Benford's law also known as the first-digit law deals with the distribution of natural numbers in which it tends to major into their importance regarding significance. The law states that given any arrangement of natural numbers, the smallest number always seems to be the most significant while the largest number in the collection is always the least significant. Therefore, number 1 appears to be the most significant in any given combination of natural numbers 30% of the times. While on the other hand, number 9 appears only 5% of the times as the most significant number. The law states ...

Henry Fox was among the pioneers who inspired the art of photography just five years after its invention. By then, people were only used to drawings and thus photography was a completely new phenomenon. He published his first book which was mass produced for the audiences depicting how fast the art gained populace.

The population valued the level of creativity in the drawings and the uniqueness of the themes therein represented. In the ...

The Main Features of Introverts' behavior in the social environment

As is known, introversion is one of the most common categories or indicators to measure personality traits. Introverts are people whose personality traits are very different from those of other people, who can also be called extroverts. Introverts tend to accumulate their energy and direct it to their inner world, while extroverts waste their energy on the interaction with the outside world. If an extrovert needs a constant dialogue with the people, an introvert can successfully do without it. An introvert is capable of minimal contact, which is also necessary, but it happens rarely and only in the companies ...

A chronic juvenile offender is a young person having multiple criminal convictions that are spread over multiple criminal events (Baglivio, et al., 2014). The young offenders are either 11 years and younger having committed ten offences and have been arrested within twelve months or between 12 and 15 years with 15 offences and have been arrested over a duration of eighteen months. These offenders are also responsible for majority of the violent crimes (Fox, et al., 2015).

Challenges faced by MCOs regarding price variations and ways of overcoming these challenges

Challenges Utilization management acts as one of the most complex financial balancing act that managed care organizations (MCOs) try to utilize in an effort to manage health care costs and create value for future health care services (Bailit & Sennett, 1992).

Like many other United States National Parks, Badlands is unique unto itself with physical attributes that when they are seen one knows it is Badlands National Park. Located in an area rich with history, the Badlands was created and founded as a national monument in 1939 by President Roosevelt before officially becoming a national park in 1978 (Steiner, 1993). The landscape of buttes, ravines, and hills found in the midst of the prairie of Southwestern South Dakota influenced the Lakota Sioux to call the area, ‘mako sica’ or ‘badlands’ (“South Dakota Legends,” 2003). The Sioux Pine Ridge reservation lies ...

Benefits and drawbacks of VAT

As a taxing system, VAT has been used globally since the 1950’s and it presents unique benefits and drawbacks in itself. First, VAT is beneficial in generating income for governments which is important to cover government expenses as Stiglitz and Rosengard, (2015) observe. Since VAT is vast and is imposed to most produced goods and services, most governments regard it as money production engine. Through this taxation system also, tax evasion is minimized. Consequentially, a reliable income source is achieved by governments. Through value added tax system, it is also possible to enter into regional protocols (Pomeranz, 2015). ...

Throughout human history there has always been crime, from the most petty of crimes to the most heinous of criminal injury, abuses and murder.

These are killers who torture, dismember and murder victims in very specific and very ugly ways that are an extension of the killer’s needs. There have been many serial killers who have become famous for ...

There are several studies that support and propose the use of physical exercise as a health intervention for mitigating obesity and improving health. Apart from obesity, there are several health risks and diseases associated with low or lack of physical exercise. While the lack of physical is not the original cause of poor health and increased the prevalence of obesity, it plays a significant role in encouraging the prevalence (Sallis et al. 732). As a consequence, physical activity has been proposed as a health intervention for poor health and mitigation of obesity. Obesity occurs as a result of energy ...

It is difficult to make someone believe in something unprecedented, but the church was able to do it. It is difficult to keep the influx of non-believers, but the church was always doing so until the freedom of speech and thought, of course. Many simply believe, without even thinking about religion as such. Religion is a kind of reunion of the broken relationship with God, or lifestyle based on a belief in the supernatural power. Religious ideas, rules, basics are described in the sacred books, which allegedly have been dictated by God. Of course, no one can currently prove ...

Antibiotics and Animals

In an article, Maggie Fox tells that when cattle are fed with tetracycline, a commonly used broad-spectrum antibiotic, their manure starts producing more methane than normal, thereby resulting in global warming. A study published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B shows that antibiotics kill those bacteria that can compete with methane-producing microbes. Farmers have been warned to stop feeding their cattle with antibiotics, which can also help the animals to grow faster, but can also increase the production of antibiotic resistant “superbugs”. Fox tells that the guts of all animals including human beings are filled with microbes ...

1) Ruth’s original name is Rachel Deborah Shilsky, a Jewish name – when she converted to Christianity after her mother’s death, she gave up that name, which “had to die in order to for me, the rest of me, to live,” most notably to avoid anti-Jew prejudice against her (McBride 2). 2) In this metaphor, Ruth likens her father to a fox – an animal that is extremely crafty and smart. By calling him ‘a fox, especially when it came to money,’ Ruth compliments her father for his intelligence and craftiness, presumably being extremely fiscally responsible and able to ...

Walt Disney Pictures released the 3D animated Zootopia in 2016 (IMDb). Directed by Rick Moore and Byron Howard, the film takes place in a city occupied by animals that act and speak like humans. While directed toward children, the film also has adult humor; for instance, while doing a math problem, Judy Hopp states, “I mean, I am just a dumb bunny, but we are good at multiplying.” Regardless of the humor and juvenile presentation, the timely theme of Zootopia is racial prejudice.

Drivers for Change

The acquisition of Whirlpool over Maytag resulted in complementary advantages since Maytag shareholders received both cash and Whirlpool stock while Whirlpool expanded its product and service offerings (Fox, 2006). The acquisition effect is an increase in brand portfolio variety and potential improvement in production efficiency (Whirlpool, 2005, p.7). However, this acquisition occurred during one of the most challenging external environments due to a continuing increase in both material and oil-related costs (Whirlpool, 2005, p.6). This was further worsened by a decline in consumer demand within its U.S. market (Whirlpool, 2006, p.5). Whirlpool countered by increasing the number of new ...

The industrial revolution changed the face of American society in a multitude of ways, not least of which was the role of the government in the relationship between businesses and workers. The emancipation of slaves in the aftermath of the Civil War irrevocably altered the way aspects of the economy operated—especially that of the Southern states and of the agricultural sector. From that point clear through to the present, the relationship between employer and employee has been in constant question and flux, with labor unions and government regulations having significant impacts on the overall state of workers’ rights ...

America is a diverse nation with people of all most all ethnic origins in the world. With this in mind, one would expect the country to be racially accepting. On the same note, a person would expect the cultural differences, races, religions, and other factors such as sexual orientations to bring the residents in the nation together. However, this has not been the case. Research shows that discrimination is one social problem that many people in the country have to deal with. The aspect of discrimination has created a notable social issue since many people are discriminated against on ...

Prior to and during the Second World War, Japanese Americans were seen as the enemy. This is of course due to the fact that Japan was the main antagonist of the United States in the Pacific war theater. In fact, between 110,000 and 120,000 Japanese Americans were incarcerated in camps in the mainland US, most of them American citizens at the time. Many of them were forcibly relocated from their homes in the US West Coast and moved to relocation areas that were like military camps surrounded by barbed wires from which there was no escape (Ogawa ...

Happiness is one of the most sought, but yet one of the most elusive humankind’s wishes. The greatest thinkers in history have all touched the idea of the happiness, and possibly how to attain it. Many Buddhists will avoid any activity that causes pleasure, since they believe that positive physical sensations distract the brain from achieving meaningful moral clarity. In the Western world, the Utilitarian theory that happiness derives from the most amount of pleasure minus the least amount of pain, has really taken off in the last 50 years (with advertising suggesting that instant and temporary satisfaction ...

ABSTRACT

Education is very important in every aspect. Some people say that the school is a second home for the students and it is very likely to be true. Students and teachers spend many hours together, while parents seem to make just a small contribution to what the teaching-learning process intends. The very mere principle of the symbiotic relationship between the teacher and students may be found in. This essay will try to explain the merging point that goes beyond the classroom, where students get what they learnt at school and apply it to real life situations. There are many ...

Interview

Interview The aspects of cultural privileges and stereotypes come in when discussing the differences between the subordinate and the majority people in the society. In the United States, for instance, several aspects act as differentiating factors between two different categories of individuals, for example, the physically challenged and persons with no disabilities, the whites and the people of colour among others. Hence, after findings found from interviewing Jordan Gallacher, a blind United States citizen, differences arose between these two different parties. The society tends to categorize its population due to the cultural stereotypes which are the beliefs that control ...

McDonalds has come to create a network in both Italy and Russia. Italy seems to have better balance of payment and government balance indices, interest rate, trade policy instruments and not needing to lose over currency rates while dealing with Eurozone importers, and even unemployment and GDP growth rates. However, unemployment and the lack of growth indicating poor economic performance and social welfare situation may advantage the brand in Russia through better low-cost labor availability and consumer reorientation on less expensive restaurant offerings. Overall, neither of the country is the ideal market for the brand, yet both have their ...

Introduction

The situational leadership theory implements a repeatable procedure that leaders can use to leverage and effectively influence their subordinate’s behaviour. The theory helps leaders understand the relationship between the degree of readiness subordinates exhibit and an effective leadership style for completing a specific task. The style of situational leadership chosen by a leader utilizes a combination of supportive and directive behaviour. Supportive behaviour can be characterized as providing guidance and support and directive behaviour can be described as an order. Hersey and Blanchard described 4 different leadership styles on the basis of supportive and directive supportive behaviour. These ...

The government has two primary means to exploit the media, namely access and control. In terms of access, the government’s ability to exploit and manipulate the media is based on two facts of life. First, government actions are acutely important to almost every facet of life. Accordingly, people, business, and society have normal interest in knowing what the government, and people in government are saying and thinking. Second, the vast majority of society learns about what the government is thinking and saying from the media. As a consequence, the government can influence the media by providing or denying ...

Mathematical model.

In 1985, Kallen, Arcuri and Murray (377-393) presented a simple mathematical model for the spread of the rabies epidemics to approximate the minimum width of a break and enable the control of the spatial progression of rabies.

Features and assumptions of the model.

The model developed by Kallen, Arcuri and Murray (377-393) was based on a deterministic approach where the fox populations were categorized into two groups, namely infective and susceptible foxes.

Population/Patient Problem

Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) are a significant problem both in the US and in the world (Krein et al., 2012). These infections are not only common, but they also present cost implications and patient safety issue to healthcare facilities. In the United States, about 2.5 million HAIs are recorded each year (Fox et al., 2015). They affect about 5-10% of hospitalized patients resulting in approximately 90,000 death and a total healthcare expenditure of about $4.5 billion annually (Krein et al., 2012; Fox et al., 2015). Fatal HIAs are mostly preventable and are a result of substandard healthcare services.

Hospital Acquired Infections Health care system is a very dynamic field that changes periodically; the practices that were deemed to be the most effective a decade ago may be rendered less useful or obsolete in the present day care. The changes are basically due to changes in patient needs, the emergence of new technologies, improved science research findings that develop new care methods as well as changes in healthcare policies and regulations. For example in the United States, the increase in the size of an aging population means an increase in number of patients that will suffer from chronic ...

The Gender Discrimination in Criminal Justice System

Introduction Traditionally, women have not been viewed as criminals because of their less aggressive nature, making the act of crime to be mainly associated with the male gender. There are several theories brought forth to explain why the female gender would, or would not engage in crime. The theories, however, do not provide satisfactory explanations to the phenomenon leading to counterarguments. Also, the criminal justice of the United States of America has been viewed as discriminatory because it fails to address the gender needs of female offenders whose number has increased over time. This essay discusses the historical perspectives, ...

The following is a look at the statistics showing the existence of the problem, followed by recommendations on how the issues can be addressed. Studies show that there ...

Introduction:

Identity is a construct that encompasses the way people think about themselves and their role in the larger social environment. Human identity is enacted through social interactions with other people as well as the relationship built between them. Therefore, identity can be understood to be containing both individual and personal differentiators and components related to someone’s role in social groups (Berzonsky, pp. 55). Absolute identity characteristics can be written in the body such as ethnicity or gender. Therefore, the way people behave reflects on their behavior, beliefs and affiliations. Communication technologies and online information have shaped the process ...

Broadcasting Rights of FIFA World Cup

Introduction Going closer to our topic, it seems worthwhile noting that FIFA is rightfully considered to be the most powerful and influential football organization that reveals as a steering body for football, indoor soccer, and beach football. Consequently, all football competitions including world cups (they are generally assumed to be most wanted ones for spectators) are performed under the duly patronage of this worldwide organization. A great demand for sports events has undoubtedly formed favorable conditions for both organizations (fn. – in our case it is FIFA).

Company and Situation

In the period following the late 1990s, Thomas (2002) mentions that Enron Company was regarded as one of the outstanding, as well as, most innovative companies in the American state. The entity continued with its bid of building new power plants and operating other gas lines. It was also well-known for its unique methods of trading. However, all these prospects came tumbling down when it admitted to having misrepresented its incomes and that the company’s value of equity was less than the one stated in the balance sheet.

In the 1930’s, and then again in the 1960’s a program was enacted called food stamps. The original 1930’s program allowed people to purchase $1 in orange stamps and receive $.50 in blue stamps ("A Short History Of SNAP | Food And Nutrition Service", n.p.). Food stamps were ended after the depression ended because there no longer was a profound need for it.

There has been a societal shift in how we deal with children and failure. From every participant in sport getting a trophy no matter what, to schools implementing a no fail policy, children are now cushioned from failure in a way that previous generations have not been. Despite the desire to keep children self-esteem high by not giving them failing grades, this is an injustice for the child since they never learn how to fail and then try again. In fact, it would be for the students benefit to do away with no-fail policies within the school system. Ultimately, ...
