The Importance Of Still Life
Everything you ve gone through in your life has made you into the person you are today. Don t
hate on the past or the people that have been left there. You are stronger because of all the
challenges and circumstances that you ve endured. Be thankful for everything because as you
become stronger...life becomes easier Quoted by Robert Tew. Robert Tew explained in this
quote that someone or something has made you the person you are today. Whether it be family,
friends, someone who has inspired you or personal experiences we all have reasons as to what
made us the way we are. I recently made a still life representing what made me the person I am
today. If you looked at it you might be confused about the items so I will be explaining the

Felicia, and Donnie which is Felicia s boyfriend of about 5 years. This picture was taken a

Human Activity And The Environment
The Earth is dominated by human activity and the impact so far has been overwhelming. As a
species we have changed the environment more than any other species. What drives us to do this
can be blamed for success to survive and adapt in most environments. Humanity learns to take
control and use the environment to benefit from the resources there. The demand for what we want
and what we need to survive is bought by currency and controlled by society and politics. Science
wants to create easier ways to change the environment. While religion and culture try to enhance
beliefs and values among the worlds people. The Earths resource base is what makes life possible
upon it. Humans are a part of the ecosystem and need to use the same resources as everything
else. The problem is that we take a majority and pollute a fair amount in the process of taking
them. The health of the environment can be overlooked when profit is an option. Companies or
even individuals can take short cuts in doing a job and pollute the land or water. Economies are
important in our lives and it is a main driver in environment change. If it comes to money, the
question is any being made and how much does it cost to do whatever? Sometimes a regulation can
cost a company more money and will try to change the law to benefit themselves. They greatly
influence all the groups that create change and can be positive or negative. Politicians can put into

Walter Mitty Dream
In The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Walter Mitty daydreams into fantastic fantasies as he faces
the harshness of reality. Walter is first seen as the Commander of a navy hydroplane through a
hurricane. However, the The Old Man ain t afraid of Hell (The) in the hurricane is afraid of his
wife as she nags him for speeding. Unnamed Mrs. Mitty continues to command her husband even
insisting that he wear gloves. Walter, upset, purposely takes off the gloves at a red light. As he
stopped at the red light for too long, a cop tells him to Pick it up, brother! (The). Mitty

Thurber had a troublesome marriage with Althea; Walter is constantly being controlled by Mrs.
Mitty. Because of Mrs. Mitty s nagging and imposing influence seen in paragraphs 3 and 4,
Walter is triggered into a daydream. As a world famous surgeon, he not only is in control of his
life, but the life of his patient. Mitty cleverly adapts to emergencies like using a fountain pen to
fix the needed surgical machinery (The). Every time he escapes, it is because of a trigger, often
through an authority figure imposing on him. In fact, it is the clear distinction between fantasy and
reality that makes escaping a theme. The heavy juxtaposition between diction of the dream world
and real life is evident. For example, in the second daydream as a surgeon, Dr. Mitty snapped at
fellow doctors and nurses to give him a fountain pen and uses fake yet complicated sounding
medical terms such as Obstreosis of the ductal tract (The). However, in the subsequent paragraph as
Walter clumsily almost hits another car in the parking lot in reality, he only muttered in response to
the valet, unable to give a definitive reply. The dramatic juxtaposition between Mitty s spectacular
fantasies and mundane reality drives the story. Thurber highlights Mitty s desperateness for action
through the drastic differences in scenes. Also, Thurber distinguishes daydreams by incorporating
much more imperative voice and literary devices compared to straight dialogue in the reality.
Thurber literally makes the fantasies more alive and interesting than boring reality. Onomatopoeia
is seen in 3 of the 5 daydreams, ta pocketa pocketa... in paragraph 1 for the hydroplane and the same
sound for the surgical machine (The). Rat tat tatting in paragraph 14 reflects the machine gun

Cultural Syncretism In Greek Art
Greco Buddhist art is the artistic form of Greco Buddhism, a cultural syncretism between the
Classical Greek culture and Buddhism. Greco Buddhist art is characterized by the apparent
idealistic realism and in depth portrayal of Hellenistic art. Representations of the Buddha alongside
traditional Greek deities have helped outline the artistic canon for Buddhist art throughout Asia up
to the present. Additionally, it is also a strong example of cultural syncretism between eastern and
western civilizations and how the combination of the two cultures can redefine ideas of divinity.

Although both Herakles and Vajrapani are independent in tradition, blending them together creates a
new understanding of the ties between Greco Buddhism and how symbolism can be carried
throughout different cultures. As a syncretic combination of Western borrowing in concept and
iconography, the protector function of Vajrapani rendered the character distinctively qualified to
the personification of Herakles. Interpretations seen throughout currency and sculpture made an
undeniable impact and served as the forefront of Greco Guddhism as a canon of art. Additionally,
the knowledge of Herakles as a military valor and as a symbol of strength was apparent across
cultures; making it nearly impossible to deny how the Heraklean interpretation of Vajrapani served
as a cohesive force in forming Greco Buddhism as an artistic movement. Nontheless, the analogous
function of the two deities had much impact on Vajrapani being distinctively remembered as
Heraklean in nature, a form derided by western classical art. Surely this can be considered a fault of

The Affordable Care Act Of Obamacare
There are so many parts to the Affordable Care Act bill also known as Obamacare, that it can
become confusing to most Americans. There are some areas of the bill that I agree with, such
as benefits for women, senior citizens and college student s coverage. There are some negatives
as well as positive to the Employer Mandate, which we will review. The Affordable Care Act also
known as Obamacare was signed into law by President Obama on March 23, 2010. On June 28,
2012 the Supreme Court upheld the Healthcare law. The new bill covers several benefits for
families such as guaranteed coverage of pre existing conditions and elimination of gender
discrimination (Obamacarefacts pros and cons). There seem to be plenty of gray areas in the
Affordable Care Act due to disagreement with state legislative, but some that are very positive in

The Evolution Of Species Extinction
Globally, most of the species (both flora and fauna) are under serious threat from direct and indirect
human activities; while the direct activities such as deforestation leads to species habitat
fragmentation and loss, on the other hand modifies climatic conditions coupled with gas emissions.
The synergistic impact of these human driven activities questions the survivability of organisms in
the morphed climatic environments. At one level fragmented habitats increase intra and inter
species competitions, resulting in decline of population of species, grouping them under rare and
threatened category. At other level, the amplified global temperatures in parallel with low
precipitation rates, not only creates unsuitable external habitat conditions but also impose internal
changes in biological clock and physiological processes of the organisms, in additions to their life
history traits (Reynold et al. 2003, Price and Gittleman, 2007). This kind of changed scenario both
externally and internally, brings incompatibility in the organism to cope with fluctuating climatic
conditions, finally making the species as vulnerable and forcing into the process of extinction.
The process of species extinction accelerated with rapid human activities and in the current
scenario, many species are in the queue of extinction. We are losing our uncounted valuable

My Leadership Style Of The Golden Rule Of Treating Others
As I reflect on my leadership style as it pertains to ethics I have always considered me to be a
very realistic but fair minded person. One of my strong values I live my life by is integrity. I
believe in the golden rule of treating others the way you would like to be treated. I have always
taken others feelings and actions into consideration when making a decision that not only affect
me but the group at large. I noticed that a lot of my morals and values are strongly grounded on
the foundation I got from my parents growing up on a tobacco/dairy farm in Metcalfe County.
My parents taught me early that all you have in life is your education, your name and your word.

History Of Human Intelligence And Artificial Intelligence
The history of human culture is a continuous development of the social world and the natural
world. Their identity is realized through the system of signs and symbols. The symbolic
signification of a wide range of cultural events and facilities helps in streamlining human living
space in all periods of its development and existence. Signs and symbols are one of the most
meaningful concepts in culture. They represent a universal category, which implies a juxtaposition
of the objective image and its deeper meaning. Every symbol has an aesthetic information, which, in
turn, has a huge number of degrees of freedom, exceeding the capabilities of human perception. One
of the most vivid symbols of human culture is body modificationsuch as tattooing and piercing,
which have a long lasting history, deep socio cultural roots, and certain health risks.
Historical Roots
Signs and symbols are a unique phenomenon in the world history. Professor David D. Nolte, in a
book on human intelligence and artificial intelligence, states, the feature that most distinguishes
human intelligence from that of other animals is our sophisticated manipulation of signs to
represent our world (43). These words echo with the English philosopher Lady Welby Gregory s
opinion, carefully defined by Italian semiologist Augusto Ponzio:
The logical capacity of signifying, of interpreting, of discriminating between the multiply meanings
of the sign is that which distinguishes man from the rest of the animal

While the dispPreOrder function, only executes once per call, recursively, the dispPreOrder
function is required to execute N times, where N represents the number of nodes necessary for
processing through the function. Therefore, the dispPreOrder function contains an order of N, or
O(N) in Big O notation. Moreover, the dispLevelOrder function contains a single while loop, in
order to construct a queue of nodes, by level, in order to develop a traversal by each level of the
tree like structure. With a single while loop, and calls to the enQueue, deQueue, and isEmpty
functions, the dispLevelOrder function executes, or conducts iterations a total of N times, where N
represents the number of iterations through the while loop. Therefore, the dispLevelOrder function

like medicine, media, social networking etc., there is a need for better processing model which
can access the data at the rate at which the data increases. This paper proposed a processing model,

Here in the paper the authors mentioned about the privacy issues and then some dependency issues
from social networking sites which shows a need for understanding both semantics and knowledge
from applications for processing of Big Data with the use of Big Data mining algorithms in the form
of three tiers. In the later part of the paper the author discussed about the challenges faced by Big
Data in the three tiers as difficulty in accessing the data in terms of storage and computing, gaining
knowledge by understanding semantics and how privacy can be achieved and how the overall
optimization can be obtained. These challenges made the authors to develop many data mining
methods which explains the convoluted relationships of evolving data.
Strengths and Limitations: The introduction part is very clearly explained showing how Big Data
can be used and what are the main challenges being faced today due to volume, autonomous,
complexity and heterogeneity of data, but drawing the conclusion from the examples mentioned is
incomprehensible. The processing framework is conveniently illustrated in three tiers but
pipelining of these tiers with a comprehensible example would make the paper more satisfactory.

History Of Financial Derivatives Markets And Floating Rate...
amount of cash they should hold in their reserve in order to be able to cover the potential loss.
Although the term Value at risk has not been used till the1990s, the origins of its measure lie
further back in time. The arithmetic behind the VaR were developed by Harry Markowitz (1952) in
his studies of effects of asset risk, return, correlation, and diversification on probable investment
portfolio returns which contributed to the modern portfolio theory. In fact, the trigger of the use of
VaR came from the crisis that tormented the financial market and the regulatory responses to these
crises. After the great depression of 1929, the Securities Exchange Act established in 1934 the
Security Exchange Commission (SEC), a federal government agency in charge of regulating stocks
and options exchanges. Since the SEC initially required banks to keep their borrowing below
2000% of their equity capital, Banks developed risk measures and control devices to ensure that

The specific group that is being studied is Grenadians, mainly Grenadian Americans. Unfortunately
due to its small size, there are not a lot of records of Grenadians immigrating to the US until
around 1950. During that time there was a huge influx of Grenadian women looking to start their
lives anew. Still then the number of Grenadians emigrating weren t as great in reference to the
other Caribbean countries. After the passing of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 (Hart
Celler Act), it increased the amount of people allowed to emigrate from Caribbean countries (Love
Andrews, 2003). Unlike some countries people leaving Grenada to live in America wasn t
necessarily for economic reasons. One of the main reasons is because of the communist views of
the government during the 70s and 80s. According to the U.S. Census Bureau American
Community Survey (ACS) 2006 2010, the total amount of Grenadian Americans in the US is
approximately 28,488. Most of the Grenadians in America are in New York at approximate 19,175.
Throughout America there are about 1,232 Grenadians in New Jersey, 1,203 in Maryland and 2,357
in Florida. Compared to the estimated 19 million New Yorkers, .1% of them are Grenadian. In

Pompeii Site Analysis
Tourism can be one of the most destructive forces facing archaeological sites and their
conservators. Tourists can cause damage by disregarding signs prohibiting touching or littering.
Parts of sites may need to be manipulated or even destroyed to allow for visitor access. Striking a
balance between allowing the public to interact with a site and preserving it is very difficult. Some
sites, like Bet She an in Israel, give tourists the freedom to touch monuments and even climb onto
them to give the visitors authentic experiences, despite the damage it causes. Others, like Pompeii
in Italy, keep tourists within certain bounds to protect the sites. This paper examines the advantages

They have had to battle issues like tourists lack of sensitivity to conservation issues, such as the
damage caused by visitors sitting or leaning on delicate masonry and marble, a threat to
conservation. Visitors have even been caught splashing water onto mosaics to freshen them up for
pictures. Additionally, the general movement of tourists causes the gradual wearing down of the
roads and pavements. Tourists also might take chips of stone from the site, as well as accidentally
brush against the walls and frescoes, further increasing their rate of deterioration (Wallace 2013). In
studies to understand the tourism of the site, it was discovered that many of these tourists
damaging actions were not done maliciously, but out of a desire to experience the site. However,
the open nature of Pompeii for tourists is also a leading cause in vandalism, graffiti and theft.
Some of the vandalism involves scratching one s name into a wall and also stems from a desire
to experience the site and tie it to one s self, but that does not make it any less unacceptable. Steps
have been taken to restrict tourists to conserve parts of the site. The governing body for Pompeii
has begun issuing new tickets that allow for tourists to visit cities such as Herculaneum and

Jan 1, you will lose your coverage for the brand name. In this instance, the drug plan must give

They don t want to share their experiences on death and try to shade their young ones from ever
discovering about it (Mullin 2008). In Islam, Muslims categorize death as the transitory period of
one state to another. The religion elaborates that living in the world is a test in which if they
succeed they reap the benefits after death. The religion signifies that death is something that
should be accepted as a part of living. This is seen apparent through old age, terminal illness, or
even mourning in stages of a Muslim s life (Aziz 1998, pp. 138 140).
Treatment of Death by Individuals Each individual on this world is unique and different in
every way. They can be different according to their values, morals, and experiences. Values and
morals shape a person on what is right or wrong and how they should react in certain situations.
For example, in case of death, some people have complete breakdowns when someone dies while
others just feel dead inside with no reaction whatsoever. Lisa Firestone states that being aware of
death can allow humans to treat life differently. Conscious awareness makes people make better
decisions and try to avoid death at an early stage. Every year in the United States of America,

Brahe portrayed the humanist ideal observation by revising previous theories and scientific tools
throughout his career. Three discoveries attributed to Tycho Brahe include how the earth s position
is viewed in the universe, mapping of celestial bodies, and his creation of accurate scientific
instruments. Before the Renaissance, many scientists believed in the geocentric theory, or the
belief that the earth was the center of the universe, and the sun, planets, and other stars revolved
around earth. Tycho proved that the path of the comet of 1577 was not circular, but elongated,
meaning that it would be impossible according to the geocentric theory. This discovery influenced
the ways scientists viewed the location of planets and stars. Tycho viewed and observed a new
star in the constellation Cassiopeia that lay beyond the moon and was in the realm of fixed stars.
This discovery of the new star influenced the way scientists mapped all celestial bodies. Brahe was
one of the first astronomers to realize the importance of error of instrumentation. He believed that
some of the errors in the astronomical works of famous Renaissance astronomers were due to poor
instrumentation. He was able to develop new instruments to plot his research that were massive

because Sparta had superior training, had a more effective military, and gave women more freedom.
First of all, Sparta was superior to Athens because Sparta had superior training. The Spartans
feared that helots might soon rebel so the government firmly trained all men and boys for war.
The boys, who left their families when they were seven, were treated and trained aggressively so
they could become strong. The boys lived in barracks with the others that were also training. They
didn t sleep on your normal bed either. They lodged together in little bands upon beds made of the
reeds... which they were to break off with their hands without a knife. (Spartan Discipline, Plutarch)

There is no debate that one of the most attractive, human friendly and intelligent beauties in nature

capable of learning human traits and freely interacting with them without causing any harm. Their
curious behavior and acrobatic moves make us enjoy their company through watching and spending
time in the waters with them. However, the gradual decline in the population of the orca is a
worrying trend that sparks another kind of debate. Our interactions with killer whales is endangering
their survival in the ecosystem, which should not be the case (BioExpedition 1). Our interaction

However it is critical to understand that when they are conserved in captivity, we prevent them
from getting their main biological needs from the ocean as a natural habitat. With their wide
food spectrums, orcas hunt for turtles, sea lions, crabs, seals and many other food varieties
depending on their ecotypes. This makes them travel over large regions in the ocean in search
of the same. Just as human beings are top of the food chain with regards terrestrial animals, so
are orcas in the oceans. It is therefore important to raise our voices against this practice to avoid
the risk of classifying them as endangered species. Even though the whales gave me so much in
my life and my career (BioExpedition 1), he grew to believe that the whales physical and
emotional well being was incompatible with captivity. Confined to unnatural social groups for the
convenience of their owners, bored and restless, forced to perform tricks for food that trainers
withheld as punishment, they occasionally slipped, he writes, into the dark side (Adler 2).

Judging by the Edgar Allan Poe quotes in your book you seem to be a fan of the author. What do
you think it is about his writing that made his work so iconic?
Poe was a haunted, melancholy man whose writing was raw and soul borne. While his
contemporaries were following the path to transcendentalism, he instead chose to write in the
gothic style. Perhaps it was to give the masses what they wanted: transcendentalism was an
intellectual, elevated form while gothic verses spoke to the everyday man and our preoccupation
with darkness and death.
Spooky tales, mournful epitaphs, tales of loss and longing and failure these were the types of
stories that spoke of humanity and mortality. They were dark but they were accessible. In a world
where sГ©ances were the entertainment of the day and where morbid death traditions were as
important as the rules of courtship, Poe was the ultimate storyteller.
His work survived the passage of time because, like Senza Fyne, his work was not constrained by
it. His work is truly timeless.

When schools are converted to charters or turned around they are following the educational reform
of Arne Duncan to give better education to underserved areas in Chicago. The myth of this is that
these schools are highly beneficial to the underprivileged areas when in fact they are doing a great
amount of harm. In Arne Duncan and the Chicago Success Story: Myth or Reality? the myth is
recognized by stating the impact on children and teachers; a statement from the article says,
Renaissance 2010 was (and is) marketed as an opportunity to bring in new partners with creative
approaches to education. That s the myth (Brown, Gutstein, Lipman, 2009). As stated, the myth
here is schools should be operated as markets and the charter school system does this by getting rid
of the difficult working ways and replacing them with creative partners. Brown, Gutstein and
Lipman further explain why the charter school is harming the community saying how students are
facing attendance and violence problems, ...there is no guarantee that a student who had their
school closed will attend a charter school and those who had their school closed down have faced
destabilization of spikes in violence... (Brown, Gutstein, Lipman, 2009). This demonstrates the fault
of charter schools because it shows how community warnings were ignored on what school closings

affiliated with the Salvadoran military that was subsidized by the U.S. government. But with those
accusations, Reagan put a lot of energy into overthrowing the government in Nicaragua that almost
ended Reagan s presidency. Thus resulting in the U.S. Senate cutting Reagan s ties to his surrogate
army in Central America. Which this ended with The White House running the war from the
basement of The White House and funded the operation by paying for some of it with prohibited

evading prosecution by his affiliates saying he had no knowledge of the affair.

Winter Fog Causes And Disadvantages
During the cold winter of Delhi, the 5 year olds smokes on an average 2 packs of cigarettes per
day. This smoking problem is not confined to 5 year olds, but every Delhiite who is exposed to
the hazardous winter fog endures a damage equivalent to 2 packs of cigarettes. Delayed flights
and trains, school closures, black outs, accidents on highways has become a norm during winter
in the past 20 years. Apart from the economical losses, a major health impact in the form of a
decrease in lung function and acute respiratory diseases is affecting the 18.6 million citizens of
Delhi. Recently, the Delhi government had declared a public health emergency owing to the
poor air quality, which features often in very poor and severe category, according to the Air
Quality Index (AQI) consistently during these winters. The presence of fine particles, indicated
by PM 10 and PM 2.5 in AQI, contributes to the poor quality of the air and is the major cause for
fogs. Sources of these fine particles vary from the emissions from industrial and automobile
emissions to the sand particles transported by global winds. 2 Origins of the winter fog The
beginning of winter in Northern India, marked by the largest festival known as Diwali, is the end
of the rice harvesting season. The residue stubble on the fields at the end of the rice harvesting
season doesn t hold any economic value, hence the farmers resort to burning of 70 80 million
tonnes of the stubble. Similarly as the temperatures approach freezing temperatures, the general
public rely more on bio mass burning for heating, warmth and cooking purposes. Further, the
industrial complexes draw more thermally generated electric power and hence leading to an
increase of coal emissions. These aerosols from outside the city gets transported and adds into the
fine particle sizes from the automobile emissions and road dust generated within the city. And the
fine particles serve as sites of condensation, forming misty droplets that doesn t settle. 2A 2020

From her roles in Charlie s Angels to this year s Kill Bill, Liu has become a veteran of the tough
chick image she is always prepared to fight. Collectively, these actors have always impressed their
audiences with their talents but audiences fail to realize that fictional portrayal is not always
reality. Ask any person of Asian descent and many will concur that at one point, someone has asked
them: Do you know kung fu?
The stereotypes do not end there. Other films tend to expose Asians as nerds and overachievers.
An example of this can be seen in Better Luck Tomorrow in which a group of young boys are all
striving to get the best grades possible, no matter how they are earned. Terminal USA includes the
classic computer nerd who is all brains and no life.
Another common stereotype is one strictly directed towards Asian women. The female character
is always one of two things. She is either the sexual dominatrix (the dragon lady ) or the innocent
and submissive young girl (the China doll ). More often than not, Asian women are portrayed as
exotic, mysterious, and overtly sexual. A perfect example of this can be seen in films like The

Adopting a Single Rate Flat Tax System
The U.S. Should Adopt a Single Rate Flat Tax System
The one topic that has continually been a major topic in the United States is the topic of taxes. It
has been a key component of political campaigns at all levels since the political scene has been of
interest to me. There are two major tax systems that are viable options in the U.S. today. There is
the federal individual income tax system and a single rate flat tax system. The U.S. currently uses
the federal individual income tax system. This type of tax system got its start in 1864 after the
American Civil War ( The New Income Tax, Dunbar). It was the second tax ever used by the U.S.
and was the first tax used during a time of peace. The tax system has continually become ... Show

The Current Tax System, Gjokutaj). Another economic benefit of a single rate flat tax system
would be the distribution of taxes. Although the burden would be switched from higher income
brackets to middle and lower income brackets, the distribution would be more equal with this
type of tax. Currently, taxpayers who are able to shift large portions of their incomes into
untaxed forms pay less in taxes than those with equal incomes who are unable or unwilling to
make as much use of tax preferences. The result is a wide dispersion in tax burdens among those
who are equally well off ( Why Not a True Flat Rate Tax, Browning). This concept along with the
other economic effects described, represent what some call a Fair Tax due to the more equal
spread of tax liability among all tax brackets. In a country that prides it self on freedoms and
fairness, doesn t it only seem right that our country s taxes are run through the same ideals.
Although the two major systems of taxes have been described, there is a third system that
opposes the first two and is actually viable. It is called a modified flat tax rate system proposal.
In this type of system, the tax base is more like that of the federal individual income tax system
where large amounts of income are exempt. Also, much like the current system, there are graduated

He is then informed of Hester s sin and that the baby s father has not been exposed. Then, a shout
comes from above Hester drawing her attention. It is from the balcony where the governor and
men of dignity are seated, watching Hester s punishment. The voice belonged to reverend John
Wilson, the eldest clergy man of Boston. He introduces Reverend Mr. Dimmesdale who then
speaks to Hester and the audience, asking Hester to tell them who the man involved is so that he
may stand with her on the platform. [This part is rather interesting because prior to this I had
always thought/been informed that everyone only cared about Hester s sin. I had always blamed
sexism and stereotypical gender roles as the reason behind Hester s punishment but it seems that
the people of Boston wanted to punish the male party just as much.] While Reverend Mr.
Dimmesdale has a very convincing voice, Hester still refuses to give a name.
Hester is now again in her prison cell with her child and is obviously mentally unwell. A doctor
is called and administers medicine to both Hester and her child. Hester admits to previously

Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare
A tragedy is a story in where the main character obtains a flaw that leads to their downfall. This
main character, called a tragic hero, possesses qualities that cause their demise. These qualities are
called tragic flaws. In Julius Caesar, both Julius Caesar and Brutus can be seen as tragic heroes.
However, Brutus is the most tragic heroof the two. The qualities that make Brutus a hero are also
the qualities that lead to his downfall. He cares about everyone, and makes each decision for the
good of Rome. However, the fact that he is too trusting, too honorable, and too stoic, ultimately
leads to his downfall. Brutus first flaw is that he is too trusting. He cares too much about helping
others, and trusts them entirely. At Caesar s funeral, Brutus allows Antony to speak once the
conspirators leave. He believes that Antony has the right to speak at his friend s funeral, and trusts
that Antony s speech will not poorly affect the conspirators (3.1.263 270). Brutus also holds trust in
the members of the conspiracy. He believes that they are acting out of nobility, but instead they are
acting out of jealousy (4.3.9 12). Brutus holds too much trust in the people around him, and that
undying trust leads to his downfall. Brutus next flaw is that he has too much honor and too much
pride. More importantly, he does not want to disgrace himself. Brutus wants to help the people of
Rome more than he wants to help himself. He agrees to kill Caesar for the purpose of benefiting
Rome.

St. Augustine Body
In his Confessions, St. Augustine describes his intellectual progression from loving the beauty of
worldly creations to aspiring to the true beauty of God. His account of his anagogical ascent
parallels a similar intellectual ascent by Socrates in Plato s Symposium. The two ascents are
comparable in that the protagonists both seek to glimpse and experience the ultimate beauty of the
universe, but differ because St. Augustine defines Godas the source of all beauty, whereas Plato
distinguishes between the gods and the ideal form of Beauty. Furthermore, St. Augustine proposes
that the books of the Platonists are ultimately deficient in providing spiritual fulfillment because

7.23). St. Augustine is only able to understand the true beauty of God for a brief second because he
is weighed down by his body. His main limitation of the body is his sexual desires, which also
represents the weakening of the will, derived from his mortality. St. Augustine is aware that he
must transcend beyond his sexual desires in order to sustain the true vision of God, but cannot do
so for an uninterrupted period of time. St. Augustine s anagogical ascent as described in his
Confessions, begins with him questioning his previous assumptions about the physical beauty of
bodies. He questions the truth in these beliefs, and describes that the unchangeable and authentic
eternity of truth transcends my mutable mind (Conf. 7.23). St. Augustine claims his judgements
about the beauty of bodies are transient and are subject to change as his ideas develop. He states
that he cannot possibly claim beauty to be one thing, because his idea of beauty and what is
beautiful itself changes. There is only one inalterable definition of true beauty, which is God, and
St. Augustine cannot label that beauty with his mind which is so prone to change and the
deterioration of mortality. This leads him to view not the beauty of

Finally on page 774, Antigone is still determined to give her loving brother, Polyneices, a proper
burial when she says, ...as for me, I will bury the brother I love. In this incident, Antigone is
headstrong about giving her brother what he deserves, despite the fact that Ismene told her to
obey the law. Antigone is acting as if she were a rebellious teenager because she is contradicting
political laws to perform acts that would seem moral to her for the sake of Polyneices. Like the
discussion Antigone had with her sister, she will remain being headstrong to whoever confronts
her. Later in the play, Antigone was captured for being caught in the act of burying her brother
and is now conversing with King Creon about her decision made to revolt. On page 783, Creon
is surprised when he says, ...you dared defy the law, to Antigone due to boasting her rebellious
actions. In this demonstration, Antigone does not deny her guilt, but declares all of the
information, provided by the guards, true. Antigone does not care for the consequences, which is
death; she knew what she would create for herself when she chose to bury her brother. A second
example of this is on page 784 when Antigone states, There is no guilt in reverence for the dead.

  • 3. Human Activity And The Environment The Earth is dominated by human activity and the impact so far has been overwhelming. As a species we have changed the environment more than any other species. What drives us to do this can be blamed for success to survive and adapt in most environments. Humanity learns to take control and use the environment to benefit from the resources there. The demand for what we want and what we need to survive is bought by currency and controlled by society and politics. Science wants to create easier ways to change the environment. While religion and culture try to enhance beliefs and values among the worlds people. The Earths resource base is what makes life possible upon it. Humans are a part of the ecosystem and need to use the same resources as everything else. The problem is that we take a majority and pollute a fair amount in the process of taking them. The health of the environment can be overlooked when profit is an option. Companies or even individuals can take short cuts in doing a job and pollute the land or water. Economies are important in our lives and it is a main driver in environment change. If it comes to money, the question is any being made and how much does it cost to do whatever? Sometimes a regulation can cost a company more money and will try to change the law to benefit themselves. They greatly influence all the groups that create change and can be positive or negative.

  • 4. Walter Mitty Dream In The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Walter Mitty daydreams into fantastic fantasies as he faces the harshness of reality. Walter is first seen as the Commander of a navy hydroplane through a hurricane. However, the The Old Man ain t afraid of Hell (The) in the hurricane is afraid of his wife as she nags him for speeding. Unnamed Mrs. Mitty continues to command her husband even insisting that he wear gloves. Walter, upset, purposely takes off the gloves at a red light. As he stopped at the red light for too long, a cop tells him to Pick it up, brother! (The). Mitty interestingly assumed the cop to be referring to the gloves he took off instead of the car. Because of the authority figure of the cop, the second daydream is triggered. Mitty... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Thurber had a troublesome marriage with Althea; Walter is constantly being controlled by Mrs. Mitty. Because of Mrs. Mitty s nagging and imposing influence seen in paragraphs 3 and 4, Walter is triggered into a daydream. As a world famous surgeon, he not only is in control of his life, but the life of his patient. Mitty cleverly adapts to emergencies like using a fountain pen to fix the needed surgical machinery (The). Every time he escapes, it is because of a trigger, often through an authority figure imposing on him. In fact, it is the clear distinction between fantasy and reality that makes escaping a theme. The heavy juxtaposition between diction of the dream world and real life is evident. For example, in the second daydream as a surgeon, Dr. Mitty snapped at fellow doctors and nurses to give him a fountain pen and uses fake yet complicated sounding medical terms such as Obstreosis of the ductal tract (The). However, in the subsequent paragraph as Walter clumsily almost hits another car in the parking lot in reality, he only muttered in response to the valet, unable to give a definitive reply. The dramatic juxtaposition between Mitty s spectacular fantasies and mundane reality drives the story. Thurber highlights Mitty s desperateness for action through the drastic differences in scenes. Also, Thurber distinguishes daydreams by incorporating much more imperative voice and literary devices compared to straight dialogue in the reality. Thurber literally makes the fantasies more alive and interesting than boring reality. Onomatopoeia is seen in 3 of the 5 daydreams, ta pocketa pocketa... in paragraph 1 for the hydroplane and the same sound for the surgical machine (The). Rat tat tatting in paragraph 14 reflects the machine gun sounds Captain Mitty heard during war. By using onomatopoeia, ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 5. The Influence Of Pericles On The Cities Of Athens Pericles started the rebuild programme of the acropolis to celebrate the victory over the Persians and also because it was in ruins from the number of wars it had suffered. At the time Athens was slowly becoming a dominant city in Greece and Pericles wanted to showcase Athens in that way. Pericles realised that the city was never properly rebuilt after the last Persian war, every grand temple was still burnt to the ground and as a soon to be popular city , this was no way for an empire to look. Periclesdid not want his city to be resembled as ruined. He also built a new meeting hall for the assembly along with other public buildings.

  • 6. Cultural Syncretism In Greek Art Greco Buddhist art is the artistic form of Greco Buddhism, a cultural syncretism between the Classical Greek culture and Buddhism. Greco Buddhist art is characterized by the apparent idealistic realism and in depth portrayal of Hellenistic art. Representations of the Buddha alongside traditional Greek deities have helped outline the artistic canon for Buddhist art throughout Asia up to the present. Additionally, it is also a strong example of cultural syncretism between eastern and western civilizations and how the combination of the two cultures can redefine ideas of divinity. Gods from the Greek mythological pantheon are incorporated in Buddhist representations, displaying a strong combination of the two belief systems. A prominent depiction... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Although both Herakles and Vajrapani are independent in tradition, blending them together creates a new understanding of the ties between Greco Buddhism and how symbolism can be carried throughout different cultures. As a syncretic combination of Western borrowing in concept and iconography, the protector function of Vajrapani rendered the character distinctively qualified to the personification of Herakles. Interpretations seen throughout currency and sculpture made an undeniable impact and served as the forefront of Greco Guddhism as a canon of art. Additionally, the knowledge of Herakles as a military valor and as a symbol of strength was apparent across cultures; making it nearly impossible to deny how the Heraklean interpretation of Vajrapani served as a cohesive force in forming Greco Buddhism as an artistic movement. Nontheless, the analogous function of the two deities had much impact on Vajrapani being distinctively remembered as Heraklean in nature, a form derided by western classical art. Surely this can be considered a fault of the idolization of western culture in opposition to other cultures and how society perpetuates others as ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 7. The Affordable Care Act Of Obamacare There are so many parts to the Affordable Care Act bill also known as Obamacare, that it can become confusing to most Americans. There are some areas of the bill that I agree with, such as benefits for women, senior citizens and college student s coverage. There are some negatives as well as positive to the Employer Mandate, which we will review. The Affordable Care Act also known as Obamacare was signed into law by President Obama on March 23, 2010. On June 28, 2012 the Supreme Court upheld the Healthcare law. The new bill covers several benefits for families such as guaranteed coverage of pre existing conditions and elimination of gender discrimination (Obamacarefacts pros and cons). There seem to be plenty of gray areas in the Affordable Care Act due to disagreement with state legislative, but some that are very positive in my opinion. We will look at the benefits of the Affordable Care Act for women, senior citizens, college students and also the opposition of the Employer Mandate. The Affordable Care Act might be the best thing in American history for women s health. The new law gave over 19 million uninsured women health coverage. Women overall are more intact with the health system than men because the majority takes care of their families. Women are usually on the forefront at doctor offices and hospitals with their children, making appointments for their spouse and for those who assist with their parents, they are the one scheduling and doing paperwork for ...

In John F. Kennedy s speech and Steve Job s speech, both showed traits that Turner described in his speech. The traits made by Turner, made all the speeches comparable because even Steve Job s and John F. Kennedys speech dealt with some type of frontier. Two traits from Turner s speech which were seen throughout Job s and Kennedy s was inventive mind, and the restless, nervous energy . In John F. Kennedys speech he described a strong believe in how important it was we strived to reach space, because Kennedy wanted the country to have a challenge.

Steve Jobs had an inventive mind because he broke through many frontiers in technology. He used his inventive mind to find different ways to achieve his goals. Unlike Kennedy who wanted to reach for a frontier through challenging people, Jobs found he could be successful being simply loving his craft.

  • 10. Forensic Investigation 3.) It has been estimated that up to 40 percent of the science shown on CSI does not exist (Klein, 2004). CSI makes it seem as though forensic tests are invariably accurate and never spoiled by pollution, mistakes in laboratories, or prejudiced explanations; problems that impair actual forensic science (Risinger et al., 2002) Furthermore, Professor Houck states that CSI incorrectly depicts forensic scienceas this juggernaut of infallibility (Leonard, 2005).

This research makes clear that there are close relationships between the condition of the economy, the media s portrayal of this condition, and people s opinions about the economy.

  • 11. Puritans Ethics And The Pinto Disaster It is important to note, however, that Puritans ethics have been the catalyst that accelerated the growth of capitalism (Weber 107). At the same time, Puritans ethics initiated a formal and instrumental approach to life (115). In the case of the Pinto Disaster, Weber would claim that Ford s decision to settle in lawsuits, instead of installing the safety gadget, is a mathematical approach to life. Firstly, Weber would argue that bureaucracies structure has created a hierarchy system where workers are powerless and have fewer obligations.

  • 12. The Evolution Of Species Extinction Globally, most of the species (both flora and fauna) are under serious threat from direct and indirect human activities; while the direct activities such as deforestation leads to species habitat fragmentation and loss, on the other hand modifies climatic conditions coupled with gas emissions. The synergistic impact of these human driven activities questions the survivability of organisms in the morphed climatic environments. At one level fragmented habitats increase intra and inter species competitions, resulting in decline of population of species, grouping them under rare and threatened category. At other level, the amplified global temperatures in parallel with low precipitation rates, not only creates unsuitable external habitat conditions but also impose internal changes in biological clock and physiological processes of the organisms, in additions to their life history traits (Reynold et al. 2003, Price and Gittleman, 2007). This kind of changed scenario both externally and internally, brings incompatibility in the organism to cope with fluctuating climatic conditions, finally making the species as vulnerable and forcing into the process of extinction. The process of species extinction accelerated with rapid human activities and in the current scenario, many species are in the queue of extinction. We are losing our uncounted valuable biodiversity, in a sense, we still don t have exact idea of how many species are surviving globally, and we are losing them before we ...

  • 13. My Leadership Style Of The Golden Rule Of Treating Others As I reflect on my leadership style as it pertains to ethics I have always considered me to be a very realistic but fair minded person. One of my strong values I live my life by is integrity. I believe in the golden rule of treating others the way you would like to be treated. I have always taken others feelings and actions into consideration when making a decision that not only affect me but the group at large. I noticed that a lot of my morals and values are strongly grounded on the foundation I got from my parents growing up on a tobacco/dairy farm in Metcalfe County. My parents taught me early that all you have in life is your education, your name and your word. Implying that you are only as good as your word and never do anything that will affect your name as your name is who you are. In all aspects of my life integrity is the key to success. I found this chapter to be very interesting as it gave me a greater understanding of my ethical leadership style and explanation of others. When thinking about my ethical perspective it s difficult to pick just one. I have found that depending on who I am with sometimes requires different responses. Because I identify a lot with a transformational leader sometimes with family and students who are really struggling with home, school and other outside barriers I become Altruism and my concerns for my family or that individual play a huge factor in my decision making.

  • 17. History Of Human Intelligence And Artificial Intelligence The history of human culture is a continuous development of the social world and the natural world. Their identity is realized through the system of signs and symbols. The symbolic signification of a wide range of cultural events and facilities helps in streamlining human living space in all periods of its development and existence. Signs and symbols are one of the most meaningful concepts in culture. They represent a universal category, which implies a juxtaposition of the objective image and its deeper meaning. Every symbol has an aesthetic information, which, in turn, has a huge number of degrees of freedom, exceeding the capabilities of human perception. One of the most vivid symbols of human culture is body modificationsuch as tattooing and piercing, which have a long lasting history, deep socio cultural roots, and certain health risks. Historical Roots Signs and symbols are a unique phenomenon in the world history. Professor David D. Nolte, in a book on human intelligence and artificial intelligence, states, the feature that most distinguishes human intelligence from that of other animals is our sophisticated manipulation of signs to represent our world (43). These words echo with the English philosopher Lady Welby Gregory s opinion, carefully defined by Italian semiologist Augusto Ponzio: The logical capacity of signifying, of interpreting, of discriminating between the multiply meanings of the sign is that which distinguishes man from the rest of the animal ...

Therefore, the dispPreOrder function contains an order of N, or O(N) in Big O notation. Moreover, the dispLevelOrder function contains a single while loop, in order to construct a queue of nodes, by level, in order to develop a traversal by each level of the tree like structure. With a single while loop, and calls to the enQueue, deQueue, and isEmpty functions, the dispLevelOrder function executes, or conducts iterations a total of N times, where N represents the number of iterations through the while loop. Therefore, the dispLevelOrder function contains an order of N, or O(N) in Big O notation. The searchBST function is implemented as a recursive function, searching through an already constructed a binary tree. In relation to a binary search tree, the searchBST function executes only once per call, but executes log2N times, as the searching work is partitioned.

With the increase of big data in different fields like medicine, media, social networking etc., there is a need for better processing model which can access the data at the rate at which the data increases. This paper proposed a processing model, HACE theorem which can address the characteristics of the elements of Big Data revolution.

Here in the paper the authors mentioned about the privacy issues and then some dependency issues from social networking sites which shows a need for understanding both semantics and knowledge from applications for processing of Big Data with the use of Big Data mining algorithms in the form of three tiers. In the later part of the paper the author discussed about the challenges faced by Big Data in the three tiers as difficulty in accessing the data in terms of storage and computing, gaining knowledge by understanding semantics and how privacy can be achieved and how the overall optimization can be obtained. These challenges made the authors to develop many data mining methods which explains the convoluted relationships of evolving data. Strengths and Limitations: The introduction part is very clearly explained showing how Big Data can be used and what are the main challenges being faced today due to volume, autonomous, complexity and heterogeneity of data, but drawing the conclusion from the examples mentioned is incomprehensible. The processing framework is conveniently illustrated in three tiers but pipelining of these tiers with a comprehensible example would make the paper more satisfactory. The authors tried to drag the explanation of three tier system rather than being concise.

  • 23. History Of Financial Derivatives Markets And Floating Rate... amount of cash they should hold in their reserve in order to be able to cover the potential loss. Although the term Value at risk has not been used till the1990s, the origins of its measure lie further back in time. The arithmetic behind the VaR were developed by Harry Markowitz (1952) in his studies of effects of asset risk, return, correlation, and diversification on probable investment portfolio returns which contributed to the modern portfolio theory. In fact, the trigger of the use of VaR came from the crisis that tormented the financial market and the regulatory responses to these crises. After the great depression of 1929, the Securities Exchange Act established in 1934 the Security Exchange Commission (SEC), a federal government agency in charge of regulating stocks and options exchanges. Since the SEC initially required banks to keep their borrowing below 2000% of their equity capital, Banks developed risk measures and control devices to ensure that they meet the capital requirements. In the 1970, the introduction of financial derivatives markets and floating rate exchanges have significantly increased the volatility, which is the risk, in the financial markets. The latter was confirmed by the failure in 1995 of Barings, the British investment bank, by the unauthorized trading in Nikkei (Japan s stock market) financial derivatives (futures and options) by Nick Leeson, a young trader in Singapore.

Unfortunately due to its small size, there are not a lot of records of Grenadians immigrating to the US until around 1950. During that time there was a huge influx of Grenadian women looking to start their lives anew. Still then the number of Grenadians emigrating weren t as great in reference to the other Caribbean countries. After the passing of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 (Hart Celler Act), it increased the amount of people allowed to emigrate from Caribbean countries (Love Andrews, 2003). Unlike some countries people leaving Grenada to live in America wasn t necessarily for economic reasons. One of the main reasons is because of the communist views of the government during the 70s and 80s. According to the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) 2006 2010, the total amount of Grenadian Americans in the US is approximately 28,488.

Tourists can cause damage by disregarding signs prohibiting touching or littering. Parts of sites may need to be manipulated or even destroyed to allow for visitor access. Striking a balance between allowing the public to interact with a site and preserving it is very difficult. Some sites, like Bet She an in Israel, give tourists the freedom to touch monuments and even climb onto them to give the visitors authentic experiences, despite the damage it causes.

They have had to battle issues like tourists lack of sensitivity to conservation issues, such as the damage caused by visitors sitting or leaning on delicate masonry and marble, a threat to conservation. Visitors have even been caught splashing water onto mosaics to freshen them up for pictures. Additionally, the general movement of tourists causes the gradual wearing down of the roads and pavements. Tourists also might take chips of stone from the site, as well as accidentally brush against the walls and frescoes, further increasing their rate of deterioration (Wallace 2013). In studies to understand the tourism of the site, it was discovered that many of these tourists damaging actions were not done maliciously, but out of a desire to experience the site. However, the open nature of Pompeii for tourists is also a leading cause in vandalism, graffiti and theft. Some of the vandalism involves scratching one s name into a wall and also stems from a desire to experience the site and tie it to one s self, but that does not make it any less unacceptable. Steps have been taken to restrict tourists to conserve parts of the site. The governing body for Pompeii has begun issuing new tickets that allow for tourists to visit cities such as Herculaneum and Stabiae, to reduce the pressure on Pompeii.

In spite of their different goals and outcomes, it is possible to trace some sort of parallelism between both journeys as they were indirectly intended to shape their characters in line with the social norms of that time.

To demonstrate, as she understood that she is only talented, she turned to her subliminal alternative plan and married the wealthy Laurie. Nevertheless, she sat her relationship with art as patroness while devoting her own art to the service of the family. According to Holly Blackford (2011), Amy s journey abroad eliminated Amy s artistic demon that possessed her for a long time and was depriving her from being a little woman. Furthermore, she also argues that Amy s voyage has smoothened her nature and made her more agreeable and this is particularly evident in her remark that Whenever I see girls struggling along, as we used to do, I want to put out my hand and help them (Alcott, 2008). Indeed, by contrasting Amy s earlier selfishness with her selflessness at the end of the novel, it is obvious that this journey was instrumental in Amy s conversion into a little woman.

The religion signifies that death is something that should be accepted as a part of living.

Brahe portrayed the humanist ideal observation by revising previous theories and scientific tools throughout his career. Three discoveries attributed to Tycho Brahe include how the earth s position is viewed in the universe, mapping of celestial bodies, and his creation of accurate scientific instruments. Before the Renaissance, many scientists believed in the geocentric theory, or the belief that the earth was the center of the universe, and the sun, planets, and other stars revolved around earth. Tycho proved that the path of the comet of 1577 was not circular, but elongated, meaning that it would be impossible according to the geocentric theory. This discovery influenced the ways scientists viewed the location of planets and stars. Tycho viewed and observed a new star in the constellation Cassiopeia that lay beyond the moon and was in the realm of fixed stars. This discovery of the new star influenced the way scientists mapped all celestial bodies. Brahe was one of the first astronomers to realize the importance of error of instrumentation. He believed that some of the errors in the astronomical works of famous Renaissance astronomers were due to poor instrumentation.

They had some similarities, but also many differences in culture, government, and lifestyle. Over the years, they did not get along well together. Sparta was superior to Athens because Sparta had superior training, had a more effective military, and gave women more freedom.

With their wide food spectrums, orcas hunt for turtles, sea lions, crabs, seals and many other food varieties depending on their ecotypes. This makes them travel over large regions in the ocean in search of the same. Just as human beings are top of the food chain with regards terrestrial animals, so are orcas in the oceans.

Poe was a haunted, melancholy man whose writing was raw and soul borne. While his contemporaries were following the path to transcendentalism, he instead chose to write in the gothic style. Perhaps it was to give the masses what they wanted: transcendentalism was an intellectual, elevated form while gothic verses spoke to the everyday man and our preoccupation with darkness and death. Spooky tales, mournful epitaphs, tales of loss and longing and failure these were the types of stories that spoke of humanity and mortality. They were dark but they were accessible. In a world where sГ©ances were the entertainment of the day and where morbid death traditions were as important as the rules of courtship, Poe was the ultimate storyteller.

This smoking problem is not confined to 5 year olds, but every Delhiite who is exposed to the hazardous winter fog endures a damage equivalent to 2 packs of cigarettes. Delayed flights and trains, school closures, black outs, accidents on highways has become a norm during winter in the past 20 years. Apart from the economical losses, a major health impact in the form of a decrease in lung function and acute respiratory diseases is affecting the 18.6 million citizens of Delhi. Recently, the Delhi government had declared a public health emergency owing to the poor air quality, which features often in very poor and severe category, according to the Air Quality Index (AQI) consistently during these winters. The presence of fine particles, indicated by PM 10 and PM 2.5 in AQI, contributes to the poor quality of the air and is the major cause for fogs. Sources of these fine particles vary from the emissions from industrial and automobile emissions to the sand particles transported by global winds. 2 Origins of the winter fog The beginning of winter in Northern India, marked by the largest festival known as Diwali, is the end of the rice harvesting season. The residue stubble on the fields at the end of the rice harvesting season doesn t hold any economic value, hence the farmers resort to burning of 70 80 million tonnes of the stubble. Similarly as the temperatures approach freezing temperatures, the general public rely more on bio mass burning for heating, warmth and cooking purposes. Further, the industrial complexes draw more thermally generated electric power and hence leading to an increase of coal emissions. These aerosols from outside the city gets transported and adds into the fine particle sizes from the automobile emissions and road dust generated within the city. And the fine particles serve as sites of condensation, forming misty droplets that doesn t settle. 2A 2020 vision for Delhi Subin Thomas Apart from the sites for condensation, the conditions for the formation of fog are abundant supply of moisture and the increase of temperature with height.

The Current Tax System, Gjokutaj). Another economic benefit of a single rate flat tax system would be the distribution of taxes. Although the burden would be switched from higher income brackets to middle and lower income brackets, the distribution would be more equal with this type of tax. Currently, taxpayers who are able to shift large portions of their incomes into untaxed forms pay less in taxes than those with equal incomes who are unable or unwilling to make as much use of tax preferences. The result is a wide dispersion in tax burdens among those who are equally well off ( Why Not a True Flat Rate Tax, Browning). This concept along with the other economic effects described, represent what some call a Fair Tax due to the more equal spread of tax liability among all tax brackets. In a country that prides it self on freedoms and fairness, doesn t it only seem right that our country s taxes are run through the same ideals. Although the two major systems of taxes have been described, there is a third system that opposes the first two and is actually viable. It is called a modified flat tax rate system proposal.

This main character, called a tragic hero, possesses qualities that cause their demise. These qualities are called tragic flaws. In Julius Caesar, both Julius Caesar and Brutus can be seen as tragic heroes. However, Brutus is the most tragic heroof the two. The qualities that make Brutus a hero are also the qualities that lead to his downfall. He cares about everyone, and makes each decision for the good of Rome. However, the fact that he is too trusting, too honorable, and too stoic, ultimately leads to his downfall. Brutus first flaw is that he is too trusting. He cares too much about helping others, and trusts them entirely. At Caesar s funeral, Brutus allows Antony to speak once the conspirators leave. He believes that Antony has the right to speak at his friend s funeral, and trusts that Antony s speech will not poorly affect the conspirators (3.1.263 270). Brutus also holds trust in the members of the conspiracy. He believes that they are acting out of nobility, but instead they are acting out of jealousy (4.3.9 12). Brutus holds too much trust in the people around him, and that undying trust leads to his downfall. Brutus next flaw is that he has too much honor and too much pride.
