...to be with a certain girl who left them. They were both sad and broken-hearted with the respective girls that they loved hooked up with another men. In the story Zita, Reteche was living alone since his girlfriend left him, as well as in the movie, Jay Gatsby was also living alone since he left his family when he was sixteen years old to earn a living. And lastly, the reason on why Zita from the city and Daisy left Reteche and Gatsby was similar wherein Zita from the city left Reteche because he was just an ordinary man and Zita from the city wanted a rich man, so she left him and clung to a rich guy, while Daisy did not wait for Gatsby anymore because before when there where still a spark between them, Gatsby used to be a nobody, so Daisy married Tom because she felt more secured with Tom because of his wealth and stability in life. I noticed only few differences between Reteche and Gatsby wherein I can say that there were more similarities between them in terms of how the story revolves. The first difference that I noticed was that Reteche was just a poor or average schoolteacher, while Gatsby was rich because he entered in smuggles and other illegal stuffs when he was in grief. The flow of their story was also different from each other, even though the story of Zita and The Great Gatsby revolved around a girl, Zita was about a schoolteacher who wanted to be alone and away from the girl who broke his...

...The Aborigines Protection Amending Act of 1915 B) Argue against the Protection Act I have chosen to argue question B, because I am against The Protection Act. The protection act was passed in 1897, where the chief protector, who was in charges and their guarding, he was allowed to remove children from their families. In 1971 the Aboriginal Protection Act stopped. The act gave the power to remove any child without any court order nor parental consent. The act provided full control, and therefore the Aborigines would lose their freedom. The government removed Aboriginal children from their families and where starting the process that created the Stolen Generation, also known as the Stolen Children. The article The Stolen Generation states that; “1 in 10 of all Aboriginal children were removed from their families in an effort to civilize them by assimilation into white society”, this entire quote is mindboggling because the word “civilize” is used derogatory as if Aborigines need taming like a wild animal. The mere fact that the government believes that the Aborigines so desperate need help makes them conceited. They were taken children from their families, and making them white because they though that it would improve their lives. Through a misguided attempt at helping the Aborigines, the government may have caused more damage than good. The whites thought that the Aborigines needed help to survive and that is just unreasonable because the Aborigines have been in Australia...

...Zita Feher WLCB Level3HSC 0060615 27 July 2015 Factors that Impact upon my Learning and Development In this assignment I will consider how different factors can impact on adult l1earning, including my own learning and development. INTRODUCTION Learning is a permanent change in behaviour or knowledge that comes from experience or training. What does this really mean? We all 'know things' and we can all perform a number of different behaviours. But where did all this come from? Some things are born with the individual. E.g the ability to eat or express basic emotions like happiness or sadness. Others must be acquired throughout life. Any knowledge or behaviour that we now possess but we were not born with, was somehow learned from the people and environment around us. Children are natural learners. They learn by from the way they are spoken to and generally, the way they are treated by the people around them. Imitation is one of the most important ways of acquisiton in childhood, later playing takes over and 'the learners' gather most of the information about the world around them through 'doing' and experiencing. Adult learning is different from childhood learning. With adult learning personal experience plays a big part in the learning process as new information is instinctively checked against the learners own experience. (This is probably one of the reasons why learning a foreign language as an adult is so different from learning it in childhood.) David Kolb...

...Biology Current Events Assignment Omar Patel May 6th, 2014 Scientists Discover Cosmic Factory for Making Building Blocks of Life September, 15, 3013 Zita Martins, Mark C. Price, Nir Goldman, Mark A. Sephton & Mark J. Burchell http://phys.org/news/2013-09-scientists-cosmic-factory-blocks-life.html In the article it states that when icy comets collide into a planet, amino acids are created. These are the building blocks of life and from the amino acids. This means that amino acids can be created anywhere in the world with these conditions. The article also states that a couple of moons of Saturn have the perfect environment for creating amino acids if a comet hits them. The researchers stated that the comets crash into the ground, which create shockwaves that create amino acids. The scientists figured this out by using a special gun that replicates the crash of a comet. This article is related to science/biology because it helps us understand how life first formed on Earth. I think this discovery will benefit everyone around the world equally because a common question usually asked is how the world was created in a scientific sense. Scientists will be very happy with this information because it would help them keep researching for ideas to satisfy peoples questions related to this topic. Sep. 15, 2013 — Scientists have discovered a 'cosmic factory' for producing the building blocks of life, amino acids, in research published today in the journal Nature Geoscience...

Is the company’s business model appealing? Why or why not?Business Model is used to exemplify the methods and ways which we used to generate planned revenue. The Costco’s business model is to generate high sales volume and rapid inventory turnover by offering low prices on limited selection of national branded and select private-label products in wide range of merchandise categories. Costco’s offers these products to their members who are of two types’ business members and gold star members.This business model is tempting because it gives a test to Costco’s management to continue to devise strategies and methods through which they can keep hold of existing members and catch the attention of new members. Otherwise they will suffer failure because there will be a risk that discontented members will not renew their membership. This business model takes company towards total quality management.2.

...Sara Wadlow PS 434 Research Paper May 3, 2015 Introduction The Syrian Civil War has resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. Since 2011, protests and attacks have been a daily occurrence, and the regime of Bashar Al-Assad has done what it believed was necessary to stop rebel forces and end protests. As such, Assad has committed many questionable, at best, and criminal, at worst, actions against the civilians of Syria in an effort to stop the rebels. The indiscriminate warfare Assad has used against Syrian citizens is shown in multiple international doctrines as illegal, and is thus a war crime, which should be prosecuted. The Statue of the International Criminal Court defines war crimes as “serious violations of the laws and customs applicable in international armed conflict” and “serious violations of the laws and customs applicable in an armed conflict not of an international character (ICRC 2016). Section IV of Rule 156 of the International Committee of the Red Cross, titled Other Serious Violations of International Humanitarian Law Committed During a Non-International Armed Conflict, lists use of prohibited weapons subject to criminal sanctions, and specifically references the Chemical Weapons Convention, Amended Protocol II to the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons, and the Ottawa Convention as laying the groundwork for this guideline. This paper will address historical context of the Syrian Civil War, United Nations documents concerning...

...Network Governance in Malaysia’s Telecommunications Industry G.Sivalingam School of Business Monash University E mail: sivalingam.vglingam@buseco.monash.edu.my Network Governance in Malaysia’s Telecommunications Industry Abstract The focus of this study is on the liberalization of the telecommunications industry, especially the mobile phone sector and the emerging network governance structure in the mobile phone sector. From being a monopoly of the government, telecommunications services are now being provided by a number of government linked privatized firms, private firms and a foreign firm with Malaysian partners. In the mobile phone market there are currently three firms that are competing for market share. However, there is a close connection between the firms because current government officers or retired government officers sit on the board of all four firms. An independent regulator, the Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) has been set up to facilitate and coordinate competition among the mobile phone firms and to ensure the efficient diffusion of accurate information. The elite connection between members of the board of the five firms and members of the MCMC, who are from the government and the private sector, also facilitates the flow of resources between the members of the network and the interconnection of services between the firms. The MCMC is also required to hold public hearings before making decisions and recommendations...

...World Dialogue on Regulation for Network Economies Regulation and Investment: Case study of Bangladesh Harsha de Silva[1] and Abu Saeed Khan[2] August 2004 Abstract The paper considers the available evidence in determining a relationship, if any, in the Telecom Regulatory Environment [TRE] of Bangladesh and investments in to its telecommunications industry over the last decade. TRE is segmented in to market entry, access to scarce resources, interconnection, tariff regulation and regulation of anti-competitive practices while investments are all non-divestiture foreign and domestic private and public investment. The TRE in Bangladesh is found to be wanting in all defined aspects. Interconnection is the worst of the five components, where a mobile only parallel network is being created due to regulatory ineffectiveness where almost ninety percent of mobile users do not have access to a fixed phone. Investments in to the fixed sector in Bangladesh dominated by the state owned virtual monopoly have been sorely inadequate and continue to be dictated by the funds availability [or lack thereof] of the Government. The mobile sector on the other hand has seen some amount of investments flowing in led by the widely acclaimed GrameenPhone. However, once standardized to compare across the region, it is found, even though using imperfect data to compare, that the reason for this flow could...

...rLiterary Analysis on Midsummer by Manuel Arguilla By gaaabilagan | March 2013 * Zoom In * Zoom Out Page 1 of 3 Set in a very hot summer day, Manuel Arguilla’s Midsummer is a story with a very short and simple plot. It is basically a story of a man meeting a very beautiful Filipina woman by the well in a sizzling summer day. It starts off with the man and his cart tied to his bull on a long dry road when he suddenly sees a woman who stood unmoving watching the man come towards her. The woman was described from head to toe with such detail as the man looked from a distance. The man followed the woman to the where she went and led him to the well under a big mango tree. He watched her as she filled the jar and placed it on top of her head. The woman leaves and the man goes to the well and gathers water for his bull and himself while still thinking of the woman. The man then eats his dinner under the shade of the tree when the woman comes back to refill her jar. As she fills her jar the man invites the woman referring to her as Ading, to eat with her. The woman then addresses the man as Manong and thankfully refuses his invitation to eat as she herself just ate. They converse and suddenly the woman spills water all over the food and apologizes by getting him water but the Manong insists that he fetch it from the well. Ading notices Manong’s well built muscles and body as he fetches water, showing her how strong he is. He drinks his water as Ading lifts the bucket for him...
