss is that more people are pushed into urban slums.
The urban area in BTH (Beijing Tianjin Hebei region) increased by 71% between

Ever since its creation America has always been seen as the icon for peace and
prosperity; however, just like every other nation in the world, America has

It was after several moves starting in the Midwest and ending in the Westcoast that
Jones decided that the Peoples Temple needed to emigrate from San Francisco to
Guyana in order to escape what he believed to be creeping fascism in the United
States. Jones was a Marxist after all so there was always that need to rebel against
America and its capitalistic ideas (Russell 39). And the communist utopia that
Jones and the Peoples Temple had created (Jonestown) began to flourish. It had
seemed that the utopia Jones had always envisioned was now reality. The members
of the Peoples Temple began to feel at home because it was a place where anyone
no matter what race, gender, or even age could live in perfect harmony with one
another. In fact during its first phase of existence it could actually be considered a
proper socialist community from the point of view of a true political scientist
(Latson). And it was not until the late 1970s that Jim Jones and Jonestown began to
crumble which could only be explained by Jones unusual metamorphosis. Nobody
really knows for sure what happened to him when he and the Peoples Temple had left
the United States to build their community in Guyana, but it would be something that
would end up destroying not only himself but everything he and the Peoples Temple
had created. In 1978 it had become evident that the

Machiavelli s view of human nature in The Prince
To understand Machiavelli and his opinions, the era which Machiavelli lived should
be known. Before Machiavelli, Medieval was just finished by renaissance. Medieval
was the era for church which people were under the God s rules control and church
was the only way to get rest but after the renaissance human and human activities
have taken into consideration. West has started to seek a way to understand human
without idea of God. Renaissance is spread out from Italy. It was the heart of
renaissance because it was the only country that there was still a connection with old
times and they have carried these old intellectual accumulations to that day. So Italy
was different from other European states. There was no feudal pressure as other
states because Italy has been managed by individualistic republics. This difference in
management made Italy s cultural and economic dynamism alive. However this
dynamism was eclipsed by the wars around Italy. Lots of state around Italy was using
mercenaries and this was making the environment more insecure. There was no

32. Nature s Response To Nature In Poetry
Three poets have responded to each others poems. Christopher Marlowe, Sir Walter
Raleigh, and William Carlos Williams have said there opinions in nature s role in
providing for humanity. Marlowe had a very gentle approach with nature, while
Raleigh and Williams have more of a negative and abrasive approach toward nature s
role in providing. The three poets have came and showed their opinions through three
individual poems.
Marlowe, who wrote The passionate Shepherd to his Love , has a very positive
connection to nature. In his poem he says A cap of flowers, and a kirtle
embroidered all with leaves of myrtle. This means how he wants the kirtle
embroidered all with the finest leaves of myrtle for his love. The way that he
describes nature shows his great interest at the time with nature. The way he uses
gentle and tranquil words to describe nature shows his soft relationship. All of the
gifts that tries to persuade his love with all have a relation to nature. For example,
the gown that he offers will be made from the finest wool from a pretty lamb.
Another example is how Marlowe talks about how he is going to make her a bed of
roses, yet another reference to nature to persuade his love in coming to be with him.
In addition, Marlowe s structure of the poem is also very important to the meaning of
the poem. Marlowe s poem has six stanzas that each contain four lines. The poem
meter is stressed unstressed, and the rhyme scheme of the poem is AABB. In his
poem, you will also find how Marlowe uses alliteration in his poem. The alliteration
in the poem helps to describe all of the wonderful things in nature that he is trying to
persuade his love with. An example of this is when he talks about them sitting upon
the rocks and seeing the flocks. The ock repetition of consonant sound helps get the
point across that the author has a positive connection with nature and his persuasion
of his love.
Raleigh wrote The Nymph s Reply to the Shepherd . His connection toward nature
is very negative in a way. Raleigh s viewpoint on nature is very rough and abrasive
toward Marlowe. In his poem/response his says When rivers rage and rocks grow
cold. The words that he uses also show how his viewpoint on nature is very

Surveillance Systems and Studies That Should Be Prioritized by the CDC in the
Event of a Current Severe Pandemic Reflecting on the 2009 HINI influenza
pandemic discussed in class, if a more severe pandemic occurred today, then the
kinds of surveillance systems that the CDC should invoke are first and foremost to
rely on the existing surveillance systems in place. The famous Eisenhower quote that
Plans are nothing, planning is everything (Landesman Weisfuse, 2014, p. 306) bears
particular relevance to this issue. What President Eisenhower likely meant was that it
is not the particular plans in place during an emergency that are paramount, but the
process of preparing and planning for an event such that all members of the team are
aware of their specific task as well as the overall roles of the others involved and the
ultimate goal to be achieved that is most important in achieving the particular
emergency management task, especially given the uncertainty that will ultimately
ensue. In the instant case, by having an existing surveillance system in place that has
been regularly trained upon and exercised, then members have established
relationships that they can draw upon when the unexpected occurs. More
particularly, preexisting local, state, and federal influenza surveillance systems are
already in place to provide data on the location and severity of influenza for each
season. Relying on these existing foundations of data collection will help to build a

Unit 731: Epidemic Prevention and Water Purification Department of the Kwantung
Army Unit 731 was a research team under the Imperial Japanese Army during World
War II. Their main facilities were set up in 1938 in the northeastern region of China
known as Manchuria, which was under Japanese occupation at the time. Led by
Lieutenant Shiro Ishii, this unit focused on researching the usage of biological
weapons, although the use of such weapons was prohibited under the Geneva
Protocol. The research here was typically conducted on live human subjects, mostly
Chinese locals. Some of the experiments performed included infecting patients with
diseases, then vivisecting them without the use of anesthesia to study how their
internal organs had broken down from the diseases. Other experiments tested the
effects of certain environmental conditions, including extremely cold temperatures
and high pressure. The tests were not confined to the prisoners in the unit s facilities,
as the Japanese army poisoned wells and released plague carrying fleas into Chinese
cities (Frischknecht, 2003). When Japan surrendered, the soldiers at the facilities shot
the remaining prisoners, most of the buildings were destroyed, and all the researchers
were sworn to silence.... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Article 32 of the Geneva Convention Relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in
Times of War prohibits conducting any experiments on captured civilians (1949).
Although this convention was not in place at the time, and thus Japan could not have
been violating it, the fact that the nations of the world agreed to pass the convention
shortly after these events unfolded shows that the global community did not approve
of such experimentation. To help keep the researchers from thinking about the
brutality of what they were doing, the test subjects were referred to as Maruta ,
which is the Japanese word for wooden
35. Human Activity On The Natural Environment
Environmental law is a term describing the network of treaties, statutes, regulations,
and common laws addressing the effects of human activity on the natural
environment. The government is responsible for enforcing these laws and making
sure that the public is aware of the responsibility they have to ensure the safety of our
environment. Throughout this paper, the topics regarding the tragedy of the commons,
the sharing of resources, who should have access to these resources, and the
government s role in making these decisions is brought to light. Of the many issues
in our world, I believe that environmental law is put in the dark. The reason why
people do not look as closely at this as they do at gun control laws is simple...long
term effects. The public sees the effects of gun laws and equality in their community,
but when it comes to recycling and using common resources in a reusable way they
are blind to the topic. The tragedy of the commonsis an economic problem where
people will neglect the needs of other individuals and fight for their own personal
gain. For example, imagine a huge pond with a lot of fish in it. Every fisherman has
a regular fishing pole and they all average about the same catches per week. Then, a
company designs a new, more advanced fishing pole. A few fisherman try it out and
they end up catching double the amount of fish. Regardless of the fish declination in
the pond and the impact it is having on other fisherman, they continue fishing with
36. The Founders s Vision Of Political Equality And The...
Too good to be true or too hard to achieve is the writer s conclusion of how far the
United States has achieved the Founders vision of political equality, economic
opportunity, and social mobility. Throughout centuries, the American citizens and the
immigrants that moved to the United States have lived and built their lives with the
foundation of the American dream, a belief that every person will be able to grow to
fullest development as men and women [through hard work and individual effort]
(Adams XI). The dream that derived from the Founding Fathers statement that all
men are created equal, [and] they are endowed by their Creator with certain
unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness
and that the governmentis formed to protect this right (US 1776). The Founding
Fathers surely have a grand vision that the United Stateswill become a nation where
everyone will be treated equally and the only thing that separates them from their
success in life is their own effort to achieve their wildest dream; yet in reality, a
widely known fact that man is an egotistic creature who is driven by his own self
interest made it nearly impossible for the United States to adopt the Founders vision
of equality thoroughly. If one would conclude, the only way for the United States to
achieve the Founders vision of political equality, economic opportunity, and social
mobilityin full is by collective efficacy, a sacrificial method in which an

The Effect of Genetic Markers
Genetic markers don t always match physical appearance. First of all, a genetic
marker is a gene or short sequence of DNA. Since the beginning of time our
genetics have been changing constantly due to a lot of different aspects. Some
causes of change include aging. As we get older our bodies chemicals change, we
produce more and less of certain chemicals, for example; insulin. The changing of
chemicals affect our body not just on the outside, but on the inside. It affects the way
our genetic markers respond and can alter them. Some diseases are caused by a
genetic mutation, or permanent change in one or more specific genes which can be
caused by aging. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
It may be possible to pass down epigenetic changes to future generations if the
changes occur in sperm or egg cells. Most epigenetic changes that occur in sperm
and egg cells get erased when the two combine to form a fertilized egg in a process
called reprogramming. This reprogramming allows the cells of the fetus to start from
scratch and make their own epigenetic changes. However, scientists think that some
of the epigenetic changes in parents sperm and egg cells may avoid the
reprogramming process and make it through to the next generation. If this is true,
things like the food a person eats before they conceive could affect their future child.
Scientists now think epigenetics can play a role in the development of some cancers.
For instance, an epigenetic change that silences a tumor suppressor gene, such as a
gene that keeps the growth of the cell in check, could lead to uncontrolled cellular
growth. Another example might be an epigenetic change that turns off genes that
help repair damaged DNA, leading to an increase in DNA damage, which in turn,
increases cancer risk. (US, National Institutes of Health)
Another reason our genetic markers change over time is because we get diseases,
also called a genetic disorder. A genetic disorder is a disease that is caused by a
change or mutation in an individual s DNA sequence.
These mutations can be due to an error in DNA replication or due to environmental
factors, such as cigarette smoke and

assume that Changez liked it and made him want to keep the beard regardless of his
mother s opinion. However, others saw Changez s beard as a threat. After 9/11, the
beard on any Middle Eastern man was associated with the terrorist group behind the
attack, Al Qaeda s founder, Osama Bin Laden. Changez s mom statement on how he
looked like a mouse was a smilie for the mouse and rats in New York; no one wants
to see them as no one wants to see a terrorist. Changez didn t fit in anymore with
his beard and became subjected to verbal abuse by complete strangers and stares
and whispers from his co workers in Underwood Samson. However, this didn t

represents his identity and is associated with the term orientalism. Changez could
have easily chosen to wear a kurta every day instead of a beard to identify with his
Pakistani identity. However, with cultural appropriation and the exotic concept of a
kurta, it would not have been a strong enough sense of identity for Changez as a
beard naturally is.

Writing is something that comes naturally to me. I am a creative person and can
use my ideas to easily write an essay or narrative and make my thoughts and points
clear. I can also use my creativity to make a sentence or piece of evidence flow with
the rest of my writing piece. In addition, I am always looking for new ways to
make my writing better and I am driven to do so. My strengths in writing are
especially shown when writing a fiction or realistic fiction story where I can make
up my own characters and my own plot, even if I am instructed to follow a specific
guideline or prompt. It is easier for me because I can visualize how I want a story
to turn out and how the characters react to certain points in the plot. However,
essays are a little harder for me. I can convey my ideas and evidence easily, but
creating conclusions and creating a strong thesis is a challenge for me. So, I
would like to work on making my conclusions and thesis statements stronger so
that I can be even better at writing essays. Achieving this would ultimately make me
a better writer overall and would even benefit other types of essays or stories I may
have to write in the future. Lastly, one other activity I am literate in is reading.
Reading has been something I have been exceptional at since I was very young,
and my family definitely had a considerably large influence on this. For instance,
when I was less than 1 year old my mother would read books to me, and I ended up

cause, reasonable suspicion, and proof beyond a reasonable doubt, by trying to
link the topic that this learner selected which was a Juveniles Right to Counsel. If
this learner s topic does not relate to these discussions, an alternate case will be
revived to address the topic. But before this learner discusses the sections of this
discussion, this learner thinks we can understand what will be discussed if we know
the definition of probable cause, reasonable suspicion, and proof beyond a reasonable
doubt.
What is probable cause, reasonable suspicion, and proof beyond a reasonable
doubt Most of us kind of understand what probable cause is and reasonable
suspicion means, but for some of us we do not know, thereby this learner will
explain the two. An example of what probable cause is: That is like when a LEO is
about to pull you over, they must decide if they have a reason to do this before
they make the stop. Basically, they need some form of facts to believe that the
individual has broken the law. Next, we have Reasonable suspicion, that is where for
example, a LEO needs to have sufficient knowledge to believe that a crime is in
progress, and the level of knowledge is less than that of probable cause, thereby, the
LEO will usually do a brief search at the roadside or other public area to justify
stopping the individual ( Probable Cause and , n.d.,

44. Short Story The Lamp At Noon And The Painted Door
In the short stories The Lamp At Noon and The Painted Door by Sinclair Ross, the
use of setting is a tool to help emphasize the relationships of both marriages in each
story as well as helping support the motifs of loneliness and isolation. However, this
use of setting is much more effective in The Lamp At Noon as opposed to The
Painted Door.
In The Painted Door, the setting is a small farm which supports a man named John
and his wife, Ann. The farm on which they live is rather desolate as they are not in
a very close proximity to any of their neighbours and are often secluded to their
house during the winter seasons with their only interactions being a game of cards
with their neighbour, Steven. This scenario in which these two live can be reflected
by the environment around them. The story takes place in the midst of a tremendous
blizzard, the blizzard is so powerful that Ann can t walk outside without being pushed
over by the wind. This snow covered abyss exemplifies how alone the couple is.
The darkness and literal isolation from the rest of the world are clear indicators of
this. The dark and cold also represents how Ann views her relationship with John.
She yearns for his affection and his attention, but despite these needs all John ever
does is work. He works himself to the bone so that Ann can be comfortable with
her place in life failing to realize that all she s ever wanted was affection and
company, which she eventually finds in Steven. The Lamp At Noon also makes
good use of its setting to help develop the themes as well as the marriage of this
story s couple, Paul and Ellen. The setting of this story is a dried up farm where no
crops grow. The whole farm is shrouded in a cloud of dust and wind. The dust fills
the air of Paul and Ellen s house completely smothering everything with dust. Ellen,
coming from a richer household, urges Paul to leave believing that they have no
future here and that the crops will never grow again. Ellen left a life of comfort
and luxury for a dusty, decrepit farm, resulting in feelings of isolation, anger and
hopelessness. However, Paul is determined to stay and live off the land, he has faith
that the crops will grow and their farm will be prosperous once more. This is

Thank you for participating in our recent Special Results Minneapolis roundtable
conversation on youth violence prevention. A roundtable meeting presents a unique
opportunity for City staff, leadership, elected officials, and stakeholders from outside
agencies and organizations to engage in robust discussions.
The YouthViolence Prevention Special Report presented by the Minneapolis Health
Department focused their data driven approach on identifying trends and
opportunities to reduce youth violence. From the discussion, three interrelated
themes emerged. To reduce youth violence, it requires actions taken with youth,
families, and the greater Minneapolis community. The following memo details these
themes, and suggests ways to reduce youth ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net

Therefore, to reduce youth violence, it is necessary to make wraparound services
available to youth also available to families. Without supporting families, efforts to
curtail youth violence cannot be as effective.
Theme: The Greater Minneapolis Community Has the Resources to Reduce Youth
Violence.
A consistent theme that at risk youth raise in discussions with community social
workers is the desire to have a job. Minneapolis has done a great deal of work in
connecting youth to employers through program such as Step up and Pathways .
These programs give any adolescence, at risk or not, a unique opportunity to build
purpose and nurture relationships with potential future employers. These programs
help to create positive life trajectories for youth.
The Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS) has operated a highly successful afterschool
program for years. Over the last 15 years, the funding for the program has declined
precipitously. Limited funds have made it challenging for MPS to keep the program
staffed with teachers, relying on an inconsistent flow of volunteers instead. The
afterschool program is an invaluable resource in the effort to reduce youth violence.
Instead of unsupervised and unstructured time, the program keeps youth focused on
completing homework, developing skills, exposes them to mentors, and allows
parents to rest assured that their children are safe while they are still at

0.2 mL albumen. Thus, 0.2 mL Г· 20 mL solution x 100 = 1% albumen solution.

Alpha amylase Solution Preparation used in Exercises 1 and 2:
Find the dropper bottle marked alpha amylase. Carefully remove the bottle cap
from the dropper bottle and thenremove the dropping tip. This can be done by first
placing a small clean piece of aluminum foil or plastic wrap over the tip. Then use
your fingers or pliers to gently wiggle the tip upwardto free it from the bottle. The
foil or plastic will help to prevent contaminating the tip with foreign substances. Place
the removed tip on some foil or plastic until needed. Note the instructions on the
dropper bottle, and use the amount of water specified there for the following
procedure. (Vorndam, 2002, p. 97)
Place an aliquot of distilled water into a clean beaker. Use the beaker to pour the
exact mL of distilled water into the graduated cylinder. It helps if you use a long
stemmed pipet to control the water when the solution is close to the mL mark. Pour
this aliquot of distilled water from the graduated cylinder into the dropper bottle
containing pre measured alpha amylase powder. Carefully replace the dropping tip,
still covered with foil or plastic. Remove the

A majority of high school graduates are likely to be nervous to a degree about their
first year at college. Students may report being nervous for the reason that they don t
know how to navigate through the campus effectively, they feel unsure about where
they fit in socially, or they happen to be unfamiliar with the university s culture. Much
to my surprise as a first time freshman, the University of Arkansas at Monticello
provided various activities for students throughout the fall semester. Certain activities
have proven to be more beneficial than others. A few events I have attended included
freshman orientation, grabbing lunch with a classmate, viewing a show of fireworks
with my friend, and taking a stroll through the campus. Out of the four, I benefitted
greatly from the strollthrough campus. The start of my quest to come to be involved
with my university began with freshman orientation on the seventeenth of August.
This was the first instance I had ever stepped foot on the campus, and I was so
nervous that I could hardly bring myself to step out of my mother s vehicle. With a
few words of encouragement, I finally entered the building where the event was
taking place the Fine Arts Building auditorium. The building was actually
recognizable since I had been there several times during high school for choir trips.
Once inside, each of the hundreds of freshmen were handed a bag containing
pamphlets and informational documents before being told to sit in any seat they
48. 1906 Earthquakes Report
On April 18, 1906 a magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck the city of San Francisco,
California at 5:18 in the morning. Major fires followed the quake, and burned down
the city for several days, as the firefighters had no water source to kill the fires. How
did this earthquake happen? The answer: The 1906 earthquakeoccurred because of
movement along the San Andreas Fault. Earthquakes are constantly happening in
different places and because of various reasons. Scientists are constantly working to
understand earthquakes and the reasons for their occurrences. Although some people
think earthquakes have simple causes, they may be interested to know that
earthquakes are caused by movement along faults, hydraulic fracking, and volcanic
eruptions.
The most common cause of earthquakes is movement along faults. Earth s crust is
divided into tectonic plates, which grind past each other at fault boundaries. As
tectonic plates move, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Fracking is the process in which large amounts of water, sand, and other chemicals
are injected into rock formations in order to release natural gases. Scientists believe
that this process of injecting wastewater underground activates dormant faults.
Although earthquakes from this process are rare, they are largely increasing in
number and magnitude throughout the United States. For example, Oklahoma s
seismic activity was seventy times greater in 2013 than before 2008. Before those
years, Oklahoma had an average of one and a half earthquakes with a magnitude
three or greater each year. Currently, Oklahoma has an average of two and a half
earthquakes everyday with a magnitude of three or greater. Fracking is a very
important and rapidly growing cause of earthquakes. Places that never experienced
earthquakes may begin seeing earthquakes as a very common occurrence. Hydraulic
fracking, a human action, can cause earthquakes, but many earthquakes occur from
natural disasters, such as volcanic

A utilitarian argument, in the strict sense, is one what alleges that we ought to do
something because it will produce more total happiness than doing anything else
would. Act utilitarianism is the moral theory that holds that the morally right action,
the act that we have a moral duty to do, is the one that will maximize utility
happiness, welfare, well being Act utilitarianismis not to be confused with egoism.
The egoist really only cares about his own happiness. Act utilitarianism says that

50. Olive Oil In Ancient Greece
Olive oil is a liquid fat obtained from olives. It is a traditional tree crop of the
mediterranean basin. Olive trees have been grown around the mediterranean since
the 8th century BCE as well as the cultivation of olive trees and the production of
olive oil. Olive oil has many uses. It is mainly used as cooking oil in countries
surrounding the mediterranean and it is one of the staples of mediterranean cuisine.
Although, oliveoil is used in virtually every global cuisine. Additionally, It is most
commonly used as a salad dressing or as an ingredient in a salad dressing or
vinaigrette. The taste of the oil is stronger when not heated because the unrefined
particles are burned, causing the ste taste to deteriorate. Freshness also makes a

The olive tree was a important symbol because it connected their diet to their
religion. The olive tree and branch was used as a decorative motif on primarily
vases and jewelry. It was a symbol of Athena and Athena s gift to the Athenians,
and she was a symbol of peace, wisdom, and victory. Due to the symbolism of the
olive, winners of the Olympic games were crowned with a wreath of olives to
signal their victory and power. Athletes would oil their bodies with oil before
exercising and before the Olympic games. The winner would be awarded with oil,
which was not used for cooking or eating but for anointing the basis of the rich,
young athletes.Olive oil was so important that greek philosophers Thales of Miletus
and Democritus used astronomy to predict poor or prosperous harvests. Olive oil also
has many other uses in Ancient Greece based on social status. For instance, the lower
class did not consume olive oil; whereas, the rich were able to cook with the oil,
use it for lighting, and for cleaning their bodies. Olive oil was a valuable medicine
because of its use by Ancient Greek doctors; Hippocrates claimed that 60 different
conditions could be treated with the oil, such as skin conditions, wounds and
burns, gynaecological ailments, ear infections, as well as many others. When
medicine had failed to save the patient, it was used to lay out the dead: women
washed the dead body and anointed it with olive oil, and oil was one of the
offerings laid out for the dead at their gravesite. As early as 800 BCE when Greeks
began moving out of Greece and founding Greek colonies in Sicily, southern France,
and the west coast of Spain, they took olive trees with
