...Introduction to Chinese Literature China possesses one of the world's major literary traditions. Its texts have been preserved for over 3,000 years. Reverence for the past has influenced the preservation of these cultural sources, and may have influenced the invention of woodblock printing in the 9th century and moveable type printing in the 12th century. The practice of collecting and reproducing libraries has also played a major role in the transmission of literary tradition. Most important, China can boast an unbroken cultural tradition based on the Chinese script as a language — a written medium — independent of spoken dialectic difference. As literary language became increasingly removed from spoken language, it became less vital and literature took a natural turn toward imitation. Indeed, after the formative classical period that began with Confucius, the literary history of China becomes one of imitation-with-variations of different models. Literature also thus becomes more elitist, for an understanding or appreciation of a text may require familiarity with the models being alluded to. The principal genre of Chinese literature is poetry; early folk songs established the shi (shih) form that crystallized during the Han dynasty and dominated for the next 1,200 years. Beginning with the simple complaints and longings expressed in rhymed couplets of folk songs, this form gradually became more and more complex, or "regulated," until it took years of study to master its formal...

...Park Design Guidelines & Data Province of British Columbia Ministry of Environment Lands and Parks A NATURAL LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE FOR BRITISH COLUMBIA’S PROVINCIAL PARKS BC PARKS: PARK DESIGN GUIDELINES & DATA Overview Simplicity in design and restraint in construction creates park facilities suited to what attracts visitors in the first place – recreation in the natural park landscape. q The aim of Park Design Guidelines & Data is to help BC Parks staff use their park expertise to produce appropriate facility landscapes. These guidelines identify design criteria and planning processes for BC Parks staff to provide sustainable, appropriate park recreation facilities. They promote facility design that requires the least visible development. q A design approach to visitor facilities is defined that: Recognizing the facilities are an integral part of a park means reducing the impact of use and basing planning and design decisions on local and regional considerations – for the park environment’s long term health. Maintaining natural park landscapes and environments will help ensure the quality of visitor experiences now and in the future. At neighbouring Bromley Rock Provincial Park and Stemwinder Provincial Park, illustrated left, natural site elements create facilities that blend into the natural park landscapes. These examples show the careful expenditure of resources and the thoughtful use of native materials...

Turabian’s, A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, this sample paper can be used as a template for inserting the correct parts. For the purpose of instruction, it will use second person, but third person must be used in student papers. You will notice that the first time Turabian’s name is written in the paper, her full name is given, but the second and subsequent uses of her name will be her last name only. Though some written assignments will not require a table of contents, Liberty University School of Divinity (hereafter referred to as SoD) requires all research papers to have a table of contents and abide by basic Turabian rules. Number all pages of this element with roman numerals. Label the first page Contents at the top of the page. If the table of contents is more than one page, do not repeat the title.

...Akkad, Assyria and Babylon civilizations all emerged around the Tigris-Euphrates, the theory that Mesopotamia is the cradle of civilization is widely accepted.[14]The Mesopotamian civilization of Sumer emerges in the Ubaid period (6500-3800 BC) and Uruk period (ca. 4000 to 3100 BC), culminating in the mid-3rd millennium before giving rise to the Akkadian Empire in the 24th century BC. This is often identified as the first empire in history. Eridu was the oldest Sumerian site, settled during the proto-civilized Ubaid period. Situated several miles southwest of Ur, Eridu was the southernmost of a conglomeration of early temple-cities, in Sumer, southern Mesopotamia, with the earliest of these settlements dating to around 5000 BC. By the 4th millennium BC in Nippur we[who?] find — in connection with a sort of ziggurat and shrine — a conduit built of bricks in the form of an arch. Sumerian inscriptions written on clay also appear in Nippur. By 4000 BC an ancient Elamite city of Susa, in Mesopotamia, also seems to emerge from earlier villages. Whilst the Elamites originally had their own script, from an early age they adapted the Sumerian cuneiform script to their own language. The earliest recognizable cuneiform dates to no later than about 3500 BC. Other villages that began to spring up around this time in the Ancient Near East (Middle East) were greatly impacted and shifted rapidly from a proto-civilized to a fully civilized state (e.g. Ebla, Mari and...

...Preface: Hammurabi was a Babylonian king who ruled from 1792 to 1750 B.C. His attributes were he extended his empire northward from the Persian Gulf to the Tigris and Euphrates River and west to the Mediterranean Sea. He united the area into one extensive empire, Mesopotamia, which in present day is known as Iraq. (Ancient Mesopotamia) Hammurabi created a list of rules and laws for the people of his empire to follow called “The Code of Hammurabi”. This is one of the oldest and most detailed documents in existence and gives insight as to how the members of Babylonian society lived. The code listed 282 rules for society to obey by and the consequences or guidelines for each member given their social status and their gender. There were rules of every category. From marriage and adultery, criminal acts such a stealing, property, and monetary trading. What’s interesting about this rulebook is the detail and coverage of the book. While in today’s world we may not follow rules such as “An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth” like the Code of Hammurabi, whose punishments for a crime were much more extravagant and gruesome at times. There was segregation in gender and social status. The topics addressed in the code are some of the same topics addressed that we, today, value and instill. In today’s government we have laws of crime and punishment, monetary laws, and laws regarding marriage. We have these laws so we can have structure and a successful government and society. It’s...

...Executive Summary Unsafe work or operation of equipment that may cause an undue risk or hazard to an employee before, during and after an employee’s shift should be refused at all times (Worksafe BC, n.d.). This is the approach that an organization should adopt to ensure the safety of employees as well as the protection from liability. At PBJK Burgers there is an absence of a work refusal policy and procedure, essentially making the company not in compliance with the Occupational Health and Safety Regulation of BC,(“OHSR”). As a result of this from a human resource professional perspective the following key issues were identified that PBJK Burgers needs to ensure: • Supervisors are equipped with the knowledge and skills to deal with unsafe work refusals. • Employees are trained on identifying unsafe hazards. • PBJK Burgers must have a work environment culture that cultivates support regarding refusals. With this in mind the reference manual aims to ensure the above is achieved and answered. Through research with Worksafe BC and a risk assessment it was identified that the following were common hazards at PBJK Burgers: slips, trips, falls, burns musculoskeletal Injuries, improper lifting/use of equipment and cleaning agents. This creates a medium to low risk, but without a policy or procedure leaves the company susceptible to loss. The loss could include negative impacts such as, brand damage, penalties, low employee morale, low productivity, higher injury rates and thus...

...LIBERTY UNIVERSITY BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY Book Summary of Ancient Near Eastern Thought and the Old Testament by John H. Walton Submitted to Dr. Peter Hamilton in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the completion of the course 201420 Spring 2014 OBST 510-B08 LUO by March 2, 2014 ABSTRACT There are fourteen chapters in the book Ancient Near Eastern Thought and the Old Testament: Introducing the Conceptual World of the Hebrew Bible written by John H. Walton. It includes five main sections. Along with these sections there are historical pictures that consist of over 20 images. Each one of those images are included in a complete appendix at the beginning of the book. Walton gives acknowledgements, which are followed by a list of abbreviations. Part 1- Comparative Studies In this first section it includes the first two chapters. Chapter one is appropriately named history and methods. The resolution of this part of the book is to protect the Bible from the harm done by comparative studies which warped evidence to work against the historicity, canonicity, and divine revelation of the Bible. Chapter 1- History and Methods This chapter opens up with the rediscovery of Egypt and Mesopotamia, dating back to the 1800s and the mid 1900s. The author states that archeologists were very quickly discovering that the Bible in its entirety was completely and wholly accurate and true. It was during this time that evolution and the scientific...

...Project Management – Simple Answers to Simple Questions Originally I wrote this for one of my clients in 1991. The idea was to develop a brochure to promote project management in one of the client's departments. Today, project management is well established in the organization, but the answers to the questions are just as valid. R. Max Wideman 01 What is a project? A. The term project seems to be a buzzword that means a lot of different things to different people. Anything, for example, from a secretary's "project" to clean out an old filing cabinet to an engineer's "project" to create a multi-million dollar facility. Even these extremes have one thing in common: the application of work or effort to create a new situation or product, where "product" is used in its broadest sense. So a project can be any undertaking with a definite starting point and one or more defined objectives the completion of which spell out the end of the project. It should be added that for one reason or another most projects are restricted by limits imposed on resources (effort, equipment and materials) time and money. 02 Why do I need project management? A. Another way of asking this question is "What if I don't bother with project management?" The fact is, all projects demand some degree of attention to make them happen. Even the secretary needs to deliberately plan to set aside some time to clean out that filing cabinet, otherwise the job will never get done! Believe it or not exactly the same holds...

...Definition of law Law is a system of rules that are enforced through social institutions to govern behaviour. Laws can be made by a collective legislature or by a single legislator, resulting in statutes, by the executive through decrees and regulations, or by judges through binding precedent, normally in common law jurisdictions. Private individuals can create legally binding contracts, including arbitration agreements that may elect to accept alternative arbitration to the normal court process. The formation of laws themselves may be influenced by a constitution, written or tacit, and the rights encoded therein. The law shapes politics, economics, history and society in various ways and serves as a mediator of relations between people....

Genesis goes as far back at 1445 BC. Some of the major people in Genesis are of course Adam and Eve, Cain and Able, Isaac and Rebekah, and of course Jacob’s wives and his twelve sons. Genesis reminds us that, “In the beginning God created the heaven and earth.” (Gen. 1:1) Also, “God created man in his own image, in the image of God created him, male and female created he them” Joseph (son of Jacob) Joseph was the son of Jacob and Genesis 37-50 focuses on his story and how God used him to move his family to Egypt. He was first son of Rachel and the eleventh son of Jacob. Jospeh was Jacon’s favorite son was given a “long coat of many colors”, because of this coat and the fact that Joseph was the favorite son his brothers hated him. At age 17 Joseph dreamed that his family would bow down to him, that caused his brothers to hate him even more and begin to plot on how to get rid of him. His brothers came up with a few ways to kill him but his oldest brother Reuben did not want him to die. They ended up selling him into slavery for twenty piece of slavery. The brothers then placed males goat’s blood on Joseph’s coat to convince their father that he was really dead....
