and bring attention to issues. Individuals use the positive knowledge from intergroup to change the negative aspects of the in-group. For instance Andrew was from a violent township with a majority of youth not dreaming much. He used his university experience and knowledge to be a role model to the young ones in the township. He did this collectively and individually. It took him as an individual to decide to maintain the connection to his home community, but reaching people through the NGO was…

The Articles of Confederation was America’s first national government and it was created to establish an alliance between the thirteen states to work together. After gaining independence from Britain, America needed to come up with a strong government to lead the country. Congress wanted to change and not have a government like the Parliament which was viewed by the colonists as, “oppressive” and “brutal”. According to Document 1, article 2 states, “Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom,…

Majestic Bethlehem Center, which already has large distribution centers. FedEx’s plans depicts a 981,000-square-foot facility and enough parking for 2,800 employees. The plans filed in Bethlehem should not be view as FedEx is deserting the Allen Township place; FedEx is seeking an alternative so the project will move forward by spring (Radzievich & Assad,…

every move that they make. The media portrays the police as bias and a power driven force that is untrustworthy and lack the ability to keep the streets safe. Due to the research and the interview I conducted with Sargent Terry Walters of the Logan Township PA Police Department, I have evidence that proves that the police are not as subjectively bias as the media portrays them to be. Police have a protocol for how much force should be used for specific situations. The article on the police use…

now flooded her mind as she thinks about people she hadn’t thought about in years. Wondering where they went and what happened to them, she knew that a lot of them were buried in the cemetery in the township graveyard. Some of the people made her cry some made her laugh, but they were her Amish township people that helped make her who she was. Her very way of life and beliefs in that life were a direct result of their lives and her growing up with…

I think the neighborhood approach is practical depending on where one lives and the relationships an elderly person has with the neighbors around them. The closer someone is, relationships-wise, to their neighbor, the more inclined the neighbor will be on checking on the elderly neighbor. For example, when my grandma was still alive, her next-door neighbors, who she knew for many years, looked out for her and would do kind gestures such as rotate which neighbor mowed her lawn as they knew she…

The greatest human impact on the water quality of Barnegat Bay is irrigation. Irrigation occurs when water is added to land or crops in order to aid in growth. In the northern parts of the bay, where “peak nitrogen levels have been recorded”, many homeowners continually use lawn fertilizers which carry nutrients in the runoff produced (Seitzinger 6). In addition to being a problem in the northern Barnegat Bay area, in the past few years, “the pollution problem is now being magnified by increased…

entrepreneurial endeavor and accomplishment inside the informal economy of South African townships. The expression "spaza" is taken from the isiZulu dialect, signifying "shrouded" (Bear et al., 2005), and rose in the politically-sanctioned racial segregation time when business open doors for black business visionaries were confined. These micro-convenience stores traded in a clandestine manner to provide township residents with local access to everyday goods otherwise only available at distant…

CULTURAL RITUALS DURING CHRISTMAS Many people think Christmas is only celebrated on the 25th of December, but that’s not entirely true (Cooper, 2016). It depends in which country you in and your Christian traditions. In South Africa we celebrate Christmas on the 25th of December, with Christmas Eve the night before and Boxing Day the day after. Although Christmas celebrations start way before that for some Christians who believe in Orthodox and Eastern Catholic Churches. For these Christians,…

The Ministry of Health is responsible for things such as designing national health law, budget allocation and planning within China’s highly decentralized health care system. Currently 95% of the population are insured and 35.5% of health expenditures are paid out-of-pocket. China has achieved universal health coverage that involves a wide scope of health services (Eggleston, 2012). To achieve this China uses extensive insurance programs and a three-tier hospital delivery system. China has…
