...Howard Bean Professor Lilia Anand HIEU 201-B05 LUO July 29, 2011 Timeline Exercise Union of Upper and Lower Egypt: 2900 B.C. The union of Upper and Lower Egypt was important the development of Western Civilization because it was where the essential and remembered elements of the Egyptian civilization were established and finalized as well as when the pyramids where built that thousands of people visit every year. The union of Upper and Lower Egypt was accomplished when Narmer, or Menes, conquered the Nile Delta and Lower Egypt. Doing this centralized Menes’ rule and began construction of the great pyramids; during the times of the construction of the pyramids. The pyramids were giant tombs for Egypt’s pharaohs who were ,at that time, considered to be both man and god, who was the absolute ruler of the land and decided whether Egypt would flourish or not. In the pyramids “pyramid text” or hieroglyphics, which were an early form of writing using pictures represented words or sounds, was written on the walls of the tombs. Under Menes’ rule the first Egyptian dynasty was formed, and Egyptian cities became the center of religion and government. The union of Lower and Upper Egypt or Old Kingdom is what the later Egyptians looked to for their future decisions believing the ways of the Old Kingdom, or their ancestors, were best.

...1) The socio-cultural impact of the abolitionist movement including: a) The effect of Uncle Tom’s Cabin b) The Kansas-Nebraska Act c) The Compromise of 1850 d) The Underground Railroad 1830s-1870 a) Uncle Tom’s Cabin was an anti-slavery book that was written by Harriet Beecher Stowe. She was the first African American to write such a successful novel. The book really portrays what it was like to be a slave and for that reason it caused people to finally humanize slaves. This book really helped fuel the abolitionist cause by giving hope and raising awareness to the cause. b) The Kansas Nebraska Act was passd on May 30th, 1854. The act wanted to give freedom to those living in the two territories, by letting them deciding whether they would allow slavery or not. Problem was that the Compromise of Missouri had already outlawed slavery so this act caused a lot of tension. c) The compromise of 1850 consisted of five new laws that were passed in September, to deal with the issue of slavery. It was basically them deciding on whether or not they would allow slavery in the new territories that they had obtained from the Mexican-American War. The five bills consisted of: 1. California became a free state. 2. New Mexico and Utah each used popular sovereignty to decide if they would allow slavery or not. 3. Texas gave up lands in what we now know as New Mexico and received $10 million dollars to pay it’s debt to Mexico. 4.The slave trade was abolished in DC. 5. The Fugitive Slave...

...enhance the understanding of a period of history. There is our traditional Gregorian timeline, the prophet timeline, and the pagan timeline. They all tell us about events in a whole different format, so to speak. The Gregorian timeline that we are all familiar with, tell us everything that happened in any given event, in order. Everything is detailed in the way that all events are easily laid out in a line. We use this as we believe the life of the world is laid out with a beginning and end. We believe everything started at one point, it goes through history, and then abruptly ends at the end of the line. This is the common thought of Christians and such throughout history. However, the prophet timeline is a little different. It is somewhat similar to the Gregorian timeline, but not quite. The one key difference between the two is when something big and bad happens like the fall of a kingdom or black age of a people, the prophet timeline shows that. The timeline goes backwards a little bit when something like that happens, and then starts forward again. Now, the Pagan timeline is different than both of these. This timeline goes in a circle. The timeline shows more important events that repeat themselves. The pagan timeline shows everything repeating like reincarnation. Where time spins like the earth, constantly, without beginning or end. It’s a very interesting way of looking at things. All three of these timelines show different philosophies of time. Different...

...Demographics: A Timeline and History Hazel M Morrow South University Online Demographics: A Timeline and History The human population was estimated to 7 billion in 2013. All these humans did not just appear overnight. The population has increased over the past tens to hundreds of thousands of years. Within recent years the growth rate of the human population has accelerated, causing explosions in population size and density all over the world. This has been due to many different factors. Advances in many different areas of science and technology have helped to increase the lifespan and survivability of humans. The area of social science that focuses on population is called demography. Demography is defined as “the study of the characteristics of human populations, such as size, growth, density, distribution, and vital statistics” (demography, n.d.). Demographers divide the growth of the human population into 3 eras. There is the pre-agricultural era, the agricultural era and the industrial era. The pre-agricultural period involves anything before about 10,000 years ago, when humans were still in hunter-gatherer societies. The agricultural period which is from 10,000 to approximately 1000 years ago is characterized by humans settling down because of the creation of tools that could help them produce food. The Industrial period is the explosive period of conquest, travel, and technological advancement that started 1000 year ago through current times. Various factors in each...

...The cycle of supervisory functions includes planning, organizing, staffing, influencing and controlling. Each function includes its own set of tasks or responsibilities. However, the functions are interrelated and are usually continuous. In other words, as a supervisor is controlling one facet of the organization, he or she may be planning another facet or activity. The stages of change model is based on the notion that employees will not change their behavior or actions overnight. Making allowances for employees to work through the various stages, such as consideration and Acceptance, involved planning. As employees are not expected to change behaviors overnight, Planning may include designed a training program that allows employees to be introduced to a concept or activity gradually, with an initial exposure and future practice sessions. Organizing may involve considering how and when to initiate the change. Organizing will consider time lines for employees to move through the various stages, with expected dates for the desired behavior to become a natural part of the work day. However, it may also require some flexibility, built into the time line or into a training program. Staffing may involve consideration for the potential employees, who are able to change or show a willingness to do things differently. The supervisor may consider hiring those who indicate flexibility, over those who are inflexible or biased in their methods. Those who are less flexible may also be...

...The Curse The Curse - Time, point of view, symbolism and figurative language by Nicki Time Looking at the “time” in any kind of literature, is to be viewed at, in two different ways. First there’s the level of events, which describes what happens in the story, as it actually happens. It’s a chronological timeline if you want to say so. Then there’s the level of thoughts, making room for flashbacks, flash forwards in a timeline. In “The Curse” the level of events and level of thoughts follow each other most of the way. So if I put up a timeline, they would be very alike. The timeline for the level of events starts out with our main character Mitchell, is in the bar a late night in august, when a group of young men, probably affected by drugs, enters the bar. After the “last call” a girl enters the bar, asking for some change for the cigarette automat. The men begin to rape this girl, and when Mitchell tries to call the police, he’s being shoved. The next thing that happens is, that the police arrives and start to treat the girl and interrogate Mitchell about what had happened. When the police are gone, Mitchell is in the bar alone with Bob (who’s the manager of the bar). Mitchell gets home, and sits by himself until his wife joins him while he start to tell what had happened. The next day he tells his children about the incident and goes to work, where he talks with Reggie, a customer. To the level of thoughts, Mitchell starts in the bar after the police have left...

Liwag University of Phoenix Nursing is a profession where nurses take care of patients in the hospital and some nurses do it outside the hospital. Anyone can become a nurse as long as the individual completed an educational requirement from a certified nursing school. Long time ago, nursing profession is not considered as a career and often being ignored.

...Clarification is the skill we use to ensure that we have understood the message of the speaker in an interpersonal exchange. When using clarification follow these guidelines to help aid communication and understanding. * Admit if you are unsure about what the speaker means. * Ask for repetition. * State what the speaker has said as you understand it, and check whether this is what they really said. * Ask for specific examples. * Ask if you have got it right and be prepared to be corrected. * Use open, non-directive questions - if appropriate. Open Questions If your role is to assist a speaker to talk about an issue, often the most effective questioning starts with 'when', 'where', 'how' or 'why'. These questions encourage speakers to be open and expand on their thoughts. As a teenager my father would tell me not to come home late. It seemed my idea of late and his idea of late were different because no matter what time I came home-I was late! When I finally asked him what time he expected me home he refused to name an hour. I never met his expectation because he assumed I would know what late meant. Unfortunately, this was typical of his communication style. I solved it by leaving home at an early age. Don’t make leaving the option of choice for your team. Be clear, confirm understanding and make the outcome possible. Anil: Problem: Failure to clarify the desired results assuming the outcome is understood. Management is often working within a...

...The earth is known to be old, but what is the truth of how old is the earth. There is scientific evidence of how old it is, some would say it’s Billions of years and some would say Thousands of years old. There is a lot of factors like rocks layers, plants, animals, sun, moon and many more facts that can predict how many years has the earth been around. But to find the truth if it’s a Billions of years or Thousands of years we would have to compare the two and even look into scientist discovering facts. Or do we go off the what God has created and the Bibles authors? When we read about how or what makes the earth Billions of years? There was a Geologic time scale that was invented in 1800’s. Within this invention, this scale was only to find the geologic ages, with out the information of periods or events. By this we believe the earth was formed about 4 billions years ago. This dates have been proven by analyzing samples of rocks , solar systems, and minerals. Scientist have collaborated and scientifically giving proves of objects, like how old it the oldest rock on earth or the oldest mineral and where did it come from. Material (Oldest earth rock), Age (4.0 billion years), and Methods (radiometric) our how the geologic scale combinations of specific source that tell the what scientist have documented and dated there sources.
