In the United States, civil rights have become a hot topic and protests have erupted all over the country for the right to certain things such as the issues in the LGBT community and police brutality. There is one right that is even more basic than these rights and forbidden to many Americans; the basic right to know to where one comes from. I understand this right from a personal level and know what the lack of this information can mean to some. For those affected by the lack of access to…

by a vigilant security team. A system with a common standard and operating system would help to administrators maintain the infrastructure of the database and control the risk by quickly updating the system as a whole, conversely nothing remains secret or secure indefinitely on the internet and a single system offers a much deeper penetration to vital information once…

The Civil War started on April 12, 1861 and ended on April 9, 1865. The war was started when southern states seceded from the union after the election of Abraham Lincoln. There were many movements before the Civil War that were considered significant.

The crisis has shaken the Korean society, leaving many with a deep sense of malaise and insecurity. It all started from the intimate relationship between Park Geun-hye, the Korean president, and Choi Soon-sil. Park Geun-hye met Choi Soon-sil…

Another motivation theory which the candidates emphasized during this debate was the drive-reduction theory. According to this theory, a need which isn’t being fulfilled by an individual will then culminate in a drive; motivation to regain homeostasis will be the outcome of the arousal stemming from this initial drive. For example, every individual needs their viewpoints to be heard; if this does not occur, stress can result. An organism cannot survive in extended periods of stress, or any state…

Someone living across the country could have the same exact views as me, and someone living right next to me could have completely opposite views.
