...Jefferson’s ability to write made him prominent author of write the Declaration of Independence, (among other significant works). Jefferson’s writings reflected on the rights of mankind and what rights a government must offer its people. His use of words to fight for Human rights makes him one of the greatest American Hero’s. Thomas Jefferson’s writings on basic human rights caused a radical shift in American Colonist thoughts and these stunning ideas would influence the Americans to break away from Great Britain. “As a boy, Thomas Jefferson’s was shy and often tongue-tied…Preferred the company of books to that of most people.” (Wilmore, 1) These were words to describe the young Jefferson; his childhood would prove to be a key in shaping the man, who through his words would change a nation. Jefferson was born on April 13th 1743, in Shadwell Virginia. During his childhood he would spend 15 hours each day reading and writing, this would prove to make his writing skills at a high level (1). As he grew into an adult he would study law in his home of Virginia at the William and Mary College at Williamsburg (Bottorff, 15). During this time he would become a member of the Whig party and would advocate for the rights and liberties of mankind (Peterson, 1). It was in his childhood and as turned into an adult which he learned how to write and how to express his political views through words. “For Thomas Jefferson, the pen truly was mightier than the sword. From his pen flowed some of the worlds...

...may you never miss your future in Jesus name. However, securing a profitable future is more than positive thinking and negative rejection. Your destiny is a choice and not a chance. The task before you is ensuring that you position your ladder on the right wall and climbing the ladder to the top notwithstanding the challenges, obstacles and distractions on the way. You have only one life to live and you must not miss it. God’s plan for you and all his children is to give us a glorious future. No matter whom you are, no matter your background, no matter where you come from, God has a great plan for you. God said: “For I know the thought I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope” (Jeremiah 29:11).With this, we have confident assurance that God’s thought, God’s plan for us is a great and glorious future. Every one desires a glorious and profitable future but few eventually enjoy it though it’s God plan for his children. The question then is why? Why do people miss out of God’s glorious plan in spite of their desire? You do not earn a glorious future by mere desire. It is a choice not a chance. Many never take their future with seriousness. They toy and gamble with their today and thus inevitably move progressively towards a detestable and inglorious future. A good example is the Israelites. These were God’s people with great promises. God delivered them out of...

People also question why God does not take away the suffering of people from the world. Again, a theodicy can give an explanation to this question. The big-plan theodicy explains that suffering may be part of God’s big plan and needs to happen for good of humanity. There are two...

...After reading through Genesis 1-11, it become apparent that the natural world was created by the all might God for man to enjoy, and throughout history, mankind has an inclination to stray from God’s plan to follow their own. This straying would inevitably result in man’s depravity and consequences from God himself. From the start of Genesis we see a progression of mankind’s morality drifting further and further from God. Man strays so far down the path of evil that God Himself regrets the world he created (Genesis 6:6-7). Ever since Adam and Eve disobeyed God’s first commandment, His creation has been plunged into darkness, and the natural order of the world has been turned upside down. When one reads through the first eleven chapters of...

...where they play, on the way to and from school. Some are being shot just because they are in the wrong place at the wrong time. Just like Jason the main character, Mann’s, little brother. Jason was playing outside his house and a man was chasing another one with a gun and Jason was the victim. He was hit by the bullet and died. The first chapter of the books begins with the statement, “They kill people where they live, they shoot them for no real reason” That is what happened to Jason, he was shot for no real reason. The death of Jason drove his mother almost crazy and his father tried to force Mann to grow up too soon. He wanted him to be tough and act like a man. Maybe he wanted this because he wanted him to survive living where he lived and not be killed like his brother. Sharon Flake starts her book with the poem, “Boys Ain’t Men… Not Yet. Did Mann’s father realize that when he took him and his best friend Keelee on a camping trip. Going camping was not something that they had done before. They were used to hanging out around their house, so when they heard about camping they thought that this would be great. They did not have any idea about his father’s real plan. What does it mean to act like a man? Did he want him to know how to make the right decisions to stay safe? Did he want him to be able to take care of himself and not depend on him. Dad would always tell Mann “Men don’t …..” and Mann would tell him “I ain’t no...

...Overview Mountain Man Beer Company (MMBC) is experiencing the first decline in sales since its establishment in 1925. Suggestions such as remaining status quo, promoting Mountain Man Lager, and introducing a light beer, may be considered to help MMBC in its future survival. Analysis of Alternatives To analyse the potential impact of these solutions, we have used MMBC’s SWOT analysis (Appendix 1) and STP analysis (Appendix 2). Sales of premium beer have been declining by 4% each year since 2000.With increase in excise tax and competition from other companies, lager beer consumption is expected to decrease over the next few years. By remaining status quo, it is foreseeable that MMBC will continue to lose sales in their one and only product, Lager, due to the decrease in demand. Thus, there is a need for them to take action. Greater marketing efforts may be injected to boost the sales of Lager. However, as the beer market is diminishing, it is likely that this will prove futile. Furthermore, MMBC has limited financial resources to fight for higher market share from the current major producers such as Anheuser Busch and Miller Brewing Company. Despite his father’s opposition, Chris should still go into light beer, as it is hard to ignore the fact that it is a growing market, while premium beer is a declining market. The company’s ultimate aim is survival and profit maximisation, and stubbornly refusing to adapt to market trends may compromise that aim. Profitability...

Her disbelief in the will of Macbeth conflicts with her hunger for power and decides she will have to convince Macbeth herself. When Macbeth returns from his victory, announcing that King Duncan will be spending the night at their castle, Lady Macbeth see’s a promising opportunity to kill the King and wastes no time in presenting Macbeth with her plan. Later on, Macbeth no longer wishes to kill the King, Lady Macbeth is outraged and starts to question his manhood, “ when you durst do it, then you were a man; and to be more than what you were, you would be so much more the man”(1.7.56.57). Lady Macbeth is now provoking Macbeth by challenging his man hood, Lady Macbeth is...

...Second degree murder is still murder with the intent to harm someone and planning it out over time and actually doing it. A man comes home and finds his wife to cheating he is upset and grabs his stuff and leaves. Over a few weeks, he plans to kill the guy she was cheating with. This would be second degree murder because he planned it out and he actually did it. Voluntary manslaughter is heat of the moment, you get mad at something and act on it right then, no time to plan it out. An example is the man comes home and finds his wife cheating and kills the other man she is cheating with. He didn’t plan it out but he did still kill the other man. This college student didn’t plan on harming anyone, he just wanted to go home. He didn’t say to himself,...

...6 REASONS WHY EVERY MAN HAS GOT TO FIND THE RIGHT WOMAN. I suggest then, that the Woman that a Man picks as a mate will either CATAPULT him into his DESTINY or DRUG him into MEDIOCRITY! In fact, any man who does not have a “Woman” PUSHING him to the TOP, usually has a “Chic” DRUGGING him to the bottom. Here are 6 reasons why every man has to do whatever it takes to find the RIGHT woman: 1. Any woman can keep a man SEXUALLY satisfied, but only the RIGHT woman can, keep you the man INTELLECTUALLY inspired. 2. Any woman can arouse a man EMOTIONALLY, but only the RIGHT woman can, in the words of Beyonce “upgrade” a man SPIRITUALLY! 3. Any woman can pressure a man to draw up a WEDDING PLAN, but only the RIGHT woman can, in the words of Tyler Perry, challenge a man to write a BUSINESS PLAN. 4. Any woman can French kiss a man, but only the RIGHT woman can, in the words of King Solomon SPEAK WISDOM into a man’s head. 5. Any woman can FALL in love with a man, but only the RIGHT woman can, STAND UP and PULL him UP when he is broke! 6. Any woman can feed a man’s stomach with her kitchen skills, but only the RIGHT woman can feed, in the words of John Legend, “ALL” OF A MAN’s BEING… SPIRIT, INTELLECT AND BODY. In the end, let me conclude with this. It becomes clear once you study the Titans of History from WinstonS Churchill to Abraham Lincoln, from Nelson Mandela...
