Observation Of Migrant Mother
Make observations:
The migrant mother is in the foreground of the image, while her children are in the background of the
image. The migrant mother is the major element in this image, while the children are the minor
elements are the children. The mother is staring out in the distance, and appears to have a concerned
expression on her face. She is worried, and her clothes are ragged. There are three children in this
image: two of them near her shoulders, and another in her lap. It appears that the child in her lap is an
infant, and was born somewhat recently.
Connect the observations:
In 1936, the Dust Bowl was occurring in the United States. The Dust Bowl was a series of dust storms
that destroyed lives, and forced many citizens in the Midwest to relocate to California. According to
Lange, this image was taken in California. It is possible that the mother and her children have been
displaced from their homes, and are escaping to California looking for work. However, finding work
in California was often a fruitless effort. There was typically little to no work for migrants, which
could be a source of stress for the migrant mother. She has three children, but she is most likely unable
to feed them. This is further supported by the state of her clothes and her children s clothes. They are
tattered, which indicates there is not enough money to buy new clothes.
Draw inferences from the related observations:
A possible interpretation of this situation is that the woman has recently migrated from the Midwest,
and is struggling to provide for her family. She is in a difficult situation, because she loves her
children but is unable to provide them with an ideal lifestyle. Their faces are covered in dust, and the
mother is wearing an expression of hopelessness. The tone of this image is one of hopelessness, the
underlying emotion common in almost all the Okies at the time. The hardships have worn the migrant
mother down, and she is struggling to survive with her three children. There are no other family
members present in the image, suggesting that she is the sole provider and sole source of income for
her family.
Form a tentative interpretative conclusion:

Effects Of The Silver Bow Creek Copper
Copper is another pollutant that at very high levels is toxic and can cause vomiting, diarrhea, loss of
strength or, for serious exposure, cirrhosis of the liver (Pure Water Services). In order for copper to
metabolized the heavy metal zinc is needed. Zinc helps with copper breakdown but too much zinc can
cause a copper deficiency which can also cause problems such as anemia. While copper has some
severe side effects there have not been any cases that are related to cancer. In most cases throughout
the Silver Bow Creek copper is not thought to be a severe threat to the community.
Mercury is another toxic pollutant that may be found in the tailings and in the surface and ground
water supplies of the Silver Bow Creek area. While mercury is ... Show more content on

As people began to realize the damage done by the pollution of the environment nearly fifty years had
passed. By this time the contaminated tailings and toxins released from the smelters and chemical
treatment facilities had reached an outrageous numbers. With the help of the great flood of 1908 these
pollutants covered the Silver Bow creek banks from Butte all the way to the Milltown Dam. In 1911
the Anaconda Company began extensive cleanup efforts by implementing the use of warm springs
ponds as a water treatment facility (Citizens Technical Environmental Committee, 4). These ponds
were developed initially with the thought that they would be able to catch polluted tailings before they
were able to reach the Clark Fork River. There was an estimated 2,400 acres of warm springs ponds
built between the years of 1911 and 1959 (Citizens Technical Environmental Committee, 4). The
settling ponds were created to hold the mining wastes, acting as a dam so that the metals did not end
up in the Clark Fork River. The tailings are then covered over with lime to prevent them from leeching
back into the environment. This series of warm springs ponds provides treatment to the water in such
a way that the environment can cleanse the water of pollutants on its own instead. This treatment
method is accomplished with the water being further cleansed as it is transferred from pond to pond.

The Importance Of Being A Physical Therapist
1. A couple of years ago, I have decided that being a physical therapist was what I wanted to do for my
profession in the future. The reason why is that when I see people hurt around town it makes me want
to put what I am doing down and go over there and help them.I have always wanted to find a way to
help out the community and I figured becoming a physical therapist what right for me. I have always
wanted to become one but I never could decide when I was younger. My mom told me that I could
become if I just put my mind to it and never give up. She could tell that being one was what I wanted
to do. That is when it hit me, I wanted to become a physical therapist.

Physical Therapist also need to be licensed with a DTP (Doctor of Physical Therapy) degree. ALL
states required Physical Therapist to be licensed. (Bureau of Labor Statistics).
6. The advance in this occupation is saying how that there will be a job growth for physical therapists
which means that new jobs will be added in healthcare segments but it also states in Jobs.net that not
every healthcare segment will have a job growth. (Jobs.net). There is a strategy for this and it s by
achieving details offered by the crystal career ball. 7. Time for the work schedule. Some physical
therapists work normal business hours, 8 a.m. 5 p.m., but also some may work in the evenings or even
on the weekends. I would prefer the normal business hours and some hours on the weekend just
because if someone had missed their appointment during the week and they cannot make it up, they
can come on the weekend.
8. Let s take a look at any health hazards in this profession. According to Shmoop, PT s do a lot of
heavy lifting moving patients, manipulating multiple body parts, bending, stooping, squatting, and
even standing. A PT s constant movement is extremely taxing and heightens the risk of getting
themselves injured. (Shmoop). 9. Personal qualities that you need to have in order to be able to do this

How White Tailed Deer Affect Native And Invasive Plant...
How White tailed Deer Effect Native and Invasive Plant Species Populations in the Eastern United
States.
Introduction
Whitetail deer have come to be known as a keystone species, species known for affecting other
organisms in an ecosystem. Deer are known as a keystone species in forest habitats such as in the
Eastern United States because they are capable of destroying potential forest habitat of other
organisms (McShea and Rappole, 1992). For example, deer have a negative impact on forest
ecosystems by trampling and over browsing over vegetation, without creating any habitat for other
native species. Throughout the eastern United States, the abundance of white tailed deer (Odocoileus
virginianus) has increased dramatically over the last century (Taggart and Long, 2015). Population
increases could be due to increased habitat fragmentation from land development, reduced predators
and/or hunting pressure. Individual deer ranges varied during seasonal times, deer movements are
usually greatest during the peak breeding months from late fall through winter (Williams et. al, 2012).
Regardless of the cause, high deer densities can have significant effects on plant communities such as
plant decay and/or even death. Deer consume a large amounts of plant biomass (leaves, buds, flowers
and fruits) and directly reduce the growth, reproduction, and survival of herbaceous and woody plant
species (Shen et. al, 2016). The impacts of white tailed deer on forests along the Eastern United

Antipsychotic Diseases
The antipsychotic medications are recommended as pharmacological interventions to treat psychotic
episode in psychosis and schizophrenia (NICE 2014). They may be classified as atypical and typical
antipsychotics (Meltzer 2013). The atypical drugs refer to as the newer generation of antipsychotics
which may have less extrapyramidal side effects (EPS) compared to the typical antipsychotics, also
known as the first generation of antipsychotics (Meltzer 2013). Both types of antipsychotic drugs are
utilised therapeutically to manage positive, negative, and other symptoms of psychosis and

2012). The typical antipsychotics block the dopamine D2 receptor, which is believed to result in
severe EPS (Divac et al. 2014). Strong evidence suggests that haloperidol can cause increased EPS
such as akathisia, parkinsonism, and dyskinesia compared with the atypical antipsychotic drugs (Kahn
et al. 2008). Prolonged treatment with the typical antipsychotics could also lead to late onset of EPS,
which has a higher incident rate of tardive dyskinesia, characterised by involuntary and repetitive
facial movements (Divac et al. 2014). In addition, typical antipsychotics have been linked to elevated
prolactin, causing galactorrhea and amenorrhea, which the atypical antipsychotics are free from
(Hasan et al. 2012). Some typical and atypical antipsychotic drugs could cause impaired glucose
tolerance, insulin resistance, hyperlipidemia and weight gain, which increases the risk of type 2
diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases (Meltzer 2013). Both classes of antipsychotic drugs
could cause neuroleptic malignant syndrome, epileptic seizures, sexual dysfunctions, leukopenia and

sin, and could never take it away forever. On the other hand, the foreshadowing of the perfect Lamb,

heaven, the lamb slain, Jesus Christ. Now, the time has come to have faith in Jesus Christ for salvation
of our souls. The temple is no longer needed. In effect, no longer we need to wait for the foreshadow
of Jesus Christ, we no longer need to slain a sheep to cover our sins, we no longer need to seek God
on an altar, as he dwells within us through the Holy Spirit. God has never given us a spirit of fear,

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) are both known for
targeting athletes at a much younger age than the average person. ALS and CTE are similar due to the
fact that they are a progressive degenerative disease. Both diseases are linked with head trauma and
the loss of movement within the human body. ALS is also known as Lou Gehrigs disease; he brought
national attention to the disease when he was diagnosed in 1939. Adrian Robinson Jr. was a former

Essay On Klu Klux Klan
οΆ Intro Extreme deviance is behavior, beliefs, or physical traits that are serious enough to cast
violators outside of the conventional society. The Klu Klux Klan is one of the most well known
deviant white supremacy groups throughout the world. The Klan promoted their white supremacy
ideas by participating in violent acts of lynching and burning crosses. They retreated into macho KKK
attacks, scourging the homes and churches with their destruction, trying to browbeat the blacks into
submission with violent outbursts and threats. However, the K.K.K. s main goal was to weaken the
reconstruction governments and retain power for the southerners who had been in confederacy. οΆ
Norms The KKK murderers were deviant, at least according to northern white standards, but they
were the norm according to fearful southern thinking at that time. These were white men who were
hanging on a thread, afraid of true equality of the races for economic and deeply psychological and

οΆ Intro Extreme deviance is behavior, beliefs, or physical traits that are serious enough to cast
violators outside of the conventional society. The Klu Klux Klan is one of the most well known
deviant white supremacy groups throughout the world. The Klan promoted their white supremacy
ideas by participating in violent acts of lynching and burning crosses. They retreated into macho KKK
attacks, scourging the homes and churches with their destruction, trying to browbeat the blacks into
submission with violent outbursts and threats. However, the K.K.K. s main goal was to weaken the
reconstruction governments and retain power for the southerners who had been in confederacy. οΆ
Norms The KKK murderers were deviant, at least according to northern white standards, but they
were the norm according to fearful southern thinking at that time. These were white men who were
hanging on a thread, afraid of true equality of the races for economic and deeply psychological and
sociological reasons. Merton s strain theory supports that disorder is sometimes an aspect of progress,

Managing Brand Equity
ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to discuss and elaborate the main issues encountered in managing brand
equity. In order to achieve this purpose, we first analyse the concept of brand equity; second, we
provide a comprehensive framework for managing brand equity; and finally, we distinguish different
ways to leverage and measure brand equity. The concept of brand equity emerged in the early 1990s.
Brand equity can be regarded as a managerial concept, as a financial intangible asset, as a relationship
concept or as a customer based concept from the perspective of the individual consumer. The main

The Congressional District Of Missouri
Congratulations! You are a 2018 congressional nominee for Missouri s 5th district. Missouri s 5th
district is home to the largest metro area on the central Great Plains. The 5th Congressional District of
Missouri includes most of Kansas City, the largest city in Missouri, plus Grandview, and the bulk of
Independence. In post 2010 census redistricting, rural Lafayette, Ray, and Saline counties were added.
If you want to successfully campaign here, you will have to know who to talk to, where to talk to
them, and what to say. You will also have to understand the district from the inside out. First,
understand who you are talking to and who you will potentially represent.

Sundays at the Chief s Stadium. You may want to go to visitkc.com to take a look at some upcoming
events to attend.
One place you would want to wander would be the Country Club Plaza. This area is full of stores,
restaurants, shoppers, arts, and is also right down the street from the University of Missouri Kansas
City. Year round you can make campaigns here because it is always the go to spot for many people of
Missouri s 5th district. Every Thanksgiving night, a special guest comes to flip the switch for the Plaza
Christmas Lights. Showing up on stage at this event would give you major face time as this event is
televised by every local station and news crew. Show your face at sporting events such as Chiefs
football games and Royals baseball games. Kansas City is a city that really supports their sports
teams. If you support them, they will support you. Go downtown and do some campaigning in front of

The National Crime Victimization Survey
man pointed a gun at the boy, the boy shot the man. Who knows what could have happened if this boy
didn t have a gun. Him and all three of his young siblings could have been shot and killed. Guns save
lives, and in a nation that already has more than 200 million guns, gun control does little other than
make the work of rapists, robbers, murderers and psychos easier. When faced with gun control laws,
the law abiding citizen has no choice other than to disarm or become an outlaw, but people with bad
intentions are faced with no such moral dilemma.
On some level, even diehard advocates of gun control know this, which is why they want people with
guns defending them. Our police aren t going to disarm, the military isn t going to try to fight ... Show

Less than one percent of licensed firearm holders have had their permits revoked due to
misdemeanors. So, what happens when the bad man with the gun is right there and the military, the
police, and the President s Secret Service aren t on the scene? Then having a gun may be the
difference between living or dying, between being raped or being okay, between saving your children
or watching them die.
The debate over gun control in the United States has waxed and waned over the years, stirred by a
series of mass killings by gunmen in civilian settings. In particular, the killing of twenty
schoolchildren in Newtown, Connecticut, in December 2012 fueled a national discussion over gun
laws and calls by the Obama administration to limit the availability of military style weapons.
However, compromise legislation that would have banned semiautomatic assault weapons and
expanded background checks was defeated in the Senate in 2013, despite extensive public support.
Gun control advocates sought to rekindle the debate following the shooting deaths of nine people at a
South Carolina church in June 2015. These advocates highlight the stricter gun laws and lower
incidents of gun violence in several other democracies, like Japan and Australia, but many others say
this correlation proves little. It is a fact that countries with the strictest gun control laws also tend to
have the highest homicide rates. In Canada around 1920, before there was any form of gun

Lao-Tzu And Machiavelli Analysis
Lao Tzu wrote the Tao Te Ching back in sixth century B.C.E as he was exiling himself to a life of
contemplation. Before he left, the gatekeeper convinced him to write down his philosophical thoughts.
Machiavelli was an elite who lived in Florence during the late 1400s and the early 1500s. He wrote his
instructions, The Prince, during the instability of power within Italy after he was wrongly imprisoned.
Both texts give advice on the ways in which to rule a country, but because of the times in which they
were written, they promote separate ideas on the role of a leader, the view of humanity, and the way
their information should be presented.
The Master introduced by Lao Tzu and The Prince introduced by Machiavelli are two well renowned
embodiments of the perfect leader. A leader, according to Lao Tzu, silently leads his people by
allowing them to act and think for themselves. He even states, let go of fixed plans and concepts, and
the world will govern itself. The system of government, to him, seems to be a democracy, reaching
towards an anarchy. The Master embraces a role of quiet anonymity within society as Lao Tzu
believes, when the Master governs, the people are hardly aware that he exists. If that is not achieved,
then the next best thing is being loved, followed by being feared. On the other end of the spectrum,
Machiavelli believes in a dictatorship form of government. The Prince must have complete and utter
control over his citizens. Whereas Lao Tzu thought that a leader should be in the background,
Machiavelli believes in a leader that is feared above all. He states, ... he should maintain himself in
such a way that no man could imagine that he can deceive or cheat him. Power is the goal of the
Prince, in contrast to the enlightening of humanity that the Master promotes.
Human nature, to both Machiavelli and Lao Tzu, is the foundation for all of a leader s decisions. They
differ, however, on how humans inherently are. Lao Tzu holds the opinion that people will do the right
thing when rules and guidelines aren t present in society. Lao Tzu states, throw away morality and
justice, and people will do the right thing. A leader, to him, shouldn t focus on creating societal

Ethos Pathos And Logos Analysis
Before the building of architectural achievements such as the Roman Colosseum, the Taj Mahal, and
the Windsor Castle, a Greek philosopher named Aristotle had created the three pillars of persuasive
speech over 2,000 years ago. These three pillars are known as ethos, logos, and pathos. The
architectural feats mentioned above had been created to last and withstand demolition from external
forces such as the weather, aging, and cracking/erosion. Just like these buildings are structured, an
argument needs to be well put together so it cannot be torn apart. This resulted in the creation of the
three pillars. In the reading of Monstrous Beginnings, the author, W. Scott Poole, uses Aristotle s three
pillars attempting to convince the reader that among ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Pathos involves getting an emotional response from the reader, which is something that Poole
struggles to do in this writing. Although it is truly unfortunate how certain groups of people were
treated back then, Poole struggles to make you feel any sympathy for how the minorities were treated.
He does not include many stories that invoke feelings of anger towards the treatment of the natives or
pity or sorrow towards them. Another part that made his writing hard to read or feel any emotion over
were his long winded sentences. Many sentences went on longer than they should have, or could have
been cut in half to make shorter sentences so the material would become easier to read. Poole s writing
definitely leaned more toward the educational side than the emotional side as it seemed to read more
like a textbook than his own thoughts. However, there are a few examples in his writing that if he
made an effort, he could establish pathos much better. For example, Francisco de Chicora could have
made for a great story to establish pathos as he was a native who was kidnapped by Spanish explorers
and was forced into a different religion but was able to escape from them (179). However, the reader
learns the bulk of that information in the footnotes rather than by reading an emotional story that
would help establish the pathos in his writing. Poole is not able to evoke much, if any,

Reflection Of Personal Branding
After speaking with Christina on the phone, I learned how she experienced the summer Management
program during her undergrad as an English major at WFU. She was an English major and did not
know specifically what she wanted to do immediately after graduation. After applying to a couple
jobs, she received feedback from a stranger who happened to be a fellow WFU alum. This individual
did not think Christina would get a job at her company, but offered to spread her resume around.
Christina was extremely grateful for the kindness the other lady gave her, and she eventually landed a
role as part of a production company for her first job. Christina learned of her current employer,
Compass Professional Health Services, through a roommate who was a former employee of the
company. She encouraged Christina to apply for the open positions, which she later did via
Handshake. Hearing about her experience during the application and interview cycle(s) were great for
me to see how the job market functions for this particular company. One of the things that caught my
attention after Christina was offered and accepted a position at Compass was the training time prior to
officially starting. The amount of preparation before, and then observing and learning from others at
work was a great example for me to listen and visualize while thinking of the points discussed in

Causes Of The Industrial Revolution
By 1750, there was not much doubt that if any country was going to triumph in being the first
industrial power it would be England (Hobsbawm 29). However, several factors were responsible for
England s emergence as an industrial power. Some of the contributing factors for the Industrial
Revolution were: the increasing importance of imperial goods such as cotton, cultural traditions that
stemmed from the Renaissance and the Reformation, population change, and a government willing to
subordinate all foreign policy to its economic ends. Socially, the Industrial Revolution in England
changed exponentially with the growing drift between the class hierarchy. Instead of reverting to
social revolution as occurred in France, England experienced political reform during the Industrial
Revolution that would become a symbol of hope for thriving countries. There has been much
speculation on the exact reason the Industrial Revolution began in England in the late 18th Century,
but certain components are undisputed for the Revolution s occurrence there. Initially, Britain already
had a large, developed supply of coal and iron which gave the British a start in mass metallurgy (Perry
286). There also was a surplus of capital available for investments to be made in new industries;
however, these funds came from wealthy landowners and merchants who had grown rich in commerce
through the slave trade (Perry 287). With the start of their own capitalist industrialization, England

Hegemonic Masculinity In Contemporary Hollywood
ABSTRACT
Hyper masculinity, defined as the exaggeration of physical strength, aggression and sexuality that
essentializes masculinity (Mosher Sirkin, 1984), appears to be a prevalent feature of contemporary
science fiction films in Hollywood in the year 2000s. The films ability to influence the masses lies in
its ability to reach many people at the same time, thus transcending boundaries of time and space.
Since the American film industry is a dominant force in world television (Tudor, 2013), the portrayals
of masculinity in contemporary Hollywood sci fi films have the potential to penetrate the minds of
people around the world, across different time zones.
In this paper, we argue that contemporary Hollywood sci fi films perpetuate hegemonic ... Show more

Although The Matrix Reloaded (2003) is more dated than The Incredible Hulk (2008), it is highly

Designing A Contractor Management System For A Site Expansion
Design Deficiencies
The following report answers questions on design deficiencies. It will describe three design disasters
and examine the causes of the disaster and the impact they had on future designs. It will then discuss a
design and layout case study and the setting up of a contractor management system for a site
expansion.
Tacoma Bridge Collapse
Brief Description of the Disaster The Tacoma Narrows Bridge (aka Galloping Gertie ) was opened to
traffic on July 1, 1940 and was built to link Tacoma to the Gig Harbour. The Tacoma Bridge was built
with a light design which made it very sensitive to high winds. It lacked the ability to resist the winds
but rather swayed and vibrated with the wind direction (Britton, n.d.). Due the harmonic phenomena,
the swaying of the bridge worsened (Britton, n.d.). Four months after the opening of the bridge on
November 7, 1940, there was a 70 kilimeter per hour wind storm around the bridge area. The wind
caused the bridge to sway and vibrate turbulently from side to side, until it eventually tore the bridge
apart (Britton, n.d.).
Cause of the Disaster The cause of the incident was as result of the structure of the bridge which could
not resist the wind. Rather than resist the wind directional flow, it let the wind pass through it (Britton,
n.d.). As a result, the combined force of the winds and the internal stress in the bridge structure was far
too great for what the bridge could withstand, leading to its self destruction (Britton,

Narration is divided into two categories and classifications; those composed by men authors and those
composed by women writers. Narration by a male narrator who employs distancing strategies and
some are narrated by a female narrator using engaging strategies. Cathedral is an example used in the
academic journal Raymond Carver, Male and Female Interventions in Cathedral (Sasani, 2014).
Stories are described by a male storyteller who utilizes separating methodologies and some are
described by a female storyteller utilizing drawing in techniques, which are individually utilized by
men and women writers. Cathedral starts with a first person narrator narrating in plain and flat
statements ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Suzanne Keen in her article A Theory of Narrative Empathy, discusses the relation between the
narrator and feelings evoked. She states that the first person fiction more readily evokes feelings
responsiveness than the whole variety of third person narrative situations (2006, p. 215). From the
very beginning of Cathedral , the absence of a persuasive or convincing style of writing is very
suggestive of the presence of a male narrator through whose eyes the events are seen. The introduction

The Day That Changed My Life
The sun shined into the bedroom and my heavy, tired eyes eagerly opened. A huge smile was revealed

I slipped out of my pajamas and put the frilly dress over my head. I skipped around the room while
watching the dress twirl around in majestic circles. After minutes upon minutes of prancing around the
room, I began to hear my stomach striking up a conversation with me. The growls could be heard a
mile away. In order to tame the hungry beast inside of my belly, I turned to my mom and asked her to
make me a bowl of Nissin Ramen noodles.
When I was younger, I believed that nothing was better than eating a tub of chicken noodles for
breakfast! My mom agreed to make me the soup, yet she gave me a simple warning before she left the
room. Tyra, she began, don t get that food from the microwave. You re gonna hurt yourself. Okay? She
always asked this of me before she cooked me a hot meal. All the other times, I actually listened to her
warning. This time, the warning went through one ear and out the other. For that reason, I recklessly
agreed to do what she had told me to do. Thinking that I would actually follow through with that
command, she headed downstairs with my sister to prepare my meal.
Since my room was upstairs and directly above the kitchen, I could hear my mom pulling glass dishes

Summary Of The Art Of Failure By Malcolm Gladwell
The Art of Failure
In the essay, The Art of Failure by Malcolm Gladwell we are given the meanings of choking and
panicking while being in a stressful situation. Gladwell began to illustrate his writing by giving us
other people s story, with the stories of Jana Novotna, John F Kennedy Jr, to name a few. Gladwell
starts off by telling the story of Jana Novotna a professional volleyball player who developed stress
when she saw who her opponent was, as she was getting near her chance of winning the
championship; she lost it when choking took over her.
As Jana developed choking while playing she began thinking of her shots and lost her fluidity, her
touch as the author said in the essay in pg. 267 (first paragraph, second sentence). The author
describes Chocking as a failure, as he says to choke or to panic is the same to quit . Malcolm Gladwell
gives a description to what choking is in the world of sports. Choking is when a person under stress
begins to focus more on how they are doing or on other things that they then begin to lose track of
what they are doing.
The author also briefly puts in the story of the New York Yankees second baseman Chuck Knoblauch,
who developed sports shocking while playing in front of thousands of fans, Knoblauch had trouble
throwing the ball to first base, while stressing Knoblauch found himself reverting to explicit mode,
throwing like a Little Leaguer again , as the author said in pg. 267 (last paragraph) Choking is also

She Ain T Right Essay
The happiest, most exciting memories I hold on to are often accompanied by a country song, whether
it be playing in the background, or roaring over the speakers. Songs are written for people to feel and
relate to the emotion the songwriter and singer put behind the lyrics. Growing up having my dad be
my role model and most influential person in my life, I often find myself in things that remind me of
him or our memories, along with songs that describe a girl who is fearless and lives on the edge at
times, as if there are no consequences. For me, this is especially true listening to the song She Ain t
Right, by Lee Brice, which highlights my personality and strength I got from my dad, my sense of
fearlessness, and my constant seeking out of adventure.
Growing up, I was, and am, my dad s little sidekick. We are best friends. Naturally, being such a
daddy s girl, I picked up his habits, which include being expressive via curse words and not filtering
my thoughts before saying them out loud. She Ain t Right begins with a line She got her Daddy s
tongue and temper, sometimes her mouth could use a filter. These words could not resonate with me
any more! There have even been several times I catch myself asking, Woah, is that my voice in my
head, or Dad s? The very first time I ever heard my dad curse was in Target at the checkout. I can t

Tecumseh s Trail Of Tears
Tecumseh s biggest concerns were that his people would not live according to the Prophet which was
casting off all elements of the Euro American society. He believed that his people would turn to
alcohol, firearms, and trade goods set out by English ways, which was what the Prophet said, would
be detrimental to their ways. No matter what, Tecumseh was going to make sure the Indian way of life
would continue forever. He led a revolution of young men who thought the leadership structure
needed to be looked over again in order to survive. They fought to make sure The Indians East of the
Mississippi to keep control over their home land. Tecumseh tried to visit neighboring tribes to form an
alliance to protect the lands held by the Natives. He was successful in the way the Southern tribes
would accept the alliance, but unsuccessful with others when some refused to join the reliance, such as
the Iroquois tribe.

The Natives did not leave at the same rate and in the same group, because only 2,000 agreed to leave

of the population of Natives contracted diseases and died on their movement to their designated lands.
After the first group moved, in 1840 tens of thousands of Natives had been driven off their land in the
South and were then forced to move across the Mississippi Indian territory. Even though the federal
government had promised that the Natives could still continue to own their land, it ended up being a

Aquinas Cosmological Causes
Cosmological comes from the word cosmos which means universe is an orderly system, this definition
fits clearly through out the argument. The Cosmological coincides but also differs from the
Ontalogical argument due to the fact it is inductive, a Pasterori meaning that Aquinas uses empirical
evidence of the universe itself and questioned why it existed. Aquinas wrote the argument in his book
Summa Theologia making a clear link to Aristotles four causes; material, efficient, formal and final.
The causes needed an explanation, Aristotle concluded that this was the Prime Mover, however
Aquinas was a monk in the 15th century and took this point a step further by suggesting that the Prime
Mover was in fact the Judaeo Christian God. In a similar way to the fact Aristotle noticed there was a
change from potential to actuality in the universe, Aquinas noted that objects move and change, they

There can be no infinite chain of past movers or motions, thus there must have been a first mover

Aquinas second way was that everything has an efficient cause as nothing can be efficient in itself as it
would have to exist prior to itself which is clearly impossible. Aquinas repeats the later part of his first

(Kasparov, Garry, 2007). Citizen s do not have the option to challenge unfair governmental practices
or have information provided of governmental proceedings. This reduces the amount information
citizens see and know about within the government.

How Beautiful Are The Feet From Handel By George...
How Beautiful are the Feet from Messiah
George Frederic Handel
As Mr. Handel in his oratorio s greatly excells all other Composers I am acquainted with, So in the
famous one, called The Messiah he seems to have excell d himself. Bishop of
Elphin 1742
George Frederic Handel was born on February 23, 1685, in Halle, Brandenburg (which is now
Germany), into a wealthy, religious family. He spent 4 years travelling in Italy 1706 10, from where he
met many of the finest Italian musicians of that period, such as Alessandro Scarlatti and Arcangelo
Corelli. He moved to London in 1710, where he remained until his death on April 14 1759.
Handel was greatly influenced by the Italian style, with much of his vocal work being written in
Italian, including all of his operas, countless arias and many of his early oratorios.
However, after the release of the satirical Beggar s Opera, by John Gay, in early 1728, the popularity
of Italian Opera began to decline, because Gay s work s prevalent theme ridiculed the stereotypical
plots in Italian opera.
English audiences were also growing ever more dissatisfied with their entertainment being in Italian, a
language they did not speak, sung by singers of whose morals they disapproved. In spite of all this,
Handel continued to compose Italian operas until 1741, even co managing an Italian opera company in
London, until it went bankrupt in 1737.

Dm-Myotonica Research Paper
It is estimated that 1 in 8,000 people worldwide develop the disease known as DM Myotonica (GHR).
DM Myotonica is an inherited disease that causes an abnormal DNA expansion, which in turn creates
an over abundance of certain types of genes, and ultimately disrupts the integrity of normal muscle
function within in several parts of the body (MDA). The meaning of the name of the disease bears
roots in Greek medicine, specifically the abbreviation DM, standing for dystrophia myotonica; the
term dystrophy means bad nutrition and myotonic refers to tonic muscle spasms, or the inability of the
muscles to relax (MDA 2015). There are two types of DM myotonica which are named MMD1 and

Without a doubt, Shylock of Shakespeare s The Merchant of Venice has been a subject of much

contemporary readers of the pound of flesh story we are naturally mortified by the fact that Shylock

about the idea of the bond, the same is not necessarily true for an Elizabethan audience. This story has

The dialogue between Shylock and Antonio occurs as follows:
Shylock. This kindness I will show.
Go with me to a notary, seal me there
Your single bond, and, in a merry sport,
If you repay me not on such a day,
In such a place, such sum or sums as are
Expressed in the condition, let the forfeit
Be nominated for an equal pound
Of your fair flesh to be cut off and taken
In what part of your body pleaseth me.
Antonio. Content, in faith. I ll seal to such a bond,
And say there is much kindness in the Jew. (2.1.139 149)
It is clear in Antonio s response that he finds nothing extraordinary about these terms at all. Without
hesitation he accepts the conditions of the contract and even goes on to deem Shylock s proposal as
kind. In the Shakespearian sense of the word, kindness even means tenderness, affection, love, or
humaneness (Grebanier, 98). This should suggest to us that the idea to stake a pound of Antonio s
flesh is by no means a representation of Shylock s devilishness or cruelty. After all, according to
Shylock himself, it is only in a merry sport that they shall enter such an agreement.
In light of textual scrutiny, it is also worthwhile to re examine the court scene in which Shylock is now

Purpose: This report is based on gold mining in Australia particularly Mt Morgan. The purpose is to
decide if a gold mine is should be built near Mt Morgan (QLD) by considering the scientific impact of
the extraction, separation and refinement processes of gold. As a local farmer I will argue for No, don
t build it .
Gold, chemically known as Aurum (Au) is found throughout the earth and sea but there are natural
spots where we can recover much higher concentrations of gold. Gold is normally found associated
with quartz veins which are located in rock such as granite. There are several methods to find gold
deposits. Panning was the most common method of mining on the goldfield. Cradling is a water based
method, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Pollution is one of the key environmental impacts. Mercury is still used in gold mining in our
developing world despite safer alternatives. According to the United Nations Industrial Organization it
is estimated that 1000 tonnes of mercury is released into the air, soil and water each year. Mercury is
highly toxic therefore it can cause serious illness even death to both humans and animals. Cyanide is
extremely lethal but as it is an environmental contaminant it is not as problematic as mercury due to
the fact that is degrades fairly quickly while mercury stays around

Socialism Vs Social Work
B. To Nielsen Capitalism needs private productive property to work while socialism works to abolish
private ownership of production. Socialism is more free in the sense that is requires public ownership
and control of the means of production. Under capitalism there is private property rights. Under this
people who own the property get to choose what is done to the property but in socialism citizens at
large get to chose what happens to the property. (Social Ethics) In socialism there is no domain that is
not subject to political determination. Socialism is not a state of ownership though. (Social Ethics) At

property not private personal property. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
To Young oppression has many forms these are exploitation, marginalization, powerlessness, cultural
imperialism and systematic violence. (Social Ethics)These forms are not all oppressed to the same
extent or way but suffer in a way to develop and exercise their capacities and their needs. Exploitation
is the first type of oppression. (Social Ethics)Young says that a capitalist society removes traditional
law enforced class distinctions and promotes the belief in the legal freedom of persons. (Social
Ethics)Workers then contract with whatever employer they choose and then receive a wage from
them. Young then raises the question then why do class distinctions persist between the wealthy ?
(Social Ethics) Every Product s value is a function of the labor time needed for its production. The
labor power is the one product that in the process of being consumed produces value. (Social Ethics)
Profit, the foundation of capitalist power and wealth, comes from the difference between the value of
the labor performed and the value of the capacity to labor which the capitalist purchases. (Social

The Legacy Of Bill Gates
Bill Gates was not always successful; in fact, he began as a failure. He dropped out of Harvard and
went bankrupt in the first business he started. That being said, he did eventually create Microsoft and
become a multi billionaire. Walt Disney was fired as a newspaper editor because he lacked
imagination and had no good ideas. He later went on to create the company known as Disney. Albert
Einstein did not begin speaking until he was four and did not know how to read until he was seven. He
was expelled from his first school and was refused admittance to the Zurich Polytechnic School.
Einstein later won the Nobel Prize for physics. All of these people persisted and achieved their goals,
when others would have given up if they were in their shoes. This goes to show that anyone can
achieve anything. Back in 10th grade, I found out about a sport known as rugby. I found this sport to
be intriguing, and I wanted to learn more about it, so I started watching videos and learning. Within a
month or two, I was completely hooked. I learned about a rugby team at Union and joined it. It is a
rough sport, but at the same time fun. All of it was living up to my dreams until one night, someone
tackled me. Now this guy was massive; he was almost twice my size in both height and weight, with
the majority of it consisting of muscle. I do not remember what happened exactly, but I remember that
I had the ball and was trying to score. This other guy came from the side and

Congress called for a Constitutional Convention in 1970 in response to public cry for a new
constitution to replace the colonial 1935 Constitution. An explosion during the proclamation rally of
the senatorial slate of the opposition Liberal Party in Plaza Miranda in Quiapo, Manila on August 21,
1971, prompted Marcos to suspend the writ of habeas corpus hours after the blast, which he restored
on January 11, 1972 after public protests. Martial Law (1972 1981) Using the rising wave of
lawlessness and the threat of a Communist insurgency as justification, Marcos declared martial law on
September 21, 1972 by virtue of Proclamation No. 1081. Martial Law remained in force until 1981,
when Marcos was reelected, in the midst of accusations of electoral fraud. Marcos, ruling by decree,
curtailed press freedom and other civil liberties; closed down Congress and media establishments; and
ordered the arrest of opposition leaders and militant activists, including his staunchest critics Senator
Benigno Aquino, Jr. and Senator Jose Diokno. Initially, the declaration of martial law was well
received, given the social turmoil the Philippines was experiencing. Crime rates plunged dramatically

The Movie Out There and Advertising of Canadian Beer
In today s market of technology and visual stimulation it becomes more and more important for
advertising campaigns to stand out and be innovative, and it is this idea that drove one Canadian beer
company to do something that had never been done before. In light of waning interest, Kokanee,
owned by the Labatt Brewing Company, enlisted the help of Toronto based Grip advertising agency to
(with its entire yearly marketing budget) create something really big for there next campaign. Grip s
innovative response to this challenge was to do something completely new and create an ad in the
form of a full length feature film, which they would call: The Movie Out Here
The Movie Out There is a ninety minute Canadian indie film created as an entertaining alternative to
traditional advertising. The film follows three friends on their quest to save a business in the small
skiing town of Fernie, British Columbia by hosting a huge party. Along their journey they encounter
characters and sub plots that stem from Kokanee s long running advertising narrative of the Kokanee
Ranger. This narrative chronicles the attempts of the Ranger and the Kokanee Girls to safe guard the
Kokanee beer from the Sasquatch who continuously tries to steal it. These brand mascots are ever
present in the film, although slightly revamped. The Ranger becomes a duo of rangers consisting of
two young men: Glacier and Fresh who became the new mascots for Kokanee after the original ranger
was killed off. Their

William Shakespeare s Macbeth And Wuthering Heights

Destructive Love In Macbeth and Wuthering Heights The theme of destructive love within
relationships in Shakespeare s Macbeth and Bronte s Wuthering Heights are presented through sexism,
jealousy, and betrayal. How do women gain control in a relationship? Can men regain control in a
relationship? What makes a good relationship? What makes a bad relationship? Can people be over
ambitious? These questions are vital to understanding the complex relationships in these stories.
Women gain control in a relationship in several ways. Some relationships don t struggle for power,
and sometimes a participant simply gives the woman power freely. However, other times, the woman
abuses her partner ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In Macbeth, Macbeth becomes king. When this happens, Lady Macbeth becomes docile, where before
she was fiery, ruthless, and the driving force in the relationship. Macbeth then became dominant over
Lady Macbeth, gaining control in the relationship. Thus, in this example, control was regained. In
Wuthering Heights, Heathcliff eventually came to own Wuthering Heights, and appropriated
Thrushcross Grange. When this happened, he was angry with Catherine, because he did not know her
plan. He isolated her from the rest of the household. He became more powerful. Thus, he regained
control in the relationship.
What makes a good relationship? This question has plagued the romantically inclined for perhaps all
of time. Dr. Sarkis of Psychology Today seems to think that common goals and values are key, stating
Couples with very different interests can have healthy relationships what counts is that they share
common goals and values. (psychologytoday.com.) In this sense, the relationship in Macbeth is
considered a good relationship. Macbeth and Lady Macbeth do, after all, share a common goal: They
both want Macbeth to be king. However, they are not the only ones who share a common goal or
value.
Heathcliff and Catherine s love is an attempt to break the boundaries of self and to fuse with another
to transcend the inherent separateness of the human condition; fusion with another will by uniting two

countably infinite, exhibit a one to one correspondence between the set of positive integers and that
set.
a. The integers greater than 10.
This is countably infinite.
Starting from the first integer greater than 10, which is 11, one can infinitely count upwards since
there is no boundary on the right side of the number line for this instance.
The equation Ζ(x) = x + 11 can be used to show a one to one correspondence. x: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ...

Ζ(x): 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, ...
b. Integers divisible by 5 but not by 7.
This is countably infinite.
This is similar to part (a); we can simply list the elements of the set in order of increasing absolute
