During the time that Dante wrote The Divine Comedy, the Catholic Church was very corrupt led by popes that were more interested in making monetary gains rather than being spiritual leaders. One purpose of The Divine Comedy was to express disgust with the Church of the time and to suggest what the reformed Church should look like. One way Dante demonstrates that he intended to present a picture of the ideal Church is by making his final guide Saint Bernard, a “critic of the institutional church…

GUEST SPEAKER: JOHN LEVY There are two main highlights that stood out for me about John Levy. First, to get to where he is at now took a long time and a lot of work in the “trenches.” His family owned a broadcasting business in the Hamilton area, but that did give him a free ride. I admired the fact that during summers he would work with the crew and although he screwed up many times, it provided him with technical knowledge of how things work. This “bottom-up approach” has served him well ever…

How did the Cold War affect the breakup of Yugoslavia? After the end of the Cold War, Yugoslavia lost its strategic importance it once had when it was a neutral territory lying in between the two blocs. The collapse was caused by the diminishing support from both the United States (US) and the Soviet Union (USSR) who no longer competed to strengthen their influence over Yugoslavia and the ongoing downfall of their economy and socio-political stability. Yugoslavia was created after the First…

In many cases bees have been labeled a nuisance. To some people, especially people who are allergic to bees, these flying insects are no help; yet, in most cases they are essential to the survival of flowering plants or angiosperms.

Besides beekeepers, and other jobs where work relates to bees, these important creatures go unnoticed. Including bees “insect pollinators merit…

This transfer has cause employers to not only look for degrees but nearly require them. The cost of this change has made some sort of Higher Education mandatory for a student to partake in. Although more schooling is not…

The management of prohibited or banned substances (as referenced in WADA, 2015a) in sport is one of the fundamental issues facing sport organizations and institutions. For example, Pipe and Hebert (2008) indicated that the “costs of anti-doping programs are increasingly complex and difficult to manage” (p.2). Because of these challenges sport organizations as institutions have dedicated resources towards developing policies and implementing preventative and controlling measures to ensure that…

Introduction Elephants are considered ones of world 's most magnificent animals in today 's society, but sadly they are facing extinction; mostly because of China 's market forcing to the price of ivory through the roof, to the price of that was once reserved for the one of the most valuable commodity, gold. Unlike most "middle" class citizens around the world, China 's middle class citizens tend to have a strong purchasing power. Due to the booming of China 's middle class, consumer demands are…

to connect students with supports they need, such as social works, anger management coaches and psychologists, to begin to act in more appropriate ways (Ontario Ministry of Education 2012). In my work as a Residence Assistant at the University of Guelph, we used a similar system, to address inappropriate behavior using consequences similar to…

Lewthwaite would need to prove that it was a worthy financial investment. Finally, the committee needed to consider the length of time required to establish a new database because most committee members believed that conclusive information on customer behavior could be drawn only from a minimum of 500,000 members. Further, although they thought that an investment in such a program could be largely beneficial for Cineplex, if implemented poorly, the organization’s image and its ability to…
