Essay On Changing Car Oil
While most people nowadays, rarely think about changing their car oil. But little do they know, that
regularly changing a car s engine oil is one of the most important things you can possibly do to keep a
car running without any problems or mishaps. Without regular oil changes, the old oil inside of a car,
will break down and clog a car s oil filter, causing a hefty price for repairs and replacements. The
general population, might not know this, but changing the oil of a car is both inexpensive and easy.
The change begins by driving the car into a driveway or a spot with enough allocated space to work
beneath the vehicle and outside the vehicle. This is done to make sure, that an individual does not

As soon as the oil cap bolt has been screwed back on, new oil has to be added. Locate the the fill hole
at the top of the engine. If location cannot be verified, look to the left of the engine, and there should
be a cap. Before anything is done, it is heavily recommended that vehicle capabilities are checked in
the owner s manual, to insure how much oil the vehicle can take. Too much oil intake may cause
blockage, so please be wary.
Once the new oil has been inserted, it is recommended that the engine is turned off and on to double
check that everything is running smoothly with the oil pressure. This can be verified, by checking the
red engine light turn off and on after startup. If that is not the case, then a bolt is not tightened
properly, and is oozing out liquid or oil.
As another verification method, the dipstick can be pulled out of the vehicle to double check the
pressure. This is located to the bottom left of the engine. It generally looks like a long metal rod.
Simply pull this out, and check to see if both holes on the bottom of the stick are shaded in with oil. If
this is the case, then a successful oil change has been

The Ethnic Cleansing Of The United States
The ethnic cleansing of the United States has been a topic of discussion in Germany for more than a
century. Authors like Karl May and James Fenimore Cooper popularized western fiction. Adolf Hitler
discovered May at the time he entered realshule and Cooper at the time he entered volksschule. After
the Munich putsch of 1923, Karl Haushofer taught Hitler of lebensraum, the idea of Manifest Destiny
in the United States transposed to a German defining East in Poland and Russia. Inspired by the
stories of May and lebensraum, Hitler repeatedly compared Manifest Destiny in the United States and

Europe in Hitler s Ostkrieg and the Indian Wars: Comparing Conquest and Genocide. Westermann is
Professsor of History at Texas A M University San Antonio. Hitler s Ostkrieg and the Indian Wars:
Comparing Conquest and Genocide was published in 2016. In it, Westermann highlights similarities
between Manifest Destiny in the United States and Hitler s war in East Europe. Westermann evaluates
the racial stereotypes, the philosophies, the national policies, the military strategies, and the role of
massacre in both Manifest Destiny in the United States and Hitler s war in East Europe. Westermann
concludes that, while Hitler did envision his war in East Europe as Manifest Destiny in the United
States, the two national projects did not share a common goal. Westermann concludes that Hitler
demonstrated his limited understanding of U.S. history in his belief that intent of the U.S. Army was
genocidal. Investigation

Comparing Catherine II and Elizabeth I
The above quote applies very well to both Catherine II and Elizabeth I. Neither lady sought the power
of their lands; they were given it in a unusual circumstance. They then display great leadership and do
great things for each country. Catherine II, Empress of Russia, was born in Germany in 1729, but with
the name of Sophia. She was the daughter of Prince Christian August and Princess Johanna Elizabeth.
Since she was a princess, she was home schooled. She became very smart and free spirited. Nancy
Whitelaw, the author of Catherine the Great spoke on Sophia s childhood and noted, Sophia loved to
be in charge, and though some of her playmates said she was bossy, there was no doubt she was a
natural leader (Whitelaw 15 16). When she was around the age of fifteen, she met Prince Karl Peter
Ulrich of Russia. Ulrich s mother, Czarina of Russia, was trying to find a wife for her son. She knew
her son was not fit for the throne, and the country would be devastated with him at the head. Whoever
Ulrich married would earn the right to rule Russia (Whitelaw 18). After some consideration and
suggestions, she decided that Sophia was the right girl for Ulrich. Even though her father did not like
the fact that she would have to convert from Lutheran to Orthodox, he gave consent. She moved back
to Russia with Ulrich, converted to Orthodox, and changed her name to Catherine. Catherine now had
to give birth to a son as the heir to the throne, but it was going to be hard due to Ulrich s

The Hauptmann Trial Aka The Lindbergh Trial
Hauptmann Trial aka The Lindbergh Trial The Lindberg trial was referred to as the trial of the century
because of the events that took place with Charles Augustus Lindbergh. He was a victim to a crime
that tore one of his families apart. Lindbergh was known as the American Hero and or the Aviation
Hero , and later on, as the National Villain because of the close proximity he had with the Nazi
Government [1]. The opinion the public had about Lindbergh was varying, some considered him a
hero, others considered him the the true meaning of a man and some didn t think much of him other
than that he was involved with the Nazis and was a Good riddance. [2] In 1932, Charles Jr., Charles
and Anne Lindbergh s two year old son was kidnapped from their house with a poorly written note left
behind, demanding for a ransom. The note had some markings such as a hieroglyphic letter in red and
blue, three holes punched through the paper at the bottom of the page and next to it the kidnapper
stating that he left the marks intentionally as an indication for future letters that were yet to come. In
the following month of the kidnapping, nine ransom notes were delivered to the Lindbergh s through
other third parties. After going back and forth with the demands, the kidnapper and Lindbergh agreed
on a third person, John Condon, retired physician, that would deliver the money to the kidnapper. John

Understanding Social Influence On Online Choice
Purpose of the Study
To Switch or Not to Switch: Understanding Social Influence in Online Choice is a study that was
focused on the role of social influence in online recommender systems. Haiyi Zhu and Bernardo A.
Huberman, the authors of the study, were interested in studying how often peoples choices are affected
by other individuals endorsements. The hypothesis of the study is that individuals are more likely to
reverse their opinions when the reversion causes less self inconsistency (the confirmation pressure is
weaker) or the opposing social opinions are stronger (the conformity pressure is stronger) .
Methodology
The researchers conducted various online experiments. The participants in the study went to the Rankr
website to select their preference of one image out of two images displayed. They first did this with no
knowledge of what people before them picked. The second time the participants had indications of
what others had chosen. The researchers were trying to determine whether seeing other peoples
preferences affected the participants choices. This setup allowed for social influence to be measured
based on if people changed their selections between the two instances. The researchers wanted to see
if the participants changed their mind after seeing what others preferred.
In addition, the researchers wanted to manipulate the pressure of social opinions by changing the time
between the two selection periods. The first time participants selected their

Flat Shot Essay
Groundstrokes can be hit with topspin or flat.
Topspin is when the racket brushes over the top of the ball causing it to spin. This type of stroke is
more accurate but it makes the ball bounce when it hits the surface which gives the opponent more
time to think before deciding on his own shot. The flat shot however, which is harder to control goes
flatter across the net and the court and has hardly any bounce making it harder for the opponent to
return accurately but it is also a riskier shot.
Sliced forehand and backhand.
This is the opposite of a topspin shot. The ball is hit underneath causing it to have a backspin effect as
it lands on the court and making it a tricky shot to return. It is a great shot to use to change the pace of
the game and to catch an opponent out by giving them a shot that s hard to reach and has a swerving
effect at the end.

It is considered an important weapon of the game. Winning or losing a game can depend on whether a
player dominates the serve or not. Failing to place the serve in the right place can mean a player gives
away free points to his opponent. This is called committing a double fault. A player has two
opportunities per point to place the ball in the correct area across the net or the other player
automatically receives a point. Having a weak serve that the other player can return too easily, and
aggressively, is also a problem as points will be lost too easily. There are several types of serves such

Analysis Of No Witchcraft For Sale By Doris Lessing
Can t Trust Anyone
(An analysis of No Witchcraft For Sale by Doris Lessing and it s 3 messages) Racism is the main
culprit for fighting among not only American citizens, but those in foreign countries. The issue has
progressed but still has a great deal of improving to do. In recent years and months many have begun
take stands against racism and the unfair ways they have been treated. Doris Lessing wrote novels and
short stories that challenged the mainstream beliefs of those in Southern Africa and England. Mariam
Berkley, a biographer explained, Lessing s life has been a challenge to her belief that people cannot
resist the currents of their time, as she fought against the biological and cultural imperatives. Her
literature was very controversial because the topics she discussed brought in many different
perspectives to problems in society. Her thoughts mainly tie in with racism and sexism. In Lessing s
No Witchcraft for Sale she explains the messages of white people having control over blacks, the
selflessness of the slave, and ways to deal with peer pressure. In No Witchcraft for Sale Doris Lessing
explains the message of white people having complete control over blacks in what they are and are not
able to do. In the early 1900s it was not uncommon to see blacks owned by whites. Blacks inability to
get an education, live on their own, and get a job prohibit them from being able to be independent.
Many had the desire to become educated, but were never able to do because of the time period. This is
still a problem today, whites thinking they are somehow above blacks. Blogger Karen Fleshman
explains her observations about race by posting, Americans are not at all on the same page when it
comes to race. It is obvious that things have improved, but there is still a long way to go before racism
will ever solved; if that is ever accomplished. Throughout No Witchcraft for Sale, Lessing uses the
influence of the parents on the children. Teddy Farquar played with the servants son and referred to
him laughingly saying, He s only a black boy, (line 49). Even at the young age as both of these
children they had already been taught the difference in skin color and what that meant. This idea

The Roll Of A Leader

The roll of a leader is more than basically holding an initiative position or being able to lead.

soccer field to be a good leader for my teammate. As for Grace College men s soccer team I am being
led by other so I try to work harder to set a good leading example with other around me.
My own philosophy of authority is the ability to impact change through showing others how it is done,
taking activity, and inspiring others. There have been numerous things that have affected my theory of
initiative. Something that has affected me as leader is this values I life by now. One of my center
values is responsibility. As a leader, it is vital I comprehend what to do and what is anticipated from
me. When I am dependable as a leader, those I am attempting to lead are all the more ready to do what
I request that they do. Another of my values is respect. Previously, I am constantly pleasant and listen
to the thoughts of others regardless of the fact that they are not the least demanding individuals to be
around. I would say, it has been simpler to procure the admiration of my constituents and respect them
as well. My central beliefs will continue to influence my behavior as a leader in the future to come.

in hopes of finding a cure. Of all the forms of treatment patients undergo, the most familiar of them

Cultural Conflict between Hmong s and American Culture
This entry book spirit catches you and you fall down is talking about the cultural conflict between the
Hmong s culture and American culture. These differences are brought by the strong beliefs in the
Hmong s culture, and the difficulties to accept a new culture. There is a lot of
misunderstanding/conflicts between these two cultures in the book. Usually, when the doctors are
trying to convince the Lee s family about Lia s treatments, the Lees are stuck in their ways and really
hard to accept what the doctors have to say about their beloved daughter. They believe in their own
ways, even if it is helpful or not. They refuse to accept the doctors ideas, and because the treatments
that the doctors give are based on the scientific experiences, so the doctors believe that the Hmong s
ideas are unreasonable or even stupid .However, when the culture conflicts face the love, these
cultural differences become meaningless, which lead me to think that love is the only way that bring
these cultures to connect.
The Hmong cultural/religious belief in shamanistic animism claim that wicked spirits are continually

My Development As A Psychologist
Chapter 42
Dr Gordon Mangan
Dr Mangan was far more influential in my development as a psychologist than I realised when I was a
student. I must confess that I didn t warm to him as a teacher. When I peruse his publications it seems
amazing that I cant find a full biography or bibliography of Mangan anywhere on the net. I am happy
to fill that gap now. It is high time.
Dr Mangan has a rare scientific talent that enables him to originate and follow uncommon ideas to
their conclusion and then substantiate his remarkable ideas with clear theorising and hard
experimental data.
An overview of his publications might lead to the impression that he deliberately chose areas that
were neglected and controversial. He devoted half a decade of his early career to parapsychology,
publishing innovative research and clearheaded reviews. He devoted the later part of his career to
research in smoking funded by the tobacco industry.
He had a lasting interest in Russian psychology particularly Pavlov and the neo Pavlovians. A
considerable amount of his work is devoted to drawing parallels between Eastern and Western
conceptualisations of personality, learning and arousal which culminated in an influential book The
Biology of Human Conduct: East West Models of Temperament and Personality .
As well as these three areas he published on a broad range of topics including intelligence, aging,

Shall Earth No More Inspire Thee By Jon Krakauer
Long ago, people depended on nature for shelter, food, and survival. However, as time goes on, new
inventions develop, and society improved except nature which humans still depend on for survival.
Some people today think that nature is not important, or at least not as important as their phone or
computer. Humans understand that food comes from plants and animals and paper from trees, but they
do not reflect on how much they take from nature compared to the small actions they take to give
back. Emily Bronte s Shall Earth No More Inspire Thee , Jack London s To Build a Fire and Jon
Krakauer s Into The Wild all display the very weak relationship between man and nature because
humans no longer feel dependent on nature.
Emily Bronte s Shall Earth No More Inspire Thee illustrates man s weak connection with nature when
humans do not spend time to interact with nature. The speaker of the poem is nature because he or she
describes how it has powers of nature throughout the poem. When the speaker asks the reader to return
and dwell with [him or her] (Bronte l.28), it is nature asking humans to go and spend time with it. This

Ethical Issues In The Eugenics Movement
Beginning in the late 19th century, eugenics was a social and health reform movement aimed at
refining the genetic quality of the human population. Although the apparent goal of the movement was
improving the human race, a desire to preserve white middle and upper class power also existed. This
is evident in the policies implemented, as the unfit were confined to institutions and stringent marriage
laws were established. Even more aggressive measures were applied in the Progressive Era. As
immigration increased and the birthrate of Anglo Americans declined in the 20th century, compulsory
sterilization of the unfit was constructed to combat the threatened merit of society. Fueled by the fear
of change, society s ambiguous sentiments toward the unfit or feebleminded allowed prominent
eugenicist to abuse their power and loosely interpret policy to fit their social constructs. Although
many ethical issues can be connected to the eugenics movement, the protection of freedom and
individuality are the most significant principles at stake. This is best represented in the 1927 Supreme
Court case Buck v. Bell. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

Texas Voter ID Laws Voter ID laws are the laws set into place that require a person to show some form

Identification; providing criminal penalties and Senate Bill 5, which requires a voter to present proof
of ID; providing a criminal penalty and increasing a criminal penalty are the two bills being

The law that says the types of photo ID election officials can/cannot accept at polls goes against the
Voting Rights Act. More than 600,000 Texans lack the form(s) of photo ID that are required through
SB 14. However, these citizens are able to obtain election ID certificates for free, but only if they can
produce a copy of their birth certificate. Some opponents of Texas law say that there is nothing in SB
14 that is discriminatory, but the judges of the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals still chose to reject it. Both
bills were motivated by racism; neither was necessary to preserve voter integrity. Shelby County v.
Holder is relevant to SB 14 in that it weakened federal over state and county elections. Congress

History And Its Impact On History
In taking a peak at a current history lesson taught in a classroom, the common outsider will likely find
nothing wrong with its content or presentation. They hear many famous names and key dates of the
famous people and events of the past and do not bat an eyelash because they learned history in the
same way. On the other hand, if a historian were to walk into that same classroom, they would be
incredibly disappointed by the fact that students are not really learning how to practice history.
Granted, they probably learned about history in the same way at one point or another during their
educational careers, but that was in the past and this is the current day. As science, technology, and
other subjects advance, why is the general public resolved to allow history to remain in the past? Is it
not possible for history education to progress as well? The answer is yes, it is possible and it needs to
be done. There is no doubt that students enter school with preconceived notions about history, which
are often sustained by teachers as they present the subject in their classrooms, in direct contrast to how
historians actually practice history; however, wrongs can be righted and historical analysis can be
integrated into student learning. To begin with, students have many predetermined ideas about history.
These notions are most commonly derived from what they hear at home, in the media, and from
society in general. Sam Wineburg presents this idea in a number of his works.

way. We have only been taught THIS way of writing almost directly after we learned how to spell
words you decide what to write about, usually specified in the thesis statement, then you write a series
of paragraphs entailing how you came to this conclusion. Finally, you conclude your paper by
restating exactly what it was you spent an entire essay writing about. And most people will go their
entire lives believing that is the formula for an effective, well thought out work of literature. But how
often do we go back and read through our writing and completely resent how amateur and forced it

The Great Law Of Motion Of History Essay
The struggle inherent in putting forward what is hailed as the great law of motion of history (The 18th
Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte 14) rests in ensuring that one s purported application of that law is
consistent with its abstract detailing. For example, in Karl Marx s theoretical works and historical
writing specifically The 18th Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte the philosopher and revolutionary
consistently describes the conditions under which men must operate for them to have a chance at
restructuring their society and achieving emancipation. Marx illustrates across theory and practice
how mankind, though limited in its autonomy by the existing societal order, has an opportunity to
emancipate itself from the legal and political superstructure constructed independently of its will when
sufficiently focused, energized and united. Hence how Marx pays enough heed to a particular, the
ascent of Louis Napoleon, such that he can present it as reflective of a greater universal principle:
historical materialism. After all, we [must] not judge of such a period of transformation by its own
consciousness...this consciousness must be explained rather from the existing conflict between the
social productive forces and the relations of production. (Marx on the History of His Opinions 5).

Governing The Commons Summary
When the subject comes to the use of the natural resources in the public space in the world, where
scarcity prevails, Elinor Ostrom, the author of the book Governing the Commons (1990), argues that
nor a totally centralized control of the common pool resources is a solution, nor a full accessibility to
everyone is a way to go either. Based on the paradox, that even though individuals are rational, by
acting rationally they will likely contribute to collectively irrational outcomes , Ostrom critiques the
three approaches that have been applied (at least in the theory) to resolve the distribution of the
common pool resources. The first approach is known as The tragedy of the commons, which presumes
that every (common pool) user has a good nature and does not cheat. This approach results in the
degradation of the environment as many individuals use a scarce resource in common. (p16) The
second approach is Prisoner s Dilemma, in which an actor makes a rational choice based on cost
benefit analysis. This approach implies two strategies: cooperate or defect . Cooperate strategy would
mean that the participant cooperates and shares the common pool resource equally, whereas defect
strategy , a strategy that more likely would be chosen due to lack of communication between the
parties, implies that the participant uses/extracts as much resource as he can sell for profit (p.18) The

The cornerstone to a successful firm is good communication. Without it, there is confusion,
resentment, and a blurry vision for the direction the company wants to go. In order to ensure there is
successful communication amongst the managers and its employees of the firm, a communication
contract should be created. This contract establishes ethical communication and rules for which each
individual is to follow when communicating with others. Aside from creating excellent
communication within the firm, the communication contract creates long lasting benefits for the firm
and creates a solid foundation.
Other communication strategies may create short term profits but do not have the long lasting benefits
of an ethical communication contract. The communication contract I would propose to the firm I work

immunity clause stipulates that anything said or brought about is done so without any consequence.
The motivation behind this clause is that too many good suggestions or ideas or constructive criticisms

Return On Investments ( Roi )
Return on Investments (ROI) is an excellent tool that business professionals use to measure the benefit
an organization receives by administrating the training program. The formula for ROI is the ratio of
the results divided by the training costs. An example of ROI is the dollar value of productivity divided
by training costs. A company benefits from administrating a training program if the ratio of results to
costs is high. There are apparently many formulas out there that organizations are using for ROI, but
the formula recommended to use for training return on investment would be Training ROI = (Total
returns Training cost) / Training cost (Schmidt). Management in many organizations requires proof
that training is financially justified and a good return on investment. If not, then the cost of training
may possibly be reduced. It is all about the money that an organization can or cannot afford to use for
the purpose of training. There are some critics who feel that ROI is not a necessity, whereas there are
some critics who feel that ROI is an important necessity for an organization now more than ever.
The training program is more expensive than its returns to the organization if the ROI ratio is less than
one. Unfortunately, such a training program has to be either changed or cancelled. Therefore, the ROI
ratio has to be more than one in order for the training program to be of some value to the organization.

Themes Of Johnny Tremain
Esther Forbes published Johnny Tremain in 1943, when the United States was in the middle of World
War II, in which the United States and the United Kingdom ,yet another way to refer to Great Britain,
were allies. But that s okay because Forbes makes it clear that England is not the real enemy but the
real enemy is any government that threatens the liberty of its people or just doesn t stand up for them.
So, in a roundabout way, Johnny Tremain is partly about the importance of workman s comp laws.
Johnny Tremain, the book and the movie, were very different because of the events and the characters;
and similar because of the plot, and timeline. Johnny Tremain, an orphan is apprenticed to silversmith
Emphraim Lapham. When we meet Johnny, his entire identity is wrapped up in being a fantastic
silversmith. He s career driven since he is only an apprentice, but he s running his master s shop.
Johnny s natural arrogance will always be his downfall, but he slowly learns to control it, along with
his naturally quick temper. From believing that he knows it all, he comes to realize how much he
doesn t know, through his journey through Boston s Sons of Liberty. He violates the Sabbath laws by
working on Sunday, suffers an injury to his hand by burning it with silver, and that ends his career as
an artisan. He then goes to the home of rich merchant Jonathon Lyte with a silver cup given to him by
his dead mother to prove than Lyte is his uncle. The merchant accuses him of having stolen

In A Heartbeat Symbolism
As a viewer of the short film, In a Heartbeat , I experienced through a generation of a never ending
swirl of feelings that at times left my heart completely shattered, while at others, sent my heart soaring
in contentment for characters I have bonded with over the duration of merely 4 minutes. I was able to
understand and appreciate the thoughtfulness of these accumulated feelings that encloses the matter of
universal love. Without the use of words means that anyone from any country would be able to
understand this, demonstrating universality. It was remarkably impressive how producers were able to
convey a bittersweet and touching tale that potentially could surpass the acceptance standard of
civilians; and to creating such a controversial ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Throughout the film, a very powerful message was communicated towards the audience which was
reflected off of symbolic traits. One form of symbolism that stood out was the personification of the
heart. The heart represents the intense emotions the main character feels; the desire to near the
supporting character. The message conveyed is that your emotions can neither be controlled nor
restrained, as they are stronger and will lead you to the yearned for person. It indicates that everything
happen for a reason, and that resisting against something which is bound to happen will only
convolute situations, as this is evidently shown in the film. Further exploration can be done when the
heart was physically broken. It represents loss, grief, misery and is showcased when each character
holds half of the heart with dejected expressions. Additionally, another symbolic representation is the
apple. In my opinion, the supporting character couldn t have been able to spin the apple that way, and
I believe producers have made it this way done this for a reason. It shows that regular actions or
physical appearances are sugarcoated when we see those we idolize. The character may realistically
not be exceptional to that particular standard, however, seeing through the eyes of someone who
admires, situations may become

If location cannot be verified, look to the left of the engine, and there should be a cap. Before anything is done, it is heavily recommended that vehicle capabilities are checked in the owner s manual, to insure how much oil the vehicle can take. Too much oil intake may cause blockage, so please be wary. Once the new oil has been inserted, it is recommended that the engine is turned off and on to double check that everything is running smoothly with the oil pressure. This can be verified, by checking the red engine light turn off and on after startup. If that is not the case, then a bolt is not tightened properly, and is oozing out liquid or oil. As another verification method, the dipstick can be pulled out of the vehicle to double check the pressure. This is located to the bottom left of the engine. It generally looks like a long metal rod.

  • 4. Comparing Catherine II and Elizabeth I The above quote applies very well to both Catherine II and Elizabeth I. Neither lady sought the power of their lands; they were given it in a unusual circumstance. They then display great leadership and do great things for each country. Catherine II, Empress of Russia, was born in Germany in 1729, but with the name of Sophia. She was the daughter of Prince Christian August and Princess Johanna Elizabeth. Since she was a princess, she was home schooled. She became very smart and free spirited. Nancy Whitelaw, the author of Catherine the Great spoke on Sophia s childhood and noted, Sophia loved to be in charge, and though some of her playmates said she was bossy, there was no doubt she was a natural leader (Whitelaw 15 16). When she was around the age of fifteen, she met Prince Karl Peter Ulrich of Russia. Ulrich s mother, Czarina of Russia, was trying to find a wife for her son. She knew her son was not fit for the throne, and the country would be devastated with him at the head. Whoever Ulrich married would earn the right to rule Russia (Whitelaw 18). After some consideration and suggestions, she decided that Sophia was the right girl for Ulrich. Even though her father did not like the fact that she would have to convert from Lutheran to Orthodox, he gave consent. She moved back to Russia with Ulrich, converted to Orthodox, and changed her name to Catherine.

He was a victim to a crime that tore one of his families apart. Lindbergh was known as the American Hero and or the Aviation Hero , and later on, as the National Villain because of the close proximity he had with the Nazi Government [1]. The opinion the public had about Lindbergh was varying, some considered him a hero, others considered him the the true meaning of a man and some didn t think much of him other than that he was involved with the Nazis and was a Good riddance.

Understanding Social Influence On Online Choice Purpose of the Study To Switch or Not to Switch: Understanding Social Influence in Online Choice is a study that was focused on the role of social influence in online recommender systems. Haiyi Zhu and Bernardo A. Huberman, the authors of the study, were interested in studying how often peoples choices are affected by other individuals endorsements. The hypothesis of the study is that individuals are more likely to reverse their opinions when the reversion causes less self inconsistency (the confirmation pressure is weaker) or the opposing social opinions are stronger (the conformity pressure is stronger) . Methodology The researchers conducted various online experiments. The participants in the study went to the Rankr website to select their preference of one image out of two images displayed. They first did this with no knowledge of what people before them picked. The second time the participants had indications of what others had chosen.

  • 7. Flat Shot Essay Groundstrokes can be hit with topspin or flat. Topspin is when the racket brushes over the top of the ball causing it to spin. This type of stroke is more accurate but it makes the ball bounce when it hits the surface which gives the opponent more time to think before deciding on his own shot. The flat shot however, which is harder to control goes flatter across the net and the court and has hardly any bounce making it harder for the opponent to return accurately but it is also a riskier shot. Sliced forehand and backhand. This is the opposite of a topspin shot. The ball is hit underneath causing it to have a backspin effect as it lands on the court and making it a tricky shot to return.

Failing to place the serve in the right place can mean a player gives away free points to his opponent. This is called committing a double fault. A player has two opportunities per point to place the ball in the correct area across the net or the other player automatically receives a point.

  • 9. Analysis Of No Witchcraft For Sale By Doris Lessing Can t Trust Anyone (An analysis of No Witchcraft For Sale by Doris Lessing and it s 3 messages) Racism is the main culprit for fighting among not only American citizens, but those in foreign countries. The issue has progressed but still has a great deal of improving to do. In recent years and months many have begun take stands against racism and the unfair ways they have been treated. Doris Lessing wrote novels and short stories that challenged the mainstream beliefs of those in Southern Africa and England. Mariam Berkley, a biographer explained, Lessing s life has been a challenge to her belief that people cannot resist the currents of their time, as she fought against the biological and cultural imperatives. Her literature was very controversial because the topics she discussed brought in many different perspectives to problems in society. Her thoughts mainly tie in with racism and sexism. In Lessing s No Witchcraft for Sale she explains the messages of white people having control over blacks, the selflessness of the slave, and ways to deal with peer pressure. In No Witchcraft for Sale Doris Lessing explains the message of white people having complete control over blacks in what they are and are not able to do. In the early 1900s it was not uncommon to see blacks owned by whites. Blacks inability to get an education, live on their own, and get a job prohibit them from being able to be independent. Many had the desire to become educated, but were never able to do because of the time period. This is still a problem today, whites thinking they are somehow above blacks. Blogger Karen Fleshman explains her observations about race by posting, Americans are not at all on the same page when it comes to race. It is obvious that things have improved, but there is still a long way to go before racism will ever solved; if that is ever accomplished. Throughout No Witchcraft for Sale, Lessing uses the influence of the parents on the children. Teddy Farquar played with the servants son and referred to him laughingly saying, He s only a black boy, (line 49).

These differences are brought by the strong beliefs in the Hmong s culture, and the difficulties to accept a new culture.

Usually, when the doctors are trying to convince the Lee s family about Lia s treatments, the Lees are stuck in their ways and really hard to accept what the doctors have to say about their beloved daughter. They believe in their own ways, even if it is helpful or not. They refuse to accept the doctors ideas, and because the treatments that the doctors give are based on the scientific experiences, so the doctors believe that the Hmong s ideas are unreasonable or even stupid .However, when the culture conflicts face the love, these cultural differences become meaningless, which lead me to think that love is the only way that bring these cultures to connect.

I must confess that I didn t warm to him as a teacher. When I peruse his publications it seems amazing that I cant find a full biography or bibliography of Mangan anywhere on the net. I am happy to fill that gap now. It is high time. Dr Mangan has a rare scientific talent that enables him to originate and follow uncommon ideas to their conclusion and then substantiate his remarkable ideas with clear theorising and hard experimental data. An overview of his publications might lead to the impression that he deliberately chose areas that were neglected and controversial. He devoted half a decade of his early career to parapsychology, publishing innovative research and clearheaded reviews. He devoted the later part of his career to research in smoking funded by the tobacco industry. He had a lasting interest in Russian psychology particularly Pavlov and the neo Pavlovians. A considerable amount of his work is devoted to drawing parallels between Eastern and Western conceptualisations of personality, learning and arousal which culminated in an influential book The Biology of Human Conduct: East West Models of Temperament and Personality .

However, as time goes on, new inventions develop, and society improved except nature which humans still depend on for survival. Some people today think that nature is not important, or at least not as important as their phone or computer. Humans understand that food comes from plants and animals and paper from trees, but they do not reflect on how much they take from nature compared to the small actions they take to give back.

Emily Bronte s Shall Earth No More Inspire Thee illustrates man s weak connection with nature when humans do not spend time to interact with nature. The speaker of the poem is nature because he or she describes how it has powers of nature throughout the poem.

  • 21. Ethical Issues In The Eugenics Movement Beginning in the late 19th century, eugenics was a social and health reform movement aimed at refining the genetic quality of the human population. Although the apparent goal of the movement was improving the human race, a desire to preserve white middle and upper class power also existed. This is evident in the policies implemented, as the unfit were confined to institutions and stringent marriage laws were established. Even more aggressive measures were applied in the Progressive Era. As immigration increased and the birthrate of Anglo Americans declined in the 20th century, compulsory sterilization of the unfit was constructed to combat the threatened merit of society. Fueled by the fear of change, society s ambiguous sentiments toward the unfit or feebleminded allowed prominent eugenicist to abuse their power and loosely interpret policy to fit their social constructs. Although many ethical issues can be connected to the eugenics movement, the protection of freedom and individuality are the most significant principles at stake.

Granted, they probably learned about history in the same way at one point or another during their educational careers, but that was in the past and this is the current day. As science, technology, and other subjects advance, why is the general public resolved to allow history to remain in the past? Is it not possible for history education to progress as well? The answer is yes, it is possible and it needs to be done. There is no doubt that students enter school with preconceived notions about history, which are often sustained by teachers as they present the subject in their classrooms, in direct contrast to how historians actually practice history; however, wrongs can be righted and historical analysis can be integrated into student learning. To begin with, students have many predetermined ideas about history. These notions are most commonly derived from what they hear at home, in the media, and from society in general. Sam Wineburg presents this idea in a number of his works. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Phineas, commonly referred to as Finny, portrays the cliche best friend: dependable, understanding, exhilarating, and drives others towards change. Gene Forrester, the protagonist, depicts the conventional image of a self conscious adolescent male: permeating jealousy, uncertainty, and self hatred. Stereotypical roles continue to gradually function to achieve an author s purpose, as delineated in Knowles s novel. As Finny and Gene ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... While the adolescent males conveyed valiant desires, they all remained fearful of the future. Finny was the one who possessed the ability to enliven his solemn peers. Rather than wallowing in his thoughts, Finny hosted the winter carnival. A social function of such magnitude kept the teenagers from focusing on the war, but rather on their several youthful possibilities. While enjoying himself at the carnival, Gene reflected, It wasn t the cider which made me surpass myself, it was this liberation we had torn from the gray encroachments of 1943, the escape we had concocted, this afternoon of momentary, illusory, and separate peace (9.128). Gene repeatedly implied peace at Devon School, however this was only acquired thanks to Finny helping peers mentally escape the war. Though Finny viewed his actions as a positive diversion, Gene s paranoia began to obscure his judgment. Gene retained a deep seated loathing for Finny, mainly due to jealously. After convincing himself that Finny was sabotaging his educational achievements, Gene shook the branch both boys were standing on.

Revision Of The Writing Process A Study on Revision In The Writing Process Typically, when most people think about the writing process they think of terms such as a thesis statement, developing an outline, body paragraphs, conclusion; it s imperative to view writing this way. We have only been taught THIS way of writing almost directly after we learned how to spell words you decide what to write about, usually specified in the thesis statement, then you write a series of paragraphs entailing how you came to this conclusion. Finally, you conclude your paper by restating exactly what it was you spent an entire essay writing about. And most people will go their entire lives believing that is the formula for an effective, well thought out work of literature. But how often do we go back and read through our writing and completely resent how amateur and forced it sounds? This is usually a direct result of a lack of revision within a work. Defined by the Merriam Webster dictionary as a change or a set of changes that corrects or improves something and a new version of something that has been corrected or changed, Revision is not a common word we think of when writing this raises a serious question: how should you revise? In response to this to this, research was conducted to find a general view as to the significance of revision within various individual s writing processes.

  • 32. The Great Law Of Motion Of History Essay The struggle inherent in putting forward what is hailed as the great law of motion of history (The 18th Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte 14) rests in ensuring that one s purported application of that law is consistent with its abstract detailing. For example, in Karl Marx s theoretical works and historical writing specifically The 18th Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte the philosopher and revolutionary consistently describes the conditions under which men must operate for them to have a chance at restructuring their society and achieving emancipation. Marx illustrates across theory and practice how mankind, though limited in its autonomy by the existing societal order, has an opportunity to emancipate itself from the legal and political superstructure constructed independently of its will when sufficiently focused, energized and united. Hence how Marx pays enough heed to a particular, the ascent of Louis Napoleon, such that he can present it as reflective of a greater universal principle: historical materialism. After all, we [must] not judge of such a period of transformation by its own consciousness...this consciousness must be explained rather from the existing conflict between the social productive forces and the relations of production. (Marx on the History of His Opinions 5). Marx set out to detail, display and prove a universal law. Insofar as his consideration of emancipation and the conditions necessary for it constitute that law, he got at least two thirds of the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 33. Governing The Commons Summary When the subject comes to the use of the natural resources in the public space in the world, where scarcity prevails, Elinor Ostrom, the author of the book Governing the Commons (1990), argues that nor a totally centralized control of the common pool resources is a solution, nor a full accessibility to everyone is a way to go either. Based on the paradox, that even though individuals are rational, by acting rationally they will likely contribute to collectively irrational outcomes , Ostrom critiques the three approaches that have been applied (at least in the theory) to resolve the distribution of the common pool resources. The first approach is known as The tragedy of the commons, which presumes that every (common pool) user has a good nature and does not cheat. This approach results in the degradation of the environment as many individuals use a scarce resource in common. (p16) The second approach is Prisoner s Dilemma, in which an actor makes a rational choice based on cost benefit analysis. This approach implies two strategies: cooperate or defect . Cooperate strategy would mean that the participant cooperates and shares the common pool resource equally, whereas defect strategy , a strategy that more likely would be chosen due to lack of communication between the parties, implies that the participant uses/extracts as much resource as he can sell for profit (p.18) The third is the Collective Action approach, which suggests that proportionally to the size of the group, there is a necessity that someone (external) comes in and regulates it. ...

  • 34. The Importance Of A Successful Firm Is Good Communication The cornerstone to a successful firm is good communication. Without it, there is confusion, resentment, and a blurry vision for the direction the company wants to go. In order to ensure there is successful communication amongst the managers and its employees of the firm, a communication contract should be created. This contract establishes ethical communication and rules for which each individual is to follow when communicating with others. Aside from creating excellent communication within the firm, the communication contract creates long lasting benefits for the firm and creates a solid foundation. Other communication strategies may create short term profits but do not have the long lasting benefits of an ethical communication contract. The communication contract I would propose to the firm I work for would have six clauses. They would be the immunity clause, the respect clause, the need for change clause, the switched roles clause, the bottom up clause, and the key focus clause. The immunity clause stipulates that anything said or brought about is done so without any consequence. The motivation behind this clause is that too many good suggestions or ideas or constructive criticisms are held back because employees fear that they will be reprimanded or even lose their job because of the criticism. With the immunity clause employees can share their true feelings and critiques and that will be honored rather than rebuked. A companion to the immunity clause is the respect ...

With the breakup of the nearby La Réunion colony in the late 1850s, skilled European craftsmen and artists moved into Dallas, including brickmakers, cabinetmakers, tailors, milliners, brewers, and musicians. By 1860 the population was 678, including ninety seven African Americans as well as French, Belgians, Swiss, and Germans. On July 8, 1860, a fire originating in the W. W. Peak Brothers Drugstore spread to the other buildings on the square and destroyed most of the businesses. Suspicion fell on slaves and Northern abolitionists; three slaves were hanged, and two Iowa preachers were whipped and run out of town. In 1861 Dallas voters voted 741 to 237 to secede from the Union. Dallas was selected as one of eleven quartermaster and commissary posts in Texas for the Trans Mississippi Army of the Confederacy. After the war, freed slaves flocked to Dallas in search of jobs and settled in freedmen s towns on the periphery of the city. By 1870 the population was about 3,000. The key to economic expansion had always been better transportation in and out of the region. Early attempts to navigate the Trinity River had proved impractical.

Beowulf was known for countlessly putting his body and his life on the line to save his people. His courage and determination is what kept his legacy alive for all of these years. Not only that, but the respect he had for the people around him made him a remembered warrior as well. That s what I think makes a hero. Being determined to get a job done, having the courage to step in and complete that job, and having enough respect for your people to still obey their wishes despite your apparent fame.

Black Panther s respect for his people is shown particularly when Wakanda was invited to a very important panel that would be aired in front of the world. This panel would include the likes of Reed Richards, Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, and many more Big Name heroes. Panther brought along two colleagues from Wakanda to sit with him on the panel Okoye and Nareema. When the panel intensified, it was the Black Panther turn to offer up some resolutions. During this moment, Okoye and Nareema suggested some of their thoughts to T Challa and the rest of the panel. Even though Stark and company tried to downplay their suggestions, their King stepped up for them, allowing their points to be heard worldwide. No you may not Mr. Stark, my companions will be heard! Because of T Challa s respect, he enabled Okoye and Nareema to cultivate a sensible solution, which was eventually used to help prevent an oncoming conflict.

And no matter how much the tides seem to be turning against him, he s always determine to find a way to save his kingdom!

  • 39. Return On Investments ( Roi ) Return on Investments (ROI) is an excellent tool that business professionals use to measure the benefit an organization receives by administrating the training program. The formula for ROI is the ratio of the results divided by the training costs. An example of ROI is the dollar value of productivity divided by training costs. A company benefits from administrating a training program if the ratio of results to costs is high. There are apparently many formulas out there that organizations are using for ROI, but the formula recommended to use for training return on investment would be Training ROI = (Total returns Training cost) / Training cost (Schmidt). Management in many organizations requires proof that training is financially justified and a good return on investment. If not, then the cost of training may possibly be reduced. It is all about the money that an organization can or cannot afford to use for the purpose of training. There are some critics who feel that ROI is not a necessity, whereas there are some critics who feel that ROI is an important necessity for an organization now more than ever. The training program is more expensive than its returns to the organization if the ROI ratio is less than one. Unfortunately, such a training program has to be either changed or cancelled. Therefore, the ROI ratio has to be more than one in order for the training program to be of some value to the organization. Training expenditures, training costs, and ...

But that s okay because Forbes makes it clear that England is not the real enemy but the real enemy is any government that threatens the liberty of its people or just doesn t stand up for them. So, in a roundabout way, Johnny Tremain is partly about the importance of workman s comp laws.
