Introduction In evaluating a possible and prospective place for a new plant one inadvertently has to keep mind the most influential and relevant factors that facilitate and motivate the growth and sustenance of the said plant. An interrogation of Germany from this perspective states a viable case for the argument that it is fit to accommodate a new plant. These factors include but not limited to public opinion and attitude, government policy and production factors. Argument Public opinion and attitude The German public appetite towards religion was initially very high especially during the war period of the 19 th century. It was mainly protestant following the accretion to power of protestant affiliate leaders such as Ottovon Bismarck. In fact prior to the Second World War up to two thirds of Germany’s population was majorly with the minority remainder being Roman Catholic. However come 1980, the affinity to religion received a great blow with most followers opting out to avoid the church tax. Today the attitude towards religion is not as great as it was during the war period but it continues to polarize the German society. The influence is small and easy to regulate due to the dilution and division. Down from historical antecedent Germany never had an appetite for the American concepts and lifestyles. This was motivated by the economic social and political gaps that came about during the war and post war cold war periods. This has over the years affected relations between these two cultures hindering commerce and economic ties between these two states. This has changed though not entirely due to the changing concepts and ideas that leave enough room to facilitate smooth relations alongside the differences. It has been blended into a competitive relation that has worked for business and trade (Dewey 69) Germany’s cultural base has been mounted on language, literature and architecture alongside other heritage artifacts that have solidified the publics’ loyalty to tradition and way of life. It is rich with the most ancient of traditions and remains an icon in history that dr
Lee is an established editor who works for The Weekly Standard. His writing majors in politics, and his broad knowledge in political systems around the world has enabled him to collaborate with other like-minded journalists in forming The Middle East Quarterly. The publication focuses on the political occurrences in the Middle East. In this article, Smith consults political analysts from Washington. When the article was being drafted, the health condition of Egypt’s president, Husni Mubarak had deteriorated, and it was evident that he would not make it. Mubarak has been in power for more than two decades, and thus it is anticipated that he will appoint his second son Gamal to rule the country after he passes on. However, this anticipation is far from truth because the supposed heir is not showing any interest in the throne. Omar Suleiman is perceived to be another potential candidate for this position because of his exposure and experience while working with state security agencies. However, he has no links to any political party, and hence may opt to support Gamal’s campaigns. Similarly, Mohamed Elbaradei poses a threat to the other two candidates, but the fact that he has not aligned himself with any political party is a reliever to the hopefuls. He opts to wait until the situation is favorable because he is certain that the elections will not be fair. His political ambition does not go down well with Washington because he is viewed as an ally of Iran. Egypt needs a president who will help in safeguarding its interests by restoring its sovereignty in the Arab world. The throne will not be easy to manage because there are challenges, including the factions such as Muslim Brotherhood. The analysts are not sure whether the forthcoming leader will follow the legacy left by Husni Mubarak. According to the author, Egypt is governed by a hereditary system. Since Mubarak is on the verge of passing on, his second son Gamal, is the ideal heir to the throne. Surprisingly, Mubarak has not made any statement regarding his succession as expected. In fact, he is distancing himself from succession politics. However, his actions contradict his statements, especially when he attends public functions alongside Gamal. The international community prefers Gamal due to his exposure with the Western countries. From their perspective, Gamal would strengthen the bondage between US and Egypt. However, there are critics who doubt whether Gamal has what it takes to assume the position. The critics argue that Gamal is only related with the military in business ventures (Smith 4). Mubarak has not selected his predecessor or even a vice president who will act while elections are underway. It seems he wants to break the hereditary l
Crime is any action that contravenes the governing code set by a social, political, or economic authority. In other words, crime is the natural tendency of human beings to deviate from the regulations of any governing institution in pursuit of survival, gain, or advantage (Lombroso et al, 2006). Any individual that is known to have committed a crime is known as a criminal. In this essence, crime can be of many forms. The governing code is then the law of the area of jurisdiction held by the said authority. In the case of a geographical area, the law covers all aspects of life and is supposed to be obeyed by all inhabitants of the territory who are subjects to the law. The criminal justice system is the institution or the criterion that is used to keep all people that are subject to the law in check. In addition, the criminal justice system provides a mechanism through which the deviant subjects are corrected or punished. A fully functional justice system is designed to establish, evaluate, and then met out the appropriate action to correct, punish or restrain the subject in question. The modern criminal justice system is defined in criminal law. This institution is primarily set up to ensure civil order in society. The actions of the criminal justice system in response to a crime committed are governed by the law. Most modern governments have a similar criminal justice system with slight variation due to social norms, religion, or differences in constitutional law. One of the basic components of a criminal justice system is a body that establishes whether a subject has committed a crime. This body may be a policing institution, a military institution, or a civilian body consisting of members of a certain occupational discipline. Furthermore, the detection and investigation of crime is the responsibility of this body. Once the evidence of the crime having been committed has been gathered, the investigators have to apprehend the suspected criminal. This component of the criminal justice administration is often known as law enforcement. Administration of justice involves another institution that determines if the law enforcement agency has gathered enough evidence to establish that the apprehended subject committed the crime under investigation (Schmalleger, 2001). Law enforcement has to present the suspected criminal and the evidence before the decisio
Carl Friedrich Gauss was also known as Johann Friedrich Carl Gauss, the greatest mathematician in history with contributions in the field of geometry, statistics, number theory, astronomy, potential theory, geophysics, astronomy, and many others. Carl Friedrich Gauss was born in Burnwick, Germany on April 30, 1777. Being the only child of poor parents, he did not go to school from a young age. However, Gauss could do complex calculations in his head. He held this capability even before he learned how to talk. He taught himself to read. Gauss’ father did not support his education as he did not think that it could be used to help feed the family. One of Gauss’ teachers convinced his father to let him stay back after class to study. From the time that he could calculate he started with arithmetical experimentation and solved his first complex problem at the age of eight. According to Jeremy John, Gauss’ teachers and parents recommended him to the Duke of Burnswick in 1791, who financially helped him to continue his education locally and further at the University of Göttingen from 1795 to 1798 (Gray par.3). Before this, he attended the Collegium Carolinum (now Braunschweig University of Technology ) from 1792 to 1795. In 1798, Gauss came back to Burnswick but worked and lived alone. During the first year of his return to Burnswick, he worked on and developed the four proofs that are now used in the fundamental theorem of algebra. In 1799, Gauss defended his doctorate, under the supervision and mentorship of J.F. Pfaff, from the University of Helmstedt (“Carl Friedrich Gauss Biography – German Mathematician”). During his school and college years, Gauss was way ahead of his colleagues and classmates when it came to studying elementary geometry, algebra, and analysis. He was also very comfortable with number theories and arithmetic. Gauss wanted to conduct empirical investigation and experimentation with arithmetic. According to the Encyclopaedia of World Biography, in 1792 Gauss discovered that a regular polygon with 17 sides can be constructed without any complex tools, only with the help of a ruler and compass alone (“Karl Friedrich Gauss Biography”.). The result was not as significant as the way that led to the result. For example, an analysis of the factorization of polynomial equations was conducted. Riami in his presentation shared that Gauss’ Ph.D. was based on the fundamental theorem of algebra which Gauss proved in 1797 (Raimi par. 4). According to Riami in his presentation, when deciding on what to become, Gauss had wanted to become a philologist, but he instead became a mathematician (Raimi par. 7). The discovery which led him to become a mathematician was the construction of 17 sides of a regular polygon mentioned above. The first paper that was ever published by Gauss was written on algebraic number theory, the Disquisitiones Arithmeticae, in 1801. His second major publication was written when he rediscovered the Ceres asteroid. Many astronomers were working on rediscovering the as
Introduction In the world where information acquires new frontiers to be exposed to people one should bear in mind that the influence of printed ads is high. This essay illustrates the analysis of two different ads concerned with merely similar kind of product. In this respect two brands, Coca-Cola and Pepsi, are provided for detailed analysis. The thing is that it is vital to designate where the points on attraction on the part of viewers lie. It is possible to delineate the marketing tricks corresponding uniqueness of each ad on the example of two ones. The ads were found via engine searching in Google. There was a great variety of different ads, but the bellow mentioned ones seem to be original and fun. Coca-Cola and Pepsi are ostensive competitors in the market of beverages in the United States as well as overseas. These giants need to make more efforts in their marketing strategies, so that to shape all categories of population. Two ads are full of ideas on the significance of the product that are illustrated by means of sense of humor and associations. Main discussion First of all, it is high time one looked at the advertisement of the Coca-Cola Company. It is fun at a glance. The main idea is that this beverage cools a person off. Thus, a man cannot realize where is his bottle when he wants to drink a bit. One should pay attention to the fact that the situation occurs at the seashore, somewhere in Florida or so. An observer also takes a look at ideal sunburn of a man. On the other hand, a penguin seems very fun. He (penguin) can be said as the smartest in this situation, for he has concealed himself under the shade of the chaise longue. He is up to chill out due to Coca-Cola at hand. He wants to make this pleasure long, because he uses a straw. One may single out an expression of delight and satisfaction on the face of a penguin and amazement along with despair on the face of a man. To lay more emphasis on the idea of this ad, one should provide parallels with associations that are obvious in it. First of all, Coca-cola positions itself, as a beverage for successful people. Second, it is a way to have fun and to know how to get pleasure. Third, it describes an enormous eagerness of a penguin to taste the beverage getting through thousands of miles separating the place described from Antarctic. Sense of humor is used here to attract all categories of people. The second ad is related to Pepsi-Cola. The whole outlook of this ad is also very ridiculous. Children especially might like it. The concept of the ad provides a scope of ideas tracking the importance of Pepsi at the moment. A snowman is the main character in the ad. He tries his best to reach out, perhaps, the last tin
Introduction Artists are widely known for uniquely perceiving the world, which is often unavailable to other people living in their times, but highly appreciated as a valuable piece of knowledge later. Oskar Schlemmer, a German painter associated with the Bauhaus school, sees the physical body in the space in a specific way, connecting it with the surrounding (Blumberg & Ferry, 2021). This essay will examine Oskar’s creativity to reveal how he perceives the human body in relation to the design of the environment to learn more about the psychological aspect. The Relationship Between the Human Body and the Environment Primary, Oskar was fascinated with the synthesis of art and architecture, which had significantly influenced the way he was seeing and created his paintings. According to Sotheby’s (2019), “he focused on positioning figures within a pictorial space, which he formed by opposing horizontal, vertical and diagonal planes (para. 3). It implies that the emphasis of his masterpieces is the objects, often human bodies, in space. Taking into consideration that previously, Oskar’s paining were strictly flat ones, introducing the third dimension shows the ongoing desire to investigate how figures are related to the environment. The instance of his work that can provide an insight into the discussed conception is “ Tischgesellschaft ” or “ Group at Table ,” painted in 1923 (Sotheby’s, 2019). It portrays a girl sitting at the table with two other figures shown from different directions. There is also a standing figure, which might serve as an indicator of the depth of the painting, along with other objects. Therefore, considering the mentioned nuances, a new way of viewing and painting can indicate the changes in the manner of thinking of the artist, along with the desire for experiments. The most famous creation of Oskar Schlemmer, “ Das Triadische Ballett ” or “ The Triadic Ballet ,” is also a significant representation of how the artist sees the relationship between the human body in space and the surrounding environment. Oskar believed that the theater is a sacred place, and according to Shafaieh (2019), “He believed that walking, standing, and sitting are very serious” as well as seeing the figure on stage (para. 12). Simultaneously, the “ Stick Dance ,” which is the part of the ballet, is the extension of the golden mean into space because our anatomical form is based on those proportions (Shafaieh, 2019, para. 12). It implies that the author was psychologically obsessed with meeting the metaphysical needs of the spectator to show them the direct dependency between the environment they are into and their physical shell. Oskar’s intervention through his conception of theater indicates the vital understanding the author possessed. The fusion of sound, light, color, form, movement, the position of figures in the space formulates an ontology centered on the body (Shafaieh, 2019, para. 8). It is possible to state that Oskar was about to acknowledge who people are and what they should become through bodily experience. Therefore, the
Introduction Writing for the American Prospect Magazine, Fernholz calls the “too big to fail” concept as the “most hated and least understood Orwellian phrase that usually arise during financial crises” (Fernholz 8). According to (Stern & Feldman 9) too big to fail is the believe that large financial corporations can not fail as the governments watches , since by doing so, the government would be letting the bank to drag down investors, employees and creditors of such institution. Logic therefore dictates that any government that cares about the financial repercussions that such a fall would cause will always intervene to prevent the financial institution from closing shop. Looking at recent trends, one gets the impression that size is not all that matters for a financial institution to be categorized as too big to fail. The systemic risk posed by a bank failure is also a major consideration. That explains why the government watched as Lehman brothers failed, while it moved in to prevent Bear Sterns from falling despite the fact that the former had a larger capital base (Fernholz 10). The too big to fail problem was best described by Jurist Louis Brandeis when he wrote, “Size, we are told is not a crime, but size may at least become noxious through how it is attained or the uses to which it is put” (Dash 3). Aptly put, the too big to fail would not be a problem if too many financial institutions are not becoming bigger through mergers and diversification, and further, with the assurance that the government will not let them fail, goes ahead to take unwarranted risks which could jeopardize their operations. Financial institutions have acquired the “too big to fail’ status with the full knowledge that with size comes some safety from the government and by the extension the taxpayer, because in the event of financial difficulties, the policy makers would fear the enormous effect that their collapse would cause to the economy. According to (Dash 3), too big to fail institutions nestles in the comfort of almost assured tax-payer financed bailouts. But why is “too big to fail” a problem? According to (Stern & Feldman 9), the too big to fail concept elicit a feeling of unfairness especially in smaller institutions, which are justified to think that the government does not
Rape can be defined as sex that one does not agree to. This includes forceful penetration of a body part or object into the vagina, rectum, or mouth without consent. Being raped by someone that you know or a stranger is considered rape if there was no consent. Date rape is defined as forceful sexual contact with an unwilling partner that is either preceded by some social contact/interaction of foreplay. This normally occurs within social relationships. Date rape can be between bosses, a friend of friends, friends, coworkers, or even delivery guys, other terms used to refer to date rape include sleep rape, contact rape, or acquaintance rape. This is because the rapist is usually known to the victim; this may include people like acquaintances, people who are dating, friends, or people who are romantically involved. Date rape normally happens/occurs within the social construct. Mostly both parties are under the influence of either alcohol or other drugs. This normally impairs the reasoning of the rapist and at the same time, it impairs the defense of the victim. Date rape usually involves some coercion which can take different forms which include physical, emotional, or verbal coercion. No one has the right to force another person to have sex, whether they are in an existing relationship or not. When people talk and think about rape, they always assume that it can only happen if it is done by strangers. But unfortunately, studies have shown that half of all the people who are raped know the rapist. Even if these people know each other well or even if they were intimate or have had sex before, no one has the right to force anyone into having sex against his or her will. So date rape and stranger rape should be classified as the same. This is because rape is not an act of love but rather it involves a lot of violence and aggression. Rape is always the fault of the rapist but never the victim. This is the reason why most rape victims do not report date rapes because they tend to feel that it is their fault. They feel like they let it happen. But this is not the case. This is because no one owes anyone sex even if the two people are dating or in an intimate relationship. Sex should be something that the two people agree about. A healthy relationship is based on love and respect and a person who respects his/her partner will never force or rather pressurize him/her to have sex. If this happens, then it should be treated as a crime because it deprives the victim of both emotional and physical autonomy and privacy and is not an agreement between the two parties. Date rape should be treated as a crime just like stranger rape. This is because it has the same consequences as stranger rape. In both situations, the victim is left traumatized and has a lot of mixed feelings that affect her. These include feelings like guilt, confusion, shame, denial, lack of trust, shock, fear, helplessness, and self-doubt. Rape messes up
The purpose of this paper is to explore in deep detail epidemiology research study methods to research epidemiology problems. The considered epidemiological problem is the ophthalmic manifestations of coronavirus disease 2019. With the spread of COVID-19, numerous people became under the threat of acute respiratory illness, which can cause serious complications and several other diseases. Now, when the virus has been found in tears, there is a significant risk that tears and conjunctival sections, in addition to airborne droplets and direct contact may transmit the coronavirus disease. Although ophthalmic manifestations of coronavirus disease 2019 are rare, there is a risk of conjunctivitis as one of the symptoms of coronavirus disease. The following research and literature review are destined to conduct the statistical analysis and investigate the information on the given epidemiology problem. The most vulnerable to the coronavirus infection remain healthcare workers, who constantly deal with covid patients. They need to observe all sanitary precautions. Despite the fact, that conjunctiva is not the most commonplace coronavirus infection, having protective equipment on the eyes can still prevent infection. Research from Olson et al. (2020) is shown that only 1% of Canadian healthcare workers who wore protective eyewear were infected while caring for SARS patients while 8% were infected that did not wear eye protection. The given statistic proves the presence of ophthalmic manifestations of coronavirus disease 2019. According to Guan et al. (2020), conjunctival congestion is identified in nine of 1099 (0.8%) COVID-19- positive patients. Conjunctivitis rests the most spread sign of the presence of COVID-19 infection. A meta-analysis including six studies showed that the overall pooled prevalence of ocular manifestations among COVID-19-infected patients was 5.5% (Ulhaq & Soraya, 2020). According to the above-mentioned statistics, unprotected eyes might cause coronavirus infection. Different methods of researching the subject of ocular manifestation of SARS-CoV-2 RNA are implied. Relevant ocular symptoms data is obtained by communicating with COVID-19- positive patients. Fifteen subjects (27%) reported ocular symptoms in the course of COVID-19, including sore eyes, itching, foreign body sensation, tearing, redness, dry eyes, eye secretions, and floaters (Hong et al., 2020). Some of the patients interviewed claimed that they discovered ocular symptoms before the fever or respiratory ones. In addition, a further three subjects claimed to have worn face masks (without eye protection) during close contact with confirmed COVID-19 cases but were nevertheless still infected (Hong et al., 2020). The conducted investigation once again proves the importance of protecting the ocular surface. The research of Hong et al. (20
