Repeat child sexual molesters should be subjected to harsh punishment. Increasing the harshness and length of punishment would be a viable way to ensure that the molesters do not repeat their inhumane actions. For instance, the justice system should develop special incarceration chambers to isolate the criminals from the society. The justice system is charged with the protection of citizens by implementing various forms of punishments aimed at forcing criminals to revert from their misdemeanor. Many repeat child sexual molesters in the society indicates a failure in the effectiveness of the current forms of punishments. The justice system should provide sentences that motivate the sexual molesters to reform. Sex molesters should be incarcerated for life to make the community safer for children. Not all repeat child sexual molesters engage in the behavior voluntarily. It is apparent that psychological disorders and drug abuse may have a role to play in the inhumane act. In such cases, the most effective way to eliminate the vice is to help the criminals. For instance, providing psychological health care services would help solve the issue by configuring the mental orientation of the criminals. Incarceration centers should provide guidance and counseling services to repeat child sexual molesters to help the criminals gain a purpose in life. The criminals should be provided with the required help to enhance their self-control after serving their sentences. Recidivism in the sexual molestation of children should be handled from an objective point of view, whereby the authorities take the criminals through various psychological tests and treatments. The criminals should be isolated and provided with constant surveillance when they get back to the community. They should be kept away from children.
Introduction The Bible is one of the most influential books in the history of humanity, and many of its words and notions have a deep meaning. In this paper, we will attempt to analyze Chapter 9 of the Fourth Gospel, search for some repeating and notions that might indicate a theme, and understand their meaning. Main body There are some repeated words in verses 35-41 ( The New Revised Standard Version Bible , John 9.35-41). For instance, the word “to see” is repeated four times; it is related to the adjective “blind.” It seems clear that these words indicate a theme. Their meaning in the given passage is metaphorical. They are also related to the notion of judgment; Jesus says, “I came into this world for judgment so that those who do not see may see, and those who do see may become blind” (John 9.39). The topic of sight is present earlier in the chapter. At the beginning of the chapter, Jesus heals a man who was born blind, opening his eyes and making him able to see. Therefore, it is clear that the theme of sight and blindness extends beyond the physical ability to see. From NT 501, it is known that Jesus uses several metaphors throughout the Gospel of John. In Chapter 9, he says “As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world” (John 9.5). The metaphor of light is related to the ability to see and to the characteristic of being blind. Also, from NT 501 it is known that John uses these metaphors in his Gospel to help the reader understand something about Jesus. Let us interpret these two notions, the ability to see and the state of being blind, as well as the term “judgment.” It is our opinion that the ability to “see” here means not the physical capability to interpret the light falling on the retina, but the act of understanding that Jesus is the Son of God. If that is the case, it is clear that the word “bind” here is also related to the act of recognizing the Son of God. It might be understood that Jesus came to judge people and help those who are spiritually blind to recognize Him as the Son of God. On the other hand, He says, “Those who do see may become blind” (John 9.39), which probably means that those who have a very high and conceited opinion about themselves and their ability to comprehend things are blind to the truth, and so they remain in their darkness. This interpretation is warranted by the words of Jesus, who says: “If you were blind, you would not have sinned. But now that you say, ‘We see,’ y
Thin Client Computing It has been years that thin-client computing is introduced and around. However, in the real sense, the thin client devices were at their pinnacle in 1991. Thin clients are small computers and are networked with each other. Thin client computing uses centralized servers and this is the way in which they interact with each other for all types of transfers and other activities. This type of computing does not include any kind of CD ROM drives, disk drives, and other types of slots for expansion. Most of the data processing tasks are performed over servers. Very few tasks are performed over the thin client like data input from a keyboard, output from the screen, and the communication that takes place between client and server. Thin client computing is very much beneficial for network administrators as it reduces the expense of disk drives, CD ROM, and other expansion slots. It also reduces the overhead associated with all these data storage devices. Thin client system has also proven itself to be the best alternative for the client-server architecture mainly for the reasons that thin-client computing provides high and improved security and also provides a strong and efficient network. Thin client computing is also very much cost-effective in terms of balancing load, centralized security, and data backups. (Thin clients information on global spec, n.d.) There are many types of thin client computing like X windows terminals, web farm clients, and Independent computing architecture (ICA) clients. For applications like Critix mainframe and WinFrame Critix thin client is used. The advantage of using Critix thin client is that the graphical user interface of Critix provides support for UNIX, Windows, JAVA, and Macintosh applications. It also supports browser architectures such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Netscape Navigator. (Thin clients information on global spec, n.d.) Purpose In the last 20 years, the centralized computing model of the mainframe has been shifted to the distributed model of desktop computing. Because these personal desktops are becoming a need for every member working in the organization; whether it is corporate or academic so the expenditure of buying them and managing them everywhere in the organization is becoming unmanageable. Because of this growing problem, there is a great shift to return to the more centralized computing architecture. This type of architecture or computing strategy is also easy to manage rather than managing individual personal computers. Thin client computing structure or architecture is the picture of that shifting. The basic goal of thin client computing is to centralize computing resources as much as possible. Apart from adding the centralized resources it also aims to provide the benefits of upgrades at low cost and easier maintenance. In addition to these entire benefits, thin client computing also wants
Curriculum Curriculum is a comprehensive set of knowledge, skills, and objectives that a student is to gain during the academic year. Learning is traditionally central to curriculum design and is directed by educational objectives. Rather than a list of learning activities, a curriculum is a dynamic field which covers known and emerging learning objectives. To ensure consistency and relevance, curriculum is required to have an established vision, mission, and values , demonstrate reliable philosophical background , and rely on sound learning theory .

Introduction The griffin novels tell us more about the lives of the soldiers and their roles in the various wars, than the events of the actual wars. We get to have a look at the background of the officers and their rise in ranks. Griffin tells us of the education that they obtained, and their performance in class. We observe the duties assigned to these officers in the various wars, and their relationship with each other. The first war that the soldiers engaged in was the civil war in Greece, before joining the war in Korea. Griffin tells us of the relationship that the soldiers have with each other, and the circumstances leading to their bonds. During the wars, some soldiers were caught and held hostage, and rescue attempts were made. At the same time, we are told of the survival instincts in the soldiers that help to keep them and their companions’ alive (Griffin, The Lieutenants: Brotherhood of War, 1986). Involvement of the US in world affairs The united states prior to the Second World War had only used its military forces when threatened. The United States was determined to intervene in the Korean War, which eventually ended in a stalemate. The involvement of the United States in this war provided a clear definition of its might, showing its capability to resist the growth of communism. The United States military was therefore put into use at all times in the maintenance of peace worldwide, as the country conducted its international affairs. The army was useful in supporting diplomats, when faced with rivals who viewed war as a rational and essential component of politics. The involvement of the United States in international affairs started in 1953. The American citizens showed support for their government in fulfilling their duty as a global leader, though it would be an expensive process (Griffin, The Lieutenants: Brotherhood of War, 1986). Introduction of nuclear weapons At the end of the Second World War, Eisenhower was in charge of the administration. His new task was to come up with effective defense strategies that could prepare the country for any kind of threat imposed by the communists. He aimed at reducing the heavy spending in the defense department, without interfering with their commitments to other countries worldwide. The solution was an investment in the capacity to retaliate that took advantage of the air force and nuclear technology. In the 1950s, the armed forces had a different focus in their training, and the magnitude of the tactical bombing services of the air force was raised. The focus on retaliation power was also observed in the navy. They shifted their focus into coming up with submarine-launched nuclear weapons, that could fire onto land, following a set of coordinates (Griffin, The Captains (Brotherhood of War), 1986). The strategy behind m
Introduction The dangers and risks involved in handling flammable and combustible liquids and gases call for extra vigilance in the processes of packaging and transporting. Since harmful effects associated with careless handling are irreversible and long-term in nature, safety precautions must be considered. As such, firms and governments have put standards and measures to ensure safety in the whole process of handling flammable liquids. This paper focuses on the process of storage, facilities required, risks involved, as well as some security measures that have been put in place to reduce the occurrences of disasters. Definitions The flash point, for example, is the temperature where the amount of vapor generated is enough to support combustion. On the other hand, the boiling point is the point where the saturated vapor pressure matches the atmospheric pressure. Flammable liquids are liquids containing more than one percent of a substance whose flash point is below 100 o F. As such, combustible liquids have a flash point at, or above 100 o F ( National Fire Protection Association 2). The following table offers a criterion for determining the class of a particular liquid given their flash point and boiling point. Classes 1a, 1b, and 1c represent the flammable liquids; classes II and IIIa represent combustible liquids; while class IIIb is neither combustible nor flammable. Figure 1: Classes of Liquid Substances A portable tank is a closed container having a carrying capacity over 60 gallons and its design is not intended for use in a fixed status. Additionally, a pressure vessel refers to a storage compartment whose design enables it to operate at pressures above 15 p.s.i.g. Finally, a container refers to a vessel that is airtight; hence, does not allow substances to escape at ordinary temperatures. Type of Storage Substances Storage substances belong to various categories, which determine the means for storage, transportation, as well as safety measures.
Professions in the field of education have always been considered respected and have been the goal of many people. Someone chooses in favor of university teaching or modern training of students online. One of the areas in this sphere is preschool education, which requires quite a lot of effort from an employee and, at the same time, is a respected profession. To become an expert in preschool education, it is not enough to understand the psychology of children and know the program that needs to be taught. Moreover, not everyone will be able to cope with such work since a psychological load is sometimes quite significant. Therefore, a pre-kindergarten teacher is considered to be a special post that has quite a few nuances and provides for several duties. Forecast, Benefits, and Salary of Pre-Kindergarten Teachers The labor market is a mechanism whose data can be traced, and specific conclusions can be drawn depending on the information obtained. When speaking about the prestige and relevance of the profession of a pre-kindergarten teacher, it is possible to say that at the national level, this occupation is encouraged, and jobs can be found almost always. For example, according to statistics in 2016, approximately 479,000 employees were involved in this area, which indicates that many people are interested in such a profession (“Summary report,” 2016). At the state and city level, it can be seen that some people sometimes opt for this type of activity solely for the sake of employment. Moreover, according to the same report, not all educational institutions for little children require teachers to have a special education (“Summary report,” 2016). It means that almost any person who does not have bad habits, physically healthy, and well-bred can take the position of a pre-kindergarten teacher. Perhaps, this prospect is quite favorable from the national employment. However, if a person, for example, has a bachelor’s degree in a relevant sphere, it indicates his or her professional training and qualifications. Therefore, the more
Introduction In business today, some companies enjoy the Economies of Scale while others do not. The difference between the companies that enjoy economies of scale and those that do not is based on the volume of output. Companies that are involved in large scale production are more likely to enjoy economies of scale compared to those that specialize in small scale production. Having understood the basic principle of the economies of scale, it becomes easier to define it. Therefore, Economies of Scale is defined as the cost advantage caused by the volume of large scale production. It is the reduction of cost-per-unit as a result of large scale production. There are two categories of Economies of Scale, external and internal. Internal Economies of Scale include Technical, Financial, Commercial, Managerial and Risk Bearing among other factors. This research will base its discussion on the major sources of internal Economies of Scale. Technical Economies of Scale With the current development in the technological realm, technical prowess is improving on a daily basis. In any organization, it is a general goal to minimize the cost of production in every possible way. This has led to the development of machines and equipment that have reduced the number of workers required for a certain chain of production (Kasman, 2012). This includes a section of production such as packaging, packing, and other technical aspects. Companies dealing with heavy machinery are also experiencing this growth to their advantage. The use of machines in the chain of production has two major advantages that influence the price-per-unit. First, it reduces the cost of production by reducing the number of workers paid to do the job. Secondly, most machines can handle jobs done by ten men ago. This ultimately promotes large scale production which reduces the cost incurred on them (Kasman, 2012). Financial Economies of Scale Every financial institution is very protective of its financial resources and to ensure that their money is safe, due diligence is done (Hughes & Mester, 2013). Before a loan is given to a company, the financial institutions will ensure that the borrower is able to pay the loan at the agreed interest rate and on the stipulated time. With this in mind, it is apparent that big companies are more likely to access loans compared to smaller ones. Companies that are large scale producers have more bargaining power to access loans from financial institutions. In addition to access of loans, they also get better and lower interest rates. On the other hand, small companies have limited access to loans and financial help and even when they get a loan it is normally charged at a very high interest rate. Therefore, large scale companies enjoy financial economies of scale more than the small scale companies. Commercial Economies of Scale The commercial economies of scale are also known as the Marketing Economies of Sca
Introduction The fact that Sister Aloysius, the principal of St. Nicholas church school, expresses uncertainty everywhere in the play raises questions. This concerns what she refers to as “having doubts” in her conversation with Sister James at the last act of the play “Doubt” by John Patrick Shanley. It is hard to understand what she refers to as doubts at this point. She has been involved in a witch-hunt, which sees father Flynn, the priest recently posted at St. Nicholas school, request for reassignment to another parish. Having doubts depict an unsettled mind as the character of Aloysius reveals. Meaning of ‘Having Doubt’ Right from the beginning of the play, Sister Aloysius stands out as a stone-faced woman who digs out evil actions at any cost. However, at St. Nicholas, her quest to implicate father Flynn is futile in a way since he ends up being transferred to another parish, with a promotion therein. This leaves her in doubt whether the church hierarchy is aware of his wrongdoing thus trying to cover him up or he is simply going because she has used a lie to have him leave. She presents every argument with doubts. Sister Aloysius goes ahead to discourage James on the use of compassion to students as a teaching methodology. She expresses her unsettled mind in her suspicions that Father Flynn has been molesting a boy in the eighth grade. It is amazing how her suspicions about him grow from one small gesture: the way the boy recoils in response to the priest’s touch (Vera Para. 6). She assembles small issues such as the length of the priest’s nails and his teaching techniques in the effort to support her allegations of father Flynn’s is sexual involvement with the boy. Having doubts too signify the possibility of lies. Our Understanding of Aloysius and her Pain In the end, when she discloses her doubts to Sister James, she does not go into detail to explain what it is that she doubts though one can logically deduce that it has something to do with the priest and the entire hierarchy of the church. She lies in meeting Father Flynn that she has phoned a nun from his previous parish and that she knows about his sexual involvement with young boys. Father Flynn is reassigned to a new parish with a promotion to become a pastor. Sister Aloysius is inv
