The transport industry, especially the trucking sector, has experienced and would continue to experience changes given the current economic climate. Economic uncertainty has brought about waves of speculation that have ultimately led to the drastic rise in fuel prices. The trucking industry has felt the direct effects of the ever-changing fuel market much more than any other industry in the United States (EPA, 2014). The rising fuel price has led to key industry players to devise ways of combating the problem. In coming up with ways of cutting the operational costs, the environment should also be put into consideration. ...

Electronic Etiquette:

I do feel in many cases that people are not courteous while using cell phones or text messaging. Most of the people I know, or the people I see, continue using their cell phones for texting or apps while they are engaging in conversations with another person. Not only is this distracting, but also it is rude. If a person is speaking, it is common courtesy to give undivided attention to that person. I see many people go through cashier lines while chatting loudly on their phones, which is very rude to the cashier, as well as everybody within listening ...

Dear Senator,
As your voting constituent, I am writing to you regarding the House Bill 4975 signed by Governor Deval Patrick on July 2, 2010 that prohibits text messaging and using a cellular phone while operating a motor vehicle.

Question 1

Do women live longer than men?
The dependent variable is death. The life span of individuals depends on several factors. As years go by the age of an individual goes up and death comes nearer. The independent variable is gender.

The gender of an individual is fixed and does not change with age.

The kind of data needed to answer this question is ratio comparing the age at which most men die to that at which most women die. This kind of information can be obtained by visiting hospitals and inquiring the records of patients who die in a year (National Institutes of Health 2000). It can also be obtained by interviewing members ...

Perceptual process

Perceptual process is a sequence of steps that begins with the atmosphere and leads to an individual’s perception of a stimulus and an action in response to the stimulus. It is a continuous process but does not need one to spend a great deal of his or her time thinking about the actual process that happens when one perceives the many stimuli that surrounds one at a particular period (Rock, 2007). Thus in my case, it can be seen that I am currently unable to drive on any interstate as I usually undergo panic attacks when I drive on it. The option that ...

The ethical issue of the driver case can be classified under organizational relationships. This is because the case of the driver will affect the way the company is viewed externally.

Dear Senator

I am writing this letter to express my opinion on the Massachusetts House Bill 4975. I highly support this bill. The bill signed by Governor Deval Patrick helps keeps roads safe. According to Freidman (2007), accidents on roads increase each day. Natural disasters cause the accidents; however, road users and drivers cause most of these accidents. Massachusetts Bill 4975 prevents careless drivers from causing harm to the road users. The bill attempts to prevent drivers from causing accidents by banning the usage of cell phones while driving. I confirmed that drivers get distracted when they use their mobile phones. ...

Reasonable Thinking

DQ1: Reasonable or logical thinking is a meticulous way of thinking which is sensible and based on excellent judgement. However, sometimes people’s reasonable thinking goes off track when they think of irrelevant solutions to the right questions or circumstances. For instance, reasonable thinking can go off track when one tries to confirm a theory that has nothing to do with the subject at hand. Emotions and their poor managements cause reasonable thinking to completely go off track. Thinking of answers to a question without its proper understanding propels logical thinking off track.
DQ2: Hasty generalization is the situation whereby an ...

Problem Solving in Six Steps

Introduction to Developing Solution in Six Steps

My family used to own a farm that took up about 120 acres in northeastern Texas. The nearest town was a sleepy hamlet called Ector, that had about 800 people in it when I was a kid; the town has grown smaller since then. Bonham was further down the road, the seat of Fannin County. When I was a kid, you could go into Bonham to bowl or watch a movie, or even shop at Wal-Mart. But we didn’t do any of those things when I was a kid, and we went down to the farm. Instead, we stayed there – first in the old, ...

Marijuana legalization and/or use is a controversial topic. While it is already legal in some places, notably Amsterdam, and measures are being introduced in some parts of the United States to gradually liberalize its acceptance and use (medical marijuana is legal in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and other states, for example), it is still a long way from general public acceptance. In this paper, I will interview three different people about their opinions on marijuana. The names of the people interviewed have been changed to protect their identities, as this topic is fairly controversial and the opinions expressed were often quite candid.

Introduction

Literary critical theory is a complicated process - there are many different ways from which one can look at a story. The question remains, however, whether or not these readings are valid. Is the process of literary criticism a means of mental gymnastics, where theorists can force a reading into a text like a child pushing a square peg in a round hole? Looking at the various theorists who make up the most prominently observed members of the literary critical canon, it becomes clear that the act of reading itself is an interactive one, with the reader bringing just as much into the experience of reading as ...

Vince Gilligan’s crime/family drama Breaking Bad (2008-2013) is often cited as one of the greatest television shows ever made, one of the best examples of the era of prestige cable drama.

Perhaps one of the most presentational and ambitious episodes of the series is the tenth episode of season three, “Fly,” directed by Rian Johnson. A classic ...

There are various forms of utilitarianism, but all have similar fundamental tenets. It is critical to note that utilitarianism focuses on the consequences of the actions other than the character traits of the actor. Classical utilitarianism entails three major propositions.
First, Mill and Bentham identified "good" with pleasure. In this regard, the intrinsic good is pleasure while inherent wrong is suffering. The nature of hedonism proposes that an action would be ethical if it yields pleasure as opposed to suffering. Although satisfaction is important, it cannot alone be sufficient to make logical decisions. The latter proposition leads to the ...

An adaptive change refers to a complete shift in the paradigm of something. When instituting this change, the leader undergoes several challenges and has to apply a variety of strategies to stay alive. Hence, with all the difficulty encountered in initiating the change, a question arises on why a leader should even bother to initiate this change.

The driving force for many criminal justice leaders in implementing change is the need to add meaningfulness to life. This essay looks at the need to connect with ...

In his essay on Canada’s changing national development trajectory, Hutton has discussed the nation’s economic transition to a ‘post-staples’ era. He makes it very clear that his notion and hypothesis of the changing phase after that of ‘mature staples’ is not absolute. Instead, it is much as the theory on society post-industrialization as proposed by Daniel Bell; they both observe and analyze changes in the economy of the nation, owing to social, political, cultural and/or spatial developments. And in this particular case, Hutton’s essay focuses primarily on the contribution of staples towards a developing Canadian economy. Hutton describes ...

The word “Black” carries more meaning and weight than one would assume. In the world of usual culture and film, this is even more so as one considers the depiction of ‘black’ and the concepts associated with the term.

The blowing out of the candles represents, for both of them, the chance to escape the suffocating nature of their life in their apartment with their family and to grow as people. This act being the final action of the play is significant, as it not only represents just how badly ...
