2. Character Motivations in Antigone
The main characters in Sophocles drama, Antigone, are Antigone herself, the play s tragic heroine and
Antigone s uncle and King of Thebes, Creon. Both characters are ruled by powerful motivations and
beliefs; however, they differ from one character to the next.
Antigone s motivation is love for her family she puts it above all else. In fact, she is willing to
sacrifice her life to defend that love. Antigone goes to great lengths to bury her deceased brother, who
according to an edict issued by King Creon, died in dishonor, consequently making it illegal for
anyone to bury his body. Through her actions to comply with her motivations, it is revealed that
Antigone s actions are also fueled by her strong beliefs that, first, the gods laws ... Show more content

3. Anthony Mangeri s Improper Communication Analysis
There is no industry in the world that relies on proper messaging more than law enforcement. For
local governments, there is an acute need to control the flow of information to the community and the
ability to convey the message in a favorable light. In Strategies for a PIO to share Information in
Times of Crisis, (Mangeri, 2016) Anthony Mangeri outlines why planning for a crisis must include the
ability of a Public Information Officer (PIO) to collect, package and be able to disseminate
information quickly. In recent years, we have witnessed the devastating effects of improper messaging
and an organizations inability to control the messaging prior to media sensationalism. In Baltimore,
Maryland a seamlessly routine arrest of Freddie Gray ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Still in control of television and their own company websites, they are no longer the sole controller of
information. Per Mangeri, all organizations must be sure to maintain the capability to communicate
valuable information about evacuation, sheltering, and other important disaster response and recovery
information to the entire community . This statement previously meant the PIO would prepare to
communicate in different contexts to the community. Now, it must also include various forms of social
media being utilized by the different generations of media consumers. For example, most
organizations have incorporated a social media component to their messaging. Facebook, Instagram
and Twitter have all become critical avenues to connect people with those delivering critical
messaging. Facebook Safety Check is a program to help mitigate the panic that ensues during a crisis.
Facebook users can now show themselves as being safe during an incident. This allows family and
friends to be informed of their loved one s status without having to further burden the responding
emergency services. In addition, the responding emergency services themselves can disseminate the
desired information. This can vary from weather advisories to critical incidents. In addition, the Code
Red System, available to first responder is an immediate reversal of the 911 system, which calls and

4. Speech On Love It Is The Most Important
In The Symposium Diotima s speech on love it is the most important, therefore she should be the last
speech to help impact the overall meaning. Although, she actually is not the last speech, Alcibiades is.
This leads to questioning over why Alcibiades is at the end if the speech is just drunken madness.
Diotima s speech focuses on love and places important emphasis on the idea of beauty pertaining to
love. She also focuses on the way a boy and a man s relationship are centered around love because of
the mentorship that they obtain with each other. It does not make sense in a book about love to have
the ending be Alcibiades drunk confessing his love for Socrates.Bataille has led me to the belief that it
does make sense for Alcibiades to be the end of the Symposium because of the objective for humans
to reach continuity through a drunken state of being. After reading Erotism, Diotima cannot be the
final speech in The Symposium.
Diotima could often be read as the most important speech in The Symposium, therefore she should be
the last speech because her speech is based around the conception of love. Socrates begins to question
Diotima about what love actually is. She says: I think that s why love struck you as beautiful in every
way: because it is what is really beautiful and graceful that deserves to be loved, and this is perfect
and highly blessed; but being a lover takes a different form which I have just described. When
someone loves something beautiful, they long for

When you first begin a class you never know what to expect. When I first began Intro to Ministry, I
did not know the level of insight that I would have about myself and about the character of God. I

now to try to paint God s picture in my life to come. Although you do not need to pinpoint the exact
moment in time when you received your call for it to be legible, I am thankful that I do. I think it was
a series of people and events unfolding in my life and God opened my eyes to the plans He had for me
that lead me to that night. The day that I accepted my calling to be a youth pastor (December 30,2015)
I did not go into that evening thinking I m going to listen to God and go into Ministry but I guess you
never do. Since then God has been preparing me emotionally, physically, and mentally through
programs that I have gone through, people in my life such as my friends, family, and professors I have
gotten to know during the short time that I have been at Indiana Wesleyan. I am nowhere close to
being where I want to be but that is the beauty of accepting God s call into any type of ministry, you
do not have to have it all figured out, you just have to trust Him. God is a God of infinite variety, and
His call comes to people in many ways. (Drury, K. Pg.67). I didn t receive my calling in a damascus

6. Theoretical Framework of the Study
As seen in the previous literature, much of the empirical research in the last twenty years has focused
on documenting the positive student outcomes associated with service learning. Despite this focus,
only few studies have also explored the role individual characteristics play in participation in such
outcomes. Susan Jones (2002), for example, finds that the student s ability to actively participate in all
aspects of her/his service learning experience depends on the intersection of the student s own
background. . . , developmental readiness for such a learning experience, and the privileging
conditions that put a college student in a community service organization as a volunteer in the first
place (p. 13). Accordingly, different ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In her conceptualization of student resistance to service learning through the critical developmental
lens, Jones also considers the critical whiteness theory. Frankenberg (1993) describes Whiteness as
multidimensional: First, whiteness is a location of structural advantage, of race privilege. Second, it is
a standpoint and place from which white people look at ourselves, at others, and at society. Third,
whiteness refers to a set of cultural practices that are usually unmarked and unnamed (p. 1). Although
whiteness has intangible systems of oppression, inequality, and unearned advantage that are not
necessary seen, heard, or felt; they reproduce and support the idea that being white is the ideal racial
identity. Butin (2005) examines the dynamics of whiteness and the extent to which student resistance
is conceptualized as occurring due to dominant students rejection of the exposure and analysis of these
same hidden and/or explicit social, cultural, and academic structures and practices of the school that
privilege and sustains white, middle class norms (p. 117). As such, addressing the dynamics of social
inequalities through readings, classroom discussions, and community service visits may confront
students with their conditions of privilege, as well as with new epistemologies that do not necessarily
resonate with students previous knowledge of the world. These

7. The Santa Monica Human Services Division
Though economic inequality and homelessness are major challenges for the city, it does not wholly
define Santa Monica s culture. Overall, Santa Monica s politics are largely progressive and they
translate to the types of people and businesses who call the city home. One resident says Santa Monica
is what happens when hippies get rich (M. Rich, personal communication, May 10, 2017). Hence,
there are many benefits to living and working in this community. Primarily, the various government

This population relies on the clinic for what the clinic calls integrative medical care (M. Lind,
personal communication, May 10, 2017). In addition, the Santa Monica non profit organization OPCC
(n.d.), offers a comprehensive system of care for the vulnerable and needy members of (the)
community homeless individuals, victims of domestic violence, at risk youth, indigent Veterans, and
people dealing with severe physical or mental illness or substance abuse . The organization (which
also partners with the Venice Family Clinic) has multiple locations and offers assessments for all.
OPCC (n.d.) touts the success of its programs, reporting that the organization has placed 966 people
into permanent housing, 95% of whom remain housed. As far as the homeless population, Elizabeth
Anderson of the Human Services Division believes that Santa Monica does more than its fair share in
making shelter beds available year round , especially as compared to greater Los Angeles (personal
communication, April 27, 2017). Santa Monica s Police Department (n.d.) also has a homeless liaison
unit which partners on this issue.

Bulimia and Anorexia. They created an experiment, called Judgment of Silhouettes, where the made a

changes the context. Accordingly, people will negatively evaluate themselves to the degree that their
own body features deviate from an ideal. Several researchers have speculated how mass media
portrayals of body images may lead to an unreasonably thin ideal and corresponding negative self
evaluation, especially for women (Henderson King Henderson King, 1997; Stice, et al., 1994). By

In The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate in chapter 16 the city of Fentress, Texas gets a telephone line that
connects them to the state capitol of Austin, Texas which is approximately 45 miles away. This is a

town without having to drive there. The telephone line is a sign that the city of Fentress is finally
evolving to become a more modern city even though they are taking more time than the larger cities.

This requires an introduction of the comparative advantage concept, an economic theory first
developed in the 19th century by English economist David Ricardo. 3. Comparative advantage
The theory attributes the cause and benefits of international trade to the differences among countries in
the relative opportunity costs of producing the same commodities. In his theory, Ricardo does not see
the fact that one country could produce everything more efficiently than another as an argument
against free international trade.
In the end no one will remain without something to do. Evolving countries like China that have low
wages and therefore lower costs and prices for their products will still leave space for other countries
to produce what they have a certain cost advantage in. This will be decided according to the
distribution of resources for production around the globe. Some countries may have a natural
advantage, by having access to certain natural resources other countries don t have, or an acquired
advantage based on the technology and skills more developed in some countries than others. This way,
all countries will sell and buy products at lower costs than if they were to produce themselves. 4.

12. Diversion Of Angels Performed By Martha Graham
Diversion of Angels was first performed by the Martha Graham Dance Company in 1948 and was
choreographed by Martha Graham. She is well known for her contribution and conception of modern
dance. The choreography was first performed august 13th, 1948 in New London at the Palmer
Auditorium. This dance contains movement and techniques commonly found in Graham s work while
presenting a compelling performance. The dance s core theme is love and its interactions within life
and within others love. Diversion of Angels diverges from previous concepts of dance and does not
have a central story. It has, however, a central concept of interactions of love. In my understanding of
the dance is that each woman represents a type of love. For example, the woman in red moves quickly
and is entrancing. She also had sharp movements that are very dramatic. Her choreography has an
abundance of tilts and raised arms. Also, throughout the dance she overshadows her partner. The color
red also lends the idea that she is powerful and eye catching. These ideas are shown ... Show more

Her chirography contains elongated movements that are slow and flowy. When she moves it has a
conclusion point but is not in no particular rush to get there. When she interacts with her partner, the
man is the driving force. For example, if there was a combination he would make the bigger, perciser
movements while she would make daintier movements. The white is also part of her description. The
dress is flowy and pure white which accents her character of peacefulness. The white also coordinates
with her choreography of wispy movement and contrasts the earthy tones of the other dancers who are
big and precise. The conclusion of her elements and movements lead to her embodying a more
traditional love. To illiterate, she represents a calm, slow burning love that lasts longer than a
passionate love. This is also shown through the stark differences and conflicting dance style of the red

14. A Brief Note On The Civil Service System
Civil service systems are designed to hire and promote members of the bureaucracy on the basis of
merit. The merit principle is the idea that hiring should be based on entrance exams and promotion
ratings to reward qualified individuals to produce an administration of skilled and talented people. All
civil servant applicants must pass an exam that measures skills related to the particular civil service
position they hope to fill. Some civil service exams are general and apply to a wide range of jobs,
whereas others are focused on a particular type of job. I do not see how a merit exam can truly show
how successful a potential civil servant would be performing in a particular position. An exam may be
able to measure the extent of their paper knowledge on the position, but does not reflect how well a
civil servant would be able to apply their knowledge to their job. Standardized tests are often frowned
upon in public schools, with some politicians and scholars arguing that standardized tests measure
how well a student can take the test, and does not measure how much he or she has learned. The same
applies to these merit exams. I do not believe that a potential bureaucrat should earn their government
position through entrance exams. The exam does not measure how successful a bureaucrat would be at
performing their job, but rather measures their test taking abilities. I believe that a potential bureaucrat
should have to partake in a two year long paid internship in their

a bloodbath, with 1000 dead and just as many injured. The Tsar was not in touch with the needs and
desires of the Russian people, so the people disagreed with many of the decisions he made, which in
turn affected his rapport with his citizens. The Royal family s close association with controversial

fair to divert attention away from other people just to attend to the newcomer. Inclusivity means

2. What is absolutism? Explain the top three reasons for its rise in the 17th century Absolutism, where
there is a person who has full political power over a country, rose in the 17th century due to the
increase in surplus, mercantilism and the standing armies. Due to the increase in surplus in these
countries, the government had more money to spend. Mercantilism also contributed to the economic
growth of countries that adopted it. The increased money from these meant increased funding for
standing armies. The standing armies gave the king an army without needing to call on the nobles,
thereby lessening their importance and power, and heightening the king s. 3. Why is Richelieu so
important for French history? Richelieu was important for French history as he strengthened the
French monarchy through the unification of France, lessening of nobles power and boosting economic
growth. Richelieu unified France by making French the national language of France. The unification
of France made it easier for Louis XIII to achieve an Absolutist government. Richelieu minimised the
nobles power, which in turn increased the monarch s power. Richelieu also managed the economic

22. My Experience At High School Classroom
Key Assessment Education 2130 Throughout my observation hours that I completed at South Forsyth
Middle School, I learned many things that I can apply to my classroom when I become a teacher. I
was cultured inside of the classroom to many new techniques and teaching styles that will be
beneficial for my career that is to come. I experienced the classroom in a wide variety due to the
different environments I witnessed during my time observing. Taking my experiences from the broad
array of students, I now feel more prepared for what lies ahead in my teaching career.
My time at South Forsyth Middle School gave me experience with 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. The
students ranged from on level art students to advanced year long students. I came across a trend of
endless opportunities within the classroom for the students. If the students came across a technique or
type of artwork that they wanted to try, the school and Ms. Wood made that happen. She had high
school teachers and college professors present their studies and beliefs to the students in order to
widen their perspectives and outlook on the art community. For example, they had the opportunity to
watch a high school teacher come and create pieces of pottery on the wheel. This can almost give
students a sense of motivation, encouraged them to look past art as they know it, and see the beauty of
art from someone else s perspective.

is credited with being one of the most influential pieces of political theory ever written. His writings
and societal observations on liberty, freedom of expression, and the limit of authority in a free society.
Some of Mill s most interesting claims were regarding freedom of speech for all opinions, a topic very
relevant in the incredibly polarized American system. Mills views are even extended to protect what is
considered hate speech which raises interesting societal questions. John Stuart Mill argues that it is
never right for a government to censor free speech. Yet we do punish hate speech and have rules

Mills of course does not just mean amiable discussions regarding similar opinions but focuses on the
importance of protecting dissenting viewpoints. Mill claims that opinion is compelled to silence, that
opinion may, for aught we can certainly know, be true. To deny this is to assume our own infallibility
(Mills, 88). This is is to protect against what Mill calls social tyranny of the majority. Social Tyranny
of the majority is when the majority viewpoint dominants what happens in a society and silences or
ignores any other minority opinion or idea (Mill). This silencing of discussion can lead to the
stagnation of society as the flow of civilization follows the majority rule and is not advanced through
the development and understanding of dissenting viewpoints. Mill recognizes that truth is a fluid
topic, with every person developing their own truths based off lived experience and what is important
to them, not one person can claim to know the whole truth. Just because the majority views the truth
one way, does not mean the minority is wrong and should not be treated as such. Censoring of these
viewpoints does not make the majority any more correct, it just closes down a way to view something
differently which may improve the majority

25. The European Age Of Enlightenment
The European Age of Enlightenment, a period when great thinkers shared innovative thoughts on the
governance and rights of man, slavery, the ultimate expression of human oppression, was widely
practiced. The development of the Atlantic trade saw millions of Africans, enslaved by white
European societies, shipped to the Americas to live a life void of liberty and dominated by misery, an
existence starkly contrasting Enlightenment ideals. Despite the commonality of the practice, the
Enlightenment movement successfully contributed to the abolishment of slavery by developing the
public sphere, opening the door for discussion and critique of society, the advancement of education
for the majority, and oscillation in social status due to the promotion of economic liberalism. The
Enlightenment was an intellectual movement of the eighteenth century that emphasized the use of
reason and the application of progressive virtues to human society. Men promoting enlightened
principles were determined to progress past the ideals of prior generations and advance the human
condition without regard or reliance on religious systems. Key Enlightenment figures advocated the
improvement of political institutions, enhancement and expansion of education, economic
development, and open mindedness to diverse ideas and beliefs. The Enlightenment maintained that

Only PDO made 100% from bio material and used in health care long ago. However, many cosmetic

Late Term Abortion By Kelsey Holm The Cost of Late Term Abortion We have seen a monumental
amount of political and social activism coming from Pro life and Pro choice proponents in the 25
years following the Supreme Court s landmark decision in Roe v. Wade. Far from settling the issue of
a woman s constitutional right to an abortion, the Roe decision galvanized pro life and prochoice
groups and precipitated many small battles in what many on both sides view to be a war between fetal
protection and women s access to reproductive choice (Oliveri, 1998). Now, the choice to abort a child
in what is now being deemed as late term abortion is something that activists and political leaders are
wanting. This argument goes beyond the political level and is now at the judicial level. This argument
has even gone into the main streets of our society with each side gaining and losing ground. More
recently, we have a presidential candidate who sides with Pro choice and late term abortion. Pro life
activists staged peaceful, nation wide campaign of clinic protests to oppose this cause. The protests
had to be peaceful because of violent conflicts that occurred in the past which led Congress in 1994 to
enactment of the Federal Access to Clinic Entrances law (Oliveri, 1998). This law created specific

Among the many fabulous pieces of art housed at the DMA, there lies a hidden gem that has yet to be

century Parisian anarchist journal, provides not only an insight into popular fin de siècle French print
culture, but also a beautiful case study in the techniques developed by leading artists in the realm of
fine art lithography. It is the goal of this exhibit to explore the place of the graphic arts in early modern
art through the example of this journal, and to examine more closely the stylistic hallmarks of the
lithograph in a more detailed way.
Lithography: Method
Lithography is planographic printing process that makes use of the immiscibility of grease and water.
In the lithographic process, ink is applied to a grease treated image on the flat printing surface. Non
image areas hold moisture and repel the lithographic ink. This inked surface is then printed by means
of a special press as in most fine art printmaking . The earliest though no longer the only method of
creating lithographs involved the use of a block of porous limestone. An image is drawn with tusche a
carbon pigment in liquid form, and litho crayon a type of grease pencil before the printing surface is
fixed, moistened, and inked in preparation for printing. The printing itself is done on a press that
exerts a sliding pressure, and because it undergoes virtually no wear in

Lake, North Dakota to document a camp run by and for Evangelicals. Becky Fisher, the camp s leader,
admits that society ought to indocrinate its children. The word evangelical means fervent or zealous.
Becky Fisher furvently trains the children to develop a one sided perception of the world so they can
take back America for Christ. While all Evangelicals do not behave this way, the directors present a
group of these individuals and what they live for. In Jesus Camp , the directors create a political
context, elements of juxtaposition and symbolism to promote the discussion of the following: when
does education become indoctrination?

Long Island Sound (LIS) is a major urban estuary located along the east coast of the United States. It

the north and Long Island, New York (NY) on its southern shore. To its west it connects to the NY
metropolitan area and to the east it is closed off by Block Island and Fishers Island Sounds. Due to the
restricted transport and dispersal of contaminants, LIS is susceptible to enhanced anthropogenic
impacts. Sewage effluent, industrial discharge, agricultural and urban runoff, atmospheric deposition,
combined inputs from major rivers, and disposal of dredged material are the major routes of
contaminants into LIS (1). There is a correlation that the number of marine systems that become

A. Evaluate evidence that non declarative long term memory is preserved in amnesia.
Amnesic patients tend to suffer from permanent or temporal, normally partial or total loss of episodic
memory and an impaired capacity to form and store new memories. On the other hand, they seem to
demonstrate unimpaired performance of behaviours involving prior experiences on tests which do not
require any intentional or conscious recollection of those experiences (Schacter, 1992). Hence, most
amnesic patients demonstrate the ability to retain and learn new behaviours through priming and
conditioning, and acquire new perceptual, cognitive, motor and emotional skills which cannot be
traced back to an explicit memory but can be demonstrated implicitly. ... Show more content on
Helpwriting.net ...
The combined findings provide the foundation for the hypothesis that there is more than one kind of
memory, or rather that skill based memories must be organised differently from fact based memories
since the former seem to be preserved in amnesia as opposed to the latter.
Further supportive evidence comes from priming studies; priming refers to the improved capacity for
detecting or processing a novel or familiar stimuli based on recent experience (Tulving Schater, 1990).
In a famous study by Heist et al. (1991) amnesic patients and control subjects studied words and non
words. They were then given a perceptual identification test with briefly presented previously studied
and unstudied items. Perceptual priming was measured as the increase in the probability of identifying
the former versus the letter items. Amnesic patients exhibited entirely normal priming for both old
words and non words. On the other hand, they showed significant impairment in recognizing items
that had appeared on the administered test. Priming of non words did not appear to be based on the
activation of words that were phonologically or orthographically similar to the non words. The non
word results suggest that priming can involve the acquisition of new information, rather than simply
the activation of pre existing representations. Researchers concluded that intact perceptual priming in
amnesic patients reflects specific changes

The textbooks need to set out many more classroom activities and exercises. The greatest need is for
the teachers books to be in Swahili. This would be in line with most other countries where the teachers
materials are in the native language, or L1. For instance, in England teachers who teach French have
all their teachers materials in English. This is essential if they are to understand the instructions and

English when Swahili is the commonly understood language. 2
Another problem is the lack of differentiation between the pupils and the allocation of teachers.
There is urgent need to differentiate between the younger pupils and the older pupils; partly because of
the pupils developmental stages but also because of the allocation of teachers. Thus pre primary,
Standard I and Standard II pupils have teachers who are with them all day long and the teachers
allocated to those pupils tend to have lesser subject skills than those teachers allocated to older pupils.

This paper seeks to examine the use of forecasting techniques as it applies to the graduate tuition rate
at James Madison University. While several methods and techniques of forecasting could have been
used, I focused primarily on the Least Squares Regression technique, as it relates to projections, to
project the rates for the next ten years. Projected rates were slightly comparable to actual rates,
though, other techniques are not assumed to reduce the error of projected graduate tuition rates.
James Madison University is a comprehensive university in the Shenandoah Valley of Harrisonburg
Rockingham County, Virginia. Since it s start in 1954, the graduate school has focused its efforts on
the education of its students at a reasonable cost. Although tuition has risen over the years, it can be
assumed that this is possibly due to the rising costs of operation. In recent years, 2009 2014, the cost
has increased by 34% ($305 to $410) for in state students. Similarly, there has been an increase in out
of state tuition by more than 20% ($890 $1095) since 2009. Due to the rate increases over the past five
years, I project that the cost will continue to rise over the years.

Throughout history, authors have played an important role in conveying messages and ideas to the
public. However, it the importance of an author s writings goes beyond what he/she writes, and
extends to how a story is written. One author we can look to as an example of the importance of
writing characteristics is Toni Morrison. Through her use of unique central themes, specific
techniques, and stylistic elements, she made her own footprint on African American literature. These
various elements allowed Toni Morrison to make her stories unique to her, while presenting the
African American community in a new light and delivering Black literature to new audiences across
the country. Morrison s stories tended to place a special importance on African American culture. It
was one of the facets of her stories that remained constant throughout all her writings. While the
setting and time of her stories vary, it seems as though Black culture never truly changes in them. This
shows importance, lasting value, and the ability of culture to be passed down. Oftentimes, African
American culture serves as a guiding point in a seemingly morally lopsided world. However, though
cultural traditions are passed down through the generations, cultural flaws are also inherited. One

41. American Family Dynamics
American Family Dynamics
The make up and concept of what was once considered a traditional nuclear family is quickly
disappearing (Timmerman, 2013). According to Jojic, Raj, Wilkins, Treadwell, Caussade Rodriguez,
Blum (2012), Traditional family roles have changed, and the conception of what Americans consider a
family has likewise shifted with differing societal views regarding gender, gender roles, race, and
ethnicity (p. 128). To accompany the changes being made to the customary view of family dynamics,
the family environment has become an influential psychological aspect of this change (Kwiatkowski,
2010). As evidence continues to expand regarding all of the changes that have occurred, exact reasons
regarding the changes are as abundant as the explanations described in the data.
As the proof increases concerning the reasons for the downfall and declination of the traditional
family structure within the United States of America; new indications arise as to the reason for the fall
of the nuclear family. Various studies indicate various reasons for the changes. Social, economical, and
moral changes have taken place within the United States of America over the past few decades. These
changes have altered the traditional family concept and have historicalized the nuclear family.
The structural changes of families within the United States of America have altered due to economic,

The government should be second to the people, no matter what the orders were. The Jacobins get
their name from the Jacobin Monastery where they frequently met. They wanted a centralized
government and were comprised of cruel hearted people that were more often than not very poorly
educated and poor in wealth that wanted to get involved. While on the other hand the Girondins were
led by Jean Marie Roland and his wife Marie Roland. The majority of the Girondins came from an
area called Gironde, and were much more wealthy and honest as compared to the Jacobins. The
district of Gironde was made up of people of high intellect. The Girondins urged citizens to stop the
violence while Jacobins encouraged the bloodshed. At the begging of the struggle there was a wide
gap between the Girondins and the Jacobins, as the Jacobins were seen as the minority. The Girondins
saw themselves as strong enough to dissolve the Jacobins and may have gotten a little cocky as a
result. The minister of War, Pache switched from the Girondins to the Jacobins in 1972, and just a year
later the king was executed. The Jacobins quickly gained the edge and became the more powerful
force. Now that they had a monopoly they seized and killed twenty two Girondins. In the Girondins
final attempt, Charlotte Corday snuck into Marat s bathroom and snapped him to

The current Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), now in its 5th edition,
defines attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) as persistent cycles of inattention and/or
hyperactivity impulsivity that inhibit an individual s ability to function or interferes with their
development (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). Inattention is said to manifest though
behaviours such as wandering off and difficulty in maintaining focus. Hyperactivity on the other hand,
manifests in an extreme relentlessness at a given activity, or persisting with an activity to the extent
that it wears out others. To be diagnosed with ADHD according to the DSM 5, six or more symptoms

Firstly, the position in favour of the change will be considered, and in particular the similarity between
fully diagnosed ADHD subjects and late onset ADHD subjects. The position against the change will
look at the issue from a biological standpoint arguing that raising the age of onset to 12 years may not
necessarily capture ADHD in individuals; but rather, biological changes as a result of puberty.
According to the DSM 5, an age earlier than 12 was not selected to be part of the requirement for the
diagnosis due to the difficulty for adults to establish precise childhood onset retrospectively
(American Psychiatric Association, 2013). Changes to the age of onset to before 12 years old is
justified, in part, by the similarity between fully diagnosed ADHD subjects and late onset ADHD
subjects. A study by Applegate et al. (1997) compared a sample of youth who met the criteria for
ADHD and displayed impairment before the age of 7, with youth who met the criteria but did not
display impairment. They found that the age of onset varied depending on the ADHD subtype. 18% of
combined subtype and 43% of the predominantly inattentive subtype had no manifestation until after
they were 7 years old. This brings into question the validity of the DSM 4 s definition of the age of
onset. Another study by Faraone et al. (2006) observed that subjects with late onset ADHD resembled
individuals with the full diagnosis in terms of comorbidity,

45. The Cause And Effect Of Leaded Gasoline
Near the end of 1857, President James Buchanan was faced with increasing economic turmoil due to
the Panic of 1857. According to Panic of 1857 on The failure of several important businesses and the
fall in grain prices led to an economic downturn that affected the entire United States, which
Buchanan chose to ignore. This financial slump ended several years later, but the consequences
exacerbated other issues in the U.S., especially the tensions between the North and the South. In 1965,
Clair Cameron Patterson published a scientific paper identifying the problem of lead contamination in
humans and the environment due to leaded gasoline. To his surprise, he found that the gasoline
industry, the government, and even much of the scientific community did not jump to eliminate lead
from gasoline. In fact, it was an uphill battle for Patterson against several powerful corporations to
initiate the phaseout of leaded gasoline. The two situations listed above may seem to be completely
unrelated to each other, and that is generally an accurate assessment. However, both circumstances
have a similarity in that they are issues with roots in economics. Modern observers can identify many
times in United States history during which the government chose not to become involved in
economic issues it could have easily stabilized or prevented. Unfortunately, these problems did not
cease to exist on the chimerical border between the past and the present. In fact, the United States is

Branson s Leadership in Space Tourism
One of the most exciting and innovative projects in the world today is global space tourism. Fittingly,
the Virgin Group is at the forefront of development in this exciting new industry. Finding success in
this highly unknown frontier will surely require exceptional leadership skill and planning (Hawn
2006). Branson would tackle this challenge by communicating his vision to his team and continually
reminding them of it throughout the duration of the project. He is the type of leader that strives to
bring his team members personal satisfaction from the success of a project. Therefor, I believe he
would make an effort to give strong positive recognition to his followers as each major milestone in
the project is reached.
Perhaps his most valuable leadership trait, Branson is excellent at communicating his vision. A project
like space tourism requires a clear and achievable vision, because no other similar project has been
successfully completed in the past. There is no leadership precedent to draw upon, making this
ambitious goal an exceptionally challenging one. Branson will need to use his delegating skills to
