tree of knowledge. Which was in fact, against God’s command. Not only did Eve take a bite out of the apple she also shared it with Adam. Once they both took a bite of this apple they did want God wished them not to do and “lost their innocence (Page 229). They were then banished and no longer were immortal, but later tried to return.The lesson here can be taught that no matter what the temptation do not do something that you will regret later. It may seem like a good idea now but think of the…

Patriotism. Honor. Bravery. Duty. These are words we have come to understand as good, the noble pursuits of those who wish to live up to the universally accepted standards of what exemplifies good character. These are also the battle cries when the time comes for young men and women to be recruited into military establishments. In Joseph Heller’s groundbreaking novel, Catch-22, the soldiers are originally motivated by these ideals, and their superiors use them to enforce their rule. However, as…

avoid those that are unreasonably costly; people evaluate their relationships with others in terms of the outcome” (Lee, 2016). According to Heath & Bryant (2000), “Social exchange theory features a process that is analogous to monetary exchange” (229). Basically, if one person gives someone something, they expect an equal and fair trade in return for the amount given. When I first met Jeremy, the rewards definitely outweighed the costs. He was socially awkward with a tendency to be needy but he…

experience or acknowledge Providence; Equiano refers to Providence when relating a story involving an elderly enslaved man as well as numerous times when discussing the delivery of sailors, both free and enslaved alike, from physical danger (125,175, 229). Perhaps most strikingly, while attending a love-feast with presumably free European Londoners, Equiano remarks…

A tragic hero displays three main traits, a tragic flaw, a family of high class or rank, and is neither superlatively good nor corrupt. A tragic flaw simply means a character weakness, which results in their destruction. In Sophocles play Antigone, Antigone fulfills all three traits conscientiously. Antigone is a princess, because her father Oedipus was the King of Thebes. She is well respected and her unwarranted pride and ambition lead to her own destruction. Antigone’s pride and ambition not…

Some of the procedures required for filing a discrimination lawsuit under the disparate impact and disparate treatment theories include an act of existence of disparity, the act of disparity that was caused by a specific employment device, policy or practice. It requires that the challenged disparate policy was not justified by the business necessity; and the less discrimination measures were available to the employer and would have served its needs well. You can file a claim on the based of…

Sarah's post about how The female characters in Crime and Punishment are the backbones of the other characters, emphasizes the strength of Katerina and Sonia. I agree that the book definitely displays these characters as strong and independant, even more so than some of the male characters. I think that how the male characters percieve these female characters is necessary to get this point across. For example, between 386 and 394, Luzhin blames Sonia for stealing money from him when in reality…

Barber mentions another statistic about the number of school days American children have compared to other countries. He says, “ American children are in school for 180 days a year, as against 240 days or more for children in Europe or Japan,”(Barber 229). Americans spend nearly half the time in school compared to those countries. This being said, does it mean that we’re not getting the same amount of education as them. It goes back to America not truly caring for their education. One big…

the negotiation process, he stated the came up short the first few months and saw an opportunity to put in four bodies to make up his previous short comings which I learned in the assignment this is call minimax (Cahn, D., &. Abigail, R. A, 2014, p. 229). In contrast, I stated my concerns and we enter into the bargaining range, but I clearly had defined a resistance point where I was willing to concede with minimal loss on my part because I felt I was the better recruiter than he was (Cahn, D.,…

What do you imagine about classic western style? Is it a cowboy with extreme action performance and masculinity? Or is it old good days and farming a big land with a horse? Probably, you imagine everything what you see on a classic movie and typical western shows. American history shows Americans’ hope to our future. The best way to learn the foundation of this country is going to historical museum. Buffalo Bill Museum is one of the museums where people see the historical western artifacts and…
