2. Essay On Symmetry In The Eyes Of The Beholder
Symmetry in the Eyes of the Beholder
Physical appearance is held in high regard amongst the human species and
observational methods are used in the construction of impression formation. One
particular method being, the preference for biological symmetry. Biological
symmetry is defined as similarity or balance between parts of an organism so that if
split in half mirror images are formed (Symmetry, Biological, 2016). The visual
detection of perfect biological symmetry, naturally, amongst humans is fairly
complicated but past research has demonstrated that it s not impossible. According to
research conducted by Rhodes, Proffitt, Grady, and Sumich (1998), humans have a
sensitivity to different levels of symmetry. The human preference for... Show more

The perception of being friendly can be defined by the level at which one
perceives another to be socially capable of possessing various friendships, or the
ability to be kind to others. The perception of being friendly, also, has not been
significantly linked to biological symmetry. However, research has proposed that the
perception of being seen as helpful, sympathetic, and forgiving is decreased in
asymmetrical faces (Noor and Evans, 2003). The perception of being intelligent can
be defined by the level at which one perceives another to possess intellectual abilities
(i.e problem solving, planning, learning). The perception of being intelligent has, in
conjunction with the previous variables, not possessed a major role in the majority of
research that pertains to biological symmetry. Nonetheless, one study found a
correlation between body asymmetry and low IQ in undergraduates (Furlow, Armijo
Prewitt, Gangestad, Thornhill, 1997). Overall, research studies pertaining to
biological symmetry, as a whole, and impression formation have been ambiguous
thus, leaving current findings open to debate. Conversely, research studies pertaining
to facial symmetry, attractiveness, and mate selection have been modestly more
definitive. Thereupon, leading to the conclusion that facial symmetry may render
more results in the construction of

Brains before Beauty in Jane Erye
Beauty is generally classified into two main categories: physical and mental. In the
Charlotte Bronte s Jane Erye, the protagonist rejects by choice and submission, her
own physical beauty in favor of her mental intelligence and humility, and her
choice becomes her greatest benefit by allowing her to win the hand of the man of
her desires, a man who has the values Jane herself believes in. She values her
knowledge and thinking before any of her physical appearances because of her
desire as a child to read, the lessons she is taught and the reinforcements of the idea
appearing in her adulthood. During the course of the novel she lives at five homes.
In each of these places, the idea of inner ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Jane Erye s next home emerges as the Lowood Institution where she spends six
years of her life learning to become intelligent and morally stringent, while
remaining visibly plain. Her lesson of physical and mental humility comes at the
hands of Mr. Brocklehurst, the institution s main benefactor. Upon seeing a girl
with natural curls in her hair, he proclaims: My mission is to mortify in these girls
the lusts of the flesh, to teach them to clothe themselves with shamefacedness and
sobriety (pg. 96). Such a strong influence on Jane, at such an early age, greatly
persuades her opinion of her own physical image. She feels her status in life always
remains as a humble and inconspicuous servant with a sharp mind and strict morals.
In spending six years of her most impressionable years of her life at such a repressive
institution, she learns a great deal of humility.
Lowood also teaches Jane a great deal by giving her one of the greatest benefits to
her life: a good education. Jane spends eight years of her life at Lowood where she,
had the means of an excellent education placed within my reach; a fondness for
some of my studies, and a desire to excel in all (pg. 115). Her education means
more to her than her simple appearance. She had the option of just sliding by in her
studies and leaving Lowood as soon as possible. Instead, she remains in a school

This author creates an invalid analogy when he compares smokers right to the civil
right sought by Black in the 1950s and 60 s. In an attempt to convince that smokers
are being discriminated that smokers are a potential target of violent antismoker and
overzealous public enforces. There are several problems that gave this argument
invalid. First, smoking in public area put other people other on risk and that is why
they are being discriminated. The discrimination against black peopleis just plain
cruelty because the white taught of them as less because of their skin color. While
smoking it puts other in danger, therefore, they don t approve of people smoking
especially in public area. Second, the civil right movement was to give freedom

An anchor is a specific word which represents behaviors classically conditioned to
evoke a specific response. This response can be cognitive or behavioral. An anchor
does not need to be to be reinforced with its response and it does not need to be
conditioned over a period of time. Language is a common anchoring system. For
example, the word dog will be an auditory anchor to an image of four legged animal
that barks, an effective anchor with little cognitive effort. The smell of a hospital or
a family member screaming in anger is examples of anchors that have been
unintentionally installed and they operate out of an individual s awareness and direct
control. Neuro Linguistic Programming operates to install new anchors which work
just as well as these unintentional anchors and work toward evoking a response that
increases the behavioral flexibility of a person and it is through these anchors that
changes can be made in the strategies of thought. Using NLP a therapist can establish
a map of one s cognitive representation of the world and place anchors that be
established in a clients strategies that provoke responses that differ from those
expected using their original strategy. It is now used internationally used by millions
of people throughout the world in such diverse fields as management, sales,
marketing, public relations, education, therapy, the military and police, sport, and

Introduction
Rheumatic arthritis (RA) is a chronic, progressive disorder that commonly presents a
group of mechanically related disorders concerning the degenerative nature of joints
that is specifically affecting the articular cartilage and subchondral bone (1). Thus,
causing a dip in the quality of life in RA patients. The aetiology for RA is unclear,
however, a combination of hereditary susceptibility causes a reaction that causes
severe inflammation in the synovial membrane (1). However, other factors such as
the immunological, hormonal and environmental factors plays a role in development
of RA (2). The pathology of RA is characterised by an insidious order of biological
events that will eventually lead to articular cartilage destruction and secondary
changes in surrounding tissues (1). The pathological changes to joints consequently
lead to structural deformity and functional disability. The clinical presentation of RA
patients are often intermittent joint pain, worse on movement; stiffness; and, limited
range of motion (ROM) and joint instability, either due to loss of articular cartilage,
or effusions into the joint cavity (1 3). ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

The cold within him froze his old features. I believe that this description shows that
Scrooge is unbelievably cold hearted, even unrealistically so: No wind blew bitterer
than he, no falling snow more intent upon its purpose, no pelting rain less open to
entreaty. Foul weather didn t know where to have him. This description displays that
not even the weather has an effect on him, it is also apparent that Scrooge s
personality was worse than any weather, he was bitterer than any blizzard colder than
any rainfall.
Scrooge s attitude to others is terrible, he is not at all courteous to anyone he meets.
He is especially horrible to his clerk, Bob
Cratchit who he pays terribly. He does not allow Mr.Cratchit to have any time off
work during the year, except Christmas day: (Which he does very bitterly and
reluctantly) ...a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous old

tirelessly for long hours all through the year, and permitting him to have one day
off. Trying to get him work incredibly hard for every penny Scrooge parts with.

Throughout the book, The Western Place , by Maxine Hong Kingston, there is a
differential gap between the two sisters who come from two different sides of the

quiet while she observes the lifestyle of her sister and nieces and nephews. In the
chapter , at The Western Place , Brave Orchid sends for her sister Moon Orchid to

remarried. However, conflict arises as the two sisters have complete opposite
thoughts and personalities. Brave Orchids whose name completely describes her

fine without her husband, she feels pressured by her sister to do what was asked of
her. While Brave Orchid is the complete package of what a chinese woman and her

This suggests that Hank s parents, like many people in modern society, will not find
happiness because they live with insatiable desires and therefore will not get the
feeling of satisfaction in their lives. The characterization of Hank himself also
shows how people in the contemporary society always want more. For example,
when Hank woke up from his dream about his socks, he realized that nothing good
or special or wonderful has happened to him. (7) This shows that Frank is idealistic
and has superfluous expectations in life. Also, Hank has a nice girlfriend who
cares about him and loves him, but he still thinks about how he would leave her
even though there are no reasons for him to do so. When his girlfriend asks him if
he was happy, he says, Sometimes I am. Mostly, I guess I just feel like I can t be
really happy. Just missing something important. (7) Another passage would be
when his girlfriend asked him if he likes her, he answered: sometimes I like you
and maybe I think I even love you a little. And sometimes I hate you. (7) We can
see that Hank is uncertain about his feelings for his girlfriend and if she is the
person that he wants to be with. Those are typical examples of a person who is not
sure about what he wants and believes that there is always something better waiting
for him. The thing that is missing for Hank is simply appreciating what he already
possesses. From this reasoning, it is clear that great

The first of these is the fact that perfectly sane people exist in whom fellow feeling
of any kind is so weak that an almost absolute egoism becomes possible to them,
and with it those hard vices such as ingratitude and cruelty which to Shakespeare
were far the worst. The second is that such evil is compatible, and even appears to
ally itself easily, with exceptional powers of will and intellect. (216)
H. S. Wilson in his book of literary criticism, On the Design of Shakespearean
Tragedy, addresses the character of the general s ancient:
With such a man everything is food for his malice. There is no appeasing him. His
ego feeds upon the misfortunes he contrives for others, and what he feeds on only
makes him hungrier. He is proof against pity and remorse alike, as his last
interview with Desdemona and his sullen defiance of his captors at the end only too
painfully show us. In short, he is the demi devil that Othello finally calls him, half a
devil and half a man; yet the littleness in each of his components is formidable,
spider like, and appallingly human besides. (54)

readers have had the opportunity to lead themselves. Readers are left to ask, what is

23. Racism And Its Subsequent Civil Liberty
The esteemed author Mark Twain offered commentary on a hypothetical society
which had unwittingly brought upon its own demise, when he said, But it was
impossible to save the Great Republic. She was rotten to the heart. Lust of
conquest had long ago done its work; trampling upon the helpless abroad had
taught her, by a natural process, to endure with apathy the like at home; multitudes
who had applauded the crushing of other people s liberties, lived to suffer for their
mistake in their own persons . A common theme of the animated television show
Futurama is the concept of multiculturalism and its subsequent civil liberty.
Futurama is set in the year 3000 and follows the adventures of a pizza delivery boy
who wakes up in the time period after being accidentally cryogenically frozen in the
year 2000. In the world today, relationships between countries and people are
becoming increasingly interconnected and this brings rise to new challenges, as a
result of this, the concept of civil liberty is important. While the world in the time of
Futurama is generally seen as more socially advanced, it still faces some of the same
issues and mistakes that modern society deals with such as social prejudice, national
pride, and foreign intervention. An apathetic attitude when faced with certain issues
can bring unfavorable consequences. Social prejudice is an innate defect in human
society and is a form of control that governs behavior. In Futurama, the largest
minority group is

Childbirth is considered to be a blessing and joyful event in most cultures. However,
for many mothers, this is not the case. Mothers who experience unplanned
pregnancies may be ill prepared and ill equipped to take on their new role as mothers
and the associated responsibilites. Even when pregnancies are planned, women may
lack the necessary social support needed after childbirth. Furthermore, many women
may not have a full understanding of how this event will impact them physically,
mentally, and emotionally. Nor are can they fathom how it will affect their roles,
relationships, and responsibilities. As a result, mothers may experience mood
disorders ranging from the baby blues to postpartum depression. Literature Review

28. General Information about Foams to Exinguish Fires
General Information about Foams Fire fighting foams are generally used to
extinguish liquid spill fires. When the flammable liquid is water soluble, it will be
diluted rendering the flammability to be nothing, but water alone cannot be used
for many reasons. If the spilled liquid is lighter than water and insoluble in water,
it will float on top spreading the fire. Water will steam and boil causing an eruption
increasing the acceleration of the fire s burning rate if the flammable liquid is oil
or fat. Water being added to a grease fire is a prime example of boiling eruption.
Dilution with just water is not ideal for deep spills because the dilution
extinguishment could take just as long as or longer than using foam. When the nature
of the spill is unknown, it is highly advised to use foam right away to avoid any
issues caused by water. Foam is a mass of bubbles formed from an aqueous solution
that is a specially formulated foaming agent. These bubbles are produced by many
different methods. The foam produces an air excluding, cooling, vapor sealing, water
bearing material that immobilizes or inhibits combustion with a continuous layer
over the spill. Deterioration and vaporization of the foam happens when it exposed to
heat and flames. The deterioration and vaporization help contain the heat and spread.
Foam is applied to a fire so that the volume compensates for the deterioration and
vaporization along with producing a residual foam layer. Although foam breaks
29. Similarities Between Jeddrich And Gatsby
Jedediah Leland is referred to as Charles Kane s closest friend, I believe the same
can be said of Nick s relationship to Gatsby. Perhaps, in the latter s instance, not so
much a friend but rather an exceptionally close acquaintance. Nick and Leland
share a few similarities, their close connection to Gatsby and Kane respectively as
well as their clear admiration and endearment towards them. They both hold high
standards for these men and are disappointed when they realize that they are
capable of human error. Jedediah and Nick are similar however, they are more
different than alike. Leland is disillusioned with Kane and eventually gives up on
him. Clearly when he sent Kane the Declaration of Principles it was as a symbol of
Jedediah breaking up with him, their friendship, their partnership, their trust. Nick,
however, seems to waver at times, but ultimately only go up on the gay for Gatsby
spectrum. When Gatsby finally admits the truth about Oxford, how he hasn t
technically lied, he s just extended the truth a bit, Nick isn t faced as he can say is
he wanted to congratulate him and how he experienced a renewal of complete
faith in him which he had experienced before (Page 129). Both Leland and Nick
have significant roles in the lives of Kane and Gatsby respectively, however they
are very different from one another, perhaps this is because Kane and Gatsby too are
very distinct characters. Leland starts off as Kane s closest friend, they had many
memories and

Concrete Floor
Concrete floor is one of the most durable materials in the world. It can be made with
waste products which help to reduce the consumption of valuable materials. It also
can be made from fly ash, slag cement, and silica fume, all waste byproducts from
steel mills, power plants and other manufacturing facilities.
There are the several types of concrete floor styles that can be stamped, stained and
polished. But the choice for the employee locker room will be a polished concrete
floor. For my opinion, polished floor will be suitable because it is economical,
durable, versatile, affordable, low maintenance and is a long lasting floor as show
in figure 1 (Ref.1). Polished concrete floor is made from an aggregate (rocks, river
stones and granite chips) which is mixed with a cement binder such as limestone,
calcium, sulphate and water.

U.S. History 1877
Primary Source
Frederick Douglass Slavery is a huge topic that consists of many inspirational
stories about former slaves. The story of Frederick Douglass was one of them.
Frederick Douglass was born in the year of 1818. He was a great civil rights activist
that had a big impact on African American History. Douglass was born into slavery
on a Maryland Eastern Shore Plantation. Unlike other slaves, Douglass was an
individual who made great effort to obtain freedom and equality. Although Frederick
Douglass was a slave, it did not stop him from getting his education, becoming a
freeman, and becoming one of the most influential leaders in African American
History. The most important thing ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
What enlightens me about Douglass was his drive for education. He taught me
while reading this Primary Source that despite what kind of obstacle that may try
to come up against your success, if you believe in what you are fighting for, there
is nothing that can stand in your way of accomplishing your goals. Over time I
have often struggled with understanding college math. So many times I have
wanted to give up but despite this feeling of agony, I chose to keep pushing myself
to stay in the class because I am inspired by the life of Frederick Douglass that my
goals will soon come to pass. In conclusion, Frederick Douglass was an African
American slave that fought to be free. His vision of being a freeman was inspired by
his desire for education and his relationship with God that taught him that God would
help those that help themselves. He was one of the greatest leaders of the abolitionist
movement, which help fought to end slavery in the United States. Fredrick Douglass I
really respect Douglass by stepping out on faith to help the Africans Americans to
have freedom as of today. He was a firm believer that trusted God 100
33. Negative Effects Of Eating Meat
While copious amounts of vegans live full lives without eating any substance
derived from animals, the human easily digests and absorbs meat, therefore their
health may improve if they eat meat. The physical and social evolution of the
human species shows a need for meat in the diet as the overall intelligence of the
species has increased as a whole. There is a plethora positive effect of eating meatthat
masses of vegans ignore, to their eventual downfall. The amount of negative effects of
avoiding meat is higher in number, including deficiencies and disorders. The human
digestive system is built to be able to ingest meat and vegetables. There is an
abundant amount of arguments proving that the human body is built to digest meat,
the physical evolution is major.
An important point of argument between vegans and meat eater is physical
evolution. The physical evolution of humans show the experts that people have
evolved to have the systems needed to easily and efficiently digest food. As humans
adapted their enzymes evolved to digest meat (Smil) this digestive change aided
higher encephalization and better physical growth. (Smil). The human body easily
breaks down meat as a result of these enzymes, making it easier for the body and
brain to grow. Without meat in the early human races diet, they wouldn t even have
become human (Kluger). The proteins found in meat made the human race more
human than the previous species of early people. Meat provides more calorie rich

Question 1: The three children from the video endure radical abuse, negligence,
and lack of social contact with their families and were isolated for long periods of
time. As a consequence the neural connections in their brain were very limited,
causing the brain hemispheres to shrink; as indicated by Doctor Bruce Perry in the
video. In the process the centers of language were damaged and the children missed
the time period where children develop their vocabulary. After they were rescue there
were serious attempts to teach them. In all, of the cases the progress was from

Moreover, being chained during her childhood certainly cause serious trauma and
become mentally challenged.
Question 2: The three children missed the primary social skills, which we learn
from our parents, relatives, and other social entities such as church, friends, and
neighbors. In addition, they had no opportunity to develop the looking glass self.
The periods of socialization that they missed were the learning period for language
acquisition skills, learning how to receive and express love to others, getting in touch
with the essential values of our culture, and learning the ethical values of society.,
The main causes of their disabilities were parent negligence, social isolation, and
abnormal development of their brain as a consequence of these factors.
Question 3
One can infer that the situation endured by these children is called the forbidden
experiment, considering that their experiences were against the normal parental love
influence. The conscious rejection, lack of parental love, negligence, and close
contact with children definitely left children to the mercy of nature. Nurture was
denied to the children due to their parents abnormal mentality and their social vices,
which almost destroy any sign of humanity from their offspring. Therefore, their
ordeals are the forbidden experiment, because these irresponsible parents stole the
opportunity from their children to be the best they could
36. The Presidential Election Of 1980 Essay
On Tuesday, 4 November 1980, The United States presidential election of 1980 was
held. The competition was between incumbent Democratic President Jimmy Carter
and his opponent, former Californian Republican Governor, Ronald Reagan. Reagan,
assisted by a falling economy complicated by inflation and high unemployment, and
the Iran hostage crisis, Reagan would win the election in a sweep, receiving the
largest number of electoral votes ever tallied by a presidential candidate not currently
in office. Jimmy Carter, who beat out Edward M. Kennedy for the nomination for
Democratic leader, attacked Reagan as a wild right wing fundamentalist. The former
actor, Ronald Reaganpledged to elevate the cynical mood of the nation, and won a
conclusive victory. This election marked the creation of what was called the Reagan
Revolution, and indicated a conservative repositioning in national government.
Throughout the 1970s, the United States underwent a wrenching period of low
economic growth, high inflation and interest rates, and intermittent energy crises. In
the spring and summer of 1979, inflation was on the rise and various parts of the
United States were experiencing energy shortages, Carter was widely blamed and
planned on delivering a major speech about energy conservation, but he thought the
American public did not care for what he had to say. In the mist of all this, Carter
went on the presidential retreat for the bilateral treaty on Camp David. For more than
a week, a
37. Ethcentrism In Rabbit-Proof Fence
The film Rabbit Proof Fence illustrates on the topics of ethnocentrism, and also, the
significance of perceiving the immense breadth of the Jigalong clan s customary
biological learning to depict the wrongs that jumped out at this gathering starting in
the 1930 s. As the half rank youngsters were taken from their homes with a specific
end goal to be educated like English kids, the men responsible for said operation
were endeavoring to strip away the nobility, as well as the conventions and character
of a culture that was viewed as unthinkable on the grounds that the kids were not the
same as supposed humanized society. A case of the ethnocentrismin the filmwould be
when Mr. Neville, Chief Protector of Aborigines states, Ensured against themselves.
On the off chance that they would just comprehend what we are endeavoring to
improve the situation them. Thinking that these children require sparing on the
grounds that the children live as per an arrangement of conventions and ways that
originate from their own history is identified with what is known as the White Man s
Burden, since this is viewed as an adequate purpose behind interceding in the lives of
others, when this is extremely not satisfactory.
Another way that the motion picture can pass on the distinctions in culture is through
the Jigalong s learning of nature and surroundings all through the film. At a young
age, the kids are instructed how to rummage and chase for their own particular
sustenance, which appears differently in relation to the supper courses of action in
the Moore River Native Settlement. Additionally, both the tracker, who is chasing
down Molly and her family can utilize the land for something other than nourishment
however a guide. Understanding those sorts of pieces of information gives the group
of onlookers an approach to see that the Jigalong clan s energy about nature in their
social esteems instead of seeing the emotional contrast and uncalled for nature of
living in the Settlement.
As we started the semester understanding the genuine significance of culture, we
create upon the ideas of Ethnocentrism and Cultural Relativism where the video
Rabbit Proof Fence becomes possibly the most important factor. While watching
38. Case Study Ryanair
Ryanair The Low Fares Airline Case Analysis
Issues
In 1985, the Ryan family founded Ryanair to provide airline services between
Ireland and the United Kingdom. Ryanair s strategy is based on providing a no
frills service with low fares to stimulate demand. Ryanair s business level strategy is
cost leadership. Although the firm faces weaknesses and threats, their strategy has
created a competitive advantage. Ryanair s competitive advantage will weaken over
time due to vulnerability to fuel prices, ancillary charges, low employee satisfaction
and their negative brand image.
Analysis
Porter s Five Forces analysis is a tool to analyze the external environment in which an
industry operates. In the European airline industry, the threat of new entrants is low.
Entrants will need high capital investments to compete with existing firms. The
substitutes in the airline industry are the railway networks, rental cars and sea
transports. Rental cars and sea transports are more expensive than the airlines
therefore they don t pose a threat to the industry. It takes longer to reach a
destination by train than a plane, which causes the threat of railways be low.
Existing firms pose a threat to the industry because there are 35 firms operating in
the European airline industry, which creates intense price rivalry among firms.
Customers are price sensitive and customer can easily switch to another airline
causing the threat of buyers to be high. Suppliers can charge a high price for their
39. Examples Of Hallucination In Donnie Darko

wanted to fix it properly at the same time to learn the truth if after life existed. Do
you think we could go back to our past life? If so, then can we fix our mistakes and
correct it properly? Well! These questions might be a puzzled to everybody because
as far as we or I concerned there was no record ever stated in the history that people
have a chance to go back their past life. Going back from the past life would be the
effect of hallucination or cognitive impairment because now a days as people are

So one thing he hope for was to believe in God, that God would help him to find an
answer or perhaps, God does a magical thing for him to go back to his past life.
Unfortunately, it would be impossible to go back to his past life and besides no one
ever successfully recorded in the history to the attempt of going back to the past life.
So I believed Donnie Darko was mentally distress and has a hallucination because
in the movie it shows that his loved ones died and he left emotionally distress.
Therefore, due to Donnie s distress he felt he wanted to go back to his past life to
correct what he did wrong. Also, almost at the end of the movie where sitting takes
place it shown that they drove into the mountain and they see where the sky opened
up. They could go back into the past life without encountered a problem. I think the
setting of the movie Donnie Darko was just a work of evolutionary thought that
creates a magical reference for the viewers. Also to puzzle s viewers mind what was

years to develop. Alcoholism begins when drinking starts affecting the physical and
mental health of the drinker they have crossed that invisible line into alcoholism.
The early stages of alcoholism usually go unnoticed by not only friends and family
but also the drinker. A person begins drinking in this stage for new reasons such as
daily stress or a personal or professional problem. They may drink to change their
mood or avoid the one they are currently feeling.
In the intermediate stage the drinker no longer needs a reason to drink. They may
even fabricate reasons to drink. He or she is now drinking way over socially

It s acceptable to talk business right after meeting someone. Business cards play an
important role in greeting someone in a business meeting. You should bow and offer
them your business card with the Japanese translated side pointing up. Knowledge
and learning is important in Japan especially when doing business. If given a
business card, you should show that you are interested in it. Taking time to read it
and ask questions like how to pronounce the person s name correctly and what the
person does in his or her position. You should treat the business card with respectby
putting it in your wallet or shirt pocket. You want to look professional and respectful,
showing interest in a person and trying to make a sort of bond is very important.
Body language plays a big role when communicating. Nodding helps let the speaker
know that you are listening and comprehending what he or she is saying. You want
to avoid being too close to the person you are speaking too, and avoid touching them
it s considered disrespectful. Also prolonged eye contact is considered rude. You
should try to make quick eye contact as you communicate, never stare. Hand gestures
also can mean different things so avoid talking with your hands and pointing. Silence
is a natural form of communication, its normal and you should not feel uncomfortable
if you are in that situation. Japanese people tend to use silence when they
communicate in a

Does everybody think or feels the same about childbirth around the world? This
question above is a question that has always been in my mind. Now that I got the
opportunity of choosing a topic to do research. I decided to choose childbirth and
culture. This research paper is going to talk about how different cultures and
countries look a birth in an entirely different manner. Some look at birth as a battle
and others as a struggle. And on some occasions, the pregnant mother could be
known as unclean or in other places where the placenta is belief to be a guardian
angel. These beliefs could be strange for us but for the culture in which this is being
practiced is natural and a tradition. I am going to be introducing natural and c section
childbirth. And, the place of childbirth is going to be a topic in this essay. America
is one country included in this research paper. In America, most of the childbirth s
take place in a hospital. I am talking about 99 percent of delivery and off that
percentage 34 percent is c section. An article by Lisa Selin Davis states, Well, it
turns out that we ve exported this model to the far corners of the world; in Japan,
Korea and China, Western style hospital births have all but replaced traditional home
birth in the last few decades. Meaning that these other countries mentioned above also
practice hospital childbirth. Contrary to other where home birth is still an option.

Prolonged practices and extensive team meetings take up most of the athletes time to
workout or train during the busy season. As a result, an athlete may start to lose some
weight and strength that they gained during the off season period of training. A clear
difference can be seen in the overall goal of in season training compared to off season
training. Maintaining strength rather than trying to build strength during the season
can prevent an athlete from the effects of overtraining. Generally an athlete should
focus on maintaining strength and staying flexible during the physically demanding
load of the season. All in all off season training is more taxing whereas in season
training centers around maintaining strength and energy as well as the flexibility of
the athlete. Training for football occurs all year round; however, training in season
and off season differ significantly through their intensity, dieting, and overall goal.
Offseason workouts are used for gaining strength, size and peak performance before
the start of the long season. In season workout should primarily focus on maintaining
