...2010 Bill John Introduction to Research ~ Research Project 10/28/2010 Hunting Age Introduction to Research John Bill BUSC 315 Research Project Bill John Hunting Age “Turning kids into Killers?” According to Rob Keck, a famous author, “If you go the route of using a range finder, don't make the mistake of trying it out for the first time when you're turkey hunting. A little pre-season preparation at home will go a long way toward success later.” ThinkExist.com Quotations. “Rob Keck quotes”. ThinkExist.com Quotations Online 1 Sep. 2010. 26 Oct. 2010 <http://einstein/quotes/rob_keck/>. I believe what Rob meant by this was the sooner we teach hunting to the youth, the longer they will be engaged and the better our animal conservation will be. The sooner we get youth into the field under a controlled environment, with a gun in their hands and an adult by their side, the better off they will be in two years when they’re hunting by themselves. This research paper is about the current hunting age issue and the impact it may have on a forever-long tradition of hunting. Martin Merereau, who is the director of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals' Cruelty Investigations Department in Norfolk, VA, posed a question in one of his articles called Turning kids into Killers: “Based on a new Wisconsin law: How low will hunting lobbyists go?” What Merereau is referring to is the recent law passed in Wisconsin which grants 10-year-olds the right to carry...

...definition of stress was I am sure you would get 10 different answers from all 10 different people. The reason for this is because stress varies from person to person and how each person copes with it also tends to vary. To understand stress and how it impacts our physical and mental lives, we must educate ourselves on stress, the effects of stress, the causes of stress, the symptoms of stress and how to manage and cope with stress. Stress can be very debilitating and could impact various aspects of our everyday lives if it is not dealt with and managed effectively. I have been through various bouts of stress throughout my life and I have found different ways to combat it which will be explained later in this research paper. As part of my research, I will define stress, the effects of stress, the cause of stress, the symptoms of stress and how to manage and cope with stress, as well as my own personal experience relating to stress. The ideal solution for everyone is to understand stress so when we are faced with situations that may cause us anxiety we are able to work effectively through it. The more knowledge we have regarding stress enables us to help ourselves as well as combat the situation. What is Stress? How each individual defines stress could be all comparative to how they function in their daily lives. According to Santrock (2006), “Stress is defined as...

...the bar high enough to keep life interesting. My personal responsibility and accountability can be controlled and maintained by good time management and organization. I can manage my time by dividing up my days to work on my days to fit in time for God, my family, work and my education. By setting a specific time that I am going to work on my studies, I should be able to concentrate on the work without too much stress and neglecting my duties as a mother. Simply having the tools for school available when I need them will help me keep me on track with my education and all that it entails. Organization is already a huge part of my life because when I am organized with my time, job, and home, I find it much easier to relax. Prioritizing everyday activities at home such as laundry, working in the yard, and general household duties help me allocate my time to the things that are most important. So often, life presents us with things that “need” to be done but we always have things that we “want” to get done. By prioritizing, I can differentiate which of those things that are most important to my quality of life and help keep me organized. Another way I try to stay organized is by having an effective filing system. Whether it is the daily mail or my daughter’s papers from school, I only want to have to touch them once. Basically, that means that after I look at...

...Running head: Evolution of Management Principles The Evolution of Management Principles Tim Akers American Public University 20 April 2013 ABSTRACT In this paper I will be explaining the evolution of management from the beginning of the industrial revolution to present which includes Classical School of Management, the Human Relations/ Behavioral School of Management, Theory X and Y, the Scientific Approach, Contingency Approach, and Theory Z. I will also be comparing the classical style and the present style to each other and to my current work environment. The Evolution of Management Principles The Classical school of thought began during the Industrial Revolution around 1900 and continued into the 1920s when new problems related to the factory system began to appear. Managers were unsure of how to train employees (many of them non-English speaking immigrants) or deal with increased labor dissatisfaction, so they began to test solutions. Traditional or classical management focuses on efficiency and includes scientific, bureaucratic and administrative management. Bureaucratic management needs a rational set of structuring guidelines, such as rules and procedures, hierarchy, and a clear division of labor. Scientific management focuses on the "one best way" to do the job. Administrative management emphasizes the flow of information in the operation of the organization. The first management theory approach to emerge was...

...Deforestation Jason Hennessee Axia College of University of Phoenix Deforestation “Dad! Dad! It’s opening day! Can we please go to the forest to watch the boats race?” Junior, age 10, was very excited about the idea of watching the boats race from the relative quiet and shade of one of the forests to border the river. “Sissy already has the car packed for the trip, and I think she even remembered to grab the charcoal this time!” Dean opened one eye. Seven in the morning was a bit early to leave for the boat races thirty minutes away when they started at nine. But, such was Junior’s excitement that Dean forced himself out of his bed earlier than he planned on. “Ok, son. Let’s check Renee’s packing and we’ll see about weather and conditions. Does Mom have her work finished yet?” Anne appeared framed in the bedroom door. “Yeah. I have some more reading to do, but I can do it at the site. The races are not my favorite thing, but you’ll need my help if the kids want to get wet. However, there is something I need to talk to you about. Junior, honey, please go make sure you have a cooler full of water and juice for us today.” Off like a shot, Junior dashed out of the room and Anne went in, closing the door behind her and lifting Dean’s laptop to the bed. “Dean, I think the forest is gone. Check this out.” Dean read the headlines and cutlines of the pictures and articles that Anne showed him. He shook his head as one by one they all told a devastating...

...INTRODUCTION Imagine you’re 60 years old. You’ve spent your entire life slaving away in order to buy the house in which you and your family live. It is your beauty, pride and joy. Your numerous years of hard work have paid off and you have been able to live a comfortable life in the suburbs of Ottawa, with plenty to eat and enough to entertain. Then one day, just as you’re getting back from work, as you’re pulling into your driveway, you find in utter horror, that your entire house is in ashes, smoke still drifting from the remaining pieces of wood. What despair and sadness! All that hard work would have gone down the drain since you would now have to start all over again in order to buy a new house. But then imagine not having to lose it all. Imagine having the option to call someone who can provide you with a large part of the money necessary to rebuild your house, as this was part of a financial agreement in case of such emergencies. What a relief! This is the essence of insurance. Insurance is a financial security that offers reimbursement for assessed risks that end up actually happening. In exchange for such coverage, the insured individual has to pay a regular premium. Though this reimbursement won’t bring back the individual’s burnt-down house or stolen car, it does offer options and choices with regards to dealing with the situation. It gives the individual peace of mind in knowing that should any danger arise, there will always be a way to overcome it. Without insurance...

Google’s other business include Internet analytics, cloud computing, advertising technologies, Web app, browser and operating system development. Google was invented by two 1995 graduate students from Stanford University, Sergey Brin and Larry Page. Brin and Page submitted a research paper that eventually launched, BackRub. They were initially turned away because the CEO didn’t care about search engines. In 1998, the founders used their own funding and landed on Top 100 Web Sites and Search Engines for 1998 (Google, 16). Google’s Mission is "to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful". Google has 8 billion Web pages that can return results as fast as you can query them¬¬.

Avian Ecology is a classic study to see if birds segregate themselves by habitat and food. Although there are many field methods available for conducting avian ecological research; bird counts are a good way to estimate population size, detect changes in population size or species diversity, and determine the cause of the changes in environmental or habitat and plenty of data and research is collected. I will also analyze what type of environment theses birds like to be in and how do they function in certain areas as well as the type of food these birds like and dislike. I will be collecting my data and research in Bay St Louis, MS. This area has a lot of birds and a great place for doing research on the studies of birds. Since this time our research has to be...

...Introduction A rapidly increasing population in the United States is nothing new. There is nothing special about how often people are getting married and starting families. However, what is gaining popularity is how these families are able to care for one another. More often in today’s society, mothers, and sometimes fathers, are given greater opportunities to care for the newest editions of their families. Companies in the past 34 years have been required to grant new mothers time off, under the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, to recover from the stressful time of being pregnant, going through the process of giving birth, and of course, to take care of their newborn baby. Also, the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993 touches base on the fact that pregnant women are to be given time off – 12 weeks at least – of unpaid leave. The Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978, gives pregnant women the same rights as others with "medical conditions". This law applies to companies employing 15 or more people. It says: • Your employer cannot fire you because you are pregnant. • Your employer cannot force you to take mandatory maternity leave. • You must be granted the same health, disability, and sickness-leave benefits as any other employee who has a medical condition. • You must be given modified tasks; alternate assignments, disability leave, or leave without pay (depending on company policy). • You are allowed to work as long as you can perform your job. • You are guaranteed job security...

... The baby will typically be held by the mother, siblings, or any other present figure, sat on the him and held onto with one arm. During young childhood, Mbuti children play with “toys” that might not be considered typical for other cultures, or today’s technological society. Nets, spears, fire spears, tops, bark beaters, and bows are all typical “toys” of the Mbuti children. Much of what the Mbuti’s childhood play revolves around is actually teaching them valuable skills to become a respected member of the Mbuti culture. They do not play games but rather perform “rituals” or revolve around these valuable skill teachings. Mbuti culture drives the important concept that children have rights, and the importance of age at a young age. Every day, the children get to light the hunting fire that is set before the adults leave to hunt. This is a given chore for the children of the settlements because the Mbuti believe it instills responsibility into the children. Children often play away from the camp to be sure to stay out of the way of adults. Sometimes, camps will have “playgrounds” called “Bopi”. Here, all the Mbuti children can play together and learn valuable skills from one another. Typical play includes the hunting of forest rats, mice, and small fish. Once girls reach ages eight to ten, they will often help make twine, a sort of weaving used to make many things for the Mbuti culture. Children ages ten and up will leave the bopi and begin to take on many adult-like activities...

...History of NASCAR Did you know NASCAR was started because of a historical event in America’s history? The reason I have chosen this project because I grew up watching NASCAR every Sunday, and helping with my dad’s best friend’s race car. The thing I was trying to accomplish in this project was to get a better understanding of the background and history of NASCAR.
