Introduction The persistent spread of extremist violence throughout the world is an considerable alarm and concern today, especially because the force is largely connected with religion. For instance, the mass shootings in Orlando, Florida, which targeted people of a specific sexual orientation was associated with religious sentiments (Gopin, 1997). The shootings caused 49 deaths and 53 injuries, one of the worst mass shootings in the US. It has also been observed that motivated religious violence by Muslims and Boko Haram have affected both Christians and Muslims in West African countries. As such, religiously motivated violence has been a common feature in the past histories and also current realities in significant religions such as Islam, Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity, as well as other minor religions. The violence takes many different forms such as weapons, hate speech, or other kinds of violence attacks (Basedau, Pfeiffer and Vüllers, 2014). Religion has also been associated with hatred, attacks, and oppression against specific communities or groups of people. It is crucial to explore this topic indepth in order to unearth the history of religious conflict and violence since there is so much research which has provided a proper account of such conflicts. This paper will add to the available research on religiously-motivated violence, by exploring causes and origin religious conflict and violence, its impacts, as well as the way forward for peace to prevail. .

The persistent spread of extremist violence throughout the world is a considerable alarm
and concern today. This is mainly because the violence is mostly connected with religion. For
instance, the mass shootings in Orlando, Florida, which targeted people of a particular sexual

the worst mass shooting in the US. It has also been observed that religiously motivated violence
by Muslims and Boko Haram have affected both Christians and Muslims in West African

Buddhism, Christianity, as well as other minor religions. The violence takes many different
forms such as weapons, hate speech, or other kinds of violence attacks (Basedau, Pfeiffer &

specific communities or groups of people. As such, it is essential to explore this topic in-depth to
unearth the history of religious conflict and violence since there is no much research which has
provided a proper account of such conflicts. This paper will add to the available research on
religiously-motivated violence, by exploring causes and origin religious conflict and violence, its
impacts, as well as the way forward for peace to prevail.
Background information on religiously motivated violence in the world.
There has been a tremendous rise in religion-based violence in the past decades. Among
the instances in history is the jihad and authority struggle between the Shia and Sunni Islam from
the Middle East. There has also been persecution of Rohingya in Myanmar as well as the wars

between Muslims and Christians in Africa. A study carried out recently shows that there has been
an increased occurrence of religious-based violence related to harassing women, especially for
violation of their religious beliefs and practices (Selengut, 2017).
It is essential to realize that religious-based hostilities affect all religions in the world.
There has been increased killings and other kinds of violence across the globe as a result of the
religious hostilities even in nations that are not directly affected by the religious wars. For
instance, massive killings have been rampant in minor countries such as Iraq, Nigeria, Syria,
Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan, among others. Wars between Islam and Jewish religions have
also risen in Europe. Additionally, the Hindu religion is threatened by other.

Is Media Responsible for Rise of Islamophobia in America?
America is home to one of the most diverse Muslim inhabitants in the world. This includes people of nearly every cultural groups, country and school of thought. A significant proportion of Americans are of the opinion that Islam as a religion is incomparable with American values. Nathan Lean has stated that media plays a major role in the promotion of Islamophobia throughout the world. Reports have been observed where seven charitable foundations have spent 43 million dollars between 2001 to 2009 in order to support the spread of anti-Muslim rhetoric. Another factor was revealed which included 2010 Gallup poll win, which 43% of the Americans were, reported to feel a sense of prejudice against Muslims. Fox news has also been identified as the small component of Islamophobia in US media. Fox news has been found to retract false claims about Muslims. Various empirical evidences have been found to provide possible interactions between the latent Muslim feelings and media coverage.
However, since 2011, Muslims in the United States have been showing significant concern regarding extremism in the name of Islam across the world. Concurrently, majority are of the opinion that there is minimal support of extremism with Muslim community even though the general public differs (Spring 1,5). This has led to a rise in discernment and fear against Muslims in America. Such a social aversion and prejudice against Muslims in America has been gradually facilitating and continuing by vehement and uncivilized stereotypes exhibited in diverse forms of American media organization and political domains which instigate high level of prejudice, discrimination and exclusion of the Muslims. While some Americans believe Islamic religion promotes terrorism, this misconception is due to ignorance caused by media, but this could be solved by mandatory education about Islam in colleges.
The effect of media, chiefly mass news media as well as technology, in influencing Islamophobia has been increasing concern from the time of the 9/11 attacks. Several standpoints tend to problematize the way the media through numerous avenues related to news and film as well as nonfiction destructively depict, racialize and demonize Muslim-American identities. The impression of these edifices of Arabs and Muslims on unconstructive typecasts as well as events of marginalization amongst Muslim-American communities are apprehended in many academic domains. Considine in his study of Muslim portrayal in the United States during late 1980s and early 1990s have found that Muslims have been depicted negatively in news reporting since then. Moreover, majority of the narrations which mentioned Muslims to be intrinsically related to terrorism and war did not find sufficient evidence of more generalized negative prejudice. Howe.

Theories of Radicalization
Testing Theories of Radicalization in Polls of U.S.

Clark McCauley∗
Bryn Mawr College
Four national polls of Muslim Americans conducted between 2001 and 2007 were
reviewed to find items tapping possible sources of sympathy and justification for
jihadist violence: anti-Muslim discrimination, radical Islam, and economic and
political grievance. These items were correlated with items representing three
elements of the global-jihad frame: seeing the war on terrorism as a war on Islam
or “insincere,” justifying suicide attacks in defense of Islam, and favorable views
of Al Qaeda. The three elements of the global-jihad frame were no more than
weakly related to one another and had different predictors. Discussion suggests
that the U.S. “war of ideas” may need to target separately the different elements
of the global-jihad frame.
Attempts to understand terrorism usually begin with the terrorists, and a
sizeable literature has explored whether or how terrorists emerge from conditions
of poverty, alienation, extremist ideology, and political grievance (Blair, 2009;
Brown & Smith, 2009; Krueger, 2007; Sageman, 2004). But active terrorists are
only a tiny fraction of the base of supporters and sympathizers on which the
terrorists depend, just as active-service military are only a tiny fraction of the base
of national support for the military. In this article, I follow Tessler and Robbins
(2007) in moving the focus away from terrorists to the wider population of those
who sympathize with or justify terrorism.

Undoubtedly, religion is one of the main factors that increasingly contribute to the shaping of international relations. As it was in the European middle ages, religion and geopolitics have always had ties of one sort or another. Imperialism and nationalist doctrines have found purpose and justification in religious differences and, religious zealotry was functioned to be both cause and consequence of the concentration of state power and the rivalries among existing competitors. The involvement of numerous religious groups and movements in the political scene led the situation to be extremely complicated. The purpose of this article is to see to what extent religion as a soft power has a role in forming international politics. Also, to discuss the role the superpowers and regional powers play in dealing with the question of religious issues. With an argument that these issues including religious conflicts are led by international and regional powers which function these groups in a proxy war to be part of their rivalry overpower, and to achieve their national interests through their foreign policies at the cost of considerable environmental degradation and a massive death toll of people.week7assignment2reviewpaperpowerpointpresentation-12717908726025-phpapp02_rec...

Muslim World in Encountering the Challenges of Global Extremism and Terrorism
Extremism and terrorism are not new phenomena that humanity has to deal with. They have been there in the history of mankind ever since the human population started to increase on this planet. In the past, there have been despotic leaders, individuals, and groups of people who used extremism and terrorism as a means to exterminate others in order to hold onto power and exert their dominance. The researchers of this small-scale qualitative study critically analyzed what is happening to the Muslims and what needs to be done in encountering the challenges of global extremism and terrorism. The researchers took a non-partisan stand in analyzing terrorism in the aftermath of the 9/11 attack that shocked the US and the world at large. The crux of the discussion in this research was centered around on the issues as to why western media take a double standard in reporting terror attacks around the globe, why the oppressed and displaced people of the world resort to terrorism, are terrorists born or made, what lessons can be learned by countries that are faced with terror attacks and racial tensions from role-model countries that are successful in maintaining peace and harmony within their diverse population. Besides discussing the main issues, the researchers have put forward their idealism for world peace and on how the world should stand united in combatting the alarming rate of extremism and terror attacks that happen all over the world today.
Gendered Islamophobia hate crime against Muslim womenBarb
Gendered Islamophobia: hate crime against Muslim women
Barbara Perry*
Faculty of Social Science and Humanities, University of Ontario Institute of Technology,
Oshawa, ON, Canada
(Received 12 June 2012; accepted 27 June 2013)
Post 9/11, most western nations have seen dramatic increases in bias motivated
violence against Muslims and those perceived to be Muslim. Predicated on the long-
lived vilification of Muslims by the media and the state, such violence is a reactionary
reminder of Muslims’ outsider status. Interestingly, little attention has been paid to the
particular vulnerability of women and girls to anti-Muslim hate crime. This paper
begins such a dialogue.
Keywords: hate crime; Islamophobia; gendered violence
To name only the ethnic hatred is to make gender hatred invisible. It names the gender violence
as something different from hatred. It normalizes the violence against women by not naming it.
This invisibility of violence toward women sustains it. (Zillah Eisenstein, 2006, p. 26)
Generally, women are not particularly vulnerable to hate crime. Just as the majority of
perpetrators are male, so too are the majority of victims. However, this is not the case
within the Muslim community. There, women and girls appear to be extremely vulnerable
to violence motivated by their status as Muslims, but especially as Muslim women. In
part, this is due to the fact that those who are covered, in particular, are readily
identifiable. Yet it also has to do with the controlling images of Muslims, women, and
Muslim women that render the latter especially attractive and available targets.
To understand the hate crime experienced by Muslim women, it is necessary to
understand the multiple subject positions they occupy, with particular attention to their
cultural identities and their gender. Thus, in what follows, I explore first, bias motivated
violence against Muslims and those perceived to be Muslims, and secondly, gendered
violence against women. This allows us, then, to move on to discuss the intersectionality of
religion, race, and gender which makes women vulnerable to complex patterns of bias
motivated violence. The patterns that are described here tend to be replicated across western
nations, such as the UK, Australia, Canada and the US. While the emphasis here is largely
on America, I also draw on emerging scholarship across other western nations as well.
Motive forces: anti-Muslim imaging
Prior to the terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington DC in 2001, Muslims
were not generally recognized as frequent targets of racially or religiously motivated

Religious fundamentalism and out-group hostility among Muslims and Christians in Western Europe
Islamic fundamentalism, gender and new hermeneutics
Control of women has been worldwide one of the most common subjects of fundamentalisms. Claiming allegiance to their sacred text, interpretative authority (monopoly of interpretation) and legitimacy for its implementation, the fundamentalists in their will to power deny to women equal conditions to those ones offered to men, claiming a hierarchical distinction between men and women in the social order as well as an ontological distinction between them, being men considered naturally superior to women. This article aims to clarify the relationship between Islamic fundamentalism and the domination of women and argue about the importance of the emerging feminist Hermeneutics in the context of Islam for the confrontation of female subjugation.

Faith based interventions in the reintegration of displaced boko haram victim...Pastor Bayo Afolaranmi, MThRE, MPhil
Boko Haram insurgency has affected many people in the northeastern part of Nigeria. Many of these victims have migrated to other parts of the country. While some of these people become internally displaced persons (IDPs) in IDP centres or camps, some prefer to migrate to, and live among their ancestral relatives. The latter are referred to as migrated displaced persons. Many faith-based organizations especially churches of the Nigerian Baptist Convention have been making efforts to transform the lives of these displaced people and reintegrate them into the society. The paper
reviews some related themes such as terrorism and religious violence, Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria, jihad, trauma,
internally displaced persons, Christian theological bases for humanitarianism, Baptist policy/theological stands on
humanitarianism, and religious responses to crisis in transforming lives of displaced people from conflict-affected areas. The paper ends with some recommendations for faith-based organizations and the Nigerian government.Issues Identify at least seven issues you see in the case1..docx

reminder of Muslims’ outsider status. Interestingly, little attention has been paid to the
particular vulnerability of women and girls to anti-Muslim hate crime. This paper
begins such a dialogue.
Keywords: hate crime; Islamophobia; gendered violence
To name only the ethnic hatred is to make gender hatred invisible. It names the gender violence
as something different from hatred. It normalizes the violence against women by not naming it.
This invisibility of violence toward women sustains it. (Zillah Eisenstein, 2006, p. 26)
Generally, women are not particularly vulnerable to hate crime. Just as the majority of
perpetrators are male, so too are the majority of victims. However, this is not the case
within the Muslim community. There, women and girls appear to be extremely vulnerable
to violence motivated by their status as Muslims, but especially as Muslim women. In
part, this is due to the fact that those who are covered, in particular, are readily
identifiable. Yet it also has to do with the controlling images of Muslims, women, and
Muslim women that render the latter especially attractive and available targets.
To understand the hate crime experienced by Muslim women, it is necessary to
understand the multiple subject positions they occupy, with particular attention to their
cultural identities and their gender. Thus, in what follows, I explore first, bias motivated
violence against Muslims and those perceived to be Muslims, and secondly, gendered
violence against women. This allows us, then, to move on to discuss the intersectionality of
religion, race, and gender which makes women vulnerable to complex patterns of bias
motivated violence. The patterns that are described here tend to be replicated across western
nations, such as the UK, Australia, Canada and the US. While the emphasis here is largely
on America, I also draw on emerging scholarship across other western nations as well.
Motive forces: anti-Muslim imaging
Prior to the terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington DC in 2001, Muslims
were not generally recognized as frequent targets of racially or religiously motivated

Religious fundamentalism and out-group hostility among Muslims and Christians in Western Europe
Islamic fundamentalism, gender and new hermeneutics
Control of women has been worldwide one of the most common subjects of fundamentalisms. Claiming allegiance to their sacred text, interpretative authority (monopoly of interpretation) and legitimacy for its implementation, the fundamentalists in their will to power deny to women equal conditions to those ones offered to men, claiming a hierarchical distinction between men and women in the social order as well as an ontological distinction between them, being men considered naturally superior to women. This article aims to clarify the relationship between Islamic fundamentalism and the domination of women and argue about the importance of the emerging feminist Hermeneutics in the context of Islam for the confrontation of female subjugation.

Faith based interventions in the reintegration of displaced boko haram victim...Pastor Bayo Afolaranmi, MThRE, MPhil
Boko Haram insurgency has affected many people in the northeastern part of Nigeria. Many of these victims have migrated to other parts of the country. While some of these people become internally displaced persons (IDPs) in IDP centres or camps, some prefer to migrate to, and live among their ancestral relatives. The latter are referred to as migrated displaced persons. Many faith-based organizations especially churches of the Nigerian Baptist Convention have been making efforts to transform the lives of these displaced people and reintegrate them into the society. The paper
reviews some related themes such as terrorism and religious violence, Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria, jihad, trauma,
internally displaced persons, Christian theological bases for humanitarianism, Baptist policy/theological stands on
humanitarianism, and religious responses to crisis in transforming lives of displaced people from conflict-affected areas. The paper ends with some recommendations for faith-based organizations and the Nigerian government.Similar to IntroductionThe persistent spread of extremist violence throug.docx (20)

Materials challenges for
nuclear systems
The safe and economical operation of any nuclear power system relies
to a great extent, on the success of the fuel and the materials of
construction. During the lifetime of a nuclear power system which
currently can be as long as 60 years, the materials are subject to high
temperature, a corrosive environment, and damage from high-energy
particles released during fission. The fuel which provides the power for
the reactor has a much shorter life but is subject to the same types of
harsh environments. This article reviews the environments in which fuels
and materials from current and proposed nuclear systems operate and
then describes how the creation of the Advanced Test Reactor National
Scientific User Facility is allowing researchers from across the United
States to test their ideas for improved fuels and materials.

Successful operation of current light water reactors and
implementation of advanced nuclear energy systems is strongly
dependent on the performance of fuels and materials. A typical
Light Water Reactor (LWR) contains numerous types of materials
(Fig. 1) that must all perform successfully. A majority of the
LWRs in the U.S. are extending their operating licenses from a 40
year period to a 60 year period, with initial discussions about 80
year lifetimes now underway. Many proposed advanced systems
(also known as Generation IV systems) anticipate operation at
temperatures and radiation exposures that are beyond current
nuclear industry experience, as well as most previous experience
with developmental systems1-7.
Table 1 summarizes the expected environments during normal
operation for the six Generation IV systems. For comparison, the
operating conditions for a Pressurized Water Reactor (a type of light
water reactor) are also listed. The Generation IV systems are expected
to operate at higher temperatures, to higher radiation doses, at
higher pressures, and in some cases with coolants that present more
challenging corrosion problems than current LWRs. Generation IV
systems are expected to operate for at least 60 years.

Extending the McCumber Cube
to Model Network Defense
By Sean M. Price – ISSA member Northern Virginia, USA chapter
This article proposes an extension to the McCumber
Cube information security model to determine the best
countermeasures to achieve a desired security goal.
Confidentiality, integrity, and availability are the se-curity services of a system. In other words they are the security goals of system defense, intangible at-
tributes� providing assurances for the information protected.
Each service is realized when the appropriate countermea-
sures for a given information state are in place. But, it is not
enough to select countermeasures ad hoc. Countermeasures
should be selected to defend a system and its information
against specific types of attacks. When attacks against partic-
ular information states are considered, the necessary coun-
termeasures can be selected to achieve the desired security
service or goal. This article proposes an extension to the Mc-
Cumber Cube information security model as a way for the
security practitioner to consider the best countermeasures to
achieve the desired security goal.
Security models
Models are useful tools to help understand complex topics. A
well-developed model can often be represented graphically,
allowing a deeper understanding of the relationships of the
components that make the whole. A formal security model
is broadly applicable and rigorously developed using formal
methods.2 In contrast, an informal model is considered lack-
ing one or both of these qualities. There are a variety of in-
formal models in the information security world which are
regularly used by security practitioners to understand basic
information and concepts.
� Security goals often lack explicit definitions and are difficult to quantify. They are
usually based on policies with broad interpretations and tend to be qualitative. It is
true that security goals emerge from the confluence of information states and coun-
termeasures which have measurable attributes. But, the subjective nature of security
goals combined with informal modeling characterizes their attributes as intangible.
2 P. T. Devanbu and S. Stubblebine, “Software Engineering for Security: A Roadmap,”
Proceedings of the Conference on The Future of Software Engineering (2000), 227-239.
One such informal model is the generally accepted risk as-
sessment framework. This model is used to assess risk by
estimating asset values, vulnerabilities, threats with their
likelihood of exploiting a vulnerability, and losses. Figure �
illustrates this model. Note that this commonly used model
requires a substantial amount of estimating on the part of
the risk assessment participants. This is problematic when
reliable estimates cannot be obtained. Another problem with
this model is that it does not guide th.

• When to find threats
• Playing chess
• How to approach software
• Tracking threats and assumptions
• Customer/vendor
• The API threat model
• Reading: Chapter 7
When to Find Threats
• Start at the beginning of your project
– Create a model of what you’re building
– Do a first pass for threats
• Dig deep as you work through features
– Think about how threats apply to your mitigations
• Check your design & model matches as you
get close to shipping
Attackers Respond to Your Defenses
Playing Chess
• The ideal attacker will follow the road you
defend
– Ideal attackers are like spherical cows — they’re a
useful model for some things
• Real attackers will go around your defenses
• Your defenses need to be broad and deep
“Orders of Mitigation”
Order Threat Mitigation
1st Window smashing Reinforced glass
2nd Window smashing Alarm
3rd Cut alarm wire Heartbeat signal
4th Fake heartbeat Cryptographic signal integrity
By Example:
• Thus window smashing is a first order threat, cutting
alarm wire, a third-order threat
• Easy to get stuck arguing about orders
• Are both stronger glass & alarms 1st order
mitigations? (Who cares?!)
• Focus on the concept of interplay between
mitigations & further attacks
How to Approach Software
• Depth first
– The most fun and “instinctual”
– Keep following threats to see where they go
– Can be useful skill development, promoting “flow”
• Breadth first
– The most conservative use of time
• Best when time is limited
– Most likely to result in good coverage
Tracking Threats and Assumptions
• There are an infinite number of ways to
structure this
• Use the one that works reliably for you
• (Hope doesn’t work reliably)

Is Texas so conservative- (at least for the time being)- as many pun.docx
Is Texas so conservative- (at least for the time being)- as many pundits and observers claim? Or is that just an opinion not supported by analysis and facts? Not only does Texas vote Republican in many elections but has done so for many years. It is also the birthplace of the so-called Tea Party movement and of Ron Paul's campaigns for president. Texas also appears to espouse conservative approaches to government and to issues. You will need to define in a concrete and operational way what conservative means as conservative is more than voting behavior or party affiliation.
Texas is the 2nd largest state in population compared to California and.like California made up of many differing migrant and immigrant groups. Texas like California was also part of Northern Mexico. but Texas is very, very different from California in voting behavior and positions on social issues. Why? Texas and California are good comparisons or are they? Provide explanations of the differences and similarities in this ideological context
Texas was once "Democratic" but even that was not really the case in terms of either past or current Democratic ideals and goals but a historic reaction to the consequences of the civil war and the fact that Texas was on the losing side in that war and of the attempt to defend agrarian interests in the form of slavery.. Being Democratic from post civil war to the middle of the 20th century in part meant for decades being in favor of inequality for minorities and defenders in spirit, if not in fact, of slavery.net
So Texas was never "Democratic" and never a more liberal interpretation of reality but a reflection of conservative thought and a particular view of individualistic man.
Is Texas conservative and why? ( you will need a social, cultural, historical and economic analysis here
with supporting evidence)?
? Need much more than opinions here.

THE FIGHT TO FILL VACANT COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE SPACE IN RECENT YEARS
HAS FORCED REAL ESTATE OWNERS AND MANAGERS TO CONSIDER NEW USES

Ochenkowski, managing director
for Jones Lang LaSalle and the com-
mercial real estate firm’s director of
global risk management in Chicago.
“But property owners and manag-
ers have been very creative in how
to use their existing facilities.”
Traditional retail stores have been
transformed into everything from
medical office space and churches
to fitness centers and breweries. In
addition, special events and pop-
up stores are more commonplace;
traditional office spaces have been
converted to daycare centers; in-
dustrial warehouses are being used
as practice facilities for youth base-
ball teams; and the list goes on.
“From a risk management per-
spective, these new uses can bring
new challenges,” Ochenkowski said.
“However, it is the primary goal
of the risk manager to support the
business, which means we need to
be more creative in the way we deal
with these risks.”

The risks associated with new-use tenants are as varied as the tenants them-
selves.
First and foremost, certain tenants could present additional life safety
risks, said Jeffrey Shearman, a Pittsburgh-based senior risk engineering con-
sultant and real estate industry practice leader for commercial insurance
provider, Zurich.
For example, restaurant tenants create increased exposure to fire; church
and/or educational institutions might spur egress concerns because they en-
courage large gatherings in spaces formerly used for different occupancy;
and hazardous waste can be a risk with some medical tenants.
“You have to recognize that certain types of work are going to create cer-
tain types of hazards,” Shearman said.
Beyond life safety risks, certain tenants might be more susceptible than
previous tenants to codes and regulations imposed by state or federal laws,
such as licensing regulations for daycares or American Disabilities Act re-
quirements for medical tenants, said Pat Pollan, CPM, principal at Pollan
Hausman Real Estate Services in Houston.
New-use tenant risks don’t stop there: financial risks also exist. Replac-
ing a unique tenant with a similar occupant after the lease expires can be
difficult—a particular concern if a lot of money was spent customizing the
space for an alternative use.
“It’s not just the risk of liability, it’s the risk of the tenant going out of busi-
ness and losing any money you put into the tenant, or its space, .

The Rise of the Republican Party
The Republican Party was formed due to a split in the Whig Party. The anti-slavery
“Conscience Whigs” split from the pro-slavery “Cotton Whigs”. Some anti-slavery Whigs joined
the American “Know-Nothing” Party, while the remainder joined with independent Democrats
and Free-Soilers to form a new party, the Republicans. The initial members stood for one
principle: the exclusion of slavery from the western territories (Shi, p. 462). Knowing the
Republicans ideology, we will look at how the events leading up to the Kansas-Nebraska Act led
to greater political division that eventually caused the formation of the Republican Party and it’s
rise to the presidency in 1860.
In the 1850’s, America was becoming increasingly divided between those for and against
slavery. The Compromise of 1850 had temporarily appeased both sides by admitting California
as a free state, allowing no slavery restrictions in New Mexico and Utah, paying Texas,
abolishing slave trade but no slavery in the District of Columbia, establishing the Fugitive Slave
Act, and denying congress authority to interfere with interstate slave trade (Shi, p. 457). This
Fugitive Slave Act was highly contested, although very few slaves were returned to the south
under this Act. In fact, it ended up uniting anti-slavery people, more than aiding the South. It was
during this time that Uncle Tom’s Cabin was written, selling more than a million copies
worldwide and detailing the harsh brutality of slavery (Shi, p. 460-461).
In the mid-1850’s, the Kansas-Nebraska Act was passed. The main reason for it was to the
settle the vast territory west of Missouri and Iowa, and to create a transcontinental railroad to
capitalize on Asian markets and goods. New territories brought up questions of whether slavery
would be allowed, with many supporting “popular sovereignty” where voters chose whether they
would have slavery or not. The issue here was that the 1820 Missouri Compromise had said there
would be no new slaver.

Investigative Statement AnalysisInitial statement given by Ted K.docx
Investigative Statement Analysis
Initial statement given by Ted Kennedy in reference to the accident that occurred on July 18, 1969 in Chappaquiddick, Massachusetts.
Date:
October 30, 2007
Analyst Comments:
Narrative Balance: The Prologue begins with sentence #1 and ends with sentence #3. The Central Issue begins with sentence #4 and ends with sentence #9. The Epilogue begins with sentence #10 and ends with sentence #14. Thus the breakdown is:
Prologue = 3 sentences
Central Issue = 6 sentences
Epilogue = 5 sentences
The narrative is somewhat unbalanced due to the short Prologue and thus can be considered to be possibly deceptive on its face. It is not unbalanced enough to say this conclusively.
Mean Length of Unit:
The narrative has 14 sentences and 237 words, thus giving a MLU of 16.9 rounded to 17. Thus any sentences 23 words or longer and any sentences 11 words or less can be considered deceptive on their face.
Structure of Analysis:
The actual sentences from the narrative are in bold italicized type. After each sentence are the number of words in the sentence, whether or not it is deceptive on its face, and the analyst’s comments. All of these will be in normal type.
1.
On July 18th, 1969, at approximately 11:15 P.M. in Chappaquiddick, Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts, I was driving my car on Main Street on my way to get the ferry back to Edgartown.
30 words – Deceptive on its face. There is no mention of the passenger in this sentence. All of the pronouns are singular. It is “my car” “on my way”, etc. When the passenger is mentioned later, it is almost an afterthought. The deception in this sentence may be the last part of the sentence where he relates why he was driving the car. He very well may have been driving for some reason other than to get the ferry. This would be an area to be further explored in an interview.
2.
I was unfamiliar with the road and turned right onto Dike Road, instead of bearing hard left on Main Street.
20 words. “I was unfamiliar with the road” is an explanatory phrase telling us why he ended up on Dike Road. The phrase “instead of bearing hard left on Main Street” is a strange way of phrasing. Most people would say something like “instead of staying on Main Street.”
3.
After proceeding for approximately one-half mile on Dike Road I descended a hill and came upon a narrow bridge.
20 words. There is nothing particularly deceptive about this sentence. The phrasing of the sentence is very formal. The phrasing is almost like a police type report or a legal/lawyer way of phrasing. It also appears that the phrase “came upon a narrow bridge” is almost a passive way of phrasing that indicates he was taken by surprise and had no control over what he was doing.
4.
The car went off the side of the bridge.
9 words – This sentence is deceptive on its face. This is the very first sentence of the Central Issue. It is interesting to note that four of the six s.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

IntroductionThe persistent spread of extremist violence throug.docx
- 1. Introduction The persistent spread of extremist violence throughout the world is an considerable alarm and concern today, especially because the force is largely connected with religion. For instance, the mass shootings in Orlando, Florida, which targeted people of a specific sexual orientation was associated with religious sentiments (Gopin, 1997). The shootings caused 49 deaths and 53 injuries, one of the worst mass shootings in the US. It has also been observed that motivated religious violence by Muslims and Boko Haram have affected both Christians and Muslims in West African countries. As such, religiously motivated violence has been a common feature in the past histories and also current realities in significant religions such as Islam, Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity, as well as other minor religions. The violence takes many different forms such as weapons, hate speech, or other kinds of violence attacks (Basedau, Pfeiffer and Vüllers, 2014). Religion has also been associated with hatred, attacks, and oppression against specific communities or groups of people. It is crucial to explore this topic indepth in order to unearth the history of religious conflict and violence since there is so much research which has provided a proper account of such conflicts. This paper will add to the available research on religiously-motivated violence, by exploring causes and origin religious conflict and violence, its impacts, as well as the way forward for peace to prevail.
