My research covers on the topic about overpopulation in sub-Saharan Africa. Overpopulation is a condition whereby the number of the existing human population supersedes the carrying capacity of the planet. This condition is usually undesirable in nature. All over human history, birth rates have always equaled death rates maintaining a sustainable growth rate. My intention to research on overpopulation is based on how serious this issue is especially on the African continent. Overall, overpopulation poses a big problem in different fronts. It is a major cause of poverty, malnutrition and underdevelopment (Logan, 1991). This is especially so in Sub-Saharan ...

Owing to the size of the dataset involved in the data mining process, algorithms that identify patterns have to be optimized. A number of tools to make the process of decision support with data mining easier have been developed as the trend increases. ...

The internet has transformed the way individuals conduct job searches and apply for suitable openings. According to Doyle (2014), the best search techniques look beyond the application process.

Based on my research, unfortunately, there are no current job openings for Parole Officer and other relevant law enforcement placements in Waterloo, IA. However, the Cedar Rapids ...

Intelligence design and Darwinian Theory of evolution

Intelligent designs

Intelligence design is a scientific research program that constitutes professionals ranging from scientists, philosophers and the community of believers that are trying to seek the evidence-based design work. This design says that matters of existence and world origins are best explained by an intellectual undertaking and not a story that has no direction like the Darwinian Theory of natural selection (DeWolf et al., 2007).When one studies the components of a given measure, one can outline the issues of law, chances in life and conditions found in intelligence design. It is only through intelligence that scientists can ...

The Scientific Revolution and Enlightenment are best understood as conflicts between faith and reason. This statement is accurate because this time period began the separation of church and state and opened the floodgates for science to begin to become more important in society in the future. While it took some time for science and religion to completely separate, and it did not happen until much later, the Scientific Revolution and the Enlightenment were extremely important because they created the conflict in the first place. While this time did not completely separate reason and faith, it began to encourage people ...

Personal Essay

I had always been fascinated by the skills possessed by the great public speakers. It was a pleasure to witness the power of expression displayed by the orators. I always thought that, to get the recognition and popularity, oratory is the best method. Every time I was swayed by any eloquent speaker, the desire to imitate the performance, similar to one that witnessed, arose. However, there was a big problem that always held me back from taking the initiative. It was the fear of being mocked in the event of performance going haywire. Whenever I thought of addressing a ...

Introduction

When it comes to story-telling, many people emphasize the story part, instead of the telling one. Nevertheless, the manner in which a story is told can be very influential in its reception. In fact, many people would say that the story itself changes depending on the discourse that presents it. This came to the limelight in the end of the nineteenth century with the Modernist current. Authors such as James Joyce and Virginia Woolf deliberately modified the way that stories were told. They utilized many techniques that allowed them greater range of expression, many of which were not even ...

Origination of the syphilis concept

How the modern concept of Syphilis originated My experiences with the syphilis concept reflectingon reading chapters one and two along with my own perceptions gained from previous knowledge, is that it embodies a geographic origin as well as scientific.

Introduction

It is remarkable how technology has advanced over the years. Since the industrial revolution that started in Europe in the early 19th century, technology has changed dramatically in almost all fields of human endeavor that it would be quite impossible to enumerate. Despite several drawbacks, technology is generally perceived as beneficial. Some people, for instance, may criticize that computers and the internet make people lazy or stupid, but ironically, the same people who criticize technology are also the ones that are utilizing it. But despite mainstream society’s fondness of technology, all these technological advancements today does not seem ...

The issue of choosing a profession arises at school, when a decision must be made about the faculty a person is going to study at. Undoubtedly, the choice is not easy as it defines one’s future life. In my opinion, school time is too early to make such an important decision, since not everybody sticks to their childhood dreams of becoming a doctor, a vet, a teacher, etc. Thus, they are forced to make a choice, sometime a blind one. Anyway, this is how it is done according to the current education system and we have to follow ...

The voyage of Christopher Columbus across the Atlantic to discover the Americas ‘the new world’ is perhaps among the most important topics in history. This is because it hugely impacted on international markets and set the platform for the international slave trade that was to follow thereafter. Upon landing in the Americas, Christopher Columbus and his crew of fellow Europeans came into contact with the original inhabitants of the Americas. In South America, the Europeans encountered communities such as the Aztec while in the Caribbean were the Arawak people (Hofman & Duijvenbode, 2011). The Europeans popularly referred to them as ...

Sometimes reality is not an effective medium by which to view the world. In such instances the human eye often looks beyond what is seen in order to reveal what is hidden in plain view, behind the known and mundane aspects that the world has to offer. In those moments it becomes obvious that no matter how mundane a thing is, no matter how commonplace it might seem, there is always something to be seen in the breaths between one click of the camera to the next.

Plain View Searches

Under the operation of the Fourth Amendment, police interactions with individuals is limited to three forms; one, “intrusions [into] a person’s privacy,” arrests and incarcerations, and confiscation of property. If the activities do not fall within the ambit of a “warrantless search,” these must then be accompanied by the acquisition of warrants.

The plain view canon will operate in cases when persons have “no reasonable expectation of privacy” when the officers ...

Entomology is the investigation of bugs, which are those creatures that have an exoskeleton, 6 legs, 3 body portions, 1 sets of radio wire, and 1 sets of compound eyes.

Scientific entomologists regularly manage non-creepy crawly arthropods, for example, arachnids, bugs, and ticks. Thusly, the essential meaning of "criminological entomology" amplifies past "entomology." Inside of the scientific sciences, legal entomologists can set up a part of the after death interim (which is ...

Discovery of Americas and its Impact on Commerce, Navigation, and Industrialization

Introduction The European exploration efforts and the subsequent discovery of the Americans was in the simplest terms, a capitalistic venture. Of course, it was accidental, but its primary goal had been to find a new sea route to the orient. The European desire to make more profits by cutting out the Arabs and Turkish nations from the trade is typical of any capitalistic venture. In addition, the idealistic desire to expand the horizons of the European reach coupled with the optimistic search for a completely new way of reaching the Orient was demonstrated in the efforts of Columbus and ...

There are two ways in which a person might find themselves thrust into a great tradition of thought and philosophy – one, by accepting the basic ideas or propositions, and the two, by refuting them and breaking away. Admittedly, traditions that break away successfully amount to new traditions in and of themselves, but their roots are still in the past and this fact should not easily be forgotten. This description of breaks and recreation aptly describes the relationship between the Aristotelian tradition and Galileo Galilei’s scientific breakthroughs in the seventeenth century. This paper will attempt to trace the scientific ...

For a long time, the diamond industry had been characterized by the monopoly power of De Beers.
