The topic is about how brains are different from computers. Computers are normally recognized as “electronic brains,” and newspaper articles as well as science fiction, talk of “intelligent machines” that take over from humans. These statements are misleading. I will observe the differences between brains and computers by examining the difference according to various researchers. For now, brains are said to different from computers –but there is a chance for us to learn from studies that examine the way that brains process information, this will be observed in the study. Computers do not have the ability to think 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 ...

The voting process in every democratic nation helps its citizens to choose their preferred leaders in a free and fair manner. It acts as a part of their Bill of Rights and helps them shape how they want their country, state, or society to grow. The voting process helps a nation to grow as one through exercising fairness and legibility in all its interactions. Americans enjoy the freedom of voting as long they are citizens of America and have an identity card. However, it was not a similar case in the early 19th century as the constitution, at the ...

Wenger held a meeting with all the wave members. He first pretended to punish Marco. He asked students to bring Marco to the stage. Then he showed the students how extreme the Wave became. When Wenger said the wave is ended, Tim took out a gun. When Bomber said the gun only fires blanks, Tim shooted him. Tim pointed the gun at Wenger. Wenger said if he died, there would be no one to lead the wave. Tim ended up killing himself. In the end, Wenger left with the police. Bomber was taken to the hospital; Marco reunited with ...

In the mid-nineteenth century classical school of political economy was in crisis, as its theory was based on the interpretation of cost values and could explain some of the pressing problems of the economy. The weakest point of the classical school was that it was poorly focused on the subject-user, for which production takes place. The opinion of the classical school was confined to the manufacturer. An exit of the crisis was found by the marginalists. This direction of economic thought emerged in the last third of the XIX century in the center of this system is subject to ...

Chapter One: Introduction to Pre-Eclampsia Study As one of the leading global causes of maternal mortality, pre-eclampsia and related conditions have a remarkably wide impact (Sibai, Dekker & Kupferminc, 2005; Ghulmiyyah & Sibai, 2012). Diseases like pre-eclampsia can strike women of any age and with any socioeconomic background. The issues associated with pre-eclampsia are global, but there are certain populations that are more heavily impacted than others—and these populations are the ones that require investigation (Sibai, Dekker & Kupferminc, 2005). Pre-eclampsia is a condition that is associated with high maternal blood pressure and protein in maternal urine, but it is a ...

Pseudoscience is a belief or the process that attempts to trap the ideas, methodology and techniques from science, but it is not able to achieve them on its terms. On a wider note, the pursuits of the knowledge about in Pseudoscience involve considerable elements of guesswork, intuitions, and the experiments which do not adequately test the theory. Further, in pseudoscience, the results may be incorrectly interpreted or sometimes entirely wrong. The movie “The Chariots of the Gods” by Erich von Daniken uses considerable descriptions and the pseudoscience to the support the thematic ideas as depicted. Von Daniken describes being ...

There are many elements to consider when to develop a robust performance management plan (Adler, 2011). Lumenpulse has gone a long way to establishing several mechanisms ...

There exist several different unofficial classifications of social media users and internet users in general. The most practical, for the purpose of market segmentation, is provided by WebGeekly.com where social media users are divided into six groups, namely: creators, critics, collectors, joiners, spectators and the inactive (Von Brockdorff, 2013). The names of the groups define the characteristics of its members. The target group for the strategy outlined below is the spectators. They are the most numerous and contribute heavily toward reviews and ratings. The focus of the plan is on longevity and viability. The first step in this strategy ...

Good day! I am here today to speak to you about Area 51. Much has been said and written about Area 51. The main perception of this area is that it is so secretive such that there are many theories that abound to this day about Area 51.

Discuss why the characteristics of victims are so important to crime analysis

Although victim characteristics is only one of many aspects considered in theoretical victimology, which studies the victim factors in the crime (Fattah, 2000), these characteristics has been found influential in the planning and eventual commission of the crime. Since the history of this field of study, there was a running belief that the victim may have a contribution in the genesis of the crime. As early as 1940, despite many crimes wherein the victim has little or no direct or indirect contribution in the occurrence of the crime, many observers noted that there was real interaction and mutual contribution ...

[Assignment]

The question of why a work deserves inclusion in the literary canon is especially interesting when it comes to world literature. Many of the world’s earliest texts arose out of an oral rather than a written tradition, giving them a form and tone very different than modern works considered to have literary merit. With these works, literary value is determined less by the words themselves and more by the ideas and themes that are developed and their relationship to the culture. In the case of The Epic of Gilgamesh, is inclusion in the canon is due to ...

Introduction

The African diaspora has resulted in a wave of “migration” of Africans from the African continent to other parts of the world. The main reason for this is the slave dispersal that moved Africans from Africa to America, the Middle East and even to the Far East. The dispersal that took place is thought to be one of the greatest forced migrations in the history of humankind (Britannia Academic: Slavery). There is always the ideology that all Africans, no matter where they find themselves around the world, are bound together by their traditional cultures and diasporic experiences. This paper ...

Transcriptional regulation of gene expression

Gene expression in eukaryotic cells is regulated at transcriptional, post transcriptional and translational levels (Tomizawa,  Lekstrom-Himes, and Xanthopoulos 17). Transcriptional control is the primary means of regulating gene expression. Eukaryotic transcriptional control functions at three levels: modulation of the activities of activators and repressors; variations in chromatin structure; and effect of activators and repressors on assembly of initiation complexes (Lodish et al. 368). Regulation of transcription initiation is the most widespread form of gene control in eukaryotes. However, in some cases, transcription may be attenuated and regulated at subsequent steps, such as during or after the transcription process (Cooper ...

While the English language is constantly evolving, the overuse of words in the wrong context diminishes their meaning and value. The word “hero” is constantly being used, especially in the media, to apply to anything from sporting personalities to sporting shoes (Nike, 2016) to sandwiches. The book by Christopher and Smith (2007), entitled Greatest Sports Heroes of All Time, uses the word “hero” in the wrong context. In this context, the word “hero”” has been widely used to describe any person of prominence in the sporting world who has ever achieved something noteworthy, when in fact these people, while ...

I. Introduction: Estate Planning As the saying goes, nothing is more certain in life than death. As many lawyers are trained, if you know that an event will happen, it is best to prepare for that event in order to put yourself in the best possible situation to take advantage of circumstances when the event occurs. The law’s response to effectively preparing for the ultimate eventuality is known as estate planning. Estate planning, in essence, is the process and procedures performed by an individual to arrange for the transfer of their “estate” in anticipation of death or incapacity ( ...

Review of ISG Assessment Tool:

The information assessment, governance-tool is a framework designed to help companies measure the extent of how they have implemented their information security governance framework at the strategic level within the organization (Corporate Governance Task Force Report, 2004).

Issues to do with information security have often been considered technical issues, but over the last few years, it has been established that there is more to be done to ensure that effective information security programs are ...

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 ...

Modern instances of racism are rather subtle and usually harder to completely analyze from what the victim recounts later. It ranges from a tinge of scorn from the clerk at the usual supermarket to the stench of serious human rights violation by the police. The concept that these acts of racism are isolated and does not signify any underlying pattern was vehemently upheld by many men and women of authority until recently. But as of today, they stand corrected. Even from a passive standpoint, after hearing from a number of such victims, we have come to accept that this ...

There is a wide accepted concept that after centuries of development, the Muslim world began to decline in the 15th century. Did it really decline? In this work I would like to illustrate the main trends of developments of the Muslim world in early 15 – early 20 century. We know that in part of the second millennium, and for five centuries later there were many Asian invasions in other regions of the world, wide expansion (Seljuk, Arab, Turkish). But then the stagnation began. Since the "golden age" of the Abbasid Empire, it has not changed territorially. And large areas ...

Eine Möglichkeit, den Zusammenhang zwischen dem Marxismus und der Psychoanalyse zu bestimmen, ist nach der Antwort innerhalb marxistischen Denkens zu suchen. Marx extrapolierte die Beziehungen zwischen den Arbeitern, Materialien und der herrschenden Klasse. Indem er zeigte, wie die besitzende Klasse (Bourgeoisie) die Arbeiterklasse (Proletariat) manipulierte und unterdrückte, auch zeigte er, wie die Mentalitäten dieser Dual-Klassen gebildet und verändert werden. In marxistischem Denken wird das Proletariat durch die besitzende Klasse und ihre Ideologie beinflusst, die sie zu einem „falschen Bewusstsein“ führt. Somit ist das Proletariat ein Opfer der Gehirnwäsche (über Ideologie), damit sie ihre ...

The correlation of language, culture, and the way people think has been an issue of heated discussions for quite a long time and no definite answer has been found yet. The idea that language can reflect the speaker’s culture and individuality was first introduced by the German language scholar Wilhelm von Humboldt who “asserted that man perceives the world essentially through the medium of language” (Wilhelm, baron von Humboldt, n.d.). Later on, American linguists Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf went on developing the idea and insisted that “speakers of different tongues may think differently” (Boroditsky, 2011, p. ...

Acids

There are three scientifically correct definitions that define an acid substance. Arrhenius defines an acid as a substance that made up of hydrogen that when dissolved in water breaks apart increasing the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) in the water. Bronsted-Lowry defines an acid as a proton (H+ ion) donor. Lewis describes acids as substances that accept electron pairs. Acids have a sour taste and are highly reactive with metals (Brent, 2009). Nitric acid is used as fertilizers, and hydrochloric acid is used to bricks.

Bases

A basic substance can also be described using definitions from the three authors. Arrhenius ...

The case of the von Braun team of German rocket scientists who came to the United States at the end of World War II illuminates the idea of administrative evil.

In the early 1960s, a lot of people had no doubt that soon a third world war would start. It was supposed to be a nuclear conflict between the US and the Soviet Union, which would lead to the destruction of humanity, or at least to the collapse of modern civilization. Regularly occurring conflicts like the Korean War of 1950-1953 and the Cuban missile crisis of 1962 intensified the tensions and cultivated the fear in society. Sooner or later, with malicious intent or by mistake, the Cold War could turn into a "Hot War". Everyone understood it, and there ...

BUSINESS IN EMERGING MARKETS

Introduction The theory of natural resource curse can be founded back from the 1970s. Resource curse has been an important topic for researchers since two subsequent decades; multiple research efforts have proposed the association between the production of resources, numerous socio-political ills, and, economic underperformance. The role of natural resources in the growth of the economy has been a question of immense debate. If the role of natural resources is considered in common sense, then economic growth theories propose that natural resources are the gift and economies through building their capital can grow economies. However, if the revenue spending ...

Facts Disputing Von Daniken’s Theory on Egypt

Erich von Daniken tries to support his theory that Earth was visited by ancient extraterrestrial beings using the early Egyptian civilization. Von Daniken claims that the Egyptian civilization rose suddenly out of nowhere as a fully formed, technological advanced society (Von Daniken, n.d). Von Daniken’s claims are not valid because the Egyptian civilization is well documented showing how they learnt and built from their mistakes. Egyptian ingenuity began in 3000 B.C when they built the world’s first dam. The dam was 50 feet high and its construction was overseen by Egypt’s first Pharaoh, Menes, who had ...

Von Daniken has been instrumental in pushing for the idea that Ancient Aliens came to earth during evolution, and their presence resulted in the rapid expansion and growth of human intelligence. In his book Chariots of the Gods, Von Daniken argues that the pyramids were far too complex to have been built by the ancient societies. He goes on to point out the alignment of the pyramids. The pyramids are aligned in the same way as the magnetic compass of the world. Daniken’s argument is based on the fact that the materials used to build the pyramids and ...

Additionally, Magnesium is required to assist in different cellular processes such as DNA replication and transcription and RNA translation(Barbagallo, 2012). Magnesium is found usually in the bones and or in the soft tissues of humans. Next to Potassium, it is the most abundant ion in the body. The plasma actually contains ...

Community development refers to a situation where communities unite in the creation of solutions to problems that affect their existence. The concept originated in the 60s’ when the US saw the need to solve some of the problems that affected poor areas in urban centers. The target group included immigrants and minority groups living in low-income areas. Problems facing such neighborhoods included poverty, crime, delinquency, and overcrowding among other social-economic ills (Von-Hoffman, 2012). Therefore, the government, among other development agents, began pumping resources into these communities to help improve their social-economic “backwardness.’ In the 1960s, however, riots threatened to ...

With globalization of business operations, certain issues like diversity management, ethics and social responsibility were added into its framework. After the introduction of IT, the HR functions became more complex, though accessibility became easier with internet enabled platforms.

Von Daniken’s Evidence of Extraterrestrials Visits to Earth

Von Daniken mentions the Tassili sphere where Henri Lhote found images underneath a semicircular rock. In the image, a woman is pulling a man and behind her is a sphere with concentric circles. On the upper side of the sphere, a hatch is open with a television aerial protruding from it. There are hands with outspread fingers on the right half of the sphere. There are also five floating figures wearing helmets with white and red dots accompanying the sphere. Von Daniken also uses a gigantic stone egg discovered in 1940 by an archeologist known as Professor Marcel Homet ( ...
