...1. I think that they have good intentions to have an equal work place and I do thing that there needs to be woman in the work place. Woman have a different way of thing and it can put in valuable information, or they many have a more efficient or effective way of doing something. Where are these jobs coming from are getting rid of male workers or are they moving on or retiring? Something that worries me are the men there going to listen to a woman that just got the job and they possibly wanted the job for themselves. Most men do not like to see women bossing them around it makes them feel emasculated. This could cause problems for the new women on top. It will take some time but it will change the men will get used to it and when new people come in they will not know any different. 2. One problem could be the people that are giving the interview they many not want change or they could be sexist. They could want to hire one of their friends for the job as well. It is also had to know if the person will fit the company well. Also there is not many women in top positions so they may not have as much experts as the males might have. Another thing is are they going to get the job done or is it going to be too stressful on the woman. Something else to consider are they qualified for the job. But the biggest thing to consider is that they are right for the company it will make a smoother transition and will have less to worry about if the people understands the job and the companies...

...meant to strip people their essence and convey the embodiment of a person, “Portraits should provide us with authentic insights into individual personalities and this means much more than simply recording physical impressions…the task of the portrait artist is no so much to produce a likeness as to capture the “reality” of a person”, (Neville Drury, 1992). A painted portrait possesses a life of its own that stems from deep within the painters’ soul and shows the raw soul of the sitter; portraits should allow you to see who the person truly is, its an embodiment. Vincent van Gogh’s 1889 conveys the essence of who van Gogh was, his state of mind and mood through visual...

...practices, moving away from regulatory measures, and silencing the workers’ movements such as the IWW that participated in strikes to bring attention to these realities. Also during this time, African Americans and women struggled for their rights and equality in society. Zinn argues that while there was such an emphasis on social reality, the government was able to use this advantage for political and economic affairs that encouraged the business community. This materialized in a recoil against workers and ethnic minorities, something that Zinn believes is essential in understanding the rise of the Klan and other issues in American society. Howard Zinn also argues that the Great Depression, brought upon by the stock market crash, uneven distribution of wealth in society, and other factors that helped aid the Great Depression, brought out more social activism such as the Bonus Army and the establishment of “Hoovervilles” as a way to bring back the social and political activism that raised the affairs of unfair capitalism to the publics’ interest. This called for Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal policy, elements that helped to recover, reform, and provide relief to those who suffered in the 1920s. During the post World War l period, there was an extreme amount of labor strikes in the United States. The immensity of these strikes caused the city of Seattle, Washington to come to a halt. Although the reasoning behind the strikes varied, most workers went on strike because...

...CDT Geblein MIL401 Midterm Essay 18OCT15 “The Legality and Morality of Autonomous Drone Strikes” My initial thought when I had heard I would be considering the legal and ethical implications of the use of autonomous drone strikes was that these strikes would be a bad thing. However the articles I have read about this have convinced me otherwise. Not only do these strikes provide a significant tactical advantage for the user but also they are cost efficient. The strikes made by these autonomous drones are allowed within the U.S. law and the Law of War. Additionally there is no moral obligation to limit your fighting power in a war to what your enemy has so there are no moral or ethical issues with these strikes. The use of these drones...

...(March 1997) We know that there were a lot of fish in the area because we caught a ton! You can start with a Rapala Rattlin’ Rap and I will throw a buzzbait. We will be fishing fairly fast so I will keep my Motorguide Brute on a high speed. We want to find out if there are any biters around. It may seem strange to be fishing with a fast bait for fish that we know are tired and stressed, but we need to have at least one or two fish tell us (by striking our lure) that there are fish in the area. If we can trigger a strike on a fast horizontal presentation then we can slow down and use some better tactics for these post spawn fish. Since we know that most of the fish are on the flats, we won’t spend any time fishing tight to shore. We will spend our time on the edge of the inside weedline and fishing out, away from shore. These fish could be anywhere on the flats.We will just chunk and wind until we trigger one. There! One just missed my buzzbait! Cast that Rapala just beyond where that fish boiled! You got him! Way to go! We will try this area for a while longer to see if there are any more here. When we catch one more we will change tackle as well as tactics. Now I’ve got one! It’s a small one but at least he’s telling on his brothers and...

...Abstract:- Youth awareness: paradigm shift in social and political scenario 200 to 400 words The first thought that strikes our mind when we think of the word “youth” is swami Vivekananda. His teachings are an inspiration not only for us Indians but for youth all around the globe. Even the national youth day 12 january is celebrated on his birthday. Youth being the Future of our country is highly relied upon. But what would our country do if even our future is depressed? Our Paper will focus upon some of the highly troubling and contributing factors due to which the youth today is losing its values and thereby its true potential. The young man today has hands and feet to work seemingly but yet he is crippled. Our youth is coming under the influence of the harsh circumstances and complex situations of the world which they are sometimes unable to manage. Focusing on politics first. Corruption in the political system either makes the youth succumb to the system by either becoming a part of the system itself or committing suicide. The ones who dare to stand against the system like Rajiv Gandhi are assassinated. Increasing rates of SUICIDES, RAPES, HOMICIDES. The society of conservatives questions the youth and labels them as WEAK. But nobody sees what lead to such a WEAKNESS; if at all these acts signify weakness. These acts don’t signify weakness. They signify deep anger, provocation, fear, anguish and dissatisfaction at the hands of those who in power. They signify a need for...

I watch as Albert Pujols comes to the plate. Everyone is on edge as the first pitch is delivered, he smashes it for a double and we are all going crazy now. Can we do this? Can we get a bottom of the ninth rally and actually pull this off? Next batter walks. Next up is Craig and the crowd is going wild. His last at bat he had hit a solo homerun. Could he do it again and give us the victory? He does what every baseball player knows not to do, he takes strike three looking. You feel the tide change as the Cardinal fans get quiet and the Ranger fans are on their feet. They are one out away from the World Series Championship. David Freese coming up and gets down in the count 1-2. Now the Rangers are one strike away from victory. The Cardinals fans are all quietly looking on, many with hands squeezed in front of them praying, as the pitch is delivered. This is it, sink or swim, and he absolutely crushes the ball...

...Policies (FXRM) which if can’t be managed properly then would lead to either systematic shocks or negative implications at the bottom line of the corporate, banks, FI and trading houses P&L A/cs. That is something risk management struggles with, say the experts. In Richard Meyers’ estimation, risk managers or traders do not socialize enough. “It’s all about visibility,” he said. Meyers, chairman and CEO of Richard Meyers & Associates, a talent acquisition and management firm in New Jersey, relates the story of a firm that decided to adopt an Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) strategy. Instead of appointing its risk manager to head ERM, the company brought in someone else. Why? Time has come when organizations across the world have to do deep amendments in their Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) policies covering foreign exchange hedging programs, diversification in derivatives portfolio, Enterprise risk management policies and deeper and deeper understanding towards financial models.

...fields. In 1964, Chavez moved his family to the city of Delano, California and worked on the fields in order to get closer to his people. This is when the unity began. Shortly after Dolores Huerta, portrayed by Rosario Dawson, moved to Delano and joined Cesar in the movement. Together they stared The National Farm Workers Association, and loaned money to people. Once word got out and the association started to grow they were paid a surprise visit by the Delano Sheriff department. The Sheriff accused them of being communist, but Chavez was quick to reply they were catholic and not communist. In 1965, Filipino farm workers or better know as The Agriculture Workers Organize Community (AWOC), went on strike against the grape growers in Delano for wage equality. During the strike Larry Itliong, leader of the Filipino farm workers union, recruited Cesar Chavez and the help of the National Farm Workers Association (NFWA). After putting aside their differences, NFWA and AWOC merged, forming the United Farm...

...interest of “plot or thematic advancement.” 3. violence between characters may reveal their innermost feelings. 1.) At the onset of the story which bears his name, Grendel is portrayed as a terrifying monster who terrorizes Hrothgar’s mead hall whenever possible, taking a few men or women for dinner each time. Throughout the introduction of the novel, Grendel makes it know that should he not kill them they will eventually kill him. What caused this fiend to become determined that preemptive strike was the best choice? Grendel narrates his first and very violent, encounter with humans from a very helpless stand, as he is hanging from a tree. At the first sight of alarm, the humans sent spears and other weapons threw Grendel’s arms and legs. This action, more than ensuring that Grendel was physically paralyzed, signified Grendel’s realizationthat the humans would kill him if he ever gave them a chance, and through pain set in cement the idea that the best way to prevent that was to strike first. “It’s Greek to Me” 1.myth is literature is a “body of story that matters” 2. greek and roman mythologies are ingrained into our psyches and culture. 3. many characters in literature may have parallels in mythology. 2.)

...theory of the continental drift. There are many types of plate boundaries. Each one is unique in its own way. Below three of the primary types are described in detail. There are several natural events that occur as a direct result of plate boundary interaction. To properly understand the what and how of plate boundaries one must first know what they are. According to Annenberg Foundation (2014), “The border between two tectonic plates is called a boundary. All the tectonic plates are constantly moving — very slowly — around the planet, but in many different directions. Some are moving toward each other, some are moving apart, and some are sliding past each other” (para. 3). Divergent, convergent, and transform are the three primary types of plates. According to "Plate Tectonics" (2010) “A divergent boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. Along these boundaries, lava spews from long fissures and geysers spurt superheated water. Frequent earthquakes strike along the rift. Beneath the rift, magma—molten rock—rises from the mantle” (divergent boundary). According to "Plate Tectonics" (2010), “When two plates come together, it is known as a convergent boundary. The impact of the...

...Earthquake From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This article is about the natural seismic phenomenon. For other uses, see Earthquake (disambiguation). [pic] An earthquake (also known as a quake, tremor, temblor or seismic activity) is the result of a sudden release of energy in theEarth's crust that creates seismic waves. Earthquakes are measured with a seismometer; a device which also records is known as aseismograph. The moment magnitude (or the related and mostly obsolete Richter magnitude) of an earthquake is conventionally reported, with magnitude 3 or lower earthquakes being mostly imperceptible and magnitude 7 causing serious damage over large areas. Intensity of shaking is measured on the modified Mercalli scale. At the Earth's surface, earthquakes manifest themselves by shaking and sometimes displacing the ground. When a large earthquakeepicenter is located offshore, the seabed sometimes suffers sufficient displacement to cause a tsunami. The shaking in earthquakes can also trigger landslides and occasionally volcanic activity. In its most generic sense, the word earthquake is used to describe any seismic event — whether a natural phenomenon or an event caused by humans — that generates seismic waves. Earthquakes are caused mostly by rupture of geological faults, but also by volcanic activity, landslides, mine blasts, and nuclear experiments. An earthquake's point of initial rupture is called its focus orhypocenter. The term epicenter refers to the point at...

...Right as I began to dive into Kim’s biography, the lights dimmed and the trio took the stage. After tuning and preparing themselves, the trio began the first piece, Ludwig Van Beethoven’s Piano Trio in B-flat Major, Op. 97, “Archduke”. The piece begins in Allegro Moderato with the piano leading an already powerful ranged melody on top of a powerful low range rhythm. The strings seem to slowly creep in for the few seconds, but soon the intensity builds. The piano strikes twice and then rests while the strings play a beautifully haunting melody on top. This persists three times with the piano seeming to descend chord wise. The same feeling is felt throughout the piece, but in a different kind of sense. This can be seen in the development section as the piano does not come to full stops, but rather evokes the feeling of a short stop with high ranged notes being played. The development begins to unravel into a beautiful scene of descending dissonant notes contrasted with accessible melodies from the strings. Although it was interesting to see themes come back again and again in a piece, at...
