...(DQ1) Do you think the judicial branch is the least dangerous branch of government, as the video discusses? Why or why not? Discuss one example you think demonstrates the power of the Supreme Court. Jina’s Response: The Judicial Branch was called "the least dangerous branch" by Alexander Hamilton because they could not be influenced by one side or another, simply have the job of give the "right and necessary" decision on the cases. They can not or will force, their decision will be for judgement. Thus, it's roles and power would be limited. Although, the power is for judgement, they are truly slow. When a case is chosen, it pass months and more months after the decision can be reached, and for me, if they are there for judgement, why the wait?; I understand, the cases are several, but taking months for a decision is just "ridiculous" for me. The opinions about the power they have are really disperse. Some think the Judicial Branch has not power at all, as Alexander Hamilton once said, just for judgement, because the Congress has control over almost all. But many others think that the Judicial Branch it is the most dominant branch of the government, because its power influence each individual of this Nation. I agree, in part, the Judicial Branch has become very powerful, but surely is not the most powerful. Other branches of the government have clearly more power and control of many issues of the society. For example the Executive Branch or the Congress...

...How May I Help You Amanda Post Grand Canyon University: ENT 435 December 20, 2013 How May I Help You The restaurant and food service industry is a very unique commerce that encompasses the likes of many different trades into one situation. Within the restaurant business there are managerial trades, culinary trades, service trades, financial trades, as well as many other micro-trades. Each of these stated vocations work together to provide an enjoyable and quality experience for the consumers who patronize the establishment. Post 79 is an established restaurant that strives to provide a superior experience to its patrons. There are many areas in which Post 79 can improve the customers’ encounter through innovative changes.

...GAMING DOES HELP YOU AT TIMES To develop a skill in something which you are interested in also helps you use those skills in your daily life. One such sport is gaming. Though it may seem that it has no fundamental use in our day to day life, it shapes our concentration to an extent where we can utilise it for other things. It is said that non gamers can see 3 to 4 objects at a time and react, gamers can see about 6 to 7 objects at a time and the reaction time is quicker than that of a non gamer. It is seen that those who are socially awkward tend to open up while they play games online. They tend to communicate their whereabouts in the game itself which results in making new friends when there is a team game. The coordination between your eyes and your hands tend to sync according to your brain’s command which results in quick movement and fast reflexes when in the real world and not in the world of simulation and first person shooting. There are many merits in gaming but there are two sides to every coin. As much as how gaming can be useful for body control, increase in concentration, there are also a few demerits to it too. You can differentiaite gaming as team games and a single player games. Most of this generation games are of team games but there are also a few single player games which many people do play. They tend to be isolated from the social world and are confined to their “gaming chambers” as some people call them. They do not want to make many friends...

...Day, which, back in 2010, peppered many a British-holidaymaker-strewn poolside (making those poolsides deliciously seasoned with accessible fiction – it’s fine, I’m on top of this), and was subsequently made into a successful film starring that thin actress, you know the one. OK, I realise that hardly narrows down the options – they’re narrowed down by the demands and constraints of a body-image-obsessed patriarchy, which insists they have no dinner. But yes, there are lots of thin actresses. But this one’s really thin. Come on, you remember – she had that award-winning haircut in the miserable musical, same name as Shakespeare’s wife. Something to do with a cottage. I’d Google her if I had time. Anyway, she’s in it. I feel I’ve left a sentence open somewhere there – a dangling demi-clause (as when the Christmas float sped under the low bridge). Yes! That’s it: David Nicholls was explaining to the Cheltenham literature festival why there was such a long gap between One Day and his latest novel, Us. Which wasn’t that he refused to rush his new novel – it was that he didn’t. Refuse to, that is. He did rush it, is what I’m saying. What he specifically did was download a piece of software called Write or Die that requires you to bang the words out at a certain rate or it starts deleting them. Nicholls described it as like “writing with a gun to my head”. It enabled him quickly to generate 35,000 unusable words. That’s enough for another series of Top Gear. It sounds like a nightmare...

..."Hi, Can I Help You?" It was so dark and cold. I couldn't stop counting the drops that hit my windshield. 7,8,9,10,11....constantly missing one, I would restart counting. I didn't want to focus on anything else while on my way to see him. Counting the drops helped keep my head calm. Although, it also helped me nearly get into a car crash. I should pay more attention at what's in front of me. Like the whole slew of cars during this bitch of a rainstorm. Nearly four years it was since I last saw him. Four years since I had last saw his boney frame and unchanged, soiled clothing. Four years since I thought this world was just compiled of shit and dirt. And four years since I couldn't wait for him to be taken away, to see what life is like without him. Maybe he had changed or maybe he was still drinking away the tiniest bit of man he had left. Hoping he would remain the drunk he always was, I pulled up to the house he supposedly was squatting in. Remembering the address I read on the restraining order documents, I couldn't stop repeating the numbers to myself. Stomach twisted, I walked up to the house. I looked at what, essentially, resembled who and what my dad was. A mangy, dirty, and neglected structure. Hesitantly knocking on "his" door, I found nor heard my dad or anyone for that matter. Panic had set in. I felt pissed off. Those feelings were not foreign when dealing with this man. Of course he wasn't at this house. Of Course He Wasn't There. He never was, why would he...

...can you help to protect it? Environment is an important part of human life and a healthy environment is a must for human existence. Therefore, it is crucial that we take care of our surroundings and help nature maintain ecological balance so that we could hand over to the coming generations the environment as we found it, if not any better. Our planet is changing. There are a lot of things that affect our planet in a bad way but the good news is that everyone can help to reduce them and do their bit for the environment. While exploring six important topics that affect our community : Electricity (Energy), Pollution, Food, Water, Rubbish, Rainforest, I'll present the damage and a list of ways that we can all contribute to help our planet get better. 1. Electricity Energy is everywhere. We use energy to move the mouse for a computer, to jump and shout and walk and run. It takes energy to power a light bulb, and the light that the bulb gives off is also a form of energy. Other forms of energy include heat, chemical energy, gravitational energy and nuclear power. Electricity is a form of energy and this is what powers the TV, the kettle, dishwasher, hairdryer, toaster, remote control, mobile phone, fridge, stereo, electric toothbrush, and more. Our growing need for energy is one of the problems facing the world today, because producing electricity also produces our next topic - pollution. How to help? When you’re using electricity think about where it comes from and how you can...

...work or they were being poisoned by toxic chemicals. All people are respectful to scientists because of their enormous contributions to humankind. When I decide to pursue my major-electrical engineering, I also aim at figuring out an efficient way to reduce the gas emission. I think about how to make use of the solar energy in the production of solar panel on rooftop, electricity-generating devices. Truthfully, the solar energy is very important to the world. The fossil fuels cannot remain sufficient; therefore, oil and gas supplies will go down and cannot bring enough for demand. The solar energy will be the best option for a long term. Solar panel on the rooftop will focus the sun’s rays to heat fluids that produce power so that it can help engines act. Solar energy makes the productivity higher. However, the use of solar energy in production is still low due to the manufacturing high cost. In the future, if all people tend to use more solar energy, the manufacturing cost will decrease so that it can fit to the majority. Furthermore, the storing of solar energy is also considered deeply. If people constantly use an energy source without storing for later use, that source will become disappear. Those are the things I am going to do in the future to make people have a better...

...We hear the term “greenhouse gas” a lot—but what is it? Humans add various gases to the earth’s atmosphere every day; these gases (known as “greenhouse gases”) consist primarily of carbon dioxide, ozone, chlorofluorocarbons, nitrous oxide, and methane, and tend to warm the earth. Trees help counter greenhouse gas production during photosynthesis, by taking in carbon dioxide as waste material and producing oxygen, which of course we all need to survive. Scientists predict that the daily addition of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, combined with daily removal of large portions of the world’s forests, will raise the earth’s average temperature by several degrees in the next century. This in turn will raise the level of the sea and potentially create significant changes in weather patterns on a global scale. As we move into the future, many climatologists expect that most of the United States will warm. What we do not know yet is how to scientifically predict which parts of the nation will become wetter or drier. We do know there is likely to be an overall trend toward increased precipitation and evaporation, and more intense weather systems, in the form of violent rainstorms, blizzards and sun-baked, drier soils. The Facts—What Do We Already Know About Changing Global Conditions (Global Warming)? Global temperatures are rising. Observations collected over the last century suggest that the average land surface temperature has risen 0.45-0.6°C (0.8-1.0°F) in the last...

...They Can Do It! You Can Help! Since Home Depot opened their doors in 1979, they set out to lead the market in excellent customer service. Their motto of “ whatever it takes” shows their commitment to differentiate themselves in that field (website, 2011). And it certainly seems to have helped them lead the market and continue to grow their business beyond U.S. borders and be competitive on a global scale. It is a part of what founders Bernie Marcus and Arthur Blank deem the “Three Legged Stool” of their overall business strategy (Darrow, 1994, para. 8). The first leg is to provide the best selection and quantity of home building supplies to satisfy as many do-it-yourself customers as possible. The second leg of the stool is to offer their products at the most competitive price compared to the rest of the market so there is no reason to shop anywhere but Home Depot. These first two legs are substantial components of their competitive strategy and have helped them edge out most of the competition. From the start, however, the organization’s founders knew that that having quality, knowledgeable employees interfacing with their customers was one of the most crucial investments in which they should invest. The third leg, therefore, is to provide the best service in the industry (Darrow, 1994, para. 12). All of the legs of Home Depot’s strategic make-up are important and provide stability to their competitive advantage over the rest of the...

...Dear Shirley, I just want to express my sympathy to you about Tara and let you know that I am thinking about you and your family. Although she and I haven’t talked much over the years, I thought about her quite often and would sometimes check her social media pages to see how her life has been going. I think the last time we talked she was still in the army and she seemed to be doing well. And of course, since her birthday is just three days before mine I’d often think about her around that time. I thought it might be a nice idea for me to write down some of my memories of Tara for her children. Perhaps when they are a little older they can read them and enjoy them. She will always have a special place in my heart as being my first true best friend so I would love to share with them the little part of Tara that I knew. Jakob and Olivia, As a child, your mom was the most beautiful girl in our neighborhood; all the boys wanted to be her boyfriend, and all of the girls wanted to be her best friend. I was lucky enough that she chose me to be her best friend for a few short years. We didn’t live in the best neighborhood, but our families often relied on each other to get by. I remember on one occasion my mother taking Tara and I school shopping and buying us tons of new clothes. We even had a couple of matching outfits and would dress like twins! On another occasion, I remember your grandmother Shirley knocking on our door and handing my mother some money—money that I could...

...The Media as an Agent in Socialization According to the reading, “Socialization and Culture” from the book “Interdisciplinary English” by Loretta F. Kasper, socialization is the process in which a child learns how to behave in life and participate in a group in society. Socialization has four basic agents: family, school, peers and the mass media. Each one of these agents plays a role in our lives. However, in my opinion, the most important agent of socialization for the development of the child is the mass media. The Mass Media are the different processes that facilitate communication between the sender of a message and the receiver of that message. It plays an important role in the socialization of children. In fact, there are many types of media; these include newspapers, magazines, radio, films, CDs, Internet, and television. These kinds of media, especially television, affect children’s and adult’s behavior in different ways. According to the article, “Socialization: From Infancy to Old Age”, “The average family in the United States has at least one television turned on for at least seven hours a day.” Television is the biggest mass media in this country and has positive and negative aspects. There are some programs which are very helpful with lots of information for the children. For example; on channel thirty-three, there is a good program called“Dora the explorer”. Children can learn to speak Spanish and also do things such as singing, standing up and pronouncing...

...Composting – A more sustainable way to help you grow your own If you have all ready made the decision to grow your own fruit and vegetables you are one step closer to living more sustainably. So, what better way to aid this than create your own compost pile. You can make it as simple or complex as you please – all you really need is to combine the right materials and let nature do the rest. However there are a few different ways to make your compost more nutrient rich and more efficient. What is composting? Composting is a natural process where organic materials decompose and are turned into a rich soil. It is also a form of recycling as you are essentially returning nutrients back into the soil. Getting started The easiest way to make your own compost bin is by making a four foot wide circular cage using chicken wire and a piece of untreated wood to secure it into the ground and keep it more rigid. It may also be worth adding some twigs at the bottom to aid drainage. Covering the top of the pile with anything from wood to a plastic bin bag is not essential but will help to retain heat and moisture and also prevent it from getting saturated in the rain. Alternatively most local councils offer plastic composting bins if you wanted to keep it neater and more controlled. What can I add to my compost pile? . Vegetable and fruit leftovers . Egg shells . Shredded paper . Coffee grounds / Tea leaves . Untreated grass clippings . Weeds . Whole or chopped...
