Essay Violence
Writing an essay on the topic of violence can be an emotionally challenging and intellectually
demanding task. The subject matter itself is inherently sensitive, requiring a delicate balance
between providing a comprehensive analysis and maintaining a respectful tone. Addressing
violence in any form necessitates a deep understanding of its various dimensions—physical,
psychological, and societal.
Researching the topic may expose the writer to distressing statistics, case studies, and real-life
accounts that shed light on the harsh realities of violence. It requires an empathetic approach to
comprehend the impact on individuals and communities. Moreover, constructing a coherent
narrative demands careful consideration of the causes, consequences, and potential solutions to
violence.
Crafting a compelling essay on this theme requires an ability to navigate complex issues without
oversimplifying or sensationalizing them. It involves synthesizing information from diverse
sources, including academic studies, personal narratives, and expert opinions. Striking the right
balance between factual information and engaging storytelling is crucial to maintaining the
reader's interest while conveying the gravity of the subject.
Moreover, the writer must be vigilant to avoid inadvertently glorifying violence or perpetuating
harmful stereotypes. The language used must be precise and measured, steering clear of
sensationalism or gratuitous details. Sensitivity to the potential triggers for readers is also
paramount, as discussions on violence can evoke strong emotional responses.
In conclusion, writing an essay on the topic of violence demands a thoughtful and nuanced
approach. It challenges the writer to delve into uncomfortable realities, navigate complex
emotions, and present a comprehensive understanding of the issue at hand. Despite the difficulty,
it is an important exercise in fostering awareness and promoting meaningful dialogue on a
critical societal concern.

Comcast Corporation Holdings Ltd.
Comcast Corporation Holdings Ltd
Comcast Corporation is a company in the services sector in the cable and
broadcasting industry located in the United States that offers media, entertainment,
and communications. The Corporation is headquartered in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania (Comcast, 2016). This paper will be an extrapolation of Comcast s
history from the day it was founded to its current stature.
Timeline of important events in the organization s history
Comcast Corporation was founded in 1963 by Julian A. Brodsky, Daniel Aaron, and
Ralph J. Roberts and was later incorporated in 2001 on December as a media and
technology firm. In that year, the founders purchased and operated a local antenna
television system that was located in Tupelo, Mississippi. Initially, the company was
called American Cable Systems but in 1969, it changed its name to Comcast. It was
in 1972 that Comcast went public and transacted in the NASDAQ stock market under
the CMCSA ticker symbol. It then underwent a series of acquisitions and mergers
between 1986 and 1996. It is then that it transacted with E! Entertainment, E. W.
Scripps, Maclean Hunter, Storer Communications and Group W Cable. In 1997,
Comcast benefited from Microsoft s $1 billion investment. In a span of the next half a
decade, it also entered several transactions with Greater Philadelphia Cablevision,
Prime Communications, AT T Broadband, Jones Intercable and Lenfest
Communications (Comcast, 2016; Marketline, 2013).

How Does Heidegger Break The Meaning Of Humanism
Humanism refers to a series of concepts. In of its meanings humanism is considered
to be a philosophical system consistent with its assertions on ontology, epistemology,
anthropology, education, aesthetics and politics. On the other side, humanism is
viewed as being the totality of a series of questions on nature and also humannature.
The term humanism has had five different meanings throughout the years. The first
meaning focused on the classical works of grammar, history, and poetry. The second
meaning focused on the interests of human beings and the things they believe to be
central. The third meaning, referred to humanism as an approach to reason and
autonomy as basic sides of human existence. The fourth meaning, refers to the use of
reason, skepticism and scientific methods when one is searching for reality and
configuring human community. The fifth and final meaning, refers to the idea that
ethicscan be grasped in autonomy and moral equality.... Show more content on

He rejected the idea of human development. He also rejected perfectionism along
with the metaphysical conceptualization of humanism. His idea of humanism is
shaped in a way that it focuses on the concept of Being. In the end Heidegger did not
break the connection between humanism and philosophy. Heidegger s Letter on
Humanism is in a sense a reply to Sartre s existentialist humanism. Heidegger states
two important points when he rejects Sartre s view of humanism. Firstly, even
though Heidegger starts with Sartre s concept of being he argues that he will revise
the concept without questioning basic but inadequate terms. Secondly, Heidegger
opposes the concept of value proposed by Sartre. He states in response that virtues

Ride On Mower Research Paper
These days, many families are looking to buy bigger and bigger properties perhaps
they want room to buy their kids that pony they ve always wanted, or they like the
idea of feeling slightly isolated from their neighbours. For whatever reason you opt to
buy a larger block, one factor will always be true a bigger property means a bigger
lawn. In these cases, many homeowners will find a ride on mowertheir best weapon
of defense.
There are three main reasons that lead homeowners to making this decision, including
the fact that a ride on mower helps save valuable time, it offers the rider maximum
comfort, and it is an extremely versatile machine. All of these reasons can even lead

Suitable for long grass, which can actually cause the cutting mechanism of other
types of mower to become jammed or clogged. Handles rough terrain, including
slopes and bumpy ground, which can be tiresome when pushing a mower along.
Comfortable, as you can sit down whilst you mow instead of having to strain your
back pushing.
There are even a number of different types of ride on that you can choose between,
ensuring that you get the perfect type for your needs:
Grass collector, which operates similarly to a standard push mower in that it
collects your grass clippings as you go. This saves you time, as you don t have to
go back later and rake up all your clippings. Mulching, which enables you to get two
jobs done at the same time. As you cut your lawn, the grass clippings are passed
through a secondary cutting mechanism that mulches them up for your compost
heap. Zero turn, which enables you to mow even the narrowest sections of your
property with ease. These mowers are able to turn around on the spot, lessening the

The Tragedy Of Dante s Inferno
Dante s Inferno s central theme is God sees all of the sins people partake in their
lives. Once you enter hell you will be punished for those sins according to the
severity. You will endure a punishment that matches the sin you committed. Dante s
Inferno is a very imaginative way to look at crime and punishment. The story is
made up of three different parts told by three people. A pilgrim is lead on journey by
Virgil, Beatrice, and Saint Bernard. Virgil takes him through Helland the Purgatory.
Hell was created when Satan fell from heaven and became lodged into the center of
the earth. The mountain of Purgatory was created when land was pushed down
into the earth opposite the future site of Jerusalem where a passage was created
and lead to the southern hemisphere as a result of Satan s fall into the earth.
Beatrice takes him through Paradise. Paradise sits on top of the Purgatory and is
where Adam and Eve first dwelt Eden. Bernard prepares him for his final union
with the godhead. The union with the godhead is the end of the journey when the
pilgrim experiences love and reason. Hell is made up of nine different levels and
each houses different severity of sins and the people who occupy these levels endure
a different punishment. As the crime gets worse on each level the punishment is also
more sever. The nine levels of Hell are Limbo, Lustful, Gluttonous, Avaricious,
Wrathful, Heretics, Violent, Ordinary Fraud, and Treacherous Fraud. These are listed
from the lesser sinful
The Challenges, Solutions, Models, Tools And Tools
Introduction
This paper presents a systematic literature review of the challenges, solutions,
models, tools and an example in Distributed Software Development (DSD). The
objective is to collect and systematize reported knowledge in terms of what are the
difficulties in managing DSD projects, what are the best practices to overcome these
difficulties, and how existing models and tools support these practices.
The DSD is a phenomenon with considerable interest from companies all over the
world where the stakeholders from different national and organizational cultures are
involved in developing software. As part of the globalization efforts currently
pervading society, software project team members have become geographically
distributed. However, DSD is technologically and organizationally complex and
presents a variety of challenges to be managed by the software development team. [1]
As distributed environments have become the norm for software development,
coordinating the efforts of development teams has become one of the biggest
challenges faced by the enterprise today. It is hard to imagine any sizable
development project managed without an underlying software configuration
management tool.Teams situated at different geographical locations, including
offshore, collaborate using communication technologies to develop interrelated
software modules that are integrated in shared project workspaces. The software
design process involves many iterative cycles of development
The Spread Of The Blight
approximately over 4 billion trees had died as a result of the pathogen. The spread of
the blight continued with approximately over a million trees dying each year.
Going forward to the mid 20th century, Castanea dentata is almost extinct in
American forests. The blight infection has prevented the American chestnutability to
grow to its full height, and only exist as shrubs that sprout from trees that were
infected with the blight. Despite being from the same species, different species of the
chestnut responded differently to the fungal infection. For instance, the European
chestnut (C. sativa) was slightly devastated, while the Asian Chestnut was almost
immune to infection C. parasitica; the American chestnut is the only species with ...

Having the natural ability to take over unoccupied grounds, the American chestnut
reproduced naturally and ended up filling these areas. They were used for timber
in heavy construction as the wood was not as hard as oak therefore easy to work
with. It was also a good source of fuel for industries and homes in the region. Other
unique properties were such as its ability to grow exceptionally fast, adding up to a
centimeter or more in diameter every year. The nuts from the tree were a good
source of food for the wildlife (Burnham, 1988).
The blight infection The first case of infection was reported in New York in 1904.
A scientist at the Brooklyn Park, Dr. Murril, has made attributions to the initial
diagnosis of Eutypella parasitica fungal infection on American chestnut trees. The
infection begun by affecting the barks of the trees before spreading to other parts
and eventually killing the tree (Hepting,1974). Six years later, almost all the
American chestnut trees in the New York Zoological Park were dead. The fungus
gets into a tree through damage such broken branches, claw marks, and holes. After
getting inside the tree, the fungus then multiplies beneath the bark until it develops
into a canker, cuts out water flow, as well as nutrients to the tree therefore killing
the tree. The effect of canker is severe that a tree dies only four days after being
infected by the blight. Also, the infection by C. parasitica was able to spread very
fast due to the way

miles But we finally got to the top of the steps that everyone at school had been
talking about. We looked down the long stairway and saw nothing after 10 feet. It
was so dark that even our flash light only helped us to see 15 feet. I took the first
step down the old brick stairs, behind me was James and after him was Brandon.

History And Development Of Modern Operative Obstetrics
Essay
Chapter 2 2.1 History of caesarean section and development of modern operative
obstetrics The first modern caesarean section was performed by German
gynaecologist Ferdinand Adolf Kehrer in 1881.(1) Probably the very first
documented evidence of caesarean birth is a legal text dating to theera of
Hammurabi (1795 1750 BC), describing the birth of a male child pulled out of the
womb of a deceased woman (7). The name sectio caesarea was first used by the
French obstetrician Guillimeau in 1598. At that time, the operation was used to
deliver live babies from dead mothers (4). There are three different explanations
about the origin of the name of the operation. 1)In 715 BC, the King of Rome,
Numa Pompilius, codified the Roman laws. According to the law, it was
forbidden to bury a dead pregnant woman before the fetus was excised. If the child
was alive, it was called a caeson . This law, Lex Caesaris or Lex Caesarea, is
assumed to be the origin for the name of the procedure cesarean section (4, 7, 9).
2)It has also been stated, that Julius Caesar has been delivered by this method, and
gave the name for the operation. This is considered unlikely, because his mother is
known to have been alive during Julius Caesars adulthood. During his reign about
100 BC no woman is known to have survived the operation. 3)A third explanation is
that the name is simply derived from the Latin verb caedare, to cut. The word
section is also derived from the latin verb secare, to cut (4).

changes of Ralph throughout Lord of the Flies. Ralph is introduced as a very
likable character who replaces the parents of the boys. He was accepted amongst the
group and had very good leadership skills. Ralph s development and his actions
throughout the story are a very strong representation of how the boys become
corrupt, because they have no parents with them. The reader is introduced to Ralph

Urbanisation of London and that of Lagos in Nigeria. The first article is from a
journal by Doctor Paulette Clarkson London as a cityof today, the second article is a
reading text from website.
Firstly, two cities came to mind; London and Lagos. In first attempt, let s take
London as an urban city going back decades when the Second World War had just
finish then. Like many urban cities around the world, London was on the move with
the advent of the population. The population was rising ... Show more content on

These immigrants have also touched on the excellent cuisine culture of the British
population so much so that some of the diets of these other cultures have been
incorporated into the British cuisine. Consequently, it is apparent that some benefits
can be derived from multiculturalism in an urban city (Clarkson 2011).
With this gain come also the down side of life. Growth in the population can also
lead to other factors that can have adverse effect on the population growth;
overcrowding, unemployment, human traffic and a lot more. Therefore in order to
minimise the extent of such problem, a lot of housing projects sprung up in the
1960s to ease congestion at that time. So these houses weren t meant to attract but to
cushion the problem at that time. In modern times, these houses have been knocked
down and replaced with more modern buildings and affordable ones especially in
areas that were once deemed under develop. Take for example the eastern part of
London and 2012 Olympic Regeneration of the East End (Clarkson 2011).
As mentioned above, there are problems with the influx of immigrants some of which
included the behaviour of migrants and their adaption to the new life. When the
going gets tough on the citizens,
The Characteristics Of Being A Jerk
Jerks; regardless of upbringings, current conditions, or social status, when one is
confronted with the idea of a jerk, certain people or behaviors may swiftly come to
mind. When the concept of a person like Dale, who disregards the needs of others
and does not practice courtesy, arises, it is quite evident that he is a jerk, and
therefore, a considerably unjust being. Based on both the historical analyses of
Polemarchus or Thrasymachus and the current standards elaborated upon by
scholars such as Eric Schwitzgabel, Dale could undeniably be deemed a jerk. Jerks
see the world through goggles that dim others humanity. , states Eric Schwitzgabel,
in his article How to Tell If You re a Jerk (Schwitzgabel). Schwitzgabel states that
with respect to scientifically recognized categories of personality, the jerk is very
similar to that of the dark triad; the dark triad consists of narcissism,
Machiavellianism, and psychopathic tendencies (Schwitzgabel). Regardless, there
are still many traits of being a jerk that cannot be seen in the dark triad
(Schwitzgabel). Narcissism may regard themselves as more important than the
people that surround them, but could also, unlike a jerk, strive to be the center of
attention; Machiavellians believe that other people are tools to be exploited for
personal gain, but in doing so are conscious to their cynicism rather than ignorant;
psychopaths are often selfish and callous, with a tendency to engage in impulsive risk
taking, but jerks

Stereotypes In The Devil And Tom Walker
Worldly wealth is the devil s bait; and those whose minds feed upon riches recede,
in general, from real happiness, in proportion as their stores increase, as the moon,
when she is fullest, is farthest from the sun. This quote, written Robert Burton,
relates to the folktale that Washington Irving wrote. Irving s story, The Devil and
Tom Walker , is about a poor man who sold his soul to the devil to gain wealth over
night. Thus, the story The Devil and Tom Walker illustrates a folktale with the
inclusion of the folktale characteristics stereotypes, unlikely events, and lessons to be
learned. To begin, one of the reasons the The Devil and Tom Walker embodies a
folktale is due to the numerous stereotypes utilized in the story. Stereotyped... Show

Unlikely events are events that are not probable or likely to happen in everyday
life. Tom s first meeting with the devil is an unlikely event. The way that the devil
first appears is after Tom takes a walk through the forest and stops at an old fort to
explore its surroundings. When he comes across an old cloven skull, in which an
Indian Tomahawk was buried deep within. Tom kicks the skull and Irving writes
Humph! said Tom Walker, as he gave it a kick to shake the dirt from it. Let that
skull alone! said a gruff voice. Tom lifted up his eyes. and beheld a great black man
seated directly opposite him, on the stump of a tree. He was exceedingly surprised...
(2). To extend on this, the thought that a supernatural creature like the devil can
appear out of nowhere is an unlikely event. Continuing on, another unlikely event that
takes place in this short story is when the devil burns his thumbprint on Tom s
forehead as a signature. This can be a sign that the devil is leaving his mark with
Tom and the devil will always be apart of him. But the fact that a supernatural
creature can touch a human being a leave a mark is unlikely to ever happen. Those
are just a few of unlikely events that occur in The Devil and Tom

The Defense Presented By Paul University Essay
The defense presented by Paul University in this case is based on the fact that Ms.
Leslie signed a waiver agreement before attending a yoga class and additionally
exhibited irresponsible behavior while participating in the class. Paul University
is a private university in New York, and sponsors a Recreational Sports
Department. This department offered the introductory yoga class to the students
at the university however; it was not a required course, not part of the educational
mission of the university, but part of a recreational sports program. Furthermore,
this recreational yoga class was not art of the interscholastic or intercollegiate
sport department at Paul University. Ms. Leslie voluntarily enrolled in the
introductory yoga class and signed a standard waiver. A waiver represents a type
of contract in which one party relinquishes their right to sue the other party (Sharp,
2014). In order for waivers to be upheld, two criteria must be met. First, the waiver
must be used in the right circumstances and secondly the waiver must be written
properly (Sharp et al., 2014). Paul University asserted that the waiver was properly
formulated because Ms. Leslie, an 18 year old freshmen, is considered an adult and
therefore has the capacity to make reasonable decisions and sign applicable
documents. Additionally the waiver does not violate public policy as Paul University
is a private institution and the yoga class is not part of the university s essential
services. There is
Fashion Values In The Fashion Industry
The current reality of clothing production, called fast fashion, is the industry standard
of mass producing luxury styles in a matter of weeks. To do so, clothes are churned
out quickly using poor quality materials. This is problematic because of the large
amount of unnecessary environmental damage that this business model causes. The
fashionindustry should abandon the current trend of fast fashion and disposable
clothingto decrease the amount of hazardous environmental waste created. The
fashion industry should adopt slow fashion values that aim to cut excess consumer
waste by changing the current societal norms around fashion buying and clothing
disposal. Fast fashion has become the pinnacle of the fashion industry because it is
very profitable. Cheap material and cheap overseas labor has made places like
Walmart, Zara, and H M twice as profitable as any retail store (Cline, The Clothes
Make the Movement , 21). The average American household spends one thousand
and seven hundred dollars on apparel every year. One third of the average
household expense is claimed by women aged sixteen and older who spend over
five hundred dollars on clothing and shoes annually (Bureau of Labor Statistics).
That dollar amount translates into an average of sixty eight items of clothing and
seven pairs of shoes per the average American (Cline, The Clothes Make the
Movement , 21). Cheap textile materials quickly fall apart, lose color and shape, and
are replaced by new fashion trends.
Summary Of The 124th Psalm
Introduction
In the 124th Psalm, voice is given to a beautiful question about the tragic reality that
would have been theirs if their help had come from anyone but the LORD. The what
if? question is worth asking, and numerous moments recorded in the Hebrew Bible
speak of times of strife where, in the end, God comes through. Dr. Toni Craven
describes the whole of the Psalms as a self contained religious library of prayer in
that it incorporates an enormously wide spectrum of issues and reflects various
historical backgrounds.[footnoteRef:0] The echoes of those moments in the
narratives of the Hebrew Bible are heard behind the words of Psalm 124.
Fortunately, the utter destruction the 124th Psalm alludes to doesn t come to
fruition. In spite of the power wielded by their enemies, power that is as
consuming as the appetite of a devouring monster and as uncontrollably destructive
as a flash flood raging, and even though the ones who are against the people of God
possess a grasp that is as sure and as strong as a hunter s well set snare, those
mortals cannot overcome the ones the LORD chooses to defend. Instead, their
rescue from that trouble receives the emphasis and is celebrated as the salvific,
liberating work of God. Claus Westermann aptly describes Psalm 124 thusly: Psalm
124 is able to transport us into the hour in which Israel looked back upon a rescue
from grave trouble and summed up this experience of deliverance in language of
relived praise, understandable

look and identity. The art director was David Lazan and cinematographer Mauro
Fiore. The entiriety of the movie is comprised in a single day which can be
challenging for cinematographers and art directors. The film seemed to be filled
with brief stints of consolidated action and emotion. This gave the plot of the film the
feel as though it was unfolding in only a single day.
Light can make a scene look more realistic by creating shadows and highlights. In
this scene Alonzo if enraged with anger as he looks for help from the gangsters

which was a perfect fit for this scene. The dark lighting used in these scene
Athenian Jury Structure
1. State the major differences between the Athenian system of juries and the jury
structure and its proceedings of present day the American judicial system. One of
the major differences between the Athenian system of juries and the modern
American judicial system is in the size of the actual jury. The Athenian jury
structure is made up of a very large number of jurors. For example, during Socrates
trial there were about 500 jurors present. On the other hand, in the modern American
judicial system, the jury is only composed of twelve jurors. Another difference in the
structure of the two systems is in how the jurors reach a final verdict. In the Athenian
system, only a simple majority is needed for a final acquittal or guilty verdict.

Upon hearing the oracles answer, Socrates was confused and did not know the
meaning of the Oracle s answer. At that time, before Socrates understood the meaning
of the oracle, he was aware that others were wiser that him, he just didn t know that
admitting it himself would prove that he was actually the wisest. In order to try to
understand the meaning, Socrates needed to search for proof of someone wiser than
him, until he finally figured out that admitting his own ignorance was the true
meaning of being the wisest (Navia

For the past handful of years America has had its fair share of problems terrorist

This is why every year twenty percent of teachers in urban districts quit and around
five to ten percent go on strike. Probably the most well known teacher strike stems
from Chicago. In this area, 26,000 Chicago Public School teachers went on strike
due to unfair job ethics and pay. Additionally, the same movement (on a much
smaller scale) was starting to be found nationwide in Florida, Washington,
California, New York and also worldwide in countries such as Mexico, Brazil,
Greece, and England. What we are seeing is not something that can be ignored. It is
something that must be addressed as soon as possible, not just in America, but also
in other countries as well. In the palatial grounds of Mexico City alone, thousands of
cars and twenty two million people have been brought down, not by religious
conflicts or terrorist attacks, but rather an aggregation of furious school teachers.

Key Elements Of Dramatic Iron In An Inspector s An...
Eric is an important figure in many ways. He helps to develop at least five key
themes. In this essay, we will look at his contribution to each of these. We will also
look at how he adds to key moments of dramatic tension. The most obvious theme
emphasized by Eric is that of social justice. One example is the part where he
promotes this idea just after the inspector begun questioning Mr Birling: as you
were saying Dad, a man has to look after himself. Eric is ironically quoting his
father here, trying to make him in front of the inspector. Birling being pressurized by
the inspector, but Eric is criticizing his father s opposition to ideas of social justice
and caring about others. The fact that his father cuts him off (indicated by the dash)...

The scene where Eric shouts to Mr and Mrs Birling furiously can be a moderate
evidence. And I say the girls dead and we helped to kill her and that s what matters
indicates that he is tremendously stressed out, but feels irritated at the same time
because his parents pretend as if nothing had happened as soon as they suspect about
the existence of the inspector. At this part, strong, restrained atmosphere does not
alleviate; instead, the tension increases greatly after Eric reproaches Mr. Berling in
an acerbic tone. Additionally, Eric s presence is somehow important for various
reasons. For instance, the element, humor, which Eric contains, creates a small gap to
break down the depressing mood of the play. Eric makes fun of Sheila and acts
mischievously. Audience are able to know this by the quote, She s got a nasty
temper, but she s not bad really. Good old Sheila . The quote gives a friendly
impression compared to the heavy atmosphere of Mr. Berling creates as soon as he
speaks. However, the fact that Sheila simply ignoring her brother s playful behavior
tells us she doesn t care about his jokes really much nor her feeling gets hurt from
The Origins Of The First World War
The Origins of the First World War The Road To War Is Paved With Good
Alliances Did a failure in alliance cause World War 1? Who s who? Great Britain
had a very large empire mostly in Africa and Asia. Britain was choosing to keep
out of all matters in Europe that didn t concern them, this policy was called
Splendid Isolation and for some time, it was very splendid for Britain, they were
once the top for industrial and maritime industrial. Because of Splendid Isolation, it
was very hard for anybody to know where Britain stood on matters (Splendid
Isolation. History BlogSpot). They needed to protect their overseas empire, so the
British had a very large navy. The French had a well trained army, however France
was behind Britain and German in economic wealth, it made less steel and coal
than the other two countries. France and Germany had already had conflicts in the
past when France lost Alsace and Lorraine to Germany back in the Franco Prussian
War of 1871 and they wanted it back, however they were just no match for
Germany. For now, France had to wait Russia was the biggest, but poorest country
in Europe that Tsar Nicholas ruled, however he had a very odd way of leading his
country, violently stopping unpopular opinions and allowing people he liked to
have a say in Russia s policy making. Russia had a big army but they were behind on
new technology. The rest of Russia s people were simple farmers, with over 80% of
the population doing some kind of land related job.
Italy Adopted A Realist Strategy
It is based on a view of the individual as primarily fearful, selfish and power seeking.
Individuals organize in states, each of which acts in pursuit of its own national
interest (Mingst and Arreguin Toft, 2014: 79)
In light of this definition, it is possible to state that Italy adopted a realist strategy in
non acting against Libya. In the lack of reaction and in not taking a strong line of
action towards the African country, the aim of the Italian policy makers was to
preserve the country s own interests. Policy makers emphasized the abstention from
opening fire on Libyan forces as part of Rome s strategy of smoothing its role in the
Libyan intervention.
Although Italy was involved in the U.S. European intervention in Libya, they did not
actually attack the troops of their close ally, Moammar Gaddafi. Rome s continuous
insistence on highlighting that it was both part of the intervention but had abstained
from playing an aggressive role against Gaddafi was a strategy to allow Italy to
continue to balance the rebels in the east with the relationship with Gaddafi in the
west of Libya.
Italy had too many interests in Libya to pick one side and react consequently.
As previously stated, Italy s business, energy and national security interests would be
directly impacted by the happenings in Libya.
Italy had investments worth an estimated 11 billion American Dollars in Libya
(Lombard, 2012: 37 39).
While it had assets in eastern Libya, the majority of them were in the west
How The French View The Natives In Black Robe
Black Robe is a film that greatly exemplifies the views the Natives and the French
held of one another during the 1600s. Both groups help impressions of each other that
influenced how they interacted together. During the Native and French encounters in
Black Robe, it was apparent that Natives viewed the French as incompetent, weak,
but also interesting; the French had their own impressions that the Natives were
savages and in need of salvation. It is with the Algonquins that one can see the
interest they held in their view of the French. In Black Robe, there is a scene with the
Natives sitting in a church like building watching a clock. The Algonquins were
enticed with the mechanism and asked the French questions about it. They were
perplexed... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
From beginning to end, any mention of the Natives by the French was usually
linked to the word savages. This was shown in several scenes in the film. Towards
the beginning, before Father Laforgue and Daniel leave on the Hurons mission,
two men are talking to one another about how they would not go on such a
mission with savages. Another example of this reference is near the end of the
film when Father Laforgue finds Father Jerome in the Huron village and even
Father Jerome refers to the ailing Natives as savages when speaking about them.
Father Laforgue s mission in the film clearly represents the French s view that
Natives were in need of salvation. Father Laforgue s main goal throughout the film
was to convert or save the Natives (the Algonquins and Hurons) and have them
believe in Christianity. A great example of this is during the scene of Chomina s
death. Even as he is dying, Father Laforgue begs him to allow himself to be
baptized and saved in order to attain Christian paradise. Chomina s response to this
no, because he says his family will not be there. Father Laforgue does eventually
achieve his mission to convert the Natives to Christianity in the Huron village at the
end of the film, but he does so with a different mindset after all he had been through
with Daniel and the
Speech Learning Mechanism
SLM (Flege, 1995, 2003) is based on the assumption that the speech learning
mechanism remains intact across the life span. It predicts that adults retain the
ability to acquire new phonetic categories in their L2, contrary to the notion of a
critical period (Lenneberg, 1967; Penfield Roberts, 1959). However, the
acquisition of L2 speech sounds depends on the perceived cross language phonetic
distance and the state of development of the L1; thus, in this view, the L1 acts as a
template or filter at the early stages of L2 acquisition. A crucial assumption of SLM
is that L1 and L2 phonetic subsystems are not fully separated and that L2 speech
sounds may be judged to be instances of L1 speech sound categories. SLM attempts
to explain how speech perceptionaffects L2 phonological acquisition by
distinguishing two kinds of sounds: new and similar. New sounds are those that are
not identified with any L1 sound, while similar sounds are those perceived to be the
same as certain L1 sounds. In this view, a process of equivalence classification
hinders or prevents the establishment of new phonetic categories for similar sounds.
The L1 system becomes attuned to just those contrasts of the language that are
meaningful in the L1, so the system becomes resistant to the addition of new
categories. L1 and L2 sounds are posited to exist in a shared system.
Therefore, SLM predicts that when a new phonetic category is established for an L2
sound that is close to an L1 sound,

The Hurt Locker Essay
The Hurt Locker, a movie which depicts the the War in Iraq, looks at the many
different aspects of war. The soldiers in this movie have to endure many severe
conditions such as the possibility of dying on the spot because of an IED or trying
to diffuse a bomb. Even though the mission is to win in a war, these fighters are still
human beings. The soldiers look out for their own comrades, but also want to
protect the Iraqis they have befriended. However, there were times when both the
Iraqis and even some soldiers needed help, but got no aid. As a result, the remaining
soldiers feel guilt, as if they have let down people who count on them.
One example of expressing guilt is when Sergeant James finds Beckham s dead body.

The World Of The Soviet Union
Space Race What would the History of the world have be if the United States
never landed on the moon, but instead the Soviet Union was successful at sending
cosmonauts to the moon and were the first humans to ever step foot on a celestial
body? This is what I wanted to explore in my research, this is all subjective we
cannot go back in time to see what the outcome would have been if it never
happened the way it did. The idea has been talked about even with the sceptics who
think the whole moon landing in 1969 was a hoax to give the United States the
title and make the Soviets stop pursuing the moon landing. In this paper I want to
give a little history of actual events and then examine ideas of alternative events.
Towards the end of 1957 the Soviet Union Launched the first man made satellite in
space called Sputnik I on October 4th and that event changed history forever
(History.com, 2010). Sputnik wasn t much as far as what we know as satellites
today it was just a sphere that sent radio signals back to earth while it orbited the
earth in low orbit for 3 months. The population of the United States now feared how
much more technology advanced the soviets were compared to the Americans who at
the time only thought about putting satellites in space for surveillance of foreign
countries especially the soviets. One month later the Soviets successfully launched
Sputnik II which this time carried the first dog into space named Laika which orbited

The lighting also reflects Priestley s stage direction and persona of the Inspector,
disconcerting habit of looking hard at the person he addresses before actually
speaking . This shows not only does the light expose them but so does the Inspector
and so he must know more than they think he does as he is hard and bright, just like
the light in his presence.
Priestley uses the Inspector as a mouth piece to convey his messages but he also
uses the doorbell too at the start of the scene. The use of the sharp doorbell ring is
an example of a dramatic device as it builds tension, because it interrupts Mr
Birling s pompous speech and so it is almost as if Priestley is speaking through the
doorbell. It is also quite witty that only a doorbell can shut Mr Birling up and so
the person who rang it must be a more important and powerful figure and so what
this person might have to say is important and not only do the Birlings have to listen
but every egotistical person of the time and the audience too. However just before
the bell rings Mr Birling is talking about how community is utter nonsense and how
a man has to mind his own business and look after himself and his own... . This is
the main point Priestley is trying to fight against as this was the common thought and
opinion on the class of 1912 and so he cuts Birling off at this moment to show

significant since it shows the fact that as the chapter suggests the general people s
new viewpoint which they are starting to see of Hester; of her diligence which
proves to be much more than enough to be recognized. Now, the scarlet letter which
she wears is still why people shun her, however, they are now doing this from a habit
that has been cultivated throughout the years rather than for her sin.
It is remarkable that persons who speculate... the external regulations of society.

loud instead.

Roanoke Voyage Research Paper
The Roanoke Voyages were England s first attempt at settling in North America.
Sir Walter Raleigh asked for Queen Elizabeth s permission to begin exploration
and she agreed to let him organize the expedition. However, he was not allowed to
be physically involved in the actual voyages because she believed he was a valuable
asset to her and did not want him travelling far away. The first expedition, in 1584,
was an exploratory venture. Sir Walter Raleigharranged for two ships to begin the
exploration. The two captains of the ships were Arthur Barlowe and Philip Amadas.
They discovered fertile land with plenty of game. The area, near the Pamlico and
Currituck, would be a great place to begin settlement. In addition to their own
accounts of the journey, they also brought back two native Americans, named Manteo

settlement. Natives told tales of potential Gold mines and calmer waters for better
ship harbors. Hostility and violences between Lane s men and their primary food and
supply source, the Secotan tribe, forced the settlers to return to England. Fortunately,
they returned with detailed accounts of their experiences. Two major contributors of

During the past decades, various Criminologists developed different theories in an
attempt to explain the causes of crime within the society. In return, they were
successful, which are adopted and accepted today. Indeed, all of the theories explain
the root causes of crime. One of these theories is anomie or strain theory, which
attempts to explain why the majority of the people who commits crime belong to the
lower class. It argues that the frustration of the people who belong to the lower class
causes crime towards the higher class (Merton, 1938). In 1985, Robert Agnew got

GST defines strains as negative life events and conditions, which are commonly
disliked by the people who experienced it or the negative experiences of a person in
a given group (Agnew, 1992; 2001; 2006). Strain is often classified into two
distinct types: the objective strain and the subjective strain . The objective strain
refers to those negative life events and conditions experienced by an individual that
are rejected by most members of people in a given group (Agnew, 2001). Usually,
these individuals could not achieve their goals or they lack the means of achieving
them. They usually suffer from poverty (e.g., lack of adequate food and shelter),
unemployment (e.g. unable to find a good work), and discrimination regardless of
gender, race or ethnicity. On the other hand, subjective strain refers to those
negative life events experienced by individuals or experiences rejected by them
(Agnew, 2001; 2006). Some of these events are parental divorce, failure at school,
death of loved ones or family members, death of a close friend,

One of the horses breaks its leg and Robert is ordered to kill it. He shoots it once, but
the horse is still alive and its mane is described as a tangle of rattlesnakes (68). The
snakes symbolize the feelings of immorality that are welling up inside of Robert.
He knows that killing an animal is against his moral values, but his role in the army
is more important to him. He feels that he has to show his nerve and ability as an
officer (66). Robert finally shoots the horse behind its ear and kills it. This is the first
time he intentionally kills a living creature in the story.
Robert s ethics return to him and take priority over military obedience when he

The minister gave an unseemly outbreak of temper and left. The minister given a
few hours of privacy returns and apologizes. Roger Chillingworth readily assented,

his actions. He would always leave right after with a mysterious and puzzled smile
upon his lips. A rare case! he muttered. I must needs look deeper into it. A strange
sympathy betwixt soul and body! Were it only for the art s sake, I must search this
matter to the bottom! (142). Furthermore, in early May the minister happens to be at
the scaffold, seeing Hester and Pearl, invites them to be with him. Roger
Chillingworth shows up. The minister became suspicious and asked Hester who
Chillingworth really is. Who is that man, Hester? gasped Mr. Dimmesdale, overcome
with terror. I shiver at him! Dost thou know the man? I hate him

Essay Violence

  • 1. Essay Violence Writing an essay on the topic of violence can be an emotionally challenging and intellectually demanding task. The subject matter itself is inherently sensitive, requiring a delicate balance between providing a comprehensive analysis and maintaining a respectful tone. Addressing violence in any form necessitates a deep understanding of its various dimensions—physical, psychological, and societal. Researching the topic may expose the writer to distressing statistics, case studies, and real-life accounts that shed light on the harsh realities of violence. It requires an empathetic approach to comprehend the impact on individuals and communities. Moreover, constructing a coherent narrative demands careful consideration of the causes, consequences, and potential solutions to violence. Crafting a compelling essay on this theme requires an ability to navigate complex issues without oversimplifying or sensationalizing them. It involves synthesizing information from diverse sources, including academic studies, personal narratives, and expert opinions. Striking the right balance between factual information and engaging storytelling is crucial to maintaining the reader's interest while conveying the gravity of the subject. Moreover, the writer must be vigilant to avoid inadvertently glorifying violence or perpetuating harmful stereotypes. The language used must be precise and measured, steering clear of sensationalism or gratuitous details. Sensitivity to the potential triggers for readers is also paramount, as discussions on violence can evoke strong emotional responses. In conclusion, writing an essay on the topic of violence demands a thoughtful and nuanced approach. It challenges the writer to delve into uncomfortable realities, navigate complex emotions, and present a comprehensive understanding of the issue at hand. Despite the difficulty, it is an important exercise in fostering awareness and promoting meaningful dialogue on a critical societal concern.

  • 6. The Tragedy Of Dante s Inferno Dante s Inferno s central theme is God sees all of the sins people partake in their lives. Once you enter hell you will be punished for those sins according to the severity. You will endure a punishment that matches the sin you committed. Dante s Inferno is a very imaginative way to look at crime and punishment. The story is made up of three different parts told by three people. A pilgrim is lead on journey by Virgil, Beatrice, and Saint Bernard. Virgil takes him through Helland the Purgatory. Hell was created when Satan fell from heaven and became lodged into the center of the earth. The mountain of Purgatory was created when land was pushed down into the earth opposite the future site of Jerusalem where a passage was created and lead to the southern hemisphere as a result of Satan s fall into the earth. Beatrice takes him through Paradise. Paradise sits on top of the Purgatory and is where Adam and Eve first dwelt Eden. Bernard prepares him for his final union with the godhead. The union with the godhead is the end of the journey when the pilgrim experiences love and reason. Hell is made up of nine different levels and each houses different severity of sins and the people who occupy these levels endure a different punishment. As the crime gets worse on each level the punishment is also more sever. The nine levels of Hell are Limbo, Lustful, Gluttonous, Avaricious, Wrathful, Heretics, Violent, Ordinary Fraud, and Treacherous Fraud. These are listed from the lesser sinful
  • 7.

The objective is to collect and systematize reported knowledge in terms of what are the difficulties in managing DSD projects, what are the best practices to overcome these difficulties, and how existing models and tools support these practices.

However, DSD is technologically and organizationally complex and presents a variety of challenges to be managed by the software development team.

Six years later, almost all the American chestnut trees in the New York Zoological Park were dead. The fungus gets into a tree through damage such broken branches, claw marks, and holes. After getting inside the tree, the fungus then multiplies beneath the bark until it develops into a canker, cuts out water flow, as well as nutrients to the tree therefore killing the tree.

  • 10. History And Development Of Modern Operative Obstetrics Essay Chapter 2 2.1 History of caesarean section and development of modern operative obstetrics The first modern caesarean section was performed by German gynaecologist Ferdinand Adolf Kehrer in 1881.(1) Probably the very first documented evidence of caesarean birth is a legal text dating to theera of Hammurabi (1795 1750 BC), describing the birth of a male child pulled out of the womb of a deceased woman (7). The name sectio caesarea was first used by the French obstetrician Guillimeau in 1598. At that time, the operation was used to deliver live babies from dead mothers (4). There are three different explanations about the origin of the name of the operation. 1)In 715 BC, the King of Rome, Numa Pompilius, codified the Roman laws. According to the law, it was forbidden to bury a dead pregnant woman before the fetus was excised. If the child was alive, it was called a caeson . This law, Lex Caesaris or Lex Caesarea, is assumed to be the origin for the name of the procedure cesarean section (4, 7, 9). 2)It has also been stated, that Julius Caesar has been delivered by this method, and gave the name for the operation. This is considered unlikely, because his mother is known to have been alive during Julius Caesars adulthood. During his reign about 100 BC no woman is known to have survived the operation. 3)A third explanation is that the name is simply derived from the Latin verb caedare, to cut. The word section is also derived from the latin verb secare, to cut (4).

The essay will talk about the two choosing articles in regards to Urbanisation of London and that of Lagos in Nigeria. The first article is from a journal by Doctor Paulette Clarkson London as a cityof today, the second article is a reading text from website. Firstly, two cities came to mind; London and Lagos.

These immigrants have also touched on the excellent cuisine culture of the British population so much so that some of the diets of these other cultures have been incorporated into the British cuisine. Consequently, it is apparent that some benefits can be derived from multiculturalism in an urban city (Clarkson 2011). With this gain come also the down side of life. Growth in the population can also lead to other factors that can have adverse effect on the population growth; overcrowding, unemployment, human traffic and a lot more. Therefore in order to minimise the extent of such problem, a lot of housing projects sprung up in the 1960s to ease congestion at that time. So these houses weren t meant to attract but to cushion the problem at that time. In modern times, these houses have been knocked down and replaced with more modern buildings and affordable ones especially in areas that were once deemed under develop. Take for example the eastern part of London and 2012 Olympic Regeneration of the East End (Clarkson 2011). As mentioned above, there are problems with the influx of immigrants some of which included the behaviour of migrants and their adaption to the new life. When the going gets tough on the citizens,
  • 14. The Characteristics Of Being A Jerk Jerks; regardless of upbringings, current conditions, or social status, when one is confronted with the idea of a jerk, certain people or behaviors may swiftly come to mind. When the concept of a person like Dale, who disregards the needs of others and does not practice courtesy, arises, it is quite evident that he is a jerk, and therefore, a considerably unjust being. Based on both the historical analyses of Polemarchus or Thrasymachus and the current standards elaborated upon by scholars such as Eric Schwitzgabel, Dale could undeniably be deemed a jerk. Jerks see the world through goggles that dim others humanity. , states Eric Schwitzgabel, in his article How to Tell If You re a Jerk (Schwitzgabel). Schwitzgabel states that with respect to scientifically recognized categories of personality, the jerk is very similar to that of the dark triad; the dark triad consists of narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathic tendencies (Schwitzgabel). Regardless, there are still many traits of being a jerk that cannot be seen in the dark triad (Schwitzgabel). Narcissism may regard themselves as more important than the people that surround them, but could also, unlike a jerk, strive to be the center of attention; Machiavellians believe that other people are tools to be exploited for personal gain, but in doing so are conscious to their cynicism rather than ignorant; psychopaths are often selfish and callous, with a tendency to engage in impulsive risk taking, but jerks

Stereotypes In The Devil And Tom Walker Worldly wealth is the devil s bait; and those whose minds feed upon riches recede, in general, from real happiness, in proportion as their stores increase, as the moon, when she is fullest, is farthest from the sun. This quote, written Robert Burton, relates to the folktale that Washington Irving wrote. Irving s story, The Devil and Tom Walker , is about a poor man who sold his soul to the devil to gain wealth over night. Thus, the story The Devil and Tom Walker illustrates a folktale with the inclusion of the folktale characteristics stereotypes, unlikely events, and lessons to be learned.

Unlikely events are events that are not probable or likely to happen in everyday life. Tom s first meeting with the devil is an unlikely event. The way that the devil first appears is after Tom takes a walk through the forest and stops at an old fort to explore its surroundings. When he comes across an old cloven skull, in which an Indian Tomahawk was buried deep within. Tom kicks the skull and Irving writes Humph! said Tom Walker, as he gave it a kick to shake the dirt from it. Let that skull alone! said a gruff voice. Tom lifted up his eyes. and beheld a great black man seated directly opposite him, on the stump of a tree. He was exceedingly surprised... (2). To extend on this, the thought that a supernatural creature like the devil can appear out of nowhere is an unlikely event. Continuing on, another unlikely event that takes place in this short story is when the devil burns his thumbprint on Tom s forehead as a signature. This can be a sign that the devil is leaving his mark with Tom and the devil will always be apart of him. But the fact that a supernatural creature can touch a human being a leave a mark is unlikely to ever happen. Those are just a few of unlikely events that occur in The Devil and Tom

  • 19. The Defense Presented By Paul University Essay The defense presented by Paul University in this case is based on the fact that Ms. Leslie signed a waiver agreement before attending a yoga class and additionally exhibited irresponsible behavior while participating in the class. Paul University is a private university in New York, and sponsors a Recreational Sports Department. This department offered the introductory yoga class to the students at the university however; it was not a required course, not part of the educational mission of the university, but part of a recreational sports program. Furthermore, this recreational yoga class was not art of the interscholastic or intercollegiate sport department at Paul University. Ms. Leslie voluntarily enrolled in the introductory yoga class and signed a standard waiver. A waiver represents a type of contract in which one party relinquishes their right to sue the other party (Sharp, 2014). In order for waivers to be upheld, two criteria must be met. First, the waiver must be used in the right circumstances and secondly the waiver must be written properly (Sharp et al., 2014). Paul University asserted that the waiver was properly formulated because Ms. Leslie, an 18 year old freshmen, is considered an adult and therefore has the capacity to make reasonable decisions and sign applicable documents. Additionally the waiver does not violate public policy as Paul University is a private institution and the yoga class is not part of the university s essential services. There is
  • 20. Fashion Values In The Fashion Industry The current reality of clothing production, called fast fashion, is the industry standard of mass producing luxury styles in a matter of weeks. To do so, clothes are churned out quickly using poor quality materials. This is problematic because of the large amount of unnecessary environmental damage that this business model causes. The fashionindustry should abandon the current trend of fast fashion and disposable clothingto decrease the amount of hazardous environmental waste created. The fashion industry should adopt slow fashion values that aim to cut excess consumer waste by changing the current societal norms around fashion buying and clothing disposal. Fast fashion has become the pinnacle of the fashion industry because it is very profitable. Cheap material and cheap overseas labor has made places like Walmart, Zara, and H M twice as profitable as any retail store (Cline, The Clothes Make the Movement , 21). The average American household spends one thousand and seven hundred dollars on apparel every year. One third of the average household expense is claimed by women aged sixteen and older who spend over five hundred dollars on clothing and shoes annually (Bureau of Labor Statistics). That dollar amount translates into an average of sixty eight items of clothing and seven pairs of shoes per the average American (Cline, The Clothes Make the Movement , 21). Cheap textile materials quickly fall apart, lose color and shape, and are replaced by new fashion trends.
  • 21. Summary Of The 124th Psalm Introduction In the 124th Psalm, voice is given to a beautiful question about the tragic reality that would have been theirs if their help had come from anyone but the LORD. The what if? question is worth asking, and numerous moments recorded in the Hebrew Bible speak of times of strife where, in the end, God comes through. Dr. Toni Craven describes the whole of the Psalms as a self contained religious library of prayer in that it incorporates an enormously wide spectrum of issues and reflects various historical backgrounds.[footnoteRef:0] The echoes of those moments in the narratives of the Hebrew Bible are heard behind the words of Psalm 124. Fortunately, the utter destruction the 124th Psalm alludes to doesn t come to fruition. In spite of the power wielded by their enemies, power that is as consuming as the appetite of a devouring monster and as uncontrollably destructive as a flash flood raging, and even though the ones who are against the people of God possess a grasp that is as sure and as strong as a hunter s well set snare, those mortals cannot overcome the ones the LORD chooses to defend. Instead, their rescue from that trouble receives the emphasis and is celebrated as the salvific, liberating work of God. Claus Westermann aptly describes Psalm 124 thusly: Psalm 124 is able to transport us into the hour in which Israel looked back upon a rescue from grave trouble and summed up this experience of deliverance in language of relived praise, understandable

Cinematographers and art directors play a very important and creative role in film production. They work closely with the director and give a film its unique visual look and identity. The art director was David Lazan and cinematographer Mauro Fiore. The entiriety of the movie is comprised in a single day which can be challenging for cinematographers and art directors. The film seemed to be filled with brief stints of consolidated action and emotion. This gave the plot of the film the feel as though it was unfolding in only a single day.

One of the major differences between the Athenian system of juries and the modern American judicial system is in the size of the actual jury. The Athenian jury structure is made up of a very large number of jurors. For example, during Socrates trial there were about 500 jurors present. On the other hand, in the modern American judicial system, the jury is only composed of twelve jurors. Another difference in the structure of the two systems is in how the jurors reach a final verdict. In the Athenian system, only a simple majority is needed for a final acquittal or guilty verdict.

Additionally, the same movement (on a much smaller scale) was starting to be found nationwide in Florida, Washington, California, New York and also worldwide in countries such as Mexico, Brazil, Greece, and England.

And I say the girls dead and we helped to kill her and that s what matters indicates that he is tremendously stressed out, but feels irritated at the same time because his parents pretend as if nothing had happened as soon as they suspect about the existence of the inspector. At this part, strong, restrained atmosphere does not alleviate; instead, the tension increases greatly after Eric reproaches Mr. Berling in an acerbic tone. Additionally, Eric s presence is somehow important for various reasons. For instance, the element, humor, which Eric contains, creates a small gap to break down the depressing mood of the play. Eric makes fun of Sheila and acts mischievously. Audience are able to know this by the quote, She s got a nasty temper, but she s not bad really. Good old Sheila .

  • 27. Italy Adopted A Realist Strategy It is based on a view of the individual as primarily fearful, selfish and power seeking. Individuals organize in states, each of which acts in pursuit of its own national interest (Mingst and Arreguin Toft, 2014: 79) In light of this definition, it is possible to state that Italy adopted a realist strategy in non acting against Libya. In the lack of reaction and in not taking a strong line of action towards the African country, the aim of the Italian policy makers was to preserve the country s own interests. Policy makers emphasized the abstention from opening fire on Libyan forces as part of Rome s strategy of smoothing its role in the Libyan intervention. Although Italy was involved in the U.S. European intervention in Libya, they did not actually attack the troops of their close ally, Moammar Gaddafi. Rome s continuous insistence on highlighting that it was both part of the intervention but had abstained from playing an aggressive role against Gaddafi was a strategy to allow Italy to continue to balance the rebels in the east with the relationship with Gaddafi in the west of Libya. Italy had too many interests in Libya to pick one side and react consequently. As previously stated, Italy s business, energy and national security interests would be directly impacted by the happenings in Libya. Italy had investments worth an estimated 11 billion American Dollars in Libya (Lombard, 2012: 37 39). While it had assets in eastern Libya, the majority of them were in the west

From beginning to end, any mention of the Natives by the French was usually linked to the word savages. This was shown in several scenes in the film. Towards the beginning, before Father Laforgue and Daniel leave on the Hurons mission, two men are talking to one another about how they would not go on such a mission with savages. Another example of this reference is near the end of the film when Father Laforgue finds Father Jerome in the Huron village and even Father Jerome refers to the ailing Natives as savages when speaking about them. Father Laforgue s mission in the film clearly represents the French s view that Natives were in need of salvation. Father Laforgue s main goal throughout the film was to convert or save the Natives (the Algonquins and Hurons) and have them believe in Christianity. A great example of this is during the scene of Chomina s death. Even as he is dying, Father Laforgue begs him to allow himself to be baptized and saved in order to attain Christian paradise. Chomina s response to this no, because he says his family will not be there. Father Laforgue does eventually achieve his mission to convert the Natives to Christianity in the Huron village at the end of the film, but he does so with a different mindset after all he had been through with Daniel and the
  • 29. Speech Learning Mechanism SLM (Flege, 1995, 2003) is based on the assumption that the speech learning mechanism remains intact across the life span. It predicts that adults retain the ability to acquire new phonetic categories in their L2, contrary to the notion of a critical period (Lenneberg, 1967; Penfield Roberts, 1959). However, the acquisition of L2 speech sounds depends on the perceived cross language phonetic distance and the state of development of the L1; thus, in this view, the L1 acts as a template or filter at the early stages of L2 acquisition. A crucial assumption of SLM is that L1 and L2 phonetic subsystems are not fully separated and that L2 speech sounds may be judged to be instances of L1 speech sound categories. SLM attempts to explain how speech perceptionaffects L2 phonological acquisition by distinguishing two kinds of sounds: new and similar. New sounds are those that are not identified with any L1 sound, while similar sounds are those perceived to be the same as certain L1 sounds. In this view, a process of equivalence classification hinders or prevents the establishment of new phonetic categories for similar sounds. The L1 system becomes attuned to just those contrasts of the language that are meaningful in the L1, so the system becomes resistant to the addition of new categories. L1 and L2 sounds are posited to exist in a shared system. Therefore, SLM predicts that when a new phonetic category is established for an L2 sound that is close to an L1 sound,

However, there were times when both the Iraqis and even some soldiers needed help, but got no aid. As a result, the remaining soldiers feel guilt, as if they have let down people who count on them.

  • 32. The World Of The Soviet Union Space Race What would the History of the world have be if the United States never landed on the moon, but instead the Soviet Union was successful at sending cosmonauts to the moon and were the first humans to ever step foot on a celestial body? This is what I wanted to explore in my research, this is all subjective we cannot go back in time to see what the outcome would have been if it never happened the way it did. The idea has been talked about even with the sceptics who think the whole moon landing in 1969 was a hoax to give the United States the title and make the Soviets stop pursuing the moon landing. In this paper I want to give a little history of actual events and then examine ideas of alternative events. Towards the end of 1957 the Soviet Union Launched the first man made satellite in space called Sputnik I on October 4th and that event changed history forever (History.com, 2010). Sputnik wasn t much as far as what we know as satellites today it was just a sphere that sent radio signals back to earth while it orbited the earth in low orbit for 3 months. The population of the United States now feared how much more technology advanced the soviets were compared to the Americans who at the time only thought about putting satellites in space for surveillance of foreign countries especially the soviets. One month later the Soviets successfully launched Sputnik II which this time carried the first dog into space named Laika which orbited for a week before returning to

Priestley uses several different dramatic techniques to voice his concerns, ideas and political message about socialism to the members of the audience. He uses characters, lighting, sounds, props, dramatic irony and juxtaposition to convey his ideas and the techniques used also create and maintain suspense which cause the audience to become more interested and involved in the play.

The lighting also reflects Priestley s stage direction and persona of the Inspector, disconcerting habit of looking hard at the person he addresses before actually speaking . This shows not only does the light expose them but so does the Inspector and so he must know more than they think he does as he is hard and bright, just like the light in his presence. Priestley uses the Inspector as a mouth piece to convey his messages but he also uses the doorbell too at the start of the scene. The use of the sharp doorbell ring is an example of a dramatic device as it builds tension, because it interrupts Mr Birling s pompous speech and so it is almost as if Priestley is speaking through the doorbell. It is also quite witty that only a doorbell can shut Mr Birling up and so the person who rang it must be a more important and powerful figure and so what this person might have to say is important and not only do the Birlings have to listen but every egotistical person of the time and the audience too. However just before the bell rings Mr Birling is talking about how community is utter nonsense and how a man has to mind his own business and look after himself and his own... . This is the main point Priestley is trying to fight against as this was the common thought and opinion on the class of 1912 and so he cuts Birling off at this moment to show

And, if Dobbs Wholesale Antiques usually ships approximately one week after receiving the order, they should continue to do this no matter what the profits look like for the period. I worked for a corporation that would do this on a monthly basis depending on their numbers because they didn t want to report to much of a profit for the month and, of course, did not want their numbers to be short. If Dobbs Wholesale Antiques wants to boost their profits, they can ship earlier than usual and likely not attract any attention by doing so. But, I believe that if you do not stick to a normal schedule for shipping,

[interprets] the scarlet A by its original signification. (Hawthorne 323)This quote is evidently significant since it shows the fact that as the chapter suggests the general people s new viewpoint which they are starting to see of Hester; of her diligence which proves to be much more than enough to be recognized. Now, the scarlet letter which she wears is still why people shun her, however, they are now doing this from a habit that has been cultivated throughout the years rather than for her sin. It is remarkable that persons who speculate... the external regulations of society. (331)This shows that the people who are the most hushed and restrained outwardly, many of the time make up for this as they tend to judge others in their minds. This tendency which is there still today is also seen in this book, even though its quiet surprising since in the beginning of the book the Puritans were displayed to judge out loud instead. Chapter 14 A mortal man, with once a human heart, has become a fiend for his special torment.

Sir Walter Raleigh asked for Queen Elizabeth s permission to begin exploration and she agreed to let him organize the expedition. However, he was not allowed to be physically involved in the actual voyages because she believed he was a valuable asset to her and did not want him travelling far away. The first expedition, in 1584, was an exploratory venture. Sir Walter Raleigharranged for two ships to begin the exploration. The two captains of the ships were Arthur Barlowe and Philip Amadas. They discovered fertile land with plenty of game. The area, near the Pamlico and Currituck, would be a great place to begin settlement.

It has since been named the Lane Settlement , after the veteran Ralph who helped command the voyage and was later named governor of the settlement. During his time in the New World , Lane directed parties to the North and West, to find more information about potential places for settlement. Natives told tales of potential Gold mines and calmer waters for better ship harbors. Hostility and violences between Lane s men and their primary food and supply source, the Secotan tribe, forced the settlers to return to England. Fortunately, they returned with detailed accounts of their experiences. Two major contributors of this information were Thomas Harriot and John White. Harriot returned with descriptions of local plants, animals, and people while White had drawn drawn useful maps along with watercolors of landscapes and natives he had seen during his time spent at the Lane

Theories Of General Strain Theory Strain and Deviance: An Empirical Research of General Strain Theory in a Philippine Public University LITERATURE REVIEW Theoretical background During the past decades, various Criminologists developed different theories in an attempt to explain the causes of crime within the society. In return, they were successful, which are adopted and accepted today. Indeed, all of the theories explain the root causes of crime. One of these theories is anomie or strain theory, which attempts to explain why the majority of the people who commits crime belong to the lower class. It argues that the frustration of the people who belong to the lower class causes crime towards the higher class (Merton, 1938).

GST defines strains as negative life events and conditions, which are commonly disliked by the people who experienced it or the negative experiences of a person in a given group (Agnew, 1992; 2001; 2006). Strain is often classified into two distinct types: the objective strain and the subjective strain . The objective strain refers to those negative life events and conditions experienced by an individual that are rejected by most members of people in a given group (Agnew, 2001). Usually, these individuals could not achieve their goals or they lack the means of achieving them. They usually suffer from poverty (e.g., lack of adequate food and shelter), unemployment (e.g. unable to find a good work), and discrimination regardless of gender, race or ethnicity. On the other hand, subjective strain refers to those negative life events experienced by individuals or experiences rejected by them (Agnew, 2001; 2006). Some of these events are parental divorce, failure at school, death of loved ones or family members, death of a close friend,

He knows that killing an animal is against his moral values, but his role in the army is more important to him. He feels that he has to show his nerve and ability as an officer (66). Robert finally shoots the horse behind its ear and kills it. This is the first time he intentionally kills a living creature in the story.
