The significance of environmental enforcement, whether civil or criminal, cannot be overemphasized. For, as the statement by the experienced environmental enforcement official shows, without such enforcement, most animal and plant species would become non-existent due to extinction. The enforcement of environmental laws as done by such agencies as the Environmental Protection Agency is important in not only protecting the environment from wanton destruction or pollution but also helps in conserving and preserving the environment. The criminal and civil enforcement of environmental laws, policies, and regulations also preserve flora and fauna species by ensuring strict compliance by governments, individuals, and ...

“If it has ‘science’ in its name, it ain’t (Minnick).” Those words were said to this writer by the smartest person he ever knew personally, a man with PhDs in Mathematics and Physics, a true scientist. He went on to explain that science, if it is science, can be reduced to mathematics and then can predict. “Science can generate electricity or flatten cities,” he said. The problem, of course, is that whenever one deals with the “soft sciences,” political science or economics (the dismal science) or sociology or history or any of the disciplines that are housed in ...

Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman were both influential poets of their times, and they have each retained their popularity over the years since. Both poets often tackle the theme of spirituality, but their views differ; Dickinson approaches the topic from the position of the afterlife, whereas Whitman contemplates spirituality from the perspective of life on earth. The two poets differ in that Dickinson often writes from the perspective of someone who has already died, whereas Whitman uses speakers who are still alive on earth. The speaker of Dickinson’s “Because I Could Not Stop for Death” is a ghost, ...

Describe air quality conditions in the US before steep regulations were imposed.

The United States has experienced the worst air quality conditions during the 1940s and 1950s as an effect of the progressing industrialization and urbanization. Another main reason is that the United States has no national regulation and policy towards hazardous gas emission and air pollution during these periods of time. During the 1940s and 1950s, the United States have experienced deadly photochemical smog on major cities including Los Angeles and Donora(Williams, 2013). In addition, the ozone levels in the lower layers of the atmosphere exceed its limit and become dangerous to people as well as the environment. During ...

Introduction: The Historical Backdrop

The Battle of Normandy, that was codenamed Operation Overlord, primarily involved the landing of American and British troops along with their western allies, who landed on the Normandy coast on June 6, 1944 during World War II .

Despite the lack of landing harbors at Normandy that would complicate the docking of the vessels upon their arrival at ...

In this paper I chose to write on the song “Fast Car” by Tracy Chapman. I ultimately chose this song because I had a three-way tie going between it and “Hurt” the Johnny Cash version and Jeff Buckley’s version of “Hallelujah”. As much as I love “Hurt” I felt that it may be a bit too dark for this assignment. I chose not to do “Hallelujah” because this is only a three-page paper and I tend to get obsessed when I analyze that song. So I am looking at “Fast Car” which in my opinion is one of ...

Intro

Emily Dickinson is an American poet, who is probably the most recognizable name in American poetry. Not much is known of her motivation regarding her poems as only 12 of the 1800 she had written were published during her life time and she left little in the way of explaining her thoughts regarding what she had written. What is known is that she did not think the majority of her poems were worth public consumption and had told her sister Lavinia (Vinnie) to dispose of them after her death. This was probably due to her poems being heavily altered ...

CHAPTER THREE: MAN AND ARAB MASCULINITY

As Carabí and Armengol (2014) show in their study, Arab masculinity is a hybrid concept entailing adherence to traditional patriarchal values held for centuries in the Arabic world and supported by the religious component of Islam; however, it also “allows liberal values” which might contradict this traditional patterns. Cultural and societal representation of Arab masculinity is thereby rather complex and might emerge in a variety of contexts including family and society on the larger scale. In these representations, stereotypical images of man in traditional Arab context might enclose controversies and correlations between liberal-secular masculinity and conservative masculinity image entrenched ...

There is a significant part of the population that appreciates the science fiction. Science fiction is, in fact, a branch of speculative fiction that covers highly imaginative concepts that are often related to the fields of technology, astronomy, physics, and even socio-anthropology.

Literature has always been something that hogged my attention and interest right from a very tender age. I remember how my mother would read out the fairy tales to me when I was a child. As I grew up, I developed a strong interest in reading fiction. My parents would buy me some of the best books, while I would spend hours reading those books at a stretch. In retrospect, I believe that I have always been a very compulsive reader. Once I started reading a text and got hooked to it, I could just focus on anything else ...

Introduction

The U.S. airline industry continues to be fiercely competitive, due to a combination of rising costs, increased government regulation, fluctuating macroeconomic conditions, and increasingly price sensitive consumers (Southwest Airlines, 2016a). Environmental pressures have led to several mergers and acquisitions within the industry, including major carriers as well as regional and domestic carriers (Southwest Airlines, 2016a). Low-cost domestic airline carriers that offer non-stop service to popular domestic and tourist destinations within North America have emerged as formidable competitors to large, international carriers such as United Airlines. Southwest Airlines and Allegiant Air are two carriers that focus on variations of the ...

The fly is easy to maintain and manipulate. It produces a large number of offspring’s and has a short generation interval that is very favorable ...

The air near the surface will usually become warmer throughout the day. This is one of the main reasons why it is unstable. Then at night, the air that is close to the surface will begin to cool. This is going to form a temperature inversion or a stable atmosphere.2. Inversions aloft are sometimes called “capping inversions” or “lids”. Why?

This is because it is like putting a lid on the atmosphere.

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. Telling the story of science teacher-turned-meth-cook Walter White (Bryan Cranston) and his burnout assistant Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul), Breaking Bad’s serialized narrative, layered performances and dedication to dynamic visual storytelling elevate it in ways not enjoyed by most cable dramas. 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 ...

Personal Statement – Reflections in the Garden

The butterfly garden has an ethereal quality about it. I have found a warm and quiet spot to sit. As I observe the little garden around me, I study its features to determine what gives it this special mood. Spring is arriving and I am grateful for the warmth of the sun on my back, through my jacket to my skin. It reminds me that warm weather and longer days are coming. Anticipation of better weather ahead lifts my mood. Perhaps even the butterflies and insects that fly around here are also excited for warm days ahead – they seem ...

ABSTRACT

Pilot uniforms, particularly in the commercial airline industry, conveys professionalism, competence, and experience. However, historically, uniforms started as a component of safety in aviation, which relied not just in their protective functions but as well in their capability to protect combat pilots from the natural elements of extreme heat and cold, particularly during the era of open cockpits. Protective flight clothing has evolved significantly through decades and even centuries. The sophisticated development in protected flight clothing, however, failed to influence adaption in the civil air transport industry. Using grounded theory through archival literature analysis, the Capstone Project revealed advantages ...
