Tearoom Trade Summary Essay
Sociologist Laud Humphreys observed men, who were unaware of his topic of research, and used
sources from their daily lifestyles as homosexual males, in order to help him create his
controversial book Tearoom Trade . Humphreys had the availability to collect the right data by
observing the participants behavior, recording their license plate numbers, so he can find their
addresses, going to their homes, disguising himself, and interviewing them. When he released his
book, a few social scientists claimed that Humphreys researchwas a violation of professional
ethics. I am in agreement with the social scientists statement because this project about
homosexuals secret daily lives, without the consent and notification of his intentions was
deceitful. If I found out that I was a subject of Humphreys project, I would have felt violated and
betrayed because he disguised himself and interviewed me as if he was a part of the same
lifestyle, and he never told me about the research and the book. I also would have felt I had a
major part in Humphreys book because he used my lifestyle to achieve his professional goal without

Even though, Humphreys lost his teaching contract and research grant, he had informed the public
about the men s behavior in public restrooms, so the public can become aware and how to take
precautionary measures when going into public restrooms. For example, if a male child needs to
go in a public bathroom to urinate or defecate, they must have adult supervision because of
homosexual behavior that may occur in the public restrooms. As a result of Humphreys research,
mothers and fathers of male children can protect them from witnessing this type of sexual behavior

Romare Bearden s The Train
Romare Bearden, an African American artist, was born in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 1911. As
a child he moved to New York City where his parents were both very involved in the African
American community and the Harlem Renaissance. Bearden attended Lincoln University and
then later transferred to Boston University. He then proceeded with school and began attending
New York University, where he focused more on his art. Later on, Bearden joined the Art
Students League where he studied under George Grosz. Grosz was a German artist who was
famous for his paintings and drawings. However, Grosz also did collage work that later inspired
Bearden to begin creating collage pieces. Although Bearden worked with many different medias,
including oils and water color, he was most known for his collages. In his collages, Bearden would
depict African Americanlife. Bearden would use different pieces from magazines and combine
them together with other media to create a piece that demonstrated a scene of daily African
American life. Through his collages, Bearden became a very well known artist in the... Show more

The Effects Of Dyslexia On Children With Dyslexia
There is no doubt that reading and writing are vital in today s society. Without basic
comprehension skills you simply cannot become educated let alone survive. It was a common
belief that anyone who wanted to read, or to learn to read, would be able to, right? With Dyslexia,
that is not the case. Dyslexia is described as the difficulty to comprehend language through reading
and writing, despite a normal level of intelligence. Dyslexiais not only the most common learning
disability, but is also highly recognized. There are three proposed distinctions within dyslexia that
includes auditory, visual, and attentional. Understanding dyslexia would help the educational
community as long as the medical community. Although the scientific community has extensive
research on Dyslexia, there are still neurological aspects to consider and to learn about. Dyslexia
is a complex disability that has interested physicians for centuries. Students with dyslexia should
not be overlooked and deserve equal opportunities in the classroom. Dyslexia was distinguished in
the late 19th century by an ophthalmologist. He coined the term because a child showed much
impairment while trying to learn to read, even with normal physical and intelligence. It was first
known as congenital word blindness by British physicians. They were confused when a child came
to them and was a very smart among his classmates, yet did not know how to read. It was further

Ida B Wells Research Paper
Ida B. Wells is a name that should always be synonymous with African American modern history.
Being born during the Civil War in the South and living her life through Reconstruction, history
would play a huge role with her life. So when given the choice of being a background character or
to take center stage, Wells found her spot light and shone like the morning sun. The South would do
its best to stifle her voice both as child, though she would not know it, and as an adult. Yet Wells
would show the strength and determination of an African Americanwoman and prove that she was
as much a part of the large scale Civil Rights Movement as her male counterparts.
Certain instances in history really help shape who Wells would become. For example, Wells was

While the South would continue to grow in racial violence and inequality, Wells would attend
Shaw University (though the president would later expel her) and become a teacher in
Memphis, Tennessee (a more progressive area of the South, compared to Holly Springs,
Mississippi) Wells would become a major influence in the South after a day in 1883. One
Saturday while riding the train into Woodstock, a conductor removed her from the first class car
she was riding in, that she had paid to ride in, to put her in the smoking car. She refused to be
treated as less than she was and got off the train. She would in turn sue the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad Company and win, only to have it overturned. Wells would take this and over the next
few years she would speak out about the racial injustice across the South. After the lynching of
three men in 1892, she would travel the South and learn of lynching stories in other parts of the
South, documenting them as she went. Her writings would end up in African American newspapers
as well as her own, the Free Speech. Regardless of losing her teaching job and threats against her

Should Heart Of Darkness Be Taught In Schools
Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad is a highly debated book over whether or not it should be
read in schools. Many people see Heart of Darkness as a racist book that is blatantly offensive to
African Americans, but others view Heart of Darkness as an important book that explores many
complex ideas, such as the internal conflict between a man s sanity and insanity, and Conrad s
opposition to Imperialism, which was very prevalent during the time the book was written. While
the opponents of Heart of Darknesssay that this book should not be read in schools, I believe the
book can be utilized in an academic environment. The opposers to this book do make a reasonable
and correct point that this book uses very strong language and seems to be racist, Conrad did not
intend to convey racist perspectives, rather, taking on that role to further his point towards
Imperialism. Although it uses strong language in the book, that was used to show how Europeans
viewed Africans during the time period. This should be read in an academic environment because
it is a very well written text and can be used to show the effect of Imperialism during the 19th and

Traditional Medicine And Modern Medicine
Since 7,000 BCE humans were discovered to have used primitive methods to practice medicine and
overtime it s become more sophisticated. Medicine, in general, is the science and practice of the
diagnosis, treatments, and prevention of disease. It encompasses a variety of evolved methods to
maintain and rejuvenate health. When aspects of traditional medicinesuch as acupuncture and herbal
remedies are combined with modern scientific medicine, complications regarding a person s mental
or physical condition may be resolved in an affordable, ethical, and effective manner.

Compare And Contrast Ottoman Empire And Safavid Empires
The Ottoman, Safavid, and Mughal empires all contributed to create what is known as the Age of
Gunpowder Empires between 1450 1800 (Islamic Empires). Although these empires were thought
to be extremely different, the vast amount of similarities within their actions and methods proved to
be almost identical. These empires focused their power on military and used new technological
advances with firearms; this included the cannon and small arms. The Empires even took it upon
themselves to develop a centralized administration. Each administration dealt with the finance,

The Safavid Empire was a theocracy and its dominant and only religion was Shi a Islam, since
all other religions were suppressed. The Empire benefited from its ideal location and the trading
that came from its location. The Safavid Empire was strengthened by soldiers from the Ottoman
army who had fled from persecution of the Ottoman Empire. The Empire started to decline when
it became corrupt. The Safavid Empire was strong in power within its early years due to its
ability to conquer new territory. However the huge downfall from these actions of conquering
more and more land was the Safavids inability to protect all of the new land they were
conquering. Due to this, the military forces became less effective and weak. The Empire became
corrupt with its switch to become a Republic in the eighteenth century. The taxes and laws became
ridiculous and the people grew more displeased with the empire. The problems the Safavid
Empire had were spiritual and political, and due to this was such a huge part to the decline of the

The Literary Relationship of Jude and 2 Peter
The Letters of Jude and 2 Peter have traditionally been grouped together because they share a
direct literary relationship. However, knowing what letter was based off of the other is very
difficult to understand. Both letters belong to a collection of epistles at the end of the New
Testament which are sometimes referred to as Catholic Epistles. These two epistles both offer
practical advice and reflections on the nature of God, the nature of humanity s relationship to
God, and the response of a community when confronted with false teaching. The purpose of this
paper is to detect the agreements in content or wording between the two letters and discuss
whether the letter of Jude was dependent on 2 Peter as a source or if 2 Peter used Jude as a
source. Due to the several agreements between the two letters, one can be certain that either the
author of Jude or 2 Peter used the other as a source, or both independently used a common
source. Reese states that one of the reasons that Jude has often been treated alongside the book
of 2 Peter has been because the second chapter of 2 Peter and the main body of Jude share
remarkable similarities in style, language, argument and examples. Both books refer to angels who
sinned, to Sodom and Gomorrah, and to Balaam (Reese 14). Both letters also remind the readers
that people like the false teachers were expected by the apostles. Reese also brings it to her readers

Perhaps Hamlet prefers if it was him in his uncle s place. With all the evidence, it is almost as if
Shakespeare was hinting at Hamlet s oedipal maternal desires. His attitude and state of mind
throughout the story can be attributed to how he feels about his mother remarrying. For
example, Hamlet is sulking around in a black cloak as he questions why ``[Gertrude] would
hang on [Claudius]/ As if increase of appetite had grown/ By what it fed on (I.ii.347 348). He is
very clearly expressing verbally how upset he is when pondering his mother and her new lover,
but he is also expressing it physically by wearing black even though his father is But two
months dead (I.ii.342). Hamlet s grieving period is over and therefore has no need to wear black
anymore. He is wearing black and sulking now because he is grieving his mother s love. For she
has moved on and found a new man to bed, thus jealousy ensues. This is something that happens
frequently when a new alpha male enters a relationship dynamic, parental or sexual. More
evidence of his inappropriate maternal love is shown by the way he treats Ophelia. It is said by
Freud and other psychologists that the relationship you have with your lover mirrors the
relationship you have with your parental figures. It is no coincidence that the way he batters her

Foreign Investment And Removal Of Trade Barrier Essay
Trade plays a key role in stimulating economies. It promotes sustainable economic growth and
development. However, for this to happen there needs to be openness. This paper is going to
discuss how increasing the level of openness of developing nations can lead to increased
economic growth. The paper will also review some of the dynamic gains that can be made from
trade before concluding with a discussion of the roles of global trade organizations in promoting
economic development. These discussions will be supported with examples of nations that have
excelled in the various aspects that will be discussed. How will increasing level of openness lead
to economic growth? Our research shows that openness leads to technological advancement,
foreign investment and removal of trade barrier. These factors can all contribute to economic
growth. First of all, if a country opens up its door and welcome foreign investors, this is a
beginning to future growth. Foreign investors bring in capital and advanced production technology
in developed countries. China is a great example of this. Former country chief Deng Xiaoping
established a couple of special economic development areas in coastal China cities in 1997. These

Self presentation is basically presenting ourselves in ways that make a good impression. Teachers
usually need to make a good first impression in front of their students because it usually sets how
the students will treat them throughout the course of the year. By being socially intelligent, the
teacher can get a read on their crowd so they can respond accordingly.
Charisma is one aspect of self presentation that peaks in effective speaking. Women are usually
more emotionally expressive than men, but are often constrained by the norms of the workplace
where crying and being angry can be a no no. An exception to the anger rule is the boss. It may

which is an approach to the analysis of discourse which maintains that, language is a social
practice and analyses how ideologies and power relations are approached in language (Fairclough

Wodak, 1997; Wodak Meyer, 2009, and Foucault, 1972, are among theorists who have made great

understanding of elite discourse in the form of textbooks, massages, media, political discourse, and

One of the most widely used post workout supplements is a protein shake. The typical whey
protein shake contains twenty four grams of protein. While chocolate milk contains only eight
grams. In an eight ounce glass of chocolate milk there are approximately two hundred calories. A
protein shake has 120 calories. A single serving of chocolate milk contains five grams of fat, three
of which are saturated fats. The whey protein shake contains one total gram of fat. Both drinks
offer many health benefits but, as a post workout supplement a protein shake would be the best
choice. When it comes to workout drinks, it is best to look for something with lots of glycogen and
protein. The common exercise routine breaks down muscle mass. The muscles in the human body
need protein to remain firm, and glycogen to replenish the cells within them. Supplements should
be consumed two hours following a workout. Dairy products are not recommended as a
replacement for post workout supplements because they can cause vomiting and diarrhea.
Therefore, chocolate milk would not be the best to use after physical activity. Although many
people prefer post workout protein shakes, it depends on the athlete s preference. Exercise is

The Concepts Of Column Oriented Databases
Abstract: This documents explores the concepts of column oriented databases including its
applications, advantages, and tools in which it is utilized. We describe how it differs from other
database structures, and why it has become popular in the area of data analytics.
Introduction
The ever widening realm of big data has created an expanding frontier of exploration for the
creation of new methods of data analysis in order to produce actionable knowledge for the benefit
of organizations everywhere. Companies amass enormous troves of data every day. Keeping this
data housed in a fashion that maximizes storage efficiency and in a format optimized for query and
analysis is paramount for effective data warehousing. Many database structures exist for the
storage, arrangement, and accessing of data, but large databases and online analytical processing
(OLAP) benefit from specific qualities. In these databases, compression and rapid querying are
the main enabling qualities sought for analytical data stores and data warehouses. Columnar (or
column oriented) relational databases (RDBMS) offer these and other benefits, which is why it is
a popular database scheme for analytical systems. Specifically, the vertical arrangement of records
is optimal for selecting the sum, average, or a count of total record attributes because one

convention they were planning on attending, Leonard was showing Penny places they were
going to stay and sleep. He was smiling and you could definitely tell it was a fake smile. Penny

Penny not to go to the convention with him by showing her she would have a terrible time. I
believe Penny was using the fake smile to show Leonard that she was excited about the trip,
although she really didn t want to go. The fake smiles they were both wearing are an example of
the sub content of the facial display channel.
The second channel of nonverbal communication I noticed was gestures. This was when Leonard

Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of a poem is its ability to draw in the reader and hold that

The poem s nontraditional structure contributes to the theme of isolation. Throughout the
entirety of the poem, there is an obvious lack of punctuation and proper spelling. This style can
best be shown in the first stanza: tonite, thriller was / abt an ol woman, so vain she / surrounded
her self w/ / many mirrors (1 4). The evident misspelling of the words tonight and about along
with the abbreviations of old and with support the poem s bizarre set up. Within the poem Reed
constructs a whole new style of writing, differentiating itself from the common structural
expectations. A further example of structural uncommonness leading to theme is the various
spaces inserted throughout the poem. In the last few lines the speaker informs its audience
about the statistic of missing persons in the U.S. [Thousands upon thousands leave no clues]
/ nor trace only / a space in the lives of their friends (45 49). Though not an obvious detail, upon
closer inspection the reader can see the purposely placed spaces isolating the words only a space
. The intentional structure is an implied comparison to the void left in the lives of loved ones.
Furthermore, by comparing a reader s unwearying attention to a missing person highlights the

Bystanders As A Bystander In Joseph Conrad s Heart Of...
In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends (King,
n.d.). King s (n.d.) statement demonstrates the major internal impact bystanders can have on
others. As a matter of fact, most people do not think about the possible long term effects of not
standing up for someone or something. Although it may not seem like a big deal to one person, it
could be life changing to another. Many just consider a bystander to be someone who is present at
an incident and doesn t take action, but there is actually much more to it. The term bystander can
be defined as someone who is present during corruption, does not speak up, and seems not to care
about others.
By definition, a bystander must be present during an act of corruption, hence the word. If they are
not present, they do not have the choice to be a bystander or not since they have no idea what
happened. In the novel, Heart of Darkness, Marlow can definitely be considered a bystander,
especially since he was present during the corruption involving the Congo people. For example,
Marlow has already been to the Congo and has seen the terrible events happening to the people
there. And this also, said Marlow suddenly, has been one of the dark places of the earth (Conrad,

Flatland Social Structure
The social structure of Flatland is similar to the structure of the 1800s, when Abbott wrote the
book. The males in Flatland are shapes composed of multiple sides, while the females are only
straight lines. The greater number of sides each figure has, the higher their status is. This concept is
quite similar to this time in Britian, where social casts and classes were relevant. Another common
theme in Flatlandand in the 1800s is that members of the classes wanted to rank up and become
something greater. Flatland is written in first person, by A Square. This gives the overall novel a
tone of closeness. We are hearing the events from a source that experienced and witnessed the
events contained in the novel, which gives readers a better understanding of what happened. A
Square is somewhere in the middle of the class ranks. He s not a member of the lowest or highest
social classes. This helps him to understand all the different viewpoints and perspectives in
Flatland. By being in the middle class, he isn t too biased towards one side or the other.

type of compensation is typically comprised of some combination of the following: benefits
payouts, costs of administrative processing amongst others. On the other hand indirect costs

make sure that, employees facing downsizing should be treated with Outmost respect and dignity
similar to one offered to them when they were being welcomed in the employment. HR should also
keep unfettered focus on employees job performance and use the layoff as an opportunity to get rid
of poor performers. There should be consistent and steady communication communications to

A Brief Note On The Temperate Deciduous Forest Biome
Alexis Apicella
Chapter 5.
1) I live in the Temperate Deciduous Forest Biome and within this biome the temperature and
precipitation are the most important determinants. There are distinct seasons where the summers
are warmer than in the winters. Also in the fall the leaves will fall off of the trees and in the
following spring they will appear again. These factors have changed over the past 100 years due to
global warming. The weather within seasons have changed resulting in more frequent hot days and
fewer cool days.
2) We cannot protect people from a natural disturbance such as a fire, because it is a natural part of
an ecosystem and are bound to happen. We cannot control flooding, windstorms, or earthquakes,
which are also natural disturbances, therefore we prevent fires where houses were built in the path.

3) There are more disadvantages of living longer or reproducing more quickly then there are
advantages. In order for a species to survive they must have access to food and water. As a

The Ethics Of Care Ethics
Care Ethics (Feminist Ethics) is the importance of caring relationships in life whether its human or
animal related. The main goal of care ethics is to maintain and promote caring relationships. Care
ethics involves helping both yourself and the world around you. It gives you the motivation to care
for others beside yourself. Care ethicsaccording to the article is more a general approach than a
theory in regards to other ethical practices. The goal of care ethics is to show that women have the
same equal rights as men and that they both have freedoms of their own. This is important as this
is helping to address equality among the human race. Care ethics as a whole revolves around
emotions.
Care ethic believers preach that having emotions helps you to think and feel for others. The goal in
emotions is to focus on the wants and needs of the one being cared for. They believe through this
they can relate to others in their needs. An example that the article gives is the mother child
relationship. If a child wants something to eat, the mother of that child knows best what the child
needs. This is due to the caring motherly nature that mothers have. Also, caring helps to motivate us
to tend to those, even if we are exhausted, and angry. The difference between care ethics and
utilitarianism is that utilitarian s do not believe that emotions are helping them to choose right or

Realism in Oedipus the King Essay
Realism in Oedipus Rex
This essay will examine a feature of Sophocles tragedy which causes the reader to doubt the
realism underlying the literary work. Specifically, the essay will consider the feasability of the

At the outset of the drama the priest of Zeus and the crowd of citizens of Thebes are gathered
before the royal palace of Thebes talking to King Oedipus about the plague which is ravaging the
city. The king is sorely troubled and laments the sad situation. Then he says:

What s amiss?

This stain of blood makes shipwreck of our state.
And for the duration of the tragedy the characters explicitly or implicitly acknowledge their total
belief in the directions of the Delphic oracle as the only means of ridding Thebes of the plague.
Historically speaking, did the Delphic oracle have such credibility among the populace?
For an answer to this question we go to The Histories of Herodotus. Herodotus was called the
Father of History by Cicero and others. He lived and wrote in the fifth century BC just like
Sophocles. As a contemporary, Herodotus knew and wrote about the beliefs and customs of the
ancient Greeks as an historian, not as a litterateur. Herodotus was therefore interested in a factual
presentation, not in an imaginative presentation such as Sophocles sought for as a dramatist.
Herodotus, therefore, can be relied upon to either substantiate or contradict the validity of the
situation in Oedipus Rex where the realism of the drama rests considerably on the claimed belief in
the infallibility of the Delphic oracle.
Let us examine a portion of The Histories that describes Athens, since Sophocles lived in Athens
and wrote for an Athenian audience and even had Oedipus die at Colonnus, a suburb of Athens. In

Water Is An Essential Part Of Human Lives
Water is an essential part of human lives. People not only need water for consumption, but also
utilize it daily in several ways; this includes bathing, washing, sewage/waste, watering outdoors,
etc. Water is essentially everywhere. Although access to water in the United States often seems so
simple and easy, water is not always in the form people see coming out of the faucet. There are a
variety of water sources on the Earth. Although from several sources, water has a distinguished
cycle on the planet. Examining the water cycleand the sources of water on the earth can help bring
a better understanding of water usage and available resources.
According to the NASA Earth Observation, over 75% of the Earth s surface is made up of
water (Graham, Parkinson, Chahine, 2010). The Earth s total water content is roughly 1.39
billion cubic kilometers, or 331 million cubic miles (Graham et al., 2010). As seen in Figure 1,
there are a variety of categories the Earth s water can be broken up into. Over 96% of the Earth s
water is made up of the five oceans (Graham et al., 2010). When examining water simply in terms
of freshwater, most of the reservoir comes from glaciers and ice caps. By examining these

This complex issue defines a major problem for job opportunities for the American economy due to
Japan s shift in foreign investment in the Unite States:
The Japanese will place more of their emphasis on investment in Asia, leaving less capital to
finance United States budget deficits or to buy up American companies or open new factories.
Japanese electronic goods and automobiles will not disappear from American shelves or
showrooms, but increasingly they will come from factories in Asia, rather than in Japan or the
United States (Sterngold, 2016, para.8).
In this manner, Japanese foreign investments will begin to shift away from the American
manufacturing sector to Asian labor markets. This is an important problem with Japanese foreign
investments that continue to seek out lower cost labor markets in order to avoid the higher costs in
America: That will mean less job creation in Ohio or Tennessee, as the Japanese start up fewer new
ventures in the United States (para.8). This is an important factor in the evolving foreign

The High Quality Data Gathering System Essay
Measured and Monitored In China, as well as other countries, including the United States,
controlling the rising cost medical care while providing high quality services (value for money
spent) is an arduous task in advancing the cause of imparting universal healthcare coverage to a
country s population (Tang, Tao, Bekedam, 2012). This quest is particularly problematic in China
with respect to quality, due to a lack of appropriate systematic monitoring which may be considered
essential for any type of improvement (Ma, Lu, Quan, 2008). As China has no reliable clinical
quality data gathering system, the current extent to which the quality of medical services is
measured and monitored consists of graded public hospitals divided into levels based on the
inherent resources available to patients (Xu, Liu, Shu, Yang, Liang, (2015). In terms of measuring
and monitoring cost control, China has begun to monitor and evaluate pharmaceutical drugs
brought into all of the public hospitals, as this is a significant source of the country s health care
expenditure, and reportedly obtains some measurement data through the collection of information
from national health services surveys (Tang, Tao, Bekedam, 2012), which are only instituted on an

As I began to enfold the many great words in this book I began with chapter one. The first key
point I came across was learning how Jesus is our model. The book described how Jesus was not
just a spirit guiding us through our lives all though he could have been. Jesus walked this earth and
lived out a humanlife. Jesusshowed us how to live the perfect life, and I believe this is a major
aspect to carry over to the nursing field. Being a Christian nurse inspires us to be the best version
of ourselves. As we reflect on the way Jesus lived we should do everything possible to live out a
life like him. Jesus lived the perfect life and as Christian nurses we should strive to be like him.
The next thing that stood out to me in chapter one was the closing prayer. It states how Jesus gave
up heaven to come down here and save us humans. God and Jesus really both gave the ultimate
sacrifice. They both gave up so much to help us humans. To relate this to the nursing field is
very simple. God and Jesus gave up everything, so I think it our duty as nurses to help and give
back. They sacrificed so much, so being a Christian nurse entails us to sacrifice, give back, and
help others just like God and Jesus did for us. As I ponder on the questions at the end of chapter
I see how much Jesus really did for us. We learned how to live the perfect life from Jesus. I see
how much pain and suffering God and Jesus went through to save us as humans. These questions
make me realize that being a giver

Project Evaluation And Selection Of Interconnected Projects
As traffic increases and links become congested, people may suffer delays and long travel time
for their daily trips. Planners may decide to improve this situation for people in the area. One of
the options for improving the conditions of traveling in the congested area is link expansion. Link
expansion projects in transportation networks are almost always interdependent. When capacity of
one link in a network changes it affects the flow of other links, and may shift bottle necks
elsewhere throughout the network. In other words with respect to this expansion in one link, flow
in other links may increase or decrease due to interdependency among them. So finding a sequence
for a set of improvement projects needs consideration of their... Show more content on

(Wang and Schonfeld. 2005) Along the same lines, simulation based genetic search can be time
consuming but with the advent of new technology and higher speed Processors, this problem is
becoming less significant. Existing Studies mainly focuses on selecting and scheduling of
projects with the assumption of being independent. There are two approaches which are
commonly used for solving project selection and sequencing. The first approach is integer
programming (Weingartner 1966; Cochran et al. 1971; Clark et al. 1984; Johnson et al. 1985) and
the second one is dynamic programming (Weingartner 1966; Nemhauser and Ullman 1969; Morin
and Esogbue 1971; Erlenkotter 1973; Morin 1974). [2] The first defect of these approaches is the
difficulty of capturing the interdependencies among projects, and the second one is the inefficiency
or even the infeasibility of the results in the case of responding to larger problems. Martinelli
(1993) proposed a heuristic method for selecting and scheduling interdependent waterway
investment projects. The results of this method are based on an evaluation to compare various
combinations of project implementation over a time period. This method begins by establishing an
initial sequence based on an independent evaluation. Then the initial solution is adjusted by using a
heuristic which performs a swap (or swaps) in the sequence. This is done by plotting system cost

My Experience At Wenatchee Valley College
Bridgeport, Washington the exact place I like to call home, remains the basis of reasoning for
my goals and aspirations that I envision myself having a bright future for the years to come. This
specific town holds the roots of my commencement to my academic history and achievement
which has also allowed me to develop specific interests for a career path of choice. Most of all,
this town has been the reason for a better understanding of not only a certain culture, but
particularly my own, and showed how the empowerment of a culture in a small town can be so
successful.
After a very short four years of high school where my college studies had also began, I find myself
today attending WenatcheeValley College. Here in Wenatchee I m continuing my college career
to obtain my associates in arts and science degree in which will receive in the spring of 2016.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Analysis
If you re a human who s ever been bored, you ve probably taken a Buzzfeed quiz. If not, you re
not missing much. Buzzfeed is well known for its strange personality quizzes that range from
Which Disney princess are you? to Will your choice of bread reveal how lonely you are? But let
s be real. Do these tests actually tell you anything? Most likely, the results are similar to a weekly
horoscope just vague enough to apply to almost anyone. However, if there was a quiz that could
analyze your personality and make well researched predictions about your future, would you take it?
The Myers Briggs Type IndicatorВ®, MBTIВ®, is said to do exactly that. According to opp.com,

Today, several versions of the quiz can be taken online, the most notable website being
16personalities.com. The test is said to take less than 12 minutes; although, thoughtfully chosen
answers may result in a longer completion time.
Students, particularly those looking to choose a career path, could benefit from taking this quiz. It
can validate what students already know about themselves or present new information from which
they can learn. The end report presents a myriad of data, such as strengths and weaknesses, what
type of career setting they would be most comfortable, habits in the workplace, relationship
explanations, and a conclusion that sums everything up in a few short paragraphs.
Although this test is interesting, what everyone must realize is that people are way more complex
than any personality test will tell them. No test can be 100% accurate for everyone and it shouldn
t be taken as gospel. This test organizes everyone into a box; learn from it, but don t let its walls

Analysis Of The Film Shawshank Redemption
My chosen scene from the film Shawshank Redemption directed by Frank Darabont, is the scene
where Andy escapes from the prison. The scene begins with the guards discovering Andy has
escaped and transitions into a flashback of how Andy plotted and executed his escape. Key film
techniques in the film are the uses of camera shots/movement, sound, dialogue and symbols. All of
these techniques create an intense atmosphere and draw attention to the hidden meanings and
messages present in this scene and the filmitself, such as what the rocks and posters mean to Andy
on a deeper meaning, outside of just being a distraction. The camera shots and movement in the
film are primarily used to emphasize how characters are feeling, highlighting things that are
important to both Andy and the audience, and to keep the pace of the film. Close ups in this scene
are used to reveal the strong emotions felt by the characters. After the opening of the scene we
see a close up of Red looking to Any s cell. The director does this to show Red s profound concern
for Andy, as it is implied earlier on in the film, when Andy is in his scene holding a length of
rope, that he might commit suicide. This close up made me feel concern for Andy as well, as it
made Andy s plight feel more real. The director also uses camerawork to draw attention to
important details, notably tilts and zooms. Shortly after Andy is found missing, we see a tilt from
the Warden finding Andy s shoes in his box, to the Warden s

Qing Dynasty Isolation
Isolation of China by the Qing Dynasty did not benefit the country in the end. Removing itself from
other nations had been in the works since the Ming Dynasty had ruled, and the emperors of the
Qing Dynasty supported isolation as well. China also had strict restrictions with their trade, which
scared many other countries away. In the 1800s, numerous countries finally attempted to escape
Chinas trade restrictions. These effects helped to collapse the already cracking country. At this
point in history, the Chinese only wanted fellow Chinese to be ruler of their country. In result of
the Manchus not being Chinese, rebellions took place habitually for decades. Nonetheless, this was
soon to change. Kangxi was the first emperor of the Qing Dynasty,... Show more content on

These rules included trading at only special ports and paying tribute to China. The only country that
accepted these restrictions, however, were the Dutch. They paid tribute by performing the kowtow
ritual, which involved kneeling in front of the emperor and touching one s head to the ground nine
times. Because of this, the Chinese were in favor of the Dutch, and the latter returned back to their
country with porcelains, silk, and tea.
Great Britain also desired to trade with China but did not respect the restrictions. After the deliverer
of a trade arrangement refused to perform the kowtow ritual to Qianlong, the emperor wrote a letter
back to King George III and said that China was self sufficient and did not need the British. Because
of these events and others, China became more and more isolated from other countries. Later in the
1800s, the British, Dutch, and others attempted to get out of the stronghold that was China s trade
restrictions.
China going into isolation was most likely one of the largest errors done by the country. In
retrospect, it seems like a childish move to make from a prosperous, influential country. In the long
run, going into isolation helped destroy the empire expeditiously. What the dynasty thought would
power the country in the end actually became the reason of its

NFL Case Study
1. Discuss the factors that have resulted in the NFL becoming America s Game and the most
popular sport in the country?
The fundamental reason for NFL becoming America s Game and the most popular sport in the
country is because the NFL was able to market the sport as an entertainment business.
Leveraging television and the fact that American football was only played in America, the
NFL was able to create a holiday feel that was unique and that American s took pride in, as a result
paid more attention to the sport. Another contributing factor was to control the quality of the
product. Making sure that each team had the resources to perform professionally and one team
could not gain absolute advantage was ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
For example Formula One, as teams survive on sponsorship revenue, teams with manufacturer
support have a greater budget to invest in drivers and engineers, ultimately having a more
competitive package, and their greater spending is also rewarded by greater commercial revenue as
the revenue is granted based on performance rather than pooling. As a result, domination by a few
teams is extremely normal in Formula One.
3. Discuss Peter O Reilly s marketing/brand strategy discussed in the case along with Alex and
Matt s comments in class. What do you think has made it successful and offer other ideas on how
the NFL can more effectively build the NFL brand and continue to grow its fan base?
Peter O Reilly s marketing/ brand strategy s main objective was to generate pride amongst
individual, families, cities and the nation. Americans develop a sense of ownership to the sport as a
result invest must more interest into it. The NFL is able to leverage the fact that
American football is not a global sport but has global audience in terms of numbers. By marketing

need to travel anymore. The only other physical preparation varies from a number of things that
are essential and sometimes overlooked by many. The most important steps to survival are those
that are instinct and essential. When the bombs are dropped there is not much time depending
on how far away the bomb is to prepare. Some basic things that most people do not think of like
are opening windows and doors downstairs and filling up pails and bath tubs with water (Frank

the pails and tubs, one will need to find a way to make the radiated water drinkable, or find an

Scoop Summary
In Evelyn Waugh s satirical novel Scoop, a nature writer named William Boot is mistaken for his
far flung cousin, the famous novelist John Boot and sent as a foreign correspondent to the conflict
ridden country of Ishmaelia. After a number of litigious obstacles, he arrives in Jacksonburg,
Ishmaelia, with dozens of other journalists, who spend each day trying to get the scoopto send back
to their respective newspapers. William spends day after day, sending nothing to his newspaper, the
Beast, and gets fired while the others prepare to visit the city of Laku, which, unbeknownst to them,
is a fictional town. William stays behind, and while he prepares his exit from Jacksonburg, he
inadvertently gets wind of a coup d Г©tat that might lead to a communist dictatorship. The city
transforms overnight into a red state, and changes back soon after the accidental death of their
leader, the Consular Benito. In the meanwhile, a mysterious man named Mr. Baldwin buys out the
city and William happily returns to England.
Scoop is a quirky novel that doesn t take itself too seriously, in contrast to the extravagant prose
throughout. There is a quiet humor to Waugh s writing that manifests itself in the quirks and details
of the characters. In our first introduction of the famous novelist John Boot, Waugh writes, John

Keurig Case Study
Keurig Case Study
I. Overview
Meaning excellence in Dutch, Keurig, was founded in 1990 by Peter Dragone and John Sylvan.
The founders were on a highly caffeinated mission to completely alter the coffee industry with the
underlying belief that coffee should be served fresh by the cup. They wanted to bring the gourmet
coffeehouse experience to both the home and the office. Dragone and Sylvan wished to not only
make this possible, but to do so in a satisfying, convenient and efficient way.
In 1998, Keurig released their first single serve brewing coffee machine. The machine could also
serve a cup of hot tea or hot cocoa. In 2006, Keurig merged with Green Mountain Coffee Roasters
(GMCR), which would later lead Keurig to becoming a ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Porter s Five Forces
a) Threat of New Entrants
As competition in the single cup brewing market continues to increase, the barrier to entry remains
relatively low. This encourages competitors to enter the market. The competitors are aware that
creating a lower cost brewing machine that can brew coffee in the pod style (non patented) would
give them a competitive advantage over Keurig, whose products are considered quite expensive.
Three main competitors include Nestle, Starbucks, Kraft and Mars. All three companies have
greater financial, marketing and operating resources.
b) Bargaining Power of Suppliers
Keurig has a low concentration of suppliers, which therefore limits the bargaining power of these
suppliers.
c) Bargaining Power of Buyers
Buyers ultimately have more bargaining power than the suppliers. This is because Keurig will be
more interested in keeping consumers happy so that they can maintain relationships and brand
loyalty. For example, consumers can demand new flavors of coffee that fit their personal preference.
d) Threats of Substitute
The threat of substitutes is relatively low solely because of the fact that there is a limited number
of substitutes. Keurig is the top Single brewer coffee machine.
e) Intensity of Rivalry
Companies are more apt to work with Keurig in hopes of making K cups in their own coffee to be

  • 3. Tearoom Trade Summary Essay Sociologist Laud Humphreys observed men, who were unaware of his topic of research, and used sources from their daily lifestyles as homosexual males, in order to help him create his controversial book Tearoom Trade . Humphreys had the availability to collect the right data by observing the participants behavior, recording their license plate numbers, so he can find their addresses, going to their homes, disguising himself, and interviewing them. When he released his book, a few social scientists claimed that Humphreys researchwas a violation of professional ethics. I am in agreement with the social scientists statement because this project about homosexuals secret daily lives, without the consent and notification of his intentions was deceitful. If I found out that I was a subject of Humphreys project, I would have felt violated and betrayed because he disguised himself and interviewed me as if he was a part of the same lifestyle, and he never told me about the research and the book. I also would have felt I had a major part in Humphreys book because he used my lifestyle to achieve his professional goal without my informed consent.... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Even though, Humphreys lost his teaching contract and research grant, he had informed the public about the men s behavior in public restrooms, so the public can become aware and how to take precautionary measures when going into public restrooms. For example, if a male child needs to go in a public bathroom to urinate or defecate, they must have adult supervision because of homosexual behavior that may occur in the public restrooms. As a result of Humphreys research, mothers and fathers of male children can protect them from witnessing this type of sexual behavior and to ensure the children will not be affected mentally or ...

  • 4. Romare Bearden s The Train Romare Bearden, an African American artist, was born in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 1911. As a child he moved to New York City where his parents were both very involved in the African American community and the Harlem Renaissance. Bearden attended Lincoln University and then later transferred to Boston University. He then proceeded with school and began attending New York University, where he focused more on his art. Later on, Bearden joined the Art Students League where he studied under George Grosz. Grosz was a German artist who was famous for his paintings and drawings. However, Grosz also did collage work that later inspired Bearden to begin creating collage pieces. Although Bearden worked with many different medias, including oils and water color, he was most known for his collages. In his collages, Bearden would depict African Americanlife. Bearden would use different pieces from magazines and combine them together with other media to create a piece that demonstrated a scene of daily African American life.

When speaking about his collage, Bearden said that trains could take you away and could also bring you to where you were. And in the little towns it s the black people who live near the trains . Bearden uses this piece to express how he saw segregation and how it influenced his life.

  • 5. The Effects Of Dyslexia On Children With Dyslexia There is no doubt that reading and writing are vital in today s society. Without basic comprehension skills you simply cannot become educated let alone survive. It was a common belief that anyone who wanted to read, or to learn to read, would be able to, right? With Dyslexia, that is not the case. Dyslexia is described as the difficulty to comprehend language through reading and writing, despite a normal level of intelligence. Dyslexiais not only the most common learning disability, but is also highly recognized. There are three proposed distinctions within dyslexia that includes auditory, visual, and attentional. Understanding dyslexia would help the educational community as long as the medical community. Although the scientific community has extensive research on Dyslexia, there are still neurological aspects to consider and to learn about. Dyslexia is a complex disability that has interested physicians for centuries. Students with dyslexia should not be overlooked and deserve equal opportunities in the classroom. Dyslexia was distinguished in the late 19th century by an ophthalmologist. He coined the term because a child showed much impairment while trying to learn to read, even with normal physical and intelligence. It was first known as congenital word blindness by British physicians. They were confused when a child came to them and was a very smart among his classmates, yet did not know how to read.

  • 6. Ida B Wells Research Paper Ida B. Wells is a name that should always be synonymous with African American modern history. Being born during the Civil War in the South and living her life through Reconstruction, history would play a huge role with her life. So when given the choice of being a background character or to take center stage, Wells found her spot light and shone like the morning sun. The South would do its best to stifle her voice both as child, though she would not know it, and as an adult. Yet Wells would show the strength and determination of an African Americanwoman and prove that she was as much a part of the large scale Civil Rights Movement as her male counterparts. Certain instances in history really help shape who Wells would become. For example, Wells was born ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... While the South would continue to grow in racial violence and inequality, Wells would attend Shaw University (though the president would later expel her) and become a teacher in Memphis, Tennessee (a more progressive area of the South, compared to Holly Springs, Mississippi) Wells would become a major influence in the South after a day in 1883. One Saturday while riding the train into Woodstock, a conductor removed her from the first class car she was riding in, that she had paid to ride in, to put her in the smoking car. She refused to be treated as less than she was and got off the train. She would in turn sue the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Company and win, only to have it overturned. Wells would take this and over the next few years she would speak out about the racial injustice across the South. After the lynching of three men in 1892, she would travel the South and learn of lynching stories in other parts of the South, documenting them as she went. Her writings would end up in African American newspapers as well as her own, the Free Speech. Regardless of losing her teaching job and threats against her life, Wells continued her ...

  • 7. Should Heart Of Darkness Be Taught In Schools Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad is a highly debated book over whether or not it should be read in schools. Many people see Heart of Darkness as a racist book that is blatantly offensive to African Americans, but others view Heart of Darkness as an important book that explores many complex ideas, such as the internal conflict between a man s sanity and insanity, and Conrad s opposition to Imperialism, which was very prevalent during the time the book was written. While the opponents of Heart of Darknesssay that this book should not be read in schools, I believe the book can be utilized in an academic environment. The opposers to this book do make a reasonable and correct point that this book uses very strong language and seems to be racist, Conrad did not intend to convey racist perspectives, rather, taking on that role to further his point towards Imperialism. Although it uses strong language in the book, that was used to show how Europeans viewed Africans during the time period. This should be read in an academic environment because it is a very well written text and can be used to show the effect of Imperialism during the 19th and 20th century....

Marlow is an exaggerated version of the Europeans during the time period. He does this to show the flaws in how proponents of Imperialism felt.

The exaggerated racism of Marlow is to show how close minded Imperialists are and how, they themselves are racist. In this perspective, Conrad is not racist, but fighting for the rights of the ...

  • 8. Traditional Medicine And Modern Medicine Since 7,000 BCE humans were discovered to have used primitive methods to practice medicine and overtime it s become more sophisticated. Medicine, in general, is the science and practice of the diagnosis, treatments, and prevention of disease. It encompasses a variety of evolved methods to maintain and rejuvenate health.

According to Olga Khazan of the Atlantic Roughly 40 percent of Americans owe collectors money for times they were sick (2).

Compare And Contrast Ottoman Empire And Safavid Empires The Ottoman, Safavid, and Mughal empires all contributed to create what is known as the Age of Gunpowder Empires between 1450 1800 (Islamic Empires). Although these empires were thought to be extremely different, the vast amount of similarities within their actions and methods proved to be almost identical. These empires focused their power on military and used new technological advances with firearms; this included the cannon and small arms. The Empires even took it upon themselves to develop a centralized administration. Each administration dealt with the finance, army, and natural resources necessary in order to purchase gunpowder. They were also responsible for the deployment of those arms and for the training of soldiers in order to properly... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The Safavid Empire was a theocracy and its dominant and only religion was Shi a Islam, since all other religions were suppressed. The Empire benefited from its ideal location and the trading that came from its location. The Safavid Empire was strengthened by soldiers from the Ottoman army who had fled from persecution of the Ottoman Empire. The Empire started to decline when it became corrupt. The Safavid Empire was strong in power within its early years due to its ability to conquer new territory. However the huge downfall from these actions of conquering more and more land was the Safavids inability to protect all of the new land they were conquering. Due to this, the military forces became less effective and weak. The Empire became corrupt with its switch to become a Republic in the eighteenth century. The taxes and laws became ridiculous and the people grew more displeased with the empire. The problems the Safavid Empire had were spiritual and political, and due to this was such a huge part to the decline of the Safavid Empire. (Safavid ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 10. The Literary Relationship of Jude and 2 Peter The Letters of Jude and 2 Peter have traditionally been grouped together because they share a direct literary relationship. However, knowing what letter was based off of the other is very difficult to understand. Both letters belong to a collection of epistles at the end of the New Testament which are sometimes referred to as Catholic Epistles. These two epistles both offer practical advice and reflections on the nature of God, the nature of humanity s relationship to God, and the response of a community when confronted with false teaching. The purpose of this paper is to detect the agreements in content or wording between the two letters and discuss whether the letter of Jude was dependent on 2 Peter as a source or if 2 Peter used Jude as a source. Due to the several agreements between the two letters, one can be certain that either the author of Jude or 2 Peter used the other as a source, or both independently used a common source. Reese states that one of the reasons that Jude has often been treated alongside the book of 2 Peter has been because the second chapter of 2 Peter and the main body of Jude share remarkable similarities in style, language, argument and examples. Both books refer to angels who sinned, to Sodom and Gomorrah, and to Balaam (Reese 14). Both letters also remind the readers that people like the false teachers were expected by the apostles. Reese also brings it to her readers attention that although these two epistles are quite short ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 11. Analysis Of Shakespeare s Oedipus Rex Most people who have had a classical education or ever ingested any media in their lifetime have likely heard the name, Shakespeare. A true mogul of the Elizabethan Theatre era, Shakespeare has written 37 plays and over 154 sonnets that are still performed on stages today. Similarly, anyone who has ever picked up a book has read about Sigmund Freudor some of his theories. Freud established many of the modern practices used in psychiatry and taught in psychology classes worldwide. Freud is a pioneer of psychology just as Shakespeare is to literature and theatre. They are two of the greatest minds our world knows, but how are these vastly different scholars related? Freud s theories are not always held in high regard, specifically, The... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Perhaps Hamlet prefers if it was him in his uncle s place. With all the evidence, it is almost as if Shakespeare was hinting at Hamlet s oedipal maternal desires. His attitude and state of mind throughout the story can be attributed to how he feels about his mother remarrying. For example, Hamlet is sulking around in a black cloak as he questions why ``[Gertrude] would hang on [Claudius]/ As if increase of appetite had grown/ By what it fed on (I.ii.347 348). He is very clearly expressing verbally how upset he is when pondering his mother and her new lover, but he is also expressing it physically by wearing black even though his father is But two months dead (I.ii.342). Hamlet s grieving period is over and therefore has no need to wear black anymore. He is wearing black and sulking now because he is grieving his mother s love. For she has moved on and found a new man to bed, thus jealousy ensues. This is something that happens frequently when a new alpha male enters a relationship dynamic, parental or sexual. More evidence of his inappropriate maternal love is shown by the way he treats Ophelia. It is said by Freud and other psychologists that the relationship you have with your lover mirrors the relationship you have with your parental figures. It is no coincidence that the way he batters her with his word and destroys her conscious relates more to the relationship with his mother than that with Ophelia. The power of beauty will ...

  • 12. Foreign Investment And Removal Of Trade Barrier Essay Trade plays a key role in stimulating economies. It promotes sustainable economic growth and development. However, for this to happen there needs to be openness. This paper is going to discuss how increasing the level of openness of developing nations can lead to increased economic growth. The paper will also review some of the dynamic gains that can be made from trade before concluding with a discussion of the roles of global trade organizations in promoting economic development. These discussions will be supported with examples of nations that have excelled in the various aspects that will be discussed. How will increasing level of openness lead to economic growth? Our research shows that openness leads to technological advancement, foreign investment and removal of trade barrier. These factors can all contribute to economic growth. First of all, if a country opens up its door and welcome foreign investors, this is a beginning to future growth. Foreign investors bring in capital and advanced production technology in developed countries. China is a great example of this. Former country chief Deng Xiaoping established a couple of special economic development areas in coastal China cities in 1997. These economic development zones had favorable tax and land policy in order to attract foreign investors. When foreign investors established factories, capital investment and new technology were brought in. Capital investment and advanced manufacture ring technology were ...

In addition, I will explain how it works and how it differs than relational database technology. Furthermore, I will use the finding of the paper Performance Evaluation of a Clustered Memcached to present how Memcached can improve the performance of the web applications. The paper that I did study is about a simulation project of using three different architectures of Memcached. The simulation results will monitor the CPU and RAM usability of all the nodes in these three architectures. I will explain the results and will discuss the findings of their results.

However, the internet technologies and the advents of the smart phones make the web applications to be accessible by many users and from any location that is covered by the internet connectivity. In addition, currently, the web data in the internet is dominated by the social networking and social media applications which include: Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram and others. This kind of web applications will likely be prone to the high load of the database layer.

Self presentation is basically presenting ourselves in ways that make a good impression. Teachers usually need to make a good first impression in front of their students because it usually sets how the students will treat them throughout the course of the year. By being socially intelligent, the teacher can get a read on their crowd so they can respond accordingly. Charisma is one aspect of self presentation that peaks in effective speaking. Women are usually more emotionally expressive than men, but are often constrained by the norms of the workplace where crying and being angry can be a no no.

While chocolate milk contains only eight grams. In an eight ounce glass of chocolate milk there are approximately two hundred calories. A protein shake has 120 calories. A single serving of chocolate milk contains five grams of fat, three of which are saturated fats. The whey protein shake contains one total gram of fat. Both drinks offer many health benefits but, as a post workout supplement a protein shake would be the best choice. When it comes to workout drinks, it is best to look for something with lots of glycogen and protein. The common exercise routine breaks down muscle mass. The muscles in the human body need protein to remain firm, and glycogen to replenish the cells within them. Supplements should be consumed two hours following a workout. Dairy products are not recommended as a replacement for post workout supplements because they can cause vomiting and diarrhea. Therefore, chocolate milk would not be the best to use after physical activity. Although many people prefer post workout protein shakes, it depends on the athlete s preference.

  • 18. The Concepts Of Column Oriented Databases Abstract: This documents explores the concepts of column oriented databases including its applications, advantages, and tools in which it is utilized. We describe how it differs from other database structures, and why it has become popular in the area of data analytics. Introduction The ever widening realm of big data has created an expanding frontier of exploration for the creation of new methods of data analysis in order to produce actionable knowledge for the benefit of organizations everywhere. Companies amass enormous troves of data every day. Keeping this data housed in a fashion that maximizes storage efficiency and in a format optimized for query and analysis is paramount for effective data warehousing. Many database structures exist for the storage, arrangement, and accessing of data, but large databases and online analytical processing (OLAP) benefit from specific qualities. In these databases, compression and rapid querying are the main enabling qualities sought for analytical data stores and data warehouses. Columnar (or column oriented) relational databases (RDBMS) offer these and other benefits, which is why it is a popular database scheme for analytical systems. Specifically, the vertical arrangement of records is optimal for selecting the sum, average, or a count of total record attributes because one horizontal read yields all values of an attribute.

The evident misspelling of the words tonight and about along with the abbreviations of old and with support the poem s bizarre set up. Within the poem Reed constructs a whole new style of writing, differentiating itself from the common structural expectations. A further example of structural uncommonness leading to theme is the various spaces inserted throughout the poem.

The intentional structure is an implied comparison to the void left in the lives of loved ones. Furthermore, by comparing a reader s unwearying attention to a missing person highlights the seclusion caused by the poem s power to captivate its reader.

King s (n.d.) statement demonstrates the major internal impact bystanders can have on others. As a matter of fact, most people do not think about the possible long term effects of not standing up for someone or something. Although it may not seem like a big deal to one person, it could be life changing to another. Many just consider a bystander to be someone who is present at an incident and doesn t take action, but there is actually much more to it. The term bystander can be defined as someone who is present during corruption, does not speak up, and seems not to care about others. By definition, a bystander must be present during an act of corruption, hence the word. If they are not present, they do not have the choice to be a bystander or not since they have no idea what happened. In the novel, Heart of Darkness, Marlow can definitely be considered a bystander, especially since he was present during the corruption involving the Congo people. For example, Marlow has already been to the Congo and has seen the terrible events happening to the people there. And this also, said Marlow suddenly, has been one of the dark places of the earth (Conrad, 1990, p. 5).

The main goal of care ethics is to maintain and promote caring relationships. Care ethics involves helping both yourself and the world around you. It gives you the motivation to care for others beside yourself. Care ethicsaccording to the article is more a general approach than a theory in regards to other ethical practices. The goal of care ethics is to show that women have the same equal rights as men and that they both have freedoms of their own. This is important as this is helping to address equality among the human race. Care ethics as a whole revolves around emotions. Care ethic believers preach that having emotions helps you to think and feel for others. The goal in emotions is to focus on the wants and needs of the one being cared for. They believe through this they can relate to others in their needs. An example that the article gives is the mother child relationship. If a child wants something to eat, the mother of that child knows best what the child needs. This is due to the caring motherly nature that mothers have. Also, caring helps to motivate us to tend to those, even if we are exhausted, and angry.

And for the duration of the tragedy the characters explicitly or implicitly acknowledge their total belief in the directions of the Delphic oracle as the only means of ridding Thebes of the plague. Historically speaking, did the Delphic oracle have such credibility among the populace? For an answer to this question we go to The Histories of Herodotus. Herodotus was called the Father of History by Cicero and others. He lived and wrote in the fifth century BC just like Sophocles. As a contemporary, Herodotus knew and wrote about the beliefs and customs of the ancient Greeks as an historian, not as a litterateur. Herodotus was therefore interested in a factual presentation, not in an imaginative presentation such as Sophocles sought for as a dramatist. Herodotus, therefore, can be relied upon to either substantiate or contradict the validity of the situation in Oedipus Rex where the realism of the drama rests considerably on the claimed belief in the infallibility of the Delphic oracle. Let us examine a portion of The Histories that describes Athens, since Sophocles lived in Athens and wrote for an Athenian audience and even had Oedipus die at Colonnus, a suburb of Athens. In Book V Herodotus describes the engagement between the Athenians and the Boeotians, who were defeated; then another victory for Athens

  • 36. Native American Ethnocide In the article Taking the Indian out of the Indian: U.S. Policies of Ethnocide through Education , Donald Grinde informs us about how white European settlers and early Americans discriminated against Native Americans through the education system. I learned that the U.S built boarding schools specifically for Native Americans, tried to erase Native American history and traditions, and how they later on tried to civilize them by having them conform to their Eurocentric standards. A while back I had read on the internet that the U.S. had built many boarding schools specifically for Native American children. The things that I read seemed terrible and kind of surreal.

This was the way to teach them to be civilized in their eyes. The article even mentions a guy named Alexander H. H. Stuart, who stated that Native Americans were encompassed by an unbroken chain of civilization... and the only alternatives left are, to civilize or exterminate them.

In the current global economy, the foreign investments relations between the U.S. and Japan have been one sided due to the inter Asian business models of the Japanese markets. Japan has traditionally been cooperative with the United Statesin allowing its products to be manufactured and sold in the United States, which has provided some manufacturing jobs in the U.S. This causes problems for the U.S. because they are disadvantaged by one sided trade agreements that decrease job opportunities for American workers, since the Japanese are increasingly moving their manufacturing plants into Asia.

This complex issue defines a major problem for job opportunities for the American economy due to Japan s shift in foreign investment in the Unite States: The Japanese will place more of their emphasis on investment in Asia, leaving less capital to finance United States budget deficits or to buy up American companies or open new factories. Japanese electronic goods and automobiles will not disappear from American shelves or showrooms, but increasingly they will come from factories in Asia, rather than in Japan or the United States (Sterngold, 2016, para.8). In this manner, Japanese foreign investments will begin to shift away from the American manufacturing sector to Asian labor markets. This is an important problem with Japanese foreign investments that continue to seek out lower cost labor markets in order to avoid the higher costs in America: That will mean less job creation in Ohio or Tennessee, as the Japanese start up fewer new ventures in the United States (para.8). This is an important factor in the evolving foreign investment strategies of Japan, which now threaten American job markets in the 2010s.

  • 38. The High Quality Data Gathering System Essay Measured and Monitored In China, as well as other countries, including the United States, controlling the rising cost medical care while providing high quality services (value for money spent) is an arduous task in advancing the cause of imparting universal healthcare coverage to a country s population (Tang, Tao, Bekedam, 2012). This quest is particularly problematic in China with respect to quality, due to a lack of appropriate systematic monitoring which may be considered essential for any type of improvement (Ma, Lu, Quan, 2008). As China has no reliable clinical quality data gathering system, the current extent to which the quality of medical services is measured and monitored consists of graded public hospitals divided into levels based on the inherent resources available to patients (Xu, Liu, Shu, Yang, Liang, (2015). In terms of measuring and monitoring cost control, China has begun to monitor and evaluate pharmaceutical drugs brought into all of the public hospitals, as this is a significant source of the country s health care expenditure, and reportedly obtains some measurement data through the collection of information from national health services surveys (Tang, Tao, Bekedam, 2012), which are only instituted on an infrequent five year basis (The Commonwealth Fund, 2016, p.35).

Notwithstanding their partner s contempt of reading and writing, both the father in The Boat, and the narrator in The Yellow Wallpaper, continue to search for reprieve through their respective books and diary. In addition to the extreme limitations of their daily routine, both characters in MacLeod s and Gilman s short stories are subject to their significantly overbearing and oppressive spouses. The domineering management of their lives compels these characters to engage in either reading or writing, as an act of defiance towards their authority wielding partners. This minor form of rebellion allows the characters to feel as though they have at least some aspect of control over their lives. The father in MacLeod s story is aware of his wife s aversion to and disapproval of reading; however, this antagonism does not deter him from spending all his minimally free time devouring books in his room.

Over the years, the industry had made progress in shortening the approval time and improving the predictability of the approval process. At the same time, industry R D expenditures had increased 12.6% over 2003 in the continuing race to find the next big breakthrough product. Like all biotech companies, MoGen faced uncertainty regarding new product creating as well as challenges involved with sustaining a pipeline of future products. Now a competitive threat of follow on biologics or biosimilars began emerging. As drugs neared the end of their patent protection, competitors would produce similar drugs as substitutes. Competitors could not produce the drug exactly, because they did not have access to the original manufacturer s molecular clone or purification process. Thus, biosimilars required their own approval to ensure they performed as safely as the original drugs. For MoGen, this threat was particularly significant in Europe, where several patents were approaching expiration. Funding Needs MoGen needed to ensure a consistent supply of cash to fund R D and to maintain financial flexibility in the face of uncertain challenges an opportunities.

The first key point I came across was learning how Jesus is our model. The book described how Jesus was not just a spirit guiding us through our lives all though he could have been. Jesus walked this earth and lived out a humanlife. Jesusshowed us how to live the perfect life, and I believe this is a major aspect to carry over to the nursing field. Being a Christian nurse inspires us to be the best version of ourselves. As we reflect on the way Jesus lived we should do everything possible to live out a life like him. Jesus lived the perfect life and as Christian nurses we should strive to be like him. The next thing that stood out to me in chapter one was the closing prayer. It states how Jesus gave up heaven to come down here and save us humans. God and Jesus really both gave the ultimate sacrifice. They both gave up so much to help us humans. To relate this to the nursing field is very simple. God and Jesus gave up everything, so I think it our duty as nurses to help and give back. They sacrificed so much, so being a Christian nurse entails us to sacrifice, give back, and help others just like God and Jesus did for us. As I ponder on the questions at the end of chapter I see how much Jesus really did for us. We learned how to live the perfect life from Jesus.

(Wang and Schonfeld. 2005) Along the same lines, simulation based genetic search can be time consuming but with the advent of new technology and higher speed Processors, this problem is becoming less significant. Existing Studies mainly focuses on selecting and scheduling of projects with the assumption of being independent. There are two approaches which are commonly used for solving project selection and sequencing. The first approach is integer programming (Weingartner 1966; Cochran et al. 1971; Clark et al. 1984; Johnson et al. 1985) and the second one is dynamic programming (Weingartner 1966; Nemhauser and Ullman 1969; Morin and Esogbue 1971; Erlenkotter 1973; Morin 1974).

Martinelli (1993) proposed a heuristic method for selecting and scheduling interdependent waterway investment projects. The results of this method are based on an evaluation to compare various combinations of project implementation over a time period.

  • 45. Analysis Of The Film Shawshank Redemption My chosen scene from the film Shawshank Redemption directed by Frank Darabont, is the scene where Andy escapes from the prison. The scene begins with the guards discovering Andy has escaped and transitions into a flashback of how Andy plotted and executed his escape. Key film techniques in the film are the uses of camera shots/movement, sound, dialogue and symbols. All of these techniques create an intense atmosphere and draw attention to the hidden meanings and messages present in this scene and the filmitself, such as what the rocks and posters mean to Andy on a deeper meaning, outside of just being a distraction. The camera shots and movement in the film are primarily used to emphasize how characters are feeling, highlighting things that are important to both Andy and the audience, and to keep the pace of the film. Close ups in this scene are used to reveal the strong emotions felt by the characters. After the opening of the scene we see a close up of Red looking to Any s cell. The director does this to show Red s profound concern for Andy, as it is implied earlier on in the film, when Andy is in his scene holding a length of rope, that he might commit suicide. This close up made me feel concern for Andy as well, as it made Andy s plight feel more real. The director also uses camerawork to draw attention to important details, notably tilts and zooms.

Removing itself from other nations had been in the works since the Ming Dynasty had ruled, and the emperors of the Qing Dynasty supported isolation as well. China also had strict restrictions with their trade, which scared many other countries away. In the 1800s, numerous countries finally attempted to escape Chinas trade restrictions. These effects helped to collapse the already cracking country. At this point in history, the Chinese only wanted fellow Chinese to be ruler of their country.

They paid tribute by performing the kowtow ritual, which involved kneeling in front of the emperor and touching one s head to the ground nine times. Because of this, the Chinese were in favor of the Dutch, and the latter returned back to their country with porcelains, silk, and tea. Great Britain also desired to trade with China but did not respect the restrictions. After the deliverer of a trade arrangement refused to perform the kowtow ritual to Qianlong, the emperor wrote a letter back to King George III and said that China was self sufficient and did not need the British. Because of these events and others, China became more and more isolated from other countries. Later in the 1800s, the British, Dutch, and others attempted to get out of the stronghold that was China s trade restrictions. China going into isolation was most likely one of the largest errors done by the country. In retrospect, it seems like a childish move to make from a prosperous, influential country.

This encourages competitors to enter the market. The competitors are aware that creating a lower cost brewing machine that can brew coffee in the pod style (non patented) would give them a competitive advantage over Keurig, whose products are considered quite expensive. Three main competitors include Nestle, Starbucks, Kraft and Mars. All three companies have greater financial, marketing and operating resources. b) Bargaining Power of Suppliers Keurig has a low concentration of suppliers, which therefore limits the bargaining power of these suppliers. c) Bargaining Power of Buyers Buyers ultimately have more bargaining power than the suppliers. This is because Keurig will be more interested in keeping consumers happy so that they can maintain relationships and brand loyalty. For example, consumers can demand new flavors of coffee that fit their personal preference. d) Threats of Substitute The threat of substitutes is relatively low solely because of the fact that there is a limited number of substitutes.
