...Introduction The projection of the state is provided by the concepts relevant to sovereignty and this is effectively established through a link relevant to both domestic and international realignments. Basing on various strands, nation-state, the composition that is reminiscent to the nation state is evolved within the spectrum of power and greatly advocated to help meet the significant compositions of the specific nation. The functions that help to define the law is based on exclusively new coordinations and the level of approach is objectively classified basing on the amount of political and social forces applied. For instance, the derivative involves The components which are supported by significant modern-state decisions are comparatively based on the growth potential of the modern-state. Political risk is a procedural occurrence that significantly affects to flow of modern-state process resulting into significant development processes. Brown, (2008) explained the political decisions that are deliberately made would lead to uncoordinated migration from a projected state to a more politically motivated system that is capable of being obstructed by political forces. The focus on important causative agents exemplifies the sharpened political forces as well as heightened security concerns. The established goals are distinctly created through the effectiveness of the risks related to economic turnovers and generated landscapes. Lind, (1995) critically reasoned that a nationalistic...

What task we did is the children in need and that carried out effectively in a positive effect on people in the college because we sponsored silent a whole long 4 hours so people can donate money that were collecting for basically children in need and we also did man vs female vs food which grabbed a whole of bunch of students attention and that helped us in the way that the student donated a lot of money we did completed the task and carried it out efficiently and effectively.

...Sam Wiggins 12/1/15 English 101 Prompt 4 I believe the United States should have an official language. There are too many languages and cultures here, and people should start to learn the English language in order to live here. When you go to other Countries you have to learn the language, why not here as well? It really doesn't make sense. A person’s culture is something that does not depend on the language you speak to a store clerk! If you wish to live in the United States accept that. We are a country that welcomes people’s diversity but we have taught English in our schools from the get go. There needs to be some give and take. If you speak another language in your home or when conversing with family or friends then because you live in America, that is your choice, but we are a united country and one of the things that keeps us together despite our differences is our ability to communicate with each other. The United States is a melting pot. How do we "melt" into one country if we have different languages and thus language barriers among us? In order to be united, we need to have a common way to understand one another. This does not mean that each culture should not be able to practice his/her own cultural traditions. In fact, the common language will allow us to share our own origins with one another. A common language allows the "melting" in our melting pot of a nation. Many of the arguments I've read against having English as the official language can be re-construed...

...Question 1 Video 1: https://www.ted.com/talks/eric_liu_why_ordinary_people_need_to_understand_power/transcript?language=en a. Liu’s definition of power: The definition of power means the capacity to make others do what you would have them to do. b. Liu’s definition of civics: The definition of civics simply means the art of being a pro-social, problem-solving, problem-solving contributor in a self-governing community. c. The result of our creeping fatalism in public life is: Depressingly low levels of civic knowledge, civil engagement, and participation awareness. The whole business of politics has been effectively subcontracted out to a band of professionals, money people, outreach people, message people, and research people. The rest of us are meant to feel like amateurs in the sense of suckers. We become demotivated to learn more about how things work. We begin to opt out. d. If people don't learn power, people don't wake up, and if they don't wake up, they get left out. e. All of civics boils down to the simple question of who decides, and you have to play that out in a place, in an arena f. Liu argues the best place to practice power is the city. g. What is the challenge and opportunity in citizen power today? Do you have command of these elemental questions of power? Could you put into practice effectively what it is that you know?

...Unit 3 Citizenship, Diversity and the Public Services 198410 16TH January 2014 Tom Brooks Citizenship, Diversity and the Public services In order to complete this task explain in detail the meanings associated with citizenship, diversity and terminology, also accessing the benefits of good citizens to public services and society in relation to respecting equality. I will then create an analysis of the importance to public services of good citizens by respecting equality and supporting them by respecting the key concepts associated with diversity. I will then finally give an evaluation of the role of citizens in supporting public services when having to deal with issues. Citizenship There are a number of different ways in which you are able to describe the term citizenship, citizenship is mostly known as a status that is awarded to many citizens. Citizens are the collective term for members of a specific community. British citizenship can either be gained by legally by either by birth or naturalisation, anybody who was born in the United Kingdom before 1983 would automatically considered to be a British citizen, this would also apply to children whose parents carried out a diplomatic role in the United Kingdom. After 1983 a person could become a British citizen by birth only if they had a parent who was a British citizen, or if at least one of the parents were allowed to stay in the UK permanently. If any of these criteria is not met, an application for British citizenship...

It had a lot of life lessons with a father son relationship that was so close. It was very similar to how my life is with me and my dad.

His dad who played in the NFL for a while is tough on him. Mick starts to grow up and along the way he is working harder than ever before. He starts to get older and he starts to lift weights. He begins to get buff. His dad starts to realize that he is getting bigger and bigger every single day. His dad starts to question him on why he is getting so big. He tells his dad that he has been busting his tail for the last couple months. His dad starts to look around his room and ends up finding a needle in his room and confronts him on his son using "hgh" known as steroids.

...Branches of the Government Learning Team D HIS 301 Professor Bruce Franklin Branches of the Government “Historically, the concept of Separation of Powers dates back as far as ancient Greece. The concepts were refined by contemporaries of the Framers, and those refinements influenced the establishment of the three branches in the Constitution” (Mount, 2014). The idea of a separation of powers first appeared in the political philosophy of Montesquieu. He advocated for a government where each branch had clear cut rules on what they could and could not do. This idea of a separation of government, or a government that was for the people would be perpetuated by other philosophers throughout the Enlightenment era. The founding fathers sought to create the United States government in the same way. Each branch is empowered with distinct powers. The government is set up this way in order to prevent abuse of power. Each branch is able to exercise a form of control over each other. Within the constitution are articles. Within each article, it outlines the separations of powers for each branch of the government. Article one outlines The Legislative. Which is made up of The Senate and the House of Representatives Article two is composed of The Executive branch. This entails the President, his Vice-President and the state departments. Article three explains the judicial branch. This also covers federal and the Supreme Court. With this kind of system in place, it creates a kind of...

...Elise Garcia 01.03 Assignment July 9, 2015 Dear President Barack Obama, I propose that you use your executive powers to create another holiday in this country. I would like to put forth the suggestion that a national holiday be created in honor of Jesse Jackson. A lot like you, Mr. Jackson was a junior senator before seeking to run for the presidency, although in his case the office of president will not likely be his legacy. It is for this reason and so many more that I think he deserves consideration for his own national holiday. Mr. Jackson represents Americanism, both in its roots; that which seeks to succeed against all odds, often with little more than sheer will to achieve a dream, as well as a more modern interpretation of success Jesse Jackson negotiated the release of 22 American’s in Cuba pursuant to an invitation by Fidel Castro. It is no coincidence that Castro believed Jesse Jackson was a man he could trust, in addition to having written to Castro on several occasions, he had been a longtime associate and protégée of Rev. Howard Schomer, a well known leftist and communist supporter. Mr. Jackson himself had a long history of association with international communist front organizations and terrorist groups. He also maintained a relationship with Hunter Pitts O’Dell whom Kennedy had urged Martin Luther King to distance himself from, due to his Communist Party Affiliation and key financial operative and party functionary with the communist party whom Jackson...

...Outline the responsibilities of the different levels of government in the UK. (P1) European Parliament The European parliament consists of 736 members from 27 different countries. 72 of these members are representing the UK’s interest. The European parliament debate and pass European law. They are based in three different places; Brussels, Luxembourg and Strasbourg. The European parliament cover several different things across Europe these include the environment, equal ops, transport, consumer rights and immigration. I think the main focus of the European parliament is to try to make the passing of legislation in the EU more democratic. Central Government The central government is below The Monarch and features the House of Commons and the House of lords which includes the Prime Minister. The central government looks after the whole country and has the power to make and pass laws. They have to defend their nation and will often have to sign agreements with other countries. The house of commons consists of 646 members of parliament who each represent a different part of the country. There are three main political parties; these are The Conservatives, The Liberal Democrats and The Labour Party. The House of Commons will deal with issues such as making laws, examining EU proposals and controlling finance throughout the nation. Most importantly anyone has the right to contact their local MP and get them to raise their issue for them within the House of Commons. The...

...* Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke spoke to Congress on Tuesday about the still troubled U.S. economy, and what lawmakers can do to ease the pain. Giving his semiannual address to the House Banking Committee, he failed to provide any concrete information about actions the Fed will take to do its part in aiding recovery. One possible option the Fed has is another round of quantitative easing, a process in which the government purchases assets from banks and private companies in order to add a set amount of money into the economy. * Often confused with printing money, quantitative easing uses the new electronically-created cash to purchase government bonds and other assets, rather than using newly minted money to pay off government debt. The U.S. government began its first round of easing in November of 2008, followed by a second round in November of 2010. For the past several years the Federal Reserve has also maintained interest rates near zero, in attempt to boost economic recovery after the 2008 recession and housing market collapse. * A third round of quantitative easing could be a possibility, although Bernanke was not sure on the Fed's plans. He told Congress Tuesday he considers the first two rounds to be successful, and the Fed is "prepared to take further action as appropriate." It is possible the Fed would see diminishing returns on a third round, or QE3. * Easing can boost the economy by increasing the amount of available liquid assets and ability of banks to...

...Research Paper A Corrupted Government and Abducted Students: How Can We Ensure the Safety of Mexico’s Citizens and Others? AP Geography Stefania Grazzianne 1/28/15 Mr. Butler 2B Word count:_________ Tears fall on banners and printed images of the many students that have gone missing over the past few weeks in Iguala, Mexico. Families and friends have gathered round to grieve for who they have lost on September 26, 2014. Earlier that year, forty-three college students have gone missing for the past months and weeks after protesting against the government for its unfair reforms in education. For the past months, these forty-three students have not been found and still remain missing. Some have been found dead; burned up or shot. It results that the Mexican government has strong ties with a large criminal gang association, and permitted the criminal association to illegally abduct the students. As the people of Mexico are roaming the streets, protesting in rage, the government is refusing to do anything to stop or prevent such events as this. One must believe that Mexico is in desperate need for help and support, and thus needs outside help to stop such events from happening-perhaps step by step, the government will crash (overthrown) . One must agree that the United States must step in and help the citizens...

...CREST CENTRE FOR RESEARCH INTO ELECTIONS AND SOCIAL TRENDS Working Paper Number 106 June 2004 Is Britain Facing a Crisis of Democracy? By Catherine Bromley, John Curtice and Ben Seyd The Centre for Research into Elections and Social Trends is an ESRC Research Centre based jointly at the National Centre for Social Research (formerly SCPR) and the Department of Sociology, University of Oxford http://www.crest.ox.ac.uk Is Britain Facing a Crisis of Democracy? by Catherine Bromley, John Curtice and Ben Seyd EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Britain is widely believed to be suffering a crisis of democracy. This briefing examines whether this perception is justified or not. Our findings - which are based on a four year research project funded by the ESRC - address four key issues: the legitimacy of governments, patterns of participation in politics, the impact of constitutional reform, and the explanation for any crisis. Legitimacy There has been a decline in levels of trust in government and confidence in the political system. Thirty years ago, four in ten people in Britain trusted government to put the needs of the nation above those of their political party; today, just one in five do so. But much of this decline set in during the early 1990s, although trust and confidence have fallen further since 1997. Participation Turnout at all elections has declined since 1997, most noticeably at the 2001 general election, when the participation rate was the lowest since 1918....

...SERRANO, Michael N. Assignment no. 2 February 10, 2014 1) Explain how SK (Sangguniang Kabataan) was created. Do you agree in the abolition of the SK. Present 3 arguments and explain thoroughly. The creation of the SK is in response to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child to create an opportunity wherein youth can engage and represent their sector. In 1975 the first youth council was established during martial law by President Ferdinand Marcos. Presidential Decree (PD) 684 created the Kabataang Barangay (KB) to give the youth a chance to be involved in community affairs and to provide the government means to inform the youth of the government's development efforts. Sangguniang Kabataan has Emil Maristela as the national founder from 2007 to present. Argument 1: In my own opinion, I would agree in the abolition of the SK. Because nowadays political dynasty occurs in terms of politics even in local government, sometimes the barangay captain and Sk chairman is father and son scenario. That’s why the youth is exposing in corruption of their barangay. Argument 2: In my second opinion, I would disagree in the abolition of SK. Because there are youth of the nation that really wanted to help and serve his kabataan with all his will and faithfulness that he will do his best for them to serve and be a good example for the youth of the nation and be a symbol that every youth can make a change...

...Max Saludares Professor Sunio ICS 170 3/6/2015 Week #8 - Chapter 6 Privacy And The Government Synopsis Obama Wants Tech Companies to Install Backdoors for Government Spying Social media apps such as Snapchats and Imessages allow a person to have encrypted messages so that certain individuals are allowed to see. But, the british prime minister David Cameron argues with Barack Obama to remove encryption messaging or allow a “backdoor” method so government agencies can monitor, access private information, or find evidence of terrorist act. This article is related to this chapter because it incorporates government surveillance that is mentioned throughout this weeks chapter. Social Contact Theory As for this theory, people are arguing and complaining that the government is “abusing their power to another level” and people are feeling like it’s corrupted. This theory relates to this article because people must give up sovereignty to the government no matter what. The government rules this country. No matter how much people complain, the government is always spying on everyone, they are the ones monitoring our systems to keep us safe from terrorists. Utilitarianism “There is no back door that only lets good guys go through it,” There’s many views on this situation. For instance, an hackers point of view. Having to create a backdoor in social media apps to reveal encrypted messages for the government can have hackers to exploit them for their own purposes. Since encrypted...

Today was one of my best friend’s engagements and I wanted to stay longer I was enjoying myself but it’s over now. You have picked on me incessantly since you got back from CT and I understand that you are sick but it’s nasty. Yesterday wasn’t nice for either of us but we managed to pull through and communicate well enough to show our care for each other isgreater than the drama that attacked us. I was not flirting with anyone today. I feel sick that you suggested that and that you made a scene at the table and made us leave early. I’m terribly disappointed in how the day ended and how you left me. We are living in a double standard relationship where you can be mad about how I deal with stuff when you are very quick to act cold and offish when you’re unhappy. Every 5 seconds I hear how you dated another chick. You really have dated a lot of people yet you get upset if I mention ONE funny story with a long term boyfriend. I do everything to make you happy and to not say anything to rock the boat with u. You do everything to throw tantrums in front of people. I have been upset by you for 2 days now. I’m so upset I left Darren’s party earl. SO upset. I can’t get that day back. I’m scared of you sometimes and how u snap at me and of how you will react to me.
