Parent Recommendation Letter
The parent wrote a letter of recommendation for Jennifer Henard, who taught both of her daughters in kindergarten at Dodd Elementary School. The parent's oldest daughter loved Jennifer as her teacher and learned a great deal from her because Jennifer was not only an effective teacher but also kind and compassionate. The parent was so impressed that she requested Jennifer also teach her younger daughter, who also loved Jennifer as did the other children in the class. Jennifer made learning fun for kindergarteners while also making them feel accepted and loved.
Todorovs theory
Todorov's theory of narrative structure proposes that stories generally follow 5 stages: 1) an initial equilibrium is established, 2) an event disrupts this equilibrium, 3) the main character realizes the disruption, 4) attempts are made to fix the disruption, 5) the equilibrium is restored by the end of the story. The summaries then apply this theory to the plots of Toy Story, describing Woody losing his place as top toy to Buzz before they become friends, and Finding Nemo, where Nemo is captured before being rescued by his father Marlin with help from Dory.
El deporte de scuba en panamá
Scuba diving is a popular sport in Panama. Some of the top dive sites include the Pearl Islands, Coiba National Park, and Bocas del Toro. These areas feature warm water temperatures year-round, abundant marine life like sea turtles and sharks, and shipwrecks. Panama is considered one of the best dive destinations in Central America due to its diverse underwater landscapes and close proximity to both the Pacific and Caribbean oceans.

This document discusses neuroleptic drugs, which are used to treat mental illnesses like schizophrenia. Neuroleptics, also called antipsychotics, can be classified into different categories including phenothiazines, butyrophenones, and thioxanthenes. They work by blocking dopamine receptors in the brain. Neuroleptics are generally safe when used as prescribed but can cause side effects. Their benefits include improving mood and thought processes, while risks include producing side effects that mimic neurological diseases. Treatment involves using typical or atypical antipsychotics depending on the symptoms.
Enlightenment Philosophers
John Locke believed that individuals have natural rights to life, liberty, and property, and the right to change an oppressive government. Montesquieu proposed that the best form of government divides power into judicial, legislative, and executive branches to check political power. Voltaire advocated for freedom of thought, speech, and religion as well as separation of church and state. Rousseau and Wollstonecraft argued that government should be based on popular sovereignty and secure equal rights and justice for all, including extending rights to women through education and suffrage.
Corrections notes
The document summarizes the history and evolution of imprisonment and community-based sentencing in the United States. It notes that imprisonment became widespread in the last 200 years, replacing punishments like money payments and corporal punishment. Penitentiaries were introduced in the US in the 1800s with goals of labor, silence, and penitence. In the late 1800s, reformatories opened with aims of reforming prisoners and teaching them skills. By the 1900s, prisons were called correctional facilities and alternatives like parole and probation became popular in the 1960s partly due to their lower costs compared to imprisonment. From 1985 to 2004, the prison population in the US tripled largely due to stricter drug laws, and the US
Seminar intro
The document provides guidelines for organizing effective seminars, trainings, or workshops. It discusses choosing a topic and venue, creating invitations, deciding on refreshments, developing presentation materials, finalizing attendance, and setting up sign-in sheets and name tags. The key steps include preparing several weeks in advance, selecting an appropriate location, distributing invitations, planning for food, creating visual aids, getting an accurate headcount, and facilitating networking among participants. The guidelines are meant to help organizers properly plan and conduct informative seminar events.
Larry Sherman How Criminology Can Save the States from Bankruptcy
1) If criminal justice policy was based on evidence of cost-effectiveness, there would be less spending on prisons and more on police, resulting in fewer serious crimes and less total harm to society while also reducing threats of state bankruptcy.
2) Evidence shows prisons have unknown effects on deterrence and rehabilitation but waste resources by incarcerating many low-risk offenders, while policing high-crime areas and high-risk offenders and individuals can more cost-effectively reduce crime.
3) Adopting risk-based policies could make the criminal justice system more cost-effective by allocating prison, police, and probation/parole resources according to offenders' risks of committing serious or frequent crimes.

Enlightenment Philosophers
The Enlightenment period of the 17th and 18th centuries was characterized by a set of attitudes that questioned traditional institutions through rational criticism. Philosophers like Voltaire, Locke, and Rousseau promoted ideas of natural rights, consent of the governed, and religious tolerance through their writings. Their works influenced political reforms and inspired revolutions by promoting nationalism and the rights of individuals over absolute rule.
Enlightenment Philosophers
The Enlightenment philosophers Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, and Baron de Montesquieu influenced the founders of the United States with their social contract theory and ideas of limited government. Hobbes argued people formed governments to control human selfishness, while Locke said they did so to protect natural rights like life, liberty, and property. Montesquieu advocated for separating government powers into branches that check each other. These principles inspired the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution, which established a representative democracy with checks and balances among its three branches of government.

Elements of Crime and Justifications
There are two essential elements required for criminal liability: actus reus (criminal act) and mens rea (guilty mind or criminal intent). Defenses to a crime include excuses like insanity or involuntary intoxication, as well as justifications like duress or self-defense. Strict liability laws can find someone guilty without mens rea for acts that endanger the public.
Crime Unit
The document summarizes different types of crimes and crime statistics in the United States. It discusses property crime as the most common type but often underreported, and violent crime as the most publicized type usually involving known offenders. Business crime can be corporate or white collar crimes, while organized crime often refers to groups like the mafia. Crime statistics show that while rates have dropped, the US still has high violence, and crimes like homicide often involve handguns and younger victims. Crime in the US causes more harm than natural disasters.
Enlightenment
1. The Enlightenment was an intellectual movement that changed people's views on the world, challenging the power of the Church and forming the foundations of modern science.
2. Enlightenment thinkers like Locke, Montesquieu, and Rousseau influenced the American Founding Fathers and shaped the Declaration of Independence and Constitution.
3. Core Enlightenment ideas like natural rights, social contract theory, and separation of powers can be seen in the founding documents and principles of the United States.
The Enlightenment
The document outlines the timeline of major works and thinkers during the Enlightenment period from 1690 to 1795. It discusses how Enlightenment philosophers built upon the Scientific Revolution to apply reason to the study of human society and government. They criticized absolute monarchy and proposed reforms to promote individual freedom and rights. The two main views on government during this time came from Thomas Hobbes, who argued for a strong sovereign to maintain order, and John Locke, who believed people had natural rights to life, liberty, and property and governments derived power from the consent of the governed.
