Felicia sat on the steps of her apartment building, bouncing a small yellow ball. It was dark out, only the dim light from the hallway behind her lighted the street. The sounds of sirens blared in the distance. A car rambled by and the thump of the loud bass vibrated through the cement of the sidewalk to where she sat. The vibration was almost soothing; she watched the car run a red light almost wistfully. It was late at night; it must be nice to somewhere to go.
She happily bounced the ball a few more times before some mischievous urge ...

Assignment 2.

Concerning the circle of Hell I would send him to, as Dante, it might have been the second circle, meaning the one responsible for lust and where sinners were hunted by horrible storm. On the other hand, I think it would be too mild because Dante's perception of lust is more connected with love and obsession with one's beloved one, rather than an act of dominance and possession of one' will and freedom. So, I would place him in the Seventh circle for violence because he committed violence against those women he raped. I would place him in the ...

In the burning afternoon summer air, YuKwon ran up the back stairs inside the building, his pants sticking to his drenched legs. Sweat rivered down his forehead into his eyes and steam rose from his sweltering skin, but he ignored all physical distractions, focused only on his mission. His breath even in spite of his exertion, YuKwon removed a sniper rifle from his silver metal case, loading it as he knelt at a window, being careful to remain invisible to anyone outside. His target this time was the wealthy and arrogant Choi Minhyuk, an infamous loan shark. From his window on ...

Nobody can really tell what the future has in store for us. But I am almost a hundred percent sure that everybody wants to know what really lies in the future. In this paper, I will try to give my speculations about the future in terms of energy use, supply and demand. I might also try to link them with other factors such as the growing population or the latest types of energy-creating technology that will become available.

It started with the bullfighting. I had never been a fan of the sport itself; indeed, I had never really considered it; but there I was, in Valencia, watching the matadors wave their flags at the heads of the bulls. I had never seen anything like it before, and it was an image that will be seared into my brain as demonstrative of my time in Spain for the rest of my life.
There is so much to say about bullfighting. There is a rich history of bullfighting in Spain and Portugal, but everyone seems to have an opinion about ...

Starting out from downtown and heading towards the University District provides a sampling of much of what Seattle’s landscape has to offer. Initially, the landscape is almost entirely constructed of human imprints. There are tall and taller office buildings that cut off almost any view of the horizon; literally a concrete jungle. However, as one walks to the higher numbered streets such as Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Avenues; the landscape has a dramatic change. Through the space between the buildings, on one side, you can see the Puget Sound and the islands, and mountains the face the city ...

Ever since I started dreaming about becoming an accounting professional, I had been searching for a proper university of international repute. Santa Clara University started haunting me since one evening when my mom narrated over coffee about the experience of her friend’s daughter in the famed business school in Silicon Valley. What excited me about Santa Clara University was the committed professors who paid attention to individual students since I believed in business schools students would not get individual attention as they used to get in high schools. I began to research about the university through the internet ...

Introduction
Getting nominated for the “Hall of Fame” is a great recognition and honor for any American. The origin of its conception has great relevance in the context of equality, justice, freedom, and respect for human values. It is in the 1890s, that the Rev. Henry MacCracken, president of New York State University, took it upon himself to build a Hall of Fame. It was the brainchild of this visionary who had concerns for prostitution, democracy and the Roman Empire that culminated in a "Parnassus" - a centre of importance.

Background Information on the Hall of Fame

The Hall of Fame, Mac Cracken reasoned, was intended to attract prospective ...

My name is Archibald Jones. Throughout my lifetime I lived through a ton of advancements in industrial production. I’ve ever heard some people call it a revolution – an industrial revolution. I’m not sure I’d go that far, but from when I first moved into my farm and to where I am today, I can tell you, things have changed a ton.
I never got along that well with my father, so when I got word that my grandfather had passed away and that I’d be able to take over his plot of land out in ...

SMEs are also adopting and implementing the business coalitions in their operations just like their large corporation counterparts. The goal of business networks is to enhance competitive advantage and draw closer ...

1. Marie de France’s “Bisclavret” is far more understated in its description of the werewolf than similar imagery in modern novels. One element of modern writing is an increased reliance on imagery rather than suggestion, and while the important element of “Bisclavret” is the theme rather than description, in modern works we tend to get both – consider the case of Professor Lupin from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. The focus in “Bisclavret” is on the treachery of the wife and the knight, and the rectitude of the former baron. The narration in ...

Riots that broke out in Hong Kong, set a difficult choice before the Communist Party of China.

Has anyone ever noticed a lot of people around that don’t really register on the radar? They aren’t invisible, not exactly. But on the other hand they are more like ghosts than the real people in the city. When real people are rushing around to work sometimes there are flickers in and out of the crowds on the sidewalk. Or grayish shadows moving along the edges of the building even on a sunny day. Since there is no such thing as ghosts they must be people. Right? Probably people who are like that can do a lot of things real ...

A shadow walks up the stairs of a dark and cold brick building. The walls reek of mold, the stairs creak with each step, and the mice are hiding from the rats. The shadow of a man reaches the third floor, and knocks on the only door in the darkest corner.

1) What were the Milgram Experiments and what did they demonstrate from their results?
The Milgram experiment was done to make out the time a person can take an order prior to them querying that order. With an objective anchored in the chase of profit, Enron workers were continually asked to break laws or execute acts that may perhaps be regarded as depraved. A small number of Enron workers ever came onward to report the dishonesty. The aspect that unavoidably led to individuals stepping forward was a "sinking ship" sentiment, resultant in a few Enron management officers selling their shares whereas ...
