Sampling techniques

Imagine being chained in a small box, naked, scared, and hungry, but you killed dozens of people in an attack you performed. Would you expect remorse? Some people believe that torture violates rights and is an all in all horrific form of treatment. On the other hand, others think that torture is great to a point when it is used correctly. Although torture can be gruesome and harmful, some people believe it can be extremely beneficial to America regarding acts of terrorism. Throughout the…

and honey would be smothered all of their body. Flies will shortly come around the body and would start to eat them alive because of the sweetness of milk and honey (Pegg 2,8,14,16).

The mature period of Chou Wen-Chung’s compositional output was marked by the gradual formulation of his musical language from I Ching, or the Classic of Changes from the Western Zhou period (1000-750 BCE). The most documented aspect of Chou’s language was his system of pitch organization, which he named variable modes. It took Chou more than three decades to arrive at its final version, and it formed the backbones of his compositional structure. The theoretical foundation of this system is…

Some of the most prevalent issues of current society come from the constant threat of terrorism. Until more recently though, the word terrorism did not command the same respect that it does today. Before the attacks of September 11th, 2001, the Congress’s various intelligence committees barely ever held meetings to discuss the topic (Miller). However, after the attacks, the threat of terrorism appeared in many situations. This threat did not just intimidate the government though. Afraid to…

Like most people, throughout my life, I have always wondered what people think of me. People’s facial expressions, actions towards me, and more, may allow me to gain someone’s perspective of myself, but directly interviewing people gave me a much clearer sense of what people think of me.

Interviewing a…

Humans are not robots; we are not only influenced by logic but also by emotions. So it is important that we explore moral aspects of torture. This is why I went into research on the ethics behind torture. In the book, “The Ethics of Torture”, authors J. Jeremy Wisnewski and R.D Emerick argue that there is no set definition of torture. Because there are so many types of torture whether it is for interrogational purposes or for mere sadistic purposes, one can’t have a set definition for it.…

For the interview group project, I chose to interview a Dental hygienist, Dentist, Dental Assistant and office administrator that works for the Union. When I asked them if they could participant in my interview I informed them that I would like to voice record them and if that would be okay with them. The Dental Assistant was a little hesitant at first because she said she was nervous, I told her I didn’t have to record her if that was the problem. I made sure to ask them if they wanted to have…

So where are they hiding?” You answer almost immediately saying that you’re not a terrorist and have no idea. The men ask again and you give the same answer.…
