One of the details examined were the child rearing practices which are especially critical in the development of one’s morals and beliefs (2006). But what plays the biggest hand in orienting someone’s identity is their main cultural group that they distinguish themselves with, and for me that is my religion Sikhism. Although my main cultural group does not completely align with the particular dominant group of the society in which I happen to live in, I believe that Sikhism is seen as a subculture in this society. As explained by Gordon Marshall, a dominant culture is one that is able, through economic or political power, impose its values, language, and ways of behaving on a subordinate culture or cultures (1998). Since the European influence on this territory Canada has been more influenced by Christianity, and as immigration loosened its hold on racial barriers we saw multiculturalism. These new religions then form what we call subcultures. Sikhism would be a dominant religion where I originate from, but in Canada and this society...

...in middle adulthood. She reminded me of one of my neighbors back home in Brooklyn, NY. As I approached the mat I noticed that Ms. Janice was feeding Matt and Ms. Carol was changing Josh's diaper. There were two infants, Travis and Alisha, laying on the mat while another, Corey, was sleeping in his crib. I began playing with Alisha. Alisha and I played together the entire time that I volunteered. We played with almost all of the toys on the shelf. We mostly played with this ball that rattled whenever you shook it. I would toss the ball around and Alisha would try to grab it. I was surprised at how well she could keep up with the ball. She knew exactly where to reach each time I hid it from her. I concluded that Alisha was good at finding the ball because the rattling noise helped with sound localization. In Developmental Psychology I learned that infants auditory perception is adequate even from birth. More specifically, by the age of one their sound localization abilities reach adult level. Hence, Alisha was able to find the ball because as an eight month old her sound localization capabilities are good and these abilities permitted her to find the ball based on pinpointing the direction of the rattling sound. As I previously stated, Alisha and I played the whole time. The only time that we stopped playing was when I had to use the rest room. My trip to the bathroom was interesting because I came across an adorable painting. The painting was of an African American father...

I shut my eyes, and my mind drifts away into the wonders of this spectacular summer night. I feel a chilly rush glide through the room as I fall asleep. The next morning I wake up to a cool breeze bursting through the room and the sounds of birds chirping away. “Wake up girls, we leave in five minutes! We don’t want to be late for the singing steps!” cheerfully says our counselor, Peach. “Just five more minutes.” I groan in my thoughts. Sabrina, Phoebe, Alisha, Eureka and I all sleep soundly until we get waken up. Alisha, Eureka, and I still wanted to sleep for about 5 more years, but I couldn’t wait to see my other friends at breakfast.

It was owned by the Chauhan family of Vile Parle, Mumbai. The Parle brand became well known in India following the success of products such as theParle-G biscuits and Thums Up soft drink. The original Parle company was split into three separate companies owned by the different factions of the original Chauhan family:[6] Parle Products, led by Vijay, Sharad and Anup Chauhan (owner of the brands Parle-G, Melody, Mango Bite, Poppins, Monaco and KrackJack) Parle Agro, led by Prakash Chauhan and his daughters Schauna, Alisha and Nadia (owner of the brands such as Frooti and Appy) Parle Bisleri, led by Ramesh Chauhan All three companies continue to use the family trademark name "Parle".

Frooti, the first product rolled out of Parle Agro in 1985, became the largest selling mango drink in India.[7] Separation from the parent company The original Parle group was amicably segregated into three non-competing businesses. But a dispute over the use of "Parle" brand arose, when Parle Agro diversified into the confectionary business, thus becoming a competitor to Parle Products. In February...

...Explain how Anscombe and MacIntyre developed Aristotle’s ‘Virtue Theory’. [30 marks] Aristotle’s ‘Virtue Theory’ is an ethical theory that emphasizes on an individual’s character as a key element of ethical thinking, rather than rules about the acts themselves (deontology) or their consequences (consequentialism). Thus making ‘Virtue Ethics’ and deontic ethical theory. Both Elizabeth Anscombe and Alasdair MacIntyre believed that modern ethical studies have lost their ways. The philosophers felt that they were too concerned with normative rules and this doesn’t help to fill the moral vacuum of society. And that ‘Virtue Ethics’ was the only solution to the moral vacuum in society. According to Anscombe, the best way to fill this moral vacuum is to chart our moral virtues. Virtues help ordinary people be moral and must be based on good will; similarly to Aquinas’ internal vs external goods idea in Natural Law. Anscombe believed that society needed the return of Virtue Ethics because she was critical of deontological ethics as she felt they had become outdated. She was also critical of teleological ethics as she believes the end doesn’t justify the means, which we can understand from when she says, “The concepts of obligation, and duty – moral ‘ought’, ought to be jettisoned.” In 1981, MacIntyre wrote a book titled ‘After Virtue’ in which he traces he history of ‘Virtue Ethics’ and attempts to establish a system of the ethical theory appropriate for the modern age. He...
