The ivory trade has been an international problem for decades. While ivory is an important commodity to many of the countries in Africa, the use of this material is threatening the survival of the African elephant. While trade laws and sanctions have been passed by the global community to limit the use of ivory, a number of African countries continue to be active in this trade. By failing to understand the ivory trade and the economic position of many of the African countries, humans have directly contributed to the near extinction of both elephants and rhinoceros. Ivory has been ...

Despite the ongoing process of globalization, there has been definitely set an expressed tendency of so-called ‘international and regional integration’. This tendency is obvious to have become so strong nowadays that almost every field of the international community’s life and activity is subject to integration, which implies regional unification on the basis of similar historic background, geographic location or cultural identity. Therefore, we may safely presume that the all-encompassing process of globalization induces an imminent phenomenon of identification. There are various kinds of such identification: economic, historic, national, etc. Within the framework of our topic, dealing with the ...

The use of technology in the classroom is slowly becoming an integral part of the way teachers impart knowledge in the classroom.

According to Papanek Design is an essential component of all human activity. He states that we do it every day- the act of planning, creating patters for a foreseeable outcome. The design process involves creating meaning from chaos. He is quick to note that not everything that possesses the order we ascribe to them are design, but design should have some conscious intention. The design must also be meaningful and the mode by which a design achieves its purpose is its function. Design involves the creating of aesthetically pleasing work which is an inherent part of the function.

Marxism is a tool to describe relations between social classes in conditions of capitalism rules. Considering discussed material and presentation, we can see that production is targeted not to satisfy client but to create profit for people who are selling goods. This strategy is aimed for exploitation of human labor and leads to wasting of resources. Nowadays perspectives described by Marks are as well useful. Society lives in vicious circle because they work, creating products which are not always necessary.

In addition, we will analyze the film “Fist of Fury” in terms of art of montage. Let us start with Rudolf Arnheim. In his book called “Film as art”, he describes that the main thing ...

The increase in the average temperature of the earth's surface due to various greenhouse gases like Carbon dioxide emissions from deforestation or burning of fossil fuels due to which heat is trapped in the earth's atmosphere is called Global warming. Without this greenhouse effect, the heat would have escaped from earth's atmosphere. Micro-organisms that are found in the soil are very important for sustaining many ecological processes like nutrient cycling, the transformation of metals and decaying of plant matter. Soil micro-organisms contribute a lot to the consumption and production of greenhouse gases like methane, nitric oxide and Carbon dioxide ...

Critical reading is of paramount importance to any student. I would incorporate "reading again," and "connecting the content to the application" into my reading. These two strategies come with valuable benefits that enhance the comprehension of the material. The first round of reading may not give a clear picture of the entire work. Besides, one may find it difficult to understand portions of the material. It follows that one needs to repeat reading the work to differentiate the components such as the thesis, methods, evidence, previews and counter arguments, among others.

Study Questions Why do we want to look and be consistent in most situations? This is because consistency is considered a good personality trait. It is associated with intellectual and personal strength.

Why do we find even rigid, stubborn consistency desirable in many situations?

Life needs nourishment and development to be fulfilling as we observe from our texts. The two female human beings that were born in darkness were so much longing to see the light and finally discover the meaningful purpose of their lives. We can also observe that with light comes life, without which life doesn’t have much purpose and meaning. The patience exhibited by these females in the text for waiting for the light also implies that for humanity to achieve happiness and realize the aim of life they have to be patient.

Euthypro

Euthypro has clear vision of terms “pious” and “piety”. Like he said, “piety is doing as I do, prosecuting your father (if he is guilty) on a charge of murder; doing as the gods do--as Zeus did to Cronos, and Cronos to Uranus.” He provided strong support of his view, but still could not convince me. I think there should be more clear ways to explain not only this, but many other terms. People should have general criteria to answer questions like “what is love?” At first, there should be direct definition. However, it is hard to create it ...

But to the fore, the problem of choice comes – how to rationally determine the most appropriate technology?

The main difference of the prefabricated concrete construction from the monolith is manufacturing of building structures in the factory with careful laboratory monitoring of the whole process (concretenetwork.com, 2016). Impact of human factors on the quality of the product is reduced to an absolute minimum, and perhaps it can be ...

INVESTIGATING THE RESISTIVITY OF A WIRE

Electrical resistance is a physical quantity characterizing the properties of the conductor to interfere with the passage of electric current and voltage, which is equal to the ratio of the voltage at the end of the conductor to the current flowing through it (Brown, Forbes T., 2006, p. 43). The electrical resistivity is a physical value that characterizes the ability of a substance to prevent the passage of electric current. The resistance of an electrical circuit can be calculated, with the help of two equations below (Woan, G., 2010). R=VI

R – Resistance (ohms), V – Voltage (volts), I – Current (amps)

R=pLA p – Resistivity (ohm.m) L – Length (meters)

A – Cross-sectional area (meters2)

The law protects children from exposure to violent materials. It is guided by psychological research that has indicated a relationship between aggression behavior and playing of violent video games (Palo Alto Medical Foundation). Opponents of this view, however, see no scientific connection between existing world problems and violent videos games consumption (American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry). The question of whether a violent video game increases aggressive thoughts and angry behaviors is, therefore, an issue of discussion. The purpose of this essay is to come up with ideas that can aid in understanding the debate, and then asking ...

Introduction Recent trends of cost minimization focus on improving production efficiency and the field of engineering has provided a key function towards this end. As a matter of fact, one particular reason why engineers are hired to supervise and manage production plants or factories is because they have strong analytical and scientific background, which is highly applicable in improving production efficiency and cost minimization. Since the start of the 20th century, engineers have helped production industries develop methods on how to maximize production while minimizing costs using analytical and measurable methods. One particular production management method that ...
