...property is murky, the powerful determination of J. Frank Norris turned this piece of land from a blight into a blessing. The incredible story of this plot of land is told in Images of America: Top O’ Hill Terrace by Vickie Bryant and Camille Hess. Although the tale of this transformation seems unbelievable, it is nevertheless encouraging and inspiring. One of the most amazing parts of the story is how this piece of property was radically transformed. Originally, Beulah Adams Marshall purchased this land and built a house for a tearoom along the Bankhead Highway. This Top O’ Hill Terrace tearoom became quite famous, not only for the tea and the home-cooked meals, but also because it was positioned on an attractive tree-covered hill overlooking Arlington and Fort Worth. However, the innocent tearoom would soon see a dramatic transformation as Fred Browning considered it for a nice gambling location....

...magazine, February 2011. You know – like mountain tops, the Grand Canyon, the Empire State Building or the bow of the Titanic (before it sank). Maynard and Stow offer remarkably few opportunities to be in a place where distant vistas are a view. Once upon a time Summer Hill, now tree-covered and trail-crossed, was open pasture. History Society pictures taken as recently as World War II show an expanse with few trees. Decades earlier, state surveyors installed an official stone marker atop Summer Hill, with the expectation that from that point, clear viewing was available in all directions. Marble Hill, at 440 feet, the highest elevation in Stow, is similarly tree-obstructed. Stow does offer a hill with a present-day view. Stories hold that ships’ pilots in Boston harbor used the stand of pine trees atop Pilot Grove Hill as a navigational landmark, suggesting that in the reverse direction a person atop the hill could see Boston’s skyscrapers. Alas, not so. Mayhap from a treetop, but not from ground level. However, Birch Hill Road, elevation 370 feet, does offer a glimpse of Mt. Wachusett, twenty miles to the northwest. Bridges can offer vistas. White Pond Road over the Assabet River, on the Stow/Maynard border, offers good views up and down river – albeit less than a mile’s length combined. The bridge is 120-feet in length with a surface 10-feet above the water. Parking is not permitted, but there are places along the shoulder to pull over and briefly leave the car as...

...End of Life Issues One patient at Little Falls Hospital is causing ethical issues with end of life decision making for the family her husband and her mom. Lydia, a 45-year-old woman suffered severe trauma in a car accident, six months ago. Lydia is dependent on a ventilator for breathing and a feeding tube for nourishment. The accident left her paralyzed and her awareness is uncertain because she communicates by nodding her head. The patient’s physician Dr. Bob Pritchard, who is in charge of Lydia’s care, is not very confident about her recovery. Lydia’s husband, Mr. Bevin, says his wife would not want to be kept alive in this fashion and does not know the location of her advance directives. Unfortunately, Lydia’s mother, Eileen Redfield, believes in miracles and end of life is not an option for her. The battle of emotions between mother and husband has Dr. Pritchard in the middle. Mr. Bevin states that before their marriage Lydia had written an advance directive but he was unable to locate the document. Without knowing her advance directives, it became the responsibility of her love ones to make the final decision about continued care or termination. For someone as critical as Lydia, end of the life decisions are not an option for Lydia’s mom. On the other hand, her husband thinks that Lydia should not have to suffer in this way and agrees to end life. It is not easy for anyone involved and having to make an ethical decision to end life. The end-of-life critical care cases...

...indicating some degree of self interest (Ricard, 2011). A number of historical figures and other individuals have been implicated in the demonstration of altruism. Below are five examples of altruistic behaviors. Example 1- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (Activism) One example of altruistic behavior was demonstrated by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He emphasized on the need of equality and basic civil rights for all. He labored hard and was committed to ensuring that democracy and justice was practiced irrespective of an individual’s race and social status. King did not mind facing the dangers that were associated with his fight against injustice. His ultimate sacrifice was demonstrated through his death, since he was killed for trying to improve the welfare and lives of others (Myers, 2014). Martin Luther’s altruistic behavior was a product of modeling. For instance, Kail and Cavanaugh (2015) explain that King’s pursuit of civil rights and equality for African Americans was significantly influenced by Mohandas Gandhi, a political leader, Henry David Thoreau, an American philosopher, and his father, Dr. martin Luther King Sr. For instance, Martin Luther Sr. was an anti-discrimination activist. Therefore, by observing his father fight for equality and justice for black people, Dr. Martin Jr. imitated the pro-social behavior of his father, hence felt the need to fight for people’s civil rights. Children are more likely to engage in pro-social...

...Face-Negotiation Theory (Conflict) Dr. Stella Ting-Toomey developed the Face Negotiation Theory as a way of describing how people from different cultural backgrounds handle conflict with each other. She bases her theory on two basic concepts: Face (how we want people to see us/our public self image), and Facework (ways of handling conflict). She has identified 7 core assumptions and 5 empirical propositions that when used in tandem illustrate the Face Negotiation Theory as of 2010. A copy of the assumptions and propositions has been attached at the end of this document. Regarding the first concept—Face (also described as self-face concern), to people from the east and some middle-east countries (China, Japan, Egypt, Iran) the concept of face is multi-faceted with its origins going back to the time of Confucius. For them, face involves the feelings of respect, honor, status and connection. The concept of Face is a very serious issue. Infact, under some conditions, it can be a life or death issue. One can save face, give face and have face taken away from them. For people mainly from the west such as the US, face is not a complicated thing--it usually just means the saving of face—we know we have it, and we don’t want to lose it (i.e. embarrassment in front of others). As you can see, there are huge differences in how each culture views the concept of face. This is a prime example of something that can and will cause serious intercultural conflict. To help...

...been handled differently for numerous years in the United States? Martin Luther King Jr. posed this very question in his “I Have A Dream” speech to the American people. In August of 1963, Dr. King delivered the speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. His speech contained multiple rhetorical devices, including repetition, allusion, imagery, symbolism, and irony. Rhetorical devices are used in order to arouse an emotion, inspire to take action, and persuade a new point of view. This speech is celebrated as one of the most inspirational speeches in history, and it served as the turning point of the Civil Rights Movement. Throughout “I Have A Dream,” Dr. King emphasizes that segregation is erroneous by utilizing different literary elements....

...PART 7: ACCOUNTING FOR EQUITY INTERESTS IN OTHER ENTITIES Chapter 24 Accounting for group structures 1. The consolidated financial statements provide an aggregation of the financial statements of a group of separate legal entities to provide financial statements drawn up to reflect a perspective of the group as a single economic entity. Therefore, the purpose of providing consolidated financial statements is to show the results and financial position of a group as if it were operating as a single economic entity. In doing this the users of the information are able to gain a clear picture of the activities of the parent and all its controlled subsidiaries. The consolidated statement of financial position will show the total assets controlled by the economic entity (group) and the total liabilities owed to parties outside the economic entity. All liabilities owing to, and amounts receivable from, organisations within the group (that is, within the economic entity) will be eliminated in the consolidation process, and will not be shown in the consolidated statement of financial position. The reason for this is that the consolidated financial statements are produced so as to show the results and financial position of a group of organisations as if they are operating as a single economic entity. Within an economic entity it does not make sense to ‘owe itself’ funds; hence it would be illogical to include receivables and payables that are owed/receivable within the economic entity...

...From 1840 until the Civil War the largest producers of cotton came from the five-county region of Adams, Claiborne, Franklin, Jefferson, and Wilkinson. Cotton plantations in Mississippi and Louisiana used the port of Natchez to supply the textile hunger of Europe. Cotton was king! The slave trade was equally lucrative at the largest slave market outside of New Orleans “The Forks of the Road Slave Market at Natchez, Mississippi”. This market was the at the end of the “Trace” which became the road of the “second middle passage”. Samuel Scott traded and purchased slaves as well as sold cotton at Natchez. Thirty miles due south of Natchez was Poplar Hill Plantation, located in Jefferson County. The trip from Poplar Hill to Natchez would have been an all-day ride along rough, rut filled, and if raining, muddy, soft, and difficult roads to maneuver. From the 1860 United States Federal Census-Slave Schedule Samuel Scott had 167 slaves from all his plantations regrettably Delaney selected many of the 167 slaves. Was there a psychological value and a lasting effect of a slave accompanying the slaveholder to the slave markets? Absolutely! Samuel Scott, an astute businessman and certainly as a slave owner...

...with DR AZIZ, a handsome widower, and FIELDING, the outspoken principal of the British college. Aziz invites his new friends on a picnic expedition to view the famous Marabar caves in the hills outside the city. He goes to extravagant lengths to impress them, including the hiring of an elephant, but the day ends in chaos when Adela claims to have been assaulted in one of the caves by Dr Aziz. She is rushed back to Chandrapore as Aziz is arrested and thrown into jail to await trial. Certain that his friend is innocent, Fielding joins Aziz’s friends in an attempt to exonerate him but they are met with resistance at every turn by the irate British community, who close ranks around Adela. A strong case is built against Aziz and his defence becomes a rallying point for the burgeoning Independence Movement. Mrs Moore, who wants no part of the proceedings, leaves the city and dies in her railway carriage. With the future of the British Raj at stake, all eyes are on Chandrapore as the trial opens. As Adela is being led through the specifics of the fateful day, she backs down and refuses to name Aziz as her assailant, claiming that he is innocent. It is a total vindication for Aziz and a humiliating defeat for the local British establishment, who are all either recalled or forced to resign their posts. Ronny, who has no other choice but to end his engagement to Adela, places her into Fielding’s care. As Fielding sees Adela off to start a new life in England, they are watched by Dr Aziz...

...Weekly Reflection Ruben I. Torres, Jr., Cheyenne Blue, Marsha Scott, Catherine Caughrean ECO 365 2-20-13 Dr. Lin Weekly Reflection In week one on ECO 365 our team discussed the many different areas which create economics in the modern world. The objectives were clearly outlined in the syllabus which Dr. Lin provided to Team A. Differentiate between Macroeconomics and Microeconomics The first objective we discussed was the difference between Macro and Micro economics. Since both studies deal with the economic decision making process, the one aspect which separates them would be that Microeconomics is the study of economics from the view point of a firm or individuals. Macroeconomics is the study of economics from the view point of a society or nation. This aspect would study the budget or a government or GDP of a nation. Supply and Demand The second area which we discussed was the effects of supply and demand. It was nice to get a better idea on how the costs of goods are affected by the amount of goods available for distribution at any given period. By studying the buying trends of individuals, companies are able to control the price and the supply of goods for consumers. If a company wishes to charge an outrages price for a product and have consumers pay the amount, they simply produce a low quantity of the product. A good example of this would be the way Sony released the new Playstation 3 (PS3). When the PS3 system first came...
