Failing never feels good when it happens initially. No one enters into a commitment with an intention to fail. Most people pursue a goal with the expectation to succeed. Unfortunately, failure is a phenomenon that cannot be avoided. Rather than perceiving failure as a negative event or incident, there is something quite valuable to learn when one fails. Without failure growth would be limited. I have heard many times throughout life that “we learn from our failures.” When I was younger I did not understand this concept, and even as I matured this idea did not sound appealing. However, ...

The European Union is the result of the flow of economic integration in the world. It was created in 1958 and became a powerful economic group. Within the framework of the Union, the benefits of mutual trade are established, the general economic policy is carried out, and restrictions on the movement of goods, capital, and labor are constantly removed (Krugman, Obstfeld, and Melitz, 2014). The creation of the EU was due primarily to the fact that in Western Europe after the Second World War, the contradiction between the international character of modern production and the narrow national and state ...

The Safe Havens of Global Cities In his article, “The West’s Major Cities are a Bulwark Against the Tide of Right-Wing Nationalism,” Ishaan Tharoor writes about the celebration in London of the Battle of Cable Street, which was a protest that had various groups coming together to prevent a group of fascists from marching over eighty years ago (Tharoor). It was a time when there was a dangerous level of hatred and anger directed at the Jewish communities in Europe (Tharoor). Indeed, the events taking place at the time of those original Cable Street protests, occurred in ...

Significant increases in the national debt, with no relief or plans to deal with the problem, and its effect on the economy An increase in national budget, with no relief or plans to deal with the problem, will result in a deficit, or more spending with less national input. Repercussions for a budget deficit can mean more borrowings for the national government from the private sector, such as the selling of bonds or gilts to the private sector. The debate over the budget deficit has two opposing views. The first one is that the deficit is destructive to the ...

Horse-run carts portrayed the streetscape right up until the commencement of the previous century, but the arrival of the vehicle, which Carl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler created separately of one another in the year 1886, instituted a totally fresh combination of needs as compared to those connected with horse-run carts – particularly where the suspension was a concern: it was essential to handle superior pace, without jeopardizing road travelers. Carl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler assumed dissimilar approaches to this issue: while Benz chose the cycle as the initiating point for his Copyright Motor Car and employed a navigating head plus ...

Colonization is a process in which imperial power systems dominate a region and its components. It features, among other things, cultural domination, political subjugation, religious assimilation and economic exploitations. The colonists used these measures as tools of winning control of the helpless people. Colonization has a close link to massive exploitation and assimilations of new cultures and it further involves actual or threat of use of force. The colonizers were formidable icons and commanded loyalty through aggression. In light of colonialism, established cultures disintegrated. On the case of Britain emperialism,Tarique noted that, “as one of its legacieshas been ...

Introduction

The United States of America has operated with democratic, republican representative government for more than a century and it has been one of the reasons for the success and growth as a country. The representative form of government has made America the global leader, but in recent years, several threats have raised that challenge the future existence of the much celebrated representative form of government. These threats come in the form of external and internal threats that are capable of breaking the duopoly of the representative form of government. The main threats that are affecting representative form of government ...

In 1960, a group of students called the “Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee” (SNCC) began to organize sit-ins with black students who would walk into restaurants throughout the south and sit in places designated for “whites only.” This stirred up a debate between Malcolm X and James Baldwin, who both played a prominent role in the history of the fight against the nation’s racial inequality that led to the Civil Rights Movement. Each of the men had some interesting, valid, and unique perspectives on their thoughts about the sit-ins that were occurring across the south that resulted in the ...

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 ...

The Great War was the bloodiest war in world history up to that point. Many historians claim that the buildup to the war was caused my militarism, alliances, imperialism, and nationalism (MAIN). This might be the composite indicator, but special importance should be placed on the Dual-Alliance between Austria-Hungary and the German Empire. The two came together for a myriad of reasons, most importantly a shared fear of Russian aggression, and remained together for over thirty years. Thus, an entire generation grew up recognizing that the two Germanic empires were closely allied, and the knowledge pervaded the culture of ...

Drones have obtained massive publicity in the news raising controversies all over the globe.

Abstract The Seneca Falls Women’s Rights Convention of 1848 was a pivotal point for women in the United States. Women had been voicing their concerns over their lack of rights as early as the 1700’s yet it was the Seneca Falls convention that created a public platform for the injustices against women to be expressed on a large scale for all to hear. The pioneers of this convention included Elizabeth Caddy Stanton, Lucretia Motts, Martha Wright, Jane Hunt, and Mary Ann McClintock. These brave women fought long and hard for the opportunity to bring attention to the ...

The struggle for independence is not a new topic in Europe as the region’s history depicts a myriad of conflicts that occurred for the sake of independence from monarchies and the desire for self-governance. Throughout the past centuries, larger European empires broke down into smaller states while others merged to their partners or faded entirely. However, even after the Great Wars have ended, there were still factions hoping to separate themselves from their respective countries in the hopes of reestablishing their identities prior to their inclusion to larger countries. Catalonia, for instance, has been actively working on pushing ...

Introduction

The presence of economic dynamism in the earlier twentieth century enabled the United States of America to establish itself as a great power. The economic powers of the US enabled leaders to pursue important policies that helped transform the country after the World War II. The country was leading in both regional and global politics through strong leadership of President Eisenhower and John Foster. The two figures had a lot of influence on the expansion of the American military power during the post-World War II. U.S has a long history of its military operations expanding their powers in both ...

Governor Wilson ran full-page ads in the major California newspapers, the New York Times, and the Washington Post, to launch his anti-immigrant based re-election campaign. The ads were in the form of a letter to President Clinton, demanding that he halt illegal immigration to the State of California as well as reimburse the state for the cost of federally mandated health, education, welfare services, and the incarceration of undocumented immigrants. Remarkably, Governor Wilson was able to narrow the complex political and economic conditions besieging California. It proved to be a politically astute move. In doing so, Wilson obfuscated the ...

Understanding the intrigues of an international system is as complex as understanding the factors that have influenced its evolution over time. However, it is clear that the international system underwent its most profound changes in the periods of the First and Second World Wars. The stack difference in international relations between the post war period and before the war can only be illustrated by having a detailed overview of the situation after the First World War; which set the stage for the Second World War, and the ensuing international system afterwards. In fact, it would not be an overstatement ...

Are twenty-first-century Americans more democratic than the Founding Fathers and would the U.S. profit by adopting New Hampshire´s Constitution? Are twenty-first-century Americans more democratic than the Founding Fathers and would the U.S. profit by adopting New Hampshire´s Constitution?

It would seem pretty straightforward to conclude that 21st century Americans are more democratic than were the framers of the Constitution. After all, only a relatively small minority of Americans were eligible to vote when the country first came into being. To start off, no women were allowed to vote. Of course, slaves were not allowed to vote either, ...

The Use and Abuse of History in the Recent Ukrainian Crisis

A revisiting of Ukraine's geography and historical narrative would clearly shed light on the recent Ukrainian crisis and how the turmoil and sentiment in the Orange Revolution and the 2014 confrontation originate from a long history of struggle over the delicate status of Ukraine between East and West. Through the correct use of history, one would understand that history drew the dividing lines and spurred the conflict that spanned centuries. Eastern Ukraine was occupied by Russian imperialism in the 1800s, followed by Western Ukraine. This provides an explanation of the reason Eastern Ukrainians have largely remained loyal to politicians ...

Learning to Drive is a film directed by Isabel Coixet, released in 2014 and it deals with the role of women in the society. Although it seems that an Indian Sikh woman must have a much different life than an American woman from the upper class, they have things in common as well. This film is an example of gender equality in America. Wendy is a book editor and a critic who goes through a divorce and she has to become better equipped for life. She never thought that it was important for her to drive and once her ...

Anti-Asian agitation is a general sentiment that refers to opposition, discrimination or hostility against the Chinese people or rather people of Asian origin. This topic is interesting because it has somehow gone unnoticed over the years until the modern days. It involves discrimination of the Asian traditions, culture, and even politics. One may tend to think that this sentiment is a modern day issue. However, it began in the 19th century, in the yellow peril, and was further extended to the Cold War times and even more heightened by McCarthyism. The Asians, precisely the Chinese, thought they had found ...

Sentiment was boiling with respect to the issue of slavery. There was a delicate balance in Congress----eleven Free states and eleven slave states. Missouri wants to join the union as a slave state, a challenge to the fragile equilibrium of the political era. Henry Clay helps to provide the answer with the Missouri Compromise. It simply stated that Missouri would join the union as a slave state, while Maine would detach from Massachusetts as a free state (Etcheson 1). Furthermore, slavery would be outlawed in lands north of the southern border of Missouri, except of course, Missouri (Etcheson 1). ...

Netscape strategy is based on the concept of giving free browsing software to non-technical users. Once Netscape acquires a large base of users, it would make money by selling commercial software to corporations that want market access to its large base of users. For this strategy to be successful in the future Netscape should be able to woo not just users rapidly but also organizations who are willing to pay to access the users and conduct their transactions easily and securely. Without a critical mass of users organizations will be reluctant to buy Netscape software and services, and without ...

Introduction

Targeting a certain population or set of people in the world and stereotyping them and discriminating against them is not a new phenomenon as it has been around since a long time. People and nations that have been in power, always find a way to maintain their hegemony and keep their interests and benefits alive. In the same way, different people, creeds, nations and ethnicities have been discriminated against in light of the prejudices harbored by influential people. These can spread and affect the views of other people in the same way ...

Canada is known for its breathtaking landscapes and mountain views in the West. These views have been accessible to tourists, migrators, and businesspeople alike thanks to the introduction of railways across the country. During a time when people did not own cars and air travel was virtually nonexistent, railroad travel was revolutionary. This was the first time that people could freely travel across the country and explore the world outside of their home. Canadian nationalism has increased thanks to this railway, as the country is now united by train tracks from east to west. The Canadian Pacific Railroad (CPR) ...

Spring in a Small Town is a Chinese film directed by Fei Mu in 1948, right after the Second World War. The marriage life of the main film characters, Liyan Dai and Yuwen Zhou, has been affected by the disastrous war. This movie represents how their marriage life is further turbulent during the visit of Liyan’s friend Zhichen Zhang, who was once Yuwen’s past lover. Although spring was criticized during the Communist revolution for its petit-bourgeois decadence, researchers find that many Confucian principles are embedded in this film. For instance, in the drinking scene at the birthday ...

Introduction

In his essay entitled the Hispanic Challenge, Samuel Huntington claims that the traditional American identity is now facing a serious challenge with the increased and continuing immigration of Latinos in the United States. Huntington is considered as one of the country’s influential political analysts, but his suggestion that the Mexican and other Latin immigrants are likely to destroy the American identity is unfounded. Huntington’s argument in The Hispanic Challenge reflects the ethnic prejudice against the Mexican’s and other immigrants in the United States, and how the liberal press favors such attitudes. This paper aims to show ...

Immigration to the United States

Since the creating of the British Colonies in the new world called America, immigrants have come from around the world to fulfill their dreams. Over time, there have been periodic influxes of immigrants from various countries that have had an impact on the growth and development of the United States. This is a brief look at some of those periods.

The middle of the eighteenth century saw a large influx of immigrants from Germany, with most immigrants settling in the Pennsylvania territory. Many fled Germany because of wars, famines, and high taxes. They were also seeking religious freedom that ...

The treatment of the Jews during the Middle Ages changed depending on their role in society. They were either persecuted as foreigners and people to be considered enemies of the State. Or the Jews were treated with utmost respect in other areas as they were the money lenders. In many areas they financed infrastructures, wars, such as the Crusades and other necessities for the lords. Initially, the Jews in Rome were courted by Paul to convert to Christianity in Paul’s famous Letter to the Romans. Many did and Rome ended up becoming the seat of the Christian church. ...

Pan-Islamism denotes a move towards achieving Islamic unity for all Muslims under one state, commonly referred to as a caliphate. The idea of a caliphate was first conceptualized during the time of Prophet Muhammad, who was seen as the de facto spiritual and political leader of all Muslims. In the modern era, the idea of a Muslim caliphate was popularized by Jamal al-Din al-Afghani (jrank.org). He was an Islamic philosopher and political activist. He worked as an advisor to the King of Afghanistan in which it has been documented that he advised on the resistance of Britain's advances in ...

Information paper – China’s International Relations with Russia

Russian-Chinese relations are an important part of the modern system of international relations. The way on how the relations between China and Russia are going on will largely depend on the whole course of political processes, at least within Eurasia. However, we can confidently say that the nature of Russian-Chinese relations have an objective side and will be influenced by their historical past. With hindsight, it is impossible to give guarantees that observed in the present trend of Russian-Chinese political rapprochement will continue in the future. First of all, because the relationship between the "Middle Kingdom," and Russia have ...

Unemployment and wages

Our economic and financial infrastructure has grown and improved with time, but the business cycles remains a constant factor. There are still collapses in the market and conditions do improve on planned stimulus by Government and market sentiment. This cycle of booms, moderate growth and inflation combine to make a Business cycle that leads to growth in labor market during expansionary phases, and lead to high unemployment rates in recessionary phases. This theory can be observed in the recent labor statistics of USA. The recession that started in 2007 and continued till 2009 was a trough of the business ...

Abraham Lincoln delivered the second inaugural address on March 4, 1865. At this time, the country was torn by years of devastating war, however the forces of the North were nearing the victory over the Confederates. Lincoln had to take into account these circumstances when addressing the nation. And he certainly did that, as a detailed analysis of his speech suggests. Lincoln’s second inaugural address involves the effective use of rhetorical appeals and rhetorical devices as well as addresses the specifics of the audience, place, and time, which makes it an efficient political speech.

The United States has a secret competitive advantage over most other nation. The advantage, however, is not one that normally comes to mind in the public or is a focus of attention of the media or politicians. The advantage is that the U.S. attracts the largest number of immigrants in the world, and it has been doing so since its founding. Indeed, since the late 1700s, over 55 million people have immigrated to the U.S. and made it their home (ACLU). To be sure, except for the Native Americans, every other U.S. citizen is either an immigrant or a ...

The literary Arab world and that of Western do not cross over much, and it is evidenced that the literature of the Arab world is not known in the west.

Journalism is a profession that has its root in multi level bases of responsibilities and obligations when it comes beyond theory to actual practice. The profession of journalism provides certain degree of authority as soon as the vast field of mass media is open to be accessed. But as put very eloquently, with great power comes great responsibility. One stroke from the pen of a journalist or one click of such a camera can yield the power of ensuring justice to someone or cause nationwide panic and chaos. Few other professions have such authority and force. So, being a journalist, one should be ...

Dear Sir

Before beginning my words, I’d like to say that I didn’t truthfully do anything deliberate, and I didn’t do anything intentionally about being disrespectful toward both you and your course. I can definitely assure you about that. I honestly request you not to think about what I led to in that way. Even if I did something wrong, that would be coming from my pensiveness, not being disrespectful and inconsiderate toward you. Accordingly, I know how much rules are strict, severe and brutal if needed, particularly in the United States, where I consider there ...

Machine learning techniques are based on an explicit or implicit model that enables categorize established patterns analyzed. A unique feature of these schemes is the need to train labeled data model behavior, this being a process that demands resources. Many machine learning-based schemes have been applied to NIDS. Some of the most important are Bayesian networks, Markov models, neural networks, fuzzy logic techniques, genetic algorithms, and clustering and outlier detection (Carbonneau, et. al., 2008, pp. 1140-54).

Introduction

The immigration legislation in the U.S. today is the product of decades worth of political wrangling and public anger on both sides of the debate. The immigration debate has gone back and forth between the two political parties in this country to such a degree that there is de facto compromise on the elements of reform, and now all we have to do is implement the reforms that are already in place. The argument has gone back and forth for decades with both Democratic and Republican regimes signing legislation that encourages immigration then opposes immigration. The full circle is here ...

Before the advent of the computer, artists and artisans alike utilized a complex tool in making their letter forms; the hand. At ten digits, five for each hand, the hand was efficiently the first digital lettering tool, utilized in engravings, carving and in the production of the various letter forms. The hand, while allowing for a few technological flaws and eccentricities, still facilitated the creation of some of the most beautiful lettering forms ever made. The advantages of the hand as a lettering tool underscore the paradox that, with technological advancement, both a loss and profit were incurred. The computer, on the one ...
