Well, if I was in charge of the project in the city of Ridleyville. I would build a business complex upward to save pace and also build a small size park on the riverfront. However, the reason I choose this decision is because businesses brings other business which will help the economy grow. Also, increase the amount of parkland and open space in the city, especially in the downtown riverfront area. For the city to stay economically sustainable, you need jobs. Also, with the base being close down, that will decrease the job rate in Ridleyville. So the city will have to put something in that area to fill that gap. However, making this decision will help address the growing budget deficit. By building a business complex would lower unemployment rates and increased economic growth reduce the need for government-funded programs such as unemployment insurance and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF).If the city can get the small portion of open space through tax incentives, they can build a park on the open space.…
The case of McGrath v. Shenendehowa Central School District began on May 3rd, 2005 when Theresa McGrath, a senior at Bethlehem High School, suffered a horrific knee injury playing a regular season, varsity lacrosse game at their opponent’s field in the Town of Clifton Park. From Theresa’s perspective, the injury occurred when she tried to perform a “roll dodge” move to avoid a defender. When she planted her left leg to perform the move, she claims that it got stuck in a soft, sand-like material used to patch the field and was the reason why her injury transpired. McGrath filed a complaint saying that Shenendehowa did not maintain a safe field and the use of the soft material created…

In southern Illinois in Collinsville, the largest prehistoric settlement north of Mexico can be found. This is the Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site which is 4,000 acres. How Cahokia began and ended to this day is still considered a mystery. The people of Cahokia built more thank 120 earth mounds as landmarks, tombs, and ceremonial platforms. The largest of these mounds is Monks Mound. It covers more than 14 acres, and it once supported a 5,000-square-foot temple on top. Monks Mound is a flat top dirt pyramid which originally took between 15 and 20 billion pounds of soil to construct. This mound is bigger than and of the three great pyramids in Giza, Egypt. Today, Monks Mound has four distinct terraces. It is believed that the building at the summit was the residence for the leader of Cahokia. At the top of Monks Mound, a ruler could see nearly all of Cahokia. It would also be considered a symbol of authority, the governing ruler towering above all of the rest of the city. The amount of man hours needed to construct such a structure must have been astronomical. It is believed that Monks Mound was constructed in various phases over a two to three hundred period. The Cahokians did not have a written language to accompany their spoken one. By the time European settlers arrived in America, Cahokia was all but deserted. The name for Monks Mound comes from the French monks who settled there in the late 17th and 18th centuries. Without any record keeping, it is hard for some to believe that Cahokia possessed an organized government. Writing is generally seen as a prerequisite to the kind of record keeping needed for an organized government. Cahokia was an agricultural state and it crumbled nearly 700 years ago. One possible reason is malnutrition. Cahokian's diets lacked protein. Cahokia is believed to not have had many domestic animals so it would have been much harder for them to obtain sources of protein. Their main…

Sweedens Swamp is a functioning red maple swamp which provides wildlife habitat for a variety of birds, mammals, and amphibians, and provides flood storage capacity, groundwater discharge and water purification. Pyramid 's proposed shopping mall will result in the destruction of approximately 45 out of 49 acres of this wetland. Thirty two acres would be permanently destroyed. Filling Sweedens Swamp would be the largest authorized wetland loss in Massachusetts in at least 5 years. Pyramid has offered to recreate other wetlands on the site. Doing so would result in the at least temporary destruction of 13 of the remaining 17 acres of wetland habitat. However, the mall proposed by Pyramid would provide many jobs to the area and provide tax revenues, making the area potentially more economically stable. Still wetland losses may not be necessary in order to have a quality regional shopping mall.…

The settlers were upset about the natives and killed the chiefs son! The native Americans retaliated and vanquished all of Roanoke's settlers.

Anxiety disorders are classified as disorders such as panic disorders, agoraphobias, phobias, extreme avoidance of feared objects associated to distress or impairments. B. F. Skinner (1974) talking about this conditions state “It is often said that there is an intrapsychic life of the mind, totally independent of the physical world, in which memories evoke memories, ideas suggest ideas, and so on. Here are few examples of the intrapsychic life of motivation and emotion: Feelings of frustration produce a sense of powerlessness, or impotence, which in turn leads to apathy or to feelings of aggression.” In another words phobias are a product of anxiety in which are also a product of traumatic experiences that happen in many cases when where children. In the past twenty years Applied Behavioral Analysis is the science of human behavior and is best definition was given in 1968 by Baer, Wolf, & Risley: “Applied Behavior Analysis is the process of systematically applying interventions based upon the principles of learning theory to improve socially significant behaviors to a meaningful degree, and to demonstrate that the interventions employed are responsible for the improvement in behavior.…
