Examples Of Essays About Yourself
Writing an essay about yourself can be a challenging task, as it requires a delicate balance
between self-expression and humility. It's a fine line to walk – one must convey personal
experiences and qualities without coming across as overly boastful or self-deprecating. Selecting
the right examples to showcase your character and achievements is crucial, and there's always the
risk of either underselling or overselling oneself.
The difficulty lies not only in the writing process but also in the introspection it demands.
Crafting an essay about yourself necessitates a deep dive into your own life, identifying
meaningful experiences and qualities that define you. It's akin to navigating a maze of memories
and emotions, trying to paint an authentic picture without oversharing or leaving crucial aspects
unexplored.
Moreover, the challenge extends to finding the right balance between humility and confidence.
Striking this equilibrium is essential to connect with the reader effectively. Too much self-praise
might be off-putting, while excessive modesty could undermine the purpose of the essay – to
highlight your unique qualities.
Additionally, the challenge is compounded by the need to tailor the essay to its purpose.
Whether it's for a college application, a job interview, or a personal statement, the tone and
content must align with the expectations of the audience. This requires a keen understanding of
the specific requirements and a skillful adaptation of one's narrative.
In conclusion, writing an essay about yourself is no easy feat. It demands introspection, careful
selection of experiences, and a nuanced understanding of how to present oneself. It's a process
that requires time, self-awareness, and a keen eye for effective communication. However, with
the right approach, it can be a rewarding exercise in self-discovery and expression.
For those finding this task overwhelming, it's worth noting that assistance is available. Similar

guide you through the process, helping you present the best version of yourself in your essay.

Nafta Case Study
The world has changed dramatically in the last twenty or so years with the advent of
the internet. One of the greatest changes to the world was e commerce. One of the
largest companies that came about because of this change is Amazon. Amazon is one
of the largest online e commerce stores that sells almost everything. This case study
will examine Amazon, international trade, and Canada.
To regulate international trade, governments put into place different forms of
regulation. Some of this regulation protects domestic companies while others
promote trade. Currently, the United States of America, Mexico, and Canada have a
free trade agreement to promote trade between the three countries. This agreement is
called the North American Free Trade... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
It is estimated that the Canadians will purchase around $50 billion annually by the
year 2019.
Canada s currency is called the Canadian Dollar, or CAD for short. According to
Bloomberg.com, the current ratio between USD and the CAD is $1.2621 to $1
USD. The Canadian Dollar has displayed a trend over the past year of its value
dropping. This drop in value on the global exchange will affect prices in Canada.
As the CAD value drops, its exports will be cheaper for other nations while imports,
like products from Amazon, will be more expensive for the Canadian people. The
dropping value of CAD will continue to change prices and might cause products
imported into Canada by Amazon to be priced out of the market.
A helpful tool to consider when discussing the possibilities of a culture for a particular
company is the Hofstede s Cultural Dimension. Hofstede s Cultural Dimension
studies different aspects of a nation s culture in comparison to other cultures around

cultures react to different scenarios. The Hofstede s Cultural Dimension is
subdivided into six specific categories. These categories, also called indexes include
the following: Power Distance (PDI), Individualism versus Collectivism (IDV),
Masculinity versus Femininity (MAS), Uncertainty avoidance index (UAI), Long

Mao Zedong Of The World Essay
Though Mao Zedong would argue the people wield the power to change history, they
do not. Perhaps they should, but that concerns epistemological questions. And while
elements of Mao s perspective that the people comprise the motive force in the
making of world history wafted around in compelling the U.S. to intervene in Iraqin
2003, it is not a sufficient explanation. The people did not form the chief reason for
the Iraqi campaign, and certainly did not originate the intervention alone , as Mao s
philosophy would suggest. Alternatively, Scottish philosopher Thomas Carlyle
contends, The history of the world is but the biography of great men. He rightly
locates the locus of watershed moments in history: great men. At the very least, a
few powerful men ultimately control the people s destiny both near to and far from
home. In reality, a small, elite group of individuals set the agenda for world order. As
evidenced by the 2003 Iraq War, a tight circle of plutocrats the president, his advisors,
and those with skin in the financial game can steer the course for two entire nations
for a decade.
The Bush Doctrine vastly expanded what the United States deems a vital interest
dragging preГ«mptive action, unilateralism, and anti terrorism under its umbrella.
Democratizing nations plays a critical role in the strategy as well. A spirit of
liberalism flows through the Doctrine, as it attempts to depose tyrannical dictators to
ease relations between nations and foster democracy. It
The Basic Understanding Of Knowledge
Everything in the world needs structure, even concepts. Logic is the structure of the
relationship between concepts, in other words, logic is the study of thinking itself.
Concepts can be organized by mutual exclusion, overlap, inclusion, and mutual
coincidence. Also, there are two types of reasoning (logic), deductive and inductive.
In philosophy, knowledge can be described as justified true belief. Logic, or reasoning
, is used to justify beliefs to determine whether they are true or not. Hence,
knowledge is dependent upon logic because logic is needed to justify the true belief.
Experience along with logic and reasoning helps to derive knowledge.
First, there must be a basic understanding of knowledge. Epistemology is the theory of

Logicians are interested in how to form rules to figure out if a particular type of
reasoning is logical, whereas psychologist are concerned with the mental process of
thinking. Reasoning is used as evidence to come up with a conclusion and thus,
justify a belief.
Furthermore, logic can be split up into two parties, inductive reasoning and
deductive reasoning. Inductive reasoning is a theory concerned with the
relationship between evidence and a conclusion that is drawn from that evidence.
This type of reasoning goes from the particular to the general. In addition,
inductive reasoning deals with inferences that are probable, not valid. This form of
logic is usually used in science and is often used interchangeably with the process,
scientific method. Inductive reasoning usually bases its conclusions on prior
patterns that have occurred. For example, if a person were to state the following:
All so far observed, water boils at a 212 degrees Fahrenheit, this is water, therefore
it will boil at 212 degrees Fahrenheit. The particular portion of this statement would
be water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit. This is based on the previous patterns of
water boiling at 212 degrees Fahrenheit. Thus, if said liquid is water then one can
conclude that water will boil at 212 degrees Fahrenheit with disregard to location.
On the other hand, deductive reasoning deals with valid inferences. This branch of
logic goes from the general to the

When the first power point hit in the movie, it was when Warner feels he s better
than Elle, because he goes to Harvard and that s somewhere that Elle may not get
accepted because she wasn t as start as him. Power point (2) was when Warner and
Vivian became in engage, she felt she was on top of the winner circle for being
engage to Warner. Another great part of the movie I find very powerful, was when
Elle became the attorney for Brooke Windham, which was on trial for the murder
of her husband. In the beginning Elle feels very afraid, but she gain her confidence
and won the case. With this big win not only did Elle gain confidence, she also
receive power, which was the two main things she was lacking when she first enter
into law school.
Main conflicts took place within the entire movie. Many were big and some were
small. The first of many conflict was when Elle and Vivian first met. Next was
when Elle s teacher tried to make moves on her. But the one I feel was the biggest
of all conflicts was the on Elle was battling within herself. In her eyes she wanted
to provide to everyone that she could make it into Harvard Law School, but in
order to do this she had to stop doubting herself first. Therefore, when Elle met this
guy name Emmett, he help Elle to gain some self esteem for herself. With his help,

Brooke which was charged with murder. With her new found self esteem, this made
The Shale Is A Rock
Locality 1
I have I determined specimen A as a black Shale. I have found out that the shale is a
sedimentary rock. The rock is dark/black coloured from the picture, therefore
suggests that it has high organic matter. From research I have concluded that shale is
commonly marine as it is usually found in rivers, lakes and the sea floor and this will
suggest to me that the shale is from a low energy environment. The rock is hard but it
is quite brittle. I have established that all the grain sizes are less than 0.5mm which
tells me they are fine grained when looking at the Wentworth s scale.
I have concluded that the fossil in the shale is called a didymograptus. The picture

I have managed to calculate the density of the galena. I did this by weighing it to
find the mass which was 92.6g then I found out how much water the galena
displaces to find out the volume which was 11cm^3. And when I put it into the
fomula by using the mass and the volume I was able to work out the density: 92.6/11
= 8.4g/cm^3. I have researched and found that the galena was probably formed inside
a hydrothermal vein by precipitation.
Locality 3
In locality 3, the picture clearly shows me that it is red sandstone and also a coarse
sandstone syncline and I have concluded it to being quite open. I have also noticed
that the syncline is symmetrical as I can use the axial plane in order to see this. The
picture presents just a trough. The trough shape therefore tells us that the younger
rocks are on the inside. There is a visible unconformity shown on the image located
slightly above the syncline and this unconformity would have been younger.
I have calculated that the limb lengths are nearly the same in length as I have
calculated the average limb length of the syncline from using the image to be
5.52cm and if I use the scale I found out that that is 22.08m. The average plane dip
plane dip was 19.4 degrees which is a little different to the other side which tells me
that there was a slight difference in tension from each of the

The direction of this signal is ambiguous.
It may be that the company perceives no profitable use for internally generated funds
because of a lack of growth opportunities.
On the other hand, especially when a company offers to buy its shares at a substantial
premium above the market price, management may believe that their company is
undervalued.
The tender offer then represents an attempt to pass on the value of this inside
information to the current shareholders.

Analysis Of A Girl By Gardiner Harris Rape Of Girl
Everywhere around the world women and girls are terrorized, mistreated and
victims of abuse, rape, and assault. Sadly this kind of treatment towards women
and girls is often very common in Asian countries. The article by Gardiner Harris
entitled, Rape of Girl, 5, Draws Focus to Child Assault in India , talks about how
an innocent five year old girl was raped, tortured and almost killed in India. Harris
wrote in the article that people demand stricter laws against sex crimes and that
there should be more protection for women. In Asia women tend to be less
desirable, and are treated with less respect than a man. Harris also claims that news

want women to be educated, they want us to be stupid things (Dexter Filkins,

Assault in India , because both articles talk about how girls and women in some
Asian countries are thought to be inferior to men, and can be terrorized or abused
into doing what others want. This article is very deviant, because a hate crime such
as throwing acid on someone is never okay. It is deviant to use violence to get what
you want. A man throwing acid on a girl to keep her from going school and being
educated is very deviant. The Gender Conflict Theory applies to this article as well,

The Perception Of Mortality In Albert Camus s The
Stranger
Mortality is a concept that can shadow a person s philosophy on life, and heavily
influences the behaviors and motivations of literary characters. Human beings
question mortality and what it means in alignment to the purpose and significance of
living. Many of the character in the catalog of our reading this semester have self
made philosophies on mortality that manifest in the thought processes of characters
and direction their stories and lives take. The way that characters comprehend
mortality proves itself to be a major influence on the behaviors and motivations that
are integral to these novels. You see mortality through the lens of chance,
existentialism, religion, violence, even as the catalyst for appreciating life. The
interpretations of mortality are often shaped by the experiences we go through, and
this holds true in complicated, simple, and unique texts. In Albert Camus The
Stranger, Meursault believes that life is meaningless in the face of death; it Is
assured that every human will die, so the choices we make in this lifetime have little
relevance or meaning. This theory that one life was as good as another (Camus, 22)
governs much of this novel. The first lines introduce the passing of Meursault s
mother, immediately informing the reader of the apathy he shows where most people
would react with grief and reflect on the sadness of the situation, Meursault reacts
indifferently with That doesn t mean anything (Camus, 1). This is not a direct

Nepenthes Rajah Case Study
Background
Nepenthes rajah is a type of carnivorous pitcher plant found predominantly in the hot
and nutrient deficient soils of the Southeast Asian tropics. Since the soil is nutrient
deficient, N. rajah captures arthropods that falls into its jug shaped leaf organ as a
source of N and P to grow; similarly to other pitcher plants. However, unlike other
pitcher plants, N. rajah also strangely interacts mutually with two small mountain
mammals: Tupaia Montana and Rattus baluensis. This is different from other
Nepenthes species as they only interact with T. montana. These two mammals feed on
the sweet nectar that N. rajah produces and in return, persistently defecates inside the
pitcher. N. rajah benefits because it consumes the nutrient rich fecal matter for an
additional source of N. This unique mutualistic relationship between a carnivorous
plant and multiple small mammals was investigated Greenwood et al (2011). The
study invested the strength of mutualism between N. rajah and the two mammals via
scat deposition rates. Alongside with that, the visiting behavior of the two mammals
and N. rajah was documented to show possible competition or avoidance between the
mammals, and the similarities and differences between said two mammals. ... Show

rajah and the two mammals in terms of scat deposition rates. Both mammals had a
similar frequency of scat deposits despite the higher visitation rate of T. montana
compared to R. baluensis. The researchers concluded this was due to R. baluensis
having a higher degree of accuracy in depositing the scat inside in pitcher, whereas
T. montana had a significantly lower accuracy rate and defecated outside the pitcher.
Regardless of the lower accuracy in T. montana, N. rajah still receives a total N level
from feces that may range higher than 57% results found in a study containing a
Nepenthes species and T. montana, because N. rajah is involved with two
Otc Hearing Aid Effectiveness
In the United States, only 25% of the people who need hearing aids use them. One
possible reason for this is accessibility. Getting a hearing aid requires a trip to see a
specialist. Both the visit and the hearing aids themselves can be expensive if not
covered by health insurance. One possible way of getting more hearing aids to the
people who need them is to sell them over the counter (OTC). To see if this option is
feasible, Indiana University Bloomington tested the theory through a study of OTC
hearing aid effectiveness.
The Study
To conduct the study, researchers gathered 154 people with mild to moderate
hearing loss between the ages of 55 and 79. These participants were split into three
groups. One group worked with an audiologist to have their hearing aid properly
fitted and programmed. Members of another group were given hearing aids that had
been pre programmed in the same way that OTC devices would be. The final group
served as a control group and were given non functioning hearing aids. All three
groups tested their hearing aids for six weeks.

who were given placebo units. While both of the test groups with functional hearing

Significances Of Total Solar Eclipses
A Total Solar Eclipse occurs when the visible portion of our Moon covers the visible
portion of our sun, causing it to seem like a white ring with a black center, causing
an extremely unique view of our sun and Moon. The Total Solar Eclipse can only be
seen from a few points in the world, in the umbral shadow. Most people in the world
will only see a partial Solar Eclipse, where the Moonwill only cover a portion of the
sun, due to the fact that they re in the penumbral. While not as unique, it s still a
rare sight to behold. The reason Solar Eclipses are so rare to begin with is due to
the special coincidence of the Moon and sun being the same size to our eyes. While
our sun is 400 times the size of our Moon, our sun is also 400 times farther away,
causing them to appear the same size in our sky.
As previously stated, you can only see a Total Solar Eclipse from an umbral shadow,
which is the darkest part of the shadow cast on the Earth. This only happens when the
Moon Totally covers the sun, but this is not the only factor. The Moon also has to
be close to, or at the point of perigee, the point of the Moon s orbit closest to Earth.
The penumbral shadow is only visible when the Moon only partly obscures the Sun
s disk, causing a partial Solar Eclipse, but there are still more. There s the Annular
Solar Eclipse, which is similar to a Total Solar Eclipse, but the Moon is too small
to completely cover the sun, and the Sun s outer edges remain visible to form a
ring of fire in the sky. This can only happen when the Moon is near to, or at the
point of apogee, the point of the Moon s orbit farthest from Earth, and can only be
seen from the Moon s antumbra. The last type of eclipse, Hybrid Solar Eclipses,
also known as annular Total eclipses, are the rarest type. This only occurs when a
Solar Eclipse changes between a Total Solar Eclipse and an Annular Solar Eclipse
along it s path.
According to the article What Are Solar Eclipses? on the website timeanddate.com
/eclipse/solar eclipse.html For a solar eclipse to take place, the Sun, the Moon, and
Earth must be aligned in a perfect or near perfect straight line an alignment
astronomers call syzygy. This happens around New Moon every lunar month. There

This occurs when a product is generated in the excited state and then relaxes to the
ground state in which a photon is emitted. When the electron relaxes, energy is
released as a vibration and heat. Electrons in the same orbital are paired and must
have opposite spins. There are two types of electronic states: singlet and triplet. In
a singlet state, the spins of all of the electrons are paired while in a triplet state, the
spins are flipped or unpaired. Phosphorescence and fluorescence occurs when
electrons relax from the singlet and triplet states and emit visible light.
Fluorescence emits light at a longer wavelength than it is absorbed. This process is
rather fast as the light appears to be a blue green color. Phosphorescence is very
similar to that of fluorescence. However, in phosphorescence there is longer
interval between the excited and ground states since the flipped spin has to flip
back. This flipping of spins requires energy which leads to a less energetic triplet
state compared to that of the singlet state. The longer interval in phosphorescence
also sometimes results in a red color and a longer excited state period.
Chemiluminescence also has other usages such as its ability to identify when blood
is present. The luminol turns blue green when the alkaline solution is exposed to

who are very different yet have many similarities. Claudio on the one hand was as
one would say the romantic but Benedick on the other hand was an arrogant ladies
man. During the beginning of Act 1 Claudio is introduced to Hero the daughter of
Signior Leonato and is immediately interested in her stating that quote, she is the
sweetest lady that ever I looked on. Though interested in her, Claudio wanted
Benedick s approval. When hearing that Claudio was attracted to Hero Benedick
immediately was in disapproval of the thought, for in his eyes she was quote too
low for high praise, too brown for fair praise, and too little for great praise. Though
disappointed of Benedick s disapproval, Claudio chose to still peruse Hero. Later
on Claudio and Hero get engaged but when Don John an evil man here s about the
engagement he devises a plan to deceived Claudio and destroy the marriage. When
Don John s plan is put into action Claudio falls right into the trap and believes that
Hero is cheating on him. Though Claudio is furious he does not confront Hero with
his problem but rather holds on to the information until the wedding. The wedding
day arrives, and everything is in place. Once Hero has come down the aisle Claudio
then starts accusing her of cheating on him. Instead of confronting Hero alone to talk
about what he saw, Claudio choose to humiliate her in front of her family and friends.

Henry Viii Wholly Surrendered Power
Do you agree with the view that in the years 1515 1525 Henry VIII wholly
surrendered power in government to Cardinal Wolsey?
To a certain extent within 
Source 4 (by J.J. Scarisbrick 1968) supports the idea
that possibly Henry VIII actually did surrender power over to Wolsey. The evidence
within the source that suggests this possibly for being the truth is a self indulgent
King had wholly surrendered the cares of the state into the Cardinals hands . To
further support this case, it is clear that Wolsey was extremely powerful, he had vast
amounts of bishoprics (Archbishop of Canterbury, Tournai, Durham just to name a
few) and was the head of things such as the Star Chamber where Wolsey got himself
heavily involved with. This is shown ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
However, Source 5 written in 1994 by John Lotherington, appears to disagree with
that of the view of source 4. In parts it appears to actually agree with source 4,
Wolsey held a dominant position in governmentand controlled the distribution of
patronage but then the source continues to say, And of course the ultimate source
of all power was the King . This quote can be proven true with examples of Henry
preventing Wolsey from doing something, such as in 1523 when Wolsey launched
a sea attack upon the French without the kings permission, this led to Wolsey
having to apologize for his actions. This shows that Henry still had control over
Wolsey and that he couldn t get away with something so easily. Also even though
source 4 claims that Wolsey had very strong control, that even with this power he
couldn t prevent such things like The Amicable Grant of 1525 from being a
disaster, and without aids from The Dukes of Norfolk and Suffolk it could have
been an even more disastrous, this proves Henry was more in control than Wolsey
because the Dukes only subdued the rebellions on Henry s behalf, not Wolsey s.
This is showing how Henry had not wholly surrendered his government power, and
could still contest Wolsey s decisions and problems. The source was also written in
1994, therefore the historians view is likely to be more factual rather than written in
the period and being more biased, as can be the case, especially if that figure in
Extended Definition Of Love
Love can be very hurtful, painful, and stressful sometimes and some people really
need to know how to handle love. From my opinion love means to have the most
positive feelings for someone. Having feelings for someone is a good thing. People
do not understand the full meaning of love. The full meaning of loveis giving your all
and putting trust in someone that really love certain people. Some synonyms for love
are fondness, tenderness, warmth, intimacy.
The first synonym is fondness. Fondness means caring or having the feeling for
someone who are really attached to somebody. For example some people have a
fondness for their family. Another example is people have a fondness with their
dog. So mainly this word can be defined in so many ways. People also use this word
only if they are attached to someone like their best friend or spouse. From ... Show

Tenderness means being nice to people and having a good heart for people when
they are going through something. For example there was a tenderness in the way
she looked at him that had amazed him. This word can be used in many different
ways. The tenderness comes from your heart which can always show how the way
you look at somebody. People has different opinions on how they use the word
tenderness. There are many different signs for tenderness as well but people just use
them in a different way.
The third synonym is warmth. Warmth means to be safe around somebody that
you trust or feel comfortable with being around. Some people say they have the
warmth with being around certain people. For example she spoke her mind with
great warmth. People use warmth in many different ways. Some people say that
they have warmth with their blankets. From my opinion what this word means to
me is being touch by somebody like you can feel their heart. Being able to feel their
heart is a good feeling to have. Warmth is a strong word to use for a relationship or

The Middle Pecos Groundwater Conservation District

50 minutes agoDetails
The Middle Pecos Groundwater Conservation District will set a hearing for the
company seeking a new water supply for Odessa as soon as this month, while a
public battle over the proposal continues.
Winning the hearing doesn t mean Republic Water Company of Texaswill win
approval to export the water. Board members, for example, could dismiss the
application as another version of a request the board already denied, prompting
another lawsuit. But City of Odessa and company officials say they view it as a step
closer to winning an export permit for what they describe as a long term and higher
quality water supply even if it might end up costing more.
The district will have to hold the hearing by the end of the year after determining the
application complete.
Meanwhile, company officials say they still plan to request a hearing before an
administrative law judge instead of the district board. The judge s decision would be
non binding but could be used in a lawsuit if the board acted against his or her
findings.
It s always been our intention because of the emotional nature of this topic in that
county that everyone would be better served if you take it out of the hands of this
district and have a (State Office of Administrative Hearings) judge view it without
this lens, said Jimmy Perkins, a principal with Republic Water Company.

Laboratory Test: There are several blood tests that can diagnosis Rheumatoid arthritis
but the most common ones are: Rheumatoid factor (RF): Rheumatoid factor is an
antibody that is present eventually in the blood of most people with rheumatoid
arthritis (3). Not all people with rheumatoid arthritis test positive for rheumatoid
factor, and some people test positive for rheumatoid factor, yet never develop the
disease(3). Rheumatoid factor also can be positive in some other diseases; however,
a positive RF in a person who has symptoms consistent with those of rheumatoid
arthritis can be useful in confirming a diagnosis. Furthermore, high levels of
rheumatoid factor are associated with more severe rheumatoid arthritis (3). Anti CCP
antibodies: This blood test detects antibodies to cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti

be positive years before rheumatoid arthritis symptoms develop (4). When used with
the RF, this test s results are very useful in confirming a rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis

Self Analysis Of Mirror By Sylvia Plath
Introduction The lyric poem Mirror was written in 1961 by the late Sylvia Plath.
This poem was not published until 1971; ten years after it was written. Mirror was
written two years before Plath separated from her husband and shortly after
committing suicide. Mirror speaks freely about women and their obsession with
appearance and aging. In a way Plath used Mirror, in order to portray what she
herself had been dealing with, in a time where she felt the most vulnerable and
insecure as she was getting older. This was a self reflectionpoem from the voice of a
third party; which in this case would be the mirror itself. The Mirror was the main
character that would see many faces, after reading this poem it would seem as if
Plath was using the mirror to criticize women in general for feeling the way they do
about their appearance, when in fact the second stanza focuses on one particular
woman, which is believed to be Plath criticizing herself for the way she felt about her
appearance and aging. The theme of women and their obsession with appearance and
aging is portrayed through the use of various literary devices and no specific rhyme
scheme, however, metaphors, symbolism, and imagery are prominent throughout the
entire poem.
Review of the Literature There are many interpretations to Plath s famous poem

Mirror was used to help the reader reflect on what they were going through by
accounting the experiences of Plath. With time a woman who was once a young
child started becoming a worn old woman, who was compared to an ugly fish in the
poem. The use of metaphors, symbolism, and imagery brought all those aspects of
what many compare aging and appearance to but this poem did it in such an
imaginative and beautiful way that the reader didn t realize what pained Sylvia Plath
and what ultimately led to her
Listening To Own Personal Stereo Research Paper
The question is should students have the right to listen to their own personal
stereos during class time? In my opinion I think that listening to your own personal
stereo should be a privilege. Like for example if your doing your work and not
getting distracted while listening to your music than you should have no problem.
But if you re dancing around acting like jackwagon not doing what you are suppose
to do than that person does not deserve the right to be listening to his/her own music.
Students should have the right to listen to their own personal stereo. If their doing
their work and not getting distracted while the music is going on. Music does distract
people from doing their work but it only distracts them because they choose to distract
How Does Tim O Brien Use Memory In The Things They
Carried
Tim O Brien grew up in a place where if you were to look in the dictionary for the
word boring you might find it. O Brien was a World War 2 veteran and of an
elementary school teacher where he served as a WAVE. Although he has wrote
many other books, he is primarily known for If I die , Going after Cacciato , and
The Things they carried . The latter book opens with The Things They Carried and
closes with The Lives of the Dead. The Lives of the Dead is a short novel about
young Tim and his older self, Timmy, and his overall experience of coping with
death. The Lives of the Dead shows the concept that the dead lives on by
remembrance and telling stories. The quote above tells how Tim used storytelling to
help him deal with his past and with the present. Throughout his life he used this trait
of storytelling to remember his first love, Linda. Throughout the passage you begin
to wonder why he is so focused on Linda... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
For Tim, in his younger years the concept of memory would be a good thing. He
uses Linda as a symbol for a simpler time and he relates the memory of how she was
to remember her. Although this was good for Timmy, for Tim, having memory of
someone isn t a good thing, and that is a good thing. While serving in the war,
having a memory of someone could be harder to help with the job you re doing.
This is definitely true for the other men who he is in the war with. The men used
this no memory to their advantage and did/said things like Gimmie Five or Pleased
as Punch to cope with their deaths. Even when they did have memories they used
this same technique to cope with their deaths. All the memories they had of Ted
Lavender came rushing back after he was shot in the head and they had to carry him

Angel investors help people in startup new business. Capital come at cost and for
those Angel investors makes arrangement by overcoming these issues. These issues
including ownership, rate of return expected from investment and making
arrangement of the desired amount. This all kinds of needs are difficult for the new
entrepreneur to manage which is then offered by Angel investors. Therefore Angel
investor s helps in defining success for the new entrants by helping them create new
jobs, new market, assisting in establishing comfortable size and scale and inventing
methods for reaching out to a successful business.
Angel investors are different from venture capital and private equity as it ensures seed
level investment from $100K $1 million as against venture capital which offers $3
million and private equate offering $10 million plus as investment. This way Angel
investors act as a starter of equity rising. Also there is no need to leave ownership up
to some level for investment in case of Angel investment. This way they assist the
entrepreneur in starting a new business and making financial arrangements for them
without taking away their partial ownership rights from them. The efforts are made to
assist the business with the financial requirements so that the establishment of the

The Benefits Of Living Wage
INTRODUCTION:
The living wage is based on the amount an individual needs to earn to cover the basic
costs of living.
Living costs changes from place to place in country so there is different living wage
rate for London and rest of the country. Living wage is administered and promoted
by the Living wage foundation. Politicians has given its widespread support but
limited endorsement is been given by employers. The particular amount that must be
earned per hour to meet these needs varies depending on location. In the 1990s the
first living wage campaigns were launched by community initiatives in the US
addressing increasing poverty faced by workers and their families. They argued that
employee, employer, and the community win with a living wage. Employees would
be more willing to work, helping the employer reduce worker turnover, and it would
help the community when the citizens have enough to have a decent life.
Prime Minister David Cameron has said he supports the idea in principle.
Ken Livingstone and Boris Johnson both London s former and current mayor, are
supporters of living wage. The Greater London Authority (GLA) is among the
organisations that pay the living wage to their employees.
No business which depends for existence on paying less than living wages to its
workers has any right to continue in this country.

Recovery Act.

stressors in life. However, take a closer look and we would understand that children
do have their growing pains as well. In this research, children are defined as young
kids below the age of 12. As they grow older, they undergo many changes in their life,
and it is of no surprise that they need to learn to cope from the situation based on
those changes. This study is designed to understand the underlying theories and
factors that could affect the children s development through the environmental

Although conformity and compliance are relatively similar, they too, have
differences. Compliance is a specific response to a specific request, while
conformity generally involves unspoken pressure to behave in a particular manner.
Generally, compliance involves request which could be explicit such as using the
foot in the door technique. Most of the time, in compliance, the child is told to
respond or complete the task told in a desirable manner; while in conformity, a
person is expected to behave in a particular manner (Cialdini and Trost, 1998).
Compliance plays a major role in building and maintaining relationships where
children learn to behave in a certain manner to maintain status quo (Cialdini and
Trost, 1998). When we comply with an instruction, we receive praises, or lavished
with social acceptance and gifts. By doing so, the children feel accepted, wanted
and loved by other peers. In a way, compliance acts as a form of conditioning the
behavior expected from their peers (Cialdini and Trost, 1998).
It is easy to view compliance as a form of concession due to the obligation children
might have towards their peers. Studies have found that with compliance, children
tend to bend towards peer pressure and it has a significant effect towards negative
behavior (Adams et al, 2000; Fanti and Henrich, 2010). This isn t surprising, as

The Space Shuttle Challenger
The significant engineering failure that will be analyze is the Space Shuttle
Challenger. In 1986, the Challenger faced many launch delays. The first delay of the
Challenger was due to the expected weather front and presence of the Vice President
(ENGINEERING.com). Since rain and cold temperatures were expected to move into
the area, they didn t want the Vice President to make unnecessary trips. However, the
launch window became perfect weather conditions since the weather front stalled.
The second delay was due to a defective microswitch in the hatch locking mechanism.
By the time the problem was fixed, the winds became too high and the weather front
had started to move again.
Due to these delays, the night before the launch, there was a teleconference between
engineers and management from Kennedy Space Center, Marshall Space Flight
Center in Alabama, and Morton Thiokol in Utah (ENGINEERING.com). This
teleconference was to investigate whether the challenger was safe to launch with the
predicted temperatures of low 20s. Due to inconclusive data and having no low
temperature data below 53В°F, the managers recommended the launch to continue
and not be delayed. Temperatures dropped to about 8В°F the night before launch. On
January 28, 1986, the space shuttle challenger broke apart after seventy three seconds
from launch (History.com). This catastrophic event killed the entire crew in
Challenger while traumatizing the nation and throwing the NASA s shuttle program
into turmoil.

Once More To The Lake Comparison
Many people, after reading The Death of the Moth by Virginia Woolf or Once
More to the Lake, would get the general idea that both essays are about death.
However, it is apparent to me that both works are really an illustration of the
significance of life, but each essay accomplishes this in a different way. I aim to
show how these two essays are alike by comparing their similar theme of carpe diem
as well as some stylistic choices.
I say carpe diem because, to me, the essays convey the message that we are all
going to die someday so we must make the most of the time we are allotted. The
most evident symbols of this underlying theme are the dying moth in Woolf s essay

B. White, he employs the use of a different tactic to convey a similar message. Like
the moth essay, Once More to the Lake deals with the concepts of life and death, but
it does so in a less direct way. The part of the essay I would like to focus on is
White s realization that time is marching ever forward. This part is not actually a
specific point in the essay but takes place throughout the whole of it much like the
moths slow, yet lively trudge toward death. Gradually, White realizes that he has
morphed into the image of his father that he had as a boy, and that his son will
someday take his place as well, shown by the line, I began to sustain the illusion that
he was I, and therefore, by simple transposition, that I was my father. At the very
end, White says, As he buckled the swollen belt suddenly my groin felt the chill of
death, which is White realizing his own mortality. Although, this is where the essay
ends, I imagine that this realization sparked something within him that drove him to
appreciate his life and live it more fully, enjoying the company of his family and
friends, which is why he went to the lake in the first place. Again, this echoes the

Fur Industry s Effect on Society
The fur trading industry played a major role in the development of the United States
and Canada for more than 300 years. The fur trade began in the 1500 s as an
exchange between Indians and Europeans. The Indians traded furs for such goods
as tools and weapons. Beaver fur, which was used in Europe to make felt hats,
became the most valuable of these furs. The fur trade prospered until the mid 1800,
when fur bearing animals became scarce and silk hats became more popular than felt
hats made with beaver. Traders and trappers explored much of North America in
search of fur. They built trading posts in the wilderness, and settlements grew up
around many of these posts. Some of these settlements later became such major cities
as Detroit, New Orleans, and St. Louis in the United States; and Edmonton, Montreal,
Quebec, and Winnipeg in Canada.
Also as a result of the Fur trade, the beaver population depleted, Indian trappers
became debilitated, tribal cultures buckled under the pressure of new economic
motives, tools and values. Consequently, since production fell within an area, the
traders moved and settlers moved in developing farms and towns. The Indians in that
area were either killed or moved by the government.
Hunting Rifle Scope Research
There are eight parts to a hunting rifle scope; the objective lens, windage bell,
elevation adjustment, windage adjustment, power ring, eyepiece, ocular lens, and
exit pupil. All of these items pretty much speak for themselves, if you don t know
what they are then simply pick of a scope sometime and your sure to figure out pretty
quick which part does what. While they come in a variety of sizes, most huntingrifle
scopes look like a tube with an inch or thirty millimeter diameter.
Do not confuse rifle scopes with gun sights. The difference is that a rifle scope
magnifies the target while a gun sight does not. Different models of scopes are
labeled by their magnification range and diameter. For instance, a 3 8x30 scope can
magnify the target
U.S. Government Need to Give Larger Funding NASA
Have you ever looked up into the night sky and wondered what life outside of Earth
would be like? Many people don t realize the scale of space. You are essentially a
grain of sand on an endless beach. NASA is a space exploration program dedicated to
discovering the beach we live in. However, it costs billions of dollars to explore
space. The United States government must raise the lowered funding of NASA,
allowing the program to perform larger missions at a faster rate. NASA is responsible
for putting a man on the Moon, landing rovers on the surface of Mars, and many
other astounding accomplishments. They perform all of these feats through funding
from the United States government. NASA shouldn t have to deal with budget cuts
because of the work they put in and the information they learn from space.
To begin with, funding for NASA has dramatically been reduced compared to the
1960s during the Space Race (Budget of NASA 1). In 1966, where the funding for
NASA peaked, the United States government gave NASA almost 6 billion dollars
which is about 37 billion dollars today (1). This was equal to about 4.4% of the
United States annual budget (1). The last official record of the NASA budget was
in 2012, a little over 18 billion dollars (1). This still sounds like a lot of money, which
it is, but the cut has reduced the budget by a third of what it used to be (1). NASA
has had to turn towards smaller, single purpose satellites and probes (Butler 59).
This is a good and bad

remotely, productivity can diminish if management is not in place to accommodate

employees working remotely by realizing cost savings of office space and utilities,

talent in a commutable distance is scarce or when life changes alter an employee s
circumstances. However, he said, not every employee is a good candidate for a
remote set up. According to Lewis, employees who should be allowed to work
remotely include those who have jobs where the nature of the work can be
performed without face to face interaction with co workers or clients. Employees
would also have to demonstrate that they are capable of working remotely in terms of

The poem The Charge of the Light Brigade, written by Alfred Tennyson is a

memorialize the bravery of the six hundred men who readily rode into the valley of

itself but, rather the soldiers who were an epitome of obedience and valor in spite of
the blunders made by their superiors.

helplessness, allowing the reader to imagine the utter desperation experienced by
the soldier as he is consumed by smoke. The sheer horror of this image allows the
reader to appreciate the soldier s bravery in such horrible times. It is due to this
valor that the soldiers seem to emerge victorious as suggested by the lines: Reel d
from the sabre stroke/ Shatter d and sunder d. However, the victory is not as
joyous as the reader would like to believe They rode back, but not/ Not the six

Coral Bleaching The Great Barrier Reef
The Great Barrier Reef is Australia s natural gifts. The Great Barrier Reef is the
world s largest coral reef. The Reef is located off the coast of Queensland. It is the
largest living thing on Earth and even visible from outer space. The area is 348,000
kmВІ and considered a one of the world s heritage sites. Thousands of reefs and
hundreds of islands made of over 600 types of hard and soft coral. It s home to
countless species of colourful fish, molluscs and marine animals (starfish, dolphins,

As global warming continues, corals will not be able to keep up with increasing
ocean temperatures. Coral bleaching has led to increase of un healthy reefs. The
raising of sea temperatures slows down coral growth and loss of coral. Coral
bleaching is expected to occur more often and worse in the future, making it
difficult for corals to recover. Some coral types, such as staghorn corals, are really
sensitive to bleaching, and these will be the most affected. Corals that deal with
the sea temperatures better will dominate the Great Barrier Reef. Some reefs rely
on the animals to help control coral bleaching; climate change has effect some
marine animals such as some of the fish of the Great Barrier Reef. The preferred
temperature range leads them to find a new habitat. Climate change will also affect
the population and sea turtle s e habitat. Storms and creatures that eat through
limestone which wear down reefs. The Great Barrier Reef has adapted to cope with
the impacts of cyclones and severe storms. However, many scientists predict that
intense cyclones (such as cyclone Hamish and cyclone Yasi) will occur more often
due to climate change. Reef recovery from severe storms is slow, because fewer
corals survive to help affected
The Wallpaper Of Purple By Steven Spielberg
The Sexist Shade of Purple
If Jaws was the movie that jumpstarted Steven Spielberg s career in the film
industry, then The Color Purple was the movie that was able to distinguish Steven
from any other movie director during the time. All of Spielberg s movies prior to
1985 were generally movies of either action packed adventure or unnerving horror,
but once Steven Spielberg announced that he would be doing a movie based on Alice
Walker s book, The Color of Purple, no one knew what to expect. Jump 31 years later,
Steven Spielberg s The Color of Purple, is still seen as a film masterpiece that deals
with a grotesque yet historical insight of African Americanculture back in the early
1900 s. Through the depiction of visual art form of film, Steven Spielberg was able
to highlight certain aspects of everyday African American life back then such as the
existence of sexism, racism and the importance of familial relationships. However,
Steven Spielberg emphasizes and brings to the spotlight the aspect of sexism of the
historical African American community. With a movie full of uncomfortable and
daunting scenes, Steven Spielberg is able to underline the evil social facet of sexism
faced by African American women in their community in the past. Steven wants his
audience to know that side of African American history and wants us to view African
American women differently because of itIn the very beginning of the movie, we are
shown a brutal scene of the main character, Cecile,
The Dual Legacies Of Discrimination Against Ethnic...
movement. The dual legacies of discrimination against ethnic minorities and the
country s uneven economic development have created strong support in non Persian
areas for political reform. During recent presidential elections, the non Persian
electorate tilted heavily toward the reformist wing. Support for democratic political
change among Irans ethnic minorities is likely to persist so long as the country s
periphery remains an economic backwater. Although the Iranian economy has been
growing, the symptoms of underdevelopment remain acute in Iran s ethnic enclaves.
Discrimination, compounded by poor economic conditions, could motivate ethnic
groups to challenge the Iranian government in the future. A combination of state
sponsored suppression of Azeri sentiment (during the Pahlavi rule) and a massive
integration movement toward the Iranian mainstream (under the Islamic regime) has
prevented the rise of ethnic nationalism in the northwest. As a result, there has been
the crystallization of an overarching sense of Iranian nationalism, which has been
skillfully manipulated and intertwined with allegiance to the tenets of Shi i Islam,
which makes a universal devotion to Iranian national identity possible.
The bloody past with the Arabs, Iran s historic enemy, cemented the feeling of Iranian
Iran Ethnic Conflicts 10 nationalism that was able to overshadow ethnic nationalism
across the nascent Islamic Republic. Iranian ethnic groups united in the face of an

The Art Teacher Entered The Classroom
Frank looked up as the art teacher entered the classroom. What was he doing here?
This was English, not art. Do you have Iero? Mr Way, the art teacher, asked the
English teacher, Mr Brown. Frank s eyes widened, not expecting that. Frank s in
here. Mr Brown said, all heads turning to him. Frank blushed. Mr Way looked at
Frank for a little while and nodded his head to the door. Come with me. Frank
nodded, scrambling to his feet and following the tall teacher. Seriously, Frank was
really short. He looked up at Mr Way, feeling a bit anxious. The thing was, was that
Mr Way fucking scared Frank. He wasn t intimidating in any way, and always
joked around with the kids, but Frank was just terrified at the mere thought of
talking to him. Mr Way s voice snapped Frank back to reality. Do you know what
class Toro and Ballato are in right now? Uh, Ray s in literature, I think? And
Lindsey s in chemistry... Frank said, trailing off. Mr Way nodded, looking at Frank.
Don t be so nervous, now. You re not in trouble. Frank wanted to say, that s not the
reason I m nervous, but decided to instead laugh a bit and nod. Follow me. Mr Way
said, beckoning Frank with his hand. They made it to literature and chemistry,

Alexander The Great Impact On The Biblical Word
The rise of Alexander the Great impact on the biblical word by making the Greek
language universal enabling the gospel to spread to other countries that did not
speak the Hebrew language. God uses the spread of the Greek and language to have
the New Testament translated into Greek so that everybody could read the bible and
not just Jews nor Greeks. (Galatians 3:28).
Alexander The Great is the son of Philip of Macedon. Who then later became the
one in Danial 11:3 A mighty king will arise, and he will rule with great authority
and do as he pleases. Prior to 322 B.C. the Greek state had never achieved a united
government, but it was the genius of Philip who brought into existence a Hellenic
League that was made up of all the Greek states
Aircraft Hydraulic Systems
I. LANDING GEAR SAFETY DEVICES
Most airplanes with a retractable landing gear have a gear warning horn that will
sound when the airplane is configured for landing and the landing gear is not down
and locked. Normally, the horn is linked to the throttle or flap position, and/or the
airspeed indicator so that when the airplane is below a certain airspeed,configuration,
or power setting with the gear retracted, the warning horn will sound. Accidental
retraction of a landing gear may be prevented by such devices as mechanical
downlocks, safety switches, and ground locks. Mechanical downlocks are built in
components of a gear retraction system and are operated automatically by the gear
retraction system. To prevent accidental operation of the... Show more content on

What happens is that atomic hydrogen found in such substances interacts chemically
with the high tensile steel in the gear, causing the affected areas to transform
chemically into a brittle alloy with a risk of fracturing. The only way to counteract
hydrogen embrittlement is to remove the affected component and bake it in a special
oven at 375 F for 23 hours, Lind tells AMT. This allows the hydrogen atoms to
migrate to the surface and then escape.
Maintenance best practices
When damaged aircraft landing gear comes into the shop, it costs more to overhaul
than landing gear that has been maintained properly. Here is what you can do to
keep your landing gear costs down. The first step is lubrication. It may sound
simple, but insufficient lubrication during regular usage causes unnecessary wear
and tear in many of the system s components. Lubrication is critical to the
movement of all articulated parts and joints of landing gear, says Lind. Proper
lubrication ensures smooth functioning, less friction and wear, and the appropriate
transfer of forces throughout the gear during use. Lubrication is key to keeping out
water, de icing fluid, and other corrosion causing substances. Make no mistake;
corrosion is a real problem for landing gear. Before you lubricate, be sure to check
the aircraft s manual to find out what substances you can and cannot use. In some
cases, using the
Advances in Liver Transplants
Advances in surgery and immunosuppressive therapy have improved clinical
outcomes and opportunities for liver transplantation among those previously
excluded (e.g., older adults) (1). During the liver allocation system prior to 2002, liver
transplant recipients 60 years old were reported to have promising graft and patient
survival rates similar to younger cohorts (1 12).Other published reports have cited
significant mortality and complications among older recipients (13 18), though
important clinical outcomes like functional status have been infrequently studied. (7,
13).
In 2002, the Model for End Stage Liver Disease (MELD) system for liver allocation
was implemented and it resulted in lower waiting list death rates among recipients
without changing 1 year graft and patient survival (19, 20), including those 65 years
(21) in comparison to the pre MELD era. However, functional status and long term
clinical outcomes among older liver transplant recipients in the MELD era are unclear.
Based on the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR), the number of
waitlisted older adults ( 65 years) for liver transplantation has significantly
increased in the past decade from 9.9% (1,637) in 2001 to 16% (2,460) in 2011 (22).
The demand for liver transplantation is expected to increase with high rates of
Hepatitis C infection among individuals born between 1945 1965 who are at risk for

Essay On Scavenger
At the start of this book, it has been twenty years since the world fell apart . For
one of the two main characters, Peyton, the time Before is something she has never
experienced only learned about from stories. Freshly eighteen, she becomes the
leader of The Mill, her home. The Mill is home to a group called the Settlers, which
Peyton s father was in charge of before his death.
The other main character is Nixie, a tiny female who belongs to the group called
The Scavengers. The Scavenger, unlike the Settlers, move from place to place and
are not afraid to do whatever it takes to get the supplies they need to survive: lie,
steal, kill. Everything is fair game. Nixie has a special gift, though, which makes her
invaluable to her people. She is a dowser, someone who can sense and find water

In all honesty, I don t know which emotion takes precedence. I have a certain soft
spot for Dystopian novels, and on that factor this book did not disappoint but there
were also some big issues I had with the plot. Usually, I wouldn t mind if there was
no explanation as to why the world has become such a wasteland but throughout The
First Twenty, there is no explanation of anything. It is simply actions, consequences
(more often poorly executed ones), and more description of the two main characters
than anything else. There is no background. We are thrust into this decaying world,
and not even those from the Before say anything about what happened. Was it a
nuclear war? Did the government collapse? There were too many open ends that

still plenty of people alive who remember what it was like and even still follow
through with the same practices like using last names. If it was so recent, why don t

Character And Conflict In The Cop And The Anthem, By
Ray...
In both short stories, The Cop and the Anthem By O. Henry and The Pedestrian By
Ray Bradbury, both authors used character and conflict. in the short stories, the
characters used have a lonely personality to them which causes conflict between
misunderstood police. The conflict, both involves something or someone missing in
their life, though neither do not mind and going through with life somehow. The
story of The Cop and the Anthem is about a man named Soapy trying to figure out
how to get into jail since he was homeless and need a place to go for the winter
season. He tries his best to get thrown in jail but never does succeed. However,
when he finally gives up, a policeman sends the homeless man to jail for the 3
months; just long enough to be saved by the brutal winter. In the story of The
Pedestrian, Mr. Leonard Mead has no one to be with him. He drowns in his sorrows
by walking on the street at night. For the past ten years, he had been walking on
the same route every night. He pasts by other families homes and wishing he could
have the same. A police car comes by and assume Mr. Leonard Mead was doing
illegal actives. The car sends him to the Psychiatric Center for Research on
Regressive Tendencies. Both O. Henry and Bradbury used character and conflict to
communicate the theme of the short stories. The central idea of the short story, The
Cop and the Anthem is to let fate happen and bring you to what you desire most. O.
Henry uses the literary elements, character and conflict, throughout the story. He
was filled with sadness. He was still free. Was he going to remain free forever?
This shows the character of Soapy determine to get thrown into jail to stay away
from the cold, three month winter. The conflict, preventing Soapy from
succeeding for a trip to jail, was he was too desperate to go to jail, and the police did
not believe him. And Soapy, sick at heart, walked slowly away. He had failed two
times. and Soapy felt a hand on his arm. He looked quickly around into the broad
face of a cop. What are you doing hanging around here? asked the cop. Nothing, said
Soapy. You think I believe that? said the cop. Full of his new strength, Soapy began
to argue. And it is not wise to
Essay on Expanding the Literary Canon
Expanding the Literary Canon
While this essay can in no way claim to contain a fully representative sampling of
what various scholars have contributed relative to the ongoing debate over the
literary canon, I will attempt to highlight three distinct positions which are all
informed by John Guillory s critical contributions to the canonical debate. First, I
will discuss the concept of ideology and canon formation as Guillory first articulated
it in his 1983 essay, The Ideology of Canon Formation: T. S. Eliotand Cleanth
Brooks, and which he subsequently thoroughly revised and included in his 1993 book
on canon formation, Cultural Capital: The Problem of literary Canon Formation This

Of course the marginal elite he is referring to here is the literary culture within the
academy. He goes on to posit that while it is unlikely that the formations of canons
can ever be removed from ideological conflicts, that in essence, this is not really
saying much at all (145)! While the marriage ofideology and canon formation may
be self evident, Guillory still goes on in the essay to carefUlly delineate how the
ideological concerns of T. S. Eliot culminated in Eliot s creation ofa revisionist canon
which operated as somewhat of a shadow canon along side the established literary
canon by elevating the importance of the Metaphysical poets at the expense ofthe
established poets ofthe traditional canon Milton, Shakespeare, Keats, Shelley, Yeats,
etc. According to Guillory, the recipients of Eliot s canon (scholars, academics) the
marginal elite , act as the clergy ofthe orthodoxy ofthe literary culture, occupying, as
Guillory points out, a perch not unlike that of Eliot s preferred poets: Its real status
is precisely that of Donne s poetry, which circulated among a coterie of admirers, or
a marginal elite (151).
Guillory maintains that it is Cleanth Brooks who is left with the task of translating
Eliot s many ideological concerns; the doctrine ofimpersonality relative creative
invention as articulated in Tradition and the Individual Talent , the monumental and

Social Media Is Fspring Of The World Wide Web Essay
Social media is the offspring of the world wide web (www) found in 1989 by Tim
Berners Lee which includes blogs, forums, business networks, social gaming,
microblogs, chat apps, photo sharing platforms and social networks. The global social
penetration stands around 30%. 10% of total the total Indian population is active on
social media platforms.
Facebook is the most used social network on social media with a huge base of 100
Million users which makes it 53% of total internet users. More than 80% of those
users access Facebook via their mobile phone. It has been adding half a million
new users in its bracket every day. Due to its immense popularity, the large
companies are investing around $100 million on Facebook advertising per year.
Interestingly, statistics of India shows that people using Facebook between the age
bracket from 20 39, are the highest; accounting to 88 million people. Unlike what is
commonly thought that females use social media more than males, 67 million users
out of 88 million are males in the age bracket of 20 39 years.
This vast difference is very worrysome as there are 640 million women living in
india. This is a major chunk of untapped market which if taken under the stride of
social media marketing, can be very profitable. This is mainly because of the rate of
female technological illiteracy. There has been a growth of several initiatives to spur
the growth of technological literacy amongst females; one such initiative is Google

Electronic Health Records And Its Disadvantages
Electronic Health Record Issues in Health Care Health information systems must
work for those that are at the point of service. This is because they are the first point
of contact and the face of the health care system. These individuals are usually
doctors, nurses, physician assistants, and pharmacists who are providing patient care
and need to maintain patient trust. Patient who seeks medical advice trust that
treatment decisions made from providers consists of quality and care. By using
electronic health records, provider communication will increase and medical errors
will be reduced due to the ease of use. However, among these advantages,
complications such as user resistance, cost and patient safety continues to challenge
electronic health recordimplementations and further delay its use. In order to
ensure electronic health records are ready for prime time, this paper will review the
current issues of electronic health records and its disadvantages. Following this
review, possible solutions will be provided to address the pressing issues of
electronic health records. Finally, a conclusion will be made regarding how
electronic health records should continue to deliver quality and help providers
develop a patient centered care.
User Resistance First of all, users resist system changes due to the loss of
productivity and lack of technological support. This is because every time there is a
new system change, user work flows always change. When workflows change, the
Sylvia Plath Poetry Style Analysis
Sylvia Plath: Joie de Vivre Perhaps some day I ll crawl back home, beaten,
defeated. But not as long as I can make stories out of my heartbreak, beauty out of
sorrow, wrote Sylvia Plath in her journals, unpublished until nineteen years following
her death. The relevance between the American author s life and the inspiration of
her literary works cannot be disputed. She wrote about distinct experiences, from the
death of her father at a young age to the depression she fell into after her husband
left her. Plath, burdened with hardship, turned her pain into numerous influential
poems and a semi autobiographical novel, The Bell Jar. She received the honors of
the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry and the Glascock Prize as recognition of her works....

As described previously, Daddy combines specific details of Plath s life and her
father s, making comparisons as brutal as to the Holocaust in their own home, and
comparing him to the devil. In Daddy she wrote that he, Bit my pretty red heart in
two. / I was ten when they buried you. / At twenty I tried to die / And get back,
back, back to you. / I thought even the bones would do. / But they pulled me out of
the sack, / And they stuck me together with glue. Each line written describes
specific events in her life, and it could not be clearer. This one of sixteen stanzas is
exactly related to the events in her life, yet also provides insight into her own
thoughts on herself. In Ariel, plath wrote of being suicidal, thus describing her life as
she attempted suicide many different times and was successful in 1963 when she
killed herself ( Sylvia Plath. Biography).
As much as one could continue connecting Sylvia Plath s life and work based on
simple life details, why she wrote about her life is far more compelling. She was said
to have wanted to understand her own mind, the mind that doctors seemed to
understand better than herself. Plath also wrote certain works intending her family
never read them, stating that she did not want her mother to read The Bell Jar
because it was indicative of her suicidal thoughts. Sylvia Plath made
Chimpanzee Gene Flow Analysis
There are four forces of evolution that species can go through: natural selection,
genetic drift, mutations, and gene flow (Fuentes 98). Though species most often
experience all four forces of evolution at one point in their history, certain forces of
evolution may be more significant to the evolution of a particular species. This is the
case for chimpanzees. Though it is evident that the species was affected by all four
forces throughout the history of their evolution, there is one force that proved most
significant in the process. The force of evolution most significant in the development
of chimpanzees as a species is geneflow. This analysis describes the dynamics of
gene flow within chimpanzee populations and explores the role of gene flow as the
initiating factor and central component in the evolutionary process and assessments
regarding physical and behavioral similarities among members of a species.
Background Information
There are two main ways gene flow occurs between chimpanzee populations.
Migration is the first. Migration occurs when individuals or groups of individuals
move from one population to another. This movement results in the transfer of
genetic information from one generation to the next (Servedio 92). The transferring
of genetic information causes genotypes to change within the ... Show more content

Examples Of Essays About Yourself

  • 1. Examples Of Essays About Yourself Writing an essay about yourself can be a challenging task, as it requires a delicate balance between self-expression and humility. It's a fine line to walk – one must convey personal experiences and qualities without coming across as overly boastful or self-deprecating. Selecting the right examples to showcase your character and achievements is crucial, and there's always the risk of either underselling or overselling oneself. The difficulty lies not only in the writing process but also in the introspection it demands. Crafting an essay about yourself necessitates a deep dive into your own life, identifying meaningful experiences and qualities that define you. It's akin to navigating a maze of memories and emotions, trying to paint an authentic picture without oversharing or leaving crucial aspects unexplored. Moreover, the challenge extends to finding the right balance between humility and confidence. Striking this equilibrium is essential to connect with the reader effectively. Too much self-praise might be off-putting, while excessive modesty could undermine the purpose of the essay – to highlight your unique qualities. Additionally, the challenge is compounded by the need to tailor the essay to its purpose. Whether it's for a college application, a job interview, or a personal statement, the tone and content must align with the expectations of the audience. This requires a keen understanding of the specific requirements and a skillful adaptation of one's narrative. In conclusion, writing an essay about yourself is no easy feat. It demands introspection, careful selection of experiences, and a nuanced understanding of how to present oneself. It's a process that requires time, self-awareness, and a keen eye for effective communication. However, with the right approach, it can be a rewarding exercise in self-discovery and expression. For those finding this task overwhelming, it's worth noting that assistance is available.

  • 2. Nafta Case Study The world has changed dramatically in the last twenty or so years with the advent of the internet. One of the greatest changes to the world was e commerce. One of the largest companies that came about because of this change is Amazon. Amazon is one of the largest online e commerce stores that sells almost everything. This case study will examine Amazon, international trade, and Canada. To regulate international trade, governments put into place different forms of regulation. Some of this regulation protects domestic companies while others promote trade. Currently, the United States of America, Mexico, and Canada have a free trade agreement to promote trade between the three countries. This agreement is called the North American Free Trade...

Canada s currency is called the Canadian Dollar, or CAD for short. According to Bloomberg.com, the current ratio between USD and the CAD is $1.2621 to $1 USD. The Canadian Dollar has displayed a trend over the past year of its value dropping. This drop in value on the global exchange will affect prices in Canada. As the CAD value drops, its exports will be cheaper for other nations while imports, like products from Amazon, will be more expensive for the Canadian people. The dropping value of CAD will continue to change prices and might cause products imported into Canada by Amazon to be priced out of the market. A helpful tool to consider when discussing the possibilities of a culture for a particular company is the Hofstede s Cultural Dimension. Hofstede s Cultural Dimension studies different aspects of a nation s culture in comparison to other cultures around the world.

These categories, also called indexes include the following: Power Distance (PDI), Individualism versus Collectivism (IDV), Masculinity versus Femininity (MAS), Uncertainty avoidance index (UAI), Long Term Orientation
  • 3. Mao Zedong Of The World Essay Though Mao Zedong would argue the people wield the power to change history, they do not. Perhaps they should, but that concerns epistemological questions. And while elements of Mao s perspective that the people comprise the motive force in the making of world history wafted around in compelling the U.S. to intervene in Iraqin 2003, it is not a sufficient explanation. The people did not form the chief reason for the Iraqi campaign, and certainly did not originate the intervention alone , as Mao s philosophy would suggest. Alternatively, Scottish philosopher Thomas Carlyle contends, The history of the world is but the biography of great men. He rightly locates the locus of watershed moments in history: great men. At the very least, a few powerful men ultimately control the people s destiny both near to and far from home. In reality, a small, elite group of individuals set the agenda for world order. As evidenced by the 2003 Iraq War, a tight circle of plutocrats the president, his advisors, and those with skin in the financial game can steer the course for two entire nations for a decade. The Bush Doctrine vastly expanded what the United States deems a vital interest dragging preГ«mptive action, unilateralism, and anti terrorism under its umbrella. Democratizing nations plays a critical role in the strategy as well. A spirit of liberalism flows through the Doctrine, as it attempts to depose tyrannical dictators to ease relations between nations and foster democracy. It
  • 4. The Basic Understanding Of Knowledge Everything in the world needs structure, even concepts. Logic is the structure of the relationship between concepts, in other words, logic is the study of thinking itself. Concepts can be organized by mutual exclusion, overlap, inclusion, and mutual coincidence. Also, there are two types of reasoning (logic), deductive and inductive. In philosophy, knowledge can be described as justified true belief. Logic, or reasoning , is used to justify beliefs to determine whether they are true or not. Hence, knowledge is dependent upon logic because logic is needed to justify the true belief. Experience along with logic and reasoning helps to derive knowledge. First, there must be a basic understanding of knowledge. Epistemology is the theory of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Logicians are interested in how to form rules to figure out if a particular type of reasoning is logical, whereas psychologist are concerned with the mental process of thinking. Reasoning is used as evidence to come up with a conclusion and thus, justify a belief. Furthermore, logic can be split up into two parties, inductive reasoning and deductive reasoning. Inductive reasoning is a theory concerned with the relationship between evidence and a conclusion that is drawn from that evidence. This type of reasoning goes from the particular to the general. In addition, inductive reasoning deals with inferences that are probable, not valid. This form of logic is usually used in science and is often used interchangeably with the process, scientific method. Inductive reasoning usually bases its conclusions on prior patterns that have occurred. For example, if a person were to state the following: All so far observed, water boils at a 212 degrees Fahrenheit, this is water, therefore it will boil at 212 degrees Fahrenheit. The particular portion of this statement would be water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit. This is based on the previous patterns of water boiling at 212 degrees Fahrenheit. Thus, if said liquid is water then one can conclude that water will boil at 212 degrees Fahrenheit with disregard to location. On the other hand, deductive reasoning deals with valid inferences. This branch of logic goes from the general to the

Power point (2) was when Warner and Vivian became in engage, she felt she was on top of the winner circle for being engage to Warner. Another great part of the movie I find very powerful, was when Elle became the attorney for Brooke Windham, which was on trial for the murder of her husband. In the beginning Elle feels very afraid, but she gain her confidence and won the case. With this big win not only did Elle gain confidence, she also receive power, which was the two main things she was lacking when she first enter into law school. Main conflicts took place within the entire movie. Many were big and some were small. The first of many conflict was when Elle and Vivian first met. Next was when Elle s teacher tried to make moves on her. But the one I feel was the biggest of all conflicts was the on Elle was battling within herself.

  • 6. The Shale Is A Rock Locality 1 I have I determined specimen A as a black Shale. I have found out that the shale is a sedimentary rock. The rock is dark/black coloured from the picture, therefore suggests that it has high organic matter. From research I have concluded that shale is commonly marine as it is usually found in rivers, lakes and the sea floor and this will suggest to me that the shale is from a low energy environment. The rock is hard but it is quite brittle. I have established that all the grain sizes are less than 0.5mm which tells me they are fine grained when looking at the Wentworth s scale. I have concluded that the fossil in the shale is called a didymograptus. The picture clearly shows us that it has two stipes in which I have calculated ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... I have tested the rock against Mohs Hardness scale and as it can be scratched from a fingernail it has a hardness of 2.5. I have managed to calculate the density of the galena. I did this by weighing it to find the mass which was 92.6g then I found out how much water the galena displaces to find out the volume which was 11cm^3. And when I put it into the fomula by using the mass and the volume I was able to work out the density: 92.6/11 = 8.4g/cm^3. I have researched and found that the galena was probably formed inside a hydrothermal vein by precipitation. Locality 3 In locality 3, the picture clearly shows me that it is red sandstone and also a coarse sandstone syncline and I have concluded it to being quite open. I have also noticed that the syncline is symmetrical as I can use the axial plane in order to see this. The picture presents just a trough. The trough shape therefore tells us that the younger rocks are on the inside. There is a visible unconformity shown on the image located slightly above the syncline and this unconformity would have been younger. I have calculated that the limb lengths are nearly the same in length as I have calculated the average limb length of the syncline from using the image to be 5.52cm and if I use the scale I found out that that is 22.08m. The average plane dip plane dip was 19.4 degrees which is a little different to the other side which tells me that there was a slight difference in tension from each of the

All the children came from urban areas one might consider a basin of criminal activity. Suddenly, Jared leapt to his feet.

  • 12. Analysis Of A Girl By Gardiner Harris Rape Of Girl Everywhere around the world women and girls are terrorized, mistreated and victims of abuse, rape, and assault. Sadly this kind of treatment towards women and girls is often very common in Asian countries. The article by Gardiner Harris entitled, Rape of Girl, 5, Draws Focus to Child Assault in India , talks about how an innocent five year old girl was raped, tortured and almost killed in India. Harris wrote in the article that people demand stricter laws against sex crimes and that there should be more protection for women. In Asia women tend to be less desirable, and are treated with less respect than a man. Harris also claims that news reports are packed with stories about heinous crimes and assaults against women (Gardiner Harris, 2013).... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Dexter Filkins wrote an article entitled Afghan Girls, Scarred by Acid, Defy Terror, Embracing School. Filkins wrote that Shamsia Husseini was the victim of an acid attack because a man was trying to terrorize the girls into staying home from school. Filkins wrote that Shamsia claims The people who did this to me don t want women to be educated, they want us to be stupid things (Dexter Filkins, 2009). This article relates to the article, Rape of Girl, 5, Draws Focus to Child Assault in India , because both articles talk about how girls and women in some Asian countries are thought to be inferior to men, and can be terrorized or abused into doing what others want. This article is very deviant, because a hate crime such as throwing acid on someone is never okay. It is deviant to use violence to get what you want. A man throwing acid on a girl to keep her from going school and being educated is very deviant. The Gender Conflict Theory applies to this article as well, because a man threw acid on a girl to stop her from being
  • 13. The Perception Of Mortality In Albert Camus s The Stranger Mortality is a concept that can shadow a person s philosophy on life, and heavily influences the behaviors and motivations of literary characters. Human beings question mortality and what it means in alignment to the purpose and significance of living. Many of the character in the catalog of our reading this semester have self made philosophies on mortality that manifest in the thought processes of characters and direction their stories and lives take. The way that characters comprehend mortality proves itself to be a major influence on the behaviors and motivations that are integral to these novels. You see mortality through the lens of chance, existentialism, religion, violence, even as the catalyst for appreciating life. The interpretations of mortality are often shaped by the experiences we go through, and this holds true in complicated, simple, and unique texts. In Albert Camus The Stranger, Meursault believes that life is meaningless in the face of death; it Is assured that every human will die, so the choices we make in this lifetime have little relevance or meaning. This theory that one life was as good as another (Camus, 22) governs much of this novel. The first lines introduce the passing of Meursault s mother, immediately informing the reader of the apathy he shows where most people would react with grief and reflect on the sadness of the situation, Meursault reacts indifferently with That doesn t mean anything (Camus, 1). This is not a direct reflection
  • 14. Nepenthes Rajah Case Study Background Nepenthes rajah is a type of carnivorous pitcher plant found predominantly in the hot and nutrient deficient soils of the Southeast Asian tropics. Since the soil is nutrient deficient, N. rajah captures arthropods that falls into its jug shaped leaf organ as a source of N and P to grow; similarly to other pitcher plants. However, unlike other pitcher plants, N. rajah also strangely interacts mutually with two small mountain mammals: Tupaia Montana and Rattus baluensis. This is different from other Nepenthes species as they only interact with T. montana. These two mammals feed on the sweet nectar that N. rajah produces and in return, persistently defecates inside the pitcher. N. rajah benefits because it consumes the nutrient rich fecal matter for an additional source of N. This unique mutualistic relationship between a carnivorous plant and multiple small mammals was investigated Greenwood et al (2011). The study invested the strength of mutualism between N. rajah and the two mammals via scat deposition rates. Alongside with that, the visiting behavior of the two mammals and N. rajah was documented to show possible competition or avoidance between the mammals, and the similarities and differences between said two mammals. ...

Both mammals had a similar frequency of scat deposits despite the higher visitation rate of T. montana compared to R. baluensis. The researchers concluded this was due to R. baluensis having a higher degree of accuracy in depositing the scat inside in pitcher, whereas T. montana had a significantly lower accuracy rate and defecated outside the pitcher. Regardless of the lower accuracy in T. montana, N. rajah still receives a total N level from feces that may range higher than 57% results found in a study containing a Nepenthes species and T. montana, because N. rajah is involved with two
  • 15. Otc Hearing Aid Effectiveness In the United States, only 25% of the people who need hearing aids use them. One possible reason for this is accessibility. Getting a hearing aid requires a trip to see a specialist. Both the visit and the hearing aids themselves can be expensive if not covered by health insurance. One possible way of getting more hearing aids to the people who need them is to sell them over the counter (OTC). To see if this option is feasible, Indiana University Bloomington tested the theory through a study of OTC hearing aid effectiveness. The Study To conduct the study, researchers gathered 154 people with mild to moderate hearing loss between the ages of 55 and 79. These participants were split into three groups. One group worked with an audiologist to have their hearing aid properly fitted and programmed. Members of another group were given hearing aids that had been pre programmed in the same way that OTC devices would be. The final group served as a control group and were given non functioning hearing aids. All three groups tested their hearing aids for six weeks. The Results Both of the groups that received working hearing aids fared much better than those who were given placebo units. While both of the test groups with functional hearing aids did well, the group who worked with a hearing specialist like Audiology Island did fare slightly better ...

  • 16. Significances Of Total Solar Eclipses A Total Solar Eclipse occurs when the visible portion of our Moon covers the visible portion of our sun, causing it to seem like a white ring with a black center, causing an extremely unique view of our sun and Moon. The Total Solar Eclipse can only be seen from a few points in the world, in the umbral shadow. Most people in the world will only see a partial Solar Eclipse, where the Moonwill only cover a portion of the sun, due to the fact that they re in the penumbral. While not as unique, it s still a rare sight to behold. The reason Solar Eclipses are so rare to begin with is due to the special coincidence of the Moon and sun being the same size to our eyes. While our sun is 400 times the size of our Moon, our sun is also 400 times farther away, causing them to appear the same size in our sky. As previously stated, you can only see a Total Solar Eclipse from an umbral shadow, which is the darkest part of the shadow cast on the Earth. This only happens when the Moon Totally covers the sun, but this is not the only factor. The Moon also has to be close to, or at the point of perigee, the point of the Moon s orbit closest to Earth. The penumbral shadow is only visible when the Moon only partly obscures the Sun s disk, causing a partial Solar Eclipse, but there are still more. There s the Annular Solar Eclipse, which is similar to a Total Solar Eclipse, but the Moon is too small to completely cover the sun, and the Sun s outer edges remain visible to form a ring of fire in the sky.

After luminol was synthesized by the condensation of 3 nitrophthalic acid with hydrazine, which produces 3 nitrophthalhydrazine and is reduced using sodium hydrosulfite to yield luminol, the chemical luminescent properties could be observed. Reacting luminol with potassium ferricyanide, the oxidizing agent, and hydrogen peroxide displays this chemiluminescent reaction. Amide bonds are a vital part of nature.

This occurs when a product is generated in the excited state and then relaxes to the ground state in which a photon is emitted. When the electron relaxes, energy is released as a vibration and heat. Electrons in the same orbital are paired and must have opposite spins. There are two types of electronic states: singlet and triplet. In a singlet state, the spins of all of the electrons are paired while in a triplet state, the spins are flipped or unpaired. Phosphorescence and fluorescence occurs when electrons relax from the singlet and triplet states and emit visible light. Fluorescence emits light at a longer wavelength than it is absorbed. This process is rather fast as the light appears to be a blue green color. Phosphorescence is very similar to that of fluorescence. However, in phosphorescence there is longer interval between the excited and ground states since the flipped spin has to flip back. This flipping of spins requires energy which leads to a less energetic triplet state compared to that of the singlet state. The longer interval in phosphorescence also sometimes results in a red color and a longer excited state period. Chemiluminescence also has other usages such as its ability to identify when blood is present. The luminol turns blue green when the alkaline solution is exposed to

  • 20. Henry Viii Wholly Surrendered Power Do you agree with the view that in the years 1515 1525 Henry VIII wholly surrendered power in government to Cardinal Wolsey? To a certain extent within 
Source 4 (by J.J. Scarisbrick 1968) supports the idea that possibly Henry VIII actually did surrender power over to Wolsey. The evidence within the source that suggests this possibly for being the truth is a self indulgent King had wholly surrendered the cares of the state into the Cardinals hands . To further support this case, it is clear that Wolsey was extremely powerful, he had vast amounts of bishoprics (Archbishop of Canterbury, Tournai, Durham just to name a few) and was the head of things such as the Star Chamber where Wolsey got himself heavily involved with. This is shown ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... However, Source 5 written in 1994 by John Lotherington, appears to disagree with that of the view of source 4. In parts it appears to actually agree with source 4, Wolsey held a dominant position in governmentand controlled the distribution of patronage but then the source continues to say, And of course the ultimate source of all power was the King . This quote can be proven true with examples of Henry preventing Wolsey from doing something, such as in 1523 when Wolsey launched a sea attack upon the French without the kings permission, this led to Wolsey having to apologize for his actions. This shows that Henry still had control over Wolsey and that he couldn t get away with something so easily. Also even though source 4 claims that Wolsey had very strong control, that even with this power he couldn t prevent such things like The Amicable Grant of 1525 from being a disaster, and without aids from The Dukes of Norfolk and Suffolk it could have been an even more disastrous, this proves Henry was more in control than Wolsey because the Dukes only subdued the rebellions on Henry s behalf, not Wolsey s. This is showing how Henry had not wholly surrendered his government power, and could still contest Wolsey s decisions and problems. The source was also written in 1994, therefore the historians view is likely to be more factual rather than written in the period and being more biased, as can be the case, especially if that figure in

The Middle Pecos Groundwater Conservation District water edited corey paul to Mary, me 50 minutes agoDetails The Middle Pecos Groundwater Conservation District will set a hearing for the company seeking a new water supply for Odessa as soon as this month, while a public battle over the proposal continues. Winning the hearing doesn t mean Republic Water Company of Texaswill win approval to export the water. Board members, for example, could dismiss the application as another version of a request the board already denied, prompting another lawsuit. But City of Odessa and company officials say they view it as a step closer to winning an export permit for what they describe as a long term and higher quality water supply even if it might end up costing more. The district will have to hold the hearing by the end of the year after determining the application complete. Meanwhile, company officials say they still plan to request a hearing before an administrative law judge instead of the district board. The judge s decision would be non binding but could be used in a lawsuit if the board acted against his or her findings. It s always been our intention because of the emotional nature of this topic in that county that everyone would be better served if you take it out of the hands of this district and have a (State Office of Administrative Hearings) judge view it without this lens, said Jimmy Perkins, a principal with Republic Water Company.

This poem was not published until 1971; ten years after it was written. Mirror was written two years before Plath separated from her husband and shortly after committing suicide. Mirror speaks freely about women and their obsession with appearance and aging. In a way Plath used Mirror, in order to portray what she herself had been dealing with, in a time where she felt the most vulnerable and insecure as she was getting older. This was a self reflectionpoem from the voice of a third party; which in this case would be the mirror itself. The Mirror was the main character that would see many faces, after reading this poem it would seem as if Plath was using the mirror to criticize women in general for feeling the way they do about their appearance, when in fact the second stanza focuses on one particular woman, which is believed to be Plath criticizing herself for the way she felt about her appearance and aging. The theme of women and their obsession with appearance and aging is portrayed through the use of various literary devices and no specific rhyme scheme, however, metaphors, symbolism, and imagery are prominent throughout the entire poem.

Living costs changes from place to place in country so there is different living wage rate for London and rest of the country. Living wage is administered and promoted by the Living wage foundation. Politicians has given its widespread support but limited endorsement is been given by employers. The particular amount that must be earned per hour to meet these needs varies depending on location. In the 1990s the first living wage campaigns were launched by community initiatives in the US addressing increasing poverty faced by workers and their families. They argued that employee, employer, and the community win with a living wage. Employees would be more willing to work, helping the employer reduce worker turnover, and it would help the community when the citizens have enough to have a decent life. Prime Minister David Cameron has said he supports the idea in principle. Ken Livingstone and Boris Johnson both London s former and current mayor, are supporters of living wage. The Greater London Authority (GLA) is among the organisations that pay the living wage to their employees.

Compliance is a specific response to a specific request, while conformity generally involves unspoken pressure to behave in a particular manner. Generally, compliance involves request which could be explicit such as using the foot in the door technique. Most of the time, in compliance, the child is told to respond or complete the task told in a desirable manner; while in conformity, a person is expected to behave in a particular manner (Cialdini and Trost, 1998). Compliance plays a major role in building and maintaining relationships where children learn to behave in a certain manner to maintain status quo (Cialdini and Trost, 1998). When we comply with an instruction, we receive praises, or lavished with social acceptance and gifts. By doing so, the children feel accepted, wanted and loved by other peers. In a way, compliance acts as a form of conditioning the behavior expected from their peers (Cialdini and Trost, 1998). It is easy to view compliance as a form of concession due to the obligation children might have towards their peers. Studies have found that with compliance, children tend to bend towards peer pressure and it has a significant effect towards negative behavior (Adams et al, 2000; Fanti and Henrich, 2010). This isn t surprising, as children

The first delay of the Challenger was due to the expected weather front and presence of the Vice President (ENGINEERING.com). Since rain and cold temperatures were expected to move into the area, they didn t want the Vice President to make unnecessary trips. However, the launch window became perfect weather conditions since the weather front stalled. The second delay was due to a defective microswitch in the hatch locking mechanism. By the time the problem was fixed, the winds became too high and the weather front had started to move again. Due to these delays, the night before the launch, there was a teleconference between engineers and management from Kennedy Space Center, Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama, and Morton Thiokol in Utah (ENGINEERING.com). This teleconference was to investigate whether the challenger was safe to launch with the predicted temperatures of low 20s. Due to inconclusive data and having no low temperature data below 53В°F, the managers recommended the launch to continue and not be delayed. Temperatures dropped to about 8В°F the night before launch. On January 28, 1986, the space shuttle challenger broke apart after seventy three seconds from launch (History.com). This catastrophic event killed the entire crew in Challenger while traumatizing the nation and throwing the NASA s shuttle program into turmoil.

I aim to show how these two essays are alike by comparing their similar theme of carpe diem as well as some stylistic choices.

Like the moth essay, Once More to the Lake deals with the concepts of life and death, but it does so in a less direct way. The part of the essay I would like to focus on is White s realization that time is marching ever forward. This part is not actually a specific point in the essay but takes place throughout the whole of it much like the moths slow, yet lively trudge toward death. Gradually, White realizes that he has morphed into the image of his father that he had as a boy, and that his son will someday take his place as well, shown by the line, I began to sustain the illusion that he was I, and therefore, by simple transposition, that I was my father. At the very end, White says, As he buckled the swollen belt suddenly my groin felt the chill of death, which is White realizing his own mortality. Although, this is where the essay ends, I imagine that this realization sparked something within him that drove him to appreciate his life and live it more fully, enjoying the company of his family and friends, which is why he went to the lake in the first place. Again, this echoes the carpe diem

Fur Industry s Effect on Society The fur trading industry played a major role in the development of the United States and Canada for more than 300 years. The fur trade began in the 1500 s as an exchange between Indians and Europeans. The Indians traded furs for such goods as tools and weapons. Beaver fur, which was used in Europe to make felt hats, became the most valuable of these furs. The fur trade prospered until the mid 1800, when fur bearing animals became scarce and silk hats became more popular than felt hats made with beaver. Traders and trappers explored much of North America in search of fur. They built trading posts in the wilderness, and settlements grew up around many of these posts. Some of these settlements later became such major cities as Detroit, New Orleans, and St. Louis in the United States; and Edmonton, Montreal, Quebec, and Winnipeg in Canada. Also as a result of the Fur trade, the beaver population depleted, Indian trappers became debilitated, tribal cultures buckled under the pressure of new economic motives, tools and values. Consequently, since production fell within an area, the traders moved and settlers moved in developing farms and towns. The Indians in that area were either killed or moved by the government.

Many people don t realize the scale of space. You are essentially a grain of sand on an endless beach. NASA is a space exploration program dedicated to discovering the beach we live in. However, it costs billions of dollars to explore space. The United States government must raise the lowered funding of NASA, allowing the program to perform larger missions at a faster rate. NASA is responsible for putting a man on the Moon, landing rovers on the surface of Mars, and many other astounding accomplishments. They perform all of these feats through funding from the United States government. NASA shouldn t have to deal with budget cuts because of the work they put in and the information they learn from space. To begin with, funding for NASA has dramatically been reduced compared to the 1960s during the Space Race (Budget of NASA 1). In 1966, where the funding for NASA peaked, the United States government gave NASA almost 6 billion dollars which is about 37 billion dollars today (1). This was equal to about 4.4% of the United States annual budget (1). The last official record of the NASA budget was in 2012, a little over 18 billion dollars (1). This still sounds like a lot of money, which it is, but the cut has reduced the budget by a third of what it used to be (1). NASA has had to turn towards smaller, single purpose satellites and probes (Butler 59). This is a good and bad

Performance monitoring can help identify lapses in productivity and eliminate the need to have people onsite. Edward E.

With managers who can set meaningful goals, monitor performance results and provide feedback, remote working can produce good results. Without skilled managers, it will be a failure. On the Bloomberg BNA website (bna.com), Genevieve Douglas wrote about remote opportunities after hearing David Lewis, president and CEO of HR consulting firm Operations Inc. at the Society for Human Resource Management s annual conference in Orlando, FL.: Lewis said that employers should use a remote work option when the available talent in a commutable distance is scarce or when life changes alter an employee s circumstances. However, he said, not every employee is a good candidate for a remote set up. According to Lewis, employees who should be allowed to work remotely include those who have jobs where the nature of the work can be performed without face to face interaction with co workers or clients. Employees would also have to demonstrate that they are capable of working remotely in terms of being mature and independent and having a proven track record, he

At heart, it is a free verse epic designed to memorialize the bravery of the six hundred men who readily rode into the valley of Death under the aegis of patriotism. Tennyson uses this poem not glorify the battle itself but, rather the soldiers who were an epitome of obedience and valor in spite of the blunders made by their superiors. In the first stanza, Tennyson, with his apt use of repetition and language, is able to offer the reader a ringside seat to the action on the battlefield as the Light Brigade is ordered to charge into enemy lines in the pursuit of guns.

The ambiguity in what exactly the people were perplexed about were they perplexed by the soldiers bravery or by the fact that they were consciously sent to fight a losing battle, gives the reader the freedom to use their imagination to explore the plethora of emotions felt by the people back home at the time of this battle. The theme of inescapability and inescapabilty are further established in the following line through strong diction: Plunged in the battery smoke . The word plunged has connotations of helplessness, allowing the reader to imagine the utter desperation experienced by the soldier as he is consumed by smoke. The sheer horror of this image allows the reader to appreciate the soldier s bravery in such horrible times. It is due to this valor that the soldiers seem to emerge victorious as suggested by the lines: Reel d from the sabre stroke/ Shatter d and sunder d.

Coral bleaching has led to increase of un healthy reefs. The raising of sea temperatures slows down coral growth and loss of coral. Coral bleaching is expected to occur more often and worse in the future, making it difficult for corals to recover. Some coral types, such as staghorn corals, are really sensitive to bleaching, and these will be the most affected. Corals that deal with the sea temperatures better will dominate the Great Barrier Reef. Some reefs rely on the animals to help control coral bleaching; climate change has effect some marine animals such as some of the fish of the Great Barrier Reef. The preferred temperature range leads them to find a new habitat. Climate change will also affect the population and sea turtle s e habitat.

All of Spielberg s movies prior to 1985 were generally movies of either action packed adventure or unnerving horror, but once Steven Spielberg announced that he would be doing a movie based on Alice Walker s book, The Color of Purple, no one knew what to expect. Jump 31 years later, Steven Spielberg s The Color of Purple, is still seen as a film masterpiece that deals with a grotesque yet historical insight of African Americanculture back in the early 1900 s. Through the depiction of visual art form of film, Steven Spielberg was able to highlight certain aspects of everyday African American life back then such as the existence of sexism, racism and the importance of familial relationships. However, Steven Spielberg emphasizes and brings to the spotlight the aspect of sexism of the historical African American community. With a movie full of uncomfortable and daunting scenes, Steven Spielberg is able to underline the evil social facet of sexism faced by African American women in their community in the past.

The dual legacies of discrimination against ethnic minorities and the country s uneven economic development have created strong support in non Persian areas for political reform. During recent presidential elections, the non Persian electorate tilted heavily toward the reformist wing. Support for democratic political change among Irans ethnic minorities is likely to persist so long as the country s periphery remains an economic backwater. Although the Iranian economy has been growing, the symptoms of underdevelopment remain acute in Iran s ethnic enclaves. Discrimination, compounded by poor economic conditions, could motivate ethnic groups to challenge the Iranian government in the future. A combination of state sponsored suppression of Azeri sentiment (during the Pahlavi rule) and a massive integration movement toward the Iranian mainstream (under the Islamic regime) has prevented the rise of ethnic nationalism in the northwest. As a result, there has been the crystallization of an overarching sense of Iranian nationalism, which has been skillfully manipulated and intertwined with allegiance to the tenets of Shi i Islam, which makes a universal devotion to Iranian national identity possible. The bloody past with the Arabs, Iran s historic enemy, cemented the feeling of Iranian Iran Ethnic Conflicts 10 nationalism that was able to overshadow ethnic nationalism across the nascent Islamic Republic.

LANDING GEAR SAFETY DEVICES Most airplanes with a retractable landing gear have a gear warning horn that will sound when the airplane is configured for landing and the landing gear is not down and locked. Normally, the horn is linked to the throttle or flap position, and/or the airspeed indicator so that when the airplane is below a certain airspeed,configuration, or power setting with the gear retracted, the warning horn will sound. Accidental retraction of a landing gear may be prevented by such devices as mechanical downlocks, safety switches, and ground locks. Mechanical downlocks are built in components of a gear retraction system and are operated automatically by the gear retraction system. To prevent accidental operation of the...

What happens is that atomic hydrogen found in such substances interacts chemically with the high tensile steel in the gear, causing the affected areas to transform chemically into a brittle alloy with a risk of fracturing. The only way to counteract hydrogen embrittlement is to remove the affected component and bake it in a special oven at 375 F for 23 hours, Lind tells AMT. This allows the hydrogen atoms to migrate to the surface and then escape. Maintenance best practices When damaged aircraft landing gear comes into the shop, it costs more to overhaul than landing gear that has been maintained properly. Here is what you can do to keep your landing gear costs down. The first step is lubrication. It may sound simple, but insufficient lubrication during regular usage causes unnecessary wear and tear in many of the system s components. Lubrication is critical to the movement of all articulated parts and joints of landing gear, says Lind. Proper lubrication ensures smooth functioning, less friction and wear, and the appropriate transfer of forces throughout the gear during use. Lubrication is key to keeping out water, de icing fluid, and other corrosion causing substances. Make no mistake; corrosion is a real problem for landing gear. Before you lubricate, be sure to check the aircraft s manual to find out what substances you can and cannot use. In some cases, using the

Advances in Liver Transplants Advances in surgery and immunosuppressive therapy have improved clinical outcomes and opportunities for liver transplantation among those previously excluded (e.g., older adults) (1). During the liver allocation system prior to 2002, liver transplant recipients 60 years old were reported to have promising graft and patient survival rates similar to younger cohorts (1 12).Other published reports have cited significant mortality and complications among older recipients (13 18), though important clinical outcomes like functional status have been infrequently studied. (7, 13). In 2002, the Model for End Stage Liver Disease (MELD) system for liver allocation was implemented and it resulted in lower waiting list death rates among recipients without changing 1 year graft and patient survival (19, 20), including those 65 years (21) in comparison to the pre MELD era. However, functional status and long term clinical outcomes among older liver transplant recipients in the MELD era are unclear. Based on the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR), the number of waitlisted older adults ( 65 years) for liver transplantation has significantly increased in the past decade from 9.9% (1,637) in 2001 to 16% (2,460) in 2011 (22).

First, I will discuss the concept of ideology and canon formation as Guillory first articulated it in his 1983 essay, The Ideology of Canon Formation: T. S.

He goes on to posit that while it is unlikely that the formations of canons can ever be removed from ideological conflicts, that in essence, this is not really saying much at all (145)! While the marriage ofideology and canon formation may be self evident, Guillory still goes on in the essay to carefUlly delineate how the ideological concerns of T. S. Eliot culminated in Eliot s creation ofa revisionist canon which operated as somewhat of a shadow canon along side the established literary canon by elevating the importance of the Metaphysical poets at the expense ofthe established poets ofthe traditional canon Milton, Shakespeare, Keats, Shelley, Yeats, etc. According to Guillory, the recipients of Eliot s canon (scholars, academics) the marginal elite , act as the clergy ofthe orthodoxy ofthe literary culture, occupying, as Guillory points out, a perch not unlike that of Eliot s preferred poets: Its real status is precisely that of Donne s poetry, which circulated among a coterie of admirers, or a marginal elite (151).

More than 80% of those users access Facebook via their mobile phone. It has been adding half a million new users in its bracket every day. Due to its immense popularity, the large companies are investing around $100 million on Facebook advertising per year. Interestingly, statistics of India shows that people using Facebook between the age bracket from 20 39, are the highest; accounting to 88 million people. Unlike what is commonly thought that females use social media more than males, 67 million users out of 88 million are males in the age bracket of 20 39 years. This vast difference is very worrysome as there are 640 million women living in india. This is a major chunk of untapped market which if taken under the stride of social media marketing, can be very profitable. This is mainly because of the rate of female technological illiteracy. There has been a growth of several initiatives to spur the growth of technological literacy amongst females; one such initiative is Google #TogetherOnline.

But not as long as I can make stories out of my heartbreak, beauty out of sorrow, wrote Sylvia Plath in her journals, unpublished until nineteen years following her death. The relevance between the American author s life and the inspiration of her literary works cannot be disputed. She wrote about distinct experiences, from the death of her father at a young age to the depression she fell into after her husband left her. Plath, burdened with hardship, turned her pain into numerous influential poems and a semi autobiographical novel, The Bell Jar. She received the honors of the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry and the Glascock Prize as recognition of her works.... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... As described previously, Daddy combines specific details of Plath s life and her father s, making comparisons as brutal as to the Holocaust in their own home, and comparing him to the devil. In Daddy she wrote that he, Bit my pretty red heart in two. / I was ten when they buried you. / At twenty I tried to die / And get back, back, back to you. / I thought even the bones would do. / But they pulled me out of the sack, / And they stuck me together with glue. Each line written describes specific events in her life, and it could not be clearer. This one of sixteen stanzas is exactly related to the events in her life, yet also provides insight into her own thoughts on herself. In Ariel, plath wrote of being suicidal, thus describing her life as she attempted suicide many different times and was successful in 1963 when she killed herself ( Sylvia Plath. Biography). As much as one could continue connecting Sylvia Plath s life and work based on simple life details, why she wrote about her life is far more compelling. She was said to have wanted to understand her own mind, the mind that doctors seemed to understand better than herself. Plath also wrote certain works intending her family never read them, stating that she did not want her mother to read The Bell Jar because it was indicative of her suicidal thoughts.

Though species most often experience all four forces of evolution at one point in their history, certain forces of evolution may be more significant to the evolution of a particular species. This is the case for chimpanzees. Though it is evident that the species was affected by all four forces throughout the history of their evolution, there is one force that proved most significant in the process. The force of evolution most significant in the development of chimpanzees as a species is geneflow. This analysis describes the dynamics of gene flow within chimpanzee populations and explores the role of gene flow as the initiating factor and central component in the evolutionary process and assessments regarding physical and behavioral similarities among members of a species. Background Information There are two main ways gene flow occurs between chimpanzee populations. Migration is the first.
