...provided which translate Arabizi to the standard Arabic language. Example Basis Technology (2011). This leaves us with the question, "Did this new phenomenon create a whole new language?". Produced in 2005, filmed in Jordan, Kuwait and Egypt. This new phenomenon has been explored by Dalia Al Khury (Ikbis,2010). Dalia Al Khury provides an eye-opening information on this issue and a variety of views. The three main characters she interviews in the documentary are Arabizi speakers Aysha Al Khaldi, Lamya Tawfeq and Wisam Dhubaibah. Among the other interviewees are academics (what do you mean academics), a producer at MBC, and Arab locals. The documentary grabs the viewers’ attention by combining contradictory points of view from experts in education, while also allowing the viewer to listen to the Arabizi speakers' and their parents'/friends' point of views. Due to globalization, in today's world the west has become the center of power, and control. The western invasion of the east, has led Arabs to welcome the idea of combining the western and eastern culture, or completely eliminating the Arab culture and replacing it with that of the west without hesitation. The documentary acknowledges this, when Dalia Al Khury interviews Dr. Hisham Ghaseeb, Dean of "Princess Sumaya University" in Jordan. He aims to awaken the Arab nations' consciousness, in order to do so, he encourages Arabs to incorporate the Arabic culture and language back into their lives. Dr. Hisham believes that the new...

With this that she said it made it so clear to be that only a small fraction of Muslims think and commit those acts, but we all choose to see Islam as a threat. As a religion/background that focuses on nothing other than terrorist attacks. We the human race rarely connect the KKK with Christianity, because we know that is not what that faith explores and only a few percent went that direction and took it the extreme....

...How is it that an innocent game would lead to a future of unwanted consequences? No one expects the worst until it finally happens to them. My little sister is very competitive when it comes to winning. Eager to have a slight taste of victory was all it took for her to get into “Game Mode” as I would like to call it. She’ll be too focused on winning and stealing the ball from me that she will do anything to win. It was early in the morning, there were birds chirping while a cool breeze was in the air. Dalia, my little sister, and I arrived outdoors to play a game of soccer. I dashed towards the goal with the soccer ball in front of me ecstatically thinking that I was on my way to making a goal. Unexpectedly, my sister catches up and steals the ball away from me. Surprised, I tried to steal it from her but failed as I heard the ball hit the net...

...Jordan that causes the Arabic language to slowly fade away. This article interprets the reasoning behind why the young generation is using this language that helps them to express their opinions easier about unmannered topics spoken in the public by using English rather than Arabic, as it can be imposed differently in Arabic. However, linguists think that English language is destroying Arabic language from the American pop culture. The author points out in his article that Arabizi is being widely used by well-educated Jordanians class, which is drawing away the native language and exposing a social and economic gap in the country.. Finally, the author then concludes his piece by giving a brief about a documentary called “Arabizi” directed by Dalia Alkury and providing a quote from the director that brief states that even though the director speaks Arabizi, she is still close to her culture.

...nature Vs nurture Nature versus nurture have a many articles. Nature Versus nurture include inherited genes or the environmental influences and effects that develop our personality whether our behavior , or ability or our intelligence. Autism in children is a subject that can be clarified by nature or nurture. This essay will discuss the difficulties, symptoms, and the causes of autism. Firstly, many autistic children have obstruction issues in a language, social, and behavioral issues. So, we have to understand the communication and social challenges experienced by children with autism. (Wetherby and Prizant , 2000). Secondly, there's no biological test for autism. But some symptoms are behavioral and others are biological. Slow development and abnormal brain size, certain genetic indicators and many others are biological symptoms. Inability to understand the language or inability to understand human faces, these are some of behavioral symptoms. (Mary Jo & McCormick , 2006). Thirdly, the scientists thought that "specific genes" are suspected to be causal in autism. Carlson (2011) explains how in the autistic brain the value of white matter containing short range axons was increased and not connected with the brain (Wegiel et. Al., 2010, p. 755). On the other hand, some parents thought that environmental factors coursed their child's autism while other parents feel that children are affected by biological indicators (Wetherby and Prizant , 2000). Briefly, scientists...

...Who Speaks for Islam is a book written by Dr. John L. Esposito and Dalia Mogahed. Both are experts in the Muslim world, and people’s attitude towards them. Chapter five opens with the statement, “Our world isn’t safer; it’s more dangerous.” In the same paragraph, it mentions that a source of this danger is terrorism, and will most likely remain a threat for a while. A key point mentioned in the first paragraph is that in order fight against terrorism is the abilities to put our biases aside and understand both views of the issue. This introduction is followed by a series of myths and realities. One of the myths given is that “They Hate Us Because of Our Freedom”. “They” meaning Muslims, and “Us” meaning the western world. The common belief amongst the West is that Muslims hate our society. As stated in the text, “they hate us...

...The Sunflower is a first person account of a Jew living in a concentration camp during the Holocaust confronted with the question, when such an atrocity has been committed is it possible for a person to forgive? Throughout Simon flashes between the present in the concentration camp, back to his recent past, even further to his time as a youth. Selected to work outside of the camp one day Simon and others were marched through the town. Along the way he noticed a graveyard for Nazi soldiers and above each grave, a sunflower, had been planted. Upon seeing this, he experienced envy for the soldiers who were still connected to “the living world”(Wiesenthal, 1998, p. 14). Simon indicated his desensitization to death, but upon seeing the graves with flowers and knowing when he died, he would be placed in an unmarked grave with no flowers to tie him to this world, he felt bitterness along with a small hope that he “would come across them again; that they were a symbol with a special meaning”(Wiesenthal, 1998, p. 15). Arriving to the work site, Simon is approached by a nurse inquiring if he was Jewish. Acknowledging this, she took him to a room that had been transformed into a sickroom for Karl, a dying SS soldier. Karl’s story began with his youth and Catholic upbringing and he joined the Hitler Youth and SS willingly. He then gave his account of the crime he committed and was so desperately seeking forgiveness for. Simon listened silently to the murder of more Jews and walked...

...by the sound system playing rock band Coldplay and the lively chatter of young customers: "What's up? Keefak?", "Thank you, habibi." The banter is a form of speech that mixes Arabic with English. It is widely used among Jordan's Western-educated elites, drawing ire from language purists and exposing a widening social and economic gap in the small kingdom. Dubbed by some Arabizi - a slang term for Arabic and Inglizi, English in Arabic - it is also a means of expression for many young Jordanians who have been educated abroad and who do not share Jordan's conservative values. "When I came back from university in Canada I realised that everybody was mixing English and Arabic. It is so prevalent. It wasn't like that five years ago," said Dalia Alkury, 25, author of an independent documentary called Arabizi. "It is easier to express yourself in English about topics that are considered taboo, like sex. I can't speak about sex with my friends in Arabic. The words are too heavy and culturally loaded. It all sounds 'haram' (sinful). I feel more free in English. Arabizi is a way to escape taboos," she said: Linguists blame the growing use of English among young Jordanians on American pop culture inundating the Arab world. "Some young people look down on Arabic language. They think it is old and that English represents life and desires," said Haitham Sarhan, a linguist and professor at Jordan University. "If this trend continues Arabic could be in danger. Young people think Arabic...

...Week 1 Assignment – Plea Bargaining Sarah Lee Westwood College – South Bay CRJS121 – Corrections Dalia Fragoso August 19, 2013 Plea Bargaining The right to a trial by jury was considered a central part of the justice system in the early days of the United States. The Seventh Amendment of the Bill of Rights codified it as an essential part of Americans' civil liberties. When criminals were caught and charged, the government went through a trial and verdict. But in the 1800s, a trend toward plea-bargaining began. In Alameda County, from 1880 to 1910, nearly 10 percent of all defendants changed their "not guilty" pleas to "guilty of lesser charges" or pled guilty to reduced charges (Fisher, 2003). A plea bargain is an agreement between a defendant and a prosecutor, in which the defendant agrees to plead guilty or no contest (nolo contendere) in exchange for an agreement by the prosecutor to drop one or more charges, reduce a charge to a less serious offense, or recommend to the judge a specific sentence acceptable to the defense. As criminal courts become ever more crowded, prosecutors and judges alike feel increased pressure to move cases quickly through the system. Criminal trials can take days, weeks, or sometimes months, while guilty pleas can often be arranged in minutes. Also, the outcome of any given trial is usually unpredictable, whereas a plea bargain provides both prosecution and defense with some control over the result. Today, the plea bargain is...

...Law of Contract The nature of contract law: The law relating to contracts is a subject matter of private law. The governing law of contracts is the Contract Act 1872, which is predominantly a private law. The public law, however, comes into play when the parties are at breach of contracts. For example, the courts can award damages/compensation for the breach of contract, which is an act of public law. Contract law is part of law of obligation, which has other sources such as law of torts which govern compensatory remedies for legal injuries arising out of breach of legal, not contractual, duties. An example of tort law is compensation for injury arising from the use of a faulty product, not based on a contract. Contract permeates every day business life. Business managers often need to enter into, and sometimes even draft, contracts with other enterprises or people. Sometimes, contracts give rise to disputes which need to be settled through courts or arbitration. A well-drafted contract however can minimize the rise of disputes, which in many ways depends upon the legal adviser’s or the manager’s knowledge about contract law. The contract law deals also with the laws of agency, partnership, and the sale of goods. Of these issues of contract law, contract law proper and the law of agency re governed by the Contract Act 1872, a British-era enactment. Definition of a contract: According to s. 2 (h) of the CA 1872 an agreement enforceable by law is a contract. Te...
