Essays on Cows

In simple words, the tragedy of commons could be described as individuals working for self-interest and ignoring the needs of society. For example, there is a meadow that is utilized by the farmers of the countryside. The meadow can serve 20 cows in any season. If a farmer increases his number of cows from 2 to 10, this will put negative effect on other 18 cows as their resources will be over utilized. The farmer being aware of this situation does not think about the well being of all the farmers or cows, but only protects his personal interest. After some ...

Film studies

Food Inc. is an insightful film about the American food industry and how this food is produced for the consumers. American food is produced by very large multinational companies in ways that are unconventional to say the least. The exact mechanics behind the production of this food is deliberately kept from the public perhaps in an attempt to avoid public protest that would result from knowledge of the truth. Contrary to the norm, the American food system has shifted from a farm base to a production line base. This means that the normal ways of growing food on farms have been ...

A cow has always been viewed as a sacred animal in the Hindu culture. While other animals are confined and used for other commercial purposes, cows are left to roam freely in India without the threat of being harmed. Every day, they are worshiped and even fed with human food. Unlike elephants, monkeys and the likes that feature as idols in Hindu worship, the image of a cow has never been curved or used in temples as an idol (Brown, 1957, p. 87). However, the physical cow has always been considered as a god that is respected by all Hindus. As a reflection ...

The film is a great expose about the story behind the supermarket foods. It educates the viewers about the misconception and sometimes deception being employed by the supermarket giants. It tells the story of the very few big retailers that controlled the supermarket business and the control they have at the farmers and price. Aside from the animal welfare issues that are raised by the film, labor practices are also questionable because the workers’ right and safety are also put in danger. Most chicken farms are being subsidized by giant food companies. These farmhouses chickens in a tightly cramped space ...

Our goal was to give a retrospective overview of methods and results from the year 2000 until 2008 at Rikshospital, as well as the prospective five year follow-up of a biological valve made from bovine pericardium. Follow up included clinical examination with ECG, echocardiography, spirometry, treadmill testing, echocardiography ...

Breed-specific legislation is the restriction of and legislation regarding certain breeds of dog, often dogs that are considered violent, dangerous, or erratic in their behaviors (Collier, 2006). Proponents of breed-specific legislation point out that there are certain types of dogs that are most frequently used in dogfighting rings, and that these dogs are more likely to be dangerous to the general public. However, research has shown repeatedly that this is not the case; breed-specific legislation and controls on the breeding of dogs (excluding dog-wild canine hybrids)is nothing more than a reactionary response to perceived social ills that have little ...

In the year 2005, a total of 32.49 million cows were slaughtered and the products supplied for consumption to the United States residents.

In addition, in the daily milk-producing cows, genetically modified hormones were injected to enhance an increase in the level of milk production (King 22). These measures meant that there could be an increase in the profit in this industry of beef and dairy products production. However, what does this mean to the children who ...

The cow became one of the idols in Africa. Africans generally learned to appreciate and adore the cow. The Dinka, in a show of their love for the cow, have designed four hundred different names used to refer to the cow. The Maasai of Kenya are exceptions to idolizing the cow and their love for the cow. This has led them to believing that the cow was given to them by the gods, and on that basis they are true and dear to the cow. It is considered to them a blessing to herd and keep more herds of cattle as ...

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 ...

Georgia O'Keeffe is one of the most influential and well-known artists in modern American history.

Her unique and vivid style is exemplified in the ...

Indian Boarding Schools

After the effective defeat of the Indians and their subjugation in the name of manifest destiny, American reformers (including The Friends of the Indian) sought to “Americanize” Native Americans by refocusing land ownership through allotment of private property as opposed to attributing lands to tribes. Furthermore, boarding schools were created that would re-educate Native Americans in the ways of white, Christian, American life, leading them to abandon their traditional Indian identity in favor of becoming fully assimilated into the US citizenry. Despite these ostensibly good intentions, however, there were several critics of these boarding schools, who would argue ...

Beyond the myth is a film about a certain breed of dogs commonly reared in the United States. The dogs from this particular breed of dogs are referred to as “pit bulls”.

The amino acid is a hydrophobic and aromatic essential amino acid. The compound is relatively non-reactive because of the benzene ring in its structure. Since it is nonpolar, the amino acid does not dissolve in water. Due to its hydrophobic nature, the amino acid is buried in the hydrophobic core of protein structures. However, the aromatic side chain in the structure of the amino acid affects protein structure by staking with the aromatic side chains of other amino acids. The side chain of the amino acid is relatively non-reactive and as such is not often involved in the functions of ...

In archeology, DNA analysis has been used as an investigatory tool since it became available to scientists. DNA analysis, which is a constantly developing and expanding field, has allowed archaeologists to precisely and decisively obtain results that solve archaeological, historical, and evolutionary questions. Unfortunately, the methods for using ancient DNA analysis tend to destroy the samples from which the DNA is extracted. The results can easily be affected by external contamination as well, which requires the research to be conducted within specialized laboratories by trained laboratory personnel (Arandjelovic, Guschanski, Schubert, Harris, Thalmann, Siedel, & Vigilant, 2009). DNA analysis has been ...

Indian/Native American Boarding Schools

Native Americans were marginalized and suppressed by the US government in the 19th century. Given that the Native Americans were the minority in the country and acted as a threat to the state, they were forced into reservations where they could be easily monitored by the US government (Adams 67). Though the Native Americans were oppressed in their livelihood, some chose to continue embracing their culture and not that of the foreigner. In the late 19th century, the Native American youth were forced into boarding schools where they had to adapt to the European way of life (Hirschfelder 28). This ...

Introduction

The present territorial domains of the United States (US) were a result of expansionism that came in the years that followed its independence in 1776. Prior to expansion, much of the US included only the 13 original states and territories that spanned the Midwest. A series of colonial trysts with Spain over its territories has led to the gradual westward expansion of the US towards the Pacific Ocean. White American settlers have since mingled with Hispanic and Asian populations, both of which have settled through colonization and waves of immigration. The rise in mining activities, particularly triggered by the Gold ...

The government has found a solution for the beef supply crisis. The government of Indonesia is considering buying land in Australia in which it will raise beef cattle and export them into their country.
