...Inquiry Research Paper Every plant is different. There are no two plants that are the same, nor are there two that grow the same way. Some plants grow in hot, dry environments while others grow in cold, damp environments. Some plants grow in the tropical rain forests while others grow in prairies. Even plants that are in the same family can grow in different climates and environments. Plants can be as similar as they are different. Plants need certain factors to be able to thrive in an environment. They need certain levels of water and sunlight. They need a certain type of soil and certain amount of shade. Plants are very picky on how, when and where they grow. The Beavertail Cactus, African Lilly, and Boston fern are three plants that are very different in many ways. They all grow in different regions and require different levels of abiotic factors. They are each unique in their own way and are ever different then the species in their families. The Beavertail Cactus is a part of the cactaceae, cactus family. It has a scientific name of Opuntia basilaris. The cactus is the state cactus of Texas. The lifespan of it is over twenty years. Another name that the Beavertail Cactus is referred to is “Prickly Pear.” It is referred by that name because of the fruit that grows on it. Spanish-American culture influenced a nickname for the fruit, “tuna.” The Beavertail Cactus is flat and pancake like with no leafs. It is a dull green color. The cactus can reach up to seven feet...

...I have conducted this research paper because I want to discover or shall we say explore more about the essence of using paper coal rather than gas stove or wood. I want to learn more about the advantages and disadvantages of using paper coal. I hope that other people may read my research paper and understand its content.I wanted to find out whether paper charcoal could be an alternative for regular charcoal so that fewer trees will be cut down for the purpose of making charcoal. I also hope to prove that paper charcoal is better than charcoal in terms of: a. Speed b. Reliability c. Reusability d. Value for money Statement of problem. This study aims of comparing paper charcoal composed of newspaper against commercial charcoal made of wood. Specifically on the following manner: 1. Which type of charcoal has the best speed? 2. Which type of charcoal is the more trusted in cooking? 3. Can each type of charcoal be used more than once? 4. Which one is worth your money? Significance of my research: 1. Environment- the study aims to prove that paper charcoal is better, thus reducing the number of trees cut down. 2. Community- the study benefits the community because if proven right, people start to buy or make paper charcoal and doing either is cheaper than buying regular charcoal. Many schools had already conducted this research paper but I still choose this because I want to endorse this research paper within my own school. This research is limited to the effectiveness...

...brand associations featuring attributes, benefits, and attitudes toward the “product.” Understanding these brand associations will help determine those elements that constitute a sport tourism event’s image. This study aimed to measure a sport tourism event’s brand image associations from the participants’ perspective. The sport tourism event utilized in this research was an annual bicycling event in the state of Michigan. To explore the brand image associations bicyclists have about sport tourism events, two focus groups were used. The results revealed the image of a sport tourism event consists of mental imageries related to organization, environment, physical activity, socialization, fulfillment and emotions. Implications for both event and destination marketers are discussed. golf, jogging and hiking is booming (de Villier, 2001). For example, sport travel generated $2.4 billion spending in Canada while the total person-trips related to sport travel (over 80 km) was 11,982,000 in 2004 (Canadian Sport Tourism Alliance 2006). Despite the importance of sport tourism events as a marketing vehicle to promote a destination, research on sport tourism events’ image is scarce. Studies have used brand personality scales or adjectives to measure the image of a sporting event and its similarities to sponsor brands (e.g., Ferrand & Pages 1996, Gwinner & Eaton 1999, Musante et al. 1999),...

...Insecurity: A strategy to save our youth from organized crime Introduction Organized crime is criminal organizations are terms which categorise transnational, national, or local groupings of highly centralized enterprises run by criminals, who intend to engage in illegal activity, most commonly for monetary profit Literature Review In his study, Irving Spergel (1990) found out that gangs exist in large, middle sized cities and they are now spreading to suburban and smaller countries around the world. Gangs have turned out to be important social institutions for low income male youths and youth adults from newcomer and residual populations. This can be attributed to the fact that gangs serve social, cultural and economic functions that are no longer adequately performed by the families of these young people, the schools they go to and finally the labor market. Youth gangs are now present in both socialist and free market societies, developing and developed countries, these clearly shows that society as a whole failing terribly in regard to proper upbringing and guidance of the youth. A study by Jeff Ferrell showed that cultural space has a significant impact on youth crime. Cultural space denotes those arenas in which young people construct meaning, perception and identity from e.g. media factories, political machines and legal bureaucracies. The media displays popular culture as a youthful lifestyle that involves drugs, a lot of money, violence and delinquent behavior....

All this apparently is to ensure long service periods and bring out the ‘Organizational Citizen’ within the employee in the organizational context. The present paper is an attempt to examine and investigate the extent of impact that a given Organizational Culture has on Citizenship Behaviors of the employees in an Organization. The study examines the impact of select Culture variables on Organizational Citizenship Behavior across three dominant Organizations representing three sectors of the economy namely, Manufacturing, and Information Technology & Banking.

...The Future of Cloud Computing Melissa Gilchrist INF 103: Introduction to Digital Literacy Brent Ferns March 3, 2014 The Future of Cloud Computing Cloud computing is defined as being a replacement of all computers with “dumb” terminals that have no software or complex operating systems on them (Bowles 2013). This means that applications and the data used are being housed online rather than being put on your computer. As Americans these days we at some point are already using some of the cloud applications. With the future of technology rising in this day and age some wonder what the future actually holds for cloud computing and just how it will play a major role in society. After reading my textbook and the two scholarly articles I chose for my research paper, they all discussed the importance of cloud computing in the future and its advantages. This will have a large impact on technology and the use of computers. One advantage of cloud computing discussed in the course material Introduction to Digital Literacy (Bowles 2013) was the start-up time of the actual cloud. Software companies such as Google are now building operating systems that exist on-line rather than on your computer you use. This means that there would be non complex systems to boot up the computer. You would only have to press the power button and in seconds you will be connected to the internet as long as you have an internet connection. Another advantage would be the fact that computer...

...Capitalism and Patriarchy’s Effect on Battered Women’s Syndrome and Abuse Introduction Domestic violence has existed for centuries and is still prevalent in present day society (Flowers, 1996: 131). Domestic violence generally involves violence towards women and children (Sev’er, 2007: 235).This generally includes physical, sexual, verbal, and emotional violence directed towards a spouse, girlfriend, wife, or partner (DeKeseredy, 2005: 234). One of the debates surrounding domestic violence is the legitimacy of battered women’s syndrome. There are arguments over whether or not battered woman’s syndrome is a justifiable defence or just an excuse (Fumento, 1996: 158). The aim of this paper is to justify the legitimacy of Battered Women’s Syndrome, or BWS for short. I will look at the history of violence to better understand the credibility of BWS as well as why it is discredited. I will analyze how the patriarchal capitalist society we live in affects the views regarding BWS and abuse. The purpose of this section is to understand how the patriarchal capitalist society attempts to protect male status by discrediting the validity of spousal abuse and BWS. Definition and History Battered women’s syndrome results from a pattern of abuse from a partner (Barnett & LaViolette, 1996: 158). Spousal abuse has had a long history, and has grown since the middle ages (Flowers, 1996: 131). Social scientist Friedrich Engels noted that spousal abuse began “with the emergence of the...
