...Link vs. Zelda As Link lifts up his sword to absorb power to defeat his enemy, and while Zelda looks for a way to get the most power to blast her enemies into defeat. Zelda and Link are my favorite video game characters. Though they are in the same game, they are not always the same. Zelda is a princess, compared to a boy who lives in a village, they have some things that don't mix. Since they are always working together, they are both are strong, they are working together, they are both strong, very unique, and always work together. Zelda and Link have some similarities, but also some differences. Zelda and Link have some similarities but also some differences. Zelda and Link are way different, in life styles.

...they talk about what they are really thinking(Schizophrenia, 2012) The symptoms of schizophrenia fall into three broad categories: positive symptoms, negative symptoms, and cognitive symptoms. Positive symptoms are psychotic behaviors not seen in healthy people. People with positive symptoms often "lose touch" with reality. These symptoms can come and go. Sometimes they are severe and at other times hardly noticeable, depending on whether the individual is receiving treatment(Carpenter, Huffman 2010). Negative symptoms are associated with disruptions to normal emotions and behaviors. These symptoms are harder to recognize as part of the disorder and can be mistaken for depression or other conditions. People with negative symptoms need help with everyday tasks. They often neglect basic personal hygiene. This may make them seem lazy or unwilling to help themselves, but the problems are symptoms caused by the schizophrenia(Schizophrenia, 2012). Cognitive symptoms are subtle. Like negative symptoms, cognitive symptoms may be difficult to recognize as part of the disorder. Often, they are detected only when...

...Social Psychology James McCormick PSY/400 Robert Hunsaker May 2, 2013 Social Psychology Social psychology like many other fields of psychology has a relatively long history but is still a very young field in the science community. In psychology the social psychology field uses research to determine how individuals view and affect each other. Social psychology is often mistaken for personality psychology can overlap in sociology, and clinical psychology because of the view on personal development and mental well-being of the individual. experimental research, survey research, and correlation research are the three main fields of research in the field of social psychology. Each field addresses the person and the person’s aspect of life situations. Main Ideas of Social Psychology Social psychologists study a set of strategies for answering questions related to attitudes and beliefs, how we construe our world, and conformity and independence; rather than simply an objective compilation of findings. Some of the main ideas that social psychology seeks to address are: 1) the construction of our social reality; 2) social intuition; 3) how social influences, personal attitudes, personality, and biology shape our behavior; and 4) how social psychology’s principles can be applied in everyday life (Myers, 2010). The construction of our social reality rests on the materialistic assumption that an objective world exists quite separate from our subjective interpretation of that...

...Below is the list of questions you should work together to answer in this thread. Feel free to come up with more to answer together if you need them. 1. Can Big Bank’s president rescind the contract? Under what circumstances can a contract be rescinded by either party? What facts have to be alleged and proven? What is the result of a contract that is rescinded? 2. Big Bank’s president also threatens legal action. What potential causes of action could you foresee him bringing in court? Would he be successful? Why or why not? What arguments could Systems Inc. raise in its defense? What are Big Bank’s potential damages? 3. Review the facts provided and the sample contract. What provisions of the contract could you cite to support an argument that it is not in Big Banks best interest to rescind the contract? What facts could you cite to support an argument that Big Bank be responsible for some of these issues and/or not in compliance with the contract? 4. In this situation, amicable resolution of problems is greatly preferred by your company. Would this be true in all contract disputes? In what situations and why would you decide to move to litigation over amicable resolution? 5. There are three types of contract performance: complete, substantial, and material breach. Describe the differences (and similarities) among the three, and explain some of the legal ramifications for one or more of these types of performances. (e.g., what happens if one party performs...

... and educable. - Piaget constructed many experiments in order to explain children's understanding of classification (an example of logical concept). -For instance an examiner would show a child a bunch of nine flowers- seven yellow daisies and two white roses. The examiner makes sure the child knows the words flowers, daisies, and roses. Then the question is asked, "are there more daisies than flowers?" Until about age 7 most say, "more daisies". -Young children cant justify their answers. Some 6 or 7 year olds explain that "because daisies are daisies they cant be flowers." And by age 8 most children say "more flowers than daisies." -Piaget studied transitive inference, the ability to figure out )infer) the unspoken link (transfer) between one fact and another. - For example " John is taller than Jim. Jim is taller than David,. Who is taller, John or David?' Children cant answer the question because they do not have the ability to make implications. They only understand direct statements. -Children cant make such implications until about age 7, when the maturation of the hippo-campus occurs ( a major component of the brains of humans and other mammals. Plays an important role in long-term memory and spatial navigation,) -Another logical concept that is linked to transitive inference was a concept that Piaget called Seriation. - Seriation is imperative for memorizing the alphabet or for understanding the number sequence. -Although logic...

...Wrongful convictions can be described as a miscarriage of justice or an unfair decision in a court of law or as a conviction of a person accused of a crime which, in the result of a subsequent investigation, proves erroneous. Police misconduct refers to ill-appropriated conduct and illegal action taken by police regarding their official duties or any action performed by a law enforcement officer that is unethical, against established employment guidelines, unconstitutional, or criminal in nature. Official misconduct is more commonly caused by law enforcement officials and prosecutors in a number of ways. The knowledge we have about wrongful convictions and official misconduct comes mainly from studies of cases ending in exonerations. According...

...from racial trauma due to intimidating encounters with the police. A study published in the American Journal of Public Health found that “those who reported intrusive police contact experienced increased trauma and anxiety” (Geller, Fagan, Tyler, and Link, 2014). Victims feel sensitive to threats, and avoid situations with the law enforcement. Such events gain mass attention from news networks, and raise questions about the morality of police officers. Whether directly affect or not, people continue to lose their trust in the police force. Although Black Lives Matter blames the favoritism of police by the law, African-Americans also play a role in the increase of police brutality. The abhorrent conditions of low-income black neighborhoods, commonly referred to as the ghettos, have constructed a threatening image of black males to the public. The troubling statistics of black on black crime in the inner cities put police officers on high alert, and creates fear amongst them. Implicit racism, subconscious bias towards a race, significantly plays a role in the killings of civilians by the police. This subconscious bias comes from the threats present in inner cities, and the alarming presence of gangs around these areas. People link the killings of black men to racism; however, police officers claim race has nothing to do with their actions. Neuroscientist, and psychologists have conducted various experiments to test the perception of certain races by white individuals. Their findings...

...by simply placing their hands on the diseased, while others cannot accept the fact that human beings evolved from lower animals by a process of Natural Selection over billions of years. Locally, it is a no-brainer that the lack of science teaching at a primary level has had a negative lasting effect on people, and this can be seen in newspaper, radio and TV station editors, opinionists, politicians and talk-show hosts, all of which wield the power of mass media and can influence public opinion and what people think. Unfortunately, many of them are educating the masses in the concept of GIGO - Garbage In Garbage Out. GIGO is an interesting concept that refers to the fact that people are continously bombarded by pseudo-scientific and mistaken ideas, and eventually start believing their veracity and transmit them to others. These people are not necessarily uneducated individuals, but usually pick the information online and reinforce false opinions by choosing websites that agree with their views. For example, they follow a TV programme where some beautician with a dubious diploma is expounding upon the healing virtues of homeopathy and explaining how “like cures like” and some mumbo-jumbo about the bodies mysterious healing energies, and presto, the audience start searching online and find sites full of anecdotes on how homoeopathy is a gentle form of alternative medicine that heals without any side-effects....

...2/4/2013 Exam Question #1 Dan’s Justification a)Dan’s Pursuit of Al Use of non-deadly force to reclaim one’s property Use of non-deadly force to reclaim one’s property is allowed under the Model Penal Code if the following three conditions are met 1)the third party’s inference is unlawful 2)the intrusion was on property in defendant’s possession or property for which he served as a bailee and 3)use of non-deadly force is immediately necessary. Under common law non-deadly force may be used to protect personal property in one’s lawful possession if this force appears reasonable to prevent or terminate an immediate unlawful intrusion with that property. In this case, Dan would justify his pursuit of Al as his rightful action to reclaim his property, the handgun and ammunition. Dan would also would testify that Al’s tender of counterfeit moneys amounted to an attempt at larceny by trick. The registration papers had not been completed and Dan was still in possession of the property. Al’s attempt to leave with the property justified Dan’s pursuit of Al. The requirement to desist The Model Penal Code requires that for necessary use of non-deadly force to recapture property, the defending party must first request that the defendant desist his trespassory activity unless the defender believes this request would be useless, or put his person or property in greater danger. In this case, Dan did follow the requirement of making a request to desist, telling Al, “If you don’t...

...Though, both sides bring forth compelling arguments and facts, I side with Joshua Buckholtz, mostly. Nature versus nurture is a massive debate and I lean towards the nurture side. Not only because of facts but due to personal experience. Now, as I said, I “mostly” agree with Buckholtz. I cannot discredit Beaver and Schwartz’s claims and facts. Although, I do have some problems with some of their claims and Buckholtz supports my thinking, along with Sue Titus Reid’s dualistic fallacy criticism. While I do believe that there is a biological/genetic component to human behavior, I feel it is limited on how much it affects an individual. Beaver and Schwartz claim that theories originally presented did not explain crime well enough and focused exclusively...

...violent acts. Tragedies such as: Columbine, Red Lake Massacre, Virginia Tech will never be forgotten and has put a huge stain on America’s history; however, all of which report the students were influenced by video games and sought to portray them in reality. In this article written by Joshua Gardner, a reporter for ABC news has conveniently used video games as a scapegoat for violent actions caused by students at school and creating false dilemmas that does not exist. Video games are not the cause of violent behavior because there is no definitive proof. “The Supreme Court deemed California’s law unconstitutional in 2011. Writing for the court, Justice Antonin Scalia describe the bill as ‘unprecedented and mistaken’. Justice Scalia also wrote that casual links between these games’ content and harm to young people have not been proven and went on to place the responsibility to filter what children are exposed to with parents.” (1). Reason being: there are many other important factors to consider being the source of a young adult’s violent behaviors. For example, the environment in which the individual grew up in plays a much more prevalent role in a child’s personality. Abusive parents, bullies at school, and shrewd authoritative figures will the source of a child’s behavior. Children will mimic the actions of these individuals and learn that violence is acceptable because interactions between their immediate surroundings influence their behaviors much more tremendously...

...upcoming season. Their star point guard Derrick Rose has suffered a facial fracture. Now we might ask ourselves how this could be seen to relate to ecology. First and foremost “The N.B.A. is a superstar-driven league” (1 Mather). With this said I can relate it to ecology in the sense that this sport like any other is survival of the fittest (not in regards to reproduction of course, but to which team and its players can stay the healthiest and thrive to move on). Secondly, the teams always with more talent and superstars always have gone the furthest and have always succeeded while the weaker teams have gone unnoticed and eventually die off. Exactly how nature works as well the stronger live and the weaker die off. Now Derrick Rose is that key link for the Bulls to cross that line between strong and weak. Every time he has managed to stay healthy he has taken the Bulls to the playoffs, or if you wanted put it in ecological contexts they have lived for another generation. Unfortunately the past three years of Derrick Roses career have been injury plagued and the sports world asks itself is it time that the Bulls step down as one of the Elite teams in the NBA. It is clear that with Rose out others will need to step up and be a game changer, but...

...TOPIC 1: Do you really know anything? With reference to Descartes’ first meditation justify your answer in full and respond to possible objections. A belief is any opinion or any view whether you are committed to the view or not. Thus, if you know something, you are entitled to believe in it. The subjective nature of knowledge partly is based on the idea that beliefs are things that individuals have and those beliefs are either justified or not justified (Pardi, 2011). However, Descartes notices that over the course of his life, he has from time to time accepted false beliefs and the falsity of these beliefs have influenced other beliefs. Thus, Descartes aim in his first meditation is to find out if what we know is truly correct (Blackburn, 1999:15). Once we have figured out what beliefs are beyond any possible doubt, it is suggested that we can use reason to deduce the rest of what is knowable (Pardi, 2011). There are three conditions when one can say they know something is true (Pardi, 2011). Firstly, you believe in something, secondly, it is in fact true and lastly you are justified in believing a statement is true. Of course it is possible that there are no complete unshakeable truths, it is also possible that we might discover that our prejudices cannot be detached or that the beliefs we think are our grounds for all our other beliefs are not really ultimate at all. For this reason, it is why rationalist say that knowledge comes from within, the only beliefs we can...
