...at life. This analysis is focused on two regions in particular, West and Central Africa : the region of West Africa was explored by Mungo Park first, at the end of the 18th century, and by Mary Kingsley exactly one hundred years later, while Henry Stanley went to the Central part of the continent, with the purpose of finding his companion Livingstone, in a first journey from 1871 to 1872, and he secondly came back to Africa for a new mission in 1874. This essay highlights the different approaches these authors took to talking about the country, and the different ways in which they set off for a journey into the “Dark Continent” at their time. It will be divided into three different sections, one for each author, following a chronological time. In each part the main differences and common themes Park, Stanley and Kingsley share, will be analysed. MUNGO PARK’S TRAVEL IN THE INTERIOR DISTRICTS OF AFRICA Mungo Park’s book recounts an eighteen-month expedition in West Africa [...] that commenced in May 1795 . He was accompanied by two African servants and his aim was to reach the Niger River. It is important to say that Park set off for the journey at the behest of the African Association, who asked him to accomplish three principal tasks: • he had to ascertain the direction in which the Niger flowed; • he had to find the city of Timbuktu, which people believed to be...

...he episode opens with Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler), the deputy director of the Department of Parks and Recreation with six years of experience in the town of Pawnee, Indiana, discussing with a documentary crew her strong belief in the power of government to help other people. Later, Leslie hosts a community outreach public forum at an elementary school along with her jaded colleague Tom Haverford (Aziz Ansari). Leslie is enthusiastic despite the low turnout and angry complaints, which she describes as "people caring loudly at me". Local nurse Ann Perkins (Rashida Jones) complains about a giant pit near her house, which was dug out by a condominium developer that went bankrupt in the middle of the construction project. Ann says that her boyfriend Andy Dwyer (Chris Pratt) broke both his legs after falling into the pit, and she demands something be done about it. Leslie is inspired by the challenge and makes a "pinky promise" that she will fill in the pit and build a park on the land.[1][2] Leslie seeks advice from city planner Mark Brendanawicz (Paul Schneider), who feels the project would prove practically impossible due to the logistics and bureaucratic red tape, but Leslie is undeterred.[3][4] Leslie later fondly tells the documentary crew that she and Mark made love five years ago, but Mark only vaguely recalls the encounter.[5][6] Leslie, Tom and uninterested intern April Ludgate (Aubrey Plaza) visit Ann and meet Andy, a lazy and demanding musician whom she is forced to wait...

...with a child. ”In a study, published in Pediatrics by Dr. Mark Schuster (author & chief of general), researchers found that more than 40% of adolescents had intercourse before talking to their parents about safe sex, birth control or sexually transmitted diseases.” (Park, Time Health) Though it may not be apparent, kids would prefer to learn about sex from their parents. This study was done as a wake-up call to parents, who are not discussing important issues with their children, before unwise sexual choices are made. “The “Qualitative Study” involved 141 family’s who enrolled in the Talking Parents, Healthy Teens Program, organized by the University of California Los Angeles/Rand Center for Adolescent Health Promotion and overseen by Dr. Mark Schuster.” (Park, Time Health) Separate groups were conducted for mothers and fathers, and for black, white and hispanic parents. Content analysis was used to identify core themes and patterns. “Children ages 13-17 and their parents’ responded to questions concerning 24 issues regarding sex and sexuality, including how women become pregnant, body changes that occur during puberty, how to use condoms and birth control and issues around homosexuality.” (Park, Time Health) Parents and their children were...

...But all religious believe came into one point that-There is something, some says it can be the spirits. So,here I gave some information about the unsolved matters………. Ghosts of the Stanley Hotel If you where staying at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado and turned to channel 42 of your guest-room television, you would be watching one of my all-time favorite movies: The Shining. Doesn’t matter what time of day or night, or year for that matter, it is always on. That’s not supernatural, of course- merely a nod to their role as the inspiration for Stephen King’s novel. Employees report hearing the commotion of a great party in the grand ballroom when there is no one there. Children can be heard playing in the halls when there are no children at all, and many guests have reported seeing ghostly figures in their rooms at night, merely standing, watching. The fourth floor seems to be host to the most amount of activity, and there is one ghost in particular, purportedly Lord Dunraven, the previous owner of the land the property was built on, who can be seen standing over the bed or looking out the window of room 407. He is widely blamed for any jewelry or valuables that have gone missing in the hotel over the years. The Brown Lady Raynham Hall Raynham Hall in Norfolk, England, is home to the subject of one of the most famous ghost photos ever captured, the Brown Lady is named so because she appears in a rich brocade brown dress. She is widely believed to be Lady Dorothy...

...the employee with do whatever it takes to get that reward. Rewards can come in either positive or negative reinforcement. Positive reinforcement is rewarding a good behavior in order to encourage that behavior to continue. This could be giving an employee a raise, a bonus, promotion, recognition, extra vacation time and so forth. Just as rewards can be given for a job well done, punishment can be used as a motivator to change a particular behavior and discourage it from continuing. Negative reinforcement is a negative reaction to a behavior—implementing a punishment when that behavior is done and removing it when the behavior stops. Negative reinforcement would be extending working hours, requiring early or late meetings past the usual “go home time,” the removal of something pleasurable in the work environment and such. Decision-making and motivation are closely related because people will decide a behavior based on their motivation to do so. A person is motivated to wake up at 5a.m. every morning because they want to compete in a marathon. The...

...ensure as much safety in what could become much crowed airspace from just over our heads to where helicopters and low flying aircraft currently operate. Although these rules are limiting, commercial industries see them as the path to future innovations in their own businesses. Richard J. Dolesh, Vice President for Conservation and Parks for the National Recreation and Park Association, speculates that drone technology has many uses in areas such as the “expansion of human knowledge, research, fighting environmental threats, and saving lives as well as many others” (Dolesh). He comments at length on the opportunities park agencies have to utilize drone technology, “for important conservation, natural resource management, and public safety responsibilities” (Dolesh). For these specific responsibilities, drones may be able to reach currently inaccessible points of high altitude using a high resolution cameras in order to survey land areas. By being able to perform these tasks, drones are able to assist with “search-and-rescue operations, wild fire control, managing threatened natural areas, mapping the spread of invasive species, and monitoring remote park locations” (Dolesh). Specific drone applications vary in regards to the types of technologies each drone possesses. For example, “Vapor” drones have thermal imaging capability that allows an obstructed view through obstacles such as walls, trees, smoke, and darkness (Preble). These types of drones are used during search-and-rescue...

...Federal Express Corporation Social Responsibility Strategy Prepared for: Board of Directors FedEx Corporation Prepared by: Kakish Consulting Group: Lily Kakish March 28, 2012 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In 1994, John Elkington coined the term triple bottom line. (TBL) “As originator of the term, I have often been asked how it was conceived and born. As far as I can remember – and memory is a notoriously fallible thing – there was no single eureka! moment. Instead, in 1994 we had been looking for new language to express what we saw as an inevitable expansion of the environmental agenda that Sustainability (founded in 1987)”. (Johnelkington.com, 2004). TBL consists of the Three Ps: profit, people, and planet. These three are different and separable yet all part of the success when it comes to the “bottom line”. The 21st century companies are called for a higher standard of excellence. This level of excellence should respond to three questions: 1. Are we financially responsible? (profit) 2. Are we socially responsible with the stakeholders? (people) 3. Are we environmentally responsible? (planet) FedEx bought into this business concept before it was politically correct and was one of the corporations that pioneered its role with social responsibility and accountability. Although it is easy to assess the first of these three TBL, it is harder to measure the 2nd (people) and 3rd (planet). Never-the-less, all companies no matter their size, location, and focus should be dedicated...

...Part A “Ireland’s banking crisis bears the clear imprint of global influences, yet it was in crucial ways home-made.” (Regling and Watson 2010) The economic conditions in Ireland which preceded the bank guarantee were created by a mix of both internal and external macro factors and domestic policy decisions. We will examine these factors in detail and see how government policy, reckless lending policies by the banks and a lack of any real regulatory oversight of the banking sector culminated so dramatically in that faithful decision on 30th September 2008. From the late eighties onwards, Ireland experienced a period of unprecedented economic expansion. This expansion can be divided into two distinct phases, the export driven growth of the early to late 1990’s - ‘the true ‘Celtic Tiger’ period” (Honahan. P, 2010) - and the major asset bubble in commercial and residential property from 2000 to 2007. The 1990’s saw a dramatic expansion in Ireland’s economy. A large increase in workforce participation due to demographic changes, increased productivity and a huge influx of foreign direct investment combined with other factors resulted in GNI per-capita doubling in less than a decade from 1990 (World Bank, Databank) . These factors formed the basis for the ensuing housing boom. As employment increased, so did incomes and immigration which created increased demand for housing stock. The steady expansion in employment, standards of living and incomes (due largely to social partnership...

...mankind originated. In Babylon, Ishtar gave birth from her "cosmic uterus" that is drawn out within the stars, where as Gaea, in Rome, emerged from the "primal vagina." And in Greece, "Mother Earth" formerly became Eleusis, who gave birth to a sheath of corn each year, associating ladies and fertility with crop and harvesting. Apart from the facility of fertility, the goddess conjointly had the facility of death. If the good Mother may bring man into the planet, it appeared possible enough that she may take him out. In mythologies, goddesses rounded up the dead "like a sheepdog" (Miles) Rosalind Miles, The Women's History of the planet.1989. Florence Nightingale, the daughter of the rich landowner, William Nightingale of Embly Park, Hampshire, was born in Florence, Italy, on twelfth might, 1820. Her father was a Unitarian and an affiliate of a reforming British political party that supported the nobility and later the business community, finally turning into the core of the Liberal Party who was in opposition to enslaved labor, particularly for low wage and underneath unfit conditions. As a child, Florence was terribly near her father, who treated her as his friend and companion. He took responsibility for her education and taught her Greek, Latin, French, German, and Italian, history, philosophy and arithmetic. Florence visited Kaiserwerth, Germany where she studied to become a nurse at the Institute of Protestant Deaconesses. When William Russell publicized...
