Essays on Isaac Newton.

Personal and professional accountability

In regards to my personal and professional responsibility, I consider myself to be competent based on the Nurse Manager Skills Inventory because I have just worked as a registered nurse for few years. However, I have a high aspiration of ensuring that I become an expert in the field of nursing, I plan to achieve this by progressing my education to highest levels attainable within the nursing profession. I subscribe to the school of thought that self-fulfillment comes about when one achieves whatever goals he/she has set for himself/herself. Pursuing higher education will, therefore, help me achieve my career ...

Abstract

The experiment involved the investigation of the young’s modulus of different beams made from different materials. The beams that were used for the test were steel, aluminum and timber. The experiment involved placing of the beams on the measurement machine shown below and addition of loads at the center of the beam. The loads were then varied across the beams while investigating the relationship that existed between the beams when different loads were added. The height, width, and the respective deflections were therefore recorded for analysis. The dial gauge was used to measure the deflection of the beam ...

Introduction

A refrigerator is an electrical device used in temperature maintenance below ambient temperatures. To achieve this function, the refrigerator should be able to create a heat sink at cold room temperatures a temperature that should be lower than the ambient temperature while at the same time also rejecting heats having higher temperatures than the ambient temperatures. To achieve this refrigerant is forced to undergo evaporation at temperatures lower than the ambient temperature(Griffiths, 1937). When the refrigerant is compressed at high pressure and condensing temperatures above the ambient temperature results in the loss of heat and condensation back to ...

The Problem

For this case study, we focus on an application of regression analysis in engineering. In this case study, we use data to build a model for predicting average electrical output, y. In this case study, we use data from a Combined Cycle Power Plant to build a model for average electrical output, y. We examine the residuals, the deviations between the predicted and the actual electrical output levels, to detect an independent variable omitted from the regression model.

The Data – Source: UCI Machine Learning Repository

A combined cycle power plant (CCPP) is composed of steam turbines (ST), gas turbines (GT), and heat recovery steam generators . In ...

FBI VS Jewish Defense League

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has been in operation as a major criminal investigation bureau in the US. This national crime-fighting agency of security goal is to protect America and the larger international community from criminal dangers that affect the world today (US Department of Justice, 2011). It was started in 1908 when Theodore Roosevelt was the president of the US by Robert Bonaparte (Weiner, 2013). Robert Bonaparte was the then attorney general of the US. It started as a task force of special agents, whose work was to track the major crimes that were happening in various ...

In presenting the news in an ethical manner, empirical evidence becomes a vital element. The profession of photojournalism is an integral part of the field of journalism, which responds to this demand for empirical evidence through its very nature. It is not only responsible for bringing important moral issues to light but, in a time where secrecy and covert deeds have taken precedence over openness, it provides a level of perspective regarding the events that occur throughout the world. In assessing the perspectives of professionals in the field as well as various other thinkers and experts it becomes evident ...

Many centuries ago, a man witnessed an apple fall from a tree and had a scientific revelation about the way that the objects on the earth worked. This was no ordinary man: this was Isaac Newton, and this incident would lead him to formulate the law of gravity. There are many variations and controversies about the apple story, including a conspiracy that Newton himself made it up. Regardless of the origins of the story, this scenario has become the symbol of Isaac Newton’s life and person in science classes around the world. In addition to his theories of ...

Abstract

Economics is the science of studying behavioral aspects of the consumer market. Trends in the consumer market directly influence the production, distribution and consumption of goods and services. Micro economic specifically explores the aspects of rationalization that affects the decision making of the consumer market. Research in these areas is key to the basis of institutional theory: which can be used to make future productions of the consumer market for instance. The theory of bounded rationality holds, that the decision making process is usually influenced by limitations such as time, available information and cognitive functions. The consumer therefore is ...

Development and Challenges of Football after 1990 World Cup

1.0 Introduction Football has over the years faced challenges despite its growth in popularity. Szymanski (2002) argues that football has significantly improved the economic standards of the countries who host the world cup and also those with the major leagues. Lee & Taylor (2005) argue that tourism has been on the rise due to football, and this has come to be with the 2202 World Cup hosted by South Korea and Japan. However, the report has dwelt much on the recent history of football that took center stage after the 1990 world cup finals. Some of the main topics that ...

The most appealing of the four major and three minor ideologies discussed in the text, is social democracy. To be sure the principles of social democracy present a political framework that seems the most flexible as well as the ablest to resolve common and traditional problems that affect most modern democracies such as economic and social inequality, the amassing of wealth in the hands of the few (Newton and Deth). In other words, social democracy presents a framework to achieve the best of all ideological choices. Social democracy for instance, does not demand either a fully privatized economy as ...

Abstract

The issue of the necessity and value of Graduate Medical Education, also known as GME, is a matter of studies and researches on the local levels. The economics of such phenomenon as GME is pretty complicated and has lots of positive impact. GME is extremely expensive as it is held nationwide. Medicaid is the main program that finances GME, with funds being delivered on both federal and national level. GME allows controlling the number of physicians and avoiding shortages. It creates conditions for saving recruitment costs that can be redirected to patient care needs, increases patient care quality and ...

Pollution in Bishumati River in Nepal (photo courtesy of NTNC)

N epal has experienced rapid growth and urbanization in Nepal is on an upward trend. However, the effect of the increase in human population in the urban areas and the discharge of untreated industrial effluent into water sources has led to pollution of rivers in Nepal (Bajracharya & Newton, 2006). Currently, pollution of water is the most serious issue on public health. Many studies conducted in Nepal have shown that public water supply is of poor quality since the water is contaminated with bacteria. The major sources of water pollution in Nepal have been identified as physical pollutants which are ...

Seawater Desalination

Availability of adequate clean and fresh is a primary aspect that determines the establishment of any human settlement. With the access to clean water, a population is likely to lead a healthy life, and such a community is highly productive. Climatic changes and other various factors have prompted water shortages in many areas. It is more worrying that the situation is likely to become worse in the future. This highlights the need of finding alternative and efficient strategies for addressing this life threating issue. Failing to adopt such strategies is tantamount to preparing for a disaster that will be ...

Introduction

Tribal courts are a common phenomenon among American Indians/Native Americans. Their existence has been shaped and aligned along the Anglo-styled justice system that is dominant in the United States of America. There is a need to learn and understand the development of the tribal courts as relates to the American Indian approach. For instance, it is worth-noting that there exist several similarities between the 19th and 20th century American Indian experiences. The introduction of the Anglo-styled system of justice also means that the system to be used should be balanced. Whereas the tribal courts represent the past, the Anglo-styled ...

Multi-party System in Egypt

Introduction A discussion on party systems is based on the distinctions that exist between dominant one-party, two-party, and multiparty systems. Party families such as socialist, Christian democrat, agrarian, liberal, conservative, regional and ethnic parties, and other new parties characterize democracies of the world (Deth and Newton 276). Party systems have similar features as party families because they are based on the social and economic structure of society. Party systems such as two-part system, multi-party system, dominant one-party system exist as part of party families (Deth and Newton 276). Multi-party systems are evident in countries where governance is based on ...

The Age of Enlightenment is also commonly referred to as the Age of Reason. It lasted from 1650 to 1800. Many agree that the cause of Enlightenment was the Thirty Year War (1618-1648) though it was only an outcrop of many underlying issues that faced Europe at the time (Broner, 122). It came to an end during the French revolution. It is such wars that motivated German philosophers and authors to criticize the idea of nationalism and wars to protect nationhood. The German authors included Hugo Grotius and John Cornenius, who were the pioneers of the ideas that formed ...

Science is a methodical approach to the study of the natural world. Most of the questions related to the existence of the world, the past, and future are answered using the observational methods ("The nature if science and the scientific method", 2016). Science not only reflects the truth, but it allows understanding what the most correct fact with the evidence itself is. Scientists test all their nature explanations using experiments, observations, and mathematical models; though the scientific methods tend to change and the confirmation is done through observations and experiments only ("The nature if science and the scientific method", ...

Abstract

Figure skaters graciously glide over ice and perform intricate aerobatics, speed skaters achieve incredible velocities over ice, and thousands of persons each year stumble in ice as they first try out this practice for leisure. This paper reviews the scientific concepts and laws that make ice skating possible, as well as the factors that influence performance and ice skates design.

Introduction

Ice skating, gliding along an ice surface using keel-like runners known as ice skates [1], is a sport practiced by many solely for recreational purposes, while others engage in it as an inherent part of other sports, such as ...

One of the fundamental features of the political system is the pressure groups. Pressure groups represent organized groups that do not have their representative candidates for elections. However, the main aim of these groups is to influence government legislation or policy. They can also be referred as cause groups, interest groups, or protest groups. These groups ensure that the people in power make effective decisions that positively affects the subjects in that specific political system. The pressure groups play a significant role in political and social life and are considered as the fundamental foundation of the modern democracy. According ...

Summary of the Seminar Content

The seminar which I attended had a talk on the overview of hydrology and gravity, instrumentation, modelling and monitoring of artificial recharge, the monitoring of channel infiltration, and the future of hydro geophysics in general. Each of these and subtopics is described below

Hydro geophysics

Hydro geophysics is the measurement of the change of gravity to enable the monitoring of the soil moisture, the ground water flow and the infiltration parameters. A good number of geophysical methods are narrowed by the relationship between identified property such as electrical resistivity and the characteristic of interest such as moisture. Improving the resolution of ...

Ted Talk as an organization is a platform to share ideas with a key focus on technology, entertainment and design, on a myriad of topics from business, science and global issues. Dan Cobley formerly of Google shared his presentation in Ted Talk with his topic being “What physics taught me about marketing”. After listening to Dan Cobley’s Ted Talk the first thing that is evidenced is that any and everything can have a connection, all we need is an introspective review, since from a general perspective marketing and physics have nothing in common. The principles of marketing and ...

Modern astronomy

There were four main contributors to modern astronomy: Sir Isaac Newton, Johannes Kepler, Galileo Galilei, and Tycho Brahe. Brahe advocated for the new standards for having a more precise observation even though he did not personally believe in the view of heliocentric. All of his contributions were huge for astronomy because he was able to create new instruments along with being able to calibrate them. He would check the accuracy of his instruments on a regular basis so it helped him to revolutionize instruments for astronomy. Kepler was an assistant for Brahe until he died in 1601. This helped ...

Science and Scientific Research have come a long way. As human beings, our history has been shaped directly by our scientific enlightenment. Compared to how long our species has been around, scientific revolution can be termed as still being somewhat young. In this time span, however, man has evolved in terms of understanding, manipulating and better utilizing available resources. Science itself, or the broader application of scientific laws, has been around for as long as humans have been around. Despite science being around, scientific revolution gets its name from a period of accelerated innovation and research in scientific disciplines ...

NR702: Project and Practicum I

Session, Readmissions in Home Care Readmission rates in hospitals and home care environments has become a major problem due to the reduction in reimbursement rates. There are several diagnoses that are shown to have higher readmission rates heart failure, pneumonia, and myocardial infarction. If a hospital performs poorly in preventing 30-day readmission rates for these diagnoses, there will be a financial penalty. This research will review the readmission issues with congestive heart failure (CHF) and delineate the significance of the problem with this specific issue. Further, the paper will outline a PICOT question, synthesize the literature related to CHF ...

Personalized Ethical Decision-Making Model

In the field of practice, professionals are always tasked with making decisions on various activities. Therefore, there is a need to have a good decision-making model in mind. The decisions that are made by an individual in the human service field need to be relevant and appropriate to improve the quality of service that is offered. An ethical decision-making model is, therefore, relevant and of importance to a professional in the human service field (Newton, 2013). Designing a personalized decision-making model may not be comfortable to an individual because there are circumstances that will affect the professionals’ ethical decisions ...

Introduction

For the specification of the control of an aircraft, other parameters and equipment’s other than the basic aircraft control are required. This is because there are various dynamic performance criteria that need to be factored in the aircraft control system design. The basic aircraft system requires a navigation and control so that it works efficiently. The basic structure of the aircraft system is identified as below with the various parts performing various functions:

The stability augmentation and transient response improvement are provided by the estimation control of the linear feedback block of the system. The forward loop provides ...

Today printing technology has advanced to the level of full automation. This is evidence with digital printing technology emerging that is capable of not only producing an entire newspaper but fold it as well. One of the latest developments in printing is the Xeikon 8000 which is capable of producing approximately 8.5 million pages every month. With such capability, it requires a single operator. Dye-sublimation printing is the technology preceded the Xeikon 8000 one. It produced high-quality photo prints, combining three color panels with a clear overcoat to transfer heat to a ribbon and emerged in the mid-1990s. The ...

Introduction

The events that shape the contemporary fabric of society often seem new. The challenges and issues that the society faces today have been looked at from the perspective that they have not been experienced anywhere before. The passage of time may momentarily erase the interconnected nature of human behavior and activity, but history often becomes the constant reminder. Numerous occurrences can trace their origins and causes in history. History thus plays the crucial role of providing insights on past occurrences and their influence on the modern society. This then offers a probable channel of pursuing solutions and experience for ...

Dr. Kennedy was fascinating to listen to. As a professor from Northern Arizona University he presented a unique topic on the future hydro geophysics. What really resonated with me was the manner in which he began by exploring the history of the field, where we are today, and where technology is likely to take us in the future. At the same time, he revealed the reality that technology is not likely to impact the limitations we currently face in measuring gravity, as we have already refined that process to the fullest extent possible. It is not everyday that you ...

Abstract

Serial killers are loathsome individuals who murder at least three individuals, usually for psychological gratification. Gerard John Schaefer fit that description for the multiple murders he committed while operating as deputy sheriff. He clearly relished torturing and murdering young girls. His behavior and actions were attributable to his troubled childhood that was devoid of parental love. As a child, he experienced a lot of bad events that were registered in his subconscious mind and though he tried to suppress them, it reached a time when the conscious mind would involuntarily pick that information from his subconscious mind. The theory ...

We chose a study conducted and described by Emma Newton and Vichii Jenvey. The investigation was held to study the connection between the theory of mind (ToM) and social competence. Also, the question of the association of peer play and social competence was held. Theory of mind is the ability to recognize, to understand, and to predict intents, beliefs, desires, and behavior in oneself and also in others. It is a system of representation of mental phenomena which develops intensively in childhood. The most important aspect of the model of mental state is a realization of the other as ...

The Parole Board

Ethical Situation The pressure on releasing inmates into community sentences is evident. The Governor’s fears are not implausible. However, releasing recidivism-prone inmates will increase the burden on the society and reduce their safety dramatically. Despite spending almost a trillion dollars on correctional facilities, the prisons are overflowing. A vast majority of these inmates are serving sentences for drug related charges. They will definitely get back to their former livelihoods the moment they step out of prison. However, retaining them in prison under inhumane conditions is a violation of human rights. Since the US has the largest prison population ...

Chick-Fil-A Event Analysis: Against Same Gender Union

Chick-Fil-A was founded by Truett Cathy in the year 1967 in Atlanta, Georgia. It is the second biggest chicken seller in the U.S, currently serving in thirty-nine states. Chick-Fil-A makes efforts to be a family eating-place and has well-known religious principles in its operations. The restaurant business was running well until in recent times when the restaurant’s president made some controversial remarks on Gay Marriages. A gay Marriage is a marriage between individuals who are of the same-sex; the marriage is commemorated either in a religious setting or in a secular, civil ceremony. In the late twentieth century, ...

Biography:

Creating a visual language with simple yet stunning white and black pictures seems to flow easy in the works of Hiroshi Sugimoto. Born in 1948 (Tokyo, Japan) he has proved to be a multi-faceted artist who is equally good in painting, installation and architecture apart from photography. His photography tries to capture the time and preserve it for the viewer. He has also explored several other themes such as empiricism, and metaphysics. In his works he tries to bridge the gap between what exists to a layman and how it can be transformed with a picture when laid in ...

Social Entrepreneurship: The Ashoka Foundation

Introduction Social entrepreneurship is the application of entrepreneurial skills to solve social problems. On the other hand, social entrepreneurs are the individual who use a business approach to formulate innovative solutions to societal problems in a bid to bring wide scale and positive change. Unlike conventional entrepreneurship that is aimed at maximizing profits and returns on investment, social entrepreneurship is more concerned with bringing positive change in the society (Brand 2011). Social entrepreneurs aim at introducing cultural, social, and environmental impacts. Also, social enterprises can be profit oriented or non-profit depending on the approach and purpose of the organization. ...

Response Paper

Contact hypothesis is one of the best ways to enhance good relationship among social groups that have been at conflict with one another. This theory states that contact between people of different cultural and racial backgrounds can reduce prejudice (Miller & Brewer, 2013). This theory states that having contact with another person increases understanding because the two individuals can listen and appreciate divergent views. This mutual understanding can helping reducing prejudice. Thus, the occurrence of discrimination, racism, and stereotyping can be managed by having contact with diverse groups. Although people tend to behave differently as per social identities, ...

The constitution can be defined as the main legal document or a set of documents that governs the key aspects of life in countries. There are no established rules regarding the form and content of constitutions taking into account the different approaches to establishing and ruling the states along the history. As Newton and Deth (2010) fairly notice, “Every modern democracy has a unique set of government institutions, and combines them in unique ways” (p. 71). It determines the functions of the main government institutions and politicians who serve as country’s representatives. Therefore, it specifies the separation of ...

The case of Newton is an obvious example of a problem situation as opposed to Newton being a problem employee. The reason for this line of thought is the fact that the determination of whether a person is a problem employee is a process. A single incident cannot be used to make the conclusion that a person within an organization is a problem employee. To come up with this form of judgment, management needs to look into the track record of the said individual. In analyzing the track record, management has to show a general trait of going against ...

I agree with Waller’s sediments that an organization can ensure effectiveness by exercising autonomy, motivating its employees through recognition and focusing on the reason for their operation. First, it is important for the management of a company to exercise democracy in the workplace as a way of creating autonomy among the employees. Giving employees the autonomy to work is a source of motivation that allows them to take up their responsibilities without influence. It is the best way of enhancing creativity in the world place thus enhancing effectiveness. However, the management should have a little control on the ...

GRAV-D is NOAA’s National Geodetic Survey (NGS ambitious program to re-define the vertical datum of the United States by the year 2021. GRAV-D is composed of two major campaigns, which includes; a high-resolution snapshot of gravity in the United States and a low-resolution movie of gravity changes (“GRAV-D: Gravity for the Redefinition of the American Vertical Datum”). The gravity-based vertical datum will be accurate at the 2 cm level where possible. The proposal is included in the NGS 10 year plan. GRAV_D is an ongoing project and is collecting gravity data across the United States and its holdings ( ...

Introduction

There exists a significant difference between the corporate executives and the managers and supervisors, especially in the largely incorporated entities. The corporate executive is entrusted with the role of overseeing the operations of the corporate, thus, they create plans and delegate the responsibilities to junior staff to foresee their execution and completion in the pursuit of the organization’s goal. The plans are long term in nature and aim at actualizing the general corporate objectives of the organization. They normally make the final decisions despite the fact they may consult with other junior management and the subordinate staffs as ...

The Final Project intervention which I have identified is about intervention in health issues of Native American community. The success of this project require heavy financial investment and I do not have sufficient funds to implement on my own. I have been looking for external funding from public and private organizations. To date, I have identified two sources of funding. One of them is First Nations Development Institute (FNDI) while the other is the National Institute for Health (NIH). FNDI is RFP while the National Institute for Health is FOA. The NIH is American public research agency involved with ...

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 ...

1 Copernicus model was an improvement of the previous cultural belief of a sun-centered solar system defined by Aristotle. He generated a theory that the earth spins once daily on its axis and always revolves around the sun. He claimed that the sun is at the center of the earth, and all the planets are organized in orbits all around the sun. This model was a revolutionary in the in that it helped understand the organization of the planets, the sun, and earth (Cunningham 89). The belief had been in use for up to one hundred years when the ...

<First Name, Middle Initial, Last Name> <Name of Instructor> <Date dd/month/2016> <Title of the Paper> The age of Enlightenment laid the foundation to the advancement to the different branches of science today. During the fifteen and sixteenth century, scholars like Sir Isaac Newton started to question the different beliefs, traditions and practices like medicine, astronomy, biblical studies, and history (A Value - System That Is INTEGRATED By CRITICAL THINKING Values And Perspective Of The Enlightenment Cultural Matrix). The scholar’s curiosity pushed them to critically analyze the various fields and started to develop a more ...

Abstract

Modern science and technology have had lasting impacts in the area of criminal investigations. Forensic science enables police, law enforcement, and investigators to detect small amounts of evidence left on items and persons at crime scenes. Certain evidence, such as tiny blood stains, were once invisible to the naked eye and had little value to an investigation because the technology for testing the evidence was simply not invented yet. A criminal always transfers some kind of trace evidence between himself and the victim during every crime. Trace evidence is broad and includes things from soil and paint chips to ...

Introduction

Politics is an interesting phenomenon that has been around since time immemorial. However, the scientific approach towards understanding politics may have emerged recently when its study was institutionalized and made as an organized discipline. Most scholars believe that politics, as a science, started in the United States somewhere in the 20th century (Berndtson, 2009, p.1; Easton, 2012, p.134). As observed, “political science as an academic discipline was first established in the United States and that it was only after the Second World War, when politics was made a separate field of study at European universities” (Berndtson, 2009, p.1). Many ...

Abstract

Summary of the Research Proposal With every single day that passes in an organization, there are changes, developments, and challenges, which enhance the knowledge and skills that humans have within this field and its main purpose. Human resource offices are responsible for finding the best candidates to fill a certain job or position in order to develop a company (Smith & Mazin, 2011). After finding or hiring the right people, the HR office is tasked to monitor factors such as internal developments, factors, and issues that may affect the progress of the project as a whole. The aim of this ...

Value of Knowledge

Introduction How does anyone know what they claim to know? This philosophical question has been at the center of the theory of knowledge. As such, many scholars have focused on it, in one way or another, in their quest to advance the theory of knowledge. However, of importance in this essay is the evaluation of the concept value of knowledge. Also, the essay takes a keen interest in examining the effect on knowledge value when the knowledge is not applied. It has been argued that “Without application in the world, the value of knowledge is greatly diminished”. The argument ...

ABSTRACT

The prevalence of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) facilitated the shift of operations in travel agencies from traditional to online platforms in the same way that the Internet changed how customers can access goods and services. The Internet enables customers to gain access to online travel agencies and choose to purchase travel-related products and services online. Nevertheless, previous studies prove that online travel agencies are finding it difficult to compete with one another and the adoption of ICT as a major part of operations present other problems that set barriers for the growth of online travel agencies. The widespread use ...

Discussion

All roads lead to Rome is a common idiom used to mean that the same goal can be arrived at using different routes. But the history of this saying has a lot of significance to physics in terms of vectors, scalars, displacement and distance. Rome was the heart of activity during the times of the Roman Empire. Every road in the empire would either directly lead to Rome or link to a major road leading to Rome. Putting this into the physics perspective, vectors, scalars, displacements and distance are measurements that have a starting point and an endpoint.

A vector has both direction ...

Same Sex Marriage

Marriage is often considered a sacred rite that only a few could experience in their lifetimes. Some would find themselves in a bountiful and happy marriage while a few would find themselves in short and sometimes painful marriages. Nonetheless, the debate has still fostered new arguments considering the entrance of LGBT communities over their rights to a recognized marriage. However, given the current situation of same-sex marriages in the United States, it is visible that it is unconstitutional to bind something such as marriages to people just because of their gender preferences for it is a direct violation to one’s right to make choices ...

Introduction

Johannes Kepler was born in 1571, in the middle of the scientific revolution. He was a German astronomer, astrologer, and mathematician. His father abandoned him in his early childhood, and it took him twice as long as usual to complete the elementary school. Kepler finally graduated and joined a theological seminary before joining the University of Tuebingen. At the university, Kepler was distracted from his goal of pursuing a graduate degree in theology. A Protestant school offered him a job as a math and astronomy professor, although he initially believed that he lacked special skills in these subjects. As a professor, Kepler turned his attention ...

21movie directed by Robert Luketic is a film based on a true story, and it involves six students trained to become professionals in card counting, by using the knowledge acquired in class, these students takes Vegas casinos for millions ensuing their innumerable winnings. Essentially, for these students to increase their chance of winning the card game Blackjack at Vegas casinos, they basically “count cards” a trick acquired from class (Mezrich 67). Evidently, it is ostensible that this movie has a lot of mathematics involved, the most profound mathematics technique incorporated into this movie is the “counting of cards”, a technique published in the book ...

Abstract

This paper discusses one of the prevalent ethical issues in our present criminal justice system which is police planting evidence on the suspect. The planting of evidence on a suspect or profiling of innocent people is considered police misconduct. The driving force for the police to commit such crime is due to corruption. During police investigations, the police abuse their power by fabricating or planting of evidence to obtain false conviction by taking money in exchange for favors. Police resort to corruption, engage in other illegal means to earn income and break departmental policies due ...

- What are some of the key urban sustainability issues/challenges facing developing and developed countries?

Health, good working and clean environment, proper and inline development of infrastructure, technological developments are few of the issues faced by both developing and developed countries of the world in urban sustainability. Increased growth of population, poverty, expansion of cities, at the same time less amount of financial assistance are some of the issues of great concern for the developing countries. These issues are not of main problems for the developed countries. The huge ratio of migration from rural areas to urban areas both in developing and developed countries have become a great challenge for the countries as well as ...

Question 1:

When Aristotle is confronted with the philosophical question of what is superior between the scientific knowledge and religious knowledge, it presents the notion of context. It is obvious that some line of thought would be skewed and directed towards believing that scientific knowledge is superior. Like Newton, I am of the opinion that the religion and the notion and concept of God is a fallacy, or at best I would describe it as a hypothesis (Trompf, 93). Thus, the knowledge of nature and science stands to be out rightly superior to the rules of religion or God by extension.

Question 2:

Executive Summary

This project report gives chronological accounts of tornadoes events that have occurred over a period of 33 years, which is from 1980 to 2013. The paper is meant to illustrate statistical analysis of spatial and temporal occurrences of the mentioned environmental disaster. The rationale of the study was to give reasons behind the high instances of tornado related events and to formulate recommendations on how to predict the occurrences to reduce casualties and damage to property. Again, the analysis would build the foundation for modeling of future changes of a natural disaster with the aim of enhancing communication and disaster preparedness. ...

Scientific evolution started several centuries before. Prior to the discoveries that were made by the likes of Aristotle and the rest the details about various aspects of the universe were very scanty. The chart below will dig to the details of scientific evolution by taking into consideration the various scientists who made tremendous contribution into shaping up the universe through their discoveries.

It is worth noting that before the scientific discoveries people held diverse beliefs on the existence of the universe. It is worth noting that the theories on various existence of the universe were rather hypothetical. Several myths ...

In the recent past, school violence has been identified as a serious problem in several countries, and the problem has been made worse in the incidents where guns and knives are involved. Generally, the violence involves fights between students, as well as physical fights carried out on school staff. One form of school violence which has received a lot of attention from the media, as well as the public, is school shootings. This arises from the fact that school shootings pose a serious threat to public safety, and the stakeholders have a reason to worry about that. In the last decade, one of ...
