2. Judith Butler Religion
A traditional view of homosexuality is that it is perceived as wrong. It is to be avoided, to be othered ,
and is subject to social abjection . In Judith Butler s Gender Trouble, she identifies a need for a new
interpretation of gender against the previous regime of gender hierarchy and compulsory
heterosexuality. In this essay, I will argue that Judith Butler s approach to gender politics is an
improvement on previous attitudes towards homophobia. I will do this through a close contextual
reading of Butler s work, particularly Gender Trouble and her article Imitation and Gender
Insubordination. Butler calls for a more fluid, variable interpretation of gender that would strive for a
new equality where subjects are not restricted to notions of masculinity or femininity . Butler herself
argues that gender is performance and is false, and this act of doing is just a social construct. This then
calls into question what the alternatives can be, and this essay will argue these improvements on
attitudes towards homosexuality requires a deconstruction of attitudes towards gender.
It will argue this through, firstly, establishing that a patriarchal societal regime with a mind towards
procreation has the expectation of conformity to binary gender roles in place. From this, it can be
drawn that sexual preference is inherently linked to gender construction, which needs to be
challenged. And then from these first two premises it guides us to question what the binaries of male

Until the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party

When the Guangdong Provincial Secretary, Xi Zhongxun, wished Central government to transfer
more power to the local government, which would help Guangdong have more flexibility in foreign
economic activities, Deng Xiaoping agreed with this idea, and chose four cities, which just small
county towns at that time, became Special Economic Zones (SEZs).
In the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee, Deng charged that the Central
government was overconcentration of power in the hands of an individual or of a few people , which
undeniably damaged democracy and incompatible with socialism (Deng Xiaoping, 1978). Therefore,
after 1980, the Regulation on Special Economic Zones in Guangdong Province been published, the
Central government gives autonomy and the legislative power to Guangdong and Fujian provinces,
which has the right of jurisdiction over SEZs, to some extend. Therefore, the local government have
the legislative power so that they could enact their special law that aiming foreign investors and assets,
and suitable for the local situation. Deng s opinion toward these measures was, if they are conforming
to the CCP s ideology, Marxism, and the government thinks it is the right method, then do it without
being afraid of failure and punishment (Deng Xiaoping, 1992).

4. An Effective Retail Design That Maximize Success For Juice...
This problem case details the steps to determine an effective retail design that would maximize
success for Juice Guys in the east coast market. After reaching triumph in the west coast market, Juice
Guys is looking to expand firstly into the Boston neighbourhoods. Boston consumers had a strong
likeness for Nantucket Nectars but the market was different: metropolitan city (year round) versus
summer only in Nantucket Island.
To accomplish this feat, the company must decide how to target and position the stores given the
differential differences in demographic and environmental traits. Furthermore, Juice Guys needs to
determine who are their customers, their inclinations for the product and their preferences to a
smoothie store. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This poses a substantial financial loss as each store provides a total of $1300 with margins as high as
50%. Alternatively, Juice Guys has only been successful in the west coast; therefore the company will
not risk future losses. However, as there is a growing market for healthy lifestyles, this presents a
considerable growth option for the company.
2. Expand into east coast and design like west coast
Juice Guys currently has a strong reputation in the west coast, which can be carried forward to their
operations in the east. They have a deep reputation with consumers for their products, which leads to
increased potential of brand resonance. However, as the west coast consumers differ from the east,
there is the possibility of Juice Guys products not being accepted as welcomingly.
3. Expand into east coast and design for east coast needs
Juice Guys can capitalize on the brand equity of the brand yet design retail concepts in Boston
according to local needs. This option will allow the company to replicate the success they achieved in
Nantucket Island (modifying operations to open during summer to meet local consumer needs).
Additionally, this will allow the Boston market to understand this new product offering. However, as
retail concepts differ across the country, there may be the lack of consistency across the brand, which
will confuse consumers in Juice Guys brand message.

Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad is a well known figure among the society. He was fourth prime minister

quickly from member of parliament to prime minister. He has in dominance more than twenty two

economic growth and succession of forward infrastructure projects. Currently, he is chairman of
Proton Holding BHD, Group Lotus PLC and Chancellor of Universiti Teknologi Petronas (UTP).
In 1981 that is when Dr. Mahathir became prime minister, government patronage and certain ethnic
discrimination in employment and higher education have develop in mind a Malay middle class,
including some billionaires. Meanwhile, the ethnic Chinese minority is still seen as having out of
balance wealth. Yet, the prime minister again and again accused his fellow Malays (or Bumiputras) of
contented and unwilling to work hard. Before he stepped down, Dr. Mahathir felt disappointed with
his race because he has achieved too little in his predominant task of making his race (Malays) a
successful race, meaning a race that is respected. He developed his ideas in a controversial book

These contradictions suggest that Europeans had never seen a black man before, and was afraid of
them. It is no surprise Europeans reacted the way they did for we tends to be more cautious around
people we had never seen or met before until we get familiar with them. In a way, I believe the author
was trying to imply that these two races were like yin and yang yin the color of black was described as
darkness/evil and yang the color of white was described as light. To support the above statement, the
author talks about the first Africans that were transported to Virginia, who were described as a people
of beastly living, without a God, law, religion /their color allegedly made them Devil incarnate (50)
and was accused of man eating creature. Europeans feared and discriminate Africans but that didn t
stop them from selling them and making them work in plantation for a certain period of time. In
addition, white blames the African for things they did not do the living image of primitive aggressions
which they said was the Negro but was really their own (50). This statement proved that white
colonizers get away with things by blaming the blacks, insisting that blacks are going to gore the life
of them and denying the fact, blacks to be their own. The first Africans in Virginia were not slaves
when they were first brought to Virginia and not reduced to property. They were merely laborers that

Those with GAD also experience fatigue, muscle tension, difficulty sleeping, irritability, restlessness
and edginess (ADAA, 2015). Worry and anxiety are a natural part of everyday life, but for those with
GAD, the worry becomes so severe that it impairs their normal functioning. The lifetime prevalence of
GAD is 28%, with a mean age of onset at 11 years (Duval et al., 2015). This section will focus on the
neurological information of GAD, current research and the effect music has on GAD. Neuroscience.
When an anxiety response occurs, objectively unthreatening stimuli becomes threatening (Davidson,
2013). To help cope with stress, the brain releases the hormone cortisol (Bear, Connors Paradiso,
2007). During the fear and anxiety response, the central nucleus of the amygdala is active; once active,
an excitatory response in the hypothalamus occurs (Davidson, 2013). This excitation causes
corticotrophin releasing hormone (CRH) to be released; CRH then triggers the anterior pituitary gland
to secrete ACTH (Davidson, 2013). The ACTH levels in the blood stream cause cortisol to be released
from the adrenal cortex and once the levels of cortisol become high, the hippocampus activates,
suppressing the release of CRH (Davidson, 2013). The bloodstream carries cortisol to the brain, where
it bind to receptors in the cytoplasm of man

11. Analysis Of Mirrors By Lucy Grealy
What really determines something to be beautiful. In Lucy Grealy s narrative, Mirrors , she describes
her journey of finding her own idea of beauty. As a child she had cancer in her face so she had surgery
to remove but it caused her face to be deformed. Consequently, she was bullied because of the way
she looked, which caused her self esteem to lower immensely. As a result, she had undergone many
surgeries and even went as far as to travel to another country to try and fix her face. Therefore, as she
gets older she not only alters herself physically but mentally. She finally realizes that how people see
us should not influence how we view ourselves not only physically but mentally as well. So she
decides to never look at a mirror because she feels she does not have to to know what she looks like
anymore. She finally accepted the way she looks and started focussing on her personal well being and
recognizes that s what is actually important. Society has a critical impact on the way we see ourselves
because of the way social media shows us that we should look a certain way, people telling us we
should look a certain way, your negative thoughts about how you look, and how society determines
your value based on looks.

Although a lot of evidence was really convincing, he tried to prove it unconvincing and use sarcasm to
convince other jurors otherwise. One example of #7 using sarcasm would be this quote: quot;Why don
t we have them run the trial over... quot; I think this quote clearly shows that juror #7 is trying to
convince other jurors, that court s evidence proves the young man is guilty without reasonable doubt.
Also to break #8 s spirit he used name calling, another kind of peer pressure. I believe this is a very
good example: quot;The boy is guilty pal, like the nose on your face. quot; The third and last juror I
picked was #8, he was not using sarcasm, nor was he muscle flexing, he was using reasonable
argument, which helped him convince all the jurors that the young man was innocent. He did not try
to convince anybody by screaming at him, on the contrary he tried to go over all the evidence, and he
was using intelligent thinking, like trying to calculate exact times, and figure out the correct position
of the switch blade in the chest of the father. He was also trying to recreate a situation to see if indeed
one of the witnesses on the stand was lying.

13. The Effect Of Low Ph On Enzyme Activity
Final Applied Lab Project: The effect of low pH on Enzyme Activity
Thomas Long
Biology 6380: Introduction to Biology (2155)
Summer Semester Final Applied Lab Project
Introduction
What are Enzymes?
Enzymes are proteins that initiate change. The enzymes found in the human body are naturally
occurring. They catalyze, or accelerate, all normal biochemical reactions in the body. Enzymes are
responsible for all metabolic functions and many are vital for life itself. These proteins are highly
specific regarding what they do and under what conditions they do it (2015, Enzyme Institution).
Similar to a glove and a hand, the enzyme and substrate must fit correctly in order to work.
The reactions within cells are catalyzed by a specific type of proteins known as enzymes. Enzymes
catalyze the rate of a specific reaction by recuing the amount of energy needed to get the chemical
reaction started or the activation of energy. The activity of these enzymes is dependent upon several
different things including the shape of the molecule, and specifically the concentration of the enzyme
and substrate (hydrogen peroxide). This laboratory exercise will be conducted under a controlled
environment to determine the influence of pH on the enzyme catalase.

15. The Rights Of Rejection Of The Contract
The place of examination is subject to the agreement of both parties. It may be on pre shipment
inspection , nonetheless, it is inconvenient for the buyer to do so if he is in another country and has no
representative at the place of shipment . In Bragg v Villanova , the seller received the documents and
paid the price before taking the delivery and finding that the goods was not of contract quality. The
court found that he was considered as not accepting the goods until he had reasonable opportunities to
exercise examination, therefore, he had not lost his right of rejection. The two rights of rejection in
FOB contract are applied at the similar principle of CIF contract as discussed. In particular, if the
documents are inconsistent with the contract, the buyer is entitled to reject them and give the seller
opportunity to correct the defects; he may reject the non conforming goods even though he accepts the
documents . Under section 51(3) of the Sale of Good Acts 1979, the damages are measured by: ... the
difference between the contract price and the market or current price of the goods at the time or times
when they ought to have been delivered, or (if no time was fixed) at the time of the refusal to deliver .

INTRODUCTION
The aim of this research was to look at the discrimination towards teenagers from certain family
backgrounds, like stepfamilies, ethnic families and single parent families in council housing estates.
The aim is to look at the age range of 13 18 years, as these youngsters have a tendency to be criticised
more by society. With no thought that they are individuals with different morals and personalities.
There is a high level of petty crime, recreational drugs, truancy and teenage pregnancy in this range of
younger people. There is also a higher level of social exclusions for this age group. There is always a
tendency to lay blame on their circumstances and backgrounds. It is not necessarily true that if you
come from a less adequate background, that you are more likely to be an underachiever. If you give
someone self esteem then they can always do better. People assume that they can pass judgement on
someone else s life, which is labelling them as inadequate.
Like traditional stereotypes, the teenager has been given a distorted image by the modern media (Int,

time. Others should not dictate them, how and where. The need is more acceptable for this to happen

19. Automatic Transmission Essay
ABSTRACT
The transmission in a car which works automatically depending on the vehicle speed and engine speed
is called as automatic transmission while as a manual transmission is the one there is a manual clutch
pedal used while changing gears that allow the driver to change the gears as per driving needs. In a
country like India, automatic transmission gives only a driving pleasure to the driver in heavy traffic
as there is no need of changing gears because of the fact that it lacks a clutch paddle system which
gives complete rest to one leg of the driver. Manual transmission fails to provide such an added
benefit to drivers. But in developing countries, the idea of an automatic transmission is not wise and
applicable to all due to the economic ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
For the selection of reverse mode , the driver must come to a complete stop, depress the shift lock
button and select reverse. Severe damage may be caused to the transmission if the car is not made to
come to a complete stop. Most of the modern day automatic transmissions have a safety mechanism in
place, which prevents putting the car in reverse when the vehicle is moving forward.
3. Neutral / No gear (N)
This mode is almost same as in manual cars where it allows the vehicle to coast freely under its own
weight and gain momentum without the motive force from the engine. 4. Drive (D)
This mode of the transmission is to engage the full range of available gear which allows the vehicle to
move forward and accelerate through the range of gears. In this mode the gear changes automatically
as the cars gains speed. The number of gear ratios within the transmission depends on the model, but
initially they ranged from three to four and five speeds gears. Six speed automatic transmissions are
the most common in cars and trucks. However, seven speed automatics are also being available in
some high performance production luxury cars as are eight speed

20. Analysis Of Moonlight By Barry Jenkins
Barry Jenkins Moonlight depicts the coming of age of a young black boy as he struggles with and
endures abuse for his sexuality, causing him to hide his internal conflicts. The life of the protagonist,
Chiron, is split into his three main stages of life, with each part focusing on the physical and emotional
abuse he endures due to his homosexual orientation. When the viewer first meets Chiron, he is
running from bullies. As he ages, the bullying follows him, causing him to harden and avoid
vulnerability in his adult life. Jenkins uses climactic scenes in Chiron s life to portray how prejudice
against black sexuality forces him to conceal his true identity. In Moonlight, Jenkins cinematic style
illustrates Chiron s public and private ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The scene culminates with the characters distancing themselves from both each other and the
audience. Rather than following the characters as they leave, the camera stays stable, leaving an empty
space on screen in their absence. This absence of a figure on screen in their house hints at Chiron s
lack of a home, a safe place to explore his individuality.
Jenkins lighting and sound are also essential to the portrayal of this scene as a key moment in Chiron s
struggle with his identity. These elements characterize Paula as an impeding obstacle to Chiron s self
discovery. Chiron s face here is highlighted, while his mother s face is covered in shadows. This
contrasts the two, indicating that the audience should be on Chiron s side and see the darkness within
Paula. Typically, mothers in films are basked in warm light, indicating their nurturing relationships
with their children. The shadows covering Paula s face, therefore, suggest that she is an absent mother
figure, which soils Chiron s natural maturation. Furthermore, no sound can be heard from Paula,
though the audience can read her lips and understand the nature of their conversation. Instead,
classical music is audible. The use of no sound further establishes Paula as an absent figure in Chiron
s life because she is seen, but not heard. Paula s body is basked in pink light until the end of the scene,
when the light fades to reveal bluish green walls. In this film, Jenkins uses the

prejudice because government employment policies operate in favor of national workers (1). In
Singapore, migrant workers make up a larger percentage of the population thereby leading to
competition over employment with the natives. As such, the possibility of xenophobia prevailing in
Singapore is high. This is because competition between natives and foreigners over meager economic
resources has always led to xenophobia in many other countries. For example, xenophobia has been a
problem in South Africa because the residents accuse African immigrants from the horn of Africa for
stealing their jobs (Slier, para. 3). The xenophobia problems come from unemployed South Africans.
Nonetheless, most of the immigrants struggle to earn a living in the same way the natives do but the
natives view them as competitors. For instance, most successful immigrant groups are Somalis. The
reason for the success of the Somalis is their entrepreneurial skills as well as their strong intra ethnic
ties that resemble those of the Indians. Each slum has an isolated Somali neighborhood where most
Somali refugees live and work (Abdi, para. 7). Nonetheless, most Somali refugees and immigrants
face insecurity from the local vigilante groups and gangs because they view them as aliens. However,

Ethical Issues Surrounding Genetic Screening and Genetic Engineering
In today s modern age science is moving at a rapid pace; one of those scientific fields that has taken
the largest leaps is that of genetics. When genetics first comes to mind, many of us think of it as a type
of science fiction, or a mystical dream. Yet genetics is here, it is real, and has numerous ethical
implications. One of the particular areas of interest is prenatal genetics. In this field, many new and
outstanding innovations have been made. A mother and father can now check for a large array of
disorders that could occur in their child; sexual preference has now been shifted from the hands of a

In this brave new field, there have been many steps and strides taken of which we could have never
imagined. For instance, before a mother and father decided to carry out the process of having
offspring, they can visit a genetic clinic to figure out if their child is likely to have certain illnesses. A
list of such illnesses are: Down syndrome, cystic fibrosis, dwarfism, breast cancer (susceptibility to),
fragile X syndrome, Huntington s Disease, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and various types of
nervous system degeneration (Golden 51). These are only a few of the nearly 40 types of disorders
that can be determined by genetic testing. It may be rather nice to know that a child does not have a
genetic disease, but what does a couple do if the results of a genetic test are returned with negative
results? Also, if the information from the test is ambiguous the couple might decide not to carry out
the pregnancy due to risk. In a 1999 article written by Frederic Golden, he questions if the child
should be brought into the world ...in hopes that a cruel disease can be managed or cured... or if the
fetus should be aborted. He also poses the question of insurance coverage. This might seem like a
rather odd comment to make. Insurance is insurance isn t it? And for the most part we all have it. Yet

Dawn of the Dread
The Caribbean is known for its ghost stories, myths and haunted landscapes. Dawn of the Dread, by
Geoffrey Philp, was set in rural Jamaica. Being set in the high hills of mount Airy, the author

Darren mentioned running so fast not even a rolling calf could catch him. Rolling Calf is a mythical

also mentioned his fear of waking up the duppies under her cotton tree which came from stories of
dead slaves who worked in the cotton field. These stories epitomize the mythical nature off the
Caribbean culture.
Like in the earlier years, it can be seen in this story that Christianity was the most dominant and highly
accepted religion in Jamaica. Having contrasting beliefs and practices, individuals would be shunned
and ostracized. The author illustrates this idea by showing how Darren s passionate beliefs in
Rastafarianism had resulted in him being kicked out of his house. He was told to never to come back

26. Pop Culture In Japan
The throbbing crowd of Japanese business men all dressed in a suit holding a briefcase in a crowded
train station is a common image associated with the culture in Japan. Japan s culture has promoted a
lifestyle where work is prioritized over everything else and consumes the time of most adults. In
Response to this stressful work culture, Pop Culture has emerged in Japan as a way of providing
various mediums for escapism. For many Japanese adults, the time to create new relationships in the
form of romance or friendship has had to be given up due to the high expectations of work. Fred

28. Diction In Those Winter Sundays By Robert Hayden
In the poem Those Winter Sundays by Robert Hayden, the speaker is reflecting on his past with his
father, but mainly the Sunday mornings he experienced during his childhood. Throughout the poem,
there also happens to be a very dark and possibly even somber tone, which is shown by using several
different types of literary devices. Hayden utilizes strong imagery supported by diction and substantial
symbolism comprehensively. Furthermore, there are various examples of both alliteration and
assonances. The poem does not rhyme and its meter has little to no order. Although the father labors
diligently all day long, and he still manages to be a caring person in his son s life. The poem s main
conflict comes from the son not realizing how good his father actually was to him until he was much
older. When the speaker was a young boy, he regarded his father as a callous man due to his stern
attitude and apparent lack of proper affection towards him. Now that the son is older, he discovers that
even though his father did not express his love in words, he consistently did with his acts of kindness
and selflessness.
Hayden utilizes diction to set a dark and solemn tone throughout the poem. Like the various examples
of imagery, there is also a strong use of underlying symbolism. In the first stanza, the words cold (1. 2)
and fires blaze (1. 5) are used, which introduces a conflict. This is emphasized in the second stanza
when the word cold (2. 1) is used again, later followed by the word warm (2. 2). In the last stanza, the
father eventually had driven out the cold (3. 2). Yet the father had not ridden the house of the cold air
until the end of the poem, which symbolizes how it took his son several years later to recognize the
behaviors in which his father conveyed his love for him.
This arising tone of regret and distance is also formed by the speaker s depiction of his father having
cracked hands that ached, (1. 3) which further signifies the father s struggle with the severe coldness.
The concept of self sacrifice is apparent in this portrayal of his father s disregard to his own pain in
order to provide warmth and light for his family s home. The stirring of banked fires blaze (1. 5)

29. Diabetes Mellitus ( Iddm )
Diabetes Mellitus In the pancreas, there are specialized cells that form small islands of cells, called
islets of Langerhans, that are alpha cells and beta cells. In these endocrine cells, they release
pancreatic hormones, such as insulin and glucagon that diffuse into the bloodstream to regulate
glucose levels. Beta cells secretes insulin, which regulates carbohydrate, protein, fat metabolism and
storage. On the other hand, alpha cells secrete glucagon, in which it breaks down stored sugar
(glycogenolysis). Without enough production of insulin, glucose remains in the blood that generates
an increase levels of sugar in the blood. In Insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), which is also
known as type 1 diabetes there is a continuing destruction of β cells leads to progressive loss of insulin
secretory reserve with, in order, loss of first phase insulin secretion in response to an intravenous
glucose tolerance test, then to clinical diabetes when insulin secretion falls below a critical amount,
and finally, in most but not all those with type 1 diabetes, to a state of absolute insulin deficiency
(Daneman 2006). In other words, majority of the cells that are suppose to produce insulin from the
pancreas are eternally destroyed. According to Barr (2008), in Noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus

it has impacts on the biological effects of crop fields, per capita energy consumption and child

increases the vulnerability of the world to food security and increased food prices. In 2010, the United
Nations Food and Agriculture Organization doubled the price index because of the weather conditions
in food exporting nations like Australia, United States, and Russia (Hatfield et al. 2014)
Secondly, different crops respond to climate differently as they depend on carbon dioxide,
temperature, solar energy, and precipitation (Walthall et al. 2013). Each plant species do well at an

atmosphere will lead to a decline in crop yield or plants would adapt to the changes over time. Also,
temperature and precipitation changes also lead to an increase in the number of dry days and hot

36. The Bluest Eye And Alison Bechdel s Fun Home Essay
Toni Morrison s The Bluest Eye and Alison Bechdel s Fun Home are both novels that employ a
reflective narration of the past to address common themes of trauma, unorthodox family relationships,
and sexuality. Although they demonstrate pronounced differences in setting and design, both stories
utilize this retrospective narrative to expose masculinity s stratified hegemony as a driving force of
internalized shame, violence, and the death of self. Furthermore, it becomes clear that these shared
themes result from the intense pressure to conform to the asymmetrical hierarchy s ideal masculine
identity through an analysis of the characters Cholly and Bruce. Before examining these characters it
is important to define gender with the understanding that masculinity is a gendered hegemony. In her
definition of gender, Judith Halberstam notes that gender is socially systematized, performed, and
reproduced in cultures, institutions, and individual identities (Burgett, Bruce, and Hendler, 116). Mimi
Schippers expands this definition in her article on gendered violence, implying that masculinity is
central to gender relations. In short, Schippers defines masculinity as simultaneously a place in gender
relations, the practices through which men and women engage... in gender, and the effects of these

This can be seen when he says, Oh, Frankenstein! Generous and self devoted being! What does it avail
that I now ask thee to pardon me? I who irretrievably destroyed thee by destroying all thou lovest.
Alas! He is cold, he cannot answer me (Shelley, 221). In the following pages, however, the monster
admits to having shown a lack of compassion during the murders of Henry Clerval and Victor s wife,
Elizabeth. Even though the monster seems to be mindlessly killing people close to Victor, one can
argue that his rampage was based on humanity. Before the murders, the creature simply seeks a female
companion from his creator, to be able to, interchange of those sympathies necessary for [its] being
(Shelley, 147). While Victor did initially comply, he throws the idea out the window, and as a result,
the monster experiences true heartbreak. This heartbreak leads the monster to commit the crimes that
it did, inflicting a fairly equal amount of pain upon Frankenstein compared to the suffering inflicted on
the monster. For example, Victor promotes the suffering by taking away the companion and creating
the creature in a wretched form. Furthermore, the monster is extremely young, so like a child crying
over a bump on a table, Frankenstein s creation is overreacting to a situation that he has never
encountered before. He solely acts out of a long for humanity and equality in the world he was forced
into. This is seen on page 222, when Victor s monster says to Robert Walton, he sought his own

a term used to describe the inability of a patient to distinguish the contractor from a regular healthcare
worker of the facility. In this situation, the employer can still be held vicariously liable if there were
no efforts to differentiate them from their own employees. An employer can also be held directly
liable for an employee or contractors conduct under the legal concept of negligent selection and
retention. This happens when the employer should have either ejected the individual for employment,
carried out remediation for deficiencies, or discharged the individual from employment; this creates

41. I Know Why Miriam Is The Caged Bird
Who Is the caged bird? Who is the free bird? According to The Long Walk Home the caged bird and
free bird could be anybody. It could be MIriam,it could be Odessa,it could be Tucker, or it could be the
little girl Mary Katherine. You need to pay close attention to know who is the Caged Bird or the Free
Bird. I think that out of these characters the caged bird would be Tucker and the Free Bird would be
Miriam. These characters relate a lot to Maya Angelou s, I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings . To
learn more about this and why Tucker is the Caged Bird and why Miriam is the Free Bird, read the
following Paragraphs. To start off, we will start to talk about Who is the caged bird and why. I think

Though, I can compare both because they do have some things in common. They are both White
Americans which make them eligible to have a good future and be able to vote. The difference is that
one catches the most attention when the other is kind of ignored. They also think differently, Miriam is
positive and sees African Americans as friends. While Tucker sees them as outcasts of society, he
doesn t want them winning their Civil Rights any time soon. I can also say that they are kind of
relatable because they both are able to get a job and have plenty of food to eat. These are just some
differences and some things they have in common. In conclusion, I believe that Miriam is more free
than Tucker can be. Besides Tucker is the one who ended up loosing. This is just my opinion to who
could be the Caged Bird and the Free Bird in, The Long Walk Home . As you can tell, In the story
African families are struggling to achieve their dream to be free, but still keep on walking forwards
instead of backwards. The white men, on the other hand, are falling backwards because they don t
seem to be trying so much on stopping the African Americans movement. This is why we live in the

EBIT in 2001 was $527,366,000. So the EBIT is $137,366,000. Then this is taxed at 40% so the EAT
is $82,420,000. So by taking on more debt the EAT diminishes so the earnings per share will drop
dramatically. Dividends affect next years earnings as they are taken out of the EAT.
e. Debt Interest Coverage Rations and Financial Flexibility
The debt interest coverage ratio is EBIT/Debt Interest. The interest on the debt is $390 million as
calculated above. The EBIT in 2001 is $527,366,000. So debt coverage ratio is 527,366/390,000=1.35
If Wrigley s gets a non investment grade rating then their financial flexibility is severely limited.
f. Outstanding Shares
Issuing 3 billion dollars of new debt to pay dividends should not have any effect on the voting control
of the Wrigley family. Using that money to buy back shares will have an effect on the voting right of
the family. When shares are repurchased they are put in the company treasury and are no longer
outstanding. Then the Wrigley family s percent of outstanding shares would rise giving them more
voting control. They also have 58% if the outstanding shares of the Class B shares which have a 10 to
1 voting advantage over the common share class. These shares are not affected by the buyback.

INTRODUCTION
HIV is one of the leading causes of illness in the United States. It is estimated that 1,148,200
individuals are living with HIV, with about 207,800 or 18% that are undiagnosed and 47,500 newly
infected in 2010, in the United States (CDC, 2013). Although there is no cure, treatment is available
through antiviral medications, but access to healthcare is often a major pitfall. Many of the behaviors
that make individuals more vulnerable for HIV, such as IV drug use and illegal prostitution, also
increase an individual s vulnerability to be incarcerated. In 2010, there were 20,093 reported inmates
with HIV/AIDS in custody in either state or federal prison (HIV in Prisons, 2012). Although this
number has decreased since the previous census count of 20,880 individuals imprisoned in either state
or federal custody, this still does not take into account the individuals that are released from prison and
are required to seek a continuation of treatment on their own. In 2012, the number of admissions to
state and federal prison in the United States was 609,800 offenders. The number of releases from U.S.
prisons in 2012 (637,400) exceeded that of admissions for the fourth consecutive year (Prisoners in
