According to Mary Warren, a fetus is a genetic human being but is not a moral agent. It follows then that a fetus is not a part of the moral community. The fetus according to Warren lacks the required characteristics that qualify it to be a part of the moral community (LaFollette, 2014). It should, therefore, not receive moral protection. It follows then that it is right to terminate a fetus before it qualifies to be a moral being. For an individual to qualify to be a moral person rather than a genetic human, such a person must have ...

In the age of slavery, white American society considered African people to be benighted heathens with the other skin color, body structure, and inappropriate traditions and culture. Such conclusions were drawn mostly upon the widespread idea about the superiority of Whites and the absence of Christianity in Africa. American society prevented the assimilation of African-American slaves even after the generations of their presence on the American land and repudiated their equality to Whites even when they started to adopt Christian way of life. For Americans, African people had continued to be barbarians who had come to America to be ...

As an immigrant to the United States of America, I understand better than many native citizens just how complicated cultural identity can be. To someone who was born in this country and has lived here all her life, it might be difficult to understand that an individual's experiences are profoundly shaped by the culture where she grows up. The time I spent in Guyana as a young person gave me a strong personal identity and a powerful belief in God, both of which have affected how and why I learn. I was born in the South American country of ...

The proponents of public schools argued that it was a tool that would be used to bring about equality in the societies. This was to be achieved through bringing in children from different social backgrounds together to learn common values. Mann, a proponent argued that the institution would reinforce social stability by liberating students from their parents’ influences that failed to encourage discipline among them. The proponents believed that schools were important ...

There are many challenges faced by the small to medium sized enterprises as they try to keep track of the production process. Luckily, SAP Business One has provided a solution in which case the businesses can keep track of their inventory among other stage-by-stage processes that can be cumbersome. The availability of Bill of Materials (BOM) have contributed significantly to the ways in which enterprises manage, track, and record inventory across multiple warehouse locations, timely ordering and delivery as well as proper inventory accounting practices (Magal and Word, 2011). Four categories of BOM can be realized using the SAP ...

Worries about a decline in the birth rate are nothing new, at least in many developed nations. As early as 1909, Hoffman made it perfectly clear that a love for babies was not the reason that some in the U.S. fretted over the declining number of births. Rather, it was concern over the decreasing rate of births among “native white married women” while the “rate of reproduction [was] materially higher among the foreign element” (p. 676). Similar concerns are in evidence today in places such as Israel, where the comparatively high rate of births among the Arab population has ...

Work at home is an excellent way to make a living without leaving the house. Such type of employment is called freelance when the expert performs work far from the actual office where other employees work. Most often such work is chosen by people interested to depend on an intolerable early operating schedule, mothers who just had babies and decided not to come back from a maternity leave. Also, this refers to those individuals who look for an additional source of earnings. Most often work at home has a price-work payment of work as on a straight line it ...

Abstract:

Many people believe homeschooling is a bad idea for kids for a number of reasons, but college admission professionals are helping to change that idea. Colleges are actively seeking homeschooled students, as they have discovered advantages to admitting these students.

A study conducted in March of 2016 found that 2.3 million American students are homeschooled. Parents are choosing this option for a number of reasons, including the ability to build a customized curriculum for each child, protection against schoolyard dangers such as school bullying or shootings, bond-building between family members, and the ability to accomplish more than public school ...

Abstract

Nowadays, the role of English can be hardly overestimated. Being a truly global language, a pathway to greater opportunities and the window to broader knowledge and other cultures, English keeps widening the horizons of its possibilities and functions. At the same time, teaching English as a foreign language requires taking great responsibility and, therefore, it often appears as a truly challenging task. This research aims to consider the importance of teaching English as a second language and the implications that may arise during the learning process so as to define key tendencies and principles in ...

Which of the two major political parties in the United States is most likely to face alignment in the coming years and why? In the USA, many voters tend to identify with one political party. It can be because of the party’s political ideologies or identifiable group factors such as ethnicity, religion, and socioeconomic classes. However, the loyalties may be changed and the voters gravitate towards the opposing party (Brooks). Party realignment occurs when a big bloc of voters who previously voted for one party does a massive shift to the rival party and remains with it for ...

Language is an essential part of person’s life. It helps an individual to perceive the world and interact with other human beings. Still, it is not only the instrument, but the bearer of thousands years of human experience and wisdom. For this reason, there are words which are likely to make a strong impact over each person’s destiny and identity. I am not an exception, as once in my life I had an opportunity to experience the power of words on my own. I was sixteen, when my uncle told me: “Responsibility is accepting that you are ...

Words have different definitions according to experience of those receiving the words. The meaning of the words nature has different connotations, and these connotations have changed according to the changing views of society. Thus, the definition of the word “nature” is more fluid than words on a page might indicate. The etymology of the word comes from the Latin “nat,” meaning to be born. This word morphed into the more current - at least in terms of language - “natura,” which has several different meanings. The first meaning of this root is the idea of birth. From a religious ...

Introduction

Maslow calls resilience “ordinary magic.” But in reality, there is nothing magic at all about resilience. Resilience is not even a natural human intact or behavior, it is one that is learned over time and influenced by one’s environment. People are not born naturally resilient.

Infants are not naturally resilient

In a human being’s growth and development, various stages are prevalent, which feature a myriad of behaviors as well as perceptions from the society. These stages in human’s development include the prenatal stage, the childhood stage, the adolescence stage, adulthood stage and finally the old age. Although there are identifiable traits that human beings depict in each of these stages, it is prudent to note that not all experiences are shared. Particularly, the adolescence stage of human development strikes as a very important part of a human being’s life. The adolescence is the stage where humans ...

Reda portrays pensive sadness in their journey and he has nothing in common with his father. He reluctantly agreed to take the pilgrimage journey ...

The film explores the difference in experiences between a devout Muslim father and his secular son as they embark on a pilgrimage to Mecca. From the outset it is important to note that for a devout Muslim such as Reda’s father and a teenage son who is less concerned about religion. The relationship between the father and the son is tense given the fact that the former is a committed Muslim while the latter is not. Their differences in opinion regarding religion, particularly Islam, cause the son to be reluctant to drive his father from the south of ...

In the article, “Diverging Development: The Not-so-invisible Hand of Social Class in the United States”, Furstenberg said that social class is quickly beginning to shape the development of children, even before the child is born. Classism is alive in the form of less opportunities for lower social classes, forming a class that isn’t necessarily unintelligent, but uneducated. There exists a stereotype against those of lower social classes that these people do not strive to rise in the social hierarchy, and they often receive sub-par assistance, in part, through this prejudice. The article argues that social class is part ...

Higher education refers to the post-high school studies that occurs, especially at a college or university and it should be provided on a non-discriminative basis. Students from all social classes and races should have a right of access to higher education. In other words, higher education should be equally accessible to all, based on the capacity available as well as qualifications of the eligible students. As Altbach, Patricia and Robert (97) posit, higher education in some American colleges and universities has been inaccessible to some members of the society since resources and opportunities available are being directed mainly to ...

It was a beautiful sunny day with white clouds sailing in the blue sky. I kept walking enjoying the breeze blowing in the face. Lost in my thoughts, I suddenly realized it was very dark and I was lost in forest so deep where I could not even see the stars. Apparently I walked into a dimensional portal that transported me into a different place. I am no longer in a dark forest but I was now floating in the middle of a galaxy. The short time that I could not see the stars was replaced with the most ...

The demographic profile

As it has been indicated by Kumar et al (2014) in the scope of their study, the lion share of the statistical data on demographic profile of epilepsy from both developed and developing countries may be referred as a retrospective one. It means that there is an insignificant number of the studies, which pertain to the selected age group – children in the current realities of the 21st century (Garzon et al 237-245). As it was indicated by Garzon et al (2003), the core limiting factor in this case is the access to the professional health care services in the ...

Dear Mr. Pain: I am writing today to inform you of the necessity of a parent support room on my unit. I work on the NICU unit, where all my patients come with confused, attached, frightened parents. These parents have questions that cannot always be answered by my staff, whose first priority is to the infants in our care. We believe in a whole-family support system, which is why we believe a parent support room would supplement the information provided by our professional staff for parents who are searching for answers. I understand cost ...

How have your life’s experiences shaped your ‘inner value.' Discuss specific examples and explain the inner values associated with each. Growing up in a religious family, one of the greatest ‘sins’ I could ever commit was to lie or steal. These ‘sins’ usually warranted an extreme form of discipline which would ensure that it doesn’t happen again. As a result, I developed honesty from a young age. It was regarded one of the greatest values in my family, and it has become a personal trait that I am proud of to this day. Besides honesty, I came ...

Does war has differing effects among the affected? Is social justice guaranteed to those affected as a result of war? I decided to involve my father to find out how the family was affected by the Second World War to get the answers. “We thank God for the peace that we experience now as a family,” my father began. “Your grandfather was a veteran. He really suffered considering the success of the nation against his safety,” he added. “What triggered the war and what made my grandfather get involved in the war?” I asked.

The Exorcist is a 1973 horror film, directed by William Friedkin. A potent adaptation of William Peter Blatty’s novel, The Exorcist tells the story of a young girl who is possessed by a demon. The film caused a great deal of controversy when it was released as many people felt that the violence, blasphemy and young protagonist were inappropriate and damaging for audiences and for society. Admittedly, the film does not have the same shock value today as it did in 1973, partly because the cinematography and special affects now look dated and unrealistic, and partly because many ...

With two distinct suspension packages in a row adding up to 13 days, the immediate implication would be a change of Chrlie’s placement. This would involve movement from his current placement to an IEAS (Küpper & Rebhorn, 2007). The choice for an IEAS for Charlie’s placement will solely be left to his IEP team, after which he would be removed after the decision is made (Zehler et al., 2003).

Introduction As a child, the mind is easily in awe and wonder about the simplest or most basic experiences. Experts argue that this may be the case because children’s brains are wired differently compared to when they grow up as adults. When children grow up, their brain physiology and chemistry change so as to accommodate other sections of the brain that are necessary for adulthood. Consequently, individual loses her child-like wonder when experiencing ordinary events as an adult. Therefore, childhood is a time when the brain focuses on allowing the child to develop by ...

One of the main advantages of literature lies in its ability to communicate various cultural experiences and provide greater knowledge and deeper understanding of foreign traditions for the reader.

In addressing the issue of religious values, the authors of two books, Confucius Lives Next Door: What Living in the East Teaches Us about Living in the West and Children of Dust: A Portrait of a Muslim as a ...

Sending a child to a school or a kindergarten, all parents expect their children to study there and to make friendship with the peers. The children are supposed to spend a lot of time in these establishments, so the school or the kindergarten must become a place the child likes and feels comfortable. But sometimes the parents can notice that instead of being happy, active, and excited about the time spent at school, children come home sad, depressed, and low-spirited. Of course, there may be thousands of reasons – bad marks, problems at school, illness or just a bad mood. ...

Physical activity entails any action that causes the body to consume energy. Some activities result in high energy use while others result in low to moderate use energy consumption. The intensity of a person’s physical activity determines the type of physical activity factor used to calculate the energy requirements. According to Franz, Boucher and Pereira (2011), the physical activity factor may either be sedentary, low active, active or very active. A very active physical activity factor is calculated by BMR X 1.725 (Rolfes, Pinna & Whitney, 2014). BMR = 88.362 + (13.397 x weight (kg) + (4.799 x height (cm) (5.677 x ...

The social aspect of life is equally important as any other facet of human life. According to sociologists, an individual's social network is a mirror of his or her character and can tell about his or her aspirations. A social network comprises of the people who are close to an individual, who can share various aspects of life, and who a person turns to in case of a problem. The network can range from family members to friends, but they all have one thing in common, that they are joined by friendship. My social network comprises largely of my ...

Choosing between public school and private school education is a nightmare for many students and their parents.

But there are others who wish for an education with the easiest of means and this is where the debate between ...

As I went on to high school it stayed the same. Last year, however, I experienced a valley in my educational career. I had ...

Paper

It's not easy to maintain a balance between one's personal and professional lives. In reading the Case of the Holiday at the German advertising firm located in the United States, this becomes more evident than ever since their customers' deadlines are the most important parameter by which employees are evaluated. Of course, we all have to earn a living and sometimes, at the beginning of our careers, working 50 hours a week isn't uncommon. What does seem rather strange is the employee turnover that is rather high and which, in turn, suggests burnout. This is clearly not good for ...

This essay looks at my heritage and how I define myself by race through skin colour, family history, the advantages of privilege and the disadvantages of race. Finally, I look at what life or historical events have influenced my identity and what written works I have read in order to learn more about where I come from. When I was a child I did not know that my skin was the wrong colour. Being loved and sheltered as a child hides you from the nastiness of the world until you have to go out into it. My parents were ...

Milton Friedman believes that in a free society we must not forget that there are two types of freedom and they should not be confused. The proper role of the government is to consider these two ways of understanding freedom - which are freedom from coercion and freedom of ‘free of cost’- and help individuals reach their objectives, interfering with each other as minimum as possible. The government should create opportunities to help people achieve their goals, knowing of course that there is no absolute freedom in society. It is important to notice that for Friedman, the society ...

Question 1

The statement made by Gary Hirshberg means that consumers do not know the power they possess in influencing the type of products sold in stores. Stores take note of all the products that their customers are buying. Based on this information, stores understand what their customers want. As such, stores will try as much as possible to align with their customer preferences and stock the products that are most appealing to their customers. I agree with Hirshberg’s statement because most consumers think that the purchases they make are negligible and cannot have any significant effect on what the ...
