...First, the systems of separations of power and check and balances to maintain accountability to govern between branches. The Madisonian Model was proposed by Madison this model suggested three branches of government,…”the executive, legislative, and judicial power of government were to be separated so that no one branch had enough power to dominate the others” (Schmidt, Shelley, & Bardesl, 2017) This model gave the delegates a sense of peace from living under a monarchy. The braches “…would be independent of the others, but they would have to cooperate to govern” (Schmidt et al., 2017). The model gave each branch a duties and responsibilities to maintain accountability in the nation and within the branches. The separation of powers allows...

...How far is it accurate to say that Black Power movements of 1960s achieved nothing for Black people? In the 1960s many groups such as the Nation of Islam (NOI) and Black Panthers (BP) rose up to support “black power”, largely due to being dissatisfied by Martin Luther King’s adamant belief in peaceful protest. With Jim Crow gone and Vietnam looming many former civil rights protesters no longer had any interest or time to continue with Black Rights. As a result things began to slow down. The Black Power movement did less than perhaps it could have done, unrealistic aims meant in it was difficult to achieve some things. However it did somewhat has success and did a lot to increasing the self-esteem of Black people. One well known Black Power group is The Black Panthers. Black panthers were reasonably successful in helping coloured people living in Ghettos. They organized breakfast and Medical care for Black people living in poor areas. By doing this they were not only helping them to sustain themselves but also attempting to raise their self- esteem. The BP also encouraged black people to “stand up” to white people and defend themselves. The BP’s were dedicated to arming one’s self and defending themselves from racial hatred, although in concept it aims to aid black people in the fight against racism it didn’t have the overall desired effect as the next paragraph will discuss. As a result Bp did have minor successes but they did not come without problems. BP’s violent retaliation...

...(Nuclear Regulatory Commission). They sent a statement saying they were planning to “cease” use of the power plant on or around September 30, 2019 due to “severe economic challenges”. However, I believe that we can stop the closing and keep the cheap and clean power that TMI provides for over eight hundred thousand homes in the central PA area. If we began funding a bailout for TMI, we would be supporting clean energy and supporting alternatives of fossil fuels. In fact, nuclear energy is more efficient than fossil fuels, much more efficient, therefore cheaper. By saying nuclear power is more efficient than fossil fuels, I mean small amounts of nuclear fuel produce much, much more energy than...

...Spradlin PIB Physical Science 16 September 2105 Unleashing the Power of an Atom Most people do not think about the fact that something as minute as an atom could create both mass devastation and enormous benefit to mankind; however, when a person hears the word nuclear, that is exactly what one does. When hearing the term radiation, visions of Hiroshima or Chernobyl come to mind, and the person usually does not stop to consider that something as microscopic as an atom was responsible for such large scale destruction. It is important for people to understand that within the nucleus of an atom resides tremendous capability. It is up to humans to unlock that potential and create something in the best interest of society. While it is understood that the nuclear decay process can wreak havoc on humanity, harnessing the nucleus of radioactive isotopes for the welfare of civilization can be accomplished through nuclear power plants, nuclear medicine, and nuclear preservation of food, we may fully be able to use these nuclei to humanity’s advantage. Nuclear power plants are one way that humans have controlled nature to benefit them. Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions that release nuclear energy to create heat. Steam turbines are then used to make energy from the heat. The elements in the Actinide series of the periodic table are mainly used for nuclear fission reactions. Nuclear fission power plants produce 11% of the world’s electricity, less than what hydro-electric...

...BEST BRAND POWER Energy has become a very important matter of the world after industrial revolution. Major machine-based changes in agriculture, manufacturing, mining and transportation created a huge need of power and thus, world's demand to energy started to increase in an incredibly high speed. Till 21st century, fossil fuels like coal and oil have been used to satisfy that hunger. Today, these substances are still considered as the world's main energy sources. However, fossil fuels are limited and they release a lot of gasses like carbon-dioxide, carbon-monoxide and sulphure which cause green-houses effect: the major reason of global warming. Because of this situation, world is looking for a new source of energy which is clean and efficient, and there are not too many choices. At this point, nuclear power comes up with its all perfect features: Clean and safe. Thus, nuclear power becomes clearly the best option to solve world's worries about global warming. A proportion of environmentalists and authorities does not support the usage of nuclear energy. They strictly argue about its safety and claim that it is really harmful for nature. On the contrary, this assertion is totally untrue. Since, nuclear power is already claimed to be a clean source of energy. To produce energy, atoms are broken down inside controlled reactions and the release fom this process is only massive amount of pure energy. There is no carbon type gas or sulphure emission...

...man. Bacon appears as a moralist in his essays, for he preaches high moral principles and lays down valuable guidelines for human conduct. Some of his essays show him as a true lover and preacher of high ethical codes and conducts. For instance, in “Of Envy”, he puts: “A man that hath no virtue in himself, ever envieth virtue in others.” Then, in his essay “Of Goodness and Goodness of Nature” he says: “But in charity there is no excess; neither can angel or man come in danger by it.” Again, he appears to be a lover of justice in his essay “Of Judicature”: “The principal duty of a judge is to suppress force and fraud.” In spite of all given examples, one cannot deny the fact that Bacon was a “Man of Renaissance”. He had a deep insight in human nature. He knew that man is naturally more prone to evil than good. He was a clear-eyed realist who saw the weakness in human nature and drawbacks of human conduct and also knew that man is not capable of acting according to noble set of ‘ideals’. Though Bacon’s morality was greater than that of average man’s, yet it was not of the highest order. The matter of good and right was important for him but not if it proved too costly in worldly terms. On one hand, he preached high moral principles and on the other hand, he also expressed a mean capacity by compromising upon those morals for the sake of worldly success. For this reason, William Blake, a spiritual poet says about his essays: “Good advice for Satan’s Kingdom.” ...

Stating the situation on the first essay its argument deals with the lifestyle on which we live in. “The argument on which cars will be an uproar to our communities, disrupting sleep, terrifying animals, destroying public and private property, and placing members of our emergency services in life threatening situations”.

...Christopher Cox Patricia Huhn English 121 20 February 2012 Education and Language Education and its effects on the individual is the primary focus of the essays by Richard Rodriguez, Leslie Silko, Firoozeh Dumas, and Gloria Anzaldua. Rodriquez’s “Achievement of Desire” illustrates how education can take the place of one’s cultural tradition in pursuit of knowledge. The loss of language is the focus of Silko’s speech, “Language and Literature from a Pueblo Indian Perspective”. “The F Word” by Firoozeh Dumas shows how profound words in one language can be funny in another, as well as hurtful. In “How to Tame a Wild Tongue” by Gloria Anzaldua, she talks about how the education system tried to remove her culture by taking away her language. The two authors take opposite views on education and how it directly affected their lives. While embracing education by becoming a scholarship boy, Rodriquez shows how his desire for knowledge overcame his families’ desire for cultural tradition. Anzaldua expresses her feelings about how education continually tried to forcefully remove her Spanish heritage. The term “scholarship boy” came from Richard Hoggart’s The Uses of Literacy and means that the student must move between two culturally extreme environments during their progression of education. In Rodriquez’s account of his early educational experiences, he demonstrates Hoggart’s core definition of being a scholarship boy to the tee. While finishing his dissertation...

...Summary of “Why Are Looks the Last Bastion of Discrimination?” Deborah L. Rhode has written several books based on race and gender. She wrote one essay titled “Why Are Looks the Last Bastion of Discrimination”. In this essay Rhode states that workers have been discriminated based on their attractiveness, also individuals seeking employment have also been declined a job or have been given a job based of their looks. In the essay Rhode argues that there should be a law established in the United States that is against looks discrimination. According to Rhode, the United States has made many laws in the past years to protect groups of people that are being discriminated based on sex, religion, race, or disability, yet there is no official law protecting employees that are being discriminated on their looks. Since there is no law that protects a person from this kind of discrimination, it is allowing corporations to discriminate an employment seeker, or a current employee based on his or her appearance. Rhode claims that companies discriminate people on their looks, because attractiveness is “job-related” and they want a person with an attractive appearance to represent their company. Deborah L. Rhode states that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” and the fact that a boss has the power to say who is “attractive” or “unattractive” really gives employees a disadvantage in their job. This limits the person to show how good they can turn out to be in a certain job. Rhode insists...

...Macaulay and Rachel Rafelman thru their essays are trying to eradicate the stereotype, they are both almost speaking about the subject in their essays and the tone in the essays are almost the same, funny and at the same time keeping a serious tone underneath, sexism seems also to be a common point for these two author it seems to be the center of pretty much everything they’re talking about. Stereotype in the both essay as been pointed out and the authors seems to take people to that point where they are convicted enough to stop doing that thing which is stereotype not only that but they uses different other article to point to point that and say what think about it, for example, Ronald Macaulay; in his essay “Sex difference” uses novel and different other article to point the stereotype but not only that he also argues about it just as Rachel Rafelman in her essay “Party Line” uses interviews that she makes or other colleague Article to pointed that out and talk about it or argue about it, both author stick with the same idea that lead us to conclude that they are both talking about the same subject but just in two different environment, for example Rafelman in her essay she is at A Gala and Macaulay is just using Article, novel, journal to talk about the subject . In these essays the authors tone is what we can describe as having two side, funny and serious at the same time the reason why I am saying this is because in the essay the author are using it to keep use entertain...

...I try to draw an analogy with the process of reading application essays. The bad. Ninety percent of the applications I read contain what I call McEssays - usually five-paragraph essays that consist primarily of abstractions and unsupported generalization. They are technically correct in that they are organized and have the correct sentence structure and spelling, but they are boring. Sort of like a Big Mac. I have nothing against Big Macs, but the one I eat in Charlottesville is not going to be fundamentally different from the one I eat in Paris, Peoria or Palm Springs. I am not going to rave about the quality of a particular Big Mac. The same can be said about the generic essay. If an essay starts out: "I have been a member of the band and it has taught me leadership, perseverance and hard work," I can almost recite the rest of the essay without reading it. Each of the three middle paragraphs gives a bit of support to an abstraction, and the final paragraph restates what has already been said. A McEssay is not wrong, but it is not going to be a positive factor in the admission decision. It will not allow a student to stand out. A student who uses vague abstractions poured into a preset form will end up being interpreted as a vague series of abstractions. A student who uses cliché becomes, in effect, a cliché. If we are what we eat, we are also what we write. Not only does a preset form lead to a generic essay, so does a generic approach to what is perceived as the right topic...
