To successfully run a project and develop a product, system or service, requires a complex integration of skills from across a wide field of expertise. The expertise required extends beyond the skills necessary to develop the product or service itself. It involves an understanding of the needs of the business and of such things as the associated systems and procedures and job functions that need to be taken into account to ensure a successful project.…
The Genre: You’re familiar with the book and movie reviews that appear in newspapers, magazines, and websites. They are just one kind of evaluative writing, but from them we can identify the key components of the genre. First, there is the object to be evaluated. Often this is a single thing—a music CD, a scholarly study, a corporation—but it can also be an idea or process: the impact of a particular band on rock history, the importance of a new trend in scholarly opinion, or the management practices used by a particular sector of industry. Second, there are the criteria…
The United States was established on July 4, 1776 with the Declaration of Independence. Since the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the United States has gone through many changes and will continue to change for years to come. As I think of the future of this country I dream of how America may be in 2100, it will be extremely different. No one can predict exactly how the nation will change, but there are many differing opinions. The United States will change in many ways such as social equality, social class, racism, gender equality, employment, economy, poverty, culture, role of government, and the role of the United States in the world. Some of these aspects will change more than others but overall I bet you that all these things will change in some way. Some people would say that some of these changes would be vast and radical. Some of these changes may be bad, but others will help the United States flourish as a nation. In the years proceeding to 2100 the United States will grow and develop more and more and our nation will not be the same as it is today.…
In the book Brave New World there is this constant presence of this perfect drug known as soma. Soma is the drug in which the society uses it for depression, stress, etc. Huxley uses this drug in the novel as a form of happiness to the state and as a form of controlling. The scary thing about Huxley's prediction about this perfect drug soma is scary due to the fact of its relevancy in today's society with marijuana. The two drugs are very similar in the way they are used recreationally, how they control the mind and ambitions, and the considered "safety" of the drugs.…
It was the middle of an away sophomore baseball game against DeWitt. My brother, Keegan, was up to bat. The pitch came, he swung and down he went. The baseball came off his bat and drilled him in the left eye. There was only one parent there, one of Keegan’s teammate’s dad. He drove Keegan to the hospital and called my parents. At the time, I was at a softball game working the scoreboard for the varsity West Delaware Hawks team. My mom called to tell me my grandma would pick me up when I was done and that her and my dad were on their way to the Iowa City hospital. My dad was at work at the time and met my mom there. They would explain more later. After they got down there and I got home with my sisters, I called my mom. She gave me an explanation…
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley shows how scientific advances could and have destroyed human values. Huxley wrote Brave New World in 1932, and most of the technologies he examines in the book have, to some extent, turned into realities. He expresses the concern that society has been neglecting human-being distinction in the progression of worshipping technology. In the story there are no mothers or fathers and people are produced on a meeting line where they are classified before birth. They also use a drug called, soma, to control themselves which illustrate the lack of personal freedom. Everyone in the state world do whatever they were taught since they were growing. For example, one of the tasks they give people is sexuality which is shown as an everyday and simply entertaining activity with no emotions or feelings whatsoever. We can see an extreme loss of human values because what makes a human being is the fact that they feel, think, and choose. It is amazing how Huxley wrote this book more than 60 years ago, yet we see resemblance to it in our society today. For example, society uses different kinds of drugs to control moods if they want. Another good example could be how doctors are now producing children with particular qualities based on what their parents want and using donors' genes. A very shocking moment for me in the novel was when Linda, John's mother, was dying and the people in the state world were watching and laughing at it. Today we see a lot of people who don't respect their parents and people who enjoy the suffering of others. What has society gone to? How would you feel to be in a twisted world where we are produced in factories? How would you feel to be in a world where there are no such things as freedom or ethics? I think society is close to get there and it's sad because all our feelings, thoughts, and values make the meaning and beauty of life.…

What I meant by go tell the teacher was go get help but I didn’t say that. He didn’t say anything he just ran off. I should get up he’s probably not going to come back, I thought. To get out you had to crawl through one of the hexagon holes. I could barely even get to my hands and knees but once I did, I could only crawl with one arm. Once I got out I had to use the bubble to help me stand up. I started out walking slowly I had to keep my balance. I was so dizzy, I felt like I was going in circles while was walking. I had just made it on time to go back inside before they closed the…

She told me to follow her to the office. We arrived to the office and she told me to have a seat. I saw her head to her desk and started dialing the phone to call someone. What killed me was because she called my mother and, she told my mother that she was writing expulsion papers. I had never been in trouble before so I was kind of nervous. I was afraid to see what my mom said about it. Long story short I got expelled in sixth grade behind the wrong crowd doing the wrong things. I already knew that wasn’t the path that I wanted to take so I had to change my plan up. I decided to go stay in New York with my cousin for a while. I went to New York and to be honest I enjoyed it.…
Overeating is a problem that affects several people today. Overeating is an eating disorder that causes pain and humiliation to the people who are afflicted by this disease. The general public has come to accept bulimia and anorexia as a condition that cannot be helped by the person who has it. However, overeating is still considered to be a weakness by the general population. This makes it even harder for the person who suffers with this to get the help that they need. My niece, Jennifer Elswick, is one such person. She is a beautiful woman who struggles with this condition on a daily basis.…

It is a beautiful day in Sacramento, California and I am just getting lunch at “Mrs. Castillo’s home for Orphans” while I was eating string cheese and carrots with my best friend Elijah, my other friend Allie ran into the cafeteria and said “Hey! Samara! I have something for you, from Mrs. Castillo! After she was done sprinting, she handed me a note that said “Mrs. Castillo’s office, and I looked at the bottom and I saw something circled… and it said NOW!!! In all capitals. I knew that I did something wrong, I just knew it! I was so nervous I felt like I was going to throw up. As soon as I got up to the door I knocked, and heard her say “Come in my dear.” I walked in the door, and as soon as I got in there she turned around…
