...Q. How were technology, economics and the environment involved in the movie? Give an example of how technology, economics and environment were involved short and long term. A. In the movie Lorenzo’s Oil the technology, economics had a great impact In Lorenzo’s life. The short term effects for technology for Lorenzo consisted of the tests that had to take place such as, blood tests, MRI’S, and brain scans to conclude his genetic disorder. Furthermore the short term effects would soon result into long term for technology because of his genetic disorder (ALD) that would be with him for the rest of his life. The long term effect for economics would consist over the fact that Lorenz’s family would result in going into debt do to all the medical attention Lorenzo needed. The debt would over take the family and take much time to over come and be paid off. It would first start with a short term because the family would be finding a method to try and help their young son to live. The environment for a short term effect would be the hospital, because this is where he would go for medical attention and help. In addition school would also be a short term environment because Lorenzo would attend until he would start to develop symptoms and impact him in his daily life. The Long term effect for environment would be where he spent the majority of his time besides being at the hospital. His house, where he was raised, had story time and felt safe.

Google Books. Accessed July 4, 2016. https://books.google.com/books?id=NkwuAAAAIAAJ. Aiken's purpose of this speech was to raise awareness on the discrimination certain tariffs were showing. He later pointed out that there was some excuse when it came to high tariffs on sugar, beef, and cotton because they benefited several producers; but also displayed the discrimination towards products such as oil stating, There is some excuse for a tariff on sugar, when thousands of producers are benefited. There is some excuse for a high tariff on beef when the thousands of cattle raisers are benefitted. There is some excuse for high tariff on cotton products, when the hundreds of thousands of producers of raw material are indirectly benefited. But for the Standard Oil trust and steel trust, who themselves take the crude product from mother earth and from their own claims, thereby benefiting none but a few operatives, there can now be no just claim for excessive protection. Congress, United States. "Congressional Record." Google Books. Accessed July 4, 2016. https://books.google.com/books?id=NkwuAAAAIAAJ.

It would have been hard to find a more driving, ambitious and fiercely competitive family to be born into, but Richard would hold his own. A. Richard was the third surviving child of Henry II, one of the most astute and formidable of all English kings and the ruler of more of France than the French king himself. 1. Henry’s domains stretched from the Scottish border to the Pyrenees. He was twenty-four when Richard was born and the ravishingly beautiful, accomplished and willful Eleanor of Aquitaine, (Richard’s mother) was around thirty-five. 2. Both Eleanor and Henry were French and neither spoke English. 3. Their first son, William, had died in infancy. Their second child, Hennery, later known as the Young King, was two when Richard was born, and their daughter Matilda was one. There would be two more daughters and two more sons. B. Richard was born in Oxford, in Beaumont Palace which his Grandfather Henry I had built thirty years or so before. 1. There was no university yet at Oxford and the palace stood where Worcester College is today. 2. Out of all of Eleanor’s children, Richard was her favorite, but he didn’t see much of his mother or father as a child, as he grew older they were around more often. C. Fierce family quarrels gave Richard...

...the home new issues have emerged. Historically, women have provided the majority of the nurturing and guidance that their families and children needed to thrive. Their self-concept was wrapped up in their success as a mother and a wife. In today’s society women face many new challenges. How to balance working outside of the home with their responsibilities as a mother and a wife has become the focus. This has created new social and community expectations for women. For many women, these new expectations create a tremendous amount of stress and trigger feelings of shame when they are not successful at juggling all the responsibilities. Etiology of Shame We all experience shame. It is a universal emotion. Brown (2007) recognized after interviewing many women, that the first step to understanding shame was to define it in terms we can all understand. “Shame is the intensely painful feeling or experience of believing we are flawed and therefore unworthy of acceptance and belonging” (Brown, 2007, p. 5). The less we understand shame and how it affects our feelings, thoughts, and behaviors the more power it exerts over our lives (Brown, 2007). Women experience shame on a variety of levels and across all parts of their lives. If women can find the courage to talk about shame and the compassion to listen,...

...3/15/13 English foundations honors 2 Mrs. Muratori Research paper hamlet INTRO Hamlet is a tragedy by William Shakespeare where the main character, Hamlet, Thesis: In William Shakespeare’s Hamlet mythological and biblical allusions informs us of Hamlet’s inevitable fall. Throughout the play, Hamlet uses many mythological allusions to show his feelings towards other characters such as Claudius, Gertrude and the old king as well as inform us of his “fall”. After Queen Gertrude is re-married to Claudius, Hamlet shows his feelings when he compares the late King Hamlet to Claudius. Hamlet tells his mother, "So excellent a king, that was to this / Hyperion to a satyr." (Ham. I ii 139-40). This allusion shows Hamlet's high praise for his dead father as well as his extreme hatred for Claudius. Hyperion is the Greek sun god. By comparing his dead father to Hyperion, Hamlet does not just connect his father to a titan, but also the source of light and with that hope and happiness. The sun is what also sustains life. Hamlet is alluding to how his father was a great king, a strong and dynamic leader that cared for his family and strength of Denmark. The sun also symbolizes warmth and glory which are qualities reflected upon his father. A good king, like the sun, is also a keeper of the peace who watches from above. It is evident that Hamlet greatly loved his father and is stunned by how his mother quickly moved on after his death to marry Claudius who...

...Social Development Research Social Development Research Depression is a mental illness that causes strong feelings of sadness or despair and affects a person’s moods and thoughts. It is a sickness that will happen without a motive. Each year in the United States depression affects an estimated 17 million people (Gordon,2010). Depression is a disease in which a life can be destroyed. Depression is tricky to detect in any age group. Men, women, and teens can become victims of this dreaded disease of the mind. Depression is complicated to detect in one owns self because a person‘s thoughts may be cloudy and any critical thinking can be lost. This disease called depression can be fatal, just like cancer or diabetes. Depression is a serious matter. To learn more about depression is a weapon against the disease. Emotions are hard to detect. Emotions do not bleed red like a deep cut. Feeling sad hurts just like a bleeding wound but it is sometimes undetectable. Depression is a silent killer like diabetes. Some warning signs of depression are withdrawal symptoms, frequent crying, anger, extreme sensitivity, and lack of enjoyment, thoughts of suicide or death. If any of these symptoms are detectable or obvious in someone, they might be depressed if the symptoms are long lasting or and severe. Helping a person with depression can save their life.

...Seminar Paper on the Topic: Scarlett O’Hara as a Complicated Heroine INTRODUCTION Gone with the Wind, a popular romantic novel by Margaret Mitchell, differs from most Civil War novels by glorifying the South and demonizing the North. Other popular novels about the Civil War, such as Stephen Crane’s The Red Badge of Courage, are told from a Northern perspective and tend to exalt the North’s values. Mitchell’s novel is unique also for its portrayal of a strong-willed, independent woman, Scarlett O’Hara, who shares many characteristics with Mitchell herself. Mitchell frequently defied convention, divorcing her first husband and pursuing a career in journalism despite the disapproval of society. Gone with the Wind was published in 1936; ten years after Mitchell began writing it. A smash success upon publication, Gone with the Wind became—and remains even now—one of the best-selling novels of all time. It received the 1937 Pulitzer Prize. In the late 1930s a film version of the novel was planned, and David O. Selznick’s nationwide search for an actress to play Scarlett O’Hara captivated the nation’s attention. The resulting film starred Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable as Scarlett O’Hara and Rhett Butler, and it quickly became one of the most popular motion pictures of all time. My research paper discusses about the character of the protagonist. No doubt Scarlett O’Hara is a complicated heroine in the story. But there is nothing to say...

...I conducted my research at various locations that I visited while I was on a trip for my birthday. I observed things on my trip to Florida and when I arrived at my destination in Daytona Beach, FL. I looked at billboards along the highways and watched different things that I saw people do as I sat on the beach. I never noticed some things that people do until I just sat and observed. It was interesting to say the least. I realized that people do certain sexual gestures subconsciously and forget that maybe others are looking. I also conducted my research at home as I talked with my mother and grandmother about sex. We as a family have some very interesting conversations about sex because we are very open with one another. But there are some things about my sex life that I keep private because I do not know how they would react to it. During my observation I realized that social control not only exists in our society as a whole but, also within my own family. I am normally an observant person but to sit around and purposely observe others behavior and the things around me was a bit uncomfortable. I didn’t want others to think I was watching them and/or stalking them so I decided to take mental notes. It was fairly easy spotting some things that are socially controlled but others were more covert. The signs were huge and once you read them you knew exactly what it meant but there were some hidden meanings within the messages as well. As I sat on the beach enjoying the weather...

...A Review of the Effects of Forgiveness Therapy Liberty University A Review of the Effects of Forgiveness Therapy Reed's and Enright research on forgiveness has demonstrated that a forgiveness recovery program resulted in psychological benefits for women with a history of emotional abuse by a spouse or romantic partner.

As recently as the 1990’s, nearly fifteen million children faced the life-changing crisis of a divorce. Most of these children were under eight years of age. Approximately one million new children each year go through divorce.

...True Women of the West To see a women’s true worth is deeper then beauty. If she does not document her story, then who will tell it in its full truth? Throughout history a woman’s story was lost. As a society we have glamorized history of women who were called, Red Light Women, Soiled Doves, and Painted ladies. History books leave out many details of what these women lives were really like. Today’s equal rights activist, Roma Thompson, takes a different approach in bringing awareness about todays current equal rights issues. Roma has spent the last three decades designing costumes and doing research on important women in Colorado history, to present to groups, all over the western United States. Thompson’s passion of the rough life of a working girl in the Wild West, opened her eyes to the ugly true of the battle of equal right’s that women have endured throughout history. Every women in history had a story, from the parlor women, to the Madam’s, and history’s leading women activist. Even though, women still struggle to be equal in today’s society, Roma feels that educating on the women in the past, will bring awareness to the true worth and importance of women in the world. Thompson creatively transports her audience back in time to the early 1900s, starting with the painted ladies and madams, and leads into women who inspired her the most. Brothels could be found in all different areas—mining towns, cow towns, logging camps, large cities, cattle-shipping centers, end-of-track...

...Same sex marriage as defined in our text book, Doing Ethics, refers to the marriage in a full legal sense of gay and lesbian couples. (Vaughn 2013, p 451) Marriage between a man and a woman was instituted by God with Adam and Eve. According to the scripture, Matthew 19: 4-5, New Testament, Jesus reaffirms this “He answered, Have you not read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female: and said, “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one?” However, the media is supportive and liberal in their views of views if same-sex marriage. Even the Merriam-Webster dictionary defines marriage as the state of being united to a person of the opposite sex as husband and wife in a consensual and contractual relationship recognized by law. But as the second definition, it states, the state of being united to a person of the same sex or a relationship like that of a traditional marriage. Same-sex marriage is one of the most controversial issues in the world. According to our text book, Doing Ethics, William Bennett warns of the dire consequences of legalizing same sex unions. He states that “the legal union of same-sex couples would shatter the conventional definition of marriage, change the rules which govern behavior, endorse practices which are completely antithetical to the tenets (a principle or belief, especially one of the main principles of a religion or philosophy) of all the world’s major...
