...structure from its coast toward the far seas in an era of interdependent international system. Generally, China is an ancient continental land power with an incomplete oceanic awareness. With the transformation after the Cold War of China’s grand strategy from landward security to seaward security, maritime security interests have gradually become the most essential part of China’s strategic rationale. Undoubtedly, the quest for sea power and sea rights has become Beijing’s main maritime strategic issue. Given China’s escalating maritime politico-economic-military leverage in the Asia-Pacific region, its desire to become a leading sea power embodying global strategic thinking means that it must expand its maritime strategy by developing its navy and preparing for armed confrontation in terms of international relations realism. Conversely, Beijing’s maritime policy leads at the same time towards globalization, which involves multilateralism and strategic coexistence of a more pragmatic kind. This research analyses Chinese maritime strategy in the Asia-Pacific by asking: ‘Whither the Chinese maritime strategy in the ever changing Asia-Pacific security environment since the PRC was established in 1949?’ In general, contemporary China’s national security strategy is closely connected with its maritime strategy and with its comprehensive security plan for its economy, its energy supplies and its...

...many reasons why I want to become a Police Officer and one of them is because I want to help solve crimes. To begin with, in the beginning of the 20th century New Jersey was having a hard time finding sufficient protection for inhabitants who lived in rural areas. There wasn’t much of an effort put into this issue at first and it was overwhelming for NJ because this service all depended on county sheriffs and his constables and more often not this burden was too much for the local sheriffs. Legislation for the creation of the New Jersey State Police came in 1914 but it was not until March 29, 1921 that the State Police Bill was passed, stating that a Statewide Police force was intact. The man who passed the bill was Senator Clarence I. Case who was nicknamed the “Father of the State Police”. NJ would hire Norman Schwarzkopf, Sr. as their first superintendent of the New Jersey State Police who would have the biggest impact on the first State Troopers. Schwarzkopf was a graduate of the military academy West Point and his style of training of the first State Troopers was heavily influenced by his time at West Point. In fact, the motto of the State Police was taken on from West Point Academy’s motto. The State Troopers motto which you can on the uniform says “Honor, Duty, Fidelity” and West Point’s was “Duty, Honor, Country". Also the father of superintendent...

...Justin Ong Professor Y. Cooper-Grigg English 102 29 May 2013 Death Is a Catalyst For Characters to Change This paper is based on Flannery O’Connor’s “A Good Man Is Hard to Find”, a short story. The theme for this research paper will be an analysis of the key characters in the story that are affected and changed by an encounter with death, with a near-death occurrence. The reason for this theme is to bring some significant insights into the literary work in a profound way. The grandmother and the Misfit are chosen to establish the theme in the paper. In “A Good Man Is Hard to Find”, death is a catalyst for characters to change; some characters are changed positively by their experience with death, while other characters are changed negatively. The Misfit shows why he became evil because his expectation of goodness in the society was put to death by the reality of injustice. In a polite tone, the Misfit explains to the grandmother, “I found out the crime don’t matter. You can do one thing or you can do another, kill a man or take a tire off his car“ (O’Connor 194). This opinion comes from the Misfit serving his lengthy time in jail where he experienced harsh prejudices. The Misfit continues to explain to the grandmother calmly, then came a “piercing scream” from the wood background where the Misfit ordered the grandmother’s family to be killed. Suddenly, Misfit’s tone turned nasty, “Does it seem right to you, lady, that one is punished a heap and another ain’t punished at...

...reputation she held. O’Connor’s catholic faith reflected on her characters personalities. Elisabeth Piedmont-Marton explained in the previous quote that O’Connor was, in fact, titled as a religious writer. In her fictions, she adds a specific character that believes in her own beliefs. Like the Grandmother’s faith in the story, compared to O’Connor’s faith. Flannery O’Connor uses many literary devices and literary tools in her writing. In “A Good Man is Hard to Find” she states The children’s mother still had on slacks and still had her head tied up in a green handkerchief, but the grandmother had on a navy blue straw sailor hat with a bunch of white violets on the brim and a navy blue dress with a small white dot in the print. Her collars and cuffs were white organdy trimmed with lace and at her neckline she had pinned a purple spray of cloth violets containing a sachet. In case of an accident, anyone seeing her dead on the highway would know at once she was once a lady.(O’Connor 138) In that quote she mentions the grandmother possibly going through an accident leading to her and the family’s death at the end of the story. The readers do not expect the ending to come. When reading “A Good Man is Hard to Find” for the first time, the previous quote does not exactly give the ending away. Once re-read, the reader could piece together the hints O’Connor hid in her writing. O’Connor added very clear hints in her story, implying the true ending of the story. In the previous quote...

...Judging by Oliver’s expression she looked all right, but it was difficult to tell. The salesclerks saw too many beautiful young women to be impressed, though one told Ginny she envied her her hair - not just that shade of chestnut red but the thickness too. In the changing room she told Ginny that her own hair was “coming out in handfuls” but Ginny told her it didn’t show. It will begin to show one of these days, the salesgirl said. Ginny modeled a green velvet jumpsuit with a brass zipper and oversized buckles, and an Italian knit dress with bunchy sleeves in a zigzag pattern of beige, brown, and cream, and a ruffled organdy “tea dress” in pale orange, and a navy-blue blazer made of Irish linen, with a pleated white linen skirt and a pale blue silk blouse. Assuming she could only have one costume, which seemed to be the case, she would have preferred the jumpsuit, not just because it was the most expensive outfit (the price tag read $475) but because the green velvet reflected in her eyes. Oliver decided on the Irish linen blazer and the skirt and blouse, however, and told the salesclerk to remove the tags and to pack up Ginny’s own clothes, since she intended to wear the new outfit. Strolling uptown, he told her that with her hair down like that, and her bangs combed low on her forehead, she looked like a “convent schoolgirl.” In theory, that was. Tangentially. It was a balmy, windy day in early April. Everyone was out. Ginny kept seeing people she almost knew, Oliver waved hello...

...Journal of Political Studies, Vol. 19, Issue - 2, 2012, 57:69 Strategic Importance of Gwadar Port Hasan Yaser Malik ♣ Abstract The pragmatic facets like geography and history have always imprinted the demographical mosaic and development of a civilisation. The civilisations have always developed along the waters. The waters have been used as trade route since long and the modern trade has further enhanced the need of trade through waters. Pakistan being a gateway to the strategically important 'Strait Of Hurmoz' in the Indian Ocean, blessed with hidden treasures and bordering two Islamic Republics, Afghanistan and Iran, has always been a centre piece for Regional Politics. The emergence of Gwadar Port as a vibrant regional economic hub has caused the regional and extra regional powers to develop strategic and infra structural development with Gwadar Port to reach the energy rich Central Asian Republics (CARs). Iran and Dubai Port World (UAE) have interests to keep Gwadar Port out of competition as it serves as a gateway to Strait of Hurmoz. Pakistan needs to be addressing all the concerns to make Gwadar as a regional energy corridor. Key Words: Strategic, Gwadar, Sea lines of communications, Caspian region, Indian ocean Geo Strategic Importance “If we see this whole region, it is like a funnel. The top of the funnel is this wide area of Central Asia and also China's western region. And this funnel gets narrowed on through Afghanistan and Pakistan and the end of this funnel...

...Rose specifically talked about how his very own mother and his uncle both dropped out of high school and they both found a successful life for themselves. But in Charles Murray’s case he believes that college should be a place where you have to learn job specific training so in the future someone knows what they are getting themselves in to. But one author we haven't talked about is Gerald Graff talks about how some of these young students who are “street smart” and are doing poorly in todays school and not going to college. According to Graff “What doesn't occur to us, though, is that schools and colleges might be at fault for missing opportunity to tap in such street smarts and channel them into good academic work.” (264) What Graff is saying these schools are missing their opportunity to get these kids to go to class and helping these kids be successful instead of having know there failures and they have to live their...

...Chapter One - One After a nice sermon by father Jonathan, the church goers shuffle out into the aisle and proceed to exit through the old wooden double doors. Old lady Lisa and her bubblegum popping granddaughter Holly, sheepishly approach the young pastor. Miss Lisa taps Jonathan on his broad shoulder to catch his attention; “Father Jonathan, that was a beautiful sermon-” “Beautiful” Holly interrupts, whilst clinging to the priest arm. Miss Lisa raps Holly over the head with her navy blue, gold trim paged, limited print, as seen on TV bible. Holly let out a mousy yelp and releases the Shepard's arm. Miss Lisa quickly gets between the two and continues her rudely interrupted conversation, “Yes, beautiful, but I actually came over to inform you about a shady figure going around town knocking on people’s doors. I- We are all aware that you stay here alone, with the lord of course, but if you would like; some of us...

...GALE COMPANY Ryan Keane was a brand manager in the employ of Gale Company, a producer of fast moving consumer goods with annual revenues of approximately €150 million and gross profits of around €30 million. Keane had been given responsibility for managing Gale’s imminent entry into the shoe polish business. This had been a very stable market with limited competitive activity for the last 15 years or so. It was anticipated that Gale’s emergence would ‘shake things up’ appreciably. Shoe polish technologies were of two types, namely liquid and wax. Total sales in the market were around 60 million units annually, with both liquids and waxes retailing at €2 for a 75 ml container (or the equivalent). Liquid polish accounted for 40 million units and wax accounted for 20 million units each year. Over 90 per cent of all polishes were purchased in supermarkets and hypermarkets by householders during their regular shopping trips. The market leader of the liquid segment was ShuShyne, which controlled some 80% of sales. ShuShyne was a product owned by Lind Company. Like other liquid brands, ShuShyne was packaged in a plastic bottle container with a sponge applicator attached at the top to facilitate application. All users had to do was to spread the liquid onto the shoes with the sponge and leave them to dry by themselves in a matter of minutes. Hence, customers bought liquid polishes because they were convenient to use, providing a quick, easy, no-mess cleaning operation...

...Introduction “We, as peace-keepers, represent the United Nations and are present in the country to help it recover from the trauma of a conflict. As a result we must consciously be prepared to accept special constraints in our public and private lives in order to do the work and to pursue the ideals of the United Nations Organization” United Nations DPKO [1] These words illustrate the highest standards of integrity and conduct that need to be maintained and performed by the UN peacekeepers as required by the United Nations Organization. The world’s largest “club” embodies the aspirations of all the people of the world for maintaining peace and security of all its member states. It also at a glance demonstrates the main role or aims that have been made the responsibility of UN peacekeepers in relieving a conflict-torn country, although it relies on their dignity and restraint. Despite the many motivations behind UN peacekeepers (soldiers) joining the UN peace operations, such as compulsory military service, the opportunity for travel or adventure, to pursue a career, adding some skills that can be useful after retiring from service, or simply for better pay; many express their interest to bring peace to people and stability to an area wrecked by conflict.[2] My experience as a former UN peacekeeper in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) from 2004 until 2005 encouraged my intention to analyze what was going...

...ESSAY FOUR When someone asks for a list of the most dangerous dog breeds the first breeds that might come to mind would be the pit-bull, maybe the Rottweiler or Doberman. Those would be incorrect however. Believe it or not, there are more bites by lap dogs like the Shitsu, Yorkie than there are by some incorrectly labeled "aggressive" breeds. In studies the giant schnauzer took first place with the most incidents of bites followed closely by the Akita and Chow. As a general whole however we must remember that it is socialization, breeding and training that sculpt of a dog and its likelihood of incident rather than breed alone. I am dye hard animal lover especially for Pit-bulls and Bullmastiff breed. I cry when I see ASPCA television commercials. Having a three year old little girl and having a love for such big breed like the Mastiff and misunderstood pit-bull choosing the right breed to be around your children is very important. The question really is “What is the best dog for kids?” This is a common question, but there is no solid answer. In theory, almost any dog has the potential to get along great with children. One can speculate about which breeds “might” be best for kids, but you just never know how each individual dog will turn out. There are many factors that affect a dog’s ability to get along well with kids. Here are several things that you will need to keep in mind before you get a family dog. Obedience training is absolutely essential! Make sure someone in...
