Conclusion For Persuasive Essay
Crafting a conclusion for a persuasive essay can be a challenging endeavor that requires a
delicate balance of summarizing key points, reinforcing the thesis, and leaving a lasting
impression on the reader. The difficulty lies in the need to seamlessly tie together the various
arguments presented throughout the essay, ensuring that they culminate in a powerful and
compelling final statement.
One must carefully consider the tone and language used, aiming to leave a memorable impact
that resonates with the reader. Striking the right chord between persuasion and informativeness
is essential, as the conclusion serves as the final opportunity to leave a lasting impression and
sway the audience's perspective.
Furthermore, the challenge lies in avoiding redundancy while reinforcing the main ideas. It
requires a thoughtful synthesis of the essay's core messages, ensuring that the conclusion doesn't
merely reiterate what has already been discussed but rather adds a layer of insight or a fresh
perspective.
Despite the difficulty, a well-crafted conclusion is crucial for the overall effectiveness of a
persuasive essay. It is the last chance to leave a lasting impression and persuade the reader to
embrace the presented viewpoint. Therefore, the writer must navigate the complexities of
language, structure, and content to create a conclusion that not only summarizes the essay but
also leaves a powerful and persuasive impact.
In conclusion, the art of writing a compelling conclusion for a persuasive essay demands a
skillful blend of summarization, persuasion, and originality. It requires a keen understanding of
the essay's objectives and a mastery of language to ensure that the final words resonate with the
reader. Crafting an effective conclusion is, indeed, a challenging task but one that is integral to
the success of the persuasive essay.

The Laffer Curve, By Mark Koba
So, what exactly is the Laffer curve? According to The Laffer Curve:CNBC
Explains, by Mark Koba , The Laffer Curve is an economic tax theory that argues
that increasing tax rates beyond a specific point would prove to eventually be counter
productive to the economy as well as government revenue. The Laffer curve is a
special graph that depicts the relationship between a government s taxrate as a whole
as well as the number of tax revenue it receives. According to Laffer Curve Center s
article, the Laffer curve is one of the large theoretical constructs of the supply side
of economics. They also go deeper as to say that in simplicity, the Laffer Curve
illustrate a picture of the trade of that dwells between tax rates and the total tax...

The response to revenue to a tax rate change will be reflected on depending on what
the tax system is in place at that specific moment as well as the time period, the
movement of it inside the underground activities, the levels of tax rate that is already
in place, the prevalence of legal and accounting driven tax loopholes, and the
proclivities of the productive factor.
When analyzing the concepts of the Laffer Curve it is detrimental to understand all of
the aspects that make up the Laffer curve. When analyzing it is simple to point to the
idea that if there are no taxes, then there will be no income for the government
revenue. However, one question remains whenever the government decides to set a
high tax. What affect will this high tax have on the governments revenue? Naturally I
assumed that if the government took the action of implementing a higher tax in their
system, then this would mean that they would receive a higher a revenue from the
people. I was wrong in this sort of thinking, because this is generally not what
happens. I have come to find out through research from the article Exploring the
Laffer Curve: Behavioral Responses to TaxationBy: Samuel Kazman that whenever
the government sets a high tax on the people, the causes a sense of reluctance in
them to pay the taxes. No one is willing to give a large portion of their income to the
government, and if they were forced to then this would cause for them to
Reflective Essay On Leadership
Leadership is such a simple term for such a complex phenomenon. As a child, I can
remember adult phrases like natural born leader that contributed to my naГЇve notion
of how leaders are preordained at birth with the gifts or qualities necessary for
leadership, or at the very least nurtured by parents who were natural leaders. As a
result, I never truly felt natural when called into leadershippositions throughout my
life.
As a teenager, I was confused when both adults and peers called me to be their
leader. At sixteen, I finally felt confident enough to try out for cheerleading. Not
only was I given a position on the basketball cheer squad both my junior and senior
year of high school, but I was also voted to be team captain unanimously both
years. But why? What did they see which I did not? A similar curious posture came
when a member of Forbes UMC s, my home church, nomination committee
approached me about becoming an education committee member at age seventeen.
But why? Again and again I was called up to lead in my small social contexts.
College was no different as my second year of cheerleading found our squad in
need of a new captain as the senior captain stepped down from leadership for
academic reasons. Again, it was a unanimous vote. But why? I stress the unanimous
verdicts not to boast, but to highlight a reflection I had not considered until now.
Every time I asked But why? to my leaders and coaches they all answered in a similar
way. My dedication to the cause
Relapse Prevention Proposal
NURSING MANAGEMENT
Earlier studies have stated that continuous monitoring of early signs of relapse and
early pharmacological treatment; especially the early detection of symptoms, showed
desired clinical outcomes in relation to relapse minimization (Spaniel, Novak,
Bankovska et al, 2015). A vital element in daily activities that relies in preventing
episode of relapse is medication adherence. Patients with schizophrenia have shown
that they have a poor compliance in taking their medication (Kurtz et al, 2007).
Improving relapse prevention plan is an important element to achieve an effective
long term intervention of schizophrenia (Kurtz et al, 2007). Moreover, the early
detection or prevention and effective treatment plan are key elements in avoiding
episodes of relapse in schizophrenic patient (The Royal Australian and New Zealand

These are more effective in treatment resistant individuals and have a better effect to
alleviate negative symptoms in comparison to typical antipsychotic agents
(Karandeep Agius, 2012). Typical and atypical antipsychotic drugs difference is
mainly on their capacity to cause extrapyramidal side effects (Meltzer, 2013)
Olanzapine has a better effect on negative symptoms compared to other 2nd
generation antipsychotic drugs (Werner, 2015), and is one of those second generation
antipsychotic medicine approved for the treatment of schizophrenia

mental health, and improves the symptoms. Its primary indication is to treat
symptoms of schizophrenia related to psychosis. It can be taken with combination of

Personal Response To Tikkun Olam
As I write this, it is Rosh Hashanah, the first day of the Jewish year 5778. For the
next ten days, Jews will be introspective, and look critically at ourselves hoping to
improve ourselves. Jews believe in the concept of Tikkun Olam, which translates
loosely to repairing the world; we believe humans have an obligation outside of
ourselves, to the planet and to other people. As my Rabbi sermonized, there are
people suffering across the globe, and whatever we can do, we must do, to
alleviate suffering. However, this idea is not only a religious one for me. My
family worked for civil rights during the turbulent 1960s. My parents worked with
the Fair Housing Council of Los Angeles to desegregate our white neighborhood.
And, after the city of Watts was decimated by riots in 1965, my parents volunteered
at, and my sisters and I attended, a Head Start program there. This was a literacy
pre school program, free for any child, which was largely populated by minorities,
and my parents felt there should be Caucasian representation as well. So, partly
because of my religious beliefs and partly because of my political ones, I believe it is

aid can be used to protect the United States from threats from other nations. Beyond
humanitarian aid, there is a more complex interpretation of what U.S. foreign aid is
and what it does both for the recipient country and America. For example, building
democratic governments in other countries is one strategy for fighting terrorism.
The United States has long had the reputation of using its military forces for good,
such as during World War II when American soldiers helped to defeat Hitler s
Nazism. When dealing with a repressive regime which does not want to engage in

from Randy for $25 each, but does not include the quantity in which he will buy.

A writing is not insufficient because it omits or incorrectly states a term agreed
upon but the contract is not enforceable under this paragraph beyond the quantity
of goods shown in such writing UCC В§ 2 201. Other terms including price,
delivery date and place should be included in the contract. The contract must be
signed by both parties in the event in suing for damages. It is true that Wally did
sign the order form, but in order for the contract to be valid it must have included
the quantity of watched needed for shipment. As stated above, one of the
requirements in the UCC Statute of Frauds states that when writing up a contract
quantity must always be provided, in case of breach of contract. The courts have
no way of factoring in the quantity. The answer to question 1 would be that the
contract was not in writing. Not only did Randy not put the quantity which would
be sent, Wally also never agreed to have Randy send only 50 of the 100 needed.
Randy did not give Wally notice of the change in the contract. As stated in the
UCC, if the buyer fails to make an effective rejection but such acceptance does not
occur until the buyer has had a reasonable opportunity to inspect the good , the only
thing that can be enforced is that Wally must pay for the portion of the watches that
have already been sent because he did not give notice of his change in mind.
According to the UCC В§ 2 201 the contract will become enforceable to the goods
that were accepted and

A Closer Look At Enterprise Rent A Car Essay
Defining the Industry In this industry analysis, we will be taking a closer look at
Enterprise Rent A Car, which operates in the car rental industry. This industry
consists of firms who rent automobiles to consumers for a short period of time.
This company is a part of the larger corporation called Enterprise Holdings Inc. and
is considered to be their flagship brand (enterpriseholdings.com). According to
Enterprise Holdings, Enterprise Rent A Car is the largest car rental firm in the U.S.
and has over 5,800 offices located near ninety percent of the population. While some
people think that the firm only deals with car rentals, Enterprise has multiple
extensions of its business including Enterprise CarShare, Enterprise Car Sales,
Enterprise Truck Rental, Enterprise Rideshare, and Zimride by Enterprise. The
majority of Rent A Car s business, however, involves neighborhood and airport car
rental services. The firm s customer base includes air travelers who are looking to
secure ground transportation upon arriving at their destination as well as people
looking to rent a car from a neighborhood location. Assistant Vice President of
Government and Public Affairs for the company states that roughly $12 Billion is
earned from the airport market and $12B is earned from the neighborhood market

Summary Of Epictetus The Handbook
In The Handbook , Epictetus provides a way of life a stoic should follow to be a
good member of the society, which is a life detached from things one cannot

people to care none about the way others would judge them as he quoted If anyone
tells you that such a person speaks ill of you, don t make excuses about what is
said of you, but answer: He does not know my other faults, else he would not have
mentioned only these. Through this quote, Epictetus wanted all stoics to know all
their faults better than anyone else can say about them. Hence, the person would
not be disturbed by the way the society view him or her as well as would be able to

For instance, he quoted Don t be prideful with any excellence that is not your own.
If a horse should be prideful and say, I am handsome, it would be supportable. But
when you are prideful, and say, I have a handsome horse, know that you are proud
of what is, in fact, only the good of the horse. In this sentence, Epictetus wanted to
teach the stoics to learn to proud of only something they can achieve not
something they own. In fact, this idea helped create a better citizen who would not
become too conceited simply because of something valuable he or she had. Also, a
person would then focus more on how to achieve his or her own success, one
which this person could take pride in. Furthermore, Epictetus wanted the stoics to
put a higher goal before they choose to quit simply because of afraid: Aiming
therefore at such great things, remember that you must not allow yourself to be
carried, even with a slight tendency, towards the attainment of lesser things. In this
quote, Epictetus addressed those who aimed at too small an objective as well as
those who wanted to earn both a great thing and the small one. In fact, he saw a
person who know which goal he or she should aim for would probably achieve a
higher accomplishment and thus became a better member of the

while Australia mostly benefits from exporting mineral fuels, gems, precious

a total of $257.9 billion USD from its exports leaving Indonesia in the dust.
Although Indonesia has showed significant growth recently their quality of life is

Another advantage is that payments will be level and interest rate will be fixed, since
the boards forecast for the future is very pessimistic. The negatives of using debt
through an insurance company have nothing to do with the financing or numbers. It
is the management who was entirely against the idea. They believed that long term
fixed rates were too high, even though they had yet to return to early 1995 levels,
where they were significantly higher. Another problem management had with the use
of debt through insurance was that they did not like that there would be an
extravagant set of covenants. More specifically Ruhl said that he disliked the type of
covenant that could put the company in default without any action of management.
Violation of a debt capital ratio, for instance, explained Ruhl with great relish, could
occur as a result of an adverse year rather than anything we do. (Case Studies in
Finance) Management, Ruhl, was extremely adamant about not agreeing to
something that was out of his control. Ruhl actually preferred the informal loan,
saying it was friendly . This shows how much management does not know about
financial decisions. Spreading the debt out over a longer period of time would
improve the quick and current ratios. (see exhibit 7a) A negative of the loan itself is
that if Padgett were to have the cash to prepay the loan they would face

DISADVANTAGES of Tax Havens
Some people worry about the inaccessibility of their money as it is located in a far
away offshore tax haven. However, in this day and technological age this is not an
issue. With the advent of online banking, it is now possible and, indeed, expected in
many offshore financial centres that their clients will conduct their transactions online.
The main disadvantage for offshore companies located in tax havens is that many
government and governmental agencies will not accept tenders from these types of
offshore entities. These contracts would include defence, civil engineering,
education, health authority and other such civil contracts.
EXAMPLES of tax havens
The U.S. National Bureau of Economic Research has suggested that roughly 15% of
countries in the world are tax havens, that these countries tend to be small and
affluent, and that better

Should tattoo discrimination in the workplace be illegal? This question has become
more important for employers as tattoos are more mainstream in British culture. In
my discursive essay, I will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of company s
allowing tattoos in the workplace, and argue that tattoo discriminationshould be

People have used tattoos to express themselves since the beginning of time.
According to the Journal of Archaeological Sciences, the oldest tattooed human was
dated between 3370 and 3100 BC. There have been discoveries of other tattooed
mummies ranging from Western China all the way to Egypt. Historically, the art of
tattoos has been an integral feature of human life, art, and culture. So it would seem

Lawyers, nurses, and doctors, for example, are all expected to look a certain way,
and perhaps if they were to appear covered in tattoos their patients and or clients
would be uncomfortable. Jon Kelly, in a BBC article entitled Should anti tattoo
discrimination be illegal? , writes that, Words like untidy , repugnant and unsavoury
were all used to describe the perception clients were likely to gain of the
organisation if someone decorated in this way was hired. In other words, people with
tattoos are presumed to be messy, incompetent, and unattractive. Rachel Hennessy of
Forbes magazine backs up Kelly s argument, as she says: In the medical field, having
a tattoo does not impede a person s chance at landing a position, but rules about
covering them tend to be more stringent. Most facilities require a certain level of
concealment during work hours because demonstrating the utmost external
professionalism is key to gaining patients trust. Kelly s argument shows the stigma
people associate with tattoos, as they are stereotyped as unprofessional and
Reflection Paper On Homelessness And Homelessness
When we were first introduced to this assignment, I was both excited and nervous.
I was excited because it gave me the opportunity to step of my comfort zone. I was
also excited to be able to get out into the community and practice some of the social
work skills that we have learned in class. I was nervous because I knew it would be
hard to hear the struggles of a single parent experiencing homelessness. As someone
who was raised by a single parent, I also know how easy it can be to fall into
homelessness. Overall, I think I was more excited about doing this assignment
because I truly did want to hear the stories that single parents experiencing

about people that are struggling with homelessness. Hearing her talk about this broke
my heart because our society should not shame people for being homeless; instead,
we should be looking at solutions to end homelessness. It is a human right to have
basic human needs, yet our society continually provokes their unjust agenda.
Our society also tends to ignore domestic violence, which is something that my

Depleted Uranium
Uranium is utilized in nuclear power plants because of the ability for Uranium 235,
to undergo Nuclear Fission. The energy produced is caused by a reaction between
Uranium 235 and the constant bombardment of neutrons. This method of energy
production creates a uranium rod that has a lower ratio of Uranium 235 to Uranium
238. These rods containing less U 235 are not as reactive as rods rich in the
isotope, causing less and less energy to be produced. This by product is depleted
uranium and is still radioactive, but no longer has any use in the generation of
energy+. In 1991 this by product was utilized during the Gulf War as an armor
piercing round because of it s high density, and ability to ignite+. The use of depleted

Gamma radiation is weakly emitted from depleted uranium+ but the fact that
internalized uranium has direct contact with cells within the human body is cause
for concern. Gamma radiation is a mutagen, meaning that is causes incorrect
replication of DNA within a cell. The incorrect replication in DNA occurs because
the radiation causes free radical to develop within a cell that cause an incorrect order
of nucleotides, and when the cell replicates so does the error. This continued
replication of Incorrect cells can become malignant and cause cancer+. The human
body is resilient and does eject the uranium from the body through
Urban stories
Chungking Express, a film by Wong Kar wai is filmed in loose, imprecise splashes
of motion and colour. This element along with hand held camera work are used to
create an alluring portrait of Hong Kong in the 1990 s. The film, split into two
sections involves two smitten cops along with two objects of desire (one a big
time heroin dealer in trouble with her boss, the other, a flaky waitress who
mistakably gets hold of the keys to her admirer s apartment). The first cop, 223 has
broken up with his girlfriend and as a result goes on to purchase a tin of pineapple

His constant use of reflections and vertical framing helps the audience to interpret the
change of the characters identities. Mirrors make for a visual confusion and could
cause the audience to question whether what they are seeing is reality or simply a
reflection. Vertical framing and multiple images of characters create an aesthetic view
of characters identity and through film language visually portrays them as trapped
within the change and confusion of the cities identity as well as their own.
The repeated theme of expiry helps Wong Kar waito emphasise the anxiety of the
expected changes for Hong Kong in the 1990 s. His constant referencing to objects
and arrangements expiring is shown through his choice of props and framing
devices. The pineapple that 223 buys is an example of this theme, as well as the
plane ticket that Faye gives to 663 with an expiry date of a year from that point. This
constant reminder of expiration reminds us of the countdown to 1997, the Handover
to China. This fear of change is also reinforced through the element of the future and
the fact that the narrator can see outside of the film and tell the audience that things
will change for Hong Kong and therefore the characters lives also, highlighting the
characters anxiety and fear of the change that they are all expecting however having
to learn how to accept it.

Karl Marx and Freidrich Engels Communist Manifesto is one of the world s most
influential pieces of political literature. The manifesto was created for the purpose
of outlining the aims and goals of the The Communist League . The Communist
League was made up of radical proletariats who were fed up with the bourgeoisie
social order and sought to overthrow them. The manifesto is known to have been

The manifesto continues with Marx s belief that capitalism is very unsteady and that
this class struggle between the bourgeoisie and proletariat is inevitable under this
system. But Marx explains that the only means for communism to spread in a society
ruled by capitalism and class distinctions is by revolution. A problem with
Marxism is that this whole concept reflects on creating an imaginary future which
is filled with all the answers to the problems of the workers in modern society. The
only way people will be able to reach this future is by forfeiting all their personal
hopes and dreams for the sake of the proletariat class. Marx undermines the fact
that all people do not share the same desires, and that his idea of upheaval of the
bourgeoisie might not entice the public as a whole. Especially since Marxism
revolutions will meet a violent event in time, where the bourgeoisie and proletariat
will clash. This conflict is not the most convincing means for change (for
individuals who seek a peaceful way of living). As well Marx never gives a good
description for how the proletariat should govern the state once they take power. John
Locke proposes in the Second Treatise on Government that The earth, and all that is
therein, is given to men for the support and comfort of their being. Which raises the
question how could someone differentiate common property

lives we are capable of having, but if we unite as a union to stand up for what we
believe in, we can successfully, positively define our futures. Without the union, the
working citizens will always be treated like animals, but with the union, workers
can one day be treated appropriately. One way in which the union will improve
workers lives is by giving benefits, which means a worker take a day off of work
without getting fired. This also means if someone happened to get hurt on the job,
they could take as much time off as they needed, without their position being
replaced. Furthermore, the union will secure workers with less working hours, so
they have more time to spend with family and doing personal interests. Along with

Before the 19th C, literature in the United States (US) was largely characterized on
the basis of its diverse nature. Using different forms of documentations such as travel
accounts and journals, early European explorers noted down their different
experiences in the New World. Owing to the fact that these new Explorers were very
religious, most of their writings were defined by their religious convictions especially
the Puritanfaith. In addition to these writings being shaped by religion, most of the
narratives revolved around the common phenomenon of slavery. It was the time when

Before the coming of the Europeans, the natives held the best parts of the land and
when these settlers came, they took the fertile lands and most economical viable
lands for themselves. Thus, the economy of the US continued to grow while the
state of the native Indians continued to worsen as they lost their power and
resources. It could not have been possible for the US to have developed in those
exponential terms without acquiring land from the natives at almost no cost. When
the settlers set their feet in the New World, they had one agenda which was to
achieve economic growth of the new land at all costs. It was then achieved at the
expense of the Native Indians who had to be stripped of their land and resources. In
most of the narratives, there is a lot of Puritan religious agenda that is directly based
on the Bible as their religious authority. They base their arguments on the fact that
God promises to freely provide for his children through His grace. This kind of belief
is not found within the Native Indians religious belief system and thus they were
viewed as Godless. In a way, the Western Christian values largely despised on the
religious system of the Indians which heightened the tensions between the two

be a minimum height of 0.5 metres and should not exceed 1.8 metres in height. The
underlying issue that is evident is that the fence between the two was in fact 3

inspection on the fence and discovered that the fence was not in appropriate
condition for it to stay there and he did not take actions to apply for the fence to be

Due to the fact that part of the fence has fallen down, there is no question that there
has to be a replacement built. Because the original fence was over the legal length
of 1.8 metres, the remaining length of the fence has to also be removed as it cannot
be renewed or rebuild back to its original height of 3 metres. Therefore, Robert
should take immediate action in regards to the removal of the rest of the fence that
still current stands. This is due to the fact that the other parts of the oversized fence
could still quite possibly injure someone and or damage something of either Robert s

The Sugar World Informative Speech
Most people believe that Sugar babies who are simply arm candy who are paid to
be pretty and make conversation with them. Most also believe it s easy and anyone
can do it. However, this is far from the truth. In the Sugar World, there are many
things to be careful of, from finding a Salt Daddy or being put into situations where
one s life in danger. The SugarBowl is not as sweet as it seems, and I am going to
broadcast this to the world. To be specific, a sugar baby is a young male or female,
who is willing to give up both their time and affection with a sugar daddy. A sugar
daddy is willing to spoil a sugar baby with gifts, allowance, or travels. In this
instance, both parties get something and it is like a business deal. There are many...

As society usually does, people usually question the morality of a sugar baby and
what she is doing rather than both parties, the man included. People call sugar
babies gold diggers and that they have daddy issues. People well always have
something negative to say about something, but these two are in fact usually not
true for every sugar baby. Much like working a 9 5, sugar babies are investing time
and a positive attitude into a job they are compensated for. The term gold diggers
wouldn t be factual because they are only approached and kept around because of
their looks. If these sugar babies are gold diggers, then the sugar daddy must be
called out for going for a baby that is beautiful and young and only spending time
with them because of their money. When I asked Mariah about when she told her
friends about how she gets quick cash, she told me They asked me how I could
talk to such old guys normally. If I actually liked them, or how it felt when I had
sex with them. These questions were so annoying. It s no different than working a
regular job. Just like they have to smile in rude customers face, I have to smile and
pretend to care about what these oldies talk about. It s a job. I m not really attracted
to these guys, but having money to survive and live? Yea I like the sound of that. I

Essay about Mayan, Inca, and Aztec Civilizations
Mayan, Inca, and Aztec Civilizations
The Mayan, Inca, and Aztec civilizations each originated from Latin America. The
Mayans lived in southern and central Mexico, other Mayans lived in Central
America in the present day countries of Belize, Guatemala, and ancient Honduras.
The Incas lived along the long coastal strip, and in the high peaks and deep fertile
valleys of the Andes Mountains, and along the edges of the tropical forest to the east;
this would be the country of Peru, Ecuador, Chile, Bolivia, and Argentina in present
days. The Aztecs were from Aztlan located in both north and northwest Mexico.
These civilizations were possible because the people in the areas became sedentary
and agricultural. They were able to do this ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net

They did not have a set military hierarchy, they just picked who they thought was best
for the job at that time. Expansion was the cornerstone of the Aztec civilization,
because their religion demanded that a large number of human sacrifices be made
to the gods. To get these sacrifices the Aztec went to war with other tribes; in this
way they captured more slaves for sacrifices and also more land to add to their
empire. The Aztec was a strong civilization who had specialized war chiefs and an
organized system for amassing large armies in a short time. Each Maya City
governed the area surrounding it; some large cities each controlled one or more of
the smaller cities. If the leader died his younger brother or son would succeed the
ruler. This led generations of a single family to rule for hundreds of years. In the
Andes, the Incas, kept their power by providing entertainments and giving luxurious
gifts to the people. The people paid taxes in return for these gifts. The Inca emperor
married his sister and his generals were normally related to him. This ensured a
certain loyalty from them to the emperor. The Aztecs held power through land
ownership.
In the beginning there existed very little political hierarchy in the areas of the
Amazon River Basin; usually they just had a tribal chief. This was because villages
were usually separated by dense forest and jungle. Later
The Monarch Butterfly Essay
The monarch butterfly, as known as Danaus plexippus, is often called the milkweed
butterfly because its larvae eat the milkweed plant. They are also sometimes called
royalty butterflies because their family name comes from the daughter of Danaus,
ruler of Argos. There are many other interesting facts about this butterflyincluding its
anatomy and life cycle, where the butterfly lies on the food chain, the migration from
Canada to Mexico, why the butterfly is being threatened, and lastly, what is being
done to help the butterfly. The anatomy of the monarchstarts with it coloring. The

Finally, the butterfly hangs from the pupa about two hours while the wings dry

s trick to not being eating it two hold. First, the coloring of the monarch mimics that
of a wasp or a bee which makes predators think twice before trying to eat them.
Second, the milkweed plant in which the caterpillar eats has toxins which make the
wings of the butterfly distasteful to predators. The monarch butterfly drinks nectar
while the caterpillar eats the milkweed. The monarch favorite food here in Florida is
Asclepias ssp. or milkweed (Wexler, 1994). The migrating of monarch is because of
the harsh conditions on the northern US. They move south from areas of southern
Canada and most of the US to a few sites in Mexico (Grzimek s, 2003). They migrate
itself usually takes three to four generations of monarchs (Clattenburg, 2004).
Scientists do not know why they migrate, but there are different theories. The first
theory is the change of light in fall (Clattenburg, 2004). While others scientists claim
the monarchs have a chemical in their bodies in which they are attracted to Mexico
where the congregate in certain trees (Clattenburg, 2004). The latter does not explain
why monarchs stay in Southern Florida as permanent residents (Emmel, 1999). Three
different things are endangering the monarch butterfly. First, is the deforestation of

David Osayi s Venetian Spirits Analysis
On Thursday January 12, 2017, I, David Osayi, went to Building F with the class and
viewed the many paintings that were exhibited there. The painting I am choosing to
talk about is Venetian Spirits I by Margee Bright Ragland. I will be discussing the
type of painting, the lighting that surrounds it, the type of frame, the wall the painting
is on, and the flooring beneath the painting. The painting displays two humanoid
deers with human clothes on and one of the two deer humanoids is playing the flute.
Based on the two names in the picture underneath each deer, Ottavio and
Pasquariello, it is safe to assume that both deers are male despite the fact that the deer
playing the flute is in extravagant clothing. The picture was painted with using
Counter-Publicity
It is very important for Christians to adapt to modern American society, especially
when it comes to things like media, and the ever popular political correctness. In
chapter seven, the authors focus on how those who are focused on rhetoric need to
engage in public entertainment, especially when speaking publicly. Public speaking
is not simply spoken words but the act of the speech, or other forms of media, the
agent, or the person who communicates the artifact, the agency or the means of
communicating the act, such as a concert, or public presentation. These critics need
to also be aware of the background or scene behind the act, as well as the purpose or
intent of the message. It needs some form of significance (134). By using these steps,
the critic can effectively... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In chapter nine, the authors focus on how postmodernists believe metanarratives such
as shown in Christian beliefs are oppressive (161). Postmodernists believe the
Christian views are close minded and are not tolerant of others views (162). Many
Christians believe postmodernists are right, and ultimately fall into the trap of
worldly conformity. However, in some ways postmodernists are right about Christian
views, such as Christian beliefs cannot remove all uncertainty from people. Because
of human limitations, there will always be an air of doubt and not everything can be
proven through metanarratives (163). However, postmodernist believe that truth is
culturally relative, meaning that truth can continue to change based on culture (167).
Christians know that one truth is consistent throughout all cultures. Christians need to

The Plastic Pink Flamingo: A Natural History
In Jennifer Price s recent essay, The Plastic Pink Flamingo: A Natural History, Price
uses the idea of the plastic pink flamingo that is strangely popular throughout America
to criticize the present United States culture. As expected from the contrary words
plastic and natural in just the title of her essay, this passage is driven by irony. With
that said, Price uses a satirical tone to criticize the ignorance of American culture.
Price begins her essay with a metaphor. She uses verbs related to the flamingo such as
splashed and flocking, to explain how Americans had made the bird synonymous with
wealth and pizzazz (Price). Notice the contrary

Comparison of The Lottery and The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas
The short stories The Lottery and The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas are both
similar because both stories explain a yearly tradition. Such traditions were kept by
the people to keep the happiness and prosperity of the town. The tradition of the story
The Lottery was to stone the person who won the lottery to death. According to Old
Man Warner s saying, Lottery in June, corn be heavy soon (Jackson 257) after the

Perception is a key component of human interaction. According to Dictionary.com,
the definition of perception is an immediate or intuitive recognition or appreciation,
as of moral, psychological, or aesthetic qualities of others. In the business world, my
co workers would have perceptions about myself. These perceptions; however, could
be impacted by stereotypes. Collins Dictionary defines stereotypeas a fixed general
image or set of characteristics that a lot of people believe represent a particular type

would like people to perceive me. Hopefully, this co worker only perceives me in this
light when joking around. Consequently, I can greatly influence one s perception of
me. Since my supervisor and co worker used positive words to describe me, I never

Stryker Corporation Essay
VALUABLE ASSETS
In the medical sales industry, most of the competitive advantage comes from the
doctor preference. Because of the high cost and amount of time that it takes to learn
how to use a different company s medical equipment, most doctors use one
company s products for life. Stryker has always recognized the existence of brand
loyalty and has made it a top priority to develop excellent relationships with its
customers. Hospitals that use Stryker s equipment are more likely to continue to buy
from Stryker because of their diverse product offerings. The key factors that
differentiate Stryker from its competitors are innovation, reliability, service and
reputation. As of December 31, 2010, Stryker owned approximately 1,125 United ...

38% of its sales come from its MedSurg products segment, which produces medical
and surgical equipment. 17% of its sales come from Neurotechnology and Spine
products, which produces spine and CMF implants, interventional spine equipment,
and neurovascular products.
Stryker continues to have a consistent flow of new products that expand markets.
They just recently bought MAKO Surgical Corp. for $1.65billion, which develops
robotic technology for hip and knee replacement surgeries. As long as Stryker
continues to develop innovate new products and acquire its competition will continue
to gain market share.
Stryker has a Quick ratio of 3.08, which shows it has the ability to meet any short
term cash needs. Stockholders Equity has increased by 8.18% from Q2FY12 to
Q2FY13. This tells me that it is very unlikely that they will face any financial
difficulty in the near future. It also indicates they have the cash flow to continue
growing through acquisitions.
DISRUPTIONS
One disrupter for Stryker and all companies in the med tech industry will be the
new Affordable Health Care Act. The Affordable Health Care Act will include a
2.3% excise tax on medical devices. For Stryker, 2.3% of their revenues is
$100million dollars, which is 20% of their R D budget. This would be a direct hit
and will have a significant impact on Stryker especially since 65% of their revenues
come from the United States. In 2012, U.S.

In the passage, the author describes ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Typically, feeling execrate or passionately hating someone means that you don t have
a friendly or good relationship with the person. Therefore, the author shows that Ellen
never had a good relationship with her dad because of everything he made her and
her mother go through. Next, the author describes Ellen has an unforgettable person,
who clearly has not moved or buried the pass. The author uses countless flashbacks
like the big storm that came before the unfortunate death of her mother. Typically
this means that if other storms were to come Ellen would remember the big storm
that occurred on the day her mother died. Therefore, the author shows that anything
Ellen does is just a constant reminder of the past and unfortunates events like the
way she was treated by the people who claimed loved her. In this next passage, the
creator of this book describes the tone, the narrator uses a very sad tone to describe
her emotions about her family. The author uses crazy when he describes the mental
state of Ellen Foster s family. Typically, this means that Ellen Foster has lived with
a bunch of psychopaths and incapable to love. Therefore, the author shows that
Ellen is expressing a very sad tone about her family when she adds I figure I made
out pretty easy considering the rest of my family is either dead or

The Caribbean Plantation Model
dependencies and mini states that specialize in export of services and relatively high
per capita incomes. The more populous islands and the Guianas still have large
agricultural sectors and relatively low per capita incomes. The economic diversity
within the Caribbean reflects the inequalities and uneven development characteristic
of the world capitalist economy. And intra Caribbeandiversity was addressed in the
plantationmodels. Best Levitt saw regional integration as a complement to changing
internal structures of production and accumulation. The plantation economyschool is
at its strongest when it analyses the coincidence of class and race relations in the
plantation societies and the bases on ethnic antagonism in ethnically plural plantation
societies like Trinidad and Tobago and Guyana. The model is strongest in its pure
plantation economy version where it represents the situation of island economies in
which slave plantation was the dominant unit of production as in British and French
west indies islands. Where slave plantations were not dominant as in the Hispanic
islands or were part of continental hinterlands.
Wolf saw the plantation as a class structures system. He believed that there was an
old style and new style plantation system. On the old style plantation system, the
workers were responsible for producing the surplus and also feed the owner, his
family, service him, and to feed the workforce. The old style plantation system

A Good Teacher Essay
Who is a teacher and what makes a good teacher? By definition, a teacher is a
person who teaches, especially in school, but can anyone be a teacher? That is a
matter of the possession of qualification and the overall talent utilized whilst on the
workforce. Having such qualification simply doesn t create a good teacher, though.
Becoming a good teacher requires work, effort and time that one must be willing
to sacrifice from their daily lives. A good teacher must be able to teach the students
clearly. He/she must be well prepared, whether it is regarding the lesson of the day
or any sudden questions the pupil may ask. A good teacher should have confidence
with themselves and be organized at all times. A good teacher respects his/her job
and tries to be as effective as possible.
But from being a good teacher, there is one higher form of teachers ranking and
that is being a great and effective teacher. Being a good teacher is easy, but being a
great teacher requires more effort than what is usually expected and required. With

  • 2. The Laffer Curve, By Mark Koba So, what exactly is the Laffer curve? According to The Laffer Curve:CNBC Explains, by Mark Koba , The Laffer Curve is an economic tax theory that argues that increasing tax rates beyond a specific point would prove to eventually be counter productive to the economy as well as government revenue. The Laffer curve is a special graph that depicts the relationship between a government s taxrate as a whole as well as the number of tax revenue it receives. According to Laffer Curve Center s article, the Laffer curve is one of the large theoretical constructs of the supply side of economics. They also go deeper as to say that in simplicity, the Laffer Curve illustrate a picture of the trade of that dwells between tax rates and the total tax... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The response to revenue to a tax rate change will be reflected on depending on what the tax system is in place at that specific moment as well as the time period, the movement of it inside the underground activities, the levels of tax rate that is already in place, the prevalence of legal and accounting driven tax loopholes, and the proclivities of the productive factor. When analyzing the concepts of the Laffer Curve it is detrimental to understand all of the aspects that make up the Laffer curve. When analyzing it is simple to point to the idea that if there are no taxes, then there will be no income for the government revenue. However, one question remains whenever the government decides to set a high tax. What affect will this high tax have on the governments revenue? Naturally I assumed that if the government took the action of implementing a higher tax in their system, then this would mean that they would receive a higher a revenue from the people. I was wrong in this sort of thinking, because this is generally not what happens. I have come to find out through research from the article Exploring the Laffer Curve: Behavioral Responses to TaxationBy: Samuel Kazman that whenever the government sets a high tax on the people, the causes a sense of reluctance in them to pay the taxes. No one is willing to give a large portion of their income to the government, and if they were forced to then this would cause for them to
  • 3. Reflective Essay On Leadership Leadership is such a simple term for such a complex phenomenon. As a child, I can remember adult phrases like natural born leader that contributed to my naГЇve notion of how leaders are preordained at birth with the gifts or qualities necessary for leadership, or at the very least nurtured by parents who were natural leaders. As a result, I never truly felt natural when called into leadershippositions throughout my life. As a teenager, I was confused when both adults and peers called me to be their leader. At sixteen, I finally felt confident enough to try out for cheerleading. Not only was I given a position on the basketball cheer squad both my junior and senior year of high school, but I was also voted to be team captain unanimously both years. But why? What did they see which I did not? A similar curious posture came when a member of Forbes UMC s, my home church, nomination committee approached me about becoming an education committee member at age seventeen. But why? Again and again I was called up to lead in my small social contexts. College was no different as my second year of cheerleading found our squad in need of a new captain as the senior captain stepped down from leadership for academic reasons. Again, it was a unanimous vote. But why? I stress the unanimous verdicts not to boast, but to highlight a reflection I had not considered until now. Every time I asked But why? to my leaders and coaches they all answered in a similar way. My dedication to the cause
  • 4. Relapse Prevention Proposal NURSING MANAGEMENT Earlier studies have stated that continuous monitoring of early signs of relapse and early pharmacological treatment; especially the early detection of symptoms, showed desired clinical outcomes in relation to relapse minimization (Spaniel, Novak, Bankovska et al, 2015). A vital element in daily activities that relies in preventing episode of relapse is medication adherence. Patients with schizophrenia have shown that they have a poor compliance in taking their medication (Kurtz et al, 2007). Improving relapse prevention plan is an important element to achieve an effective long term intervention of schizophrenia (Kurtz et al, 2007).

  • 5. Personal Response To Tikkun Olam As I write this, it is Rosh Hashanah, the first day of the Jewish year 5778. For the next ten days, Jews will be introspective, and look critically at ourselves hoping to improve ourselves. Jews believe in the concept of Tikkun Olam, which translates loosely to repairing the world; we believe humans have an obligation outside of ourselves, to the planet and to other people. As my Rabbi sermonized, there are people suffering across the globe, and whatever we can do, we must do, to alleviate suffering. However, this idea is not only a religious one for me. My family worked for civil rights during the turbulent 1960s. My parents worked with the Fair Housing Council of Los Angeles to desegregate our white neighborhood. And, after the city of Watts was decimated by riots in 1965, my parents volunteered at, and my sisters and I attended, a Head Start program there. This was a literacy pre school program, free for any child, which was largely populated by minorities, and my parents felt there should be Caucasian representation as well. So, partly because of my religious beliefs and partly because of my political ones, I believe it is of importance to the moral,...

Beyond humanitarian aid, there is a more complex interpretation of what U.S. foreign aid is and what it does both for the recipient country and America. For example, building democratic governments in other countries is one strategy for fighting terrorism. The United States has long had the reputation of using its military forces for good, such as during World War II when American soldiers helped to defeat Hitler s Nazism. When dealing with a repressive regime which does not want to engage in democracy military force may be necessary.

Business is booming and Wally needs to buy a large quantity of Rolek watches which sell for $50 apiece. He calls Randy Rolek, the wholesaler located in Milwaukee WI. They discuss terms on the phone for a while before coming to an agreement in which Wally offers to buy 100 watches for $25 each. Randy sends over an order form in which Wally states that he is agreeing to purchase watches from Randy for $25 each, but does not include the quantity in which he will buy.

A writing is not insufficient because it omits or incorrectly states a term agreed upon but the contract is not enforceable under this paragraph beyond the quantity of goods shown in such writing UCC В§ 2 201. Other terms including price, delivery date and place should be included in the contract. The contract must be signed by both parties in the event in suing for damages. It is true that Wally did sign the order form, but in order for the contract to be valid it must have included the quantity of watched needed for shipment. As stated above, one of the requirements in the UCC Statute of Frauds states that when writing up a contract quantity must always be provided, in case of breach of contract. The courts have no way of factoring in the quantity. The answer to question 1 would be that the contract was not in writing. Not only did Randy not put the quantity which would be sent, Wally also never agreed to have Randy send only 50 of the 100 needed. Randy did not give Wally notice of the change in the contract. As stated in the UCC, if the buyer fails to make an effective rejection but such acceptance does not occur until the buyer has had a reasonable opportunity to inspect the good , the only thing that can be enforced is that Wally must pay for the portion of the watches that have already been sent because he did not give notice of his change in mind. According to the UCC В§ 2 201 the contract will become enforceable to the goods that were accepted and

A Closer Look At Enterprise Rent A Car Essay Defining the Industry In this industry analysis, we will be taking a closer look at Enterprise Rent A Car, which operates in the car rental industry. This industry consists of firms who rent automobiles to consumers for a short period of time. This company is a part of the larger corporation called Enterprise Holdings Inc. and is considered to be their flagship brand (enterpriseholdings.com). According to Enterprise Holdings, Enterprise Rent A Car is the largest car rental firm in the U.S. and has over 5,800 offices located near ninety percent of the population. While some people think that the firm only deals with car rentals, Enterprise has multiple extensions of its business including Enterprise CarShare, Enterprise Car Sales, Enterprise Truck Rental, Enterprise Rideshare, and Zimride by Enterprise. The majority of Rent A Car s business, however, involves neighborhood and airport car rental services. The firm s customer base includes air travelers who are looking to secure ground transportation upon arriving at their destination as well as people looking to rent a car from a neighborhood location.

For instance, he asked people to care none about the way others would judge them as he quoted If anyone tells you that such a person speaks ill of you, don t make excuses about what is said of you, but answer: He does not know my other faults, else he would not have mentioned only these.

For instance, he quoted Don t be prideful with any excellence that is not your own. If a horse should be prideful and say, I am handsome, it would be supportable. But when you are prideful, and say, I have a handsome horse, know that you are proud of what is, in fact, only the good of the horse. In this sentence, Epictetus wanted to teach the stoics to learn to proud of only something they can achieve not something they own. In fact, this idea helped create a better citizen who would not become too conceited simply because of something valuable he or she had. Also, a person would then focus more on how to achieve his or her own success, one which this person could take pride in. Furthermore, Epictetus wanted the stoics to put a higher goal before they choose to quit simply because of afraid: Aiming therefore at such great things, remember that you must not allow yourself to be carried, even with a slight tendency, towards the attainment of lesser things. In this quote, Epictetus addressed those who aimed at too small an objective as well as those who wanted to earn both a great thing and the small one. In fact, he saw a person who know which goal he or she should aim for would probably achieve a higher accomplishment and thus became a better member of the

Another advantage is that payments will be level and interest rate will be fixed, since the boards forecast for the future is very pessimistic. The negatives of using debt through an insurance company have nothing to do with the financing or numbers. It is the management who was entirely against the idea. They believed that long term fixed rates were too high, even though they had yet to return to early 1995 levels, where they were significantly higher. Another problem management had with the use of debt through insurance was that they did not like that there would be an extravagant set of covenants. More specifically Ruhl said that he disliked the type of covenant that could put the company in default without any action of management. Violation of a debt capital ratio, for instance, explained Ruhl with great relish, could occur as a result of an adverse year rather than anything we do. (Case Studies in Finance) Management, Ruhl, was extremely adamant about not agreeing to something that was out of his control. Ruhl actually preferred the informal loan, saying it was friendly . This shows how much management does not know about financial decisions. Spreading the debt out over a longer period of time would improve the quick and current ratios. (see exhibit 7a) A negative of the loan itself is that if Padgett were to have the cash to prepay the loan they would face

This question has become more important for employers as tattoos are more mainstream in British culture. In my discursive essay, I will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of company s allowing tattoos in the workplace, and argue that tattoo discriminationshould be illegal. People have used tattoos to express themselves since the beginning of time. According to the Journal of Archaeological Sciences, the oldest tattooed human was dated between 3370 and 3100 BC.

Lawyers, nurses, and doctors, for example, are all expected to look a certain way, and perhaps if they were to appear covered in tattoos their patients and or clients would be uncomfortable. Jon Kelly, in a BBC article entitled Should anti tattoo discrimination be illegal? , writes that, Words like untidy , repugnant and unsavoury were all used to describe the perception clients were likely to gain of the organisation if someone decorated in this way was hired. In other words, people with tattoos are presumed to be messy, incompetent, and unattractive. Rachel Hennessy of Forbes magazine backs up Kelly s argument, as she says: In the medical field, having a tattoo does not impede a person s chance at landing a position, but rules about covering them tend to be more stringent. Most facilities require a certain level of concealment during work hours because demonstrating the utmost external professionalism is key to gaining patients trust. Kelly s argument shows the stigma people associate with tattoos, as they are stereotyped as unprofessional and
  • 20. Reflection Paper On Homelessness And Homelessness When we were first introduced to this assignment, I was both excited and nervous.

I was also excited to be able to get out into the community and practice some of the social work skills that we have learned in class. I was nervous because I knew it would be hard to hear the struggles of a single parent experiencing homelessness. As someone who was raised by a single parent, I also know how easy it can be to fall into homelessness.

My thoughts have stayed the same about homelessness; however, I certainly have started to acknowledge that homelessness is a very real thing. I also try my hardest to recognize that these individuals are people; therefore, I now make it a point to at least make eye contact with them on the street. Social Justice As I stated before, far too often our society ignores that homelessness is a struggle for many people. Additionally, our society often thinks these people choose to be homeless. Terra talked about an incident at a gas station, and how one of the employees at the gas station said all the people at across the street are drunks and addicts. She talked about how upset she gets when people have these misconceptions about people that are struggling with homelessness. Hearing her talk about this broke my heart because our society should not shame people for being homeless; instead, we should be looking at solutions to end homelessness. It is a human right to have basic human needs, yet our society continually provokes their unjust agenda. Our society also tends to ignore domestic violence, which is something that my mother and Terra both faced. Terra could not get any help with service providers because her children and her were not in immediate danger; although, Terra certainly knew they were in danger. Social justice is helping

Mirrors make for a visual confusion and could cause the audience to question whether what they are seeing is reality or simply a reflection. Vertical framing and multiple images of characters create an aesthetic view of characters identity and through film language visually portrays them as trapped within the change and confusion of the cities identity as well as their own. The repeated theme of expiry helps Wong Kar waito emphasise the anxiety of the expected changes for Hong Kong in the 1990 s. His constant referencing to objects and arrangements expiring is shown through his choice of props and framing devices. The pineapple that 223 buys is an example of this theme, as well as the plane ticket that Faye gives to 663 with an expiry date of a year from that point. This constant reminder of expiration reminds us of the countdown to 1997, the Handover to China. This fear of change is also reinforced through the element of the future and the fact that the narrator can see outside of the film and tell the audience that things will change for Hong Kong and therefore the characters lives also, highlighting the characters anxiety and fear of the change that they are all expecting however having to learn how to accept it.

The manifesto continues with Marx s belief that capitalism is very unsteady and that this class struggle between the bourgeoisie and proletariat is inevitable under this system. But Marx explains that the only means for communism to spread in a society ruled by capitalism and class distinctions is by revolution. A problem with Marxism is that this whole concept reflects on creating an imaginary future which is filled with all the answers to the problems of the workers in modern society. The only way people will be able to reach this future is by forfeiting all their personal hopes and dreams for the sake of the proletariat class. Marx undermines the fact that all people do not share the same desires, and that his idea of upheaval of the bourgeoisie might not entice the public as a whole. Especially since Marxism revolutions will meet a violent event in time, where the bourgeoisie and proletariat will clash. This conflict is not the most convincing means for change (for individuals who seek a peaceful way of living). As well Marx never gives a good description for how the proletariat should govern the state once they take power. John Locke proposes in the Second Treatise on Government that The earth, and all that is therein, is given to men for the support and comfort of their being. Which raises the question how could someone differentiate common property

Before the coming of the Europeans, the natives held the best parts of the land and when these settlers came, they took the fertile lands and most economical viable lands for themselves. Thus, the economy of the US continued to grow while the state of the native Indians continued to worsen as they lost their power and resources. It could not have been possible for the US to have developed in those exponential terms without acquiring land from the natives at almost no cost. When the settlers set their feet in the New World, they had one agenda which was to achieve economic growth of the new land at all costs. It was then achieved at the expense of the Native Indians who had to be stripped of their land and resources. In most of the narratives, there is a lot of Puritan religious agenda that is directly based on the Bible as their religious authority. They base their arguments on the fact that God promises to freely provide for his children through His grace. This kind of belief is not found within the Native Indians religious belief system and thus they were viewed as Godless.

Neighbourhood Disputes Resolution Act Of 2011 Introduction Neighbourhood disputes are a common occurrence to this day with many types of issues regarding aspects such as fencing, building, tree and property issues continually being arisen in suburban areas. The Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal (QCAT) is an establishment that contains certain laws and rules which help resolve any issues that are to come up between one or more parties. The main source of act that will be used most commonly throughout this piece is the Neighbourhood Disputes Resolution Act of 2011 which acts as a source of providing rules about each neighbours responsibilities and rights for dividing fences and trees so that they are able to resolve the issue without involving any legal actions. There will ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In regard to s. 13 of the (Neighbourhood Disputes Resolution Act , 2011) it states that the fence that divides the properties between Robert and Charlie is considered to be a sufficient dividing fence , which is stated as a fence for adjoining land of two section of residential land . The act states that a sufficient dividing fence should be a minimum height of 0.5 metres and should not exceed 1.8 metres in height. The underlying issue that is evident is that the fence between the two was in fact 3 metres in height which is well over legal limits. In addition to this, Robert had an inspection on the fence and discovered that the fence was not in appropriate condition for it to stay there and he did not take actions to apply for the fence to be removed. Due to the fact that part of the fence has fallen down, there is no question that there has to be a replacement built. Because the original fence was over the legal length of 1.8 metres, the remaining length of the fence has to also be removed as it cannot be renewed or rebuild back to its original height of 3 metres. Therefore, Robert should take immediate action in regards to the removal of the rest of the fence that still current stands. This is due to the fact that the other parts of the oversized fence could still quite possibly injure someone and or damage something of either Robert s and Charlie s property, which luckily for Robert s instance didn t happen when the

People call sugar babies gold diggers and that they have daddy issues. People well always have something negative to say about something, but these two are in fact usually not true for every sugar baby. Much like working a 9 5, sugar babies are investing time and a positive attitude into a job they are compensated for. The term gold diggers wouldn t be factual because they are only approached and kept around because of their looks. If these sugar babies are gold diggers, then the sugar daddy must be called out for going for a baby that is beautiful and young and only spending time with them because of their money. When I asked Mariah about when she told her friends about how she gets quick cash, she told me They asked me how I could talk to such old guys normally. If I actually liked them, or how it felt when I had sex with them. These questions were so annoying. It s no different than working a regular job.

The Mayans lived in southern and central Mexico, other Mayans lived in Central America in the present day countries of Belize, Guatemala, and ancient Honduras. The Incas lived along the long coastal strip, and in the high peaks and deep fertile valleys of the Andes Mountains, and along the edges of the tropical forest to the east; this would be the country of Peru, Ecuador, Chile, Bolivia, and Argentina in present days.

Expansion was the cornerstone of the Aztec civilization, because their religion demanded that a large number of human sacrifices be made to the gods. To get these sacrifices the Aztec went to war with other tribes; in this way they captured more slaves for sacrifices and also more land to add to their empire. The Aztec was a strong civilization who had specialized war chiefs and an organized system for amassing large armies in a short time. Each Maya City governed the area surrounding it; some large cities each controlled one or more of the smaller cities. If the leader died his younger brother or son would succeed the ruler. This led generations of a single family to rule for hundreds of years. In the Andes, the Incas, kept their power by providing entertainments and giving luxurious gifts to the people. The people paid taxes in return for these gifts. The Inca emperor married his sister and his generals were normally related to him. This ensured a certain loyalty from them to the emperor. The Aztecs held power through land ownership. In the beginning there existed very little political hierarchy in the areas of the Amazon River Basin; usually they just had a tribal chief. This was because villages were usually separated by dense forest and jungle. Later

First, the coloring of the monarch mimics that of a wasp or a bee which makes predators think twice before trying to eat them. Second, the milkweed plant in which the caterpillar eats has toxins which make the wings of the butterfly distasteful to predators. The monarch butterfly drinks nectar while the caterpillar eats the milkweed. The monarch favorite food here in Florida is Asclepias ssp. or milkweed (Wexler, 1994). The migrating of monarch is because of the harsh conditions on the northern US. They move south from areas of southern Canada and most of the US to a few sites in Mexico (Grzimek s, 2003). They migrate itself usually takes three to four generations of monarchs (Clattenburg, 2004). Scientists do not know why they migrate, but there are different theories.
