Risk of Doing Business in China
Risks in Doing Business in China E Y China Key Points For multinational companies, China s market
has started to come of age. Despite the opportunities along with China s WTO entry and opening up,
doing business in China remains very challenging at the operational level for MNCs. Regulatory Risks
Managing the regulatory environment remains a real issue for foreign firms operating in China. They
have to learn how to deal with red tape, guanxi (relationship) and make breakthrough in the thicket of
regulations and restrictions. Entry Modes Different entry modes bring different risks and returns.
Foreign enterprises should weigh and balance those risk factors. Mergers and Acquisitions With ...

These issues affect all companies, but present the most serious challenge to small foreign firms that
are new to China and lack international and country specific experience. Larger firms are coming up
with strategies to address these issues, if not resolve them. Regulatory Risks Overview During the last
few years much of the economy has been deregulated, a process that was well under way before
December 2001, the date of China s accession to the WTO. During the 1990s almost all of the former
industrial ministries and state commissions were abolished, cutting the number of institutions and
officials at the centre looking to be involved in business affairs. Some old school planning
apparatchiks have no doubt survived but there are fewer options for them to slake their thirst for
control. Many state owned enterprises have been sold off and a large proportion of those that remain
have lost market share to private domestic firms and foreign invested enterprises (FIEs). China s
thicket of regulations has been cut back and the rules that remain have gradually become more
institutionalized. The picture that characterized much of the 1980s and 1990s everyone from
multinational managers to Chinese officials groping their way forward, often making things up as they
went along is no longer representative of the business environment. Foreign firms in different sectors

Jaywalking Research Paper
Factors Behind Jaywalking
As researchers, we are interested in the topic of Jaywalking. We specifically want to find out through
our survey why people jaywalk and what factors may affect how often they jaywalk. We will send this
survey through a variety of different methods. Three methods will be used mail, e mail, and telephone.
We will give out 200 surveys for each of the different methods. We will also have dedicated staff for
each of these methods which will all rotate to look at each of the methods results. We will target the
general population of Fresno and will randomly select people to send out the surveys to. One of the
first we will ask is if they have ever seen somebody jaywalking. We will also define what jaywalking
is. The second question will ask if they know jaywalking is illegal. This will give us an idea of how
well informed the public is about this type of infraction. Next, we will ask a series of demographic
questions in the survey. One of the first demographic questions is the age of the participant. So that
going forward with the survey we have an idea of what outside factors affect them depending on their
age. It will set up the next question, which is a contingency question. If they answer yes then they will

Blanche Dubois Madness
In A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams, madness plays a large role in the main character
of Blanche. However, William allows Blanche s character to fall into the stereotypical role of the
insane character. Where as madness is highly feminized in a character such as Blanche who is
personified as being a delusional alcoholic; male characters are given positive ad artistic qualities such
as Darl Bundren from As I Lay Dying by, William Faulkner. There is an inequality of the sexes that
arises in relations to madness in literature.

Insanity has also been characterized as behaviors that exist outside of patriarchy. To escape a system
that dominates women relies on her losing her inner most femaleness, therefore repressing their true
womanhood. For example, Blanche is obsessed with the idea of being pure. The southern bell persona
is an act, she lies about how much she drinks. She lies about her background and tries to make herself
appear pristine. Blanche s eccentric behavior is the root of her lies. She recognizes that her behavior is
eccentric, but doesn t want other people to look at her in a negative light. This attitude only promotes
her delusional behavior. She is consumed with being something other than herself. Insanity has also
been use to define women who resist patriarchy. Wallace states, insane female characters as women
who were labeled insane because they were a threat to the dominant culture. (302) This is the case of

Nonverbal Communication Journal Analysis
While I was reading chapter 6, nonverbal communication, it was interesting reading about how much
people communicate without using words. Before reading this chapter, I had no idea that there are so
many types of nonverbal communication. One of the major ways that we nonverbally communicate is
through facial expressions. Personally, I have never considered touching someone as communication,
but it really is. For example, if someone is sad and are given a hug it is telling that person that they
care about them. The three terms that I will be addressing in my journal are emoji, gesticulation, and

The United States, Colonialism, And Imperialism
Throughout american history, examples of the United States domination of the political, economic,
and social aspects of other countries can be seen. This domination, also known as imperialism, was
primarily caused by a growing sense of nationalism, the influence of supply and demand, and a desire
to maintain global military power. Imperialism is categorized into three different groups: colony,
protectorate, sphere of influence. TRANSITION SENTENCE
Colony imperialism is when a territory or other area of lady is governed directly by a foreign country.
A prime example of colony imperialism is the Purchase of Alaska. The United States Secretary of
States, William Seward wanted Alaska since 1860 because of its potential trade value and resources
such as timber, gold, and trout. The purchase of Alaska began in June 30th 1861 when gold was
discovered in Alaska for the first time, sparking the United States and other colonizing powers interest
in the territory. Russia feared that they would lose Alaska so they began to discuss selling it to the
United State in 1866. . There was disapproval on both sides of the trade. Russian were upset at the
amount of money put into settling Alaskan territories that would be lost after the sale of Alaska.

A Study On Big Five Factor Model
A study was conducted to test using the Big Five Factor Model (Costa McCrae, 1995) to measure
whether different personalities can or cannot be observed with a group of 1006 Inuit children from
Northern Canada who spoke the Inuktitut language between the ages of 9 to 12 year old who were
recruited for the study. The International Personality Item Pool (IPIP) measure scale was used and the
five item measure scales selected were: (Extraversion, Neuroticism, Openness, Agreeableness
Conscientiousness) , (Goldberg, 1999). The study produced results that Conscientiousness scored the
highest amongst the Inuit children more than expected. This could have been due to the nurturing and
parenting styles of the Inuit community. There is a need for further studies to be conducted with the
parents, caregivers, and educators of the Inuit children to confirm whether their personality findings
was correct. Extended research may have findings of significant differences depending on the
researchers, questionnaires and the interpretation of the data.

Bourdieu s Understanding the Power for Social Change
Bourdieu describes habitus as a power of adaptation. It constantly performs an adaptation to the
outside world which only exceptionally takes the form of radical conversion (Bourdieu, 1993).
Bourdieu s concept of habitus enables us to understand women as a complex amalgam of their past
and present (Bourdieu, 1990a), but an amalgam that is always in the process of completion. There is
no finality or finished identity. At the same time, habitus also includes a set of complex, diverse
predispositions. It invokes understandings of identity premised on familial legacy and early childhood
socialisation. As such, it is primarily a dynamic concept, a rich interlacing of past and present,
interiorised and permeating both body and psyche. Much of the dynamism of habitus is the product of
the interconnection of habitus with Bourdieu s related concept of field. Field is a set of objective,
historical relations between positions anchored in certain forms of power (or capital) (Wacquant in
Bourdieu Wacquant, 1992, p. 16). A dialectic relationship exists be tween the two concepts. In one
direction there is a flow of influence from field to habitus that produces a relationship of conditioning
in which the field structures the habitus. When Bourdieu refers to , is usually referring to the different
types of capitals that one person can acquire. These capitals are economic, linguistic, and cultural
(Bourdieu, 1991). Depending of the quantity of each of these capitals, a person is

Following a practice not uncommon among those of Scotch Irish ancestry, Mattie and John Truman
gave their son the one letter middle name of S . Harry s early years were spent on Mattie s father s

administrative rather than judicial and held some control over the disposition of municipal funds.
Truman won the 1922 election, but lost in his 1924 re election bid. The county courthouse was home

Leukemia
B. Background Info
Leukemia comes from the Greek words for white and blood and is often considered a disease for
children, but actually affects far more adults. This disease is classified as a cancer that usually begins
in the bone marrow provoked by an abnormal rise in the number of white blood cells. The white blood
cells crowd out other blood cell elements such as red blood cells and platelets. The body starts
producing more white cells than it needs, and at the same time many of them do not mature normally,
and tend to live well beyond their normal life period. Even though the body develops a vast numbers
of cells this is not considered a benefit because these leukemia cells are not capable of battling
infection the way they should. Also, they interfere with vital organ functions such as the production of
healthy blood cells. Eventually, red blood cells are unable to supply oxygen, platelets to ensure correct
clotting, normal white blood cells can t deal infection.
Leukemia can be classified as acute or chronic. The cells in acute leukemia start multiplying before
they develop beyond their immature stage. Chronic leukemia progress when the cells developing their
full maturity. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

However, this system did not benefits citizens in any collective ways and is gradually been abolished
(Czamanski and Benchetrit 2004). Howard s vision of social reform achieved through community
ownership of land never materialised. While Canberra was deeply touched by his idea, yet the direct
economic impact is some what minimal.
Garden city was subject to limited growth and limited population. Howard (1965) anticipated that the
garden city would have a population of 30,000 32,000 in the town and other 2,000 in the agricultural
lands. When the city reaches its limits, it would replicate itself in a new community separated by a
greenbelt yet connected by railways. The published sketch in figure 1 suggests the garden city to be
circular, though Howard (1965) conceded that the shape was suggestive. Canberra was not expected to
be a large city. Still, Griffin planned the city for 45,000, this was reached by 1960. By 1965 it was
78,000 and in 2004 the population was around 330,000. The population is anticipated to grow to
500,000 in the next 25 years. (Firth n.d) This does not show any indication of limited population that

Physician-Assisted Suicide is Morally and Ethically...
The long time debate over medically assisted suicide, the presence of a doctor at a patient s suicide,
resurfaced again with the conviction of doctor Jack Kevorkian. Kevorkian was convicted of second
degree murder when he euthanized, or administered the injection himself, Thomas Youk on September
17, 1998. Dr. Kevorkian, an advocate and practitioner of medically assisted suicides, has many
opponents on the issue. Opponents say that it is unethical and even with the consent of the patient that
the procedure is still a homicide and not suicide. I plan to show that physician assisted suicide is
morally and ethically acceptable, that court cases and laws have proven it to be acceptable, and that it
is better than other alternatives. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The moral and ethical aspects of physician assisted suicide are important ones that shouldn t be
overlooked. In virtually all cases of assisted suicide the pain and suffering experienced by the patient
is unrelievable. Although it is important to go to great lengths to try and ease the suffering through
traditional medicine, often times it s just not enough. When the traditional approach fails sometimes
more drastic approaches are necessary. One such measure that has come to be highly controversial in
this decade is physician assisted suicide. This form of suicide is hotly debated because it isn t just a
mere suicide, but a planned out social contract between two or more people. The basis for my
argument for assisted suicide rests in the values of individual self determination or autonomy and
individual well being. Self determination is central to the issue because a person should be able to
choose how to live their life or in this case, how to die.
Individual self determination is especially important in choices about the specifics of one s death
(Weir 89). Most people, no matter what the nature of their death is, are very concerned with the last
stages of their lives. This concern reflects the person s desire to retain dignity and control during this
last period of life, assisted suicide gives them that control and dignity. As far as individual well being,

Personal Narrative On Getting Chased By Goats
This I Believe
Getting chased by goats was a fun experience. I believe that being cautious and careful is incredibly
important, and to not take warnings lightly. I believe this because being cautious could save your life

and cause mild to serious injury. This event happened in San Rafael, Jalisco, Mexico a couple of

we could walk on top of the walls and get to a red platform overlooking the place. Us seven through

Aristotle s Role Of Luck And Chance As Causes For Change
When discussing probability, a text of my previous reading came to mind. Within the lecture Physics
II, much of Aristotle s work is concerned with providing a definition for various events and subjects,
and as such, identifying the types of causes for each event is an important step in accomplishing this
goal. Aristotle specifically investigates the role of luck and chance as causes of change. Although we
commonly speak of luck or chance as being a cause, Aristotle purposefully refrains from including
them in his explanation of causes. When giving an account of our observable world, I agree with
Aristotle in that there is no place for luck and chance as causes of events, yet I believe they do have a
role, namely in predicting future events.
Aristotle specifically separates causes into four different categories, material cause, formal cause,
efficient cause, and final cause. He defines these causes as that from which, as a constituent present in
it, ... the form i.e., the pattern, ... the source of the primary principle of change, ... something s end .
Respectively, these describe what something is made of, the form or pattern to which is corresponds,

Mujahideens In Afghanistan
Afghanistan is a mountainous region in Central Asia that is home to more than 30 million people, with
a history that goes back thousands of years. Some of the biggest events that occurred in Afghanistan s
history are the Soviet Afghan War that stretched over ten years, the rise of the Taliban and the
establishment of the newest constitution that was put in place to help aid to the recovery of
Afghanistan. The state of Afghanistan has undergone many events throughout its history with each
event setting the stage for the following one. Since it has always been a country with little stability

The fighting was between groups that developed within the state called mujahideens. One of the most
popular mujahideen groups to emerge during this time period is called the Taliban, which had
developed into the dominant political and military force. It formed in the early 1990s and consisted of
men and students who didn t like like Soviets in power. One of the reasons that it became popular very
quickly was that it offered a chance of reaching stability within Afghanistan. By the year of 1996 the
Taliban had taken control over the capital, Kabul. During the same year the leader of another terrorist
group called Al Qaeda moved to Afghanistan, and the members of the Taliban graciously accepted
Osama Bin Laden. At the same time the U.S. was trying to get Bin Laden out of hiding so they asked
Afghanistan and the Taliban if they would give him up to them, but they disregarded it. Years later on
September 11th 2001Al Qaeda attacked the U.S. Targeting the Pentagon which was located in Virginia
and the Twin Towers, in New York City. Once again the U.S. asked for the release of Bin Laden but

Theme Of Death In The Ambassadors
In the works performed by Virginia Woolf s novel, To The Lighthouse, Pessoa s play The Mariner, and
Holbein s anamorphic painting The Ambassadors , death is a prevalent presence that lingers in the
realm of the living. It is an order of nature that embodies all life from the moment it begins. While all
three works portray the temporality of life, they each shape the aura of death in various ways. In The
Mariner, death is introduced in the form of a corpse. The manifestation of fear and discomfort
becomes the crux of Pessoa s play whereas in the painting of The Ambassadors , death exists through
a distorted image of a skull that could only come into focus when viewed from an oblique angle,
making the skull a grim symbolism of decay that engulfs the dead body. Lastly, in To The Lighthouse,
death is observed through mourning and remembering the ones whom they have lost. Just as mourning

As the product of death is apparent and unsettling, it connects the watchers fates to a natural social
order of life of which the two cannot be within the same sphere without causing discomfort. When
looking at the corpse in the coffin, the second watcher says, Three of us are listening... No, not just
three... I don t know... I don t know how many (Pessoa, 56). Hence, the second watcher has defined
the corpse as a physical representation of the dead that does not belong neither amongst the living nor
the afterlife just yet. It is in a state of departure from life and journeying into the afterlife. The corpse s
uncanny resemblance to a living, sleeping person provides a dark and inconsolable reality of death s
permanence. The transitional journey of the corpse from life to the afterlife carries an intense

Statement of Rhetorical Analysis On February 22, 2016 author John Warner published an article on

structure this type of essay holds. Writers are locked inside a cage of regulations and guidelines
making them unable to write the essay as they please, but rather having to piece together regulated
sentences and paragraphs because that s what they have been told would score high on certain test

Comparing And Contrasting Two Sonnets
Comparing and Contrasting Two Sonnets
Sonnet 116 by William Shakespeare and What Lips My Lips Have Kissed, And Where, And Why by
Edna St. Vincent Millay are both sonnets that discuss companionship and a glimpse of each poet s
experiences. In Sonnet 116 , Shakespeare illustrates how capability is weakened by its metaphysical
stereotype and ideals such as, love, while on the contrary, in What Lips My Lips Have Kissed, And
Where, And Why Millay feeds on the chaos between the ideal of love and its harsh reality, heartbreak.
Both poets seem to be love struck but there is a significant difference in the two. I will compare and
contrast Sonnet 116 by William Shakespeare and What Lips My Lips Have Kissed, And Where, And
Why by Edna St. Vincent Millay. I will also inquire and analyze why this particular form of poetry
established different effects.
What Lips My Lips Have Kissed, and Where and Why and Sonnet 116 are, in fact, two different
sonnets. What Lips My Lips Have Kissed, and Where and Why is a Petrarchan or Italian sonnet; Due
to the fact, that this sonnet has a rhyme scheme that divides the first eight lines from the last six lines.
By dividing the poem, the rhyme scheme helps to emphasize the theme. The overall theme of the

The work titled Winged Protective Deity hails from the Assyrian empire and was created sometime in
the early to mid 800s BCE. The Assyrian empire was located in what is today known as Northern Iraq.
Assyrians were recognized as fearsome and ruthless conquerors of the ancient near east. This relief
sculpture features a winged male figure pollinating a sacred tree and it would have decorated the walls
of Ashurnasirpal II s Northwest Palace at Calakh. Assyrian kings often commissioned relief sculptures

This would have been on the walls of Ashurnasirpal II s palace so it would have been seen by both

shows up in Assyrian art is the idea of showing the strength of Assyrian warriors by also showing the
strength of their opponents. This can be seen in another relief sculpture from the Northwest Palace
Assyrian archers pursuing enemies, where the enemies are depicted as almost giants yet they are seen
fleeing across the Euphrates river from the Assyrian archers (Kleiner, Gardner s Art through the Ages:

Feminity and Sexual Desires in The Storm by Kate Chopin
The Storm is a story Written by Kate Chopin. The time at which the story was set is in the 19th
century. The story was set in Louisiana and in real sense, Louisiana is a place that is best known for
violent storms. The story is about is a confrontation of the theme of femininity and complexities of the
married people in the storm. The storm is used throughout the story, and it only ends after the
characters, Alcee and Calixta s sexual encounter, which brings out the theme of femininity, and sexual
desires. Kate Chopin opens her story with the storm brewing, which keeps Calixta s husband away
from her stormy passions. She makes the storm so natural that one can never foreshadow what the
storm symbolizes. The storm is always depicted as something dangerous, and destructive, but Chopin
depicts the storm in her story as something that is good, and fulfilling. The characters were happy, and
fulfilled after the storm ended instead of it causing destructions. Chopin introduces of theme of
femininity, and its complexities in marriage, a theme which she later develops throughout the story
using the image of the storm. She presents the image of the Storm in its natural life when she says, the
storm kept Bobinot away from his wife Calixta, because he had to stay in the general store, until it

Analysis Of William Wordsworth s Macbeth Essay
STORY ANALYSIS WORKSHEET
The Protagonist: Romney Wordsworth
The Protagonist s Chief Want: Wordsworth chief want is to reveal to the chancellor that every human
being has purpose, worth, and a voice. The value of one s life is not simply based on his or her
conformity to the various edicts set forth by the State. In order to achieve his chief want, Romney is
willing to sacrifice his own life. At the end of the story, Romney relinquishes his life and the
chancellor escapes. After Romney s death, it seems as though the chancellor learned nothing from his
near death experience in Wordsworth room; yet, upon being pronounced obsolete , the chancellor
desperately screams in anguish that his life contains purpose and worth. Thus, Wordsworth fulfilled
his chief want through his life and death.
The Inciting Incident: The inciting incident begins when the chancellor finds Wordsworth guilty of
being an obsolete man. Wordsworth understands that merely arguing his position will yield unfruitful
results; rather, he will only convince the chancellor through his actions.

Skipping Class Is The Best Years Of Your Life
School is boring, says half of American students who routinely skips (Azuz). Many students think

The Labor Market Of China
Introduction The labor market in china has its unique features: cheap labor and huge labor force.
These features have attracted many foreign investments and a consequently, the state owned
enterprises started to suffer from competition. All these changes forced China to reform is labor
relation system. This report aims to analyze the strengths and weakness of labor relation system in
china, especially in terms of the strengths and issues in labor market and training. 1 Outperformance
of labor markets in china 1.1 Increasing total employment It is well known that China has a rapid
economic growth over the past three decade. In order to cope with fast changing economy, the China s
labor market has experienced a significant transition from central controlled labor market to more
market oriented labor market. This was primarily due to the growing importance of private enterprises
and foreign investments, and the reform of state owned enterprises (Chan Peng, 2011). The new
market oriented market has stimulated the total employment from 170.4 million people been
employed in 1990 to 293.5 million people in 2007(NBS, 2007). The growth of employment can be
attributed to the generally improved employment conditions since the new labor laws introduced more
stringent health and safety standards, as well as minimum wages (Allard Garot, 2010). 1.2 Shift in

of the word changed to mean to speak or to talk. The word rap also has many ties to the African griots

This was very similar to today s emceeing techniques of getting the crowd involved. Not only did the
singing become a way to cope with the hardships but they also used a type of rapping to communicate
to each other while their owner or master was present. The slaves had to learn to speak in a broken
very fast paced way of speaking and they taught themselves how to play on words and communicate
to each other making sure they were the only ones able to understand the conversation. Since then this
way of communicating evolved into a very popular musical style in the United States and around the
world as Hip Hop and Rap. The commercial music industry has since greatly profited off of this style
and form of music grossing nearly one billion dollars annually. Due to the increased popularity of
gangster rap in the American culture, many people of all ages misunderstand the meaning behind this

Sexuality of the Frontierswoman in Grey s Riders of the Purple Sage and Doctorow s Welcome to

The presentation of femininity in Doctorow s Welcome to Hard Times is a strong departure from the
heroine of Zane Grey s Riders of the Purple Sage. Through the metaphor of the gun as the
embodiment of masculinity, both authors closely examine the complexities of the sexualized
relationship of a frontierswoman to the men of her society. Doctorow mirrors the tensions present in
Grey s novel though Molly acts as an extraordinarily different vision of what the West required of a

The book opens with the failure of Blue s manhood. He, bearing the title of Mayor, failed to have both
the courage and the skill to protect the town, especially the women, from the Bad Man. Molly mocks
his failure even as she watches Blue fill the cylinders of [his] gun : Christ that Bad Man s the only
man in town!...I can t believe it...using a lady, for Godsake, marching brave behind a lady s skirts
(Doctorow 16). This moment, with Blue symbolically taking up his manhood and with Molly
simultaneously deriding his status as a man, encompasses much of the tension between the failed
masculinity of the citizens of Hard Times and their feminine counterparts. Ultimately, Blue s gun fails
him and he is saved from the Bad Man s superior skill and ruthlessness only by Molly s struggling and
pulling (19).
Doctorow s portrayal of failed masculinity as the founding sin of Hard Times contrasts strongly with
the more traditional Western. Zane Grey s Riders of the Purple Sage is a close parallel in many ways
to the opening of Welcome to Hard Times. The scene opens with the Bad Man of the piece, Tull,
preparing to whip Venters. Venters failure to defend himself comes as a result of surrendering his guns
to Jane s safekeeping. This symbolic castration leaves him at the mercy of the other men, and leaving
him behind a lady s skirts (Doctorow 16). Jane risks herself and places herself in the enmity of the

The Development Of Luxury Industry
People love luxury. Some people think it stands for fashion, and some people think it stands for a
social stratum, but in common, people think it stands for rich and success. However, is it really a
symbol of success? Or, it is just the satisfaction of vanity? People can see what famous people use and
wear in television or magazine in their daily lives which gives them a model of rich people s lives.
Luxury usually plays a big role. People s vanities push them to spend a huge amount of their income
on purchasing luxuries so that they can look more similar to the famous people who they idolize with.
Generation to generation, using luxury to measure whether one is success or not becomes a culture,
and rich becomes the synonym of success in the society. The development of luxury industry benefits
by this unhealthy culture; at the same time, people s vanities also be expended by luxury which cause
the distorted definition of success. The development of luxury industry never leaves human s vanity.
People want to look rich but not poor, specially, in United States and under American Dream.

Buchholtz et al., (1998) found that compensation committee members with close relationships to
CEOs made more favourable decisions about CEOs than those with more distant relationships.
CEO s human capital, age tenure Harris and Helfat (1997) classified the human capital at three levels
a) generic skills which are transferable across industries, businesses or firms; b) industry specific skills
which can be transferred only to the firms that operate in that industry; and c) firm specific skills
which cannot be transferred outside of the firm. They investigated the relationship between the impact
of these skills on CEO compensation for both internal and external successors and concluded that
differential skill specificity is associated with pay premiums to external successors. CEO s age tenure
may play an important role but the studies conducted were unable to test for this due to lack of
relevant data (Tosi et al., 2000; Buchholtz et al., 1998).

It is not logical to invest a significant amount of federal funds into airline security employment if there

utilizes a significantly less amount of funding, but continues to perform its tasks. The Trump
administration plans to eliminate three airport security programs that were implemented after the 9/11
terrorist attack: Visible Intermodal Prevention and Response program that conduct random sweeps
through airports and other modes of transportation, Behavior Detection Officer program that identifies
potentially high risk individuals exhibiting behavior indicative of excessiveness then re routes them
for additional screening, and the grant program to support local police at airports, specifically, likely
target cities. (Halsey) These plans indicate that the Trump administration believes that the termination
of these programs will increase the budget for the Department of Homeland Security, but does not
reduce the number of TSA officers at checkpoints. There is also more funding for the government to
invest in other areas to improve the security for the general public. There is also a current decline in
airport staffing. In this report, the TSA admits that TSO staffing levels fell from 47,147 full time

emotions because those topics are very controversial and cause many people to end friendships, but
not for Coretta. Maya also appeals to the audience when she talks about sending flowers and cards
because they rarely saw each other. This affected the audience because many people in the audience
know how that feels. Another way that Maya appeals to the audience through pathos is using humor
that will help the audience relax. First, Maya told the audience that they would call each other girl
because it was a black woman thing to do, she told the audience that in their 70th decade they still said
it (Angelou, n.d., para. 9). Maya also brings humor into the argument when she told the audience that
she would tell her sister jokes that were not meant for the presence of anyone but the two of them
(Angelou, n.d., para. 11). The reason Maya used humor in her argument is simply the fact that it is

Leaders could be pro athletes, popular musicians but people such the Kardashians are not what I view
as a leader. The pro athletes who are leaders are the ones who are good people on and off the field.
The ones who have their own foundations or charities. I do not believe the Kardashians deserve the
name leader because they do things for themselves and not other people, which is not a quality of a
leader. The two main qualities all leaders should have in common are their approach to inspire, their
ability to lead by example. Being able to inspire people to do what they love makes you a great leader.
Also being able to inspire their team is great

Patriarchy In The Woman Warrior
Unlike math or science, most literature is often open to different interpretations; within every novel
there is an inevitable grey area in what an author exactly means to convey to their readers. The same is
undeniably true within Maxine Hong Kingston s memoir The Woman Warrior, a nonlinear
hodgepodge of ghosts, white tiger and tongues. In the traditional roman fleuve, the protagonist strives
to reconcile self and society so that they can construct a coherent self and achieve wholeness, in The
Woman Warrior however, Kingston cannot reconcile. The fact is, Kingston has internalized so many
doctrinal values of the patriarchy, that she incapable of discerning a middle ground between slavery
and rebellion. Throughout the memoir it is apparent ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
There was one knot so complicated that it blinded the knot maker. Finally, an emperor outlawed this
cruel knot and the nobles could not order it anymore. If [Kingston] had lived in China, [Kingston]
would have been an outlaw knot maker. (163). The story harkens back to all the previous buttons and
frogs that were strung together and the reader is reminded that each story Kingston has told is
outlawed and forbidden. With Kingston as the knot maker, all these unspoken tales of suicide, sitting
ghosts and women warriors are combined into one cruel knot that Kingston utilizes as her weapon
against the suppression of her culture. Kingston, in finally finding her voice through these forbidden
stories, leads a triumphant act of rebellion against the traditional Chinese silence that has haunted her

How Does Linda Loman Present Willy s Wife In Death Of A...
Admiration of Linda Loman A women s place in society during 1940s and 50s was to stay at home,
make babies, be a happy home maker, and above all be a devoted wife (People Events 2017). Linda
Loman, Willy s wife in Death of a Salesman, fit this role perfectly. She protects her husband s dreams,
and behaves as a perfect wife and mother throughout the play. Linda is the most levelheaded character
in the play, she is stern with her children and sees life realistically. Linda is undoubtedly a woman
worthy of admiration. Linda stays at home and makes sure the household runs smoothly, so the men in

Willy: Biff! Where is he? Why is he taking everything? Linda: He s too rough with the girls, Willy. All
the mothers are afraid of him!
Linda scolds both boys when they leave Willy at the restaurant to run off with two girls, she tells them
You re a pair of animals! Not one, not another living soul would have had the cruelty to walk out on
that man in a restaurant! (2.783). For all the situations that Linda s boys disappointed her she still
stands behind them, stating Be good. You re both good boys, just act that way, that s all (2.902). Linda
s actions and words show her sternness as a mother and her soft caring side. Linda is fiercely devoted
to her husband, and shows this throughout the play. She continuously shows Willy emotional support
and cares for him in a loving protective way. When Willy is getting down on himself Linda is there to
reassure him (1.329 332): Willy: I gotta overcome it. I know I gotta overcome it. I m not dressing to

Essay About My First Motorcycle
My name is Justin Stapp and I would like to tell you about all of the challenges I faced when buying
my first motorcycle. I have wanted to buy a motorcycle since I received my learners permit to drive a
car. I went through many steps and it took a pretty long time to get this goal accomplished. Lots of
hard work and time was put into my venture.
The first step that I took in my challenge was to research and find out what kind of bike that I wanted
to ride. I didn t want a bike that was too small and that I would want to upgrade quickly and have to
spend even more money, so I found a medium sized bike to start out on. I decided to look for a 600cc
bike, thinking that this would suit my needs until I am ready to upgrade to a bigger size motor. I am
not a small person in size but I am new to riding and need to ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net
...
I worked nights and weekends for minimum wage, which took a long time to save up money. I couldn
t buy a bike with the first few paychecks that I received because I had to buy car insurance for the car
my parents bought me. After I paid all of those bills, I was able to start saving for the bike. After the
summer ended, I quit working at Dairy Queen and began my Junior year in High School in my
hometown. Over the course of that school year, I had worked for a construction company that made
staircases for new homes. I saved part of each paycheck and was able to build my motorcycle fund up
to $2000.00. I planned on finding a bike for around $1500.00.
After searching CraigsList day and night for many months, I found the bike I was looking for. I spoke
with the seller many times and we talked about his experience with this particular motorcycle. It had
been his first bike and he had worked on it until it was built how he wanted it. He worked on it and
painted it himself. He painted it a mystic metallic blue and purple. We settled on a day and time to

Despite the opportunities along with China s WTO entry and opening up, doing business in China remains very challenging at the operational level for MNCs. Regulatory Risks Managing the regulatory environment remains a real issue for foreign firms operating in China.

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... These issues affect all companies, but present the most serious challenge to small foreign firms that are new to China and lack international and country specific experience. Larger firms are coming up with strategies to address these issues, if not resolve them. Regulatory Risks Overview During the last few years much of the economy has been deregulated, a process that was well under way before December 2001, the date of China s accession to the WTO. During the 1990s almost all of the former industrial ministries and state commissions were abolished, cutting the number of institutions and officials at the centre looking to be involved in business affairs. Some old school planning apparatchiks have no doubt survived but there are fewer options for them to slake their thirst for control. Many state owned enterprises have been sold off and a large proportion of those that remain have lost market share to private domestic firms and foreign invested enterprises (FIEs). China s thicket of regulations has been cut back and the rules that remain have gradually become more institutionalized. The picture that characterized much of the 1980s and 1990s everyone from multinational managers to Chinese officials groping their way forward, often making things up as they went along is no longer representative of the business environment.

We specifically want to find out through our survey why people jaywalk and what factors may affect how often they jaywalk. We will send this survey through a variety of different methods. Three methods will be used mail, e mail, and telephone. We will give out 200 surveys for each of the different methods. We will also have dedicated staff for each of these methods which will all rotate to look at each of the methods results. We will target the general population of Fresno and will randomly select people to send out the surveys to. One of the first we will ask is if they have ever seen somebody jaywalking. We will also define what jaywalking is. The second question will ask if they know jaywalking is illegal. This will give us an idea of how well informed the public is about this type of infraction. Next, we will ask a series of demographic questions in the survey. One of the first demographic questions is the age of the participant. So that going forward with the survey we have an idea of what outside factors affect them depending on their age. It will set up the next question, which is a contingency question.

However, William allows Blanche s character to fall into the stereotypical role of the insane character. Where as madness is highly feminized in a character such as Blanche who is personified as being a delusional alcoholic; male characters are given positive ad artistic qualities such as Darl Bundren from As I Lay Dying by, William Faulkner.

To escape a system that dominates women relies on her losing her inner most femaleness, therefore repressing their true womanhood. For example, Blanche is obsessed with the idea of being pure. The southern bell persona is an act, she lies about how much she drinks. She lies about her background and tries to make herself appear pristine. Blanche s eccentric behavior is the root of her lies. She recognizes that her behavior is eccentric, but doesn t want other people to look at her in a negative light. This attitude only promotes her delusional behavior. She is consumed with being something other than herself. Insanity has also been use to define women who resist patriarchy. Wallace states, insane female characters as women who were labeled insane because they were a threat to the dominant culture. (302) This is the case of Blanche in relations to ...

Before reading this chapter, I had no idea that there are so many types of nonverbal communication. One of the major ways that we nonverbally communicate is through facial expressions. Personally, I have never considered touching someone as communication, but it really is. For example, if someone is sad and are given a hug it is telling that person that they care about them.

  • 13. The United States, Colonialism, And Imperialism Throughout american history, examples of the United States domination of the political, economic, and social aspects of other countries can be seen. This domination, also known as imperialism, was primarily caused by a growing sense of nationalism, the influence of supply and demand, and a desire to maintain global military power. Imperialism is categorized into three different groups: colony, protectorate, sphere of influence. TRANSITION SENTENCE Colony imperialism is when a territory or other area of lady is governed directly by a foreign country. A prime example of colony imperialism is the Purchase of Alaska. The United States Secretary of States, William Seward wanted Alaska since 1860 because of its potential trade value and resources such as timber, gold, and trout. The purchase of Alaska began in June 30th 1861 when gold was discovered in Alaska for the first time, sparking the United States and other colonizing powers interest in the territory. Russia feared that they would lose Alaska so they began to discuss selling it to the United State in 1866. . There was disapproval on both sides of the trade. Russian were upset at the amount of money put into settling Alaskan territories that would be lost after the sale of Alaska.

A Study On Big Five Factor Model A study was conducted to test using the Big Five Factor Model (Costa McCrae, 1995) to measure whether different personalities can or cannot be observed with a group of 1006 Inuit children from Northern Canada who spoke the Inuktitut language between the ages of 9 to 12 year old who were recruited for the study. The International Personality Item Pool (IPIP) measure scale was used and the five item measure scales selected were: (Extraversion, Neuroticism, Openness, Agreeableness Conscientiousness) , (Goldberg, 1999). The study produced results that Conscientiousness scored the highest amongst the Inuit children more than expected.

  • 15. Bourdieu s Understanding the Power for Social Change Bourdieu describes habitus as a power of adaptation. It constantly performs an adaptation to the outside world which only exceptionally takes the form of radical conversion (Bourdieu, 1993). Bourdieu s concept of habitus enables us to understand women as a complex amalgam of their past and present (Bourdieu, 1990a), but an amalgam that is always in the process of completion. There is no finality or finished identity. At the same time, habitus also includes a set of complex, diverse predispositions. It invokes understandings of identity premised on familial legacy and early childhood socialisation. As such, it is primarily a dynamic concept, a rich interlacing of past and present, interiorised and permeating both body and psyche. Much of the dynamism of habitus is the product of the interconnection of habitus with Bourdieu s related concept of field. Field is a set of objective, historical relations between positions anchored in certain forms of power (or capital) (Wacquant in Bourdieu Wacquant, 1992, p. 16). A dialectic relationship exists be tween the two concepts. In one direction there is a flow of influence from field to habitus that produces a relationship of conditioning in which the field structures the habitus. When Bourdieu refers to , is usually referring to the different types of capitals that one person can acquire. These capitals are economic, linguistic, and cultural (Bourdieu, 1991).

Background Info Leukemia comes from the Greek words for white and blood and is often considered a disease for children, but actually affects far more adults. This disease is classified as a cancer that usually begins in the bone marrow provoked by an abnormal rise in the number of white blood cells. The white blood cells crowd out other blood cell elements such as red blood cells and platelets. The body starts producing more white cells than it needs, and at the same time many of them do not mature normally, and tend to live well beyond their normal life period. Even though the body develops a vast numbers of cells this is not considered a benefit because these leukemia cells are not capable of battling infection the way they should. Also, they interfere with vital organ functions such as the production of healthy blood cells. Eventually, red blood cells are unable to supply oxygen, platelets to ensure correct clotting, normal white blood cells can t deal infection. Leukemia can be classified as acute or chronic. The cells in acute leukemia start multiplying before they develop beyond their immature stage. Chronic leukemia progress when the cells developing their full maturity. ...

Garden city was subject to limited growth and limited population. Howard (1965) anticipated that the garden city would have a population of 30,000 32,000 in the town and other 2,000 in the agricultural lands. When the city reaches its limits, it would replicate itself in a new community separated by a greenbelt yet connected by railways.

Still, Griffin planned the city for 45,000, this was reached by 1960. By 1965 it was 78,000 and in 2004 the population was around 330,000.

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The moral and ethical aspects of physician assisted suicide are important ones that shouldn t be overlooked. In virtually all cases of assisted suicide the pain and suffering experienced by the patient is unrelievable. Although it is important to go to great lengths to try and ease the suffering through traditional medicine, often times it s just not enough. When the traditional approach fails sometimes more drastic approaches are necessary. One such measure that has come to be highly controversial in this decade is physician assisted suicide. This form of suicide is hotly debated because it isn t just a mere suicide, but a planned out social contract between two or more people. The basis for my argument for assisted suicide rests in the values of individual self determination or autonomy and individual well being. Self determination is central to the issue because a person should be able to choose how to live their life or in this case, how to die. Individual self determination is especially important in choices about the specifics of one s death (Weir 89). Most people, no matter what the nature of their death is, are very concerned with the last stages of their lives. This concern reflects the person s desire to retain dignity and control during this last period of life, assisted suicide gives them that control and dignity.

Within the lecture Physics II, much of Aristotle s work is concerned with providing a definition for various events and subjects, and as such, identifying the types of causes for each event is an important step in accomplishing this goal. Aristotle specifically investigates the role of luck and chance as causes of change. Although we commonly speak of luck or chance as being a cause, Aristotle purposefully refrains from including them in his explanation of causes. When giving an account of our observable world, I agree with Aristotle in that there is no place for luck and chance as causes of events, yet I believe they do have a role, namely in predicting future events. Aristotle specifically separates causes into four different categories, material cause, formal cause, efficient cause, and final cause. He defines these causes as that from which, as a constituent present in it, ... the form i.e., the pattern, ... the source of the primary principle of change, ... something s end . Respectively, these describe what something is made of, the form or pattern to which is corresponds, the original source of change (closest to what we would associate with a cause ), and the purpose of the change.

It is an order of nature that embodies all life from the moment it begins. While all three works portray the temporality of life, they each shape the aura of death in various ways. In The Mariner, death is introduced in the form of a corpse. The manifestation of fear and discomfort becomes the crux of Pessoa s play whereas in the painting of The Ambassadors , death exists through a distorted image of a skull that could only come into focus when viewed from an oblique angle, making the skull a grim symbolism of decay that engulfs the dead body.

Hence, the second watcher has defined the corpse as a physical representation of the dead that does not belong neither amongst the living nor the afterlife just yet. It is in a state of departure from life and journeying into the afterlife.

These features have attracted many foreign investments and a consequently, the state owned enterprises started to suffer from competition. All these changes forced China to reform is labor relation system. This report aims to analyze the strengths and weakness of labor relation system in china, especially in terms of the strengths and issues in labor market and training. 1 Outperformance of labor markets in china 1.1 Increasing total employment It is well known that China has a rapid economic growth over the past three decade. In order to cope with fast changing economy, the China s labor market has experienced a significant transition from central controlled labor market to more market oriented labor market. This was primarily due to the growing importance of private enterprises and foreign investments, and the reform of state owned enterprises (Chan Peng, 2011). The new market oriented market has stimulated the total employment from 170.4 million people been employed in 1990 to 293.5 million people in 2007(NBS, 2007). The growth of employment can be attributed to the generally improved employment conditions since the new labor laws introduced more stringent health and safety standards, as well as minimum wages (Allard Garot, 2010). 1.2 Shift in employment Since the China s economic reform period, the labor migration became prevalent increasingly.

  • 35. How Did Hip Hop Affect Society Hip Hop music and the sub genre, Gangster Rap, has deep roots dating back from as early as the 15th and 16th century but since the mid 1980 s and early 1990 s this sub culture has taken over mainstream and has had a negative effect on both Hip Hop as a culture and the american society. The word rap was first used in Brittain and meant to hit or to strike. As the word evolved over the centuries the definition of the word changed to mean to speak or to talk. The word rap also has many ties to the African griots dating back thousands of years ago. These griots where the village storytellers that would pass down the history of their family through story and song as well as communicate current local events to the people of the village.

Not only did the singing become a way to cope with the hardships but they also used a type of rapping to communicate to each other while their owner or master was present. The slaves had to learn to speak in a broken very fast paced way of speaking and they taught themselves how to play on words and communicate to each other making sure they were the only ones able to understand the conversation. Since then this way of communicating evolved into a very popular musical style in the United States and around the world as Hip Hop and Rap. The commercial music industry has since greatly profited off of this style and form of music grossing nearly one billion dollars annually. Due to the increased popularity of gangster rap in the American culture, many people of all ages misunderstand the meaning behind this subgenre of Hip Hop music, whether it be the young kids and teens glorifying the violence and drug use or the politicians of the 1980 s and 1990 s not really hearing what was really being said in this newly developing music ...

  • 36. Comparing Sexuality in Grey s Riders of the Purple Sage... Sexuality of the Frontierswoman in Grey s Riders of the Purple Sage and Doctorow s Welcome to Hard Times The presentation of femininity in Doctorow s Welcome to Hard Times is a strong departure from the heroine of Zane Grey s Riders of the Purple Sage. Through the metaphor of the gun as the embodiment of masculinity, both authors closely examine the complexities of the sexualized relationship of a frontierswoman to the men of her society. Doctorow mirrors the tensions present in Grey s novel though Molly acts as an extraordinarily different vision of what the West required of a woman than Jane Withersteen. Both novels reach a sexual climax as the heroine engages the men of her society in a violent action of blood and birth. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The book opens with the failure of Blue s manhood. He, bearing the title of Mayor, failed to have both the courage and the skill to protect the town, especially the women, from the Bad Man. Molly mocks his failure even as she watches Blue fill the cylinders of [his] gun : Christ that Bad Man s the only man in town!...I can t believe it...using a lady, for Godsake, marching brave behind a lady s skirts (Doctorow 16). This moment, with Blue symbolically taking up his manhood and with Molly simultaneously deriding his status as a man, encompasses much of the tension between the failed masculinity of the citizens of Hard Times and their feminine counterparts. Ultimately, Blue s gun fails him and he is saved from the Bad Man s superior skill and ruthlessness only by Molly s struggling and pulling (19). Doctorow s portrayal of failed masculinity as the founding sin of Hard Times contrasts strongly with the more traditional Western. Zane Grey s Riders of the Purple Sage is a close parallel in many ways to the opening of Welcome to Hard Times. The scene opens with the Bad Man of the piece, Tull, preparing to whip Venters. Venters failure to defend himself comes as a result of surrendering his guns to Jane s safekeeping. This symbolic castration leaves him at the mercy of the other men, and leaving him behind a lady s skirts (Doctorow 16).

  • 37. The Development Of Luxury Industry People love luxury. Some people think it stands for fashion, and some people think it stands for a social stratum, but in common, people think it stands for rich and success. However, is it really a symbol of success? Or, it is just the satisfaction of vanity? People can see what famous people use and wear in television or magazine in their daily lives which gives them a model of rich people s lives. Luxury usually plays a big role. People s vanities push them to spend a huge amount of their income on purchasing luxuries so that they can look more similar to the famous people who they idolize with. Generation to generation, using luxury to measure whether one is success or not becomes a culture, and rich becomes the synonym of success in the society. The development of luxury industry benefits by this unhealthy culture; at the same time, people s vanities also be expended by luxury which cause the distorted definition of success. The development of luxury industry never leaves human s vanity. People want to look rich but not poor, specially, in United States and under American Dream. According to Sales of the Luxury in Selected Countries in 2013 (see figure 1), the country which has the highest sales of the luxury goods in 2013 is United States which is almost four times higher than Japan which is in the second place (Bain Company).

  • 38. Ceo Compensation CEO Compensation As Murphy (1998) rightly points out, CEO compensation has become one of the most debated issues in the recent past. A lot of research in this field has been conducted to determine the relationship between CEO pay levels with the corporate performance, firm size, board vigilance, CEO s human capital, tenure age. But the results of these researches are not very hopeful and have yielded conflicting results.

Buchholtz et al., (1998) found that compensation committee members with close relationships to CEOs made more favourable decisions about CEOs than those with more distant relationships. CEO s human capital, age tenure Harris and Helfat (1997) classified the human capital at three levels a) generic skills which are transferable across industries, businesses or firms; b) industry specific skills which can be transferred only to the firms that operate in that industry; and c) firm specific skills which cannot be transferred outside of the firm. They investigated the relationship between the impact of these skills on CEO compensation for both internal and external successors and concluded that differential skill specificity is associated with pay premiums to external successors. CEO s age tenure may play an important role but the studies conducted were unable to test for this due to lack of relevant data (Tosi et al., 2000; Buchholtz et al., 1998). CEO compensation: An ethical perspective According to Matsumura and Shin (2005) the ratio of executive to worker pay has climbed from 42:1 in 1982 to 301:1 in 2003.

Since the September 11th attacks, the Transportation Security Administration, also known as the TSA, initiated their plan to ensure the safety of nearly 2 million air passengers at approximately 440 airports nationwide. (Carraway) Although the TSA implemented new training procedures, the aviation screeners fail to apply their skills effective during searches and checkpoints.

It is not logical to invest a significant amount of federal funds into airline security employment if there is a large discrepancy between their current performances and expected results. However, technology utilizes a significantly less amount of funding, but continues to perform its tasks. The Trump administration plans to eliminate three airport security programs that were implemented after the 9/11 terrorist attack: Visible Intermodal Prevention and Response program that conduct random sweeps through airports and other modes of transportation, Behavior Detection Officer program that identifies potentially high risk individuals exhibiting behavior indicative of excessiveness then re routes them for additional screening, and the grant program to support local police at airports, specifically, likely target cities. (Halsey) These plans indicate that the Trump administration believes that the termination of these programs will increase the budget for the Department of Homeland Security, but does not reduce the number of TSA officers at checkpoints. There is also more funding for the government to invest in other areas to improve the security for the general public. There is also a current decline in airport staffing. In this report, the TSA admits that TSO staffing levels fell from 47,147 full time employees to 42,525 between 2013 and 2016; concurrent passenger volume rose 15 percent in this period, while the TSA only hired 373 workers to ...

  • 40. Examples Of Eulogy In Coretta s Funeral Coretta Scott King was an activist who had a major impact on those around her. For Coretta s funeral, her sister, Maya Angelou wrote Coretta s eulogy. The eulogy first mentions Coretta s passion as a peaceful activist who wanted to right the wrongs in the world. The eulogy progresses by explaining her background as an African American woman who was born in a small town and loved everyone and everything no matter their difference in this world. Maya then describes her experiences of exchanging phone calls, letters, and flowers with Coretta because they were not able to see each other frequently. The eulogy ends with Maya and Coretta agreeing that Peace and justice should belong to all people, everywhere, all the time (Angelou, n.d., para. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... She also used humor to put the audience at ease. First, Maya tells the audience that Coretta loved her church, family, friends, and race. She also cared about the sexual orientation of others, the condition of humans, and the struggles in the world (Angelou, n.d., para. 7). This appeals to the audience s emotions because those topics are very controversial and cause many people to end friendships, but not for Coretta. Maya also appeals to the audience when she talks about sending flowers and cards because they rarely saw each other. This affected the audience because many people in the audience know how that feels. Another way that Maya appeals to the audience through pathos is using humor that will help the audience relax. First, Maya told the audience that they would call each other girl because it was a black woman thing to do, she told the audience that in their 70th decade they still said it (Angelou, n.d., para. 9). Maya also brings humor into the argument when she told the audience that she would tell her sister jokes that were not meant for the presence of anyone but the two of them (Angelou, n.d., para. 11). The reason Maya used humor in her argument is simply the fact that it is hard to say no when you are laughing.

I do not believe the Kardashians deserve the name leader because they do things for themselves and not other people, which is not a quality of a leader.
