2. Polar Bears In Canada
Canada is home to many species of rich heritage, cultural significance and meaning
to the Canadian people. Of the many species, one holds a strong iconic significance
that plays a vital role in the very ecosystem it resides in. The polar bear species are
undoubtedly the apex predator of its food chain and a culturally significant species to
the indigenous people. With both these traits, it makes the polar beara true Canadian
symbol which is further emphasized by its very place on the Canadian two dollar
coin to the strength and endurance represented by this majestic species. However, no
matter how strong and enduring the polar bears are to the arctic, such resilience is
not as effective against the harsh changes their environment has gone through.... Show

With their habitat being wiped away, their own food sources being toxic, to the
very environment harboring chemicals; they are truly struggling to survive.
Furthermore, hunting, although not a threat on its own, poses a great deal of risk
to this species because of the threats outlined previously. If it were not for the
disadvantageous situation the species currently face, it would likely not pose a
threat at all. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the threats faced by
polar bears in Canada such as global warming, bioaccumulation of mercury,
biomagnification of polychlorinated biphenyls and hunting. Furthermore, hunting
quotas placed on northern Indigenous populations will be analyzed as a conservation
method that is helping to reduce further strain on the existing populations of this

3. Pros And Cons Of Uniform Crime Reports
The UCR ( Uniform Crime Reports) is a collection of data initiated in 1924 by the
director of the Bureau of Investigations (Today known as the FBI) J. Edgar Hoover
on crimes known to police departments.Currently approximately 17,000 city, county
and state law enforcement agencies which cover 95% of the total population of the
United States, voluntarily contribute information on crimes referenced by the reports.
The agencies represent over 254 million U.S.inhabitants, with a higher representation
in large urban areas (97%) than in smaller cities (90%) and rural areas (87%). If a law
enforcement agencyverifies a crimehas been committed, that crime goes into the
report, whether or not an arrest has been made. The UCR has two main classifications
of crimes, the first being crimes committed against another person, also referred to as
index crimes. This includes crimes such as homicides, sexual assault, robbery,
domestic abuse and crimes related to directly affecting another individual. The other
classification is crimes committed against property. This includes crimes such as
burglary, arson, motor vehicle theft, and larceny.
Criticisms:
The UCR represents more highly populated areas rather than small cities or rural
areas meaning that it may not be as accurate of a measurement for lower populated
areas
The crimes involved in the report only account for crimes verified by the police
departments which doesn t account for crimes even if an arrest was made, the police
agencies
4. Mass Murder In Orlando Research Paper
OPINION
After news broke of the mass murder in Orlando, Florida, many of America s most
relevant politicians took to the media to express there thoughts on the worst mass
murder in the country s history. That s 50 dead and as many as 53 injured by Omar
Mateen, a self proclaimed follower of ISIS.
While all of the requisite politicians took a moment to offer condolences to the
families of the victim s, it didn t take long for politics to take over. Once again,
President Barack Obama wanted to place the blame on guns and the country s attitude
towards the LBGT community. He also continued his unwillingness to associate these
terrorists attacks with Islamic radicals.

5. Associative Memory
The research says we can be moved by music at a personal level, to the point that
musical melodies evoke autobiographical information associated with it, and we get
a strong feeling of knowing , especially if the music we heard is associated with our
past. There seems to be a link between text and music, since we remember the titles of
music we listen to better than recalling the melody by reading or hearing the title. In
remembering vocals, we remember titles better than melodic cues. This can suggest
that music is encoded in semantic memorylike text by the brains perceptual memory
system, where meaning is encoded. Even if it is not directly related to semantic
information, musical information can also be associated with associative memory.
6. Free Will In Oedipus The King
Every action someone takes and choices he or she makes leads to their future.
According to the idea of fate, there is a development of events in every person s
life that is beyond their control and is certain to happen. One view of fate is that the
choices a person makes leads to their fate. Each action of theirs changes their fate
from the previous one. However, the other view is that no matter the choices a
person makes or actions they take, their fate is predetermined and cannot be changed.
A person s fate is preset and nothing they do can change that. All the choices they
make lead to that destiny. In the play Oedipus the King, the author, Sophocles,
challenges the idea of fate versus free will. Is fate set or does free will exist? Can one
s choices change the outcome of their fate, or is their destiny set from their birth? In
Oedipuslife fate was stronger than choice and freewill. From the beginning,
everything Oedipus did to avoid his fate led to his tragic end. Choices and actions
made all lead to the preset destiny. Throughout Oedipus the King, King Laius
receives a prophecy stating that he was to have a son that would end up killing him.

Oedipus, once he learned of his destiny, decided to move as far away as possible
from his father. This is where fate shows it has control. By leaving his parents,
Oedipus believed he could prevent his fate, however, his lack of knowledge on his
adoptive parents was fate at work. Laius s previous decisions led to Oedipus having
adoptive parents, which in turn led to Oedipus leaving his home to prevent his
destiny. By leaving, Oedipus walked straight into his fate. Oedipus then murdered his
father in a street brawl, completing Laius prophecy, and the first part of his

Change is hard at first, messy in the middle and gorgeous at the end, said Robin
Sharman. Advancements and progress that came from innovational minds took

gave birth of the bright minds of the Wright Brothers that gave the world s first
successful airplane, also the modifications of the corset gave way to new fashion
styles and trends and finally the tragic Galveston Hurricane paved the pathway of
new mechanics and progressive ideas. Before, the thought of people being in the air

9. The Power Of Community Organizers
Saul D. Alinsky believed in the power of community organizers. In 1972, he wrote
a book titled Rules for Radicals in which he created a set of thirteen rules of tactics
to be used by community organizers. Community organizers are known as change
agents; someone who sees a need for change in an organization and must overcome
opposition to bring about change. He wrote a second set of eleven rules
comparing ends versus means. This set of rules is used to answer the question,
Does the end justify the means? In today s business world, many people follow
some of these rules in how they run their business. In some situations, this is a
good thing, in others, not so much. Through studying his rules, I found a few that I
agree with and others which I did not. Alinsky s fourth rule of tactics reads Make
opponents live up to their own book of rules. I agree with this in a normative sense.
In today s society, people tend to be quick to judge others for their wrongdoings,
but are quickly upset when someone points out our own. I believe that we should
take a different approach. Before we point out the flaws of others, we should first
make sure we are doing right. Matthew 7:3 5 states Why do you look at the speck
of sawdust in your brother s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?
How can you say to your brother, Let me take the speck out of your eye, when all
the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of
your own eye, and then
10. Essay on The Doctrine of the Lord s Supper
The Doctrine of the Lord s Supper
Introduction
I think that no doctrine inside Christianity was as arguably and problematic as the
doctrine of the Lord s Supper (Eucharistic). Not only that century old fighting s is
going on around the text: This is my body (1.Cor.11:24) between Roman Catholics
and Protestants, but there is nonconformity regarding the question among Protestants
themselves. The first notification of the Lord s Supper set a division among Christ s
disciples, as they were shocked when Christ told them about the suffering that He
must go through, so they said: This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it? (John
6,60). The cause of this fighting is based on a question of understanding the nature of
Christ s presence in ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The church itself, which participates sacramentaly in making individuals into
Christians, realizes its own being as church in the Eucharist.
To this statement I would add the words of professor Janos Pasztor: The sacrament
of Lord s Supper is not only an addition to the Church, but it is an energy of the
Church that binds a humanity with the Kingdom of God that will come.
In order to understand the meaning of Lord s Supper when we talk about
Eschatology we will talk about the Passover because Lord s Supper lies on its
grounds. We will see what was the goal in Christ s choosing the Passover to
establish the Lord s Supper. First part of this paper will talk about Passover in the
Old Testament (its establishment, celebration and meaning) and in the New
Testament. In the second part we will talk about the Lord s Supper, its establishment,
meaning, names and connection with the Kingdom of God. Since the relationship
between Lord s Supper and Kingdom of God is faintly investigated, it would require
much more space then we are able to use in this paper, so because of the limited
space we will concentrate on the, in my opinion, most important elements.
The Passover in the Old Testament
The Passover is for the first time mentioned in the Bible in Exodus 12. In this
chapter one event is described which is placed before the Israelis coming out from
the Egyptian bondage. In the Bible we read (Genesis 46) that Jacob on a call of his
son Joseph came to Egypt and
11. Matchgirls Short Term Significance
What was the short term significance of the Match girl strikes. In 1888, a disturbance
in east London caught the public eye, as around 1400 women and teenagers left their
place of work at Bryant and May s factory. The strike had occurred due to mounting
tension between the owners and workers after the publication of Annie Besant s
findings about the conditions in which these women worked in. The Match Girls
strike of 1888 had great significance in the short term as its success highlighted the
importance of organisation in striking, the importance of gaining support and
sympathy from others, the importance of leadership during the strike, and the
significance of the Matchgirls in regards to their exposure of the hazardous working
conditions... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The power and success of the company was a key factor in significance of the
Matchgirls, due to it being such a high case strike, due to Bryant and May being at
peak of their power and influence at the time, the strike inevitably ruined their
credibility and the boycott which Besant set up damaged their sales during the
strike. This demonstrates the power of the lower classes has which would later go
on to inspire other strikes where whole communities of people strike against big
companies such as the Dockers strike, and the General strike, and the miners strike
of 1984, and thus massively increase the power and significance of trade unions.
The role of Bryant and May was vital in the strike, such as the way in which they
attempted to manipulate the public into seeing the Matchgirls in a different light,
as already discussed. Bryant believed he had always endeavoured to be a
conscientious employer of labour and he had tried give his workplace as fair
remuneration as profits would permit , however this is clearly shown in the
reduction of wage in the years between 1880 1888 and the expansion of the company
between these years. Eventually the owners of the factory accepted their defeat and
met the clauses of the strike, by banishing some of the fines imposed on the women
when working, allowing them to eat in a different room, and reinstating those who
were

self esteem in her essay An Army of One: Me , and she sheds light on the difference
between baby boomers and the generation me, making us to rethink why self esteem
is such a severe problemto the generation me, but benefit the boomers. Though it
may sounds hard to understand what causes the difference, but by viewing Maggie

importance of making slow thinking , which means thinking carefully before rush

A misleading immediate context can give false sense to the GenMe, while a
positive immediate context can give solutions to problems. When saying
immediate context , Gladwell claims it as Specific and relatively small elements in
the environment (162). These small elements, or signals, are serving as tipping
points, which shows that changes are always possible if we can simply change the
immediate context. That is, we should always notice the both sides of immediate
context. For example, when the crime rate was extremely high in the New York,
David Gunn realized that graffiti in the subway system is one of the small
elements that send disorders to the public. On the one side, The graffiti was
symbolic of the collapse of the system (Gladwell 152). On another side, the graffiti
also gives a solution to the crime problem that if we clean up the graffiti, signals of
disorders will be changes immediately into good orders. Similarly, most of the
GenMe misunderstand the meaning of high self esteem because they received
wrong signals from the immediate context. Twenge lists some examples of the
educational immediate context by saying that, In the United States, office stores
have started carrying large stocks of purple pens, as some teachers say that red ink
is too scary for children s papers (499). The change of colors is one small signal, and
students will respond due to this signal automatically. Instead of feeling
13. Indentured Servitude In The 17th Century
The 17th century also known as the Age of Reason was the spread of European
influence into the Americas, Caribbean, and Africa. This caused the spread of ideas,
goods, and even faith which lead to the creation of new colonies. To maintain and
support the colonies there s a need for laborers which cause the two main these of the
17th century. These themes are indentured servitude and the concept of slavery.
Jamestown was founded by English, colonist its location provided protection against
Indian and Spanish attacks. The Virginia Company was made to turn quick profits for
England, but many hardships developed to prevent that. Making a new colony with
lack of money was difficult and with that issue, hunger, disease, and deaths followed.

Even the journey there many people caught scurvy and the bloody flux. In Richard
Frethorne Letter to His Parents (Virginia, 1623) Frethorne explains his working
and living conditions as a servant. As soon as he got off the boat all he ate was peas
and loblollie which is water gruel. So, food was scarce in Virginia for the
indentured servants. The indentured servants had to work hard early in the day to
late in day for some pitiful meal. The servant s lives were also dangerous because
of the combat against the Indians. It was also dangerous because of the diseases
spreading around. In Richard Frethorne Letter to His Parents (Virginia, 1623) he
said he owns nothing but one suit, on pair of shoes, and one pair of stocking, and
one cap, and two bands. Everything else was stolen by his fellow servants. These foul
working conditions began great resentment of Englishmen towards England and also
caused rebellions like the Bacon rebellion. This eventually ended the indentured
servitude and increased the growth of slavery in

a melodramatic phase of transformation that she awakens to the boundaries of her old
style society and growing with freedom. Then, we look at Edna Pontellier awake in
circumstances that have metaphorical awakenings to a new modern womanwith
sexual experiences. Edna fights off the common and ordinary structures of
maternity that force her to be well defined by her designation as spouse of Leonce
Pontellier and mother of Raoul and Etienne Pontellier, instead of being her own, self
defined individual. Chopin s focus on two other female characters, Adele Ratignolle

I hope Mrs. Pontellier does take me seriously. I hope she has discernment enough to
find in me something besides the blaguer (Chopin 1225). Once he comes back he
admits the dead end of his intents, and maturely disregards Edna s claims of
freedom. Notwithstanding his truthful love and imperative lust, Robert can t get out
from society s judgement. Robert then leaves a sentimental note at her house I love
you. Good by because I love you (Chopin 1294) completes Edna s underserved life.
Robert s eventual loyalty to settlement and society congeals her lack of happiness.
Even though Edna saddens because of his denial, the sudden suicide is not because of
Robert departure, but instead of the ultimate awakening, she comprehends.
Consequently, notwithstanding her acceptance that she has woke to a necessity and
a capacity to outflow the restraining roles of a wife and mother, Edna is still trapped
in under these roles and will only liberate from them through death. Leading to
destruction, as portrayed by Chopin, because she has not been able to get over the
hold to nature of maternity and the social standards for

Throughout our lives, we have heard many stories about the creation of earth and
humans. Whether they are religious based, myths, folk tales, or stories passed on

everything came to be. In the myth, The Creation of the Universe and Human Beings,
the creation of earthis explained through two gods that essentially fashioned heaven
and earth, as well as a goddess named Nu Kua that created human beings.
Throughout this story there is a common theme of creation, and the explaining of
how earth and human beings were created. Although this is a Chinese culture based

16. Earl Warren s Impact On American Society
Nearly 100 years after the emancipation of slaves, African Americans still
experienced the brutality of discrimination and various forms of oppression. Jim
Crow laws and Black Codes during the 1890 s, segregated public facilities and
increased tensions between races. Individuals like 36th President Lyndon B. Johnson,
and Chief Justice Earl Warren, attempted to address civil right issues within American
society. Their important contributions led to an increase in rights and equality among
all Americans.
As a justice, Earl Warren s rulings overturned many laws and expanded individual
rights. A significant court case Warren dealt with was Brown vs Board of Ed. It
involved a girl named Linda Brown who had to walk through dangerous pathways
to get to her all black elementary school. She could not go to an elementary school
five minutes away from her house because it was segregated. Brown s family took
the case to court and declared that the segregation of schools, was a violation of their

facilities are inherently unequal and not just in society. He overturned a ... Show more

Johnson, had also tried to resolve and diminish problems of prejudice. Johnson
passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which banned discrimination based on race,
gender , and religion in all public places. This Act re enforced the 14th amendment,
and played a huge role in achieving rights among African Americans. Another Act he
passed was the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which guaranteed equal voting rights to
African Americans. Not only did these acts increase individual rights, many
Americans have used it to challenge discrimination and harassment based on race,
religion, gender etc. The promise of equality among all Americans sparked the Civil
Rights Movement in the 1960 s. Activists had the ability to protest their civil rights
since it had been established by Johnson s

We ve all heard about electronics in schools, whether you are a parent who has

revolutionize learning, but it also has a slew of consequences. So we are left with
the everlasting question of whether or not it is a viable method of learning.
It can be seen that there are obvious disadvantages in the system, but some other
effects, whether it has to do with health, the environment, or costs, go unnoticed by
the general populous. In a study done by the American Optometric Association, it is
shown that using computers in school increases the odds of a problem called
Computer Vision Syndrome, which causes problems such as headaches, eyestrain,
dry eyes, and blurred vision. Another medical problem has been given the lovely
name Text Neck . It is a condition that is caused by exerting more pressure on the
upper vertebrae of the spine, which causes wear and tear on the spine and could
result in mass amounts of pain or required surgery. Also to be noted, it takes 79
gallons of water, 33 pounds of miscellaneous minerals, and 100 kilowatt hours of

According to Martin, about eighty percent of American advertising executives believe

socially acceptable to children. The tobacco industry is making billions and billions

elements tobacco companies use in advertisement to hook young adults. One of the
elements that often appears in the media is the association of young, attractive
individuals with cigarettes to convey to the youth that smoking is appealing. This
method works very well because many think that smoking enhances their self image
and attracts other. The ideal student should be able to recognize that ads are deceiving

A Lesson Before Dying by Ernest J. Gaines tells the story of how Grant, an
educated black man in Bayonne, helps Jefferson, a black man who is going to be
sentenced to death by electrocution, become a man by his godmother s wish before
he dies so, he can die like a man. In the novel, Gaines introduces characters who
display a changeas the novelgoes on. Many themes are shown throughout the novel.
One theme in A Lesson Before Dying deals with how a certain character s growth
propels another character to change. Gaines displays this theme between Grant and
Jefferson. There are many examples in the novel that support this theme. One
example in A Lesson Before Dying that displays this theme is Grant s attitude and
feelings toward his hometown of Bayonne. In Chapter 4, Grant describes Bayonne to
the reader. He says that in Bayonne there was a Catholic church uptown for whites; a
Catholic church back of town colored (Gaines, 25). From the description of the
churches, it can be interpreted that Bayonne is a town mainly built on racism. One
prominent feature in the town that stands out is the slaughterhouse. Grant describes
it as a slaughterhouse, mostly for hogs (Gaines, 25) which foreshadows Jefferson s
death. Later on in the chapter, Grant is with Vivian, his girlfriend, and he tells her, I
need to go someplace where I can feel living (Gaines, 29). This quote shows that
Grant wants to leave Bayonne and run away from there. This may be because of the

beat up, injured, or killed, only to return in the very next episode, good as new. As a
result, children learn that there are few, if any repercussions for committing violent
acts.
In a recent incident in Norway, two children beat another child by jumping and
kicking the child in the head and other parts of her body numerous times. As a result,
the child died from being left out in the cold because she was not able to move due
to her injuries. Later the officials had discovered that the barbaric incident was due to
the fact that the children had watched the violent cartoon Mighty Morphin Power
Rangers. The children thought that the girl would later get up because in the show
the characters never die. Consequently, the show Mighty Morphin Power Rangers
was canceled throughout Norway.

25. Juvenile Crimes Of Juveniles
Do you know of anyone who has been a victim of a major crime? I live near the
nation s capitol and our local news channel carries stories about people meeting this
fate every day. The worst part is that the criminal is often under the age of eighteen.
In 2016, in Washington, D.C. alone, there were 3,278 juveniles arrested for criminal
activity ( Biannual Reports ). I find myself wondering if that criminal will be tried as
an adult or merely spend time in juvenile detention. I wonder if the child understands
the gravity of what they did. I am certain the victim of the crimeis not thinking they
were just a child; they didn t know any better.
The United States considers a juvenile to be an individual seventeen years of age or ...

Young adolescents (before age nine) primarily show pre conventional morality.
This stage of moral development is when an individual learns to obeys rules in
order to avoid punishment. Pre conventional morality development in young
children demonstrates that they are capable of understanding that there are laws
that need to be followed and failure to follow them will result in serious
consequences. Older adolescents begin to show conventional morality. In this
stage of development, an individual is a rule follower , simply because it is the
right thing to do. The final level of Kohlberg s morality theory is post conventional
morality. Kohlberg believes most people do not reach this level of development
(Myers 448 450). These studies would indicate, regardless of the stage of moral
development, adolescents are competent of abiding by laws. A common crime in
my area has been attacks of metro riders by teen gangs. These attacks have resulted
in injuries rather than robberies and are a popular post on social media for the
gang members. One rider that was attacked said he believed the gang did this just
for the fun of it (Uliano). If an adolescent has the moral reasoning to know right
from wrong, they should be held accountable when they choose to do wrong. Justice
cannot be equally fair and apply to everyone if the rules are according to age instead
of severity of crime. For example, in 2016 in Washington, D.C., juvenile crimes

Executive Summary Introduction
The rise of the U.S. health club industry can be traced back to the 1980s and 1990s
when the majority of health clubs emerged. By 2004, this $14 billion industry
claimed 41 million members. Although the health club industry operated in a
perfectly competitive market, several prominent key players gained large market
share, including Bally Total Fitness and 24 hour Fitness. This perfect competition
encouraged entry of smaller emerging firms into the industry. In 2004, the health club

Analysis
A number of recognizable key factors are responsible for the rise of the health club
phenomenon. The most notable factor was the growing concern of people s overall
health and well being. Awareness about the impact of obesity related diseases on
the quality of life and available health resources was heightened, especially
following a statement issued by the Surgeon General s office, which estimated the
annual mortality resulting from obesity complications to be over a quarter of a
million. Further research at the time showed about 6 in 10 American adults were
overweight or obese, with only 4 in 10 adults falling within the healthy people
indicator bracket. Between 1964 and 2004, 28 Surgeon General s reports had been
issued, all of which described the epidemiology and health consequences of unhealthy
behaviors.1. This general awareness resulted in about 17% of the U.S. population
becoming more enthusiastically committed to fitness activities, with 63%
recognizing the importance of fitness activities and 25% of whom actually attending
health fitness clubs. Also, a recent survey showed that 37% of exercisers were
motivated by the desire to control weight. Consciousness about body image and the
desire to reduce stress and meet new people also had an impact on the health club
phenomenon.
27. Ambition In Beowulf
The poem Beowulf is translated by Burton Raffel.Beowulf is centered around
Anglo Saxon cultures. The Anglo Saxons worshipped their lord, and their main
values were their families. He was expected to provide opportunities for plunder
and glory for his followers. The king`s life was also much easier than the town
people but with being a king came consequences; if he did not provide the town
people with what was needed, the king might have been killed( Life in Anglo Saxon
England ). The poem Beowulfis about an epic hero who risked his life to save a
kingdom. Beowulf exemplifies an epic hero by his loyalty, courage, and ambition.

The two books The Outsiders and The Wednesday Wars are very similar and
diverse in countless ways. The location, main characters, and influences help
demonstrate these similarities and differences. In the book, The Wednesday Wars,
Holling HoodHood lives in Long Island with what his father likes to think is the
perfect family. He is a 13 year old boy who goes to Camillo Junior High but with
this time in history, during the Vietnam War, his life could change. For Ponyboy
Curtis life is almost completely different. Where he lives, life is not the all
American dream. Competition between the Socials and the Greasers is always a
constant threat for him and his gang. Ponyboy Curtis is a greaser like no other. His
ability to comprehend school subjects set him apart from the rest of his gang. In
both books you would be able to find similarities in where they take place, the main
characters, and the people who influence their lives. The location of where each story
takes place affect the main characters differently. The setting of The Outsiders is fun,
dangerous, disturbing, and even heart wrenching. Ponyboy describes the town as
being economically split into two parts, East and West. These two parts cause
Ponyboy to worry more about the Greasers and the Socials than current events. This
quote demonstrates how the location has affected Ponyboy s lifestyle, Sixteen years

29. Artificial Intelligence In Frankenstein
Artificial intelligence is undoubtedly a widely debated topic in today s society.
Many groups suggest that it could soon enslave humanity, while others proposing
that it s harmless and only here to make our lives better. Mary Shelley s 1818 Gothic
text, Frankenstein, recounts the story of an ambitious, young scientist, Victor
Frankenstein, who is intrigued by alchemy and natural philosophy. Victor becomes
interested with these subjects after beginning at Ingolstadt and eventually executes
experiments that bring the dead back to life. He creates a creature who is outcast
by society, which provokes it to vow revenge on its creator. The creature
sequentially kills everybody that Victor loves and ruins his life (Shelley).
Frankenstein has the indisputable theme of creating artificial intelligence that turns
bad, much like James Cameron s 1984 film, The Terminator. In Cameron s film,
humanity creates an artificially intelligent program known as Skynet, which
becomes completely cognizant and overthrows the world by initiating a nuclear
holocaust. In the aftermath, a group of survivors create a resistance that attempts to
destroy the program; however, they are met with Skynet s cyborg army. Skynet
sends a terminator, played by Arnold Schwarzenegger, back in time to destroy
Sarah Connor before her son, the leader of the resistance, is born. Kyle Reese is
then sent after the terminator and, in conclusion, saves Sarah and destroys the
terminator (Terminator). This movie and text are closely related in the sense that a
character from either the book or motion picture relate to a character in the
alternative. Nick Bostrom, a philosopher and the University of Oxford, states,
...superintelligence could emerge, and while it could be great [...] it could also
decide it doesn t need humans around, (qtd. in Ford). This philosopher, like many
other technology critics, can see the effects that artificial intelligence may have on
our future, yet there is always the select group of people who cannot foresee the
consequences of their actions. For example, Victor Frankenstein is introduced to
science at a young age and when he went to college at Ingolstadt he met Professor
Waldman, whom shared a similar scientific interest.

Another two differences between these places of living are job opportunities and
cost of living. There are more job opportunities in the city. People in the
countryside have their farms. They grow different vegetables, fruits and make
money on it. For instance, In Mekong delta farmers make two crops a year. They
are Summer Autumn yield and Winter Spring yield ( What s the difference , n.d.).
Between these seasons of crop there is a distance. They do not do anything during
this period. In contrast, most people move to the city in order to find a job because
it is easier there. For person who has a good education, the city is the best way to
earn money because different offices, companies, factories are located in cities (
What s the difference , n.d.). For example, there are ChoRay hospital, Sacombank,
Vietnam Airlines, National University in Ho Chi Minh city and these companies
usually hire masters, doctors, engineers ( What s the difference , n.d.). Also another
difference between them is a cost of living. The cost of living in the city is higher
than the countryside, for instance goods are more expensive there ( Rural area , n.d.).
In the country, most people have the sufficient economy. They can grow plants and
breed animals so expenditures are lower and they can live on their own. The country
life is simple and comfortable. Nevertheless, to rent a house, to buy food and to use a

(Donoghue 18)
Through this, we see that the only other person who might be real is Old Nick. Even
then, Jack expresses the thought that Old Nick may not be completely real because
he is from Outside. Once Jack learns that outside is a real place he must being to
comprehend the idea that Outside has everything (Donoghue 71). As Jack begins to
think this through he states:
Whenever I think of a thing now like skis or fireworks or islands or elevators or yo
yos, I have to remember they re real, they re actually happening in Outside all
together. It makes my head hurt. And people too, firefighters teachers burglars
babies saints soccer players and all sorts, they re all really in Outside. I m not

(Donoghue 71) This is just the beginning of his thought process about the unknown
world he refers to as Outside. The perspective of the narrator allows the reader to
begin to understand the mind of a child. The author chooses to use this unique point
of view to give the audience the chance to think of what it would be like to be in a

The word collapse has a number of connotations associated with it. Some view it
exclusively the degradation of societies of the highest order. Others see it as the
complete disintegration of economic prospects and commerce. Some even think of it
political ruin with the demise of states and ruling factions that maintain order. The
most general definition for collapse can includes elements from these three
viewpoints. American anthropologist and historian Joseph A. Tainter is best known
for his writings on societal collapses. In 1988 he published his most widely
recognized work, The Collapse of Complex Societies. The core of Tainter s argument
in this work stipulates that societal success primarily hinges on problem solving
institutions... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Each of these seemingly invincible dynasties all went on to eventually collapse for a
myriad of reasons. The Western Roman Empire was marked by its vast territorial
supremacy, as it conquering its neighbors to absorb their energy surpluses whether in
agricultural outputs, mineral resources, or human capital. With the rapid growth of
the Empire, the cost of maintaining order, production, and other logistical elements
grew as well. This cost grew to the point there simply weren t enough resources to
defend against invasion especially when disgruntled peasants welcomed the removal
of Roman control. The Maya empire failed due to the burdens of competitive warfare
between the various city states of the region. This was unsustainable especially given
the population was already weakened by crop failure and drought. The Chaco Empire
failed due to the communities coming to the conclusion that the costs paid to the
central faction to be redistributed outweighed the benefits gained so they departed
one after another. (Chippindale 1) Tainter main argument is that the collapse of
societies stemmed from the failure of problem solving institutions. That once these
issues arose in the empires, the ruling factions were unable to provide solutions or
relief that would provide stability and support the citizens. Furthermore, the societies

This shows us what sort of person he is to become he starts off as whining and
annoying, but slowly becomes stronger, more powerful and a lot more evil.
When Commodus sees his father praising Maximus and smiling with him, this
makes him jealous and this clearly visible on his face. A look of resentment takes
over Commodus facial expression and shows us that he does not like Maximus at
all, and is also extremely envious of him because he has a stronger relationship with
his father than his own son does. Deceiving all those around him, Commodus falsely
goes up to his father lovingly and takes his hand. This shows us that Commodus will
not stop at anything to be loved, and knows how to fool a crowd.
In front of an audience, Commodus seems to be very fond of Maximus, but when
there I no one around to see them both, he is as cruel as a man can be. Threatening,
violent, disgraceful are all traits of Commodus that he only shows to Maximus.
This could be because he wants to show Maximus that he is not scared of him, or it
could be because he knows Maximus is too much of a man to go and tell people
about it. This shows that Commodus is extremely deceiving, however, it also shows
how much of a coward he is at the same time.
Because Commodus is clearly an emotionally unbalanced human being, when he

Your desire to start your own business is admirable. Dale Carnegie s How to Win
Friends and Influence People would assist you in furthering your business. Please
consider the following techniques when cultivating your skills as a business owner.
What s in it for them?
Many times, people only care about how they will be benefitting in any situation.
Because of this, business owners always need to think about what their employees or
consumers will be getting out of any transaction. This is the most effective way to
win them over. Business owners need to clearly illustrate the benefits for those who
have their company in consideration. According to Dale Carnegie, he was once
approached by the company that owns the grand ballroom that he lectures in. The
company said that they were going to be charging Carnegie at a higher price. Rather
than speaking from his own experience, Carnegie explained to the company how
charging him more would actually be detrimental to their company. By only speaking
calmly about the company and not himself, he was able to effectively convince the
company not to overcharge him.
In my personal life, if I ever want to convince someone to do what I desire, I always

Alabama (Simkin). There is a lot of things a reader may not know unless that reader
is a historian or has looked up this topic before. Anyway, in 1963a local black church
was about to have their 11:00 service on Sunday September 15, 1963 (Trueman). In
the women s room of the church four African Americangirls, Denise McNair (11),
Addie Mae Collins (14), Carole Robertson (14) and Cynthia Wesley (14), were getting
ready for the service while also talking about their first day of school (Simkin).
Then, within the blink of an eye there was an explosion that killed those four little
girls and injured many others. The man responsible for this devastation was named
Robert Dynamite Bob Chambliss. He was born January 14, 1904. The explosive
used in this bombing was dynamite hence the name Dynamite Bob for his
resourcefulness of getting dynamite that he then used to explode he church

Chambliss fleeing the scene before the police got there. He was then sent to trial
where he was only charged with possession of dynamite and got a $100.00 fine and 6
months in jail. After being jailed and paying off his fine his case was closed in 1968.

struggles students face in society and that they try to fit in, and yet they discover that
there s more that they can achieve. Another story that shows a similar content is
titled, Only Daughter by Sandra Cisneros. It is a storyabout a girl with six brothers
yet tells herself that the is an only daughter. Cisneros has had hardships of her own
when she was growing up with her familybecause she thought the wasn t being
recognized by her father as much.
Cisneros has three major themes in her story: such as relationships with parents,
terms of approval, and the perspectives people have of a woman s role. The
relationship with her father is that it was non existent, she tried to get her father to
acknowledge her, yet he wouldn t. All her father did was encourage her to go to
college and find a husband. She is there to please her new found husband; however
this leads her to introduce herself that she is the only daughter and only a daughter
(Pg. 401). Whether she meant it sarcastically or ironically.
Despite being shown any attention for her writing, Cineros shows a great deal of
determination without encouragement from her father. She tells us that we may not
receive support from those that we care about, yet we can still reach our goal. She
reaches out to those who have been or feel neglected by society. Or

Brutus possesses a gullible personality, which becomes justified when he trusts a
random letter, when Caesar reacts dramatically as he stabs him, and when he allows
Antony to give a speech at Caesar s funeral. After reading a letter lying by the
window, Brutus changes his perspective to Caesar completely. After reading aloud, he
fully believes that the revolt Cassius proposed recently is justified through a mere
letter thrown at his window. Furthermore, within this letter, he shows an inclination
in perspective right away as he says to himself: Shall Rome, etc. Thus must piece
out:... (2.1.51). He does not bother first to determine the true text and meaning of this
message, however, his judgement falls on first impressions, showing his lack of

This definition of just cause, which was set in 1967 by the Ontario Court of Appeal,
continues to be referred to today. When just cause is proved, an employee can be
dismissed without notice or compensation. Just cause can be defined as, employee
conduct that amounts to a fundamental breach of the employment contract. Just cause
can be found through any one of the following ... Show more content on

The employer may even input a program to assist the employee in increasing their
performance.
Unionized or tenured employees are a special case when it comes to being able to
dismiss an incompetent employee. For example, a professor, who has tenure, fits the
special case of an employee who has worked for numerous years in the position and is
then seemingly guaranteed the job for life. College administrators frequently claim
that faculty tenure prevents them from adapting the curriculum more effectively to
accommodate changes in the economy and to the patterns of student demand. Which
is why some commentators, of course, welcome the collapse of the tenure system,
saying tenure provides job security for indolent and incompetent professors. 4
Situations as above, makes people question why professors with tenure are able to
get away with being incompetent, but other employees need to be careful and avoid it.
The current precedent case in Canada acting as the authority in situations of
dismissal on grounds of incompetence can be found in the Manitoba Court of Queen
s Bench ruling of Boulet v. Federated Co operatives Limited; the decision delivered
June 25th, 2001. This case became known for establishing the set of criteria in which
45. The Married Life
Marriage is crucial to all adults. Couples need to value their marriage so that they
can remain happy and enjoy life while they are married. For a family to be well
established, the couples need to place more value in their marriages. The reason why
most families break up is that most of the couples do not value or prioritize their
familyissues. Most of the couples take their personal interests as their first priority,
which make them to neglect their families and this becomes the source of conflict.
A good example is seen in families where the husband loves football more than his
family thus, he spends a lot of time watching football. Such a husband will most
likely neglect his family because family just in order to enjoy watching football. If
there are problems in such a family, the wife will not solve them alone, as she
requires the husband s effort. For a family to live well, both husband and wife need
to commit themselves to each other first in their relationship. This is very important
in every marriagebecause good relationship between the husband and wife helps to
ensure unity and success of the family.
There is need to establish a good relationship between couples because this helps
them in solving their marriage and family problems harmoniously. Statistics show
that a family with good relationship among the partners will solve their problems
harmoniously (Guest, 32). The reason for a couple to get married is to give each
other mutual relationship where each of
46. Nepotism Is The Most Important Asset
Nepotism Employee is the most important asset in an organization. One of the goals
of the Human Resources Management in the company is to ensure that all employees
are being treated with dignity and equally. However, there are barriers that are
avoiding the situation from happening. One of them is nepotism. Nepotism that
derived from Latin word Nepot can be defined as unprofessional act that shows
favoritism to the relatives (Wikipedia). Nepotism usually occurs in business
managementand political affairs, but we will only discuss nepotism in business
company management. Nepotism can contribute to lots of disadvantages to an
organization such as unfairness to other employees, lower employees morale and
pressure to the relatives themselves.
First and foremost, the disadvantage of nepotism is unfairness to other employees
(Jones). The feeling arises because the employer shows favoritism only to the
relative s workers. There is possibility that non family employees will feel
disappointed and biased when they are being treated like that. Management who
practice nepotism will always make their relatives prior than other employees. Some
example of unfairness would bias while positioning job, assigning task or distribution
of benefits and rewards to employees unfairly. There is a significant relationship
between unfairness with employees motivation that influences the downward or
upswing of motivation level by the employees.
The second disadvantage of nepotism is lower
47. Ernest Hemingway Symbolism
In the wide swept plains of Africa, the sun stands as high as a tyrant, beating down
with unforgiving ferocity. The plains are infested with beasts that have claws, horns,
or tusks that growl, hiss, or grunt. These beasts lives are filled with struggle, trying to
survive; Death is not unfamiliar here. Assaulting the sun s blue domain, Kilimanjaro
stands unmoving: undying. No beasts live at the peak of Kilimanjaro and few beasts
attempt to summit the House of God. In the distance a man lies in the shade of a
mimosa tree, making an acquaintance with Death. It is the man s final words and
thoughts that make the story, The Snows of Kilimanjaro. The black ink on the
colorless page tells the story of this man, Harry, and his interaction with his wife on
his deathbed while remembering his own life and wishing he had done more. Behind
the bars of words lies a deeper truth common to all of mankind. Ernest Hemingway
conveys in his short story the placement of man in terms of the temporary and the
eternal. He depicts society s grievance towards death. He explores the permanence
of death and the denial of its power of mankind. Hemingway also presents two sides
of death, how it is both wild and savage, yet welcoming and trusted. By careful usage
of setting, characters, and weather, Hemingway writes more than a story of one man
dying, but the story of all men dying.
Harry lies under a mimosa tree, rooted in the heart of Africa. This setting is important
to the story in many ways.

X Men and Oppression In the X Men movie, there are great examples of oppression
that can be related to many past and present events. The most relevant event that is
similar to the way the mutants were treated, is how Adolf Hitler made people of the
Jewish descent wear Yellow Stars of David so they could be identified. In Bryan
Singer s movie X MenSenator Kelly was proposing a bill that would make all
mutants come forward and identify as mutants. In the early scenes of the movie,

Senator Kelly is trying to force the mutants to register themselves, the movie never
says what would happen to the mutants after they register. One can only imagine
what could happen, just because of what has happened in the past when the Jewish
people were forced to register, they were rounded up sent to work camps and
executed. Leaving you to think is that what Magneto is afraid of? In the first few
scenes Magneto is in a concentration camp being separated from his mother, he
fights back and eventually finds out he has a power. Is this the reason Magneto
wants to make everyone the same, so there is no more persecution. Or did he really
know his machine killed after it mutated, and was he was planning on killing the

50. Living On Campus Vs College Essay
One of the biggest choices a student who has graduated high school and is ready to
enroll in college must make is whether they should go away to school or live at
home and drive to classes. Everyone has a different opinion on this decision, and it is
based on the diverse lifestyles that people live. Most students who commute to school
are told that they are not having the full collegeexperience since they do not live on
campus and spend more time at home. On the other hand, those who live on campus
are told that they are wasting their money and they will not be giving the proper
focus to their studies. Both sides of the argument have positives and negatives, so it
is difficult to determine which one is the best for their individual life style.
Commutingto school and living on campus have several similarities and differences
they share, such as social, individual, and economical effects. College is the place
where most students meet their lifelong friends and even their future spouses, so the
social impact on each individual is tremendous. Some students, both commuters and
those who stay on campus, choose to isolate themselves from others and do not
attempt to be involved on campus or make any friends. This is a personal decision
that the individual could make in either living situation since the same opportunities
are available for all students. Even with the equal opportunity to make friends,
commuters are less likely to be involved in campus activities and only talk

Final Project
Language variation in Dutch: A Case Study Conducted in Brabant Province, The
Netherlands
Introduction
The study of sociolinguistics has become interesting due to the scope of its study is
very wide. Its study is not only about the study of the language itself but also the
context where the language is being used and the society who use the language.
Therefore, there are many aspects that can be taken into consideration when the
study of sociolinguistics is going to conducted. Those aspects are the social context
as well as social factors including social distance, social status, age, gender and class.
Furthermore, a language also appears varieties such as dialects, registers, and genres.
Before speaking, we tend to consider any aspects as part of social values in the
community. This can appear in a language we use in which we tend to speak
differently in term of different dialects, or genre in a different context for example,
we speak differently to a teacher, close friends, elderly people, or to our parents.
The way we treat people differently in term of the use of language is might be to
show a respect, solidarity, or even a distance. In term of a distance, both social and
psychological distance can be shown through a language for instance, a student who
speaks to a friendly professor that is socially distant but psychologically close and to
a very respected professor that is socially and psychologically distant.

Anne Shirley in Anne of Green Gables lived without parents for most of her life
and she wanted to change that. She yearned for loving parents, an education, and a
better life overall. Walt Masters in The King of Mazy May had a job to watch

The 2015 Creed Movie Poster has a banner of the famous Italian Stallion , Sylvester
Stallone, blurred out in the background. The poster has the images focusing on the
two main characters of the film, Adonis Creed and Rocky Balboa. Stallone and
Jordan, the two main characters, are facing each other with ambitious eyes. The
poster has very nominal colors, making it easier for the viewers to see the desire in
their eyes that they have for fighting. The gray scale color precludes the audience
from being overwhelmed by the bright colors and also articulates the true meaning
behind the life of a boxer and what they have to go through in life to get to where
they are now. The black washed out color throughout the poster signifies, power,
death, evil, and mystery.

everything about the Creed poster. It is blissful to see that Rocky still has that
hunger, the eye of the tiger look in his eyes, for boxing.
The images and signs that are being portrayed on the movie poster are patriarchy; it
shows a black and a white man, different struggles, different social class, different life
experience, different privileges
The Creed poster is appealing to the eyes because of the strength being expressed in
the fists of the legendary retired boxer, Rocky. Confidence is conveyed through
Rocky s glare, showing him how much power he has had to earn throughout the
years to be where he is at right now. a will for accomplishment, struggle for power,
ambition, hard work, patriarchy

The Hubble Space Telescope is one of the most amazing machines in orbit right

telescope in space would reveal better and clearer images that are even far from
earth than any ground telescope. This idea was very extravagant because no one
had yet launched a rocket into outer space. As the US space program excelled
quickly over the early years, Spitzer lobbied NASA and Congress to develop a
space telescope. In 1975, the European Space Agency and NASA began to develop
the telescope that would change astronomy for ever. In 1977, Congress approved
funding for the development of the space telescope and NASA named Lockheed

Scientists came up with a solution to correct the defect in which they came up with
a replacement contact lens called COSTAR. The Corrective Optics Space Telescope
Axial Replacement consisted of several minute mirrors that would intercept the beam
of the flawed mirror and relay the corrected beam to the scientific instruments at the
focus of the mirror. The Hubble telescope is a compound telescope design where
light enters the telescope through the opening and bounces off the primary mirror to
a secondary mirror. Then the secondary mirror reflects the light through a hole in the
center of the primary mirror to a focal point behind the primary mirror. At the focal
point, half transparent mirrors distribute the light to the various scientific
instruments. The Hubble Telescope mirrors are made of glass and coated with
multiple layers of pure aluminum that are three millionths of an inch thick and a coat
of magnesium fluoride that is one millionth of an inch thick to make them reflect
visible, infra red and ultraviolet light. The primary mirror weighs 1825 pounds and
the secondary mirror weighs in at 27.4 pounds. By looking at the different
wavelengths or the spectrum of light from a celestial object, you can tell many of its
properties and features. To do this, the Hubble Telescope is equipped with various
scientific instruments. Each instrument used

ads can be harmful to children. On the other hand, healthy food ads can be helpful
to children. Lastly I will offer my solution for a comprimise for both passages. My

unhealthy foodcan be harmful for children. It can cause obesity in children from
consumming too much unhealthy food. It will also cause them to make uninformed
spending and cause them to make thier parents do the same. Lastly it will make them
more suseptable to poor descisions in the future. I believe that ads with healthy food
can be very helpful to children. They can help promote healthy eating habits
57. Prejudice And Prejudice
Prejudice is a burden that confuses the past, threatens the future, and renders the
present inaccessible. This quote was written by Maya Angelou, and she wrote it
because when she was at a very young age, she was raped because she was black.
After she was raped all the kids at school made fun of her, so from that moment on
she decided to not let anyone be prejudiceor stereotypeanyone. So she started writing
quotes so other people can know how it feels and to share her story with everyone
else. At that age in her life, everyone was fighting about racism, people were
prejudice and stereotyping all the other people who were not the same skin color
as them. People feel like they have to change, for example they change their looks,
the way they talk, the way they dress, or even the way they act around people.
Prejudice and stereotyping negatively affect people s identity. In today s world,
people are using prejudice to negatively affect people s identity. People are
prejudice in many different ways today. For example, you can walk into the
lunchroom and see different cliques at different tables and not socializing with
anyone but the people at their tables. Even in highschool, cheerleaders, and
football players tend to only talk to their group of friends. There are teachers that
try to mix it up by pairing popular kids with unpopular kids, but even that doesn t
always work. In The Outsiders, The Greasers are very prejudice against the Socs,
The Greasers live on the East side and don t have a lot of money. The Socs, on the
other hand, live on the West side and have a lot of money and have anything they
could ever ask for. The Socs think The Greasers are gross and poor kids and The
Greasers think that The Socs are rich and super snobby kids. The Greasers and
Socs think this about each other because they have never really had the chance to
get to know each other, so the Greasers just assume that all of the Socs are bad and
only like to jump people. On the other hand, the Socs think that the Greasers are just
hoods and look for fights and are super weak and that they are way better than them.
This negatively affect The Greasers lives because they think that they need to be
something that they re not.
