This twisted tale of marriage, love, family, religion, power and human mature is one of great depth and purpose. The Puritans became resolute in creating a colon y that would be a beacon of light to the rest of the “civilized” world by immulating what they feverently believed to be the true worship of God which was the strict following of the law. The sin of the law is simple in that mankind is incapable of adhereing to the law so strictly and that the power of the self righteous that ignorantly believe that they are in fact following the law, even if the actions are sinful in and of itself. This led the Puritans to sin not only against God of the Old Testement by breaking the law, but also Jesus in the New Testament for not exclaiming freedom from the law given by his death and the conquering of death by his resurrection. Freedom is representative of the “A” in numerous ways. As in the moment Hester pulls away from the constable and “stepped out into the open air” on “her own free will”. This is what the Puritans...

...ketoacidosis is when your body produces excess blood acids. (American Diabetes Association, 2015) High blood pressure is a danger for the mother and baby. The risk of miscarriage, stillbirth, and birth defects increase when diabetes is not controlled well enough. Mothers of the babies risk diabetic ketoacidosis, retinopathy, pregnancy-induced high blood pressure, and preeclampsia. (Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research, 1998-2015) Nephropathy is another negative effect of Type 1 Diabetes. Diabetes can damage kidneys that filter waste. High levels of blood sugar can cause too much blood to flow through the kidneys. Lots of work weakens the filters and begins to leak losing protein in urine, this is called, microalbuminuria. If thisis diagnosed soon enough the treatments can keep it from getting worse. The opposite of this is macroalbuminuria, when there is large amounts of protein in urine. Overtime kidneys will begin to give out this is called ESRD. At this point a kidney transplant or dialysis is needed. A dialysis is the process for removing waste and excess water from the blood and is used for an artificial replacement for a kidney.

...Abstruct : Thisis paper focuses on the prospect and growth potentials of Islamic banks in Bangladesh as perceived by Islamic and conventional bankers. The study noted that there is a high demand for interest-free banking services from a segment of people in Bangladesh who have a strong desire to abide by the rules and principals set by Shariah. Along with religious requirement, economic exigencies provide a new outlook to the role of banking in promoting investment/ productive activities, influencing distribution of income and adding stability to the economy. The Islamic banking sector is, however, criticized on several grounds by the Conventional bankers. The banks are believed not to apply the rules of Shariah completely. Islamic banks are said to include interest in their dealings to compete effectively with the Conventional banks. Moreover, conventional banks offering Islamic banking as a parallel service are thought to do so only to add to their profitability, by attracting people who value the Shariah based system by enjoying the advantages of the special treatments from the Central bank. According to the survey, suitable and supportive legal framework would facilitate better growth of this sector. Moreover, the lack of an inter-bank money market and sufficient supportive and link institutions in the sector, act as impediments to growth of Islamic banking. Also, banks perceive the availability of training and education on Islamic banking to be inadequate in Bangladesh. To...
