...Wallpaper the woman in question is clearly suffering. She does not get to see her own child, she cries easily, and gets little to no sleep at night because of the wallpaper in the room. “…and I did not make a very good case for myself, for I was crying before I had finished.” (Gilman) This fulfills one of the seven criteria for determining abnormality. The second criteria is Maladaptiveness which is fulfilled throughout the story as she starts to withdraw from her husband and his sister, keeping secrets from them as well as, toward the end of the story, being suspicious of them. “…but it exhausts me a good deal – having to be sly about it,” (Gilman) In the end the woman in the story believes that she ‘escaped’ from the wallpaper this fulfills the third criteria Statistical Deviance. “’I’ve got out at last,’ said I, ‘in spite of you and Jane. And I’ve pulled off most of the paper, so you can’t put me back!’”(Gilman) The fourth criteria, Violations of the Standards of Society, is fulfilled when she tears down the wallpaper although this in and of itself isn’t all that abnormal her reasoning was. “’I’ve got out at last,’ said I, ‘in spite of you and Jane. And I’ve pulled off most of the paper, so you can’t put me back!’”(Gilman) Another way she fulfills this is when she crawls around on the floor at the end of the story which causes her husband to faint. “I kept on creeping just the same,” (Gilman) When her husband fainted he fulfilled the Social Discomfort criteria because the...

...FEAR OF MYTHS CURTIS BRAY JR MY-HA NGUYEN ITT ARLINGTON Author Note Abstract When I was eight years old, I remember having had many scary things happen to me. There is one scary moment that I still remember like it was yesterday because it was very difficult to forget, especially when you have been traumatized by a scary situation. Being an eight year old child, all I wanted to do was play without thinking about the consequences of not obeying my mother. At that time, one of the myths was that if children did not obey their parents, they could see the devil. According to the myth, the devil would appear to the children because they opted to ignore what parents were asking them to do. There are many other myths like this one some of these myths my mother and grandparents told to my brothers and me about. I thought that they was making a lot of emphasis about these myths because they wanted us to be obedient all the time, and I was insisting on not believing them, but One day, my mom asked me if I could go to the store to buy something for her and I replied to her, “Mom, why do not you send my brother?” I told my mother I did not want to go outside because it was very dark. I remember it was around 8:30pm or 9:00pm. Having in mind that my mother was getting angry at me because I was not obeying her, I decided I was not going to do what I was being asked to do. Finally my mom forced me to go to the store and she said to me, “The devil is going to appear to you, and...

...Art Paper Assignment For this assignment, I really wanted to specifically choose three pieces that conveyed not just my senses, but rather, I wanted something to reach out and pull me in, like a moth drawn to flames. As naïve as this might sound, I searched for pieces that had a certain quality that would take my breath away, make me feel as if time had stopped; I guess what I was searching for was something that appealed to my emotions. Even though the museum was filled with many beautiful pieces of art, I only found one piece that stood out and grabbed me in the way that I wanted. With the other two pieces that I chose, I found myself asking why the artists of those pieces would go about doing things in the way that they did. I found myself drawn to the last two pieces, not in an emotional manner, but rather enthralled by an intellectual curiosity. Regardless of the way I was drawn to each piece, I found the analysis of piece to be equally interesting. I will describe, to the best of my abilities, the physical description of each piece, their individual significance, what the pieces conveyed, and my personal reflections on each of the pieces. The artist of the first piece, entitled “Motherhood” (1930-1931), is Roberto Montenegro, a Mexican artist (1885-1968), and it was done through the medium of watercolor on paper. The first thing that is noticeable in the painting are the two figures, one feminine and the other masculine, that are seated with their backs against...

...1. Executive summary This paper will study a contract, common in business law; but more specifically, this report will analyze a credit card agreement from CIBC Visa. In studying this contract, it will show what a contract is and the legal framework that it implies. In studying the clauses of this contract, one will familiarize oneself with the legal terms and jargon that all contracts consist of. In explaining these clauses, one might be able to divide them into twelve main principles that a contracting agreement should consist of. This paper will then analyze the clauses and any potential flaws or problems, and later suggest changes that should be applied. These can be considerable change, for instance, adding or removing clauses or can be simply a small change, such as changing a few words in a clause or fixing a spelling error. This report will then move on to challenge the legal reasoning of the contract and finally explain the legal corrective measures that are identified at the end of this paper. All of these things will be tied into the general foundation of business law and how they all connect. 3 2.

...Term Paper: Strategic Planning & Performance Improvement Carlos N. Green Saint Gregory August 17, 2013 Abstract This paper takes a look at the effectiveness of the strategic plan and performance improvement in the healthcare organization that I have been a part of for the last 13 years. I am knowledgeable of the organizations’ strategic plan and have seen its growth. It will take the side of showing how a local non-profit organization has proven to be effective by many different measures, for example, new structures, new learning facilities, and new upgrades to facilities to offer many more services so that the county can get the best health care locally and may not have to travel to surrounding counties to be served. Show how the organization has gone beyond the road map to show the local residents that when they implemented their new strategic plain in 2008, they knew that it would be just a matter of time before the organization should grow and extend many possibilities to physicians, employees and patients. Main Body Strategic planning and performance improvement calls for the organizations’ growth to meet the needs of its services by improving their quality and services. I have had the opportunity to be a part of this growing organization for thirteen years and to be shown the effectiveness of its strategic plan to offer growth in the community by putting the actions behind their words.

...Personality Evaluation Paper Maria Lopez Regent University Personality traits describe the frequency or intensity of a person’s feelings, thoughts, or behaviors, so possession of these traits can be thought of as a matter of degree. The Purpose of the IPIP-NEO is to educate the public about the five factor model of personality, the report explains the likely consequences of one's standing on five broad personality domains, this inventory estimates your standing on the 5 broad domains and 30 sub domains of personality, and the report is designed to be objective, not pleasing or flattering (Johnson, 2013). I was not overly excited to take this personality questionnaire. I have done several of these types of questionnaires over the years and the outcome is always different. When I was a senior in high school we did a personality assessment that turned out to be the complete opposite of who I was at the time. The next few that I completed were not as far off, but were still not accurate. When I completed this questionnaire I was surprised that the findings were not to far off from what I am actually going through. For the last six months I have been dealing with some health issues that have caused depression and I feel have affected who I am. I am usually an extraverted person and with the questions that I answered it showed that I am introverted, reserved and quiet. I was surprised, but with what I have been going through I have not been as social as I generally am. The...
