zeal a little further than he perhaps should, and was in fact Jack the Ripper.

control of the owners by making the location seemingly invulnerable to crime. (Schmalleger, 163) This is not a new theory of defense since the idea of property fortification has existed and been well documented throughout history as evident from the castles in Europe to the Great Wall of China which was erected to prevent invasion by nomadic tribes. Newman’s theories however are a far cry from the motes of medieval England or the Walls of an ancient Chinese dynasty. Newman held that making a…

The Tale reveals that the perfectly good woman is powerful, or at least potentially so, insofar as her suffering and submission are fundamentally insubordinate and deeply threatening to men and to the concepts of power and gender identify upon which patriarchal culture is premised (Hansen, 190.) However, the happy ending brings the heroine the dubious reward of permanent union with a man whom the Clerk, embellishing his sources, has characterized as a sadistic tyrant, worst of men and cruelest…

clergy and the nobles often found common cause with one another in both social and political matters and all attempts to impose taxes on them were resisted. The clergy too enjoyed a number of privileges. They were a hereditary caste who owned large castles and forced the masses to treat them with respect.

Ambidexterity in the Martial Arts My thoughts on ambidexterity go back to early childhood, long before I had even known there was such a word to describe being able to use both sides of the body with equal ability. When I was a child entering elementary school in the first grade during the middle 1960’s I had naturally started to learn how to print and write using my left hand. However, much to the dismay of my teacher and my parents, the thought of me writing with my left hand must have been…

This is one way in which energy is transferred between organisms in an ecosystem. The energy is used for a number of life processes. In a food chain only around 10 per cent of the energy is passed on to the next level. The rest of the energy passes out of the food chain in a number of ways: 1. via heat energy 2. is used for life processes (for example movement) 3. uneaten parts that pass to decomposers 4. is excreted and passes to decomposers. As less energy is transferred at each level…
