2. The Wisdom of Silicon Valley
This is, very broadly, Silicon Valley s take on deregulation, or: heterarchy over hierarchy. Distributed
networks that auto match people for commerce/socializing is better than hierarchy that uses
command+control to influence/restrict decisions. As I wrote this, I wanted to add a counterexample,
exception to a rule, or other clarification many times over. This email is me portraying what I think is
the prevailing, semi unexamined wisdom of Silicon Valley.
Most of Silicon Valley wants deregulation because they have seen regulation fail and deregulation
succeed. Wall Street is heavily regulated and heavily subsidized. Wall Street is not capitalism to them.
Wall Street is crony capitalism: When shit goes bad, you get government money. When shit goes well,
you get all the money! You spend all your money to rig the rules so you get more money, which you
use to rig the rules, etc.
Silicon Valley redeems capitalism from Wall Street. If you succeed, you succeed and keep the money
(mostly). If you fail, the company goes under. You can try again, but you don t get bailed out.
Crucially, there is a healthy ecosystem, nobody gets too large and nobody is too small, at least within
SV; There are marginalized people just down the street in the mission that aren t in silicon valley.
Nobody gets too large because then they can t innovate and start to fail: Sun, Digital, HP, AOL, etc.

Endogenous Factors
Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada (TMMC) growth has meant new opportunities for Canadian
suppliers and has helped create new jobs across Canada. For example to support the launch of the first
Lexus built outside Japan, there have been new suppliers, built plants in communities as well as the
expansion of the suppliers base already there before TMMC moved into Canada. Additionally because
of the lower Canadian dollar compared to the US Dollar, Canadian plants have shown two areas of
high performance, which are quality and high productivity with the third point being cost
competiveness in the corporate income tax rate.
Additionally flexibility, which is very important to Toyota?s Total Production (TPS), does not change
volume by changing of plant layout but increases flexibility in overtime working and general
manpower. This flexibility gives employees the ability to work about 48 hours a week if needed to
meet demands of customers, (Smith, 2005).
Exogenous factors
The group determined that there are factors beyond its control such as material cost and labor, location

5. Socio Economic Aspects Of Small Scale Farming Farmers
CHAPTER 2 2 LITERATURE REVIEW 2.1 SOCIO ECONOMIC ASPECTS OF SMALL SCALE
LIVESTOCK FARMERS The research and development community faces the challenge of sustaining
livestock productivity in order both to improve rural livelihoods and secure environmental
sustainability in the developing countries. Current understanding of livestock productivity is
incomplete and, hence, the need to update existing knowledge and to assess the role of livestock
farmers in bringing about a significant improvement to their livelihoods. In addition, there is a need to
pay more attention to the relative contributions of livestock farmers to the different sources of their
livelihood and the way in which these vary between households, the extent to which people are ...

Smallholder livestock keepers are characterised by the following: They tend to operate with limited
resources relative to other producers in the sector, They have low levels of formal education and
training and they keep their animals on communal, rather than private, land or they may be landless.
Smallholder livestock keeping is usually a family enterprise that practises either subsistence
production or a mix of subsistence and commercial production. The family is the major source of
labour, and livestock production is often the main source of income. They have limited access to input
and output to markets and to services and credit with most of their market interaction taking place in
informal local markets, for which they produce local or traditional products. They routinely face high
transaction costs in respect of securing quality inputs and gaining market recognition for quality
outputs (FAO, 2009a). Smallholder livestock keepers tend not to purchase production inputs and the
majority of these inputs come from the farm itself or from local grazing land as part of a closed
nutrient cycle. These smallholder livestock keepers operate at the lower end of the production curve,
where small additional inputs lead to substantial increases in productivity (FAO, 2009a).

6. Julian Of Norwich And The Church
Little is known about Julian of Norwich. She does, however, state that in May 1373, at the age of 30,
she became gravely ill and on the brink of death. It was during this illness God granted her a series of
16 visions that were rooted in a vivid awareness of Christ s passion. These visions were later recorded
in two texts, which are commonly known as the Short Text and the Long Text or as A Vision and A
Revelation. The former can be dated to 1370 80 and the later composed in 1390 1400. To understand
Julian and her theological account of her visions it is important to recognize the state of the church
during this era as well as its probable influence this had on her life and works. In the 13th century the
church was very much in the midst of a tension between the church defined as ecclesiastical hierarchy
and the church defined as a community of believers. That is to say that there was a growing gap
between the church s forms and formulas and the beliefs of its members. In broad terms, Christianity
tended to become more and more clerical whereas lay society tended to become more religious which
generated an increase in the number of spiritual initiatives. Also during this time there was great
anxiety amongst lay people over issues of sin, death, and a desire for security of the soul. This was
perhaps the most common and burdensome anxiety of the Middle Ages. The doctrine of purgatory,
however effective it may have been in providing consolation and hope it also caused great

10. Property Crime And Property Crimes
A crime occurs when someone breaks the law by an overt act, omission or neglect that can result in
punishment. A person who has violated a law, or has breached a rule, is said to have committed a
criminal offense.
There are two main categories of crime: property crime and violent crime:
PROPERTY CRIMES
A property crime is committed when someone damages, destroys or steals someone else s property,
such as stealing a car or vandalizing a building.
Property crimes are by far the most commonly committed crime in the United States.
VIOLENT CRIMES
A violent crime occurs when someone harms, attempts to harm, threatens to harm or even conspires to
harm someone else. Violent crimes are offenses which involve force or threat of force, such as rape,
robbery or homicide.
Some crimes can be both property crimes and violent at the same time, for example carjacking
someone s vehicle at gunpoint or robbing a convenience store with a handgun.
OMISSION CAN BE A CRIME
But there are also crimes that are neither violent nor involve property damage. Running a stop sign is a
crime, because it puts the public in danger, even though no one is injured and no property is damaged.
If the law is not obeyed, there could be injury and damage.
Some crimes can involve no action at all, but rather inaction. Withholding medication or neglecting
someone who needs medical care or attention can be considered a crime.

In 1990, Alyeska (Exxon and BP partnership) had legal documents leaked to the media discussing
failure to contain spills which caused an undercover investigation to find the source of the leaked
documents. After a seven month investigation nothing was found on the primary suspect Chuck
Hamel, a congressional aid and oil broker for Alexandria, VA. Shortly after British Petroleum
contractor, Doyon Drilling pleaded guilty to federal violation of the Clean Water Act by dumping
hazardous materials down oil well shafts on the North Slope between years of 1993 to 1995. British
Petroleum was convicted of insufficient reporting of the dumping as soon as they found out and was
fined $500,000, placed on five years probation million. British Petroleum pleaded guilty in federal
court in violation of another Clean Water Act. A second spill was discovered and upon investigation
the pipeline was riddled with corrosion. This occurred because British Petroleum was trying to cut
cost maintaining an aging oil field knowing that it would give out at any time. This crime cost British
Petroleum $20 million in fines and restitution and three more years of probation. As a result of the

America during the nineteenth century saw a rise of the modern middle class. With this came dramatic
changes in family dynamics. It can be seen that most middle class American families remained quite
patriarchal throughout the 1900s, however, it was women not their husbands who actually controlled
the homes and tended for life at home. Due to this, I believe that the advertisement targeted household
women. 2. Why did Singer choose the slogan All the nations Use Singer Sewing Machines ? What
point is the company trying to make. After the 1880s, a rise in immigration could be seen from Eastern

assassination of Franz Ferdinand, the Austrian Archduke during the time of 1914, sparked off an
already existing conflict between Austria and Serbia. The force of Nationalism influenced this conflict
between Serbia and Austria due to the nationalistic views of the Serbian people. The conflict that
occurred on the 28th June 1914 was the assassination of the Austrian Archduke, Franz Ferdinand.

The Schlieffen Plan was designed to give Germany dominance. The plan was for German armies to
travel through Belgium to France, and defeat France. Then further moving on to Russia to defeat them
before they had fully mobilised. Unfortunately, Germany could not reach Russia in time, as RUssia
started to mobilise too quickly. Although the assassination occurred at the beginning of World War
One, it was only an event which sparked off from other conflicts influenced by Nationalism. These
conflicts included the First Moroccan Crisis 1906, the Agadir Incident 1911 12 and the naval arms
race between Britain and Germany. The conflicts between Serbia and Austria, and previous other
conflicts which led up to World War One were predominantly caused by the force of Nationalism.
Serbian nationalistic values impacted the way of life for Serbian people. An example of this is Gavrilo
Princip. Nationalism influeced him to join the Black Hand and consequently assassinate the Archduke
of Austria. His love and loyalty for Serbia caused him to murder for the greater good of his country.
The Serbian extreme nationalistic views were produced mainly because of the different rules over the
Slav empirres. The people of these states felt that they had to be true to their state and not the empire
they belonged in. This caused much unrest between these states. Nationalism changed the lives of
people in Europe greatly.

Herpes is one of the common of more than 30 different sexually transmitted diseases (STD s) in

simplex virus type 1 (HSV 1) and herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV 2). Both of which are very easily
caught, have similar symptoms, and can occur on different parts of the body. Even though it is most
common to see the virus HSV 1 appear as oral herpes and to see the virus HSV 2 appear as genital
herpes.

form of herpes is oral herpes and usually shows up on the lips or inside of the mouth as cold sores or

Very severe outbreaks may have symptoms that include swollen and tender lymph glands in the groin,
throat, or under the arms, and even flu like feelings such as fever, chills, headache, and a general run
down feeling.
The spread of herpes may be attributed to a variety of activities ranging from touching and kissing to
more intimate activities such as vaginal, anal, or oral intercourse. The time when the virus is most
likely to be spread is when the sores, such as cold sores or fever blisters, are open and weeping, during
this time the virus may be spread from one partner to another or from one part of the body to another.
Although the chance of getting genital herpes from an infected partner whom has no symptoms are
only about 10 out of every hundred or 10 percent. It is unlikely, however, that contact with toilet seats,
moist towels or similar objects spread herpes. The most commonly infected areas are moist areas of
the mouth, anus, vulva, vagina, penis, or the eyes.
Even though herpes in many cases is easily spread between two individuals, it is definitely possible to
prevent the spreading of herpes to others. There are usually early warning signs before a breakout
occurs such as tingling, burning, and itching where sores were before. These warning signs may start a
few hours or even a day before the sores flare up. At first sight of any warning signs, all sexual contact

15. Arguments Against Abortion
Introduction Although, currently legalized, abortion continues to be a burdening ethical issue in
America. From 1973 to 2011 approximately 53 million legal abortions were performed in the United
States (Procon.org, 2015, p.1). Pro Choice supporters hail an abortion is a woman s choice and a
protected personal right that should not be limited by governmental or religious authority (Procon.org,
2015, p.1). However, Pro Life supporters contend that a human life begins at the very moment of
conception and thus an abortion is the immoral killing of an innocent human being (Procon.org, 2015,
p.1). Thus, there are various arguments to be considered on both sides.

Pro Life supporters insist that a child is considered a human being at the very moment of conception.
Thus, abortion is murder and is unethical because the right to live was stripped from the child. A child
can be aborted up to 24 weeks of life and in some states later (Procon.org, 2015, p.1). Furthermore, a
fetus does feel pain during the abortion procedure because by eight weeks the most primitive response
to pain, the spinal reflex, is developed (Procon.org, 2015, p.1). Moreover, the psychological affects of
an abortion can be overwhelming such as increased depression and anxiety (Procon.org, 2015, p.1). A
2002 peer reviewed study published by the Southern Medical Journal... found that women who
aborted were 154% more likely to commit suicide than women who carried to term (Procon.org, 2015,
p.1). Pro Life supporters believe women must not be able to use an abortion as a means of
contraception. If one becomes pregnant, one must be responsible for the child they have brought to the
world. Thousands of families desire to adopt children, thus abortion significantly reduces the number
of adoptable babies (Procon.org, 2015, p.1). Lastly, abortion promotes a culture in which human life is
disposable and it is acceptable to rid of a life that inconveniences you (Procon.org, 2015,

And to grasp how our systems work, I needed to have a deeper understanding of what they are made
of, which is what biochemistry is all about the chemistry of life. My interest in the human body started
in fourth grade when I first learned about anatomy and the body systems. Until this day, I haven t
forgotten the names of the bones in the skeletal system. When I volunteered to translate and help out
in a Medical Mission last summer in the Philippines, my interest in medicine grew. I knew I wanted to
become a doctor, but this volunteer opportunity made me certain that the medical field was for me. It
was fascinating to be involved in the discussion between the patient and the doctors since I was the

21. Roger Williams Separation Of Religion In The Massachusetts...
In 1631, Roger Williams left England and arrived in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, where he worked
as a minister. However, his divergent views on religious freedom, and the rights of the Natives cause
him to be banished from the colony. He then bought land from the Narragansett Natives, and created a
new colony, which is now known as Providence, Rhode Island. Providence quickly became a home
for Quakers, Jews, and other religious minorities. Although Williams was a minister, he was a strong
supporter of religious freedom, and the separation of church and state. London s religious intolerance

22. Narcissistic Parents Essay
Walking into a beauty pageant you may hear moms say something like, Fix your hair and makeup,
stand up straight, smile pretty, and copy everything I do . Pageant moms are prime examples of
narcissistic parent s living vicariously through their children. Unfortunately, many activities, such as
beauty pageants, are the parent s decision rather than the child s. Although the child may not enjoy
what they re doing, expressing their feelings often causes little to no change with a narcissistic parent.
This often causes the child to become codependent, making them feel it s necessary to put others
needs before their own and feeling the need please their parent in exchange for validation. Control
over someone else is the ultimate jackpot every narcissist works so hard to win (Meyers). Narcissistic
people thrive off of relationships where everything is adjusted to fit their needs. They tend to be
entitled, brag about about their achievements, fish for compliments, and always feel a need to be the
center of attention (Rosenberg). Egotistical people often show jealously towards their child s growing
independence and believe that their child is there to fulfill their wishes instead of his or her own wants
and needs (Meyers). It s estimated that up to 6% of the US population has narcissistic personality

24. Sense Of Blindness
HEIGHTENED SENSES IN THE BLIND
We as human beings utilize the five senses to process information about our surroundings. These
senses help keep us safe. For example, we use our sense of touch to avoid picking up a hot pan, while
our senses of smell and taste prevent us from cooking any rotten food in the pan. Our sense of sight
allows us to see an oncoming train, while our sense of sound makes it possible to hear the train s horn.
Unfortunately, some people are born without the sense of sight, and many others may lose the sense at
some point in their lives for various reasons. It is estimated that 1.3 million people in the United States
are legally blind, and of the 1.3 million, only 1% are born without the sense of sight (National
Federation of the Blind, 2017).
Although not having the sense of sight can be devastating, studies have been conducted proving a
person s remaining senses can be heightened over those of individuals with normal vision.
The length of time a person experiences without their sense of sight seems to impact the enhancement
of their other senses. Therefore, we will see a trend in the following studies where participants who
are born blind or became blind early in life will often be categorized separately, outperforming sighted
individuals, or people with normal vision.

railroads that were used everywhere, 157 railroad lines in 1830 (Kilometers) to 21,036 railroad lines in

In the case of a specific theatrical production, its message may be a change in attitude or action on the
part of the audience that results from the medium of the play itself, which is quite distinct from the
medium of theatrical production in general. Similarly, the message of a newscast are not the news
stories themselves, but a change in the public attitude towards crime, or the creation of a climate of
fear. A McLuhan message always tells us to look beyond the obvious and seek the nonobvious
changes or effects that are enabled, enhanced, accelerated or extended by the new thing. McLuhan
defines medium for us as well. Right at the beginning of Understanding Media, he tells us that a
medium is any extension of ourselves. Classically, he suggests that a hammer extends our arm and that
the wheel extends our legs and feet. Each enables us to do more than our bodies could do on their
own. Similarly, the medium of language extends our thoughts from within our mind out to others.
Indeed, since our thoughts are the result of our individual sensory experience, speech is an outering of
our senses we could consider it as a form of reversing senses whereas usually our senses bring the
world into our minds, speech takes our sensorially shaped minds out to the world. But McLuhan

Dickens craft in creating intense and convincing scenes in his novels is reflected in Bleak House
where the initial chapter is located in the financial core of London. Through the application of a
financial lexis, the reader is instinctively drawn towards the main location where Dickens describes
the masses of mud to be accumulating at compound interest almost like money in a bank.
Furthermore, this centres the reader s thoughts on the Chancellor and indirectly focuses on the
unethical, unprincipled ways of today s society.
The fog described in the second paragraph is another focal point in Bleak House , where Dickens
personifies it to an extent that it cruelly pinches the toes . A negative connotation of the fog is
portrayed, where it seems to be almost a wicked character that can be visualised by the reader.
Dickens also personifies gas which seems to know, for it has a haggard and unwilling look . Gas is not

Their T cell levels were in line with normal controls and it appeared that almost 100% of the
circulating T and NK cells had taken up the transgene. Their production of new T cells was normal
and they had levels of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells consistent with levels of age matched controls,
although most were naïve (Figure 3). These four patients contained normal levels of antibodies against
diseases they were vaccinated for including poliovirus, tetanus, diphtheria, and influenza. The fifth
patient had no response to the gene therapy treatment. After 30 months, he had no detectable T cells in
the blood and required an emergency HSCT. Overall, most patients that underwent gene therapy
showed a functional immune system, improved clinical outcome, and the development of a thymus at
30 months after transfusion. The four successful patients saw appearance and number of T cells faster
and higher than patients who had received HSCT. Considering that most of the T and NK cells
contained the transgene, the researchers concluded that the expression of the c chain confers a
survival and growth advantage [12].

object turned a bright terracotta the pots were heated in the kiln, and oxygen combined with iron in the
clay to turn the whole pot a reddish colour (Hughes and Perkins, 2012 Approaches, pg 166) the next
stage would be that the potter closes the vents on the kiln to cut the supply of oxygen and turn the
whole object black, also the increase in temperature would make the clay slip harden and become
shiny. Then the potter would open the vents to reintroduce oxygen again, the object would then turn
back to terracotta, apart from the hardened, shiny slip. Around the time this Calyx Krater would have
been created, in Greece objects like this would have been used for liquids such as wine, water or oil, it
may have been used to pour from or to drink from. This object could have been used at festivals,

39. The Definition Of Allusion Problems
subsection{parameter uniform 2010} There are many papers in the literature dealing with the
numerical approximation of the solution for time dependent singularly perturbed reaction diffusion
problems. In cite{186,188,189}, 1D problems are considered, in cite{185,187} the case of 2D
parabolic problems is analyzed and coupled linear systems are solved in cite{190}. Different
techniques have been used to prove the uniform convergence of the numerical method defined for
each problem. In some papers the totally discrete method is directly considered and the analysis of the
convergence is based on appropriate bounds for the truncation error and the discrete maximum
principle for the totally discrete operator. Nevertheless, this technique ... Show more content on

There exist number of papers where similar problem is studied. In cite{170}, first order uniform
convergence was proved for the central finite difference scheme constructed on a Shishkin mesh; this
result was improved in cite{171} showing that the central difference scheme really is an almost
second order uniformly convergent scheme. In cite{172}, for reaction diffusion systems with an
arbitrary number of equations, second order of uniform convergence of central differences scheme
was proved. In cite{173} the analysis was extended to a parabolic reaction diffusion system of
equations, proving first order uniform convergence for the scheme combining the Euler method in
time and central differences in space. In the context of FEM, up to our knowledge only the $p$ and
$hp $version approximates the solution at an exponential rate of convergence. In cite{174} some
numerical results showing the efficiency of this method were giving for the case of two equations. On
the other hand, in cite{175} an arbitrary number of equations is considered, proving the convergence
in the simpler case of equal diffusion parameters. subsection{Monotone iterative 2011} In cite{191},

40. Pros And Cons Of Exhibition Driving
How many things do you get pulled over for, scolded, and fined hundreds of dollars for, maybe just
because a cop needs to give more tickets by the end of the year, or isn t having a good day? Exhibition
driving could be one of them, and it especially targets people who are into cars. Exhibition driving is
just being loud, chirping tires, or excessive acceleration without speeding.There needs to be a finer
line between exhibition driving and reckless driving. Too many people get fined, or if you have a
restricted license like a 15 year old, exhibition driving is six points and will cause you to lose your
license, just for having a loud or fast car.
Think about all the things that can get you stopped, no seatbelt, tires are too big, a chain hanging from
your mirror. Some of it is ridiculous and people have better things to do. Should you really be getting
pulled over and fined because most people can t tell the difference between reckless and exhibition
driving. Here s a few differences; reckless driving puts lives in danger, drifting, speeding, swerving in
and out of traffic, etc etc. Exhibition driving involves accelerating fast, loud exhaust, chirping tires,
and revving an engine. The differences between these is that reckless driving can result in people
getting hurt as the driver of the car doesn t care about anything other than showboating. Exhibition
driving causes no harm, it is just another pointless law that lets cops pull you over because they have
nothing better to do.
People think exhibition driving includes swerving through traffic, burnouts and drifting around
corners, but in my opinion and the state law, that is reckless driving and that should be enforced. Many
high end vehicles, such as the new muscle cars and older pickups, that people buy are street legal, and
can go vast amount of speed, that doesn t mean that they are always speeding. In exhibition driving,
you can get pulled over for accelerating fast, for example, at a stop light and you put the throttle down
quite a ways on a clear road. A cop will hear it and pull you over. Let me show you an example in a
mechanical point of view. All the driver is doing is putting down the accelerator, which opens the
throttle body, which when opened,

42. Friendship In Hermann Hesse s Siddhartha
Friends for life can be hard to find, but with a good reason. Hermann Hesse addresses friendship in his
his book, Siddhartha. The protagonist in its book, Siddhartha, has trouble finding himself when he is
not happy with his life. To find himself, he goes on a journey in hopes of learning how to be happy
and be himself again. Many times though, Siddhartha finds himself reuniting with his friends he met
upon the way and learning more about himself each time. Specifically, Siddhartha learns from
Govinda and Kamala.
Siddhartha had relied quite a bit on his friendship with Govinda. If it wasn t for him along the way, he
would have ended up killing himself or unable to find any meaning to his life as well as happiness.

Kamala as well he had held dear, even to the point of bearing his child. Although, it took Siddhartha a
moment to recognize him. Kamala had to bring him up, asking Did you recognize him too? He is your
son. If Kamala had gotten bored of Siddhartha years ago, she wouldn t have had a child with him.
Instead though, she did find interest in him, even once stating he the best lover she ever had.
Siddhartha let himself lose his worries within such actions with her, but if he hadn t, he could have
found himself never finding happiness. Having a son helped him have another focus. Siddhartha also
found comfort in Kamala though, stating that You are like me, you are different from other people.
With the Samanas, Siddhartha had realized all life is connected and shares a soul. However, he felt lost
and saw that Kamala had felt so too. Everyone else seemed to be able to enjoy themselves, be content.
They couldn t however, wanting to know and experience more than they should normally. The main
way that the two are the same is that Kamala shared his unhappy nature: Weariness was written on
Kamala s beautiful face, weariness from continuing along a path which had no joyous goal. Both her
and Siddhartha had been spending decades trying to find a purpose or happiness in their life. All they
knew at first were fake pleasures of being high standard, looked up to and expected to be a role model.
That didn t suit them though, and

43. Compare And Contrast Worldview Essay
As written in our textbooks the term worldview is defined as the perception of the self, society and the
world around us , so on this very basis alone, I would say everyone in the world has a different
worldview. Although two people may be very much alike and share similar opinions or outlooks, no
people look at everything the same way. So many factors are involved in shaping our personalities and
views including relationships, environment and culture, and even if two people grow up with the same
people in the same place with the same society, they will always be different in some way. The way
each individual perceives each and every detail of our lives is unique to that person; therefore there are

Through the character of Pecola Breedlove, Toni Morrison illustrates that society has caused black
people to lose their self esteem and feel inferior to white people. All her life, Pecola is vulnerable to
the messages society carries about black people because of who she is: a black girl in her youth. The
narrator, Claudia (as an adult) described Pecola as the person that everyone compared themselves to in
order to feel better about themselves. Her simplicity decorated us, her guilt sanctified us, her pain
made us glow with health, her awkwardness made us think we had a sense of humor. (p. 205) Society
had made black people feel less superior than white people, and as a result, the people in Pecola s life
used Pecola as a scapegoat. And ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Cholly was abandoned when he was only four days old, and was raised up by his great Aunt Jimmy.
When he was young, he had his first sexual encounter with a girl and was caught by two white men
when he was in the middle of the sexual act. Instead of getting angry at him, the two men urged
Cholly to keep going. Cholly felt powerless when the white men came and told him to keep going, so
he took his anger out on the girl because she was more vulnerable than him. Never did he once
consider directing his hatred toward the hunters. Such an emotion would have destroyed him. They
were big, white armed me. He was small, black, helpless. (p. 150) Cholly had little control in his life
because of the society he lives in, and he tries to take his anger out on anyone he can who is weaker
than him. Cholly also never had actual parents because his father left before he was born and his
mother abandoned him when he was only a baby. Society s white standards of having a stable nuclear
family never happened in Cholly s family. Having no idea of how to raise children, and having never
watched any parent raise himself, he could not even comprehend what such a relationship should be.

45. The Overlooked Issue of Cervical Cancer Essay example
Cervical cancer has a major impact on women s lives; it is the second most common cause of cancer
related diseases and death among women worldwide. According to the Center for Disease Control and
Prevention (2010), cervical cancer is the cancer that forms in tissues of the cervix. The cervix is the
lower, narrow end of the uterus that connects the vagina to the upper part of the uterus. Cervical
cancer is a slow growing cancer that may not cause any symptoms at first but may cause pelvic pain or
bleeding from the vagina later. It is mostly caused by a human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. HPV
is a common virus that is passed from one person to another during sexual activity (Center for Disease
Control and Prevention [CDC], 2010).

The rate is more than twice of what is seen in non Hispanic white women. African American women
develop cervical cancer about 50% more often than non Hispanic white women. Besides ethnicity,
other factors that can increase the risk of getting cervical cancer are smoking, using birth control pills
for a long time, and having multiple sex partners (CDC, 2010).
2 Pertinent issues on the delivery of healthcare related to cervical cancer The two main issues that
affect the delivery of healthcare related to prevention and early detection of cervical cancer are finance
and the lack of awareness. Financial issues play a major role in whether or not women are screened or
vaccinated for cervical cancer. The ACS (2010) reported that uninsured women are less likely to
acquire screenings or vaccines. However, many states tried to solve the financial problem by ensuring
that private insurance companies, Medicaid, and public employee health plans will provide coverage
and reimbursement for Pap smear screening tests. The ACS supported such coverage assurances
because they removed financial barriers for women who have health insurance, but whose insurance
plans previously did not cover Pap smears (ACS, 2010). The lack of awareness about cervical cancer
is another contributing factor besides financial concerns. According to the National Cancer Institute
(NCI), women with low
