Eastern European countries appear to have become dependent on Ru.docxjoellemurphey
Eastern European countries appear to have become dependent on Russian oil originally due to the country being a reliable supplier to the European countries (Bradshaw, 2014, p. 76). Though the countries were allies with the United States, they were trying to become less dependent on the Middle East and saw that Russia was a reliable source. Much of this reliance was due to the “iron curtain” as well as the fact that many of the Eastern European countries were part of the Soviet Union in some way or affiliated with them.
It appears that much of the reason as to why these countries reached energy accords with Russia is due to the convenience. There was “limited access to storage and alternative sources of gas supply” (Bradshaw, 2014, p. 77). This pushed these countries to depend more on Russia, which appeared to be an easier access to gas supplies. Another reason might have been due to fear as the Kremlin punished Ukraine for voting for an anti-Moscow government (Bradshaw, 2015, p. 77). This action shows that many of these countries may have reached these accords due to the pressure and encouragement of the Soviet Government. In the 1980’s the dependence of European countries on Russian gas resources was 50-60%. In the 1970’s, many of the Eastern European countries also became reliant on Russia due to a greater demand of oil and gas. The surrounding countries that were providing resources were not able to keep up with the demand and thus these countries sought to get their sources from Russia. It also helped that Russia’s prices appeared to be lower than that of the world market (Bradshaw, 2014, p. 87-88). Due to the price of oil and gas and the availability, Eastern European countries were able to grow and build in gas import and its infrastructure, thus in turn causing it to be dependent on Russia.

Based on your considered review of this module’s readings as well as your reflection upon the first three modules, evaluate the questions below.
In retrospect it seems obvious, but exactly how and why did Eastern European countries come to depend on Russian oil and natural gas after World War II?
Why did the Western Europeans reach energy accords with the Russians in the 1970s and early 1980s, building large-scale natural gas import infrastructures and increasing their dependence on Russian gas?

Early scholarly and philosophical manuscripts were in Greek. However.docxjoellemurphey
Early scholarly and philosophical manuscripts were in Greek. However, by the 5th century CE – and onward – language was mainly spread by conquests, trades, religious affiliations, technological advancements or entertainment. (Gascoigne, 2001). For example, as the geographic territory under Roman control grew, the use of Latin as a common language also spread. In areas under Roman control, Latin was the spoken and written language of the courts and commerce, as well as the language of the Christian church. As the Roman Empire expanded, Latin served as a common language that allowed for people of diverse linguistic backgrounds to be able to communicate.
Onward and by the early 14th century, the trend toward the use of vernacular language had spread throughout most of Europe. As monarchies throughout the region began to consolidate, the use of vernacular languages contributed to an increasing nationalism, or feeling of pride in one’s own nation, and in this case among people of similar linguistic backgrounds. People began to feel more connected to local leaders than they did to influences from afar. These sociopolitical shifts, along with the development of moveable type (the printing press), helped to ensure the success of the vernacular languages during the Renaissance.
Assignment:
The goal of this assignment is to research and report on the origins of vernacular language, and its spread while also providing evidence of Latin’s influence on all Western languages.
Choose one native language spoken in Europe, discuss the origins of the vernacular language and describe how the language spread.
As a whole, in what ways has Latin influenced Western language development?
Prepare a 2-page essay (not including cover page and works cited page) answering the questions stated above in APA format.

Early Innovations and Their Impact Today Wilbur and Orville Wrig.docxjoellemurphey
Early Innovations and Their Impact Today
Wilbur and Orville Wright's innovative spirit allowed them to take their place in history. Their inventions have changed the way people live around the world. At the turn of the century, an explosion in technological achievements occurred. The same kind of energy that went into advances in aviation went into the development of automobiles, telephones, televisions, and immunizations to prevent diseases. These and other innovations and achievements continue to have an enormous impact on human life.
In this week's Discussion, you will analyze two technological innovations/achievements of the late 19th/early 20th century and describe the impact they have on life today.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review Chapter 2 (pp.10–30) from this week's Learning Resources focusing on technological innovations and achievements around the globe.
Identify two significant technological innovations/achievements (such as the telephone, television, automobiles, and vaccinations) from the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Consider the ways in which these technologies made an impact on society at the turn of the century.
Reflect on how these technologies continue to impact your life today.
Support your assertions by making at least 2 references, in proper APA format, to your course readings.
With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 3 a 2- to 3-paragraph analysis where you do the following:
Identify two significant technological innovations/achievements from the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Describe, in your opinion, why you believe your choices were significant and created global impacts during that time period.
Explain how these two particular innovations/achievements impact the way you live today.

Early Constitutional ControversiesIn 1788, Alexander Hamilton and .docxjoellemurphey
Early Constitutional Controversies
In 1788, Alexander Hamilton and James Madison, who had both played active roles at the Constitutional Convention, worked together to write
The Federalist Papers
, a series of articles originally published in New York newspapers to convince readers to back the ratification of the Constitution. Constitutional scholars often refer to these papers to gain an appreciation of the “original intention” of the Framers, how those men expected the federal government to operate under the Constitution, and the powers they sought to grant or deny the federal government. By the early 1790s, however, Hamilton and Madison had divided over basic constitutional questions such as whether or not the federal government could charter a national bank. The American electorate, which had ratified the Constitution, had split on the issue as well, dividing into rival Federalist and Republican parties.
For this assignment, explore
one
significant constitutional controversy, from the first two decades of the United States under the Constitution (1789 to 1821). Topics to consider include:
The incorporation of the Bank of the United States
Debt assumption
The Jay Treaty
The Alien and Sedition Acts
The Election of 1800
John Marshall’s use of judicial review
The Louisiana Purchase
The trial of Aaron Burr
Jefferson’s Embargo
Federalist opposition to the War of 1812
Missouri’s application for statehood
Describe opposing views of the topic under consideration, and explain how each side used the Constitution to support its position. Assess the validity of the two sides according to your own interpretation of the Constitution as well as according to how the Constitution and constitutional principles were understood at the time the controversy occurred.
The paper should draw from at least
one
primary source and
two
scholarly, secondary sources for a total of three sources (not including the Constitution itself). For assistance on the use of primary and secondary sources, please see sections 8.1 and 8.2 of the Ashford Writing Center. The secondary sources should be accessed through any of the academic databases available through the Ashford University library.
The paper must be three pages in length and formatted according to APA style. You must use at least three scholarly resources (at least two of which can be found in the Ashford Online Library) other than the textbook to support your claims and subclaims. Cite your resources in text and on the reference page. For information regarding APA samples and tutorials, visit the Ashford Writing Center, within the Learning Resources tab on the left navigation toolbar.

Early childhood teachers need to stay connected to what is occurring.docxjoellemurphey
Early childhood teachers need to stay connected to what is occurring in the community outside the classroom politically and economically because these factors will influence their classroom. Items of recent debate include social and emotional development, as well as technology in the early childhood classrooms.
For this assignment, take on the role of an early childhood teacher. The principal of your school has placed you on a committee to create a 12-15 slide digital presentation to inform families about current trends in early childhood education. Explain the trends and discuss whether they are developmentally appropriate for young children. In addition, include a description of the effect this trend has on student outcomes. The presentation should discuss early childhood trends and influences on the early childhood classroom in the following areas:
Political (legislative and regulatory)
Economic

Earlier this semester, you participated in a class discussion about .docxjoellemurphey
Earlier this semester, you participated in a class discussion about the character of Bath de Chaucer's wife. You are aware of the complexity of her as a resourceful, cunning, open and ambitious woman. For this essay, I would like you to write a comparison / contrast essay in which you discuss the Wife of Bath as you compare or contrast one or more of these three well-known modern American women: Beyoncé Lil 'Kim, and / or Lady Gaga.
Think beyond and below cliches and perceptions. The comparison should not be disrespectful to these modern iconic women. Obviously, times have changed, and I am in no way suggesting that these modern women share all or even some of the qualities of the Wife of Bath, aside from her drive for independence, sovereignty, and success.
When developing the comparisons and contrasts of it, you should use AT LEAST THREE SOURCES to gather information and knowledge to support the claims and interpretations of it. These sources should be cited in the text and on a works cited page using a precise MLA documentation style.
You will write one essay of 500 - 600 words for this paper . This essay must be formatted in MLA Paper form.
Here is the reading about The character of Bath de Chaucer’s life
From The Canterbury Tales:
General Prologue
Here bygynneth the Book of the Tales of Caunterbury
Whan that Aprill, with his shoures soote
The droghte of March hath perced to the root
And he bathed every veyne in swich liquor,
Of which virtue begotten is the flour;
5 Whan Zephirus eek with his sweete breeth
Inspired hath in every holt and heeth
The tender croppes, and the yonge ring
Hath in the Ram his halfe cours yronne,
And smale foweles maken melodye,
10 That slepen al the nyght with open eye-
(So priketh hem Nature in hir corages);
Thanne longen folk to goon on pilgrimages
And palmeres for to seken straunge strondes
To ferne halwes, kowthe in probry londes;
15 And specially from every shires ende
Of Engelond, to Caunterbury they wende,
The hooly blisful martir for to seke
That hem hath holpen, whan that they were seeke.
Bifil that in that seson, on a day,
20 In Southwerk at the Tabard as I lay
Redy to wenden on my pilgrymage
To Caunterbury with ful devout courage,
At nyght was come into that hostelrye
Wel nyne and twenty in a compaignye
25 Of Sondry folk, by aventure yfalle
In felaweshipe, and pilgrimes were they alle,
That toward Caunterbury wolden ryde.
The rooms and the stables weren wyde,
And wel we weren esed att beste;
30 And shortly, whan the sonne was to rest,
So hadde I spoken with hem everichon
That I was of hir felaweshipe anon,
And made forward erly for to ryse
To take our wey, ther as I yow devyse.
35 But nathelees, whil I have tyme and space,
Er that I ferther in this tale pace,
Me thynketh it acordaunt to resoun
To tel yow to the conditio.

UNIT 3. LESSON 1 - Elements of Comparison and/or Contrast Essays
INTRODUCTION
In this lesson, we will focus on:
A. Methods of Organization
B. Organizational Patterns
C. Unity and Coherence
We use comparison and contrast essays to help us better understand (1) the similarities, (2) the
differences, and/or (3) the similarities and the differences between, or among, two or more things or
ideas.
These essays can help us make sense of the world around us and make better decisions about our
actions. They also can change or strengthen our opinions. In other words, they can help us to think
critically about a subject.
A. Methods of Organization
There are three Methods of Organization for Comparison and/or Contrast Essays:
• The Comparison Essay
• The Contrast Essay
• The Comparison and Contrast Essay
The comparison essay discusses how two things are alike; it compares or
discusses similarities.
Think about Thesis Statement A:
Thesis Statement A: The two major political parties, the Republican and the Democratic
Parties, are similar in their intention to protect the country, the people, and their own interests.
You can look at this thesis statement in the following way:
Topics
the Republican Party
the Democratic Party
Controlling Idea
(Method of Organization)
are similar in their intention to protect
Points
(or Categories)
the country
the people
their own interests
EAP1640 - Level 6 Writing (Virtual College, MDC)
Author: Professor Irasema Fernandez (do not copy or redistribute) (Unit 3: Lesson 1) Page 1 of 6
The thesis of the comparison essay includes:
• the topic (two topics to compare) = the Republican and Democratic parties
• the controlling idea (take a position) = are similar in their intention to protect
• the branches (points or categories) = the country, the people, and their own interests
Note: Comparisons can be less interesting than contrasts unless you write a comparison essay
when you know that the points to compare are interesting, unusual or unexpected.
The contrast essay discusses how two things are not similar; it contrasts or
discusses differences. The contrast essay presents a totally different point of view.
The thesis of the contrast essay also includes:
• the topic (two topics to contrast)
• the controlling idea (take a position)
• the branches (points or categories)
Thesis Statement B: The two major political parties, the Republican and the Democratic
Parties, are different in the way they protect the country, the people, and their own interests.
The comparison and contrast essay discusses how two things are similar and also different,
it compares and contrasts two points in one essay.
The thesis of the comparison and contrast essay also includes:

Each year on or around June 15, communities and municipalities around the world plan activities and programs to recognize World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, a day set aside to spread awareness of the abuse of the elderly (Center of Excellence on Elder Abuse & Neglect, 2013). The abuse of older adults is a growing concern and statistics suggest that the number of elders experiencing abuse is an alarmingly high number. Research suggests that close to half the people diagnosed with dementia experience some form of abuse (Cooper, C., Selwood, A., Blanchard, M., Walker, Z., Blizard, R., & Livingston, G., 2009; Wiglesworth, A., Mosqueda, L., Mulnard, R., Liao, S., Gibbs, L., & Fitzgerald, W., 2010, as cited on http://www.ncea.aoa.gov/Library/Data/index.aspx). Elder abuse takes on many forms and can include physical, emotional, psychological, and economic abuse. The legendary American actor, Mickey Rooney, spoke to the United States Senate, describing his own experiences of pain and neglect at the hands of his stepson, asking legislators to take seriously the abuse of the elderly.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
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.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
