2. Women In Leslie Chang s Factory Girls And Her TED Talk
Women s rights and equality were cornerstones of Chinese modernization, especially of Mao s vision
of an egalitarian socialist state (illustrated by his slogan that women could hold up half the sky ).
Increased female participation in labor seen as essential to the state and party agenda. While there
were without a doubt many issues women still faced within this period, many policies of the Chinese
Communist Party contributed to women s equality. However, after Mao s death and Deng Xiaoping s
rise to power and his vision of the nation as Socialist with Chinese Characteristics, and the
implementation of China s Open Door Policy, women have again become subordinated in many
spheres of society. Yet instead of relying on male political theorists ... Show more content on

Dagong means working for the boss or selling labor, and illustrates the commodification of labor and
the subordinate status of the worker, in contrast to socialist imaginations of work as liberating. Mei
means little sister, often associated with young, unmarried women in contrast to jie , the older, mature
sister . Thus, the term dagongmei symbolizes the subordination of female migrants, both as migrant
workers under urban factory owners, and as women expected to work long hours, some sacrificing
their education, in order to support their families. Pun articulates the very real struggles many
dagongmei face, from the 1993 Shenzhen factory fire that killed over 80 migrant workers, all but two
female, only then alerting China and the rest of the world of the human costs of China s rapid
development to one woman, Yan, who screams in her sleep after years of work despite being in deep
physical and emotional pain. Such pain is unbearable, and to scream out is the only way to survive.
Yet as Pun argues, their very survival is of itself a form of resistance. These migrant workers may not
be organizing, staging mass strikes or protests against the state or factory owners, but they are
resisting. By screaming out, Yan is forcing the world to hear her pain. By telling

3. Light And Darkness In Macbeth
Light and darkness are, immediately recognized and thought of as, universal symbols that have been
used for centuries. These iconic symbols help us to portray the good and evil in something or
someone. This concept of light and dark, night and day, and good and bad is portrayed throughout
Shakespeare s play The Tragedy of Macbeth. Shakespeare uses these contrasting themes in order to
generate an image of the assorted conflicts, twists, and symbols in the scheme of the story. The entire
tragedy revolves around the effects of such events and the collision, of the deeper meaning, between
what light and dark symbolizes. The imagery of these two well known opposites either brings things
together or tear things apart.
The theme of darkness is ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Light doesn t show much until the end of the play when Macbeth finally dies. Light symbolizes the
small amount of goodness that is left. At the beginning, King Duncan is the symbol of light because he
is a perfect example of a good and honorable King who does his job right. But the second he is
murdered, darkness arrives in the story. As the story continues, Lady Macbeth finds herself a victim to
the deceitfulness of her mind. In Act five, Scene one, her remorse beings to show its effects on her.
This ultimately causes her to become ill. The doctor describes his helplessness for her but begins to
watch her when she sleepwalks. While doing so, the doctor asks Lady Macbeth about the light she is
holding. He wants to know where it came about her, when the gentlewoman tells him, Why, it stood
by her: she has light by her continually, tis her command. (Act V. Scene I) Lady Macbeth is flooded
with guilt, therefore she doesn t sleep well. She fears the aftereffects of her horrible deeds. Because
she s so fear filled of the darkness that comes to punish her, she demands to have a light kept close by
her at all times. She is doing this because she is aware that she lives in darkness. Therefore, she tries to
use a deceitful light source to help keep her guilt away. When you are in the pure darkness you need
some form of light to be able to see. Before Banquo is murdered, he calls

4. Why Do Advertisers Use Weasel Words
Phrases and words are utterly powerful. Whichever words or phrases you decide to say can impact
amazing results. Language is a powerful source of symbols for us to communicate to others. Many
people receive advantages and disadvantages for what they say. A few times every month you would
see the president present a speech to the public. The president does not write up a speech by himself,
he has a speechwriter to fulfill that job. His speechwriter gets paid a great amount of money just to put
together a few words and phrases that he/she knows will bring great results or poor results. Words
influence people every day. Advertising is the act of producing advertisements to sell products or any
other service. There are thousands of commercials ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Weasel words are used to evade or retreat from a direct or forthright statement or position. Most
advertisers use these words to portray to their audience that their products are great without any actual
proof. The most common weasel word is help . Advertisers use this particular word to claim that their
product will assist with a consumer s problem but there is no legitimate answer that it actually will.
They want the consumers to believe that it will satisfy their needs. In a Trident Gum commercial, the
advertisers used a common weasel word to prove the need of their product. The commercial begins
with the speaker stating that four out of five dentists would recommend Trident to their patients who
chew gum. Next, it goes into a visual of five dentists voting if they would recommend the gum. While
the dentists are voting, a squirrel jumps through the window and sneaks its way to the fifth dentist.
While the fifth dentist starts to say its vote, the squirrel goes through his pants and bite his genitals
making the dentists scream NO! . At the end of the commercial, the speaker states that Trident Gum
helps stop cavities. The advertisers are promising that their gum will solve dental issues for any
consumers without any real

5. A Writing Ecology Is A Dynamic, Interconnected System Of...
A writing ecology is a dynamic, interconnected system of communication, which works together
through interaction and sharing. As the term ecology traditionally refers to the relationships between
organisms in an environment, the ability to metaphorically link this to a concept of writing redefines
the complexity of networked technologies and the influences of technological change. The ability to
participate in a digitally evolving space opens up new possibilities and opportunities when accessing
and expressing knowledge and information. Snowfall (Branch, 2016) is an explicit example of this as
it demonstrates key concepts through optimising its environment. By allowing the audience to actively
engage themselves in the text, Snowfall revolutionised traditional media in its time.
Writing as a digitally networked environment enriches the experience of the reader by allowing them
to interact with new technological forms. The ability to engage in multimodal writing spaces exceeds
traditional alphabetic text by drawing upon the audience s sensory responses. New multimodal media
explores still and moving images, music, colour and sound that entices and interacts with the
responder. Snowfall is an example of this as it discusses the affects an avalanche had on the town of
Tunnel Creek. Its interactive form produces an interesting layout, which gives the reader a more active
and dynamic experience in contrast to traditional and more restrictive written text. By using a

In many aspects of life, it is essential that you work with other individuals as a team. You can work in
a team whether it is school, work, or your personal life. This year I started working for Inner City
Education Foundation public charter schools, specifically ICEF Inglewood Elementary Academy. The

8. Carp Fishing Tips
Whats the alternative to lead weights?
In this article I would like to talk about some different ways of getting more out of your carp fishing.
Recently I have started to do a few things differently and I think it is making a difference.
Firstly the length of hooklink. Over the last few years articles have talked about using shorter
hooklinks but I don t see many people using them, I m talking about very short 21/2 3inches. I reckon
some anglers are not keen on this because your bait is sitting very close to the lead, but your bait is not
always the length of your hooklink away from the bait anyway, lots of times when you ve cast the bait
follows the lead down and could be sitting right next to the lead unless when you tighten up you move
the lead! If you don t like your bait very close to the lead why is that?, is it because you think carp can
recognise danger when they see the lead! I reckon on well fished waters carp are cautious of leads that
s why I ve starting using the Stonze . ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
All the anglers fished the same lake and used the Stonze system with the very short hooklinks and
used the method with Pallatrax boilies. Over 48 hours 984lb of carp were caught plus tench and roach.
Images curtesy of Brian Atkins 2003
I noticed that directly you cast out you would get small fish attacking the method and would get
bleeps and knocks until the bigger fish moved in and you would get a run. If we had all used 3oz leads
and 10 inch hooklinks I m convinced we wouldn t have caught so many fish. If you use long
hooklinks carp can pick up your bait and move twice the distance of your hooklink before they tighten
to the lead.

In recent years, airlines build a closer relationship, especially European airlines and Chinese airlines.
Europe is the headstream of airplane, but compared to North America, European aviation is a little bit
weak on the ridership. In late 1990s and early 2000s, Europe had more interactions with American
aviation. In recent years, Europe set China as a new partner. European aviation is trying to expand its
international market through increasing new cooperation.
In recent years, the relationship between Chinese and European Aviation is getting closer. The
strongest evidence is that Chinese government and European Union have signed a 5 year work
agreement for reducing the economic burden in aviation industry, preserving aviation safety and
environmental compatibility. European Union and China emphasized the importance of this project by
preparing over 10 million euro as its budget. The detailed work plan was reviewed and updated in

affordable and durable option can be tricky. Most will put the research aside and let the internet, or car
salesperson, tell them which car is best but that does not mean it is best suited for them. After careful
research, comparisons, and consideration towards three different cars, a Jeep Cherokee, Nissan Rogue,
and Honda CR V, teens will be able to make the most responsible purchase and parents will be left at
ease with their child s decision. A teen will want to work with his or her parents to find a car with the
best fuel economy, lowest scheduled payments, and best safety ratings. Fuel economy may not seem
like it would be a person s deciding factor when choosing a car, however, everybody will want to be
aware of it. Fuel economy is very important to someone who does not want to make several stops at
the gas station during the day, or worse, pay for said gas more than they should. The gas a car needs to
run fluctuates in price but typically stay pretty high and those costs will add up. Each car model
consumes a different amount of gas to go the same distance, this is shown through a city/highway
miles per gallon comparison to check how much gas will be used. For a Jeep Cherokee, the

Response to Turner s Essay on The Significance of the Frontier in American History
Turner s The Significance of the Frontier in American History essay presents the primary model for
comprehending American history. Turner developed his notions on the uncovering of the 1890 census
that the frontier was coming to an end, that the nation had occupied its continental borders. As Turner
discusses in his essay, an extensive era of American development approached an ending, but left
enduring marks on American society. A major notion within his claims of the American frontier is, the
existence of an area of free land, its continuous recession, and the advance of American settlement
westward, [that] ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Critics denounce Turner s thesis as being much too ignorant on economic concerns of past industrial
America. Turner was also criticized for removing the natives from his narrative and further ignores
alternative motives. Furthermore, the notion of the frontier is also criticized as being environmentally
deterministic as people did not being fresh based on ambitions, but were merely victims of their
current surroundings.
Supporters of Turner s thesis, defend Turner s ideas of the frontier as the opportunity to spawn
individualism, democracy, and freedom. Furthermore, they announce his claims as valid and
reasonable, defending Turner s notions that during the great American frontier the thinkers were
restless and inquiring, but what they lacked was room in which to try out their innovations…The
frontier offered them the room and the opportunity. (Webb, 53)
While Turner s critics are valid in the sense that Turner s account on the frontier did not reveal the
environmental determinism and his lack of revealing the presence of natives with his narrative as
profound flaws within his claims, nevertheless, his thesis remains extremely influential within

Gullivers Supposed English Superiority Gulliver s typical Anglocentric Enlightenment views are best
exemplified in Chapter 1 of Part IV of Gulliver s Travels. The long paragraph, in which he describes
his encounter with the Yahoos as well as the circumstances leading up to it, illustrates the climax of
his Anglocentric views, after which his English pride begins to gradually degenerate and his desire to
emulate the Houyhnyms arises. His English pride in this paragraph is demonstrated by his resolution
to trade his life with the local Savages using Toys as his only means, his judgment of the Yahoo s lack
of comprehensive language ability, and his ever present disgust for bodily functions. As the passage
opens, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Due to his sense of Enlightenment superiority, Gulliver does not even entertain the possibility that his
life actually is as insignificant as the Toys which he plans on trading for it. Ironically, as his pride
degenerates into a hatred for his own race, Gulliver indeed starts to believe in the insignificance of
human life. After Gulliver considers his options, he inspects the island and observes a species of
animals whom he likens at different points in the paragraph to goats, squirrels, monsters, cattle and
beasts. It is no wonder then, that later when Gulliver reveals that these creatures are human beings,
that his reader is surprised. He describes their shapes as Singular and deformed....their Skins were of a
brown Buff colour. Perhaps one reason Gulliver does not initially see any resemblance between
himself and the Yahoos is because they are not white; perhaps his Anglocentric ideal does not permit
any color but white to be acknowledged as his equal. What seems certain, however, is the fact that
Gulliver feels an immediate antipathy to the Yahoos because they show no indication of having a
rational language. In watching them, he does not see them speak to each other and this alienates him
because as we see in each voyage, it is imperative to Gulliver that he learn the language of the peoples
he encounters, from the Lilliputians to the Brobdingnagians. As with all his journeys, he wants to find

14. Japan As A Collectivist Country
Many westerners view Japan as a collectivist country that differs greatly when comparing it to western
countries such as the United States in cultural aspects. One may explain that Confucianism plays a key
role in how the Japanese society functions. Others may argue that Japan is distinctively different and
no other country share similar traits. People can see the evidence of Japan being a collectivistic
country by comparing Japan to other countries in the concept of high context society versus low
context society. How do Japan and other countries differ in culture? Japan is regarded as a high
context society and on the other hand the United States is considered a low context society. In high
context societies, people often value relationships more than partnership. The virtue of harmony is the
main emphasis in high context societies. In the United States students are often encouraged to know
how to form an argument and debate with other people to prove their opinion and persuade other
people to agree. On the contrary, Japanese students learn about teamwork through different task and
recognize oneself as a member of the society. In Japan, people discourage competition and encourage
cooperation. Unlike the United States where children are often praised for being unique and special,
Japan tends to prefer conformity and children are advised to be just like everyone else in the group.

which they wrapped around their shoulders. They sat down, flat on the grass, and ate their lunch

16. Examples Of Cultural Hegemony In Doris Lessing
Thesis Statement
Understanding the facts that are presented by Gramsci, Raymond and Althusser, regarding the growth
of the theory of cultural hegemony that is typically originated from Marxist ideas and the post colonial
theory, it is indispensable to apply this to the novels of Doris Lessing. The novels of Lessing are
written mostly about women who lived in the colonial countries and have experienced the problems of
the colonizer and repercussion of colonization. The novels chosen for this research are The Grass is
Singing, The Golden Notebook and The Children of Violence series. The projected thesis aims to
study the hidden injuries of a class which is hurt by the so called rulers. It is the aim of the scholar to
bring out the elements which reveal the dignity of the oppressed, and the economism and politics of
the author as externalized in the selected novels. The main aim is to study the elements hegemony in

18. Significance Of Joan Of Arc
1. Introduction 500
For more than a hundred years, the Kingdom of England and the House of Valois of France found
themselves locked in war for the French throne. The hundred and sixteen year series of battles took
place from 1337 to 1453, with historians often separating it into three phases: the Edwardian Era
(1337 1360), the Caroline War (1369 1389), and the Lancastrian War (1415 1453). Despite English
success that lasted the majority of the conflict, and was revived by Henry V, the war resulted a French
victory but high casualty losses on both sides. Beyond this, the war was not only limited to the two
belligerents, but also involved Scotland, Spain, and the Low Countries, such as Belgium, the
Netherlands, and Luxembourg (Villalon). The French victory and resurgence are mostly accredited to
the arrival of Joan of Arc and, subsequently, the unity of the French after her execution by the English.

Parents might think that the idea of their 5 year old girl dieting as too farfetched, but that same thin
ideal is already being pushed on them. In fact, children who watch hours of television a day are
exposed to dieting, and may see it as a part of growing up. Heavier viewing children may glamorize
dieting and view it as a way of playing grown up before they begin to diet with the intention of
meeting an internalized body ideal. (Harrison et al) Children are very receptive to these images, they
may see dieting as just a grown up thing now, but later on may see it as a necessary part of growing
up. If children can catch on to things like that, then they can certainty catch on to things like the thin
ideal. An experiment was done where preschool aged girls were given a choice between playing with
three different game pieces, a fat one, a normal one, and a thin game piece; this was what the

caused the explosion. Some believe that the Spaniards did it, others believe it was a clumsy mistake of
misplaced ammo, others believe it was a spontaneous coal fire that caught a box of ammunition on
fire. No matter the cause, the loss of the ship and 260 of her crew was devastating to America at the
time and led to strong feelings of dislike towards the Spaniards, leading to the Spanish American war
of 1898. The theories behind the explosion of the USS Maine is mainly focused around two ideas,

The Spanish American war was a short war in which America won in three months, two weeks and

21. Magna Carta Essay
The Magna Carta, Latin for Great Paper , was written as a charter for England in 1215 (Magna 1). The
Magna Carta has had the most significant influence on modern day common law and constitutions.
The document was originally written because of disagreements between the Pope, King John, and his
English barons over the rights of the king. The Magna Carta required the king to renounce certain
rights, and to accept that the powers of the king could be bound by law (Asimov 12). There are a few
misconceptions about the Magna Carta, however. It was not the first document to attempt to limit the
power of the king. It, however, failed to limit the power of the king, especially during the Middle
Ages. The Magna Carta had been strengthened ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
During the Tudor period, there was limited knowledge of the document, even by those who wrote
about it. In the statute books, it appeared that the Magna Carta was brought about by King Henry III,
rather than the reapplication of the original charter. The Magna Carta was first used during the Tudor
period as a Bill of Rights. The church often attempted to use the first clause of the Magna Carter to
protect itself from attacks by King Henry, but its claims had no credibility (Asimov 55). The first
person to attempt to use the Magna Carta was Francis Bacon, who asserted that it guaranteed due
process in a trial. At this time in English history, the Magna Carta was used in common law. However,
it was not seen as a set of liberties guaranteed for the people against the Crown and government in
general, but as a normal statute which gave a certain level of liberties that could not be relied on,
especially against the king. Therefore, the Magna Carta had very little effect on government in the
early Tudor period because of the power the king retained, a situation which lasted until the
Elizabethan age. During the Elizabethan age, England was becoming the most powerful force in
Europe. Pride was becoming a primary force in all areas of academics and attempts were made to

The Second World War is one of the most familiar wars to the everyday person because of its massive
effect on the global community s future. It is arguably the first and only total war in the history of the
war. Hew Strachan believes that it is because of its totality, which is seen through all of the
components and scale of World War II. His fellow historian Robert Messer agrees saying That first
truly global conflict mobilized economies and populations of the world on a scale and degree that, if
not total, was unprecedented in history. They both agree, that World War II is the best example of total
war for basically the same reasons, but Strachan will go more in depth. While, Messer dives into the
morality of dropping the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I will first review Strachan s
essay and then will explain how Strachan and Messer both agree that the Second World War was total
in nature. First, we will examine Strachan s essay, Total War . He gives a very good and detailed
argument for how total war was perceived before and after the war. He explains that total war was
used before the war as a means to fully mobilize a nation, but after the war it was used to describe the
carnage inflicted on the enemy. This argument gives total war two definitions, which may be fair,
because how can something abstract have a truly rigid definition. In reality, the combination of the
two definitions lead to a viable single definition of the process of total war.

negative effects on ABS such as: c. Being used in transfer costs operations, making ABC serve other
subsidiaries and making losses d. Serving the global strategic goals of Heineken which might not

ABC continuing its success story leveraging the experience and tactics of el Zayat. With the Banque
Misr joint venture, the company would be perceived as national entity and would receive more

Banque Misr from pulling out from alcoholic (or any non Islamic friendly businesses). Recommended
Action: I would recommend selling ABC to Heineken because Heineken s resources and international
presence will help ABC grow in a sky rocketing speed. At the same time, Heineken s acquisition

Supermassive black holes are so mysterious when it comes to the knowledge we know about them.
We still don t know much about them and there will always be conspiracies about them, but we still
need to find more information about them to understand more. Black holes are developed when a star
s core collapses and then mass is getting eaten by the core which leads to the star to die in a supernova
explosion. This can go two ways, one is that the star turns into a neutron star, and the second is it turns
into a black hole but only if the star is massive enough. There are known to be three kinds of black
holes. Intermediate, stellar, and supermassive black holes. We still don t know how supermassive

radioactivity by counting ionizing particles. Eight X ray sources were found and scientist detected
radio emissions from Cygnus X 1. A massive hidden companion was found and that was considered
the first black hole to be discovered. (6) We have a lot of evidence to prove that supermassive black
holes exist in galaxies. Scientist found evidence of a supermassive black hole in the center of the
Milky Way, the galaxy NGC 4258, galaxy M87, and several more. Scientist verified the existence of
black holes by studying the speed of the clouds of gas orbiting the galaxy regions. In 1994, the Hubble
space telescope measured an unseen object that had an estimated mass of about 3 billion times the
mass of the sun in our solar system. The unseen object was located in the center of the galaxy M87.
Scientist measured the mass of the object through the motion of the object whirling around the center.

are a massive and extremely remote celestial object that emits large amounts of energy. They are also
one of the brightest objects in the universe. They are typically more than 100 times brighter than the

27. Vygotsky s Theory Of Human Development
Lev Vygotsky was an educator and a theorist known primarily for his sociocultural theory. Vygotsky
developed the sociocultural theory, which is the theory of human development through social and
cultural influences (Aimin, 2013), during the 1920 s 30 s. One of Vygotsky s focuses was the concept
of the zone of proximal development (ZPD), which is the idea of a child being appropriately
challenged, this will be discussed further on. His theory stemmed from how children s learning is
impacted greatly through guidance of peers, cultural relations (language), social interactions, teachers
and any other adult figure in their environment. In the last 10 15 years, teachers, caregivers, and
educators have been attending more to Vygotsky s theory and his concept of the zone of proximal
development, because his work impacts how children learn in their optimal environment (Trawick
Smith, 2015). Vygotsky s sociocultural theory will be discussed through historical insight, explanation
of the theory itself, how sociocultural and society relate to each other, and how the theory is applied in
the educational society.
[Historical information]
When Vygotsky died in 1934 there were still parts of the theory that needed to be researched on and
expanded upon, which was left in the hands of other theoreticians (Wang, Bruce, Hughes 2011). On

28. Dichotomy In Rear Window
Alfred Hitchcock once defined his film Rear Window (Hitchcock, 1954), as the story of a man who
cannot move and looks through a window, about what he sees and how he reacts to it (Truffaut, 1986).
In addition, Hitchcock constructs the character of the protagonist of the film, Jeff (James Steward), not
only by using cinematographic devices to show how Jeff interprets what he sees and his own life, but
also stabilising a dichotomy between what he looks at and what he lives.
At the beginning of the film, a camera movement reveals Jeff´s profession and why he is immobilized
in a wheel chair. He is a photographer, interested in looking at other´s lives; consequently, he could be
described as a voyeur. Across a very limited space the courtyard ... Show more content on

For those reasons, even when he is in a sweet moment with Lisa in his arms, he prefers looking at the
outside of his apartment, and even he feels more sexual attraction towards Miss. Torso (Georgine
Darcy) through the window than towards Lisa, who is in his arms or more explicit, offering herself in
his sofa. Lisa as Thorvald at the end, represents a menace and when he feels threatened, does not
hesitate to take his binoculars (or even the flash), as the only way to prevent danger.
To sum up, Hitchcock uses a film as Rear window to construct an allegory between reality and fiction.
The end of the film is ambiguous because although Jeff chooses real life, as he presents his back to the
window and to the outside, the clash between reality and fiction has a price, if you choose fiction
probably, you could lose to live in a real society, but if you choose reality, you could lose your
identity, as Jeff. So, inside this film, there is not only one crime, but also other metaphoric murdered:

Focal stimuli immediately confronts the adaptive system. Contextual stimuli or background stimuli is

traits which may be relevant but effects are indeterminate and therefore cannot be validated. Nursing
According to Roy, the Nurse using the Nursing Process, promotes adaptation responses during health

Goals, mutually agreed on and prioritized, are proposed to meet the global goals of: survival/growth
and promotion/reproduction of race/society/attaining full potential or mastery of self. The nurse uses
activities to increase adaptive and decrease ineffective responses during illness and health. These
activities alter or manipulate the client s focal, contextual and residual stimuli and expand his

Ever since her suicide Sylvia Plath has become a well known female author, her most famous piece of
work being The Bell Jar. While the book has rose in popularity many argue that the sum of the
reputation that the book holds is because of the story behind the author, and her own suicide. Yet,
those who argue this fail to see how Plath is a revolutionary author for her time, through this piece of

having a feminist standpoint and on reaching insanity.
Throughout the novel, Plath maintains the theme of feminism, making her main character, Esther, a

This was a very long stretch of beach near the Cherbourg peninsula, bordered by Utah Beach and Gold
Beach. The 1st and 29th American infantry divisions landed here on June 6, 1944 at approximately
6.30 A.M. The landscape of the beach and surrounding area made it easy to defend, but very difficult
to attack. Facing the shore were large cliffs with multiple machine gun emplacements and bunkers
looking down towards it. Between the bunkers was barely any cover for the soldiers. This brings up
the question: Why did the Allies attack it? There are many reasons. First, the Allies needed a way to
link up Utah to Gold and the rest of the British sector. Utah was needed for the capture of Cherbourg,
and Gold was needed to put the Mulberry harbor in place. If these did not get linked to each other, the
soldiers on each front wouldn t be able to communicate effectively. Second, the Allied needed to make
sure the Germans couldn t regroup and counterattack. A counterattack at that stage would be terrible
for the Allies because they had not landed much supplies yet and had sustained a lot of casualties.
Taking Omaha would prevent this from happening. Finally, Omaha covered the most land. This was
essential for capturing the most possible towns, cities, and communication hubs. In spite of all the

This is feared to possibly lead towards cultural homogenisation, as member countries begin to lose

that this social grouping allows for a more peaceful situation between all member countries, this was
especially true following World War 2; which in itself lead to the creation of the EU. As well as
arguing that the EU allows for more accessible travel, allowing European citizens to discover different
cultures and live in better harmony.
Another well know grouping is NAFTA, a free trade agreement created in 1994 between the United
States, Canada and Mexico. This created one of the largest free trade areas of the world. Its success

not, what questions do you think you will ask yourself, if any? I would ask him the questions because
I want to know if he believes people ask the same questions when they are dying, or does it depend on
how they have lived their lives. Does Tolstoy think the same as Hudspith when it comes to his views
of death: Time, then, may be seen as a key element in Tolstoy s view of immortality; this has
implications, as we shall see, for characters perceptions of time in his novels, their attitudes to their
past, their present, their future and inevitable death? I would then ask him if he even thought he would
influence someone as religiously influential as Gandhi (Puchner et al. 1439; 1). I just find it amazing
that he inspired someone who has inspired millions. I would then ask what he thinks of the current
violence in the world i.e. police brutality of racial groups and our current problems. I would ask
Faulkner, Why did you criticize Southern hypocrisy and culture? I think by getting the answer to this

The past plays a big part in the future when it comes to dividends, if there has been a strong growth in
dividends in the past then future dividend growth is predicted signaling a strong bottom line and
profits for the company.
Advantages of the DDM are that it is frequently used when calculating share prices, due to it being
easily taught and its simplicity making it easy to understand. DDM also has the ability to give value to
a company s stock, disregarding the current market making it easy to compare across different
companies and industries big or small. Another advantage is the models rely firmly on theory and also
its ability to stay consistent over the lifetime of the company.
Disadvantages of the DDM include the model itself not appreciating certain factors such as customer
and brand loyalty and the ownership of intangible assets. Factors that are vital towards the success
value of a company. Another disadvantage is the DDM being highly dependent on the assumption of
the company s growth in dividends believing that it s rate is stable and known. DDM states the fact
that stock prices are fragile to the chosen growth rate of dividends, eliminating the ability for the rate
to surpass the cost of equity, which in some cases isn t always

In this case, the consumer always purchases the cheaper of the two goods (assuming a one for one
tradeoff). If the price of orange juice is less than the price of apple juice, the consumer will purchase
only orange juice and the price consumption curve will lie along the orange juice axis of the graph
(from point F to the right). [pic] If apple juice is cheaper, the consumer will purchase only apple juice
and the price consumption curve will be on the apple juice axis (above point E). If the two goods have
the same price, the consumer will be indifferent between the two; the price consumption curve will
coincide with the indifference curve (between E and F). Assuming that the price of orange juice is less
than the price of apple juice, the consumer will maximize her utility by consuming only orange juice.
As income varies, only the amount of orange juice varies. Thus, the income consumption curve will be

would lie on the apple juice axis. [pic] 4. b. Left shoes and right shoes are perfect complements. Draw

Life can at times seem bad, even in the lives of some of the most prestigious, rich, popular people in
the world. Bad hair, lack of sleep, abundance of homework, and an absence of money have the
tendency to put a damper on some people s days, among other things. Too many times, though, in
today s society things are taken for granted. Imagine not having a place to sleep, having no means of
education, or having all hard earned funds taken by the government, not even leaving enough to feed
the family. This is how it was for Englanders in the 1800s. The condition of the working class in
19thcentury England was, without a doubt, disgusting and miserable. The circumstances were

and raising ideas on how to bring reform. Engels friend and life long work partner Karl Marx in 1844

crafted the Communist Manifesto, among other things. The Communist Manifesto, published in
February of 1848, attempts to explain the goals of Communism, Marx s and Engel s solution to the
struggles and exploitations of each class by the other classes. This work is undoubtedly the most
influential piece produced by these two revolutionists. Another collaboration by Engels with Marx
include the development of the International Workingmen s Association. Frederick Engels produced a
few other revolutionary pieces including the major works Anti Dyriring in 1878 and The Origin of the
Family, Private Property, and the State in 1884. After Marx s death in March of 1883, Engels devoted

attainable in this world, Wells explores what life would be like if peace and equality was normal. The
Eloi and Morlocks are used to represent his ideas, and although they have differences, they are both
given the chance to become better. H.G. Wells manages to incorporate a sense of equality throughout
his novel The Time Machine.
H.G. Wells leaves the characters nameless in order to create a sense of equality among them. The very
first thing Wells does is introduce the characters, because without them, there would be no audience to
tell the story to. The characters are important to the novel, yet most of them remain nameless. They

Wells portrays a manipulative relationship between the Eloi and the Morlocks. The Eloi abused their
power and in return, the Morlocks took it over. Starting in chapter five and throughout the rest of the
novel, we see the hostility of the two groups. The Eloi hate the dark because of the Morlocks. The
Morlocks terrorize and eat the Eloi as portrayed by the Time Traveller. Upon finding this out, the Time
Traveller jumps to the conclusion that the Morlocks are bad. In fact, the Eloi had it coming to them,
they dealt a dirty blow and they received a bigger one. Wells used his knowledge to interpret what
would happen if one group was given the upper hand for too long. It s only natural for the Morlocks to
retaliate, and this nature is why equality is never attainable. Although the two groups are depicted as
enemies, they are equal in certain ways. Both groups were given a chance to excel and it happened at
different times. The Morlocks were able to assess the situation, and given there opportunistic origins,
were able to make the best of it. Neither group is better than each other, but neither group is worse
either. This equality between them, although fleeting, depicts a surreal, almost utopian,

Some of these false beliefs are that 12 Step programs are Cults, they are for old people, they are
religious, they brainwash people, sometimes they make you want to drink or use after going to a
meeting. These notions are false and inaccurate. It is usually individuals that have gone to the
meetings for a short amount of time and they are unable to sustain consistency. These individuals do
not get involved in service and they often return to using drugs or drinking again due to not being
done, with using substances. In the therapy interaction, these misconceptions must be heard by the
therapist and given ample time in counseling to talk about and unpacked, for further qualification.
This may take time and patients to hear these feelings and to process with the client. In facilitating
effective treatment while counseling, it is imperative that a person be listened to and validated for their
feelings. It is the counselor s job to find an opening to interject and challenge the client to see how
thorough they were in their attempt to gain sobriety. Usually in doing this, the clinician is able to
allow the client to see some of the half measures they took at these past attempts and failures. In the

Kingsolver spends an abundance of both Leah and Rachel s narrations of detailing the horrors of the
hunt. In this selection, sentences like Birds hit the wall of fire and lit like bottle rockets portray the
true chaos of the event. In this instance, Leah s point of view is useful for descriptions of hunt because
she fought right in the middle of it. Leah is surrounded by the fire crackling and the antelopes who did
not leap gracefully. Her intimate first person point of view through the use of details enhances the
reader s understanding of the insanity of the event. In addition, the brutality of the event as given by
gruesome details like dark blood leaked from its delicate black mouth characterizes the population of
the whole in Kilanga as having almost animalistic qualities. Rachel extrapolates on this point later, but

According to the Herald Sun a humane cull is far preferable to a slow death through starvation. It is
more inhumane to condemn these animals to a slow and painful death, than to control the Kangaroo
population in a way that is quick and causes minimal pain.
During a Queensland drought, it was reported by the ABC that a council worker, Chad McLachlan
would drag out roos every morning from underneath buildings, machines or other recreation centres,
due to starvation. Overpopulation of Kangaroos means that they won t have enough bush land to live
on, therefore many Kangaroos will starve to death in a slow manner. Now that is cruel.
The process of becoming a Kangaroo harvester is a lengthy one. The harvesters must undergo training
which is followed by a license. They must adhere to the strict guidelines laid out in the Federal
Government document Code of Practice for the Humane Shooting of Kangaroos , which was created
by the help of the RSPCA.
