...The Negative Effect of Anger Anger is an emotion that is probably the most manifested and the most difficult to contain. It is usually easy for people to get mad and nag about something that doesn’t goes well for them. Defined as “a feeling of sudden and strong displeasure and antagonism directed against the cause of an assumed wrong or injury”, anger is oftentimes overpowering that people cannot hold it resulting into a bigger problem (Jones, 2004). As a person grows older and is expose in a different scenario, feeling angry becomes a potential destruction for him. When you hear someone throwing negative thoughts about you, it is understandable to be angry. Anger is considered as an act of self-defense especially if you feel that someone is ruining your dignity. The question is, how long and how intense your anger will last? Dealing anger longer than necessary can destroy your social life. If you keep the annoying feeling towards somebody, you end up losing a friend out of that person. “Expressions of anger elicit negative impressions, reciprocal hostility, and sometimes retaliation (Potegal, 2010)”. An irritated person is unconsciously building a wall against a possible reconciliation and his outrage prevents him from accepting logic. Furious person also undergoes self-destruction. His body produces chemical reaction every time he feels mad. Muscles inside the body become tense that prevents the normal routine of different body organs. Hypertension, insomnia, heart...

...Distinguish between negative freedom and positive freedom, and explain the significance to the state.{15} Negative liberty is the absence of obstacles, barriers or constraints. One has negative liberty to the extent that actions are available to one in this negative sense. Positive liberty is the possibility of acting — or the fact of acting — in such a way as to take control of one's life and realize one's fundamental purposes. While negative liberty is usually attributed to individual agents, positive liberty is sometimes attributed to collectivities, or to individuals considered primarily as members of given collectivities. The idea of distinguishing between a negative and a positive sense of the term ‘liberty’ goes back at least to Kant, and was examined and defended in depth by Isaiah Berlin in the 1950s and ’60s. Discussions about positive and negative liberty normally take place within the context of political and social philosophy. They are distinct from, though sometimes related to, philosophical discussions about free will. Work on the nature of positive liberty often overlaps, however, with work on the nature of autonomy. As Berlin showed, negative and positive liberty are not merely two distinct kinds of liberty; they can be seen as rival, incompatible interpretations of a single political ideal. Since few people claim to be against liberty, the way this term is interpreted and defined can have important political implications. Political liberalism tends...

...Is Negative or ‘Attack’ Advertising at effective tool in of Political engagement and mobilization? There are assault ads, conveying the simple message over and over, that Brand X, the rival, is a cheesy piece of goods, won’t hold up, has to be cranked by hand… This is the model for not just our commercial product sales but, rather more vigorously, for our political campaigns as well… we have gradually just gotten used to them. Its not so much that I am wonderful the candidate explains, as the opponent is a lying, cowardly, two faced cheat and con artist. (Pulitzer Prize winner and Washington Post columnist Meg Greenfield, 1995) Whether through print or television media, advertising affects behaviour. A key tool of political parties, it has been used to win support during critical governmental assessment or change, and engage the susceptible electorate to participate in the political process. Yet, where features such as wit, charisma or aptitude have been emphasized and admired, the intemperance of political campaigning has also drawn out a negative side, one that seeks to cast a damaging shadow on any opposition in order to attain the support of the majority. The types of political message given out by both politicians and the media vary in how they are constructed and what they intend to achieve, and despite widespread criticism surrounding its ethical fragilities, attack politics in particular have become a fundamental component of any political campaign and evidence...

...Negative Effects of Organized Religion Week one University of Phoenix COM/215 August, 2011 Hope Umansky Organized Religion Organized religion has been a part of society for centuries, and its ideas and concepts have been instilled in the minds of human beings. It has altered the way people think and should be considered a dangerous entity if treated with pure emotions. Organized religion is negatively influential to society because it persuades vulnerable people, creates false belief systems based on faith and not fact, and promotes unnecessary violent world conflicts. When someone loses a loved one, comes down with a terminal illness, or becomes overwhelmed with financial burdens their minds can be vulnerable to persuasion due to their attitudes being negatively altered and their environment changing around them. Bohner and Schwarz states, “learning occurs when responses increase in frequency because they have positive consequences (a process called reinforcement), or decrease in frequency because they have negative consequences (a process called punishment)” (2002, Chapter 19, p3). Someone who is negatively affected from their environment and positively affected from repetitive church visits will alter their mindset to be persuaded by religion with the hopes of being positively reinforced. Once this person alters their mindsets and is experiencing a positive affect multiple times without negative repercussions, the church or The Bible will have the power to alter or...

...mathematical integer that it corresponds to. Integral types may be unsigned (capable of representing only non-negative integers) or signed (capable of representing negative integers as well).[1] An integer value is typically specified in the source code of a program as a sequence of digits, without spaces or thousands separators, optionally prefixed with + or −. Some programming languages allow other notations, such as hexadecimal (base 16) or octal (base 8). The internal representation of this datum is the way the value is stored in the computer’s memory. Unlike mathematical integers, a typical datum in a computer has some minimal and maximum possible value. The maximum is sometimes called MAXINT or—as in the C standard library limits.h header—INT_MAX.[2] The most common representation of a positive integer is a string of bits, using the binary numeral system. The order of the memory bytes storing the bits varies; see endianness. The width or precision of an integral type is the number of bits in its representation. An integral type with n bits can encode 2n numbers; for example an unsigned type typically represents the non-negative values 0 through 2n−1. Other encodings of integer values to bit patterns are sometimes used, for example Binary-coded decimal or Gray code, or as printed character codes such as ASCII. There are four different ways to represent negative numbers in a binary numeral system. The most common is two’s complement, which allows a signed integral type...

If Nancy works more than 3 days per week, any extra days are paid at double her normal rate. Nancy worked 4 weeks with no overtime, and then worked 3 more weeks, each with y days of overtime. Which of the following represents Nancy’s total earnings over this period? ○○ ○○ ○○ ○○ ○○ 3y(7x 1 2xy) 3x 1 12y 3xy(7x 1 2) 3x(2y 1 7) 4x(y 1 8) Step 1: Analyze the Question We’ve got a wordy question stem and variables in the answer choices, so we can make this question more concrete and manageable through Picking Numbers. Step 2: State the Task We need to determine Nancy’s total earnings over a seven-week period, including four regular three-day weeks and three weeks during which she worked overtime days. Step 3: Approach Strategically We need two values, so let’s set x 5 5 and y 5 2. (Note that it’s a good idea to avoid 3 and 4 when Picking Numbers for this question, since those numbers appear in the question itself and may cause confusion later when we substitute the values into the answer choices.)

...Absolute Function Absolute value function is an Algebraic method used commonly in college maths. Absolute value function is a function with variable within an absolute value symbol. Also when represented on a graph the lines make right angles at the point (0, 0). It is written as f(x) =abs(x) and is an even function. It exists in the domain of real numbers and is in the range of non-negative real numbers. A real life example of absolute of absolute function is a football field. Even through the center of the field is labeled zero, you would not say you ran negative feet if you went backward. It is the absolute value of that number. (www.ask.com/mathematics) Technically Jean-Robert Argand came up with the idea of absolute function. However it was Karl Weierstrass who came up with the concept.(www.wikipedia.org) We need Absolute value function to help allow real life situations make sense. For example; using money, driving, distances, sports and many more use absolute function. I did not realize how big of an impact absolute function could play in an everyday normal life. Personally, I like to see when math is used in the real world because it is easier for me to make sense of the subject in a mathematical way. It makes it so much easier to learn a subject that I know I will actually need and use. Math has never been easy for me, but being able to incorporate it into everyday life allows me to understand it a lot easier. Works Cited www.ask.com/mathematics...

...When starting this program I had to look at how people would insert the information. Typically, you would assume that a person would input the length and width for a rectangle asa positive whole number, but this isn’t always the case. To deal with these cases, I had to implement two different features. The first feature to deal with none whole numbers is to make all of the numbers as floats. These variables are therefore float length, float width, float area, float perimeter.After making the numbers floats, a user can input any number even if it has a decimal. The second was to input a while loop after each user input for length and width in order to deal with the possibility of a negative number. A rectangle cannot have a negative or zero side so the while loop deals with this by asking the user to another number for length or width. After this has been completed it is necessary to send both of the numbers to the functions. To find the area, you take the length and width and multiply them together which gives you the area or Area = Length * Width. An example of this is below: Area = Length * Width User Input: Length = 2 & Width = 4 Area = 2 * 4 Area = 8 To find the Perimeter of a rectangle however, it is a bit different. To find the Perimeter you have to use the following formula P = 2(Length) + 2(Width). You use this formula due to the fact that you have 2 sides which are measured for the length and 2 sides which are measured for the width. An example of this is...

...Group evaluation based on Social Exchange Theory Group evaluation based on Social Exchange Theory Social exchange theory suggests that each member of our group entered the group after first weighing the benefits verses the cost. In our situation as students in school, and assigned to a group in order to complete a graded project, what we must weigh is how social exchange theory would instead effect how much effort and dedication each person brought to the group. We must also consider that each person also had outside influences which added to their ability to contribute time on the project itself before giving a favorable or unfavorable opinion of a person’s contribution. For each of us, the benefits or reward are in most cases the same, we would like to get an A on our presentation. What will set us apart is how bad each of us as individuals really want that A. Since I have worked with each of the students in my group for over a year now it’s fairly easy to know and to set expectations as to who will do what within our group. Allan has cared about one thing since I met him a year ago, his GPA. He has not missed a day of school and like me is always the last to leave after class labs. Due to his dedication to maintaining a 4.0 GPA he had everything to gain by putting forth a great effort and contributing one hundred percent to his part of the project.

...should view the absolute value of a number as its distance from zero. Let's look at the number line: number line The absolute value of x, denoted "| x |" (and which is read as "the absolute value of x"), is the distance of x from zero. This is why absolute value is never negative; absolute value only asks "how far?", not "in which direction?" This means not only that | 3 | = 3, because 3 is three units to the right of zero, but also that | –3 | = 3, because –3 is three units to the left of zero. abs(-3) = abs(3) = 3 Warning: The absolute-value notation is bars, not parentheses or brackets. Use the proper notation; the other notations do not mean the same thing. It is important to note that the absolute value bars do NOT work in the same way as do parentheses. Whereas –(–3) = +3, this is NOT how it works for absolute value: Simplify –| –3 |. Given –| –3 |, I first handle the absolute value part, taking the positive and converting the absolute value bars to parentheses: –| –3 | = –(+3) Now I can take the negative through the parentheses: –| –3 | = –(3) = –3 As this illustrates, if you take the negative of an absolute value, you will get a negative number for your answer. When typing math as text, such as in an e-mail, the "pipe" character is usually used to indicate absolute values. The "pipe" is probably a shift-key somewhere north of the "Enter" key on your keyboard. While the "pipe" denoted on the physical keyboard...
