...* * * While looking at these two master pieces, I can see that both artist used a similar art style to represent night and day. With van Gough's I have always liked the way the darker colors show how the stars can come out in the night sky. LeWitt's art work I personally have never seen but the he uses the same types of color while staying true with the visual design of van Gough. The difference between the two pieces is that the lines are completely making the flow and the artist original to the other. van Gough's Starry Night uses the curve of the lines to bring the stars to live as balls of light,, like what people thought they were back then. LeWitt's shows us with the lines coming from the sun, how hot that particular day was for that gentleman to work out side in the field. With the lines in either curved or straight people can see the aspects of how differently each artwork can be. I do not believe that the artists can swap in the linage of the other and get the same effect they were going for. * * * * * This piece of artwork shows how people in higher society in Europe lived back then. With the numerous children in fancy clothes, a large hallway with many pieces of artwork on the walls this was living. We can only imagine what the artist is painting in the artwork but I do believe that they are doing a family portrait of the children. Velazquez brought shadows and light into this piece to bring out hoe formal a...

...Juvenile Crime Paper Kenyetta Steele CJS/200 June 29, 2014 Richards Daniels A juvenile court is a tribunal having special authority to try and pass judgment’s for crimes Committed by children or adolescents who have not attained the age of majority. In most modern Legal systems, children and adolescents who commit a crime are treated differently from legal adults who have committed the same crime. A juvenile court may hear juvenile cases ranging from truancy to drug dependency issues. The parents or guardians of juveniles are usually required to appear and participate in the disposition of their child case. Disposition can include the parents or guardian being fined for not getting their child to school as required. Juvenile cases are handled differently than adult criminal cases. Instead of criminal district or county court, juvenile cases are heard by a juvenile court judge. There are many differences exist between the adult and juvenile court systems. At its core, the adult court system focuses on deterrence and justice as the rationale for prosecuting offenders whereas the juvenile system commits to rehabilitating delinquent youths into upstanding...

There are also tests in the world of psychology, including testing in schools and the workplace. Psychological testing will be defined, with a few different varying descriptions from a few sources, since there is not just one definition for this type of test. The major categories of tests will be described and the major uses and users of these tests will be identified. The concepts of reliability and validity will be compared and contrasted, and how they both impact the field of psychological testing will be discussed. Definition of the term “test” “The glossary of the authoritative Standards for Educational and Psychology Tests,” according to our textbook, “says that a test is an evaluative device or procedure in which a sample of an examinee’s behavior in a specified domain is obtained and subsequently evaluated and scored using a standardized process,” (Hogan, 2007, p. 12). The same source also says that psychological testing is defined as “any procedure that involves the use of tests or inventories to assess particular psychological characteristics of an individual, (Hogan, 2007, p. 12).

...While conducting a Vertical and Horizontal analysis of our financial statements along with my ratio calculations I have found that our company Berry’s Bug Busters did not do as well in some areas as in the previous 2007 year but the company is still in a really good position. As well as Berry’s Bug Busters is not relying on debt financing as much as it once did. Among the three ratios conducted Liquidity, Profitability, and Solvency the users who would be most interested in these would be a short term creditor, a long term creditor, and stock holders. The short term creditor an example would be a bank is interested in the liquidity ratio “The liquidity of the borrower is extremely important in evaluating the safety of a loan” (Weygandt, Kimmel, & Kieso, 2010, p. 676). According to Weygandt, Kimmel, and Kieso (2010), While long term creditors and short term creditors both have interest in profitability ratios and solvency ratios either to see the companies ability to survive over a long period of time or to see the likelihood of growth in stocks and dividends (p 676). Liquidity Ratios The Liquidity ratios reveal that the company paid off its liabilities better in this past year than in 2007 our current ratio went up by 2.42 from 2007 when it was 3.57 to 2008 where it was 5.99. Along with the current ratio the acid test ratio also went up by 2.31 from 2007 where it was 3.01 to 2008 which came to 5.32. Although we see a growth through these set of numbers our companies...

...SAP Eligibility Rules Jeanine Jones University of Phoenix HSM/240 December 10, 2013 In an organization, eligibility rules are so important because they allow clients to receive benefits and services. Eligibility rules seek the resources that are available to the clients and ration them so that people can learn and benefit from resources. Sometimes when the eligibility rules are not correctly propositioned, people will not even the available resources. Decisions need to be made and whether a person qualifies for assistance falls between guidelines that are set into place for the greater good of the clients. The Substance Abuse Program is an important organization whose eligibility rules matter the most because the inmates have already been stripped of all of their rights. The main eligibility process for the Substance Abuse Program is through Judicial Decision. Because the Substance Abuse program is only offered to incarcerated inmates and this opportunity is handed down by a judicial ruling. Inmates may plead their case to the court, and in many instances they know that being accepted into the program means reduced sentencing. Instead of focusing on getting out of custody to return to the same habits, inmates should really appreciate the special program that they are limited to. Judicial decisions are important because each ruling is different. The Substance Abuse Program has been around through the correction facility for a while and there are certain...

...Macy’s: Executive Summary Macy’s, Inc. Macy’s, Inc. is known as the one of the leading retail corporations worldwide. It offers its customers a wide range of products including clothing, footwear, jewelry, beauty products, and even home décor. Macy’s has opened more than 800 stores across the U.S. and reported fiscal year (FY) 2009 sales of $23.5 billion. Although Macy’s is a prominent retailer today, their success had to start somewhere. In this summary we will take a glance at Macy’s history as well as their prior and current financial information. Brief History of Macy’s, Inc. Before Macy’s, Inc became a household name Rowland H. Macy, the founder of Macy’s Inc., started a dry-goods store in 1851 in Haverhill, Massachusetts where he made $11.06 on its first day. Since then, R.H. went through his share of retail failures and various store relocations. It was not until 1877, when R.H. Macy & Co. started accumulating its high sales, that it made its mark as a retail giant. For example, Macy’s made business history when they were the first to promote a woman in an executive position. Macy’s was also the first to hire an in-store Santa Claus. In 1924, upon the completion of the new 7th Avenue addition, Macy’s Herald Square became known as the “World’s Largest Store” with more than one million square feet (Macy’s, Inc., 2010). In addition, the company also produces their annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and Fourth of July fireworks display that fills the hearts...

...COMM/215 Does the Economy Affect Our Children Education? During this study I get to understand how the economy is affecting the education and the future of the young generation, which includes our children. It also affects the consumers and freedom to spend without feeling fear of struggle in a short and long term. The economic challenges are different in all the districts and states, as strategies for collective bargaining. Our children of all ages will be affected, and they will be obligated to work to pay their own education while attending college if they if we want them to have the education our children deserve. Us, parents will have to work more to afford the costs of our children’s education, during our children are in primary and secondary schools. I learned what is the superintendents’ job and what they need to do to improve our children’s education. What strategies they will use for our benefit (the benefit of the community). The economy could recover eventually, but it could take more than four years. This Depression has happened before in Washington State. I believe that if they could recover back then we could see an improvement again. We want excellent schools for our children, and they could be provided with a good education for the children to be successful in life. According to Sims (2004) “As members of a community, we want a high-quality school system so that we can attract and develop new businesses. As citizens, we want our nation to have a world-class...
