Immigration and the Economy: A Review of the Literature The question of the relationship between immigration and the economy is incredibly robust and important. How immigration impacts GDP (both national and per capita), real wages, and other various economic factors is of the utmost importance in crafting immigration policy. As immigration is a hot-button topic, especially during this election cycle, it is necessary to separate fact from emotional rhetoric. The following pages will examine…

Tutor Columbia College ECON 293 Abstract This is an analysis of two economic models. The first is the Classical Model which had its origins in the 1770s, a time of great change. The Classical Model was considered one of the first system-wide examinations of capitalistic elements. One prevailing theorist was Jean-Baptiste Say, who had liberal views and argued in favor of competition, free trade, and lifting restraints on business. He is best known for Say’s Law, which maintained that supply…

CORTICAL MAPPING USING MOTOR EVOKED POTENTIALS IN GLIOMA SURGERY INTRODUCTION The aim of glioma surgery is to get maximum resection of a tumor with minimal violation of normal brain tissue. A primary tenet of neurosurgical oncology is that survival can improve with greater tumor resection, but this principle must be tempered by the potential for functional loss after a radical removal. It has always been a challenge to achieve this ?functional? resection especially when eloquent cortex is…

The death sentence as capital punishment is an example of how bio-power and necropolitics can be inextricably linked. Discuss. Bio-power is a concept developed by Michel Foucault. Essentially, bio-power looks at ‘docile bodies’ and how they are used by the state to increase the capital and production of the state. It poses the question; how can the health and well-being of the nation benefit the production of the nation state? Necropolitics builds on Foucault’s idea of bio-power. Bio-power is…

Participants Participants were prospectively recruited from the cohort of consecutive patients referred to the Combined Head and Neck Clinic (CHNC) at a large tertiary hospital in Brisbane between September 2013 and November 2014. For inclusion, all patients had to have at least one parotid gland affected by either primary, metastatic or recurrent disease, and were planned to receive either definitive XRT or surgery with postoperative XRT to a prescription dose of 60Gy or greater.

There is a general saying, “an apple a day keeps the doctor away”; however, that is not necessarily the case and merely a figure of speech. Otherwise, doctors would only be normal human beings with no significance in the world. On the contrary, doctors could literally be described as lifesavers because that is just who they really are…lifesavers. There is not a simple explanation as to why doctors exist or as to why they do what they do because a doctor’s job is so complex that without a…

those who didn’t have any allowed citizen’s disposable income to increase, spending on goods and services to increase, and therefore, a kick start in the economy. Through examination of the growth of the economy, it is possible to conclude that the ARRA worked in stimulating the economy after the Great Recession of 2008. Gross domestic product is one way to see the economy’s recessions and inflations. From 1950 to 2007, the economy was growing at a fairly stead rate, increasing GDP by roughly…

Overall, this year’s Native Son Mock Trial went very well, even if there are a few growth areas for the lawyers and witnesses. Most of the lawyers did a very good job presenting their ideas and examining witnesses. Growth areas for them would be to be more prepared when going up questioning the witnesses, speaking louder, and actually asking relevant questions that would support their side. Additionally, I think the judge should know her responsibilities better and know when to say what. In…

HE accomplished what practically everyone would consider outlandish. In an existence spreading over 69 years, he worked sans preparation India's biggest secretly controlled corporate domain. Dhirajlal Hirachand – also called Dhirubhai – Ambani would regularly say that achievement was his greatest adversary. He was a man who excited outrageous reactions in others. It is possible that you cherished him or you detested him. There was only no chance you could have been not interested in this…

A Statue of Shakespeare Johnson is known for his obsession with biography. In his Rambler No. 60, Johnson even claims “[he] often thought that there has rarely passed a life of which a judicious and faithful narrative would not be useful” (182). Curiously, Shakespeare seems to be one of the few exceptions. In his “Preface to The Plays of William Shakespeare” (referred to as “Preface to Shakespeare" below), Johnson does not show any interest in Shakespeare’s life. Nor did Johnson write a…
