4. Comparing The Final Girl In Psycho And A Nightmare On Elm...
Lastly, the use of the final girl in both films are very different. In Psycho, Hitchcock uses both Marion
and Lila as his final girls. Though both hold different characteristic traits, and one character dies early
in the film, Hitchcock also has a male character save the final girl against the villain rather than having
her face him alone. This differentiates against the film A Nightmare on Elm Street because Nancy
finds her inner demons and faces Freddy Krueger alone in her dreams. She not only grows the strength
to put her fears aside but she kills him with the satisfaction that he finally means nothing to her and
that he is worthless. Craven s depiction of the final girl is much more closely related to how this
character is portrayed in slasher films now a days.
As for the similarities, both films hold a similar storyline. There is a group of young adults who are

Cunningham s 1980 film, Friday the 13th is about a group of young adult counselors Jack, Alice, Bill,
Marcie, and Ned who are looking to set up a summer camp in the woodsy area of Crystal Lake.
Despite being told by local residents about the history of murders that have occurred there, these
characters bypass the rumors and further proceed their process until they find themselves stalked by a
mass murderer. After nine body count deaths, Alice, a sweet, innocent, virgin girl, is the sole surviving
counselor or final girl who faces the vengeful mother Mrs. Voorhees. Near the end of the movie, Alice
is sitting next to the boathouse dock by the side of a lake peacefully until Mrs. Voorhees rushes at her
with a machete. Alice luckily dodges the attack and they both begin to wrestle and fight by the
lakeside until the Mrs. Voorhees is beheaded in slow motion. This not only marks the 10th death in the
film but it also demonstrates how such a sensible, good girl can quickly change into a brave character
who is not scared of a psychopath killer. Critic Jane Flame

Finance is the appropriate area of study for me not only because of my enthusiasm for the material,
but also because of how perfectly the coursework employs my aptitude for logical reasoning,
organization, and mathematics. My placement in multivariable calculus serves as verification of my
strength in mathematics. By employing my various skills and interests, the field of finance fully
utilizes my potential, thereby yielding the most personal and academic success.

6. The Heart Of Cardiac Muscle Essay
INTRODUCTION The cardiac muscle, more commonly known as the heart muscle, is quite different
from the more familiar know skeletal muscle. Unlike skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle is able to
conduct its own electrical impulses allowing it to contract and relax spontaneously without being told
to by the brain or any other organ (Marieb, Mitchell, p. 512). This is due to the constant leakage of
sodium ions into the mainly potassium filled cells which then eventually lead to action potentials
causing the heart to beat rhythmically (Mariev, Mitchell, p.512) this rhythm is more commonly
referred to as one s heartbeat. From this BIOPAC laboratory, the student(s) should learn how different
stimuli will affect a resting heart rate. Due to the fact that cardiac muscle is able to create action
potentials on its own, a change in chemical, temperature, and ionic balance causes the heart to react
differently and change its rhythm of beats by either slowing down or speeding up. More specifically,
by saturating the heart with histamine the heart rate should speed up, while pilocarpine will cause the
heart to substantially slow, and finally the addition of epinephrine will cause the resting heart rate to
speed up.

Victorian Dress Alexander Mcqueen once said, It s an era in fashion There are no rules. It s all about
the individual and personal style, wearing high end, low end, classic labels, and up designers together.
In the Victorian Era there was a lot going on especially for the rich. If you were rich you had
glamorous tea parties and nice clothes, shoes,hair, makeup and everything else that rian had to do with
your body. If you were poor you did not have the glamorous lifestyle or clothes.
Women in the Victorian Era women dressed very extravagant. There were all kinds of different clothes
and things that mattered because of your wealth. The rich woman would wear huge dresses. They
sometimes would wear a wooden skirt under there dress to make the round shape. They would also
wear corsets that they would tie super tight. These corsets would make their waist very small; because
men liked the skinny waist in a woman. Over the corsets and hooped skirts they would pull over a
dress. Some dresses may of been made out of lace, silk,or ruffles. Women would wear very humble
clothing. All the dresses were very out there they had very well stitching and hard work paid into it.

9. Taking a Look at the Earth s Biosphere
The Earth s biosphere is considered to be the most inclusive layer on the planet; simply put, the
biosphere is where life happens. What makes the biosphere so exceptional is the fact that there is no
record of life existing anywhere else in space. All of the organisms that inhibit the biosphere impact it
in some way. However, humans have the largest impact on the biosphere through the means of
industrialization, reproduction, and consumption. As with all of the other organisms inhibiting the
biosphere, humans have basic needs in order to thrive. We need habitats, protection, reproductive
success, and sustenance. However, unlike other organisms, we have proclivities that span beyond the
essential tools needed to survive. We have the unique gift of insight, and with it, the ability to innovate
beyond the parameters of any other species on the planet. From the use of fire to the invention of the
smartphone, there is a continuum of technological advances.
In today s industrialized societies, these technological conveniences have become vital in order for
one to compete for resources. With this dependency, comes a cost, and it threatens the very system
that supports life on earth. In North America, 700,000 tons of air pollution is released into the
atmosphere every day (Biology). This stems from the use of fuel burning transportation, product
manufacturing, and mining. There are two main classes of air pollution, particles and gases. The

10. Good vs. Evil
Good Vs. Evil
In Beowulf, the conflict between good and evil is the poem s main and most important aspect. The
poet makes it clear that good and evil doesn t exist as only opposites, but that both qualities are
present in everyone. Beowulf represents the ability to do good or to perform acts selflessly and in help
of others. Goodness is also showed throughout this epic as having the ability to cleanse evil. Even
though evil is presented by Grendel, Grendel s mother, and the dragon, who are filled with a desire to
act against people and ultimately destroy them, even pride, a human quality, is presented in Beowulf
as a sign that evil exists. This story might even be considered a classic because it mainly talks about
the old fashion ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
He often talked about his accomplishments saying, They had seen me bolstered in the blood of
enemies when I battled and bound five beasts, raided a troll nest and in the night sea slaughtered sea
brutes. (Beowulf 419 422), which shows how good can also be a bit proud. In the end, though, most of
the time good will always defeat evil but good won t always stay alive. For example, in the end of
Beowulf, although Grendel was killed by Beowulf as well as his mother, Beowulf still dies. In other
words, just because evil is defeated doesn t mean good will always live.
On a different but similar note, is Grendel s mother, who is seen as vengeful. Different, because she
isn t the same type of evil that Grendel is, but similar because she is still an opponent to both men and
the society of man at the time that Beowulf was written, or rather, spoken. Also, Grendel s mother is
tainted in the opposite way that Grendel is; while Grendel is given a humanistic point of view, people
try to dehumanize Grendel s mother. While she is indeed just as evil as Grendel was, she does not
represent the utter evil that man must fight to achieve immortality. She is a symbol of defiance of man,
but she can be seen as more of a neutral symbol. Grendel s mother doesn t attack Heorot because she
doesn t like it. She attacks it because Beowulf killed her only son, But now his mother had sallied

11. New York s Bestseller The Other Wes Moore Essay
New York s bestseller The other Wes Moore, by Wes Moore is a story of how two kids with similar
backgrounds including similar names ended up with different outcomes in life. The author Wes Moore
ended with a degree from Oxford University and an internship at the white house while the other Wes
More got sentenced to life in prison for the murder of an off duty police officer. The book goes into
detail on why they ended up so differently and it turns out that it could have been a number of life
changing events and choices. However Malcolm Gladwell who wrote the book Outliers, would argue
that it may have been a result of external factors that would contribute to the success of the author and
the eventual fall of the other Wes Moore. For the purpose of this paper we will address the author as
either Moore or the author Wes Moore and the other Wes Moore as Weston. Even though both Wes
Moore s started off with similar backgrounds, the difference between their mothers parenting styles
and the difference in educational opportunity s between the Wes Moore s made the difference in their
outcomes. In fact, Gladwell would argue that difference in the mothers cultural legacy, sense of
meaningful work, economic privilege) determine their parenting styles, which in made a difference in
the educational opportunities of their sons. Although both mothers struggle to keep their sons out of

12. Emily Dickinsons View On Religion
Everybody has a different view on religion and its existence. Emily Dickinson, an objective poet
acting as a detached observer, describes what she has seen or heard and brings her own reflections on
the things she has experienced. Objective poetry is impersonal, which allows readers to be open to
different interpretations; it allows the facts to represent themselves and not be impacted by the
individual values and predispositions of the poet. Dickinson s poem, Prayer is the Little Implement ,
exemplifies a true objective piece. Emily asks how someone could reach the heavens when God has
denied his presence. Because God hides himself from human presence, men fling their prayers. They
fling their despairs and request into God s ear, on the

14. Distinctively Visual Elements In The Shoe Horn Sonata
Composers breathe life into their characters experience with aspects of distinctively visual elements.
John Misto effec6tively does this in his play The Shoe Horn Sonata (TSHS), a remembrance for the
women imprisoned during WWII. The play recounts on live television about Bridie and Sheila s
untold grief and stories and their loss of innocence at a young age and the hopelessness they held.
Likewise, David Douglas Duncan s Korean war photograph has captured time to highlight fear and
hopelessness the victims of the war held. These aspects are done through the clever employment of
visual techniques and engaging dialogue and as a result of this, John Misto and David give life to the
characters experience. Distinctively visual elements employed by John highlights Sheila s recount of
the tragic she was involved in and how significantly she had been affected. Non diegetic sounds are
heard to set the mood and create tension and this effectively engages the audiences attention to what is
going to unfold; this lets John Misto bring Sheila s terror to life. Furthermore Sheila talks about the
gloves she had worn when she was leaving Singapore, always wear gloves, wherever you go... she
expresses this to be something a lady must have. The gloves symbolizes her innocence and purity that
she had at a young age and when she no longer had them, it meant she was no longer innocent, thus

Law of the Sea
The seas have long standing recognition as routes linking all parts of the world and as a treasure full of
resources. This has given significant rise to established rules. The Law of the Sea central principle is
that Land rules over the Sea. A state will have the right on the sea, until a certain distance, according
to the parameters of its land territory. This will be the territorial sea which forms part of a state s area
subject to its authority, and any further range will be the high sea. The high seas were not to be
appropriated. International law made the high seas one of its main principle. States have been
demanding to extend the perimeter of the sea around their coasts to get more of the seas under their
jurisdiction. Under these demands, developments in International law have brought about extended
zones known as contiguous zone, continental shelf, exclusive economic zone etc. The Law of the sea
will govern these characterised zones and see if a state should be entitled to such territorial sea
extensions. The change of perception of states towards the seas have led to each state having their own
principles which gave rise to clashing principles, this has led to conferences to find a solution to the

18. The Collapse Of Compassion Theory
The world of today has been a witness to countless menacing wars, violence, and tragedies, but the
amount of sympathy and compassion the people feel towards it has significantly decreased. In fact, it
is believed by many that capacity of compassion is limited and so the lack of consideration for other s
suffering is part of human nature. Psychologists such as C. Daryl Cameron and Keith Payne have
developed the collapse of compassion theory, described in the article, How to Increase Your
Compassion Bandwidth, that suggests that people are growing to become indifferent and less
empathetic towards major moments in history of inhumane behavior. The apathetic attitude
individuals have towards tragedies is not a phenomenon only seen in the recent years, but in fact can
be traced to about seventy years ago, in the midst of the Holocaust. The Holocaust was carried out by
Adolf Hitler and his Nazi reign, between 1933 and 1945, which brought upon the world a massive
genocide that almost killed the entire Jewish population of Europe. For nearly twelve years, Jewish
people were isolated from society with discriminative laws, thrown into crowded and unsanitary
ghettos, and then shipped into concentration camps where they met their deaths. The Jews were
endlessly slaughtered in a cruel manner, but yet hardly any people cried out for its injustice. The
behavior of the Nazis was condoned by most of the German people who supported its reign and even

Reviewing the Crash of 1929
There have been many terrifying crashes in the stock market, the most recent being the crash in 2007
2008, however, nothing compares to the devastation of 1929. It remains the worst stock market crash
in history. It wiped a generation of investors away from the stock market.
Most of us know that 1929 was bad, but in this article, let s get down to the facts and numbers and
know how bad it really was.
Before we look at any other aspect, let s first see the extent of damage that was done during the crash
of 1929.
The important numbers in the 1929 crash The Dow Jones average peaked on September 3, 1929, at
381.17 points. The crash started with a 13% fall on Black Monday, October 28, 1929, and continued
the next day on Black Tuesday, when the index tanked another 12%.
With intermittent rallies, the Dow continued to fall and had lost almost half its value by mid
November. Though the markets saw strong intermittent bear market rallies, the Dow hit its lowest
value of the 20th century on July 8, 1932, when the index closed at 41.22. That is a whopping 89.18%
fall in just under three years.
It took the markets another 25 years to cross the peak closing of September 3, 1929, which it did on
November 12, 1954.

The main objective of IT Service Management (ITSM) is to ensure that all business processes and

Technology Infrastructure Library) to meet the organizational goals. ITIL defines Incident
Management process to manage and restore the normal service operations from the disruptions

Organizations are concerned with the effective implementation of incident management since any
service incident could cause a huge loss and a setback to business continuity.
Organizations looking for quick wins have taken up ITSM and have not seen the positive outcomes of
its implementation as they are confused on how to implement it. This is due to the fact that ITIL doesn
t provide the guidelines of how to implement the management standards and it is up to a business how
they perceive it and implement as per their needs and requirements (Pollard Cater Steel 2009).
The main objective of this study is to provide a strategy for optimizing and improving the IT services
incident management. For the effective implementation of incident management process, reducing the
number of open incidents is one of the most advisable approach but has not quite been effectively
implemented by existing work. This research provides a methodology of systematically handling the
incidents addressed by the users to be handled by the respective IT support staff and to generate
reports for keeping a record of the open incidents which serve as a basis for the management to assess
the performance of the incident management tool, look for solutions of most frequently occurring
incidents and develop strategies to reduce the number of incidents.

So when the firm done correctly to identify fixed and variable cost, it can do CVP analysis correctly
and manager can used the correct CVP analysis to make decision making.
2. In graph Cost are in straight line
Assume that fixed cost no change in any of range. Variable Cost is proportional and parallel to the line
revenue. So in the reality cost of behaviour not remain constant. It mean when we do CVP analysis we
must assume a straight line (constants) so when do a calculation it easy to calculate the cost and make
analysis. For example if we see in graph the cost is curve line it hard to calculate the cost if the cost is
out of range from the graph. So that why we must assume in straight line so it easy to calculate and
identify the cost even it out of range in graph.
3. Price is fixed for every volume was purchase/selling ( selling price/direct material)
When buy a lot of item, item we buy was offering/make a discount. These make a problem to
determine contribution margin ratio. Example normally when we buy/sell a lot of item we can
receive/give discount. Event we know that it hard to calculate when price always changes base on the
quantity item of we buy/sell. So in order to make easy calculation we must make assumption fixed
price every volume was purchase and selling and ignore the cost that give effect the change in price
and volume.

Industrial revolution which caused wide spread poverty and unemployment in Britain, as well as the
demand for workers in the wool industry in Australia enticed more free settlers to Australia, followed
by the Gold rush in the 1850 s of which the largest group of immigrants were the Chinese. The
bringing in of Polynesian labourers to work in the sugar plantations of Queensland also contributed to

The number of international adoptions taking place in the United States is steadily increasing. Many

ready for the challenges of adopting a child from another country. Not only are the adoptive parents

A number of children when adopted come to the United States with nothing from their cultural pasts
and must face the anti immigrant sentiment that is prevalent in our society. Many adopted children are
mourning the loss of their cultural context in many ways that adoptive parents and practitioners are
not prepared to deal with.
Although the number of international adoptions are increasing in the United States there have been
few studies focusing on the adjustment, identity, and attachment of international adoptees. There is
very little research on adult adoptees and the ethnic/cultural socialization and identity developmental
process. According to Freidlander (1999), most of the available research considers self esteem or
adjustment of adopted children, not the process by which they begin forming an understanding and
acceptance of their identity.
This topic merits attention in the research field so this study proposes to understand the adoptive
experience of internationally adopted adults in terms of their identity development, attachment
experience, and adaptation to life in an American family. A qualitative interview approach will be used
while interviewing internationally adopted adults to understand the complex experience of adoption
and how one adapts to this experience. This study is developed in hopes to inform prospective
adoptive families and mental health practitioners of the experiences and challenges faced by

Unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) have become a quickly growing part of the aviation community
over the last five to ten years. More and more of these aircraft are flying in the National Airspace
System (NAS) with each passing year, without any set rules governing their operation. With the
growing population of UAS in the NAS, for military, civil, and commercial use, the need for
regulation is becoming increasingly obvious. How to regulate this type of aircraft is no simple task.
Taking into consideration the many factors of these aircraft such as size, purpose, who is using them,
and location of use, it is difficult to determine what regulation is required. That is the task that has
been set before the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). To determine what type of regulation is
needed to integrate and ensure the safe operation of UAS in the NAS since the skies that they share
are shared with manned aircraft. Integration of UAS into the NAS
Since the first flight of Orville and Wilbur Wright s aircraft at Kitty Hawk, the development of new
aircraft types and technology in these and existing aircraft has moved along at a quick and steady

3. What are the arguments for launching Precision as a) a niche product and b) a mainstream brand?
• Launching Precision as a niche product:
Niche positioning focuses on customers who care about the prevention of gum diseases. As such, it
could command a 15% price premium over Oral B and would be expected to capture 3% of the U.S.
toothbrush market by the end of the first year following its launch. Steinberg believed that with a
niche positioning, Precision retail sales would represent 3% volume share of the toothbrush market in
year 1 and 5% in year.
Under a niche positioning strategy, Steinberg decided that CP would establish a factory list price to the
trade of $2.13, a premium over Oral B regular and at parity with Oral B Indicator. If the company
decided to position the Precision toothbrush as a niche product many positive benefits would appear:
1. Precision toothbrush is more advanced and is characterized for its technological superiority over its
competitors. Because of that, Colgate Palmolive can be able to differentiate and promote something
new to the market.
2. Colgate Palmolive would be able to charge premium prices if targeting to customers who are
worried about gum diseases.
