Essays on Contest

After evaluating all three of these excellent stories, I have determined that the winner of this fiction contest must be “Rock Springs” by Richard Ford. Telling the story of a father on the run from the law, attempting to start a new life for himself and his daughter, “Rock Springs” does a tremendous job of showcasing the unfairness of justice, and the inability for people to truly escape their sins. For its incredible command of character, its thematic richness, and the endlessly compelling prose, “Rock Springs” is the clear winner of this contest. Ford centers “Rock Springs” around the ...

A Personal Opinion In the United States, local government plays a vital role in the development of counties, municipalities, and districts. These governments work below the state level and usually serve as the “middleman” between the state government and the local residents.

There are crimes that are committed that are in a higher bracket and these crimes have a more serious sentence. People often commit a crime for a number of reasons.

Butler defends her position in her essay and states that academic writers need to use complex terminology in order to express themselves and to shape the meaning in the right way. She believes that there is a connection between the language and the meaning and that a term could be misunderstood if simple language would be used.

Introduction

The criminal justice system in the United States is complex and has a trove of advantages for the defendant in comparison to several other nations. The rights include the right to an attorney and the right to remain silent during a police interrogation. Apart from these rights, the process to find someone guilty and sentence that person is a tedious process. Unlike justice systems which rely on circumstantial evidence, the American Justice system insists on the presence of physical evidence to corroborate. In addition, a lengthy process ensures checkpoints in different areas to prevent convicting innocent people of crimes ...

That simple explanation shows that there is a close relationship between the two. The question this paper tends to answer is the close connection between the two but the fate of the mind after death.

This provision is referred to as the “the rule against Gharar . Given that the two parties negotiated in good faith, Noora was wrong by bringing in a sense of uncertainty.

Anytime a story is told by different people, there are understandable number of variations. This is especially true for Greek and Roman myths, which were written during vastly different centuries with opposite views of religion. The Greeks seemed to view their early gods as perfect yet still human with their interactions with mortals. The actions of the divine motivated and drove the course of the stories. The Romans, by contrast, put their gods on a pedestal and shifted the blame to the mortals. The writings of Hesiod and Ovid reflect these differences, depicting the actions in a perfect light ...

In a recent article for The Atlantic magazine titled “A World Without Work”, Derek Thompson (2015) describes as an impending “era of technological unemployment,” where automation as a result of technological advances will result in a steady and widespread decline in jobs, which Thompson characterizes as permanent. Thompson writes that the end of work does not necessarily signify a full on and impending end to employment as we know it in the economy. Neither does it suggest that the next decade will usher in uncontrollable levels of unemployment, either. What it suggests is the very real and live possibility ...

The prison system that currently exists today offers a retribution measure instead of corrective actions to assert and ensure that the convicted assailants, after serving their prison time, could go back to the community as responsible individuals. While this is the case, a documentary featured in 2005 and 2009 documents a different role of prisons. Aside from housing convicted individuals, it also serves as a modern day asylum for mentally-ill individuals convicted of committing a crime against society.

I am writing this memo as my personal take on the existing problem regarding the release of convicted mentally-ill individuals to the society after serving ...

The fundamental objective of governments is to protect their citizens. As the most discernable government arm, law enforcement authorities (police force) are on the forefront in the contest to protect the public from harm, and to maintain public order.

Xenophon, one of Socrates' students, is arguably one of the most pragmatic scholars ever.

In his book Cyropaedia “The Education of Cyrus”, Xenophon gives an account of an imaginary life of Cyrus the great. Though the book does not give accurate information about the real life of Cyrus the great, it helps inform various qualities that ...

This is depicted in the material culture that rests in national parks, museums and other reservoirs of cultural heritage. As people live in an area, rather than simply making do with the conditions of the place and what it supplies to them, they adapt to it by producing new forms of material culture through technology that eventually makes the place change. This shows how humans are more than just consumers of nature who preserve and perpetuate its conditions, but ...
