...Oh, that this too, too sullied flesh would melt, Thaw, and resolve itself into a dew, Or t hat the Everlasting had not fixed His canon 'gainst self-slaughter! O God, God! How weary, stale, flat, and unprofitable Seem to me all the uses of this world!” (1.2.5) Translation: Hamlet wants to commit suicide. Except he feels that is not an option since his religion forbids it. Explanation: For this passage of the novel, you must know some background information on the Elizabethan era. During this time, suicide was illegal. Hamlet believes that suicide is a good alternative to life in a painful world. Hamlet believes this option of suicide is closed to him because it is forbidden by religion. Also, suicide was more than just being frowned upon. If suicide were attempted, they would be put on trial and punished. If your attempt of suicide as successful you were buried in disgrace outside of the city and you were considered a condemned soul. To conclude, Elizabethan audience would understand how Hamlet would not break the law to commit suicide in respect of his religion. Where as a modern day audience would not understand why he would not, because of the knowledge they do not obtain about the Elizabethan era and their laws and religion. Shakespeare, William.

...about. You will briefly refer to the FLC and state which therapists developed it, explain the 6 stages and some of the relevant aspects of this model. The first part of the assignment has nothing to do with the couple you interview. It offers explanations and definitions only. It sets the scene for applying theory to the couple you interviewed. 2. How many words/ pages does this assignment need to be? Would you prefer us to write till we have covered all the topics and made our conclusion? Response The actual essay will be between 10 to 20 written pages and 8 to 12 typed pages. The questionnaire is one of the addendums and will not be included in this length. 3. Do we need to add the questions we asked the couple and their answers in our submission? Or do we use their answers as a general guideline to add to our understanding of the life-cycle theory. Response You have to know the theory well enough to be able to extract parts of the interview that confer or contradict the theory and demonstrate that you actually used the answers of the couple in your discussion of each section. It is best to use a formula such as this…..give a review of theory- provide definitions, an explanation in your own words, then apply the practical quotes or information gathered from the couple. This will demonstrate your ability to apply practice to theory ( integration). So you use their answers as a general guideline to demonstrate your understanding of theory. 4. Can you recommend a few...

...Robert Frost demonstrates how two neighbors have a peaceful relationship because of a wall that separates them. Through the use of metaphors and personifications, Frost conveys how a respectful distance between people is the key to a stable relationship. There is no denying that Frost uses two metaphors to support how a considerate amount of space that is shared with people is the magic for a sane relationship. While the two neighbors are on their way to fix the wall a neighbor states, “Oh, just another kind of outdoor game,/ One on a side”(21-22). This quote gives an explanation on how one neighbor takes the task more nonchalant than the other neighbor. The speaker compares how restoring the wall is more of a one player game. Meaning he practically has no say on what Player One does. In another part of the poem, the neighbors are repairing their wall the same neighbor thinks, “He is all pine and I am apple-orchard”(23). In this quote the neighbor is comparing themselves to a “apple-orchard” tree which means he is open to new ideas and allows people to be close to them. But then the they explain how their neighbor is a pine tree meaning they pictured them covered in barbed and sharp objects. You don't have to be a genius to know that somebody with barbed wrapped around themselves do not want to be conversating and getting too close to people. These metaphors may remind you of how a decent amount of space people put in a relationship helps their bond become stronger. While using...

And dying,” Paper magazine’s Kim Hastreiter says halfway through the tour of her Super (Duper) Market, which will be open Friday through the weekend in Manhattan’s meatpacking district. She is completely elated and, more important, satiated, by what’s in store: “The best ice cream (Humphry Slocombe), the best cornbread (Red Rooster), the best olive oil (Sciabica’s),” she says. Here, at what is a smorgasbord of carefully procured and exquisitely packaged food stuff, all the stars of Hastreiter’s bicoastal culinary-craft world collide. The vendors hail mostly from Brooklyn (Empire Mayonnaise, Morris Kitchen, Mile End) and California’s Bay Area (Boulettes Larder, Modern Appealing Clothing, Tartine Bakery and Cafe). “I’m kind of a maven, and these are really my favorite things,” says Hastreiter pointing to the Tang Brothers noodle stand. “Those are, like, the best noodles.” Walk through the mart and you might sample homemade mozzarella on honey-drizzled toast from the Cobble Hill restaurant Brucie, buy a Sol LeWitt star bowl (Hastreiter’s pick) at...

...Code of Ethics Analysis There are many obstacles one will encounter in the human service organizations. One of the biggest issues is trying to explain to the clients that they need to give informed consent. Human service organizations tend to forget about the rights of the patient to give consent on treatment plans or methods of treatments under certain instances. For example, if a patient has a mental illness, it may be hard for a social worker to explain what is going on in a way that the patient will understand it. This situation may lead to the patient to not fully understanding that they have just given consent to be treated or not treated. The NASW, or National Association of Social Workers, had a Code of Ethics. This Code is to help guide the social workers on how to behave in a professional matter, how to handle situations in an ethical matter, and it gives a list of standards that are to be meet in an ethical way. These codes or rules may affect how a social worker will obtain consent from a patient because the patient could have a hearing disorder, a mental disorder, or they could even speak a different language. The goal of NASW is to take each situation and outline a way in which the social worker can get the consent they need. For example, let us say that the client is illiterate, or cannot understand the main language being used. The social worker will then have to verbally explain everything in a way that the client will understand them. If the...

...Vos, E and Kelleher, B: Mergers and Takeovers: A Memetic Approach. Motivation & reason for the paper and how it fits into the overall context of the literature: In the following paper the authors describe a new understanding of the motive phenomena for manager’s initiating M&As. Previous research strongly agrees with the stance that M&As are not a financially sound investment for companies, however, it seems that managers are willing to continue to practice M&As regardless of the negative long-term effect it will have on both the acquiring and target company. This goes against the theoretical view that managers are there to increase the value of shareholders. If managers understand this, their human behaviour to continue with M&As is irrational and can’t be explained by some mathematical model. Vos and Kelleher agree that the traditional theories and models of finance are irrelevant in describing managerial motives (particularly towards M&As), as it is the human behaviour that we must study. Their thesis is that managers are not acting so as to maximise shareholder wealth (agrees with agency theory) and their primary motivation behind M&As is to gain power. The data and methodology used by the paper: This diagnostic paper provides a literature review of previous research and then looks forward by applying behavioural ideas of ‘memetics’ to explain the motivation behind managers’ actions. The results of the paper and meaning of the results, in...

...Lynda K. Ilea CJS/230 Instructor: Margaret Peck What is your opinion of probation? What should happen with probation programs in the future? Do you think it would be appropriate to increase restrictions imposed on probation? Explain your rationale. Probation is a good concept and does work for the most part. When I was put on probation I really did not understand the true meaning of what Probation really meant. After being violated because of dirty drug urine's, I was returned back into the court system, later I was sentenced to time in jail. My real opinion on this, having your lawyer drill into your head the importance of what probation and rehabilitation truly means to the accused and the addict. Probation programs needs to concentrate on the rehabilitation of the individual that has obviously lost their way. If we spend the time to find out what is going on with the accused, we will find that there are usually some serious underlining issues that have caused them to do the things that they have done to land themselves in jail. Programs should focus more on the rehabilitation of the individual; everyone deserves the education on how to fix their problem. I do believe that the state should not always pick up the tab, so it should be treated as if the person is applying for a student loan. Promising to pay back to society what they have taken out of it. I never understood the error of my ways until I maintain a substantial amount of clean time. The longer...

...Chad Conger Mrs. Yoakum English105 17 October 2012 Summary In the article “Working Life” the author, Nisha Ramachandran, explains how working during your time in college can affect your life in many ways, but ultimately being a student should come first. Ramachandran opens up by elaborating on the average cost of college and how it can be overwhelming at times. She says, “ 74 percent of full-time students juggle work and school.”(292) Additionally 46 percent of those students work 25 hours or more in a week, and 20 percent work full time. Ramachandran also states that students should look for co-op programs that employ students into fields of their studies. The article explains that these carriers often pay better due to the amount of skills needed. Along with money, these co-op programs offer a look into the actual life of a possible future profession for the student. Ramachandran informs on the benefits of tuition reimbursement to student-employees. She states that these companies help a student with their school costs as well as money in pocket. As well as filling your pockets the author explains how building a solid resume while in college is also important. Ramachandran sums up her article with explaining how important your schoolwork can be. She states some helpful tips; do not expect to pay off college while still in college. The author brings everything into perspective by explaining that students that work 10 hours a week on average have a much better GPA...

...Explain informed consent and confidentiality to the client. Informed consent involves the counselor explaining the benefits and risks of counseling as well as its alternatives. It also allows the counselor permission to record counseling sessions in writing, and via video and auditory means. In an educational institution setting, informed consent allows students to observe counseling sessions. Once these issues are explained to the potential client, the client is asked to sign legal documents that state the client understands and agrees to the services to be provided and their potential dangers. When counseling minors, informed consent must come from a parent. While explaining the pros and cons of counseling to the parent, the counselor must also explain the necessity of confidentiality in the therapeutic relationship with a minor. A confidentiality form is presented during the discussion of confidentiality. In adhering to counseling ethics, the counselor must explain that confidentiality is a promise not to discuss matters that are shared by the client with a third party unless under pre-determined exceptions. The exceptions to confidentiality include reporting information the client reveals to the counselor that suggests he or she is a danger to him or herself or others. For example: If a client talks about killing himself and identifies that he has a plan and the means to execute that plan, it is the counselor's ethical responsibility to inform appropriate...

...has had the disease) it primarily considers individual beliefs. It doesn’t include the influence of other people who can be very important. When the model is applied, health workers know that if only the individual patient wants to take action and important others are opposed, there is little chance of change. The Locus of Control theory by Rotter only divides people into two distinct categories – surely not all ‘internalisers’ are healthy and all externalisers are unhealthy? It is huglet reductionist and therefore, fails to explain individual differences in health behaviours due to knowledge, age, sex, lifestyle etc. However, there is lots of empirical research evidence to support the theory. Self-Efficacy offers an dispositional explanation, suggesting that individuals are responsible for making their own health decisions. It is useful as it also suggests that health behaviours can be changed, if an...
