Slavery was a part of the American culture for almost a whole decade (1776-1865), and during that time, many people had to suffer inhumanly for the only solid reason of being a bit different from someone else. There is no way of wiping the past from the memories of those who have struggled, which means that the terror of slavery will always be a part of the human history. As the experience shows, world history is far from being pretty. It has presented its evils so many times that merely counting them would take ages. Every major society, every ...

In order to ensure peace and prosperity of a country, most governments have employed the use of stringent rules and regulations to govern people. However, some people stray away from the common perception of government and embrace anarchy. Anarchy is basically opposite of what the government stands for, anarchism is a political ideology (Carter, 1971) that holds the state undesirable and harmful while advocating for stateless institutions. The view of anarchists stray away from the commons masses and more often they tend to go extreme and cause social disturbance and unrest (Gage, 2009)as was the case of the ...

First Thessalonians is Paul’s first letter to the church at Thessalonica which he himself founded. This letter was written while Paul was ministering to the church at Corinth in the accompaniment of Timothy and Silas (1 Thessalonians 1:1). It is not clear about exactly how long Paul spent with the Thessalonians before leaving, but scholarly parlances place this period at around three weeks or three months, subject to different scholars (BTM). Being that Paul had received a number of offerings from the church at Philippi serves as enough evidence for having spent three months at Thessalonica (Philippians 4:16). ...

My friend (I interviewed) works at a renowned call center in Manhattan. He told me that a job at the call centre is not very easy as people generally think about it.

Handling all kinds of people and attending dozens of calls in a shift requires good energy and patience. My friend has to travel back and forth a lot in a cab, and that also normally adds to his stress.

The Lord of the flies written by William Golding and Inferno by Dante Alighieri are allegorical books that expound common themes and similitude in the usage of styles. In particular, the common theme that resonates in these two books is the nature of man and the evil that men harbor in their hearts. In essence, the two novels delve to answer the question as to who is the real enemy of humankind. Though the two authors dexterously use different stylistic devices to answer the question, the convergence is that man himself is the worst enemy to each other. According ...

My Friend

I have a friend back in my homeland who I talk to, almost every week, through Facebook Chat. She is my childhood friend. We grew up in the same street.

Hillary and Allen (2016) observe that all sectors and organization will have to review the risks and opportunities that will emanate from Brexit. Unfortunately, project managers, like everyone else, have limited information that would help them to assess the risks and opportunities associated with the Brexit. Notwithstanding the lack ...

In this paper, we will explore the psychological impacts of two human-made disasters. One that happened during the First World War, and the other one is a recent terrorist attack in Paris, in 2015. The Lusitania Disaster was an attack from the German army to a British ship liner coming from New York to Liverpool, UK. The terrorist attack in Paris however was not a war attack, so people were not expecting anything as such. However, it can be argued that we are on a war today, that begun by several attacks of radical Islamic groups against the West. ...

Fear messages have been of importance within the nursing profession over the years and were even responsible for the reduction of the use of substance abuse in communities. Substances abuse is discouraged in many communities owing to their negative effects on the general health of an individual (DiBello, Neighbors, & Ammar, 2015). It is because of these adverse consequences that the nursing and health sector, in general, decided to come up with creative ideas to curb the menace. One of the commonly used strategies in this field is the formulation of fear messages to scare away the drug users from ...

Payment methods and technologies have shifted a great deal over the years. Gone are the days where cash and check transactions make up the bulk of the give and take that occurs when people engage in commerce, travel and otherwise spend their money. Credit and debit cards have ruled the roost for a while but some new contenders are starting to emerge. The first major alternative to the conventional credit cards and other more traditional methods was PayPal (PayPal, 2017). However, smartphone-enabled technologies such as Apple Pay, Samsung Pay and Android Pay are starting to dominate the commerce and ...

This response addresses a personal past shared meaning experience and my learning outcomes from the event. I grew up with a best friend who was “of colour.” I did not see her as being different because my parents taught me from before I can remember that “people are all the same.” I believed just because our skin, hair and eyes were different, it did not matter because for me that is what “the same” meant. Of course, that is until my friend went with our family to a family reunion. When meeting my best friend, I watched as “my ...

Abstract

A nurse is likely to face different worldviews constantly in their line of work. Such worldviews are often shaped by different religious and cultural beliefs. The question of euthanasia for patients with terminal illnesses lends itself to different worldviews and interpretations. George’s condition of ALS has forced him to consider euthanasia. From, a Christian standpoint, this choice is wrong because only God the Creator has the authority over life and death. Also, Buddhism does not favor euthanasia. The question of the causes of sickness also lends itself to religious interpretation. Christian interpretations are varied. One view is that ...

Women and Gender Studies

In advertisement one for CoverGirl, it is made clear women should make an effort to get full, healthy looking eyelashes via CoverGirl products in order to be noticed by a man, as well as to feel, “more womanly.” It perpetuates a few stereotypes toward women, including the classic idea that women should wear makeup to be noticed, as well as the idea that women must wear makeup to achieve femininity. Women who do not want to wear makeup or do not feel comfortable wearing makeup may be negatively impacted by this advertisement. A Toys R Us advertisement may not ...

I want to learn how to manage my stress. As well as other people, I experience stressful situations every day, and I notice that inability to manage the received stress disturbs my sleep and causes neurosis: I constantly feel anxiety and often experience excessive sweat, trembling of my hands, and inability to sit motionlessly for more than 2-3 minutes. I hope that the ability to manage my stress will reduce its negative impact on my nervous system and release me from these symptoms. I think that at the moment, my perception and reaction to stressful situations are habitual, and ...

The Christian Bible and Islamic Quran chare a surprising number of similar themes and ideas as a result of their shared religious heritage and birthplaces; an example of this is found in the Bible’s “Sermon on the Mount” parable from the Mathew Gospel and the Quran’s “Lord of Mercy”. It is important to note that the Lord of Mercy referenced by the Koran can include a number of passages, as Allah is directly references as the Lord of Mercy many times; unless specified otherwise, this report will refer primarily to the opening of the Koran for simplicity. ...

Introduction

Every day we learn about new facts of violence around the world. The statistics show the high frequency of murder occurrence based on ill-treatment, and in everyday life we often become witnesses of angry accusations or shouting. Harmful behavior of another human is always perceived as evil from the point of philosophical and moral aspects. Yet history is full of examples of aggressive behavior not only of individuals but also of entire nations. Why do people tend to deliberately cause suffering to another? Why are there conflicts, accompanied by outbursts of anger and evil cries? These questions do not ...

History

Abstract Karl Marx observed the large gap between workers’ and serfs’ quality of life compared to the aristocrats running European countries from France to Russia. He theorized that viewing workers as commodities necessary to produce profits was causing deep angry feelings of alienation in the working class. The pamphlet written by Marx and Engel called The Communist Manifesto (1849). Marx’s work grew from Hegel’s theories about alienation in order to apply to society in the decade of the 1840s (Panich & Leys, 1998). Contemporary authors have determined that the feelings of alienation in 1848 were similar to what ...

The purpose of this discussion is to look at the reasons why Invisible Man has been banned and is currently banned in certain places around the world. There are very important sociocultural contexts for the banning of books (Callahan 23-27). Ellison’s landmark work has been put on the list of TIME’s 100 best English language novels of the twentieth century multiple times, as well as making it onto numerous lists of books that “everyone should read before [they] die,” although its presence on these lists is not as impressive as its constant inclusion onto lists published by ...

Question One

The case study in this situation and for this question shows a store manager that is obviously acting in an improper way. Indeed, sales are down at one of the stores and the store manager has reacted to this, at least in part, by berating and yelling at people that do not have the leverage or latitude to raise sales on their own. Indeed, it is conceded as part of the run-up to this question that the marketing and other high-level operations of the firm are what really get people into the store. Instead of going about things the ...

Abstract

The Hurricane Katrina is considered the most devastating storm in the United States due to its magnitude of destruction and the casualties involved.

Fairy tales and folklores are nothing but the reflections of the society. Authors and artists depict the world through their lens to highlight social elements. The Company of Wolves by Angela Carter is a fairy tale built on the theme of the Little Red Riding Hood. In a very subtle way it depicts the patriarchal structure of the society and what it means to be a liberated woman. In an interesting way she has shown what a feminist means, as it brings harmony and order into an otherwise sexist and chaotic society. Carter’s Company of Wolves might not ...

Reaction to Cartoons

I see that Thurber’s cartoons are dry and it takes a certain sort of humor to immediately appreciate them. I think that after one reads them and studies them briefly, they can still be appreciated regardless of any humor, primarily because many of them are universal in their own way. Thurber, known for showing men who overstep their boundaries in one way or another, and women who are not going to put up with it, managed to clue into this vein with the American public time and time again. One panel shows an obviously drunk man who has ...

Abstract

The growing demand for the competitive specialists justifies the particular attention and concern to the Malaysian students’ reading comprehension skills from the Malaysian authorities. The introduction of teaching the Malaysian core school subjects in the English language (Yassin et al., 2009) provided the continual attempts and experiments to define the most efficient way to decrease achievement gaps in the reading of Malaysian pupils.

Introduction Saudi Arabia has one of the most repressive media regulations in the world with a score of 83/100 in the most recent survey by the Freedom House, where 0 represents the best score while 100 represents the worst score.

Examination of Performance Review Conflict

Examination of Performance Review Conflict Performance review conflict can create serious problems in the public sector. In reviewing an employee’s performance, the supervisor considers self-reported performance assessment, his/her observations of an employee’s work, and feedback from other supervisors and peers who had the opportunity to oversee or observe the work of the employee. However, ratings for each criterion depends, in part, on the subjective interpretation of the supervisor. Rater bias and favoritism based on gender, race, age, physical appearance or attractiveness, personality, and personal relations or interests may influence supervisor ratings. Evaluation results become the basis of ...

For example, people who know their emotions and understand the reason behind their anger and deal with the situation without being angry and violating the norms ...

Media Consumption and Materialism/Consumerism

Globally, consumption and materialism have become a fundamental component of the prevailing culture. Humans consume a myriad of products and resources that extend beyond their basic necessities to include technological innovations and luxuries aimed at improving efficiency and quality of life. Throughout history, consumption beyond basic needs has served as a method of boosting human happiness. Hence, excessive consumption does not necessarily pose harm to human life (Shah). Increasingly, however, important issues regarding media consumption and materialism have emerged in recent decades. As such, this study examines the neuroscience of human emotions, the use of recreational substances, and the ...

Paul Laurence Dunbar was one of the first influential poets in the movement that would become the Harlem Renaissance. Older than some of his peers within that group, he published his first poems in 1889, in the Dayton Herald, also serving as class president and class poet despite being the only black student in his grade level. He initially wanted to become an attorney, but his mother did not have enough money to send him off to university, so he started looking for work in his downtown, Dayton, Ohio, but found that there were few openings for black applicants. ...

The vast majority of Jonathan Swift’s “A Modest Proposal” reads like a scientific treatise, packed with facts and figures as it seems that Swift has assembled a persuasive case for actually raising the children of Irish poor families in the same philosophical manner that farmers raised sheep, cattle and pigs for slaughter, even going into the various cuts of meat that would be available. However, as the reader nears the end of this treatise, he descends into a chiding tone that asks the reader to conduct some internal self-questioning to determine his position on the issue. Swift, writing ...

Introduction

In his seminal work, A History of the Nine Principles of Policing, Robert Peel of the London Metropolitan Police (LMP) mentioned two important principles of policing. First, “no quality is more indispensable to a policeman than a perfect command of temper; a quiet, determined manner has more effect than violent action.” Second, “The securing and training of proper persons is at the root of efficiency.” This review will apply these principles in the context of law enforcer management and training.
