The area also has groceries and sidewalks where pedestrians can walk and cycle as well. Moreover, the neighborhood also has public transport system. Such elements help to make up the built environment in my neighborhood. All these aspects of built environment in my checklist impact ...

The general consensus regarding the interpretation of the amendment is that it grants the legal right to any citizen of the country to own and carry weapons. However, given the broad scope of the amendment, it is difficult to determine the limits of what the law allows and disallows. What is clear however ...

The experiment was done to investigate the relative roughness of pipe three though a plot of the friction factor verses the Reynolds number. A comparison of the obtain results was made against a Moody diagram. Also, additional comparison of the experimental results obtained from pipe 1 and 2 were made against theoretical values obtained through Prandtl and Blasius equations. This process entailed plotting the theoretical and the experimental values on the same comparative roughness against Reynolds number chart. Additional results of different types of flow, exhibited by the flowing fluid, was done and represented in a graph of head ...

Abstract

The ethical and technical importance of effective, efficiently performed forensic crime scene investigation combines the use of creative thinking, with well-planned assessments and collection of evidence. When law enforcement participants function together as a team, in the engagement of utilizing standardized procedures in the collection and recovery of evidence, whether on ground-surface or burial excavations, precision and integrity may be maintained as foundational to the process. Preservation using photographic, videotaping, and handwritten documentation during each step of the crime scene investigation process, provides a basis of accuracy in reporting outcomes and greatly aids in an unambiguous identification of party – ...

As a matter of fact and law, it is indeed true that to successfully bring a claim in negligence, the claimant has to prove on a balance of probabilities the existence of a duty of care, breach of that duty by the defendant and a resultant loss, harm or injury to them. This is known as "the three-part test" for negligence. In addition to these essential elements of the tort of negligence, no defenses should be applicable if a claim is to succeed. However, successfully proving the existence of these elements and getting remedies from courts is not a ...

The primary difference between a data warehouse and a database is the that a data warehouse is a repository of data that has been obtained from different sources over time, and that is stored in a unified schema and is typically used for decision support and analysis. On the other hand, a database is a representation of the presented status of particular data that has been stored and is mainly used to handle live quires and online transactions. The similarities between a database and data warehouse are that they are both means of storing large amounts of data. Characterization ...

Bergamo is one of the most historic cities in the Lombard region of Italy. The city has been undercapitalizing on the tourist industry, bringing in marginal revenues in part because of the relative location to Milan, a city larger and better suited to massive scale tourism. In fact, Bergamo is usually avoided by tourists, except for those taking guided tours, mainly because Milan has the main airport in the region and because it is believed that the city has little to offer, which simply is not true. Recently, the joint cooperation of Slovenia and Italy to expand upon the ...

Introduction

Sexuality and Christianity - often these two topics are opposed. This is not surprising because the negative attitude towards sexual relations and sex-phobia, fear in relation to sexuality, negative attitudes towards sexuality accompany the entire history of the Christian churches. One theory of the fall of humanity says that the sin of Adam and Eve was that they have entered into a sexual relationship. (Kamitsuka, M.D., 2010, p.26) In turn, the Christian asceticism tried to instill in Christians a feeling of contempt for their own corporeality (by the way, another theory Fall states that "leather garments" that God gave ...

Peter Singer's principle of preventing bad occurrences is based on the need for those that have more to give to those who are unable to come up with enough resources to maintain a basic standard of living. In this sense, those who are more affluent are obligated to provided for those that would be considered to be poor. This is based on the underlying notion that it is immoral not to provide for the well-being of others when there are no negative effects towards the self for doing so. For this reason, it is necessary for individuals to look ...

The article 2 of the Human Rights Act of 1998 is a fundamental provision that is usually invoked to safeguard the right to life of individuals and that which imposes the legal obligation of contracting states to take appropriate steps not only in refraining from taking life intentionally, but also to take the appropriate steps to safeguard life. This provision has become the controversy in many cases involving human rights torts, by virtue of the section 6 of the Act that provides a statutory cause of action against the public authorities or bodies.

Implications of Erecting Additional Transmission Lines

Introduction Auckland is one of the regions in New Zealand. Auckland does not have many power generation sites like the other regions in New Zealand. However, the demand characteristics for Auckland are still high and are projected to increase due to population growth and economic development. Given that many of the energy production sites have been developed and the development of the remaining sites faces opposition from environmental groups, the viable options for easing the supply issues in Auckland include the development of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar energy, the optimization of the current transmission network ...

Introduction

Taking measurements may require the conversion of the measured quantity to electrical quantity. Transducers are devices or elements that perform this function by transforming physical quantities such as quantities like sound, light, or temperature into electrical signals like current, voltage, or capacity. Transducers consist of inputs, sensing elements, transduction elements, signal processing, and electrical outputs. The inputs known as the measurands are the quantities, states, or properties that are to be translated into electrical outputs. The sensing elements accurately measure these input energies and sends the information to the transduction elements to be transformed into the desired form. The ...

Introduction

Over the years, little has changed the way romantic relationships are formed. Both scholars and the average dater agree it usually begins with physical attraction and perceived similarity, and progresses in a somewhat predictable manner from there. Typically, this progression has followed theoretical frameworks such as Knapp’s stages of relational development and Taylor’s (1968) social penetration theory. What these theorists might not have accounted for in the 1970’s (and what seems to be transforming the way young people pursue relationships) is the invention of the Smartphone.

Increasing Access and Use of Local Certified Farmers’ Markets:

Abstract The Supplemental Nutrition Program Women, Infants, and Children provides healthy foods, nutritional education and certain referral services to low-income pregnant and post-partum women, infants, and children up to age five. Groundbreaking modifications in 2009 added cash vouchers for fruits and vegetables to WIC’s approved foods list. While these vouchers are redeemable at local Certified Farmers’ Markets, research in California exposed specific barriers to WIC participants utilizing this option. Our proposal addresses the three main deterrents to redeeming vouchers at local farmers’ markets, including: (1) lack of transportation, CFM in close proximity or knowledge of CFM location, (2) ...

Visual Understanding

Introduction to Visual Understanding When it comes to visual representation of images, intricate details of the image may hinder an individual from completely understanding what a visual image is trying to convey. In most cases, the detail that may catch a viewer’s interest may not necessary be of significance value as compared to the whole image in totality. As such, the viewer of the image ends up not understanding an image that may be simple in its presentation. An example provided is that of a painting of a moth on the bark of a tree where the viewer ...

Abstract

Slide 2:

In the modern world today, we face as a global culture the inclination of civil wars and political crises and displacement of peoples. The quote mentioned above refers to the displacement of people due to natural and political disasters. When these disasters transpire, individuals are typically living in sub-standard living conditions. What ends up happening as a result is that people are exposed to living conditions with lower sanitation that were seen many centuries ago. This subjects these populations to diseases that they may have not been subject to previously. In order to combat this epidemic, we have to ...

Background: While studies have shown that the silica levels in the hydraulic fracturing sites are very high, there is paucity of information as to how far away from the sites the silica levels in the air are dangerously high. Methods: The study will employ a longitudinal design with the data being collected over a ten-year period. The samples will be collected in a linear direction. The samples ...

The architecture of the early 20th century relied heavily on the introduction of new materials which led to the existence of new styles that rejected the notion of social hierarchy and religious affiliation. During this period, the buildings created within the early phase of modernization became so diverse and eccentric yet it was due to this nature that allowed architects to apply all the scientific knowledge in creating functional structures rather than buildings based on the designer's viewpoint. What separates the style of the 20th century from its predecessors was their openness in terms of exploring new materials especially ...

Introduction

There has been a cold war between the United States and Cuba since the island was under the rule of Spaniards. Cuba lies only ninety miles of the coast of Florida, and this proximity has lent a viewpoint of many American decision-makers. This proximity to the United States also meant that their harbors were of strategic importance. Cuba's harbors could be used by enemies to threaten the US, and conversely, the US could use the harbors as its first line of the defense against its enemies. This island was factored into the United States economic system, and its economy ...

The story labeled ‘booze-branded merchandise may spur teen drinking’ indicates that teenagers owning merchandise with alcohol brands are at a high risk of drinking (Rauf, 2016, p.1). The research indicated a strong relationship between owning alcohol-branded merchandise (such as caps and shirts) with actual drinking of alcohol. Teenagers who did not drink were likely to start drinking a year after acquiring alcohol-branded items. Ownership creates the onset of drinking but has no influence on the amount of alcohol consumed. The conclusion emerges from a review of thirteen studies conducted by different researchers on the same subject. The review, however, ...

Discussion of the crisis issues associated with the Indian Ocean Earthquake and Tsunami Disaster in 2004

Management in crisis is a tough enough situation. However, the horrific onslaught of a suddenly unexpected tsunami literally crashing dramatically upon one’s doorstep is simply unthinkable. The inconceivable occurred in Indonesia, when the Aceh-stimulated earthquake stirred the violent killer waves in 2004 costing the lives of 127,000 people, roughly half a million injured – leaving behind potential scores of disease-prone epidemics and mourning of loved ones (Pascapurnama, Murakami, Chagan-Yasutan, Hattori, Sasaki & Egawa 2016). One international journalist and helper in the aftermath of the Indonesian Indian Ocean Earthquake Tsunami disaster, Bill Nicol, in his book Tsunami Chronicles, described the ...

Whether by force of stereotypical perception or the prevalence of such interpretation I the political discourse, people have always perceived racism through the prism of economic and legal mistreatment of black people. However, people can maltreat their own fellow countrymen with skin color other than white by disposing of hazardous toxic waste in immediate proximity to their area of residence. It is disturbing how Americans exploit their own endangering their physical wellbeing. Since coming to surface in the 1980s, the notion of environmental racism has not lost its relevance for what is now 3.5 decades. While some US locations ...

Siu Hoi Wan is located in the southern part of Canton, and has been populated by Cantonese-speaking Han people known as the Hakka since this time. Initially settled in 206 BC during the Qin Dynasty, the area has been occupied since (Van Dyke). The Hakka found Siu Hoi Wan, or “little bay,” to be largely protected from the worst of the typhoons that annually strike the southern regions of China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. Because of the historical infighting that existed between the different city-states, the people of Siu Hoi Wan found the area to be particularly helpful in ...

Introduction

Over time, the growth of a city of a locality leads to the increase in the demand for electricity. The growth in population and the commercial activity puts pressure on the national grid. Without commensurate investments in the generation of power, the increase in demand results in shortages. To supplement the shortage of electricity in the region, more power can be brought in from the generation sources. However, this is complicated if the power generation plants are located far away. This is because more high voltage overhead transmission lines would be required. The Ministry for the Environment (2010) finds ...

The research problem will be to investigate whether the patrimonial political systems of Singapore and South Korea are democracies that surpass their liberal Western analogues in terms of national growth and even democratization in some ways. It appears that, contrary to the popular misperception, democracy is not necessarily a lack of restraint and complete discretion or at least a range of freedom like the right to media. Sometimes, states like Singapore being low on resources and facing external threats decide on less liberal norms and behaviors bordering on authoritarianism in specific aspects. Regulated merit-based selection practices and disciplining norms ...

Metropolises are large urban areas or cities that are significant political, economic and social cultural centers for a given region or country. They are also important hubs for international or regional commerce, communications and connections. In reference to large cities, neighborhoods are usually districts or localities characterized by certain ranks and qualities of its inhabitants. Therefore, neighborhood segregation refers to the physical separation of urban localities or residents into two or more neighborhoods. Although neighborhood segregation had been attributed to social courses such as ethnicity, racism and cultures, in the last few decades, there is growing evidence that differences ...

An accident can be described as an undesirable event that could have been prevented, had the contributing factors to the event been identified and action taken to prevent it: these could be human factors, organisational factors, or predisposing factors. The same can be said of the events leading to the litigation sought by the residents of Woburn, Massachusetts in the USA. Approximately 50 years ago, the residents complained continuously of foul tasting waters (due to high concentrations of manganese and iron making it undrinkable), between the years 1964 and 1979, supplied by the municipal wells. The situation was further ...

Rainfall is available to everyone in most areas of the planet. In the tropical rain forests for example, the main source of rain as many are taught in high school, is the rain forest: therefore the more the forest coverage, the more the rain. If the forest cover were to diminish for a particular reason, say natural processes, then the amount of rainfall will reduce consequently and recover during another season: and if the reduction of forest over reduced to excessive logging, then the problem persists until action is taken to control the logging. The rainfall in this case ...

Islam is one of the most widely practiced religions around the globe. Like any widely practiced religion, Islam is defined by a number of aspects or characteristics.
