...people are looked as bad individual and is label as outlaws while those with powers and authority are treated and praised as gods. Unbalance society such as this are perfect examples of why many turns to thieves. Focusing my essay on how outlaws can still be consider heroic I base my essay on a particular hero who fought for revenge while shedding light and roofing the poor. For my fictional outlaw I decided to go with the protagonist of a Korean drama known as Iljimae. In the film, Geom who at a very young age witnesses the assassination of his biological father and later takes on the quest of seeking revenge for the death to his father. The truth behind Iljimae was originally base off of a comic strip about a hero who rose to save the people from depression and hardship during the Joseon Dynasty. Geom portrays the ideal heroic trait because of his pure loving heart for the poor and his bravery to withstand hardship through his journey for revenge. And sadly just like how most great heroes are made, Geom was not born a hero but was forced to become a heroism figure because of corruption and unstable government officials. Dating back to the Joseon Dynasty, lives of many was in a complete mess. Taxes where increasingly high and the income was a complete opposite. Those with power of so called born into that position ran the daily job of collecting taxes and basically cheated their way to the top. Referencing from an article by Kyung Moon Hwang he describes these individuals as “another...

With the introduction of personal computers, design programs began employing a more user-friendly approach Designing process: The main aspects of the design process are: (1).Aeroodynamics: Is the branch of fluid dynamicswhich deals with studing the motion of the air,particularly when it interacts with the solid object such as aeroplane wing. (2).Propulsion Aircraft propulsion may be achieved by specially designed aircraft engines, adapted auto, motorcycle or snowmobile engines, electric engines or even human mu scle power. The main parameters of engine design are: • Maximum engine thrust available • Fuel con sumption • Engine mass • Engin e geom etry The thrust provided by the engine must balance the drag at cruise speed and be greater than the drag toa llow acceleration in cruise speed and need more engine efficiency. High-performance fighter jets need very high acceleration and therefore have very high thrust requirements.[ (3).Controls A conventional aircraft flight an aircraft's direction in flight. (4).Mass The weight of the aircraft is the common factor that links all aspects of aircraft design such as aerodynamics, structure, and propulsion together.

It has therefore become imperative that proper measures should be put in place to ensure that no student signs for another. It has been observed that at Christian Service University College lecturers sometimes give the attendance book to students to sign without actually supervising them to see whether the right student is signing or making sure that no student signs for another. Moreover, if a lecturer wants to supervise the signing of the attendance book to make sure that the right student is signing and no student signs for a friend then the lecturer may end up by wasting a significant amount of the lecture period on the signing supervision. Furthermore, in the larger classes lecturers sometimes use their own ideology and principles to award the attendance...

...Pablo Fernandez IESE Business School, University of Navarra Ch 12 Equity Premium: Historical, Expected, Required and Implied Equity Premium: Historical, Expected, Required and Implied Pablo Fernandez Professor of Finance. IESE Business School, University of Navarra Camino del Cerro del Aguila 3. 28023 Madrid, Spain e-mail: fernandezpa@iese.edu January 29, 2013 The equity premium designates four different concepts: Historical Equity Premium (HEP); Expected Equity Premium (EEP); Required Equity Premium (REP); and Implied Equity Premium (IEP). We highlight the confusing message in the literature regarding the equity premium and its evolution. The confusion arises from not distinguishing among the four concepts and from not recognizing that although the HEP is equal for all investors, the REP, the EEP and the IEP differ for different investors. A unique IEP requires assuming homogeneous expectations for the expected growth (g), but we show that there are several pairs (IEP, g) that satisfy current prices. We claim that different investors have different REPs and that it is impossible to determine the REP for the market as a whole, because it does not exist. We also investigate the relationship between (IEP – g) and the risk free rate. There is a kind of schizophrenic approach to valuation: while all authors admit different expectations of equity cash flows, most authors look for a unique discount rate. It seems as if the expectations of equity cash flows are formed in a...

...SIGNALIZATION Alf Badge., P.E. Senior Engineer Post-Buckley-Schuh-Jernigan, Inc Charlotte, North Carolina Charles V. Zegeer, P.E. Associate Director of Roadway Studies Highway Safety Research Center University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, North Carolina FIGURE 5-1 Pedestrian signal displays.' Traffic Signals Traffic signals are intended to assign the right-of-way to vehicular and pedestrian traffic. When installed appropriately, traffic signals can provide many benefits, including the interruption of heavy volumes of motor vehicles where there are insufficient gaps in motor vehicle traffic for pedestrians to cross safely at intersections or midblock locations. Unwarranted or improperly used traffic sig-nals can cause excessive delay for pedestrians and motor vehicles, signal disobedience, and an increase in certain accident types. Even where warranted, traffic signal installations commonly result fn an increase in rear-end and total accidents, with a corresponding reduction in more severe right-angle acci-dents. The effect of traffic signal installations on pedestrian accidents is not well known, but different locational characteristics of the sites are important factors in the accident experience at signals.° While many traffic signals include only the green, yellow, and red signal faces, a variety of signal lens faces may be used, depending on needed signal phasing. Studies have suggested, however, that highly-com-plex, multiphase signals often result in con-fusion...

Gaussian kernel smoothing, which weights neighboring observations according to their 3D Euclidean distance, has been widely used in 3D brain images to increase the signal-to-noise ratio. When the observations lie on a convoluted brain surface, however, it is more natural to assign the weights based on the geodesic distance along the surface. We therefore develop a framework for geodesic distance-based kernel smoothing and ...

...Notes on Probability Peter J. Cameron ii Preface Here are the course lecture notes for the course MAS108, Probability I, at Queen Mary, University of London, taken by most Mathematics students and some others in the first semester. The description of the course is as follows: This course introduces the basic notions of probability theory and develops them to the stage where one can begin to use probabilistic ideas in statistical inference and modelling, and the study of stochastic processes. Probability axioms. Conditional probability and independence. Discrete random variables and their distributions. Continuous distributions. Joint distributions. Independence. Expectations. Mean, variance, covariance, correlation. Limiting distributions. The syllabus is as follows: 1. Basic notions of probability. Sample spaces, events, relative frequency, probability axioms. 2. Finite sample spaces. Methods of enumeration. Combinatorial probability. 3. Conditional probability. Theorem of total probability. Bayes theorem. 4. Independence of two events. Mutual independence of n events. Sampling with and without replacement. 5. Random variables. Univariate distributions - discrete, continuous, mixed. Standard distributions - hypergeometric, binomial, geometric, Poisson, uniform, normal, exponential. Probability mass function, density function, distribution function. Probabilities of events in terms of random variables. 6. Transformations of a single random variable. Mean, variance, median,...
