1 A Defense of Plato Term Paper … Paper Icon

[. . . .] " With this in mind, consider the viewpoint of W.H.D. Rouse: "Robbery and violence are normally called 'injustice,' but when they are practiced. . . by rulers, they are justice. . . When we consider ordinary citizens "the just man comes off worse than an unjust man". . . Since the rulers do not obey the principles. . . they are. . . "unjust." 2
Therefore, Plato's two syllogisms seem to be dependent upon one another and often converge into a single philosophical paradigm. In relation to the prime assertion, the question of whether knowledge of the Good is politically relevant can be answered in the affirmative, for if Plato had his way, society would be organized and operated by the so-called "philosopher kings" who… read more

Beatles Next Month Research Paper … Paper Icon

[. . . .] Barbra Streisand is still the female recording artist with the highest-selling number of records, ever, and has continued to have a No. 1 record in every decade for the last 40 years. She has asked, "Why am I so famous? What am I doing right? What are the others doing wrong?" ("Divas -- The Site"). That answer seems obvious. She has a determination and drive to succeed that many other entertainers lack.

In conclusion, I have found that these three remarkable women, one of whom shared my exact birthday, and two who have birthdays on either side of my birthday, have shown the world that talent alone can't make you a success. You have to have a passion and drive to succeed. You have to… read more

Oroonoko Is an Arousing Essay … Paper Icon

[. . . .] Imoinda is the object of his affection, and in her he espies his female counterpart and his equal. Oroonoko's brash confidence causes him to pursue Imoinda in spite of the King's claiming her as his own. He is willing to stand up for what is right, even if it leads to his downfall. The conflicts brewing around him do not deter Oroonoko from loving Imoinda, and for doing whatever it takes to preserve their mutual dignity. In doing so, Oroonoko exposes some of the most heinous hypocrisies inherent in the slave trade. A core hypocrisy is that slave owners and traders claim to be Christian. The narrator points out that Christians practice a barbaric form of slavery, by purporting absolute ownership of a human being.… read more

Heterosexism and Reproductive Privilege A2 Coursework … Paper Icon

[. . . .] Again though, the main thing that I got from this work of literature was a feeling of perverseness. The author appears to be trying to romanticize something that is not possible, not logical and, in my humble opinion, something that is not desirable. There are certainly a lot of unpleasant things that have historically occurred when women have had to be in relationships with men. But removing procreation from the time honored, natural means of the relationship between a man and a woman should not be changed, and it is a little weird to hear the author so fervently wish for something that I regard as perverse.

What Everhart seems to desire is alluded to in a few of the passages from Bell's work. Bell… read more

Negotiation Process Essay … Paper Icon

[. . . .] We did come to see that some, if not all, of the new systems the ERP software company wanted us to adopt would be useful for our organization. "Compromises usually occur in win-lose situations -- when there is a fixed pie to be divided up, and whatever one side gets, the other side loses. In compromise situations, neither side gets all of what they really want, but they each make concessions in order to reach an agreement that is acceptable to both" (Spangler 2003). I would not necessarily characterize the compromise at my organization as a lose-lose situation, given that my organization did not feel that it was forced to accept any totally unnecessary 'bundled' items.

However, negotiating the specifics of the package was only… read more

U.S. in the Interwar Years Essay … Paper Icon

[. . . .] "

Again, war was proving to be a racket, and the racketeers were proving to be nicely nestled on Wall Street.

But the banks were not the only ones escalating the war's approach. American corporations were involved in funding and revitalizing the German war machine. Prescott Bush, grandfather of George W. Bush, was just one among several "American capitalists with ties to Nazi counterparts."

These men were profiteers, whose corporations were represented by Sullivan and Cromwell, a firm run by the Dulles brothers John Foster and Allen (future head of the CIA). The interwar period proved to be a time of prime business-dealing, and American interests were not vested in peace but in making money -- by aiding the enemy and its rise to power… read more

Excellence in the Workplace Term Paper … Paper Icon

[. . . .] Any communication of course entails messages sent and messages received. The actual sending of a message involved "encoding" that message with both verbal and non-verbal cues; and the receipt of a message requires the receiver to decode the message. When a person is sending his or her message, and the receiver looks at a wrist watch, for example, that is a classic non-verbal cue that the communication isn't being received anymore (or the receiver is distracted), Quintanilla continues. Indeed, body language sends strong signals (feedback). That non-verbal cue (looking at a wrist watch) is called "feedback," and the message in this case (verbal) is the "channel" through which the communication was launched. In other words, feedback isn't always given using spoken language; a frown denotes… read more

Aristotle and Thrasymachus Aristotle's Theory Essay … Paper Icon

[. . . .] When someone is given all the money, fame, and power to do and to obtain whatever that person wants, he or she often misuses that. It can be easy to spend money unwisely, use fame to glamorize inappropriate or unacceptable causes or beliefs, and hold power over others to the point that those others are treated unfairly or unjustly. However, not everyone handles things that way. Some individuals address the situation in a very different way, by doing good things for others on a large scale. This is an excellent way to bring to light Aristotle's discussion of virtue as a habit and a mean. The habits a person develops in life, and the virtues he or she holds as being significant and important, if… read more

Unpaid Overtime Book Report … Paper Icon

[. . . .] However, lower-end workers should never be salary unless it is a special situation and it's not taking advantage of the person being classified as salary. Even part-time employees may be attracted by a salary payment so that their pay is consistent even if their hours swing wildly.

Conclusion

In the end, employers and employees need to be partners in a working arrangement rather than adversaries. The employee must understand that the employer needs a reliable employee that gets their job done while the employer should not take advantage of the fact that they do not have to pay overtime to certain people. The proper staffing levels and techniques can help avoid burning out employees while at the same time not spending too much on labor… read more

Counseling Family Counseling Approach Research Paper … Paper Icon

[. . . .] The counselor has a key role in facilitating families to achieve change hence he is the 'hero' of the change story. Having said that, this hero requires a suitable entry as well as exit point. The counselor needs to motivate change at one point and to motivate stability at the other. It is much more difficult to motivate and help bring change than saying this. The counselor's first job is to listen to the family members and their problems and then to study the family system. Often unsaid facts are more critical as well as true than the stated facts. The conflicts can only be solved by proper counseling that is based on true facts.

Woman Philosophy Term Paper … Paper Icon

Women's Philosophy

The issue of gender and sexism received a boost during the early years of the 20th century, when women began to claim their right to vote. Over the centuries, the fight has evolved into various manifestations, including women's battle for equal work and pay, the same civil rights as men, and simply the right to develop themselves as fully as men are allowed to do. Although the battle against sexism continues to this day, it would be foolish not to recognize the many advances that women have made in their battle for social and professional equality. Indeed, today it is no longer unusual to see women in professions like the law and medicine, or o see them in leadership and entrepreneurial positions. Although… read more

[. . . .] Inez also lacks the ability to manage Garcin looking at her because of the fear of being judged. Inez thinks that it is her role to judge thus accusation of face-stealing (Jean-Paul Sartre et al. p. 96). Garcin is a reflection of mere existence thus reduction of the Inez's feelings of autonomy. Garcin focuses on the expression of the collective interactions as they are bound together despite the fact that Inez still focuses on the making of her own decisions. This is evident in the expression of failure to abandon the past experience and interactions by Estelle and Garcin. Despite this decision, Inez sees her past as an aspect of meaningless encounters thus the opportunity to focus on the modern and present existence. She chooses… read more

Morality and the Claims of Utilitarian Essay … Paper Icon

morality and the claims of utilitarian moral philosophy, and discusses the question of whether moral sacrifice can be justified. Much has been written by myriad scholars and philosophers about morality and utilitarianism, and the best way to sort through those approaches is to carefully recount and critique what has been written and how one philosopher's viewpoint contradicts or embraces another seemingly valid viewpoint.

What is Morality?

Morality is a difficult word to pin down exactly; as this section of the paper clearly explains, morality -- and what is moral -- is an elusive concept. The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (SEP) explains that "morality" can be used two ways: one, as a description as to how codes of conduct can be presented to society or to… read more

[. . . .] The term leadership, of course, brings up additional theories, viewpoints and modes of operation, which then led me to even more research.

I discovered that I was both a coach and a leader, and aspired to be more of both through knowledge and experience. Indeed, leaders and coaches, whatever the title is really mentors within the context of a particular organization or activity. In governmental service, leaders help communicate policy, but in that, they mentor staff, communicate with other stakeholders, and model the type of behavior that engenders confidence. In the workplace, we may define leadership as a coaching model, or a framework to use as an underlying structure to build teamwork, confidence, improve performance and behavior.

[. . . .] If the substance were to be moved from a prohibition idea to one involving a regulatory control system conditions would most probably improve, both from the authorities and for individuals consuming the substance (Rahtz 97).

In addition to preventing the government from coming in possession of a significant amount of money as a result of money paid through taxes, anti-marijuana laws also encourage criminal behavior. Marijuana represents an income of $8.6 billion annually to Mexican cartels, an estimated 60% of the traffickers' total revenue." (Rahtz 97) Such actions provide cartel members with the opportunity to fund other activities such as terrorism and human trafficking. By legalizing marijuana the government would become able to divert funds away from criminals and into the country. A whole new… read more

Will Divorce Rates Decrease With Stricter Divorce Laws?

Marriage is the social and legal communion between two spouses that publically declare their love and loyalty to one another till the end of their live. However, the duration of these life-long vows to honor and love each other are normally cut short by divorce. Divorce is whereby all legal duties and responsibilities of marriage are dissolved. Divorce can occur due to many reasons. Over time, people change with their age, their personalities transform, and they react differently to circumstances that weren't present before. The romance becomes weary and wanes away over the years. Not all couples can handle the conflicts that are a part of almost every marriage (Denton). And… read more

Marriage Must Always Precede Ordination Essay … Paper Icon

[. . . .] Surprisingly, a practice that is clearly disallowed by the Scriptures and successive decrees, not only for priests, but for ordinary individuals as well, is tolerated in Romania (likely in other Orthodox countries as well, at the time). At the same time, a practice that could have been more easily to accept, in a logical argumentation, namely to allow widowed priests to marry, was not allowed until 1923, when a Pan-Orthodox Congress had to convene in order to solve this issue. It seems like a logical argument that you would want to renounce a tolerated, but wrong practice and replace it with something that could actually have comparatively more acceptance for the Scriptures.

After all, the main argument against marriage of widowed priests and deacons is,… read more

[. . . .] This bigotry was obvious in many aspects of human interaction, including in the legal system, particularly if a member of the minority culture was involved in or even suspected of an action against or with a member of the majority culture. According to sociologist Richard Brislan, there can be a danger when a stereotype becomes so ingrained that the population does not understand it as being a generality and instead accepts it as truth. He argues that:
