...Student Code of Academic Integrity seemed normal to me. There was one thing though. In the testing, one of the questions gave an example that a student brought a knife in his lunch. I understand how a knife can be used as a weapon however; I don’t think that should count as breaking the rules. If the student actually wanted to harm someone, I do not believe the weapon would be with his lunch. And in that case, would a butter knife be considered a weapon? You can do more damage to someone with a text book or pencil than you could with a butter knife. What did you learn about the behaviors considered important for an ethical learner or student in the University of Phoenix learning community? I learned quiet a lot in the behaviors portion. I have always said “It is your life, live it the way you want.” Well I never thought that if, for example, my roommate was drinking and throwing parties every night it would affect me studying or completing my work. Vis versa also! You have to take into question how your actions are going to affect the people around you. If you study constantly and your roommate parties every night, than maybe you should consider living with someone else. It is not fair to your classmates, roommates, or anybody for that matter for you to run wild, when everyone around you is struggling to pass a class because of your actions. Why are the Student Code of Conduct and Student Code of Academic Integrity important to you and the University of...

...Willson 4 Hadley Willson Mrs. Lockett American Literature/ Composition October 1, 2012 Be Tamed or Be Wild? Imagined being taken from a luxurious life on a ranch and being thrown into the harsh enviroment of Alaska. Jack London, a famous American author, wrote about a dog, who experienced this cruelty, in his historic fiction book, The Call of the Wild. In the summer of 1903, London's novel, was published by the New York Macmillan Company. The story is set in the late 1880's in California, and later moves on to Alaska and the Klondike region of Cananda. Buck, the protagontist, is a dignified St. Bernard and Scottish shephard dog. Throughout the book, he is passed from one owner to the next. After being kidnapped from his luxurious life in Santa Clara, California, Buck is sold to a man in the red sweater. The man in the red sweater was the first person to teach Buck a "primitive law" - that Buck cannot win a fight against a man weilding a weapon. Buck's next owners were Perrault and François. These two Frenchmen worked for the Canadian government, carrying mail to different outposts. Buck's second masters in the north are Charles, Hal, and Mercedes. While they are all related, they don't make a very good team. Charles is an incompetent sled driver and continually puts himself and the dogs at risk. Hal carries weapons and mistreats the dogs, while Mercedes thinks their journey is some kind of camping trip. John Thornton, Buck's final owner, saved Buck from the cruelty...

...entire camp could pack up in less than an hour. Clothing: Women wore wrapped in deer skin skirts. The men wore breechcloths. However, some men wore elaborately decorated war shirts to horrify their enemies in battle. In cooler weather women wore shawls of rabbit fur and men would were painted buffalo robes. They both would occasionally wear moccasins, but mainly they went bare foot. Culture: The Tonkawa spoke a language similar to karanka. The Tonkawa, like most the Plains tribes, had a variety of dances that were performed regularly and ceremoniously. Among many dances belonging to the Tonkawa were the: Buffalo Dance, Deer Dance, Wild Hog Dance, Turkey Dance, Dance of the Short Steps, Notched Stick Dance, and a dance called "Singing All Around" which later became known as the "Back and Forth" dance. The tonkawa used many weapons. An important weapon was the bow and arrow, which was used in warfare and in hunting bison and deer. The bow string was generally fashioned from bison sinew. The arrows were supposedly "poisoned" with the juice of the mistletoe leaf (this is know to be...

...moment in America has always been known and terrifies the majority of citizens. Like many Americans I have to ask, what we can do as a Nation, one unit, to better insure the public safety of every individual. To understand this problem we must go to the root. The American System and its five sets of institutions which ultimately control American way of life. The five institutions are legal, political, economic, educational and sociocultural. All of which too often combine to leave our efforts short of progression. Introduction The issue with gun laws and the legal system have to do with the loop holes and corruption among the producers, sellers and buyers of guns. There are no laws to stop people with mental illnesses from purchasing a weapon unless they involuntarily found themselves receiving psychiatric help. Gun laws are weak and often over looked in the screening process. The Gun stores can legally sell a fire arm without a back ground check being cleared if the FBI does not...

...When the criminals come to abduct our families, protecting your family is the most important job of a parent. No one should feel like a target. According to Biblical Self Defense, families are using weapons to protect themselves from the bad people coming at them. There is at least one to two million citizens that have to use self defense by using guns. Even the Bible tells us to defend ourselves and our families. From the scripture Psalm 82:4: Rescue the weak and needy; Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked. Everyone should have the right to have an armed gun to protect themselves and their families or to hunt wild game. Farmers and ranchers should be able to protect livestock from dangerous wild animals such as coyotes or mountain lions. Dom Raso, a veteran Navy SEAL and NRA supporter, quotes: “As long as humans exist, there will be weapons in this world. We’re better off knowing how to use them and apply them for the right reasons - than not knowing how to use...

...everlasting, so the stems and the branches are poisonous. The next stop is the Paricia Lagoon. This is not an ordinary lagoon. There are water monsters that love to fight humans and eat them for dinner. “How am I supposed to fight without a weapon to slay the monster with?” asked Sinchi. “Well, that’s what I was getting into. I have a weapon room for you. See!” She says while waving her hand in a once empty spot where a new room appears. “Wow!” said Sinchi with his mouth wide open in shock. “But child you can’t fight without being aware of what you’re doing so listen to me. Cut the head off of the monster while it’s being pinned down. The third and final spot before the mountains are the Pacari Caves. There are a bunch of wild four-legged creatures that lead up to a God named Tocco. He is partially a four-legged creature on his head, but he has a human body. After defeating him there is a 15 mile hike up to the mountain and the ritual will be performed there.” Palla explained. “This seems like a very challenging journey, but I want to be a noble leader so I’m willing to do anything.” said Sinchi. “Now you are able to pick your weapon” said Palla with a very excited voice. The closet full of weapons had Sinchi mesmerized. An abundance of weapons were nicely presented in the room. There were javelins, arrows, throwers, slings, and clubs. Sinchi decided to take a club and a javelin because any other fights would be with hand-to-hand combat. “Thank you so much for the help. I will not...

...Assault weapons are not so bad Are assault weapons really that dangerous? No they are not there is a lot of mass murders in the world such as San Bernardino and sandy hook elementary ETC. Most of the gunmen and women have disabilities. The man from Sandy hook elementary had a mental problem and he went to the school and shot all of the little children. Most of the mast shooting aren't from people having the assault weapons most of the massacres are from video games. Some shooters play gun games such as Call Of Duty. A lot of gunmen play those a games daily and learn how to do things like breaking into places, and killing many and many people. I think the U.S should ban violent video games. Assault weapons shall not be banned at all....

...gathering to a food processing society. It involved a transition from foraging and hunting to the domestication of animals. There are various factors distinguishing Neolithic period from Paleolithic and Mesolithic cultures. They mainly include creating tools and weapons made from horns and stones, the introduction of metal tool, the dependence on domesticated plants and animals, settlement in permanent small villages and the appearance of such crafts as pottery and weaving. This article compares and contrasts how the Neolithic people use a number of strategies in New Stone Age. The New Stone Age followed Paleolithic Period and it precedes the Bronze Age. During the Neolithic Age, different kinds of animals were tamed, which showed their relationship with the humans just as in the Old Stone Age. For example, first, dogs were wolves that hunted the humans at their campgrounds. They came to realize later that the wolf puppies could be tamed and coached to hunt other wild animals. The dog’s strains that grew eventually showed skills in controlling herds like sheep. In addition, the first domesticated animals were sheep, goats and pigs in the Middle East around 8500 and 700 B.C. (Lavin, 2011). However, the horned wild cattle, which could defend themselves and could run faster, were not tamed. On the contrary, some archeologists argue that domesticating animals were in the beginning motivated by spiritual views rather than the wish for clothing and a new source of food,...

...2 April 2014 Critical Studies- Exploration of a Local Environmental issue By -Danielle de Kock 12-012751 With our ever increasing population rate, so comes with it an increase in the damage we are inflicting on our planet. Often we hear of concerning environmental issues that are happening around us, but how much do we know and understand about these issues? Because these issues affect us and our future generations directly, it really is in our own best interest to ensure that we are fully informed and also that the sources that we receive information from are accepted in a critical manner. In this essay it is my intention to highlight one of the many environmental issues we are currently facing, to view it both locally and globally, and to critically analyse both sides of the argument presented. Furthermore, to view how social environments are directly affected by the issue and to look at a media campaign that it relates to it considering constructionism, claims making and framing. And then to conclude, having viewed all points, what my new (if at all different) assumptions are. Hunting, to survive, has been a part of human culture for centuries, in the past it has been a necessary tool and skill, however, today most people live in a world where it is no longer a required in order to provide basic needs to our families. Trophy hunting, as a sport, can be dated as far back to the early 1800s in southern and central Europe. Hunters would kill game for the sole purpose of...

...He is a mighty and strong man like no other. Beowulf believes in a fair fight, he is determined to prove his strength in combat like no other man. For example, when he fights Grendel he uses no weapons or armor because Grendel has no weapons or armor. It takes great amounts of courage and bravery to take on such a monster like Grendel with no weapons. "None of them expected he would ever see his homeland again or get back to his native place and the people who reared him. They knew too well the way it was before, how often the Danes had fallen prey to death in the mead-hall." This quote shows us that people doubted him especially because he used no weapons at all. Even against the circumstances, Beowulf manages to defeat Grendel. Beowulf is definitely a hero, but is he a superhero? A super hero is someone who has super human qualities that make them much more powerful than a regular person. When you read the story it shows in some times that Beowulf has some of these qualities. When he fights Grendel’s mother, he has to stay underwater for hours and the entire lake is infested with monsters that give him no problems at all. This must mean he has some special and...

...The Manhattan project was the first atomic bomb that was used during WWII. It was led by United states with help from the UK and Canada. It was used during 1942-1946 and commanded by Major General Leslie Groves. It costed about 2 million dollars to fund and make. The resarch took about 30 different states to make the bomb. During the war two types of bombs were being created a nuclear fission weapon using urianium and a implosion type weapon. With the fission weapon it only took .7 amout of natural uranium to create. Almost all of the buliding took place in Oak Ridge Tennesse.For the implosion type weapon it needed Plutonium it was seperated chemically from the uranium and later used to make the implosion type weapon.. Another use for the bombs was for gathering information on the germans nuclear project. Sometimes The Manhattan Project was used behind enemy lines in Europe. Even though the project was super secret soviet atomic speis were able to get through to the prgram....

...Compare and Contrast how feelings of fear and confusion are conveyed through the use of imagery and other poetic techniques. I am going to compare the use of poetic devices to portray fear and confusion in 3 different poems, they are; Patrolling Barnegat by Walt Whitman, On the Train by Gillian Clarke, and Storm on the Island by Seamus Heaney. These poems all portray a feeling of confusion, often it is linked with the theme of war. In Patrolling Barnegat, Walt Whitman uses repetition to enhance the power of the storm he is describing. "Wild, Wild the storm, and the sea high running" The repetition of wild in this line helps to enforce the power of the storm and nature. Whitman also uses personification in this line where he compares the movement of the sea to a person running, as if he is saying that the sea will move for nobody. He is also making it sound as if the sea is rushing to get somewhere as if it is on a mission. Whitman also incorporates rhyme in his poem. This gives his poem a strong rhythm and this rhythm ties in with the image of the rolling sea, and gives this image more effect. In Storm on the IslandSeamus Heaney also describes a vivid, powerful storm. He describes the storm like he has learnt from past experience. He describes preparing for the storm as if he has gone through it many times before. "Can raise a tragic chorus in a gale" Here Seamus Heaney is comparing the storm to a tragic chorus, which ...
