...Zoos are internment camps for animals and should be shut down. As a kid I loved going to the Zoo. I especially enjoyed the one in Houston Texas. When we are young we like to see animals. Petting an animal, like a tiger or a lion was a great challenge, yet it was exiting. When we are young seen an animal behind the bars of a cage is an awesome feeling. It does not matter what animal, either a tiger or even a Zebra they are a beautiful and exotic. One thing many people don’t realize is how I fell about the animals been in the cage. On my eight birth day I got a big present. My parents gave me a dog, and I named it Jimmy. When my parents gave me the dog they both told me “son this little pet is like a human you have to treated good like how you would like to be treated ok.” After my firs dog Jimmy I realize that many people don’t think about animal and their feeling. Animals are just living creatures to many. Zoo look at animals like a great business. Keeping all the animals in a limited perimeter is awful. A monkey especially they are keep in a metal box with bars. I bet that they fill like criminals, but with no felonies or crimes. A habitat for a monkey it’s a place with limitless area so that he can jump around everywhere. In some zoo they have bigger cages for animals; it does not make a difference how big or small they are, because at the end they are still trap. Many animals die in the zoo. Why do the animals die in the zoo? That is a question many ask. They...

...Yazan Arafeh November 23, 2011 L.A/Block 4 Animal Farm Chapters 1-2 “Word had gone round during the day that old Major, the prize Middle Wight boar, had had a strange dream on the previous night and wished to communicate it to the other animals…Old Major (so he was always called, though the name under which he had been exhibited was Willingdon Beauty) was so highly regarded on the farm that everyone was quite ready to lose an hour’s sleep in order to hear what he had to say.”(pg 15) This is an exposition. It explains who old Major is. It explains that old Major is not his actual name. He is the boar. He is also a very important animal in the story because it says he was so highly regarded. The animals respected him like a high person. He was probably the king of the animals. Chapter 2 “And so, before they knew what was happening, the Rebellion had been successfully carried through: Jones was expelled, and the Manor Farm was theirs.”(pg 29) It was so unexpected that it would happen so fast. I thought the Rebellion of the animals against Man would take a very long time such as a year or ten years. It happened so fast that I was shocked. Chapter 1 Question Old Major tries to persuade the animals into a Rebellion against Man. He tells the animals what their life is right then and now, and also tells them what their life will be when they succeed in the Rebellion against Man. He persuades them by describing to all the animals how miserable, and short their...

...Paws before Hands Flipping through the telly channels, I came across a video of a small, big-eyed puppy, not longer than twelve inches, nor taller than half a foot, scurrying fast away to meet its’ owner with its mouth poised ready to administer those slobbery wet affectionate kisses. As the owner, slowly begins to ruffle the velvet soft fur, a wide smile spreads across the owners’ already wet slippery face. However, as soon as the owner rises their hand to smite that small big-eyed puppy: the once velvety fur begins to find its’ way on to the floor, the once affectionate kisses, no longer met the owner’s face. What heartless person would live to see an animal suffer? How cold are the hearts of those who will not see the smiles, feel the warmth that these animals bring into our world? I strongly believe that animals should be free, and should not suffer, because we decide that they are not worthy of our time. Growing up in East Africa, Uganda, loving an animal was something I was told not to do. We were to treat them as animals, things that had no feelings: They were animals, just emotionless things. Times, I had watched people chase and a time beat their pets, if they dared enter the house or eat off their plates. I was completely naïve about the whole situation, of how horribly most animals were treated. I had not really cared much about the way animals were treated until the day I hit my dog with a stick [aged 8]. That look in his eyes, said everything, I had lost his trust...

...Some people claim that everyday thousands of people are saved from painful diseases and death by powerful medical drugs and treatments . This incredible gift of medicine would not be possible without animal testing . Despite these overwhelming benefits , however , some individuals are calling for animal testing to be banned because of alleged cruelty. Those who are against the use of animal testing argue that it is inhumane to use animals in save human’s existence. However I completely disagree with such approach. It would be much more inhumane to test new drugs or some other medical elements on children or adults because all people are like big family and therefore people should not put their lives under risk. The second reason why I am in favour of animal testing is that the result of medical experiments are not often applicable to humans .this maybe partly true as some drugs have had to be withdrawn despite being tested on men , therefore as we simply do not have alternative methods of testing , because computer models are not so advanced enough and testing on plants is much less applicable to humans than test on animals such as monkeys . Unless we have a better system we have to use animal testing to provide human’s safety when scientist using drugs A further point often raised against animal testing is that it is cruel . some of the test certainly seem painful , but the great majority of people on this planet eat meat or wear...

...Suffering: Learning Not to Care and Not to Know” “Animal Suffering: Learning Not to Care and Not to Know,” by William Crain addresses the issue humans have created in relation to raising children and killing animals for meat. The topic of killing animals, even for food, is always in debate. It becomes evident at a young age that children have a profound love for animals. In a specific 1999 study performed by Psychologist David Foulkes, it was found that kids under the age of seven tend to dream about animals, in one way or another. Most children understand that animals are their own beings and should be treated with respect, but what they don’t understand is that meat comes from many of the animals they care about so deeply. When kids find out about animals dying in order for meat to be produced, they immediately want to become a vegetarian. Due to their ages, these decisions are highly irrational, but still require parents to spend hours convincing their kids to abandon vegetarianism. Animals and people struggle to live in peace together, and young children dream of a harmless world. There is not enough research on the subject matter of how children react to choices made by adults with respect to animals and food. Going through life allows children to transform from a caring child to a detached adult. This transformation is crucial to understand the practices and lifestyles followed by the human race. From late 2005 through the present, a study was conducted to determine the...

...Knowledge and Justified Belief What is knowledge? This is the question we used to be sure of according to Plato’s theory of recollection, which tells that the knowledge is the justified belief; if this belief is true, then there is some fact make the proposition for this belief to be true; since the belief is justified by some evidence; therefore people comes up with the standard analysis of knowledge. This idea has been generally agreed till Edmund Gettier came up with the article questioning if knowledge is the justified true belief. Gettier provides two cases wherein intuitively the subject gains a justified true belief does not equal to knowledge. By contrast, Gettier’s arguments indicate the situation in which someone has a belief that is both true and well supported by evidence but fails to be knowledge. That is, it is sufficient and necessary to have belief, truth and justification to define knowledge as in classical theory, yet, the Gettier’s theory by questioning knowledge that justifiably believe one of the true proposition and dismiss the other is necessary and sufficient add-on to the classical theory to redefine knowledge. First of all, according to Plato’s theory of knowledge, that knowledge is justified true belief, or as Gettier concluded Plato’s classical theory of knowledge as: “ S knows that P if and only if P is true; S believes in P and S is justified in believing P” (Gettier 1). In the Meno, written by Plato, he believes that knowledge appears to...

...Item Analysis Item Analysis allows us to observe the characteristics of a particular question (item) and can be used to ensure that questions are of an appropriate standard and select items for test inclusion. Introduction Item Analysis describes the statistical analyses which allow measurement of the effectiveness of individual test items. An understanding of the factors which govern effectiveness (and a means of measuring them) can enable us to create more effective test questions and also regulate and standardise existing tests. There are three main types of Item Analysis: Item Response Theory, Rasch Measurement and Classical Test Theory. Although Classical Test Theory and Rasch Measurement will be discussed, this document will concentrate primarily on Item Response Theory. The Models Classical Test Theory Classical Test Theory (traditionally the main method used in the United Kingdom) utilises two main statistics - Facility and Discrimination. * Facility is essentially a measure of the difficulty of an item, arrived at by dividing the mean mark obtained by a sample of candidates and the maximum mark available. As a whole, a test should aim to have an overall facility of around 0.5, however it is acceptable for individual items to have higher or lower facility (ranging from 0.2 to 0.8). * Discrimination measures how performance on one item correlates to performance in the test as a whole. There should always be some correlation between item and test performance...

...without a care in the world! Even the most carefully planned project can run into trouble. No matter how well you plan, your project can always run into unexpected problems. Team members get sick or quit, resources that you were depending on turn out to be unavailable—even the weather can throw you for a loop. So does that mean that you’re helpless against unknown problems? No! You can use risk planning to identify potential problems that could cause trouble for your project, analyze how likely they’ll be to occur, take action to prevent the risks you can avoid, and minimize the ones that you can’t. this is a new chapter 543 risks might occur What’s a risk? There are no guarantees on any project! Even the simplest activity can run into unexpected problems. Any time there’s anything that might occur on your project and change the outcome of a project activity, we call that a risk. A risk can be an event (like a fire), or it can be a condition (like an important part being unavailable). Either way, it’s something that may or may not happen... but if it does, then it will force you to change the way you and your team will work on the project. If your project requires that you stand on the edge of a cliff, then there’s a risk that you could fall. If it’s very windy out or the ground is slippery and uneven, then falling is more likely. A risk is any uncertain event or condition that might affect your project. Not all risks are negative. Not all risks are negative ...

...1.SWOT Analysis The SWOT analysis is a business analysis technique that your organization can perform for each of its products, services, and markets when deciding on the best way to achieve future growth. The process involves identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the organization, and opportunities and threats present in the market that it operates in. The first letter of each of these four factors creates the acronym SWOT. As a manager, your role in any strategic planning is likely to involve providing operational data to help assess the internal capabilities, and (depending on your job function) you may also be asked to provide market intelligence. The completion of a SWOT analysis should help you to decide which market segments offer you the best opportunities for success and profitable growth over the life cycle of your product or service. The SWOT analysis is a popular and versatile tool, but it involves a lot of subjective decision making at each stage. It should always be used as a guide rather than as a prescription and it is an iterative process. There is no such thing as a definitive SWOT for any particular organization because the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats depend to a large extent on the business objective under consideration. KEY POINTS 1. SWOT Analysis provides information that helps in synchronizing an organization’s resources and capabilities with the external environment in which the organization operates. ...

...difficulties in interpersonal communication. Another danger gets into the picture as people try hard avoiding situations where they blame other people and as a solution to this they tend to avoid communicating with the affected people. (Garrett, 1967).Problem causes should be pointed out therefore, without any adore and their root causes found out. This though will take time as serious conversations will need to be held in order to make them completely aware of their accountability roles and obligations. When accountability seeks to determine the objective of a given problem, blames ignores and do not undertake to find out the root cause of some problems. Accountability will therefore, undertake to align organizational objectives with some actions such as wanting some people out of the organization due to non accountability issues. Accountability will seek avoid countermeasure decisions that blames will encourage. (Garrett, 1967). Accountability will seek to find out the actual facts through understanding of the problem at hand. It also tends to disregard the reported or second hand information and data that blame situations would advocate this point accountability will seek to trace the history of the problem at hand to get first hand information and facts that blame cannot reach. Accountability will also seek to fit the findings together by making big picture reflections on someone’s problem. This will help find out problems experienced and how best the problem is getting...
