Essay On New York
Writing an essay on the topic of New York can be both a daunting and exciting task. The
difficulty arises from the vastness and complexity of the subject matter. New York is a city with
a rich history, a multitude of cultures, and a myriad of facets that contribute to its unique identity.
The challenge lies in capturing the essence of this dynamic city within the confines of an essay.
It requires a delicate balance between providing historical context, exploring the diverse
neighborhoods, delving into the cultural tapestry, and reflecting on the ever-evolving nature of
the city. Additionally, conveying the energy, pace, and vibrancy of New York in written form is
no small feat.
The research required is extensive, ranging from historical archives to contemporary sources, and
demands a keen understanding of the city's social, economic, and cultural dynamics. Crafting a
coherent and engaging narrative that does justice to the multifaceted nature of New York while
maintaining a focused and structured essay is a significant challenge.
Moreover, the risk of clichГ©s and superficial observations looms large, as New York has been a
popular subject for countless essays. It necessitates a fresh perspective and a thoughtful analysis
to avoid falling into the trap of regurgitating well-worn stereotypes or generic descriptions.
In conclusion, writing an essay on New York demands a deep dive into its history, culture, and
the ever-changing urban landscape. It requires skillful navigation through a sea of information
and the ability to present a compelling narrative that captures the essence of this iconic city.
Despite the challenges, the process can be immensely rewarding, offering an opportunity to
explore and appreciate the multifaceted beauty of New York.

An Essay On The Natural By Bernard Malamud
The choices that we make today will impact our tomorrow. Whether we realize it
or not, every single time we do something, we are making a choice. Many of these
choices are subliminal, such as the direction we walk or the way we carry
ourselves, but some choices impact the way people look at us. More importantly,
some choices impact how successful we are in various things. I chose to write
about choices because choices are single handedly the most important thing in the
world. Everything we do on a daily basis is a choice, and choices are important to
me as a person because they are something I am trying to get better at. The choices
made in preparation for assorted events are undoubtedly the most important choices
that can be made in our... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
As people always say, Hindsight is 20/20 , but if we would look forward in time
and plan instead of making gut decisions, making better decisions and choices
would definitely be easier to do. Robert Frost said it best in his poem, The Road
Not Taken , when he said, Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps
the better claim (Frost). This shows that when Frost got to a fork in the road, he
sat down and evaluated both options before making a selection. He looked at the
path on the left and then the path on the right so he would know exactly which
choice to make and how that choice would work for him. This applies to
everybody. When there is a big choice to be made, we need to evaluate every
option and then look into the future to see how the options will benefit us later. If
at the time a choice seems perfect, but there is no future benefit, why make that
choice? If everybody has a common goal to be the best person that they can be and
to be as successful as they can in life, the choice that is made needs to be a thirty
day or thirty year decision, not a thirty second decision. Choice is defined as the act
of selecting or making a decision when faced with two or more possibilities . Choices
are not optional. We do not even know we are making a choice most of the time.
Every second we make a choice. We make a choice of what to look at, listen to, or

Never Let Me Fate
Most people plan their future out for themselves, getting the education they need to
grow up to do what they love. However, in the novel Never Let Me go by Kazuo
Ishiguro, things are uniquely different for the children at Hailsham. The children who
attend Hailsham are clones, who have had their entire future planned out for them by
society, to donate their vital organs for humans who needthem. Even though this may
seem like a terrible situation to be born into, the clones do not try to change their fate,
and acceptit with little resistance. One of the reasons that they accept this as their
fate, is that they are simply raised with the idea, therefore it is all that they know, it is
normal for them. Also, they do not have the proper upbringing... Show more content

They spend most of their life with the idea that this is normal, and this is what they
are made to do. Due to the fact that they have been raised with this mindset they
have no outside perspective on how people outside of Hailsham live their lives.
Without any idea of how other people live their lives, they may have no problem
knowing that this is their fate, because they don t have any idea of what they could
be doing with their lives if they didn t have these restrictions. I can see ..that it
might look as though you are simply pawns in a game. It can certainly be looked at
like that. But think of it. You were lucky pawns. There was a certain climate and
now it s gone. You have to accept that sometimes that s how things happen in this
world. (Ishiguro, 266) The guardians at Hailsham treated the children as regular
people to give them the most normal life possible, by reassuring the children that
their situation could be seen in a positive light the children would become accustomed
to the idea that there was nothing they could do to change their fate and ultimately
decide to view their situation as a good thing. Nobody bothered to try to change
things, because they didn t believe there was anything wrong that needed to be
Essay on Frank Lucas; American Gangster
Frank Lucas; American Gangster What is the one thing every person, white or
black, rich or poor, American or Hispanic, wants to have plenty of in their
possession? If it s green, flimsy paper with different values on the front then money is
the answer. Whether it s 19th Century, 20th Century, or 21st Century, people work,
steal, worship money. Human beings aren t always satisfied with the amount of
money they have, so they work harder, steal, rob, or cheat hoping to satisfy their
money obsession. This describes the efforts and actions of an American Gangster

The same goes with Satan. He begins to realize that trying to be on top isn t going to
be easy, for now the thought/ Both of lost happiness and lasting pain/ Torments him.
(1. 54 56). Both Frank Lucas and Satan realizing there power thirst comes with major
consequences they didn t expect. Both Satan and Frank Lucas give the reader and
audience an intrigue that is likeable. Frank Lucas has this way of carrying himself
as the man around town, no one messes with him but fear him. That s power that
people are gravitated towards to like, being the center of the world. Also this
intrigue rubs off onto Frank s brothers. They are canceling there dreams in there
mind because they want what Frank has, rich and fame. Satan also has that
feature. The way he believes he can be equal to God makes you feel his
confidence. You are intrigued in his decision making and are curious to see if he
succeeds. He also is good at rubbing this business of his to other angels who end up
following him. People look up to them and want what they have. In the end, both
Frank Lucas and Satan have the urge to be the most powerful person, have it all,
but don t succeed like they had hoped. Frank Lucas gets caught and put in jail, and
Satan has to keep wishing he could have equaled the Most High (1. 40). While they
are both hated by the world they live in,
Attractive Industries
Attractive Industries Michael Porter s Five Force Model is one of today s leading
models on how certain forces that arise within industries creates change in both a
negative and positive aspects. Many executives use his model to analyze the
different industries and see where there may be a potential star performers and
utilize their current company s capabilities and resources to enter that new industry
in a successful manner (Daft, 2007). His model can also help companies move into
other market segments and help prevent others from joining in afterwards. The
strength of the five forces varies from industry to industry, and can change as an
industry evolves (Hill Jones, 2008).

Price wars are the result of strong rivalry between companies which only benefit the
consumer, but have dramatic affects on returns. However, low rivalry creates an
opportunity because there are fewer suppliers which allow the few select
companies to charge higher prices which give a better return (Hill Jones, 2008).
The extent of rivalry depends on four factors. The first is the competitive structure
which means that rivalry is determined by the number and size distribution of
companies in its industry. Each composed of different numbers and sizes. It is
comparable to that of a pyramid; there are more fragmented small and medium
businesses on the very bottom. Above that are a small number of large companies
and at the very top there is a monopoly (Hill Jones, 2008). The second is demand
conditions. If the market demand is growing more people are buying or the same
buyers are purchasing more. Since more money is flowing in rivalry will decrease,
but if demand goes down rivalry goes up. The third is cost conditions in markets
that have fixed pricing where no matter how efficient a company is there is a fixed
cost which they must intern pass on to customers and they only way to increase
profits is to increase the volume of sales. If sales are low firms can not cover the
fixed cost to make the product which means the they either have to lower prices,
increase marketing, or a combination of the two (Hill Jones,

Ancient Egypt. This civilization, now modern country Egypt, became unite at around
3150 BC in Eastern North Africa. Three of the important things about ancient Egypt
are Religion, Art/Architecture/Culture/Tradition and Education. The ancient
Egyptian Religion changed and evolved many times. During the early Pre Dynastic
Period, gods, were generally, embodied in a certain animal. In the Old Kingdom, the
sun cult was upgraded and the sun temple was as well as a little pyramid. During this

By mummification, the Egyptians believed they were guaranteeing themselves a
successful rebirth into the afterlife. The reason for that is that the ancient
Egyptians believed that a human being is made of 6 essential parts: the physical
body, the shadow, the name, Ka (the soul), Ba (the personality), and the Akh
(immortality, everlasting life.) All except for Akh are part of a person at birth.
Firstly, a person can t exist without a shadow and a shadow wouldn t without the
person. Secondly, the name, which was given to a person at birth and as long as
that name was being called, the person was still alive. Ka lived in the real world
and the tomb was it s. Ba can be described as the personality. Ba comes into
someone s body at birth and leaves when they die. It was capable of taking
different form and shapes and moved freely between the underworld and the real
world. Akh, however, was the part of a human that would stay with the gods in the
underworld forever. (6) Ancient Egyptians believed in afterlife and that afterlife
was a holy blissful place: heaven. This place was called the land of the Two Fields.
Dying wasn t enough to get one to this heavenly land. A person had to earn a place
in Ra s boat. In order for that to happen, one s heart had to be light. Firstly, people
had to pass the test of heart in the Hall of Maat.
Diction In Silent Spring
Poisons such as parathion are known as universal killers, which kills thousands of
wildlife each year. In the book, Silent Spring, written by a noted biologist Rachel
Carson, she argues that deadly poisons, that are meant to kill annoying creatures, are
a hazard to the humans, domestic animals, as well as wildlife. She also argues that
farmers are ignorant to the radiating damage of the poisons like parathion, which
can cause long term effects on both humans and the environment. She argues that
through the use of dark and war like diction, characterization, as well as rhetorical
questions. Carson uses dark and war like diction throughout the passage to express
the intensity and seriousness of the problem with the application of parathion to
the environment. She used words such as killing , death , and deadly in the book
to express how harmful and hazardous these poisons are to various of creatures in
the environment, including us. She tries to persuade her audience through the
multiple usages of these words since they express darkness and death which makes
people afraid and understand the harmful effects of the poison. We can also see
that she used war like diction like direct target and mission of death in order to
convey the message that we are fighting against creatures that annoy us as if we are
in a war with them. By using these words in the passage, she tries to make us aware
of the fact that we are waging war against creatures that are not a real life
Buffy The Vampire Slayer
Buffy the Vampire Slayer hush is one of the unique episodes from the series
because instead of having dialogue theres more musical cues. Theres an

creature can be stopped is if a woman screams. But the group has to fight the
monster voiceless which is Ironic because its the only way it can be stopped so no
one else looses their voice. In the story we can see how Buffy Summer seems to be

As soon as they hold hands, the vending machine slams against the door. It was
super shocking to witness this because for a moment I thought tara seem to be a
memetic character. This episode follows a Restricted Narration seems to be the
outgoing theme on this story because we know what is happening alongside them.
We don t see whats happening to those character who aren t as important in the
series but rather we get to know the life of those who are the central of attention
throughout the scenes. For example, a television news reporter states that everyone
in Sunnydale has come down with laryngitis and the town has been quarantined.
Knowing trouble is looming that night. But after this we don t know anything
more about this reporter. The only difference I see its at the end where everyone
seems to be getting their voices back. Also another drawback was when Buffy was
getting trapped by one of those evil monsters. Overall this episode really portrayed
a lot of different characteristics. It was a really different than what I usually watch.
Some of the stuff in this episode were kind of unpredictable I usually like to watch

Kritios Boy Contrapposto
The term contrapposto refers to an Italian word meaning counterpoise, and it is
used to in the visual arts industry to illustrate a human figure standing with most of
its weight on one foot so that its shoulders and arms twist off axis from the hips
and the legs . It was an essential sculptural development since it involves the use of
the human body in the western art to express physiological disposition. One of the
legs is responsible for carrying the weight, and it is called the engaged leg while the
relaxed leg is referred to as the free leg. Besides, contrapposto creates an illusion of
movement in the past and the future. It is possible that the Kritios Boy with its

After an hour of frustration and an inability to find a topic for this qualitative
gender portrayal, I gave up and decided to play video games to relax. All of a
sudden, I sat staring at my TV screen completely dumbfounded as a nearly nude

reasons, I was inspired to qualitatively analyze Grand Theft Auto V focusing
specifically on genderstereotypes and sexualization present in the game. In order to
accurately depict the video game s portrayal of gender I studied both the story mode
and online mode looking closely at the actions and speech, physical appearance, and
prevalence of females within the game.

Things Done Well During The Presentation
Things done well
During the presentation there were examples provided from the textbook to allow
the trainees to capture what was being presented and said. This allowed for them
to see what was being taught. It was also helpful that there were examples provided
during the presentation to allow for a real life experiences in the workforce,
making everything more relatable to each individual in its own unique way. There
were also instances where trainees were asked questions and to engage them
throughout the process of training. This would allow them to constantly think,
especially when there were pop quizzes throughout. Trainees were also able to ask
questions during the entire presentation, allowing for people to have their answers
answered at any point. In order for this to succeed we had to prepare beforehand so
that the questions would be answered as effectively and as clearly as they could.
Having handouts that had the slides with room to write notes on the side allowed the
audience to make notes and to write ideas. We also provide quizzes that were
interactive throughout the presentation on the slides. This allowed us to ask the
question, and afterwards there were animations that showed the audience which
answer was the right one. It was a little bit of a learning curve, but it was done clearly
and effectively after some research had been performed. By implanting new ideas into
presentations, it not only allows the presenters to learn something new, but it also
Our Mutual Friend Literary Analysis Essay
In Our Mutual Friend, Charles Dickens takes on an impersonal narrative of a
brother, Charley, and a sister, Liz, in the street after the she rejected his best friend s
proposal. This launches Charley into a tantrum of emotion that which he tries to
make up for. The emotion and motives behind Charley s attempts are revealed
through diction, syntax, and choice of detail, as he tries to convince his sister. One
device that Dickens utilizes with Charley is diction. His choice of words directly
conveys his immediate emotional response, then the persuasion. One example of this
is Charley s physical reaction, You were obliged to tell him, repeated the boy angrily,
between his teeth, and rudely pushing her. These descriptive words paint a picture of
an enraged and seemingly upset man. Additionally, Dickens also incorporates words
that convey Charley s to patronizing and controlling personality. Hear her! exclaimed
the boy, looking round at the darkness. This shouting further heightens the tension.
However, when Charley starts to realize that anger is not going to convince his sister
Dickens states, Some touch of compunction smote the boy s hardening heart as he
looked upon her, (...) His tone relented, and he drew her arm through his. This
contract in diction from hardening heart to his tone relenting, indicating that Charley
is going to change his tactic. His following points further prove this shift in diction,

Back Bay Battery, Inc.
Overview
The battery industry is enormous, with worldwide revenues of approximately $45
billion. It is highly fragmented with at least 20 major manufacturers in each
technology segment. Because of the wide range of applications of batteries,
companies have tended to specialize in a particular technology or market
application. Disposable batteries, such as the widely available carbon zinc and
alkaline cells, are available in standard sizes such as AA, C, and D, and they are a fast
moving consumer good category with emphasis on manufacturing efficiency and
scale, marketing and branding, and distribution efficiency.

Interestingly, battery makers have tended to focus in relatively narrow product

major players in rechargeables, and rechargeable battery manufacturers tended to

(laptop computers, mobile phones, portable power tools, etc.)
Back Bay Battery, Inc., in 2012
Back Bay Battery is one of over 20 major manufacturers of NiMH batteries. The
field is crowded, but manufacturers have been riding rising a tide of demand from
consumers for portable electrically powered devices.
Though the technology is relatively mature, the company is anticipating continuing
strong volume growth rates, primarily due to rapid consumer adoption. The
worldwide market is projected to grow at 9.0%. Pricing pressure is significant,
though, as more East Asian competitors continue to drive commoditization of NiMH
cells. Back Bay s sales manager has learned to track the market pricing closely, as
being out of step with the market can cause dramatic market share changes in a
relatively short time.
Li ion batteries have pretty much replaced NiMH in the market for laptop computer
batteries.
The first commercial Li ion battery was produced by Sony in 1991. Li ion batteries
are favored for mobile devices because they can store a high density of energy for a
given weight. They can be fabricated in many shapes,

the same. A purpose defines the reason a process begins. The initiator, or the sender,

(About.com, 2011). On a good day, walking into a business to solicit a different
product, service, or partnership opportunity means that a decision maker has been
spoken with and an additional appointment may be established so that decision
maker can have more available time to hear what is being pitched. More than
likely, however, a card or name will be collected with contact information and that
particular individual must create a method of re contacting those potential
business opportunities at a later time. Through the use of VOIP, or voice over
Internet provider as a less expensive way for a business to have phone services, a
call is made to create a relationship that could potentially provide additional
opportunities. The salesperson acts as the sender with the purpose of selling his
company s products or services. The receiver should be the decision making contact
that had been collected while cold calling. The environment is more than likely a
cubicle to personal office setting and depending on how the day of that decision
maker is going will determine if the noise becomes too distracting. If the message is
delivered successfully, hopefully that salesman will receive positive feedback.
In this particular situation, the message and technology used are appropriate given
the environment and purpose because unless that salesperson makes face to face
contact on the initial visit, phone and e mail will be that individual s only available

Analysis Of Benjamin Peters s The War
First, I would like to mention how a veteran who is now a pacifist, Benjamin Peters,
has also impacted me. Awhile back I came across a video series that Mennonite
Central Committee has on YouTube of him speaking at the youth convention in
Kansas City. I was curious to see how soldiers dealt with their faith and these videos
helpful for me to start to understand through one person s journey of reconciling with
what it meant to be a Christian in the military. Ben s story was a great resource that
helped me understand Ken s experience, so I ve referenced him a few times.
The desensitizing of soldiers was something that Ken kept going back to. The US
military tries to dehumanize the enemy so that it s possible for soldiers to kill on
command. Without this process many people would have a hard time pulling the
trigger. Ken referred to the shirt the military made him wear and how they would
make him yell blood to the enemy. Ben Peters talks about how the military has to
teach you to hate, dehumanize, and view people you are fighting as others. He goes
on to describe the process: We never refer to the Iraqis as Iraqis because it creates to
much cognitive dissonance...and complexity in the brain to extend humanity to the
enemy; so I have to see you as an ugly, dirty, stinky middle eastern animal and only
then can I kill you. (Mennonite Central Committee U.S. Ben s Story, Chapter 2: Boot
Camp ) This us versus them mentality is the complete opposite of what Shalom
means. In

As they grow steeper and steeper, they face more challenges along the way. In
addition, little did they know that the more they would travel to California, both
Tom s grandparents would die. Steinbeck goes on to say, And now a light truck
approached, and as it came near, the driver saw the turtle and swerved to hit it
(Steinbeck 15). Just as this chapter reveals the turtle s constant struggle, the subject of
the turtle is a direct metaphor for the Joad family, as they are hit with many
challenges, such as the Dust Bowl and unemployment, and within these disasters
they must discover they need to carry on alongside the many hardships they face.
This is how the turtle represents the Joad s constant diligence in the midst of
struggles. Just as this happens, there would be people waiting for the Oklahoma
travelers to come across their way, and they would make fun of them, calling them
Okies, and as this was happening, these people who made fun of them were similar
to the driver who swerves to hit the turtle. Regardless, the Joad family must learn to
stand firm in the midst of the adversity they face. Steinbeck demonstrates this the
best way through his character Jim Casey, and Steinbeck first introduces him by

there are different meanings and interpretations.
For example, in Disloyal Order of Water Buffaloes , the lines So boycott love/ Detox

think it may be bad for them and other people and love isn t the kindest of things.

they are boycotting love just to keep themselves safe? And if you look at the
second line, Detox just to retox could also have different meanings. It could be
about some addicts: they may just abstain from something just to retox, or go back
to it again. But, also it could be about how people aren t perfect and they try to
detox only to go back to it. And, when you look at both lines it could be someone
trying to boycott love or leave a person and boycott their love. And people detox to
rid themselves of something toxic, and love can be toxic in the case of toxic
relationships. And quite often, many go back to their abusers which could be what
Detox just to retox could allude to. This is just the writer s take, it could mean
something else to someone else.

We Were The Underdogs Of The American Revolution
War, blood, anger, hate, peace, independence, tax, massacre, pioneering, and
confusion are all words that can be used to describe the American Revolution. A
time where we were most vulnerable to the British. A time where America was
once one of the lower nations in the world. Infact, we were not even a nation yet.
We were a group of people fighting oppression that had been cast upon us by the
British. We were the underdogs, and we should not have ever had to get into a war,
but we did. We got into war to protect the values and beliefs that we held dear.
America got into war to show the British that they can not use them like property.

act like royal subjects. The colonists took it upon themselves to fight for their
individual rights and get these taxes repealed by the British Parliament. This led to
growing tensions between the British and the colonies. A tension which would soon
erupt and cause a war that would allow for the colonies to gain their independence

Syntactic And Morphological Skills In Autism
Introduction The focus of the study was on how children with autism develop
syntactic and morphological skills and if they apply alternative ways of learning such
as memorization techniques in order to make up for the lack of normal
morphological processing and if they learn grammatical morphemes in an unusual
form. Previous studies have proposed the idea that children with autism present
unusual syntactic and morphological skills; however, there is not sufficient
information available on this topic. Existing studies have yet to indicate how these
skills differentiate to children with developmental delay without autism. Moreover,
the question of this research is important for deciding whether language impairments
are merely linked to autism or developmental delay. Three different hypotheses were
presented by the researchers of this study. The first hypothesis explained that children
with autism would obtain lower scores on the tests measuring morphological and
syntactic skills than children without autism and developmental delay. The second
hypothesis was that children with autism would obtain lower scores on the tests
measuring the ability to apply plural... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This hypothesis was not supported by the results. When looking for differences
between the three groups in their ability to use plural inflections to non words, none
were found. It was suggested that not fully understanding the task and its
requirements was a possible cause for the normal developing children to obtain a
large variety of scores. The results reveal that the groups with autism and
developmental delay without autism both have difficulty applying past tense
inflections which may create the task of applying past tense inflections to non words

The Impact Of Financial Doping
2.4.3 Financial Doping
With high levels of financial losses encroaching the world of football, the need to
spend in order to compete developed a phenomenon known as financial doping. This
is a situation in which an owner of a sports franchise invests their own personal
wealth into securing success, rather than relying on revenue generated via the
franchise related activities. This reflects on what Sloane (1971) says that football club
owners are utility maximisers rather than profit maximisation. Being motivated by
success as their clubs participate in prestige competitions, some may argue that their
investments are not sustainable and the impact of sugar daddies has been titled as
financial doping (Muller et al., 2012). A significant proportion of debtaccumulated in
the league is in the form of soft loans , which is low or zero interest loans from the
clubs owners. These soft loans will rarely be called in, which differentiates them
from loans taken out from a bank. The severity of financial doping in English
football has been referred to as a melting pot with teams such as Liverpool,
Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea all receiving financial support
from their billionaire owners. With external sources of money being introduced into
the game, it highlights how football is able to stay afloat and thrive despite making
substantial financial losses. The APFG in 2009 noted that there were severe doubts

Th That Long Silence By Shashi Deshpande
Women in Indian society belong to the category of the unprivileged, the suppressed,
the downtrodden and the marginalised. She has been suffering for long being
socially, politically as well as financially marginalised. In simple terms a woman in
Indian society is deprived of opportunities and freedom to go with her own
preferences and choices and thus marginalised at every front. Womansuffers some or
other sort of marginalisation whether she is educated or illiterate, dependant or
independent, traditional or modern, rural or urban. Despite of our advance in the 21st
century, women in our society is still subjugated and placed at a secondary position to
men. She has to follow the path of men whether her father, her husband or her son
forgetting her personal identity. Women s struggle for identity and emancipation has
long been treated as one of the major thematic concerns in Indian English writings.

at two parallel levels the lower class women of least means and the financially
independent middle class women. Both the categories are essentially women as their
struggles are the same; they face the same challenges of not being understood by the

The Study Of Ancient Dna
The study of geologically ancient DNA began in 1984 with Russell Higuchi and a
handful of other scientists. Hoping to determine whether ancient DNA survived and
could be retrieved from samples of preserved soft tissue, they examined samples of
dried muscle taken from a museum specimen of the quagga. Their attempts to extract
genetic material were successful, and the samples yielded slightly less than 1% of the
DNAthat would have been yielded by fresh muscle; from this, they successfully
sequenced two pieces of mitochondrial DNA (Higuchi and others, 1984).
They then compared the resulting sequences to the mitochondrial DNA of a living
mountain zebra and determined that the two species had a common ancestor between
three and four million years ago, a finding consistent with fossil evidence of the
Equus genus (Higuchi and others, 1984). This marked the first time that ancient
DNA was successfully extracted and sequence, thus sparking an entirely new
discipline within paleontology: the study of ancient DNA.
The importance of this event is not to be underestimated. Prior to the sequencing of
extinct quagga DNA, the bulk of our understanding of past life forms comes from
the fossil record. Pruvost and others (2006) argue that analysis of DNA samples
retrieved from the fossil record stand to vastly increase our knowledge about the past.
It has incredible potential to answer many questions posed by studies in archeological
anthropological disciplines. Furthermore, Yang (2005),

He was next placed as an engraver in April 1725. His master was also a violent
man like his father who fed Rousseau poorly and often treated him harshly. The
young boy developed a menial frame of mind. This apprenticeship lasted for about
four years with the first half consisting of stealing and a lackey spirit, and the
following half Rousseau s love for reading was revived. The more miserable he
became with his master, the more he read. He would play with the other boys on
free days, usually Sundays, and venture out of the city gates. He often came home
just before the drawbridge closed at sundown and twice had to sleep outside the
city. On day on March 14, 1728, Rousseau was late and saw the drawbridge closing.
He yelled to his uncle he would not be returning to his master. Bernard did not try
to stop the boy, who was just over sixteen when he decided to make his journey.
After wandering for several days he fell upon the Roman Catholic priests at

Another example of a good friend is someone who have a moral value. A friend
who care his reputation and afraid to lose it. Moral values are something parents
need to educate their children at home. By lecturing the children, the basic values, it
can cause children in young age to understand and learned about moral values. Thus,

The Abolitionist Movements Then and Now
To what degree is labor humane? As a whole, the members of our society have
never questioned if the way we live life is unjust. In 1830, a group of people
recognized these wrongful ways. They spoke up and voiced their opinions on the
way Americans were treating black individuals. But was slavery genuinely wrong?
According to many members of society in the 1830 s, no, slavery wasn t wrong. It
was a way of life. After Lincoln abolished slavery in 1865 slavery has only been
thought about as a moment in history. Now in 2017, we live in a free country, where
no one is a slave. Or so we thought. Human trafficking is a growing issue in the world
today. There are approximately 20 to 30 million slaves worldwide, of which 80% are
women and children. The Polaris Project is one of the many organizations that is
helping eliminate human trafficking today. The abolitionists and the Polaris Project
have similar movements, as they both fight against forced human labor. The Polaris
Project is more successful in using rhetorical appeals as they are making a substantial
difference in ways the abolitionists did not.
Although both movements had differences, they also had many similarities. One of
the main comparisons were the goals of each organization. Both organizations (the

For Ovid, love was all the more regularly saw as an unsafe, destabilizing power than
a positive one. Ovid exhibits that love has power over everybody mortals and gods
alike. Nobody can maintain a strategic distance from its belongings, or oppose the
threat and wretchedness to which love frequently drives us. Indeed, even The God
of Death, Pluto, is moved by love. Love overpowers reason and ethical quality: a
person in love may be urgently attracted to a sibling, a father, or even a bull. The
transformations in Metamorphoses frequently take after from the interests or the
impacts spurred on by love (Metamorphoses I, 240 285). The power of love to
metamorphosize can be as quotidian as pregnancy ladies shapes and parts change
because of being impregnated, a typical aftereffect of a love relationship and as
fabulous as inhuman transformation. Jove goes up against the shape of a bull, in
his assault of Europa, keeping in mind the end goal to satisfy his desire; Apollo
changes into his beloved s sister with a specific end goal to get to her. In addition,
those sought after by love mad gods likewise change themselves with an end goal to
escape undesirable considerations; maybe the most well known of these
transformations is the transformation of Daphne into a shrub tree when Apollo seeks

The Effect of Temperature on the Starch Hydrolyzing Ability of Aspergillus Oryzae
Amylase and Bacillus Licheniformis Amylase
Lab section: U28
Abstract
The optimal temperature range of bacterial amylase, Aspergillus oryzae, were found
and compared to the optimal temperature range of fungal amylase, Bacillus
licheniformis, by testing the ability of the enzymes to hydrolyze starch after being
exposed to different temperatures. The starch hydrolyzing ability of both the
fungal amylase and the bacterial amylase was determined by mixing both
amylases with starch and placing several tubes of the respective mixtures in four
different temperatures each. Over the span of minutes, samples would be taken
from each of the tubes and would be mixed with iodine. Due to the tendency of
starch to color into a dark blackish blue when combined with iodine, the degree of
starch hydrolysis was then determined using a color coding scheme. The optimal
temperature for both Aspergillus oryzae amylase and Bacillus licheniformis
amylase was found to be within the 25 degree to 55 degree Celsius range. More
specifically, the bacterial amylase seemed to hydrolyze starch more effectively as it
spent more time exposed to the 55 degree Celsius temperature, whereas the fungal
amylase seemed to work the best mostly when it had been exposed to the 55 degree
Celsius temperature for 8 minutes. Within the resulting

Hedda Gabler Analysis
Hedda is a play written by Carol Brown and adapted by Max Hunter. The play is set
in a dark room centered around five characters, depicting how they react and
communicate with each other through their individual dark fantasies. The play was
produced as an adaptation of Ibsen s Hedda Gabler in a modern day and age version.
It portrays an absurd and darkly comedic perspective of playwright and actress Carol
Brown, disrupting the conventional assumptions about classic theatre while injecting
the familiar with spontaneity and vitality, bridge the divide between the plays of then
and the audiences of now . As such, it dismantles and exploits an audience s
expectations of mundane theatre. By restructuring and reimagining scripts, utilizing
mixed media, and blurring genre and theme, the play creates an experience that is
visceral, stimulating, and immediate. Each character embodies a certain emotional
and inner psychological struggle that is triggered by one another, pertaining to
themes of perverted self love, suicide, self destruction, deprivation, angst, desire for
freedom, desire to be loved, women in society, wealth and success, sexuality,
manipulation and borderline mental illness. Hedda, the daughter of General Gabler
and married to George Tesman, seems to be miserable, craving entertainment through
unremorseful manipulation of Eilert Lövborg, Thea Elvsted and Judge Brack. As
far as costume design, each character s outfit portrays its personality. Hedda, is

suggests all living creatures came from the earth s bed. Their culture seems to be
naturalistic; they might have been farmers and herders because of their credence in
everything sprouting from the ground. Although both Native Americans and Africans
conjectures were relatively different, they did share one comparison. They both were

the earth was created by them. So it was, in truth, that they created the earth. Earth!
...they said, and instantly it was made. (From the Popol Vuh pg.14) This presumption
of creation came from the Mayans. They believed the forefathers the Creator, the
Maker, Tepeu, and Gucumatz whom were immortal, created the animals and the first
man. They thought that there was only a sky and a sea before the earth came about.
There was nothing standing; only the calm water, the placid sea, alone and tranquil.
Nothing existed. (From the Popol Vuh pg.14) This folk tale suggests that the Mayans

The Black Hills Of South Dakota
Lets take a trip back in time to 1884 in the Black Hills of South Dakota. A New York
lawyer had just traveled there to inspect mining claims in that region. The man s
name was Charles E. Rushmore. Rushmore was curious by one of the mountains and
asked a towns person what the name of the mountain was. The towns person replied
saying it had no name. From then on Charles Rushmore started calling it Rushmore
Peak. Over time it became known as Mount Rushmore(history.com). During the
following years the area of the Black Hillsdecided they wanted to start attracting
tourist the region. I the early 1920s the state historian of South Dakota, Doane
Robinson, came up with an idea to attract tourist. He thought of the idea to to carve
famous historic heroes of the west into the side of the mountain (history.com). In
1924, Robinson decided to contact the famous American sculptor, Gutzon Borgium,
about his idea. Borgium at the time was working on another project for Georgia, but
Robinson was able to convince him to abandon his project and come
Before picture of Mount Rushmore to the Black Hills. When Borgium arrived in
South Dakota he suggested that they use George Washington and Abraham Lincoln
because of their significance to America. Later, he also decided to add Thomas
Jefferson and Theodore Roosevelt. Robinson and Borgium both decided that the
sculpture would be dedicated to these four men to recognize their contributions to the
birth of democracy and growth of the United States.
Comparing Revelation On The Relationship Of Church And
State
Paper 1: Comparing Revelation to Eusebius on the Relationship of Church and State
After reading chapters twelve through thirteen and seventeen through nineteen from
the book of Revelation, I have attained knowledge that allows me to see how the
author of Revelation perceives the Roman Empire. From the beginning of chapter
twelve it is clearly portrayed that the woman who is in the sky, about to give birth,
is meant to symbolize Mary the mother of Jesus, or even Israel, the birthplace of
Jesus. The Dragon of course, represents Satan. When the Dragon is thrown down to
Earth due to its repulsive actions of trying to harm the woman s baby, it decides to
make war against the faithful Christians. As the story progresses in chapter thirteen, a
... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Overall, the Roman Empire is perceived as an evil given its unruly authority and
power from Satan himself. Rome s relationship with Satan (the Dragon) is viewed as
a partnership. Satan and the Roman Empire both wanted to persecute Christians, and
Satan provided Rome with the opportunity to do so by giving them such power and
authority over everything. Men worshipped the dragon because he had given
authority to the beast, and they all worshiped the beast (Revelation 13:4 New
International Version). Although Rome pretty much had this partnership with Satan,
God/Jesus was and is still in control and that s what chapter nineteen in the book of
Revelation reassures for its readers. After this I heard what sounded like the roar of
a great multitude in heaven shouting (Revelation 19:1 New International Version).
This is a victory song and also assurance to the persecuted Christians of Asia Minor
that God is still in control and always will be and that everything will fall into place
when the time is right and when he plans for it to. God defeated the whore of
Babylon and therefore defeated the Roman Empire once and for all.
I believe that there were major social and historical factors that played a crucial role
in influencing the writing of the book of Revelation due to the fact that there was so
much past heat between Christians and the Roman Empire. There were several

Atonement By Bret Lott s Struggle With His Children
Atonement Essay Atonement by Bret Lott is an essay based on a father struggling
with his children. Bret clashes with his children all morning long about dishes and
combing of the hair. The last straw was when Zeb didn t put his shoes on for karate
practice. Once Zeb got into the car Bret was anything but solicitous. Due to a
morning full of chaos, Bret was easy to snap at Zeb for a tiny disagreement. After
sitting in silence, Bret realized what he did was boorish. Before Zeb went in for
karate practice, Bret apologized for yelling. Jacob chimed in from the backseat
asking for Wendy s. That day Bret learned what atonement meant. Bret Lott was able
to reach out and relate to everyone including: children, parents, and society. Every
child has been yelled at by their parent or their guardian. Frequently, a child is guilty
of misbehaving. Often, parents are screaming for no apparent reason. Each child has
felt the fear rise from their toes to their brain worrying about what they could ve
done. Once they figured out it s nothing they have done, children get confused. They

Parents come home from a long day at work tired and agitated. When agitation gets
the best of them, anything a child may do could possibly send them over the edge.
A child may be loquacious and that makes their parent/guardian upset. Instead of
being pragmatic towards the child, the parent takes all of the stress from work out
on the child. Even though the parent may not mean anything of the words being
said, they still affect the child. After the parent is able to calm down and realize
yelling isn t the answer, they talk to their child. Parents apologize for what they did
and say they overreacted. Sometimes a parent feels compunction for yelling at their
child and will bribe them with a toy or food to make them feel better. To conclude,
each and every parent is able to relate to yelling at their children when they don t

Social Media s Impact On Business
Long before social media, a business reputation and advertisement that was based
on word of mouth and newspapers. Although, now that the times have changed,
and we live in a world based off social media. Social media opens the door to a lot
of professional, ethical behavior and business ratings and ponders negative impact
towards a business. Nearly 73% of the populations in the United States have had a
social media profile with the leading uses of Twitter, Facebook or other various
forms of social media. That percentage equals out to be an approximate of 327
million mobile users in the United States that has access to internet via cell phones
and tablets. We now live in a world that lives based on technology at the touch of a
finger or a voice command. Now this is very beneficial as well as non beneficial in
the same way towards many businesses. The use of technology has been beyond
beneficial for businesses across the world. Consumers are able to access almost
every business around the world by either a social media site, website, or apps.
Social media allows businesses to connect personally with their customers. The touch
of a button, you can see what kind of products a business has, prices, their menu
items, order items, and ratings of their business.
Now, that is where the issues of social media come into play. Negative things are
said, regardless of the facts of it being true or not, this tends to spark tension,
professional ethics, and questionable
Legalization of Marijuana for Medical Use Only Essay
The history of U.S. policy toward mind altering substances has followed cycles of
tolerance and intolerance ever since the mid 19th century. The medical use of the
cannabis plant goes back at least 5,000 years to ancient China. It has been used by
most of the world s cultures for its healing properties (MedicalMarijuanaCases 1).
Today such conditions as Migraine headaches, Glaucoma, Cancer, Epilepsy, Asthma
AIDS/HIV, Spinal injury, Muscle spasms, Insomnia etc., could be treated for
symptomatic relief with cannabis or cannabis extract. However, marijuana is still
considered an illegal drug in most states in the United States.
Marijuana usage may have been common 20 30 years ago, but it really isn t any
longer. Judy Foreman states that ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Nevertheless, whether there s a medical need still is debatable. On the other hand,
officials at the U.S. Drugs Enforcement Administration insist there are few, if any
therapeutic uses of marijuana. In fact, they point out smoking harms the lungs
(Donnelly 3).4 The American Medical Association does not condone the use of
marijuana, although it does support further stating that under the direction of a
doctor may be appropriate for certain conditions (Donnelly 3).4 The media address
the subject in a language that precludes rational debate: Crime related to drugs
prohibition is systematically described as drug related . Furthermore, most people
seem to be deeply religiously committed to a medicalized view of life. Many take
seriously the proposition that just into his head, it is also not its business what
substance he puts into this body. In a free society the government s duty is to
protect individuals from others who might harm them. In 1980, there were almost
twice as may violent offenders in federal prisons as drug offenders (Schlosser 91).5
Today there are far more people in federal prison for marijuana crimes than for
violent crimes. More people are incarcerated in the nation s prisons for marijuana than

In order to duplicate Angela Whitiker s success and increase mobility for the

to send first generations policies to school. Then the program could follow the

Would reducing the amount of tax money that is spent on the military enough to
have significantly effect on funding programs that will help adults and children

question would be no. The reason being that U.S invest way too much in their
military. NBC news reports that America spends $682 billion dollar on their arm
forces. Which is so much that Russia, China, and The U.K combined don t compare
to what the U.S. spends on their military. So don t you think with all this excess of

The Jackhammer Syndrome Poem Analysis
Society s conventions teach that immoderate desires are unappealing manifestations
of basal instincts that individuals must learn to control. However, a certain sense of
liberating freedom is also attached to the idea of living in uninhibited by the
guidelines that society imposes. The Jackhammer Syndrome , a poem by Al Purdy,
and Susan Orlean s The Orchid Thief present two different narratives concerning the
pursuit of personal desire and deal with the consequences that ensue from this
behavior. Their characters experiences suggest that the unchecked pursuit of personal
desires, at the expense of conformity within society, does not produce lasting
gratification. The Jackhammer Syndrome is narrated by an individual who recounts
various memorable events in his life. He mentions such instances as hide and seek
and run sheep run/in my old hometown/where the kid was pretty funny and
swimming across a river meeting a girl halfway/along the wet footpath and going/on
together to the other/side for an hour doing/nothing dizzily balanced in the moment.
These memories, which seem ordinary and pleasant, are described by the narrator in a
way that causes the reader to question his true feelings towards them. Throughout the
entire poem, the author does not use a single mark of punctuation, dividing thoughts
according to verse instead. However, the more the narrator reminisces, the less
coherent the verses become, combining multiple ideas that lack an obvious
connection. These
Essay about Cults and Their Leaders
Cults and Their Leaders
For many years, cult leaders always had a psychological hold on their followers
minds. Whether it was to kill other people or to kill themselves, they did it without
question. Some cult leaders used fear, violence and guilt as a means of a weapon to
control the minds of their followers. Other cult leaders used persuasive and spiritual
speeches that made their followers believe they were doing good and fulfilling God s
plan. Because cult leaders are powerful through psychological offenses, the people
that belong to their cults are brainwashed into doing things they wouldn t normally do
in their right state of mind.
For years, there have been problems surrounding the definition of the term cult . ...
Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The Merriam Webster online dictionary defines cult as: a religion regarded as
unorthodox or spurious; also: its body of adherents. Indeed, any religion involving
unconditional worship and unquestioning obedience to God could be labeled as a
cult (using the derogatory suggestion of the word), since such a religion would
have that high level of dependency, obedience, and unwavering compliance ascribed
to cults by definition. Many mainstream religions still require their members to
believe in God unquestioningly, to have faith that he is good and that what he does
is good, to consider one s own wants and needs as unimportant while accepting the
will of God as paramount. All of these are certainly characteristics commonly
attributed to cults, but while it would not be unreasonable to apply this definition of
a cult to any dogmatic religion that requires strict compliance with God s word and
will as a condition of membership, the notion of applying the word cult to
Christianity, Islam, Judaism, or any other major world religion today is considered
absurd. There are those who make this very claim: that those who worship God fit the
classic depiction of cult members in their dogmatism, unswerving
The Confederate Flag And The Flag
Recently, quite a debate has emanated regarding the Confederate Flag. This debate
has been taken from a simple ember to an all out wildfire, spreading across
America, by events in recent months like the Charleston African American church
shooting and the subsequent removal of the flag from the South Caroline State
Capitol. This debate has deep geographic ties from all the way back to the Civil
War and what the flag stood for then and what the flag has stood for since. Each
side of the debate has determined their position based on their collective memory of
the flag. Whereas, one side of the argument sees the flying of the flag as a symbol of
racismand hatred, the other sees the flying of the flag as preserving southern heritage
with... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The true history behind this flag varies quite a bit from the collective memory of the
flag that is used to support arguments in the debate. One of the most important
characteristics of the flag that has bee lost in its long history is the fact that the flag
that many say represents the Confederacy and its ties in southern history is not really
a symbol of the Confederate States of America at all. The Confederate States of
American went through three different flags during the time of their existence. None
of which were the flag that we know so well today, this flag instead was flown by
General Robert E. Lee as a battle flag of his Northern Virginian army unit. This was
the only means in which this flag had any ties with the Confederacy, other than
being seen in the upper left hand corner of their second and third flag. Also, General
Lee himself left the flag behind him after his side lost the war saying I think it wiser
moreover not to keep open the sores of war, in a letter declining an invitation to the
Gettysburg Battlefield Memorial Association. This begins to invoke the question of
whether or not the heritage argument is justified or not as the General of the
Confederate Army cut his ties with the flag after losing the war.
Another argument made by many flag supporters is that the Confederate battle flag is
a historic banner that embodies the noble service and

George T-Shirts Essay
Question 1: What are the possible financial outcomes if George orders 5,000 shirts,
7,500 shirts and 10,000 shirts, respectively?
Based on the information given in the case, the expected number of attendees is:
E(x) = 80,000*0.25 + 50,000*0.5 + 20,000*0.25 = 50,000 people
Selling price per shirt: $100/12 = $8.33
Discount price: $1.5
Scenario 1:
Assumption: George orders 5000 T shirts; cost: $17,750; the number of attendees
buy his T shirts are 5%, 10% and 15% respectively
The possible financial outcomes under scenario 1 are as follows:

How much is perfect information worth to him?
George would use the information to maximize his profit. In question 1, George
did not have perfect information about the future, therefore his best bet was to take
the conservative route based on assumptions, and estimations. For instance, the
profit he made based on the assumption in scenario 1 (50,000 people would come,
10% will buy his T shirt) is $23,900. If he had perfect information, say he knew that
the number of attendees would be 80,000 and 10% of them would buy a shirt from
him, he would place an order of exactly 8000 T shirts.
Assumption: He pays $5 for one extra T shirt in excess of 7,500 pcs. * Cost =
$25,250 + 500*$5 = $27,750 * Revenue = 8,000*8.33 = $66,640 * Profit = $66,640
$27,750 = $38,890
Perfect information is worth: $38,890 $23,917 = $14,973
Question 4: Assume George makes T shirts for 30 events per year:
Should George quit his day job and become a T shirt entrepreneur full time?
I will need the following information to address this question. 1) How much is his
income at his current job? 2) Is the income from making T shirts more or less
substantial than his current job? 3) Based on the question he potentially has an
event every 12 days. How big are these events? Are they all as lucrative as the
current event? 4) What is the competitive landscape? Is he the only special events T
shirt maker? If not, how competitive is it? 5) Are there any potential changes

  • 1. Essay On New York Writing an essay on the topic of New York can be both a daunting and exciting task. The difficulty arises from the vastness and complexity of the subject matter. New York is a city with a rich history, a multitude of cultures, and a myriad of facets that contribute to its unique identity. The challenge lies in capturing the essence of this dynamic city within the confines of an essay. It requires a delicate balance between providing historical context, exploring the diverse neighborhoods, delving into the cultural tapestry, and reflecting on the ever-evolving nature of the city. Additionally, conveying the energy, pace, and vibrancy of New York in written form is no small feat. The research required is extensive, ranging from historical archives to contemporary sources, and demands a keen understanding of the city's social, economic, and cultural dynamics. Crafting a coherent and engaging narrative that does justice to the multifaceted nature of New York while maintaining a focused and structured essay is a significant challenge. Moreover, the risk of clichГ©s and superficial observations looms large, as New York has been a popular subject for countless essays. It necessitates a fresh perspective and a thoughtful analysis to avoid falling into the trap of regurgitating well-worn stereotypes or generic descriptions. In conclusion, writing an essay on New York demands a deep dive into its history, culture, and the ever-changing urban landscape. It requires skillful navigation through a sea of information and the ability to present a compelling narrative that captures the essence of this iconic city.

  • 2. An Essay On The Natural By Bernard Malamud The choices that we make today will impact our tomorrow. Whether we realize it or not, every single time we do something, we are making a choice. Many of these choices are subliminal, such as the direction we walk or the way we carry ourselves, but some choices impact the way people look at us. More importantly, some choices impact how successful we are in various things. I chose to write about choices because choices are single handedly the most important thing in the world. Everything we do on a daily basis is a choice, and choices are important to me as a person because they are something I am trying to get better at. The choices made in preparation for assorted events are undoubtedly the most important choices that can be made in our... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... As people always say, Hindsight is 20/20 , but if we would look forward in time and plan instead of making gut decisions, making better decisions and choices would definitely be easier to do. Robert Frost said it best in his poem, The Road Not Taken , when he said, Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim (Frost). This shows that when Frost got to a fork in the road, he sat down and evaluated both options before making a selection. He looked at the path on the left and then the path on the right so he would know exactly which choice to make and how that choice would work for him. This applies to everybody. When there is a big choice to be made, we need to evaluate every option and then look into the future to see how the options will benefit us later. If at the time a choice seems perfect, but there is no future benefit, why make that choice? If everybody has a common goal to be the best person that they can be and to be as successful as they can in life, the choice that is made needs to be a thirty day or thirty year decision, not a thirty second decision. Choice is defined as the act of selecting or making a decision when faced with two or more possibilities . Choices are not optional. We do not even know we are making a choice most of the time. Every second we make a choice. We make a choice of what to look at, listen to, or even

However, in the novel Never Let Me go by Kazuo Ishiguro, things are uniquely different for the children at Hailsham. The children who attend Hailsham are clones, who have had their entire future planned out for them by society, to donate their vital organs for humans who needthem. Even though this may seem like a terrible situation to be born into, the clones do not try to change their fate, and acceptit with little resistance. One of the reasons that they accept this as their fate, is that they are simply raised with the idea, therefore it is all that they know, it is normal for them. Also, they do not have the proper upbringing... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... They spend most of their life with the idea that this is normal, and this is what they are made to do. Due to the fact that they have been raised with this mindset they have no outside perspective on how people outside of Hailsham live their lives. Without any idea of how other people live their lives, they may have no problem knowing that this is their fate, because they don t have any idea of what they could be doing with their lives if they didn t have these restrictions. I can see ..that it might look as though you are simply pawns in a game. It can certainly be looked at like that. But think of it. You were lucky pawns. There was a certain climate and now it s gone. You have to accept that sometimes that s how things happen in this world. (Ishiguro, 266) The guardians at Hailsham treated the children as regular people to give them the most normal life possible, by reassuring the children that their situation could be seen in a positive light the children would become accustomed to the idea that there was nothing they could do to change their fate and ultimately decide to view their situation as a good thing. Nobody bothered to try to change things, because they didn t believe there was anything wrong that needed to be

Essay on Frank Lucas; American Gangster Frank Lucas; American Gangster What is the one thing every person, white or black, rich or poor, American or Hispanic, wants to have plenty of in their possession? If it s green, flimsy paper with different values on the front then money is the answer. Whether it s 19th Century, 20th Century, or 21st Century, people work, steal, worship money. Human beings aren t always satisfied with the amount of money they have, so they work harder, steal, rob, or cheat hoping to satisfy their money obsession.

Many executives use his model to analyze the different industries and see where there may be a potential star performers and utilize their current company s capabilities and resources to enter that new industry in a successful manner (Daft, 2007). His model can also help companies move into other market segments and help prevent others from joining in afterwards.

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Price wars are the result of strong rivalry between companies which only benefit the consumer, but have dramatic affects on returns. However, low rivalry creates an opportunity because there are fewer suppliers which allow the few select companies to charge higher prices which give a better return (Hill Jones, 2008). The extent of rivalry depends on four factors. The first is the competitive structure which means that rivalry is determined by the number and size distribution of companies in its industry. Each composed of different numbers and sizes. It is comparable to that of a pyramid; there are more fragmented small and medium businesses on the very bottom. Above that are a small number of large companies and at the very top there is a monopoly (Hill Jones, 2008). The second is demand conditions. If the market demand is growing more people are buying or the same buyers are purchasing more. Since more money is flowing in rivalry will decrease, but if demand goes down rivalry goes up. The third is cost conditions in markets that have fixed pricing where no matter how efficient a company is there is a fixed cost which they must intern pass on to customers and they only way to increase profits is to increase the volume of sales. If sales are low firms can not cover the fixed cost to make the product which means the they either have to lower prices, increase marketing, or a combination of the two (Hill Jones,

The reason for that is that the ancient Egyptians believed that a human being is made of 6 essential parts: the physical body, the shadow, the name, Ka (the soul), Ba (the personality), and the Akh (immortality, everlasting life.) All except for Akh are part of a person at birth. Firstly, a person can t exist without a shadow and a shadow wouldn t without the person. Secondly, the name, which was given to a person at birth and as long as that name was being called, the person was still alive. Ka lived in the real world and the tomb was it s. Ba can be described as the personality. Ba comes into someone s body at birth and leaves when they die. It was capable of taking different form and shapes and moved freely between the underworld and the real world. Akh, however, was the part of a human that would stay with the gods in the underworld forever. (6) Ancient Egyptians believed in afterlife and that afterlife was a holy blissful place: heaven. This place was called the land of the Two Fields. Dying wasn t enough to get one to this heavenly land. A person had to earn a place in Ra s boat. In order for that to happen, one s heart had to be light. Firstly, people had to pass the test of heart in the Hall of Maat.
  • 9. Diction In Silent Spring Poisons such as parathion are known as universal killers, which kills thousands of wildlife each year. In the book, Silent Spring, written by a noted biologist Rachel Carson, she argues that deadly poisons, that are meant to kill annoying creatures, are a hazard to the humans, domestic animals, as well as wildlife. She also argues that farmers are ignorant to the radiating damage of the poisons like parathion, which can cause long term effects on both humans and the environment. She argues that through the use of dark and war like diction, characterization, as well as rhetorical questions. Carson uses dark and war like diction throughout the passage to express the intensity and seriousness of the problem with the application of parathion to the environment. She used words such as killing , death , and deadly in the book to express how harmful and hazardous these poisons are to various of creatures in the environment, including us. She tries to persuade her audience through the multiple usages of these words since they express darkness and death which makes people afraid and understand the harmful effects of the poison. We can also see that she used war like diction like direct target and mission of death in order to convey the message that we are fighting against creatures that annoy us as if we are in a war with them. By using these words in the passage, she tries to make us aware of the fact that we are waging war against creatures that are not a real life

We don t see whats happening to those character who aren t as important in the series but rather we get to know the life of those who are the central of attention throughout the scenes.

Things Done Well During The Presentation Things done well During the presentation there were examples provided from the textbook to allow the trainees to capture what was being presented and said. This allowed for them to see what was being taught. It was also helpful that there were examples provided during the presentation to allow for a real life experiences in the workforce, making everything more relatable to each individual in its own unique way. There were also instances where trainees were asked questions and to engage them throughout the process of training. This would allow them to constantly think, especially when there were pop quizzes throughout. Trainees were also able to ask questions during the entire presentation, allowing for people to have their answers answered at any point. In order for this to succeed we had to prepare beforehand so that the questions would be answered as effectively and as clearly as they could. Having handouts that had the slides with room to write notes on the side allowed the audience to make notes and to write ideas. We also provide quizzes that were interactive throughout the presentation on the slides. This allowed us to ask the question, and afterwards there were animations that showed the audience which answer was the right one. It was a little bit of a learning curve, but it was done clearly and effectively after some research had been performed. By implanting new ideas into presentations, it not only allows the presenters to learn something new, but it also

This launches Charley into a tantrum of emotion that which he tries to make up for. The emotion and motives behind Charley s attempts are revealed through diction, syntax, and choice of detail, as he tries to convince his sister. One device that Dickens utilizes with Charley is diction. His choice of words directly conveys his immediate emotional response, then the persuasion. One example of this is Charley s physical reaction, You were obliged to tell him, repeated the boy angrily, between his teeth, and rudely pushing her. These descriptive words paint a picture of an enraged and seemingly upset man. Additionally, Dickens also incorporates words that convey Charley s to patronizing and controlling personality.

It is highly fragmented with at least 20 major manufacturers in each technology segment. Because of the wide range of applications of batteries, companies have tended to specialize in a particular technology or market application. Disposable batteries, such as the widely available carbon zinc and alkaline cells, are available in standard sizes such as AA, C, and D, and they are a fast moving consumer good category with emphasis on manufacturing efficiency and scale, marketing and branding, and distribution efficiency.

Interestingly, battery makers have tended to focus in relatively narrow product segments and technologies. Disposable battery makers have typically not become major players in rechargeables, and rechargeable battery manufacturers tended to stick with a particular technology or product focus (laptop computers, mobile phones, portable power tools, etc.) Back Bay Battery, Inc., in 2012 Back Bay Battery is one of over 20 major manufacturers of NiMH batteries. The field is crowded, but manufacturers have been riding rising a tide of demand from consumers for portable electrically powered devices. Though the technology is relatively mature, the company is anticipating continuing strong volume growth rates, primarily due to rapid consumer adoption. The worldwide market is projected to grow at 9.0%. Pricing pressure is significant, though, as more East Asian competitors continue to drive commoditization of NiMH cells. Back Bay s sales manager has learned to track the market pricing closely, as being out of step with the market can cause dramatic market share changes in a relatively short time. Li ion batteries have pretty much replaced NiMH in the market for laptop computer batteries. The first commercial Li ion battery was produced by Sony in 1991. Li ion batteries are favored for mobile devices because they can store a high density of energy for a given weight. They can be fabricated in many shapes,

On a good day, walking into a business to solicit a different product, service, or partnership opportunity means that a decision maker has been spoken with and an additional appointment may be established so that decision maker can have more available time to hear what is being pitched. More than likely, however, a card or name will be collected with contact information and that particular individual must create a method of re contacting those potential business opportunities at a later time. Through the use of VOIP, or voice over Internet provider as a less expensive way for a business to have phone services, a call is made to create a relationship that could potentially provide additional opportunities. The salesperson acts as the sender with the purpose of selling his company s products or services. The receiver should be the decision making contact that had been collected while cold calling. The environment is more than likely a cubicle to personal office setting and depending on how the day of that decision maker is going will determine if the noise becomes too distracting.

Awhile back I came across a video series that Mennonite Central Committee has on YouTube of him speaking at the youth convention in Kansas City. I was curious to see how soldiers dealt with their faith and these videos helpful for me to start to understand through one person s journey of reconciling with what it meant to be a Christian in the military. Ben s story was a great resource that helped me understand Ken s experience, so I ve referenced him a few times. The desensitizing of soldiers was something that Ken kept going back to. The US military tries to dehumanize the enemy so that it s possible for soldiers to kill on command. Without this process many people would have a hard time pulling the trigger. Ken referred to the shirt the military made him wear and how they would make him yell blood to the enemy. Ben Peters talks about how the military has to teach you to hate, dehumanize, and view people you are fighting as others. He goes on to describe the process: We never refer to the Iraqis as Iraqis because it creates to much cognitive dissonance...and complexity in the brain to extend humanity to the enemy; so I have to see you as an ugly, dirty, stinky middle eastern animal and only then can I kill you.

For example, in Disloyal Order of Water Buffaloes , the lines So boycott love/ Detox just to retox could have many different meanings. The first line may when looked at may have two different meanings. Many people boycott things because they think it may be bad for them and other people and love isn t the kindest of things. Though, there may be a second meaning. Think about how someone feels after their heart is broken; quite often they don t want to fall in love again. So maybe they are boycotting love just to keep themselves safe? And if you look at the second line, Detox just to retox could also have different meanings. It could be about some addicts: they may just abstain from something just to retox, or go back to it again. But, also it could be about how people aren t perfect and they try to detox only to go back to it. And, when you look at both lines it could be someone trying to boycott love or leave a person and boycott their love. And people detox to rid themselves of something toxic, and love can be toxic in the case of toxic relationships. And quite often, many go back to their abusers which could be what Detox just to retox could allude to. This is just the writer s take, it could mean something else to someone else. Another

Syntactic And Morphological Skills In Autism Introduction The focus of the study was on how children with autism develop syntactic and morphological skills and if they apply alternative ways of learning such as memorization techniques in order to make up for the lack of normal morphological processing and if they learn grammatical morphemes in an unusual form. Previous studies have proposed the idea that children with autism present unusual syntactic and morphological skills; however, there is not sufficient information available on this topic. Existing studies have yet to indicate how these skills differentiate to children with developmental delay without autism. Moreover, the question of this research is important for deciding whether language impairments are merely linked to autism or developmental delay. Three different hypotheses were presented by the researchers of this study. The first hypothesis explained that children with autism would obtain lower scores on the tests measuring morphological and syntactic skills than children without autism and developmental delay.

The results reveal that the groups with autism and developmental delay without autism both have difficulty applying past tense inflections which may create the task of applying past tense inflections to non words more

The Impact Of Financial Doping 2.4.3 Financial Doping With high levels of financial losses encroaching the world of football, the need to spend in order to compete developed a phenomenon known as financial doping. This is a situation in which an owner of a sports franchise invests their own personal wealth into securing success, rather than relying on revenue generated via the franchise related activities. This reflects on what Sloane (1971) says that football club owners are utility maximisers rather than profit maximisation. Being motivated by success as their clubs participate in prestige competitions, some may argue that their investments are not sustainable and the impact of sugar daddies has been titled as financial doping (Muller et al., 2012). A significant proportion of debtaccumulated in the league is in the form of soft loans , which is low or zero interest loans from the clubs owners. These soft loans will rarely be called in, which differentiates them from loans taken out from a bank. The severity of financial doping in English football has been referred to as a melting pot with teams such as Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea all receiving financial support from their billionaire owners. With external sources of money being introduced into the game, it highlights how football is able to stay afloat and thrive despite making substantial financial losses. The APFG in 2009 noted that there were severe doubts about whether it is sustainable in the medium or long

  • 26. The Study Of Ancient Dna The study of geologically ancient DNA began in 1984 with Russell Higuchi and a handful of other scientists. Hoping to determine whether ancient DNA survived and could be retrieved from samples of preserved soft tissue, they examined samples of dried muscle taken from a museum specimen of the quagga. Their attempts to extract genetic material were successful, and the samples yielded slightly less than 1% of the DNAthat would have been yielded by fresh muscle; from this, they successfully sequenced two pieces of mitochondrial DNA (Higuchi and others, 1984). They then compared the resulting sequences to the mitochondrial DNA of a living mountain zebra and determined that the two species had a common ancestor between three and four million years ago, a finding consistent with fossil evidence of the Equus genus (Higuchi and others, 1984). This marked the first time that ancient DNA was successfully extracted and sequence, thus sparking an entirely new discipline within paleontology: the study of ancient DNA. The importance of this event is not to be underestimated. Prior to the sequencing of extinct quagga DNA, the bulk of our understanding of past life forms comes from the fossil record. Pruvost and others (2006) argue that analysis of DNA samples retrieved from the fossil record stand to vastly increase our knowledge about the past. It has incredible potential to answer many questions posed by studies in archeological anthropological disciplines. Furthermore, Yang (2005),

The young boy developed a menial frame of mind. This apprenticeship lasted for about four years with the first half consisting of stealing and a lackey spirit, and the following half Rousseau s love for reading was revived. The more miserable he became with his master, the more he read. He would play with the other boys on free days, usually Sundays, and venture out of the city gates. He often came home just before the drawbridge closed at sundown and twice had to sleep outside the city. On day on March 14, 1728, Rousseau was late and saw the drawbridge closing. He yelled to his uncle he would not be returning to his master. Bernard did not try to stop the boy, who was just over sixteen when he decided to make his journey. After wandering for several days he fell upon the Roman Catholic priests at Consignon in Savoy. He was then turned over to Madame de Warens at Annecy, who sent him to a school in Turin.

As a whole, the members of our society have never questioned if the way we live life is unjust. In 1830, a group of people recognized these wrongful ways. They spoke up and voiced their opinions on the way Americans were treating black individuals. But was slavery genuinely wrong? According to many members of society in the 1830 s, no, slavery wasn t wrong. It was a way of life. After Lincoln abolished slavery in 1865 slavery has only been thought about as a moment in history. Now in 2017, we live in a free country, where no one is a slave. Or so we thought. Human trafficking is a growing issue in the world today. There are approximately 20 to 30 million slaves worldwide, of which 80% are women and children. The Polaris Project is one of the many organizations that is helping eliminate human trafficking today.

Naily Castaneda 5000755 Lab partners: Belen Caballero Jesse Raya Jonah Wichterich The Effect of Temperature on the Starch Hydrolyzing Ability of Aspergillus Oryzae Amylase and Bacillus Licheniformis Amylase Lab section: U28 Abstract The optimal temperature range of bacterial amylase, Aspergillus oryzae, were found and compared to the optimal temperature range of fungal amylase, Bacillus licheniformis, by testing the ability of the enzymes to hydrolyze starch after being exposed to different temperatures. The starch hydrolyzing ability of both the fungal amylase and the bacterial amylase was determined by mixing both amylases with starch and placing several tubes of the respective mixtures in four different temperatures each. Over the span of minutes, samples would be taken from each of the tubes and would be mixed with iodine. Due to the tendency of starch to color into a dark blackish blue when combined with iodine, the degree of starch hydrolysis was then determined using a color coding scheme. The optimal temperature for both Aspergillus oryzae amylase and Bacillus licheniformis amylase was found to be within the 25 degree to 55 degree Celsius range. More specifically, the bacterial amylase seemed to hydrolyze starch more effectively as it spent more time exposed to the 55 degree Celsius temperature, whereas the fungal amylase seemed to work the best mostly when it had been exposed to the 55 degree Celsius temperature for 8 minutes.

The play is set in a dark room centered around five characters, depicting how they react and communicate with each other through their individual dark fantasies.

It portrays an absurd and darkly comedic perspective of playwright and actress Carol Brown, disrupting the conventional assumptions about classic theatre while injecting the familiar with spontaneity and vitality, bridge the divide between the plays of then and the audiences of now . As such, it dismantles and exploits an audience s expectations of mundane theatre. By restructuring and reimagining scripts, utilizing mixed media, and blurring genre and theme, the play creates an experience that is visceral, stimulating, and immediate. Each character embodies a certain emotional and inner psychological struggle that is triggered by one another, pertaining to themes of perverted self love, suicide, self destruction, deprivation, angst, desire for freedom, desire to be loved, women in society, wealth and success, sexuality, manipulation and borderline mental illness. Hedda, the daughter of General Gabler and married to George Tesman, seems to be miserable, craving entertainment through unremorseful manipulation of Eilert LГ¶vborg, Thea Elvsted and Judge Brack.

Rome s relationship with Satan (the Dragon) is viewed as a partnership. Satan and the Roman Empire both wanted to persecute Christians, and Satan provided Rome with the opportunity to do so by giving them such power and authority over everything. Men worshipped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they all worshiped the beast (Revelation 13:4 New International Version). Although Rome pretty much had this partnership with Satan, God/Jesus was and is still in control and that s what chapter nineteen in the book of Revelation reassures for its readers. After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude in heaven shouting (Revelation 19:1 New International Version). This is a victory song and also assurance to the persecuted Christians of Asia Minor that God is still in control and always will be and that everything will fall into place when the time is right and when he plans for it to. God defeated the whore of Babylon and therefore defeated the Roman Empire once and for all. I believe that there were major social and historical factors that played a crucial role in influencing the writing of the book of Revelation due to the fact that there was so much past heat between Christians and the Roman Empire.

Indeed, any religion involving unconditional worship and unquestioning obedience to God could be labeled as a cult (using the derogatory suggestion of the word), since such a religion would have that high level of dependency, obedience, and unwavering compliance ascribed to cults by definition. Many mainstream religions still require their members to believe in God unquestioningly, to have faith that he is good and that what he does is good, to consider one s own wants and needs as unimportant while accepting the will of God as paramount. All of these are certainly characteristics commonly attributed to cults, but while it would not be unreasonable to apply this definition of a cult to any dogmatic religion that requires strict compliance with God s word and will as a condition of membership, the notion of applying the word cult to Christianity, Islam, Judaism, or any other major world religion today is considered absurd.
