This really dictates that the creator or inventor who uses preexisting goods from the environment in order to create or to invent should benefit from the good that he or she has provided to society. In other words, there is a basic understanding that if I’m going to put my labor into some endeavor, then I ought to have some payment—some fruit, some benefit—back from that labor, because I am adding to the greater social good. | | - 3 | Opening Question | Insert Opening Question to display on the screen What impact, does the “personhood” theory have on intellectual property? | Insert audio text here (topic...

...then evening and morning came and that was the first day of creation. Now, its 24 hours in a day and all God did was say, “Let there be light,” I wonder what He did for 23 hours 59mins and 50secs? Then He said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water”, and it happened and he called that vault heaven, and evening and morning came again and that was considered the second day of His creation. See, what is this man doing with the rest of His day? So I’m guessing the next day is the third day? God then goes on to say, “let the waters under heaven be gathered into one place, so that dry land may appear”, and following He said, “Let the earth produce fresh growth, let there be on earth plants bearing seed, fruit trees bearing fruit each with seed according to its kind”, and apparently all that He said appeared. Then evening and morning came around yet again and day three was complete. About time He says more than one thing, but I’m still wondering what He does with the rest of the day. Going into day four of God’s creation, He commands that there be lights in the vault, which is now considered heaven, to separate day from night and request that they serve as signs for both festivals and...

...Btsisi Culture William Carson ANT 101 Jennifer Hotzman December 19, 2012 Btsisi Culture Kinship involves how people classify each other, the rules that affect people's behavior, and people's actual behavior. Among horticultural communities, the extended family, a family composed of at least three generations including grandparents, parents, and children, and possibly married siblings and their spouses and children is most common and adaptive. The extended family has to be large because they need to produce more adult labor for building and farming. If the extended family is not large enough to successfully accomplish the labor tasks larger kin groups, called descent groups, are required. Descent groups are very common in horticultural societies. Lineage is an extended family who can trace their kin relationship through blood and marriage ties to an actual, known ancestor. Descent groups can be organized into clans. Clans are people who come from an actual or putative genealogical connection to an unknown ancestor and might share a name. Clans are called patriclans or matriclans depending on if it is based on the father's or the mother's line. Descent groups determine rights to property, including land, animals, hunting and fishing territories, and even knowledge. A family can gain access to land for cultivation based on membership in a descent group. When Btsisi marry, the bride and groom are from different villages. After the marriage the couple...

...going to finish all of the food they are presented. No human is capable of eating that amount of food.So why do we use time resources and energy to produce large portions of food just to dump every wasted plate down the garbage chute? Americans struggle immensely with food waste, and it’s not just food. When you think of all the food being wasted don’t think so shallow; someone's unfinished plate being dumped into the trash. Think resources, time, energy, and the obvious-- food. Consumers have more to think about when it comes to the waste they cause when they are dealing with our food sources. Think of a that apple that you put on your plate, and later decided you didn’t want so you tossed it. You didn’t just waste an apple. You wasted soil. You wasted a seed. You wasted...

...Janice Wegman M. Green English 151 Feb. 7, 2012 HOW TO PLANT A GARDEN Have you ever gotten frustrated at the grocery store over the prices of fresh fruit and vegetables? Or wish you knew how to save some money on your food bill? Well I’m going to share with you my answer to these issues, plant a garden. You can choose what plants you put in your garden so you can have your favorite fresh fruits and vegetables, even when they are not in season and not have to pay those high prices for them. First you need to pick the best spot for your garden, pick a spot that gets a lot of sunlight, the more hours of sunlight the better for your garden. Second make a list of what fruits and vegetables you want to put in your garden and how many. For example if you really like fresh green beans, you might want to plant more of them than something you will not use as much of say like tomatoes. Make a diagram of your garden and plan which plants are getting planted where in your garden, keeping in mind that you do not want to plant vine plants such as watermelons next to your tomatoes plants as to vine plants will overtake standing plants. Third you need to prepare the land by tilling. Tilling is when you turn up the ground. Years ago this was done with tool called a hoe; this required a lot of back breaking labor. Today there are tools called tillers which make the work much easier and faster. Tilling will allow the ground to get more oxygen and also is a good way to kill...

...program, the markets on the institution’s property aid in “providing easy and convenient access to fresh, locally grown produce” (Harris et al, 2012, p. 344). This claim comes from the results of a dot survey that the FTI constructed. The dot survey asked farmer’s market consumers a series of questions regarding their diet ever since the store appeared. The results indicate that 57% of consumers increased their consumption of fruits and vegetables because of the easily-accessed market (Harris et al, 2012, p. 344). If the survey was accurate, FTI programs can potentially be nutritionally beneficial on a larger scale. On the other hand, the Farm to School programs have completed little research on the impact of the program on the diets of school children. Eleven studies and assessments were created with the purpose of discovering the effects of FTS programs on students at school. These studies were not peer-reviewed. Keeping in mind the results are not necessarily precise, 10 of 11 programs that were evaluated “reported increased purchase or intake of fruits and vegetables by students following the incorporation of farm produce into school” (Harris et al, 2012, p....

...we connect with now. This divergence from the former moral economy served to make the United States actually less democratic, forever establishing an upper class of owners and forming social roles about race, class, gender and family that encouraged inequality and persist today. This establishment of inequality is exemplified in the images of work attached to the prompt, and show how these roles were seen and formed within the culture. The image of the Erie Canal Workers shows the change from an earlier ideal of American life and labor, where ones labor was to be used to work and cultivate your own land to sustain your own living. This image of the Erie Canal workers shows the exact opposite of this self owned concept for labor. All of these men are essentially being used as machines, good for nothing but labor, to work and make use of the land owned by someone else, for someone else's profit. The fruits of their labor would not be actual fruits as they might previously have been, but a monetary amount, to be budgeted as best as possible to buy things from other people. This dependence on others and this early establishment of a working class. Tocqueville connects with this idea when he discusses the tyranny of the majority, “within a democracy organized as the United States, only one power is encountered, only one source of strength and success, with nothing outside them[1].” This describes the amount of power in the hands of the...

...drawing→Manufacturing→Shipping/delivering→After sale service. At class, I was thinking the high price of buying a yacht so I raised a question “The yacht price is high, is the payment term important for your company? What is the payment term between you and your most customers? Also compare to your western customers, is there any difficulty to negotiate the payment term with Chinese as you now will be focusing your new market in China? ” James Fwu indicates that pay in advance is very important. Normally when signing the sales contract, 10% deposit is required. And each step of manufacturing the yacht will require 10% payment as well. Previously, most customers will agree on this payment, however, as globally bad economy which makes the negotiation becomes harder. Some customers decline to pay after they indeed see the finished product. Horizon will try to insist the 10% advanced payment because each yacht’s high cost relating to investors fund, not Horizon group only. We need to be responsible to our investors. The 2nd question I raised “You mentioned the shipping/delivering yachts need to be very careful and it requires high insurance fee, how is the shipping term to ship your yachts? FOB/ IF/Others? Does this matter your business a lot? Also for the Super Yacht & Gigo Yacht, will you go by normal shipping? Or you will sail the yacht to your customers directly? I am wondering how you ship such a huge yacht overseas." James Fwu replied that Horizon set delivery term as FAS (free alone side) as standard, and...

...and developmental delay. It is said that our food preferences re linked to foods we enjoyed during childhood. Hence children should be given a wide range of healthy food, especially fruits and vegetables, so that they develop a taste for them. Below are strategies to encourage healthy eating: Weaning: Healthy food habits are developed at the earliest age and as early as when they are weaned of breast/bottle milk. Children should be given wide range of fruits and vegetables as this introduces them to different textures and tastes. Use meal and snack times as teachable moments to help even the youngest children make wise food choices. Go to the source: Teach kids where their food comes from. Rather than limiting yourself to the weekly supermarket run, take your family to a local farmer’s market (or to the farm itself) and meet the people who grow the food. Picking berries from a vine can help nurture a lifelong love of good eating and environmental stewardship. Visiting a dairy farm can teach children where their milk comes from (and why we should care about what goes in it). Planting tomatoes and melons in the garden may tempt a child to try the fruits of her labor. Colour: It has been shown that children eat more healthily if they are given a wide range of foods of different colours, especially fruits and vegetables. Freedom of choice and self-service: Kids want to have it their way. They feel empowered when they are allowed to do things themselves. When they are allowed to choose...

...Breathing, in out, counting one… two… three…, feeling your heart pounding in your ears, hearing your feet hit the pavement boom… boom…, sweat pouring from your forehead, clothes sticking to your skin. Why are you out here? Is this fun, are you getting a reward, is it for a good cause, did your friend ask you to do it with them? What is motivating you to run right now? The answers lead you to define if you are being motivated extrinsically or intrinsically. These same questions can be asked when figuring out what motivates people in the workplace. Certain types of companies prefer if you are more of one motivational type than the other. I’ve seen the benefits of both extrinsic and intrinsic rewards working for my children in my in-home-daycare. There are different types of companies and for these companies they are looking for employees who are motivated either extrinsically or intrinsically. A company who is looking predominantly at extrinsically motivated employees is typically a company with very specific rules and regulations. A company like this knows that this employee is motivated by receiving some type of reward, be it praise or some form of an incentive, or avoid punishments by following the specific rules and regulations. If a company is concerned about labor costs, or being innovative they would be seeking out an employee who is more intrinsically motivated. An intrinsically motivated employee doesn’t need the ego boost or the reward to feel fulfilled with the job...
