Open theism

In the master bedroom, “There stood, facing the open window, a comfortable, roomy armchair. Into this she sank, pressed down by a physical exhaustion that haunted her body and seemed to reach into her soul (115).” The narrator expresses Mrs. Mallard’s chronic repression pointing out that she “sank, pressed…

Gun control has been an issue that is discussed in schools, political debates and is always a basis for anyone running for the presidential office. Should teachers and faculty be allowed to carry firearms in schools to protect the students? There are always two sides to the issue. Digging deeper on both sides of the issue and to find good clear reasoning is important in order to decide what is right, not just to agree with a political parties opinion. I plan on setting my own views aside on this…

Protecting the American Right Americans should not have to fight for their right to bear arms. This right to bear arms was given to us by our forefathers, of whom, many died fighting for those rights. The entitlement is so valuable to the American people that the law was placed second on the bill of rights. In today’s world, many politicians are trying with all of their power to make personal gun ownership illegal in the United States. In many incidences, this is done in response to the murders,…

The idea of sports has been around since humankind. Ancient Greece introduced the Olympic Games in 776 BC which still to this very day encourages athletes to train for early on in their lives (“’History’”). Cristiano Ronaldo for example was only ten when he was deemed “A phenomenon—a kid who ate, slept and drank the game” (Christiano). George Jr, or better known as “Babe Ruth”, was only seven when he was introduced into baseball (Babe). How do children grow up to be talented in a sport? The…

competitive advantage.

In that vein, open innovation and crowdsourcing are trending up and becoming a manifestation of a larger bandwagon…

On “The Marrow of Tradition” As “The Marrow of Tradition” hurtles towards its conclusion, its author, Charles Chesnutt, has two of its main characters – the half-sisters Mrs. Carteret and Mrs. Miller – stand “face to face” for the very first time. Both characters are devastated, inconsolable; indeed, the very air between the pair seems heavy, suffused as it is with a heady amalgam of private and public tragedy. It seems almost fitting, after what has just happened (in the narrative), that the…

Shootings and gun violence have become more rampant over the years, especially in college. In the United States shooting on college campuses is becoming more common. Every 15 minutes a college shooting occur. For the safety of the campus’s students and faculty, guns should be allowed on college campuses. Most people feel safe when there is a gun near or around. People tend to feel a sense of security when they know they have something to protect them. In the article, Matthew Miller states,…

the “structure, sequence, and organization” of thirty-seven Java APIs without permission in 2010. Google’s need for Sun’s APIs stemmed from their development of Android in 2005. They contacted Sun with the hopes of getting approval to use, adapt and open source Java, which was unsuccessful. According to court documents from Oracle America, Inc. v. Google, Inc., “The point of contention between the parties was Google 's refusal to make the implementation of its programs compatible with the Java…

It’s all about the material inside, that we wouldn’t know what that material is unless we start to explore that book. Same thing with humans, we tend to judge off their appearance, backgrounds, or households. But we have to learn to keep our minds open, and explore behind the “cover.” I went through a rough experience that made…
