I chose to look into General Electric for this project because they are an energy supplier and multi-national company. Energy providers have a reputation as a money hungry companies that care about the bottom line more than people and the planet. It is easy for a person to assume that a corporation of GE’s size, money would be its only concern. What I learned was that GE has a public image problem more than a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) problem. The company has been working to make
Australia Day is annually celebrated on the 26th of January; the date recognises the initiation of British sovereignty over Australia in 1788. The nation’s achievements since then are nothing short of outstanding. As regarded as a considerably young nation, we have realized extraordinary growth, expansion, development, stature and respect across the globe; and deemed our greatest achievement, our multiculturalism. Yet despite these momentous attributes and reason to celebrate, we choose to commemorate
Dmitri Mendeleev By: _Kandalynn Naidl_ My Chemist: Dmitri Mendeleev “No law of nature, however general, has been established all at once; its recognition has always been preceded by many presentiments”,said Dmitri Mendeleev. This quote inspired me, and told me to slow down not to rush, to do things in sections. This made me want to pick Dmitri Mendeleev. As soon as I searched him up, the other chemists were ok, I mean a little interesting, but when I read his biography and many of his famous

effect is the Canon Code of 1983 that was signed into office by Pope John Paul II. It differs from previous codes due to how it includes an attempt to “balance Vatican II’s principle of freedom of inquiry and the Church’s legitimate concern to protect its faithful from dangerous writings” (New Catholic Encyclopedia). It is important to note that while there is the 1983 Code of Canon Law, all Eastern Catholic Churches follow a different code, that was enacted in 1991. The 1983 Code of Canon Law is a very

Biochemistry of Nucleic Acids and Recombinant Introduction The following essay will outline the 1983 Nobel Prize winner Paul Berg, for his studies of the biochemistry of nucleic acids and recombinant-DNA. The reason why I chose Paul Berg as my Nobel Laureate was because his findings won him the Nobel Prize in the field of Biochemistry. Since he won the prize for Biochemistry, his findings will cover both Biology and Chemistry, which will help me in two of my NCUK courses. In the essay, a discussion
In Kurt Vonnegut’s essay “1983: New York,” Vonnegut makes the bold statement of comparing those with addictions, namely alcoholics and gamblers, to those who are “addicted” to the practice of war preparation. He claims that both preparers of war and gamblers alike, “are ravenous for situations that will cause their bodies to release exciting chemicals into their bloodstreams” (297). Even though this may be true, it can be argued that the chemicals released in the body of a war preparer come from

The 14th Amendment of the Constitution states that the State shall not deprive any person equal protection of the laws. When equal protection is guaranteed, the outcome must be fair; in other words, substantive justice must be present. Based on this interpretation, McCleskey v. Kemp should be overturned because McCleskey’s death was a racially biased and unfair outcome that was not constitutionally protected by the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment. Justice Blackmun wrote in his dissenting

community of Morenci to cause a mass exodus? The answer: STRIKE. But, not just any strike could break up this community.

Hoogland discusses this argument in the context of black-tailed prairie dogs’ behavior. This article is an attempt to clarify critiques made of his earlier work, from 1981, by Michener & Murie. He defends himself by clarifying a few of the terms he used in his earlier work. In addition, Hoogland makes it a point that
“McDonaldization” was a term first used by George Ritzer in 1983, and was used to refer to the movement of society toward a social structure, which is largely influenced by the ideologies of the fast food industry, namely McDonalds. Ritzer divided this process into five dimensions: efficiency, predictability, calculability, substitution of nonhuman technology, and control. (Ritzer 1983) Efficiency when used in the context of “McDonaldization” (Ritzer 1983) refers to a rationalized society that works to find

Joel Margolis notes that the conservative coalition typically united on votes for “taxes, economic policy, health, education, welfare, and labor” (Shelley 1983, 13).

all belong to a single large unit known as the Belt series. The rocks are very unusual in that they were deposited in late in the Precambrian between 1600 and 800 million years ago and are relatively undeformed and only lightly metamorphosed (Alt, 1983). The rocks can be spotted throughout the large area of western Montana, northern Idaho, and southern British Columbia. The formation of the Belt Supergroup started during the Proterozoic era as a long narrow section of North America extending from
