[. . . .] Clearly starting any new program, especially one that involves poverty in a community, evolves over time. For Canada, he was always willing to cut his losses and change his plan. But the big picture for Canada -- his mission -- and this is one of the most impressive points of the book, is the betterment of not just Harlem, but of Black America. "In a very real way, he is trying to deliver his race as much as he is trying to save a neighborhood," Tough explains on page 99 of the book.

In conclusion, it is informative, enlightening, and educational to read Tough's book because such a powerful story about education and poverty hasn't been told in quite the same way previously. Whether other… read more

Business Ethics a Contradiction in Terms? Case Study … Paper Icon

Business Ethics" a Contradiction in Terms?

"Business Ethics" is not at all a contradiction in terms. Sometimes it may seem that way, but that is only because business dealings often present opportunities to pursue profit in ways that are unethical. The term "loop hole" describes situations in which the applicable laws are not fully capable of ensuring against every conceivable form of business strategy that might be unethical in principle. However, that is not to suggest that business in general is necessarily an unethical process; rather, it only illustrates that business law is an ever-evolving set of complex concepts that are imperfect. In principle, business is governed by ethical assumptions and, in modern times, those ethical assumptions are codified in law. Sometimes, laws designed in… read more

Person Goes or Whatever a Person Sees Essay … Paper Icon

person goes or whatever a person sees, reads or hears, whether from billboards on the streets or subways to advertisements on the Internet, television, radio, newspapers and magazines, the images that are always apparent are mostly scantily clad men and women with physiques and looks that are "to die for." The media seem to be projecting the message that people should and must have body images that are sculpted and resembling top athletes and international fashion models. This kind of advertising is so prominent even if the products or services being promoted have nothing to do with a person's looks or physical -- you want to buy a house, check out the real estate ad with a couple who are in the best of shape!… read more

Hacktivism and How it Reflects a Particular Tension in American Culture Research Paper … Paper Icon

Hacktivism

One Expression of the Haves vs. The Have-Notes

Once upon a time, not very long ago and in our very own galaxy, hackers just wanted to have fun. Hacking -- breaking into someone else's computer system -- began primarily as a way for computer geeks to show off their talents. Hacking into another system was a puzzle, an intellectual challenge, akin to a mathematical problem with the additional appeal of breaking social rules of a world that generally rejected the type of individual most inclined to become a hacker.

Teenage boys -- the primary demographic of the first generation of hackers -- had very little power in terms of overall social structures. Hacking provided them a higher status within a community of their own… read more

Real America? Interestingly Enough Book Review … Paper Icon

[. . . .] Sexual laxness is not simply relaxing one's morality, but it is replacing the idea of oneself with the "selling of the sexuality of the person," as opposed to the myriad of other factors that make up that person's ability to actualize. This gap, then, causes a sense of cognitive dissonance that, like a cancer from within, eats away at American society.

Chapter 6- In "Pundits, Social Scientists, and the Flaming Liberals," Gosine attacks those pundits who believe they have the answers to all of America's problems. Gosine does not discriminate as to conservative or liberal -- he is equally as critical of the far right of Rush Limbaugh as he is of the hyper-religious of Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson. Equally of concern are those… read more

Interview Family Member of Someone With a Disabled Child Term Paper … Paper Icon

interviewed two parents at my church who have a son who has had a challenging childhood so far. "Bobby" is ten and in fifth grade. His parents, Judy and Dave, have been struggling for years to get an accurate diagnosis so they could find the kind of help that would benefit most.

I asked them to describe Bobby to me. They told me that they finally got a solid diagnosis on Bobby, and that they feel the diagnosis explains a great deal. In the past they said Bobby had been diagnosed as having AD/HD, and put on medications for that. While the medication helped some, they felt that more was going on. Bobby had social problems. Many children with AD/HD have social problems, they pointed… read more

Winter Dreams the Tension Essay … Paper Icon

[. . . .] The themes of "Winter Dreams" are relevant today because striving and social climbing remains part of American life. The contradictions between the values of being a 'self-made person' on one hand, and desiring to mimic the lifestyle of old money can be seen on every college campus today. Many wealthier students who do not have to take out student loans have the luxury of studying subjects that do not automatically prepare them for a career. Poorer students must worry about employment after college, and getting a marketable degree. Many of them study similar subjects as their richer friends, such as English and Art History, and find themselves upon graduating with little hope of a job in an anemic market.

[. . . .] At the same time, the use of the word seems designed to invoke the idea of being a "loser." All of these associations cling to the word, and all seem to work towards the establishment of meaning in the lyrics -- since the next line moves on to describe a girl in the third person, it is entirely possible that all three of these associations with "lose" are intended. The girl is described in poetic language of pun and paradox: the pun occurs in "overbored," which -- to a listener -- is indistinguishable from its homonym "overboard." Either way, though, the effect is paradoxical: a girl who is in over her head is unlikely to seem self-assured, although a girl who finds the party tedious… read more

Tibet Buddhism Essay … Paper Icon

diversity of landscape in Tibet and the diversity of the Tibetan people.

Why do the Tibetans have such a strong and enduring relationship with Buddhism?

Geography impacts the character of a society, affecting settlement patterns and hence social and political structures. Thus, Tibetan regions conducive to farming gave rise to stable settlements and stratified societies whereas nomads also thrived in the region's diverse landscape. Geographic diversity would impact the relations between ethnic groups with greater or lesser access to resources. Relative isolation could also inhibit communication and trade with external cultures such as the Chinese. However, even within a specific ethnic group such as the Amdo, both nomads and farmers coexist and enhance Tibetan diversity.

Abundant natural resources in some parts of Tibet allowed a… read more

Price Beauty? Term Paper … Paper Icon

[. . . .] These ideas provide an excellent overview of that Age's understanding of the subject. In the second edition of his Enquiry (1759),

Burke addressed the idea of Beauty, by which he meant "that quality or those qualities in bodies by which they cause love, or some passion similar to it." Burke's goal of identifying the physiological relationship between external objects and their emotional apprehension is most apparent in Part Four [of the Enquiry], where he hoped to "discover what affections of the mind produce certain emotions of the body; and what distinct feelings and qualities of body shall produce certain determinate passions in the mind."

Physical beauty, therefore, was seen as inspiring an emotional response; specifically a feeling of love and affection on the part of… read more

Chattel Slavery and Race Relations Term Paper … Paper Icon

Slavery and Race Relations

Slavery was inconsistent with the ideals incorporated in the Constitution and yet it was allowed by the founding fathers because they wanted to preserve the Union at all costs. We must here understand that it is absolutely impossible for a country or any institution to operate with conflicting values. Slavery was an abominable practice, which should have been abolished immediately after the formation of United States Constitution because it clashed with the ideals of freedom and liberty for all. However while North had some reasons to oppose it, South had numerous others to maintain this oppressive institution.

It is important to bear in mind the arguments that were given against and in favor of slave trade and this will help us… read more

The Black Swan is a movie full of psychosis, adolescence and ballet. It has the aspects of a girls struggle to become an adult and her confusion between choosing between the right and the wrong.

Apart from dancing on glass, Nina is also shown to have self-mutilitative behavior. This is visible when she is seen with multiple scratches and injuries on her back.

Stress Management in the Caregiver Research Paper … Paper Icon

[. . . .] A study published by the Nuffield Trust (Williams et al. 1998) highlighted what had long been a subject of interest in the caregiver media: the levels of stress, sickness, absenteeism and burnout among professional caregivers. This report, from an authoritative and reputable organisation, brought together much of the prevailing evidence about the alarming state of the government funded workforce, which, despite a growing independent sector, is still responsible for giving over 90% of health caregiver. The report states that 'for the sake of good management and from simple compassion, both we and the Government should view these findings with due alarm, and accept shared responsibility for working quickly together to develop a program for action.

Holistic Relationship Marketing Essay … Paper Icon

[. . . .] In doing and creating all these systems to better support customer relations and external relationship marketing these same businesses began to notice a missing link in the process, which was that employees who were not happy and invested found it far more difficult than those who were to be positive in every customer relations encounter. From this recognition came a new urgency of customer relations quality development and also a new demand for relationship marketing that turned inward to build employee and even supplier relationships to greater levels, hence internal RM (Lee & Trim, 2007; Herington, Johnson & Scott, 2006, p. 364).

Morality Then and Now

The technological era that we as a society have entered has completely altered the way that morality and proper behavior is viewed and expressed. Before the Internet was as freely used as it is now, there was more control as to what children and teenagers had access to. Now, because of the rapid advancement in the exposure of the Internet, everyone has access to just about anything -- both appropriate and inappropriate. It is this unregulated exposure that has tainted morality. Cultures who are more open about such things as sexuality or who are not so religiously guided, can now influence and expose people who are a bit more conservative.

[. . . .] I picture myself being led on into vaster...depths with every forward step. The task undertaken seemed to grow less with the completion of the early stages; now, in anticipation, it seems almost to increase as I proceed (ibid., 288)"

Foreign affairs (Rome's expansion) shaped the social order at home (the struggle of the orders), and vice versa. For instance, in Mellor, Livy, ambassadors were sent out from Rome to Athens to study their laws, a situation that led directly to the formation of a law code in Rome which helped to quell domestic disturbances (ibid., 215-217). Livy's thesis of a struggle of the orders is an over- simplification of a highly complex series of events that had no single cause. This can be seen as… read more

Factors that Mitigate Risk and Protect Children from negative Life OUtcomes

One of the unfortunate consequences of the human condition is that some children will not enjoy the same level of support and resources as their peers because of various socioeconomic and family situational factors. Nevertheless, history has demonstrated time and again that some children are able to overcome whatever adversities life throws at them to emerge as well adjusted and intelligent members of society who go on to achieve their personal and professional goals irrespective of these challenges and obstacles. These children, though, appear to be the exception rather than the rule, and it is reasonable to suggest that children who are at risk will suffer from these experiences rather than benefit… read more

Ethical Issues in Business

The Duty to Report Legal Violations:

There is no question as to whether one has an affirmative duty to report the situation if, and to whatever extent, one believes in good faith that the accounting practices are illegal. In fact, the belief that they violate statutory law specifically intended to regulate the industry makes this scenario considerably easier to analyze from an ethical perspective than a similar scenario but involving apparent ethical violations that you knew or believed were completely legal.

The illegal fraudulent manipulation of corporate balance sheets to misrepresent financial information and to conceal the truth from industry regulators violates multiple lines of ethical thought.

In the world that we inhabit, we are free to choose how we live our lives and where we go with it, but at the same time, we are also chained by certain restrictions. These restrictions place a limit on the extent to which we have control over our lives as well as our behavior. It is not possible to exercise complete control over our individualism. There are some invisible and visible forces that affect our sense of individualism. It is also more sensible and realistic to heed these forces and acknowledge their presence… read more

The Lost Continent is, truly, one of these wonders - a city made of both earth and sea, created by Triton, Poseidon, Atlas, or whatever other ancient God created it as a point of union between the earthly and the divine, the surface and the underneath. What is striking, is that within Western culture, Plato is one of the first known mentions of Atlantis in a theoretical discourse - completely fictional account - used to explain the nature of the physical universe. but, the concept of the Lost Continent, whatever the name assigned, is one that has been shared by scientific exploration, philosophical discourse,… read more

For example when Mistrust and Timorous threaten Christian, he thinks of the alternative escape routes present to him and employs logic to choose the safer route. (36) On another occasion, when he encounters danger in the shape of Fiends, he uses faith as declares "I will walk in the strength of the Lord God" (52).

Existentialism 'I Should Seek Term Paper … Paper Icon

[. . . .] If it's raining, the teacher might bring in a movie to teach a unit on cinematography or on a specific theme. The existentialist classroom also incorporates current events as a means to expand the students' awareness of their universe. Furthermore, the teacher imparts knowledge regarding psychological and social coping skills; the existentialist class is not about rote memorization of specific materials but rather on the big picture: the meaning of life and the life purpose behind education.

The existentialist views humanity as integral in the perception of reality. Rather than see a physical universe "out there" that exists independently of the person as a realist would, the existentialist knows that human consciousness alters reality. Human beings are therefore active creators and participants in the universe.… read more

[. . . .] Taking life for granted has some benefits I suppose. Not thinking about death allows one to focus more on the present. For example, you can stress out about school, work, friends, or loved ones and what they are doing. However, to live a virtuous life you must embrace the entire range of living and the development process that people must go through; including death. Without the consideration of death and an understanding of its eventuality, you are not really living a life that encompasses the full range of experiences and the experience is really what life is all about.
