Perfection: realistic or chimerical? Have you ever imagined what a perfect world would entail? How would humans, one of the universe’s most flawed creatures, adapt a demeanor of perfection? With science continuously evolving at a rapid pace, the foreign concept of “perfect humans” is no longer an absurd idea, but rather a realistic expectation. Scientists are declaring genetically modified humans possible through the introduction of “designer babies.” What is a designer baby? A designer baby is…
A way to separate these two ideas was to define them separately and in terms of Daniel Batson’s Eight Concepts of Empathy and how these two ideas have evolved from our developmental stages. Susan A. Miller Ed.D., Ellen Booth Church, and Carla Poole write on the topic of how children develop. Susan A. Miller and Ellen Booth Church specifically discuss concepts of how self-awareness and imagination become developed in a child’s mind, and what a parent should do to nurture their child’s learning…
Introduction of Existential Psychotherapy Existential psychotherapy is a philosophical method of therapy that operates on the belief that inner conflict within a person is due to that individual's confrontation with the givens of existence (Yalom, 1980). According to Yalom, these givens are: the inevitability of death - the fear that death is unescapable can make people feel hopeless in their life isolation - people are ultimately alone, at birth and death. Consequently to fill the void, some…
There are numerous similarities between warfare and elections. Both involved protracted struggles for power, strategizing, fundraising and research. Political campaigns in the U.S. even borrow several terms from warfare, further demonstrating their congruence. Campaigns strategize in “war rooms”, put their fundraised capital in their respective “war chests”, “mobilize” campaign members and confront their opponents in “battleground” states. The results of the 2016 U.S. presidential election…

Jackie Sun History 193B Professor Omnia El Shakry May 23, 2017 The differing experiences of Algeria and Egypt in their process of decolonization offers the opportunity for rich historical analysis, particularly through the lens of Frantz Fanon’s theory of revolutionary decolonization. Fanon’s most important work, The Wretched of the Earth, specifically concerned the case of Algeria and the Algerian war, but that does not preclude examination of other countries. Although Aleria remains unique…
Monad of all these, a thought and a father since he is one” (WCH, p. 57). Here we see the use of the concept of God being a non-physical thought and a father. A farther represents a source of something, which brings us to the Gnostic teaching in congruence with the Platonic concept of divine mediation, whereby the source of God as intellect is spread throughout. We read of this in The Second Treatise of the Great Seth whereby Jesus says: “I produced thought about the Ennoias which came out of…
As a child, I dreamt of becoming a teacher. When we are young we have life goals that appear to be attainable at the time, but we never think of the obstacles and hardships we will face in order to achieve those goals. I am the first in my family to graduate college, so when it was time to apply for colleges I had no familial assistance. My college experience began at Medaille College in the fall of 2010. Medaille is a small, private, predominately white institution (PWI) in Buffalo, NY. In high…
When looking at the data provided, the trends of native-species increase in the restored area and the abundance of exotic species seen in the degraded areas provides an idea of how effective the restoration efforts where at restoring them to the reference site. To begin, the data provided in table 5 gives an idea of the distribution of the number of species found at each site, and how much of a contrast is shown between the restored and degraded areas and how they compare to the reference site.…
