- 25451: Cats Rule
- "A dog is a man's best friend." That common saying may contain some truth, but dogs are not the only animal friend whose companionship people enjoy. For many people, a cat is their best friend. Despite what dog lovers may ... are civilized members of the household. Unlike dogs, cats do not bark or make loud noises. Most cats dont even meow very often. They are generally content to lead a quiet existence. Cats also don't often have "accidents."

- 25452: Hospital Care
- ... pick-ups and deliveries), janitorial staff, and primarily the radiology staff itself. During the first five months of the project I would suspect that this coordination and planning alone would consume 50% of the PM\\'s time. About 40% of the time will be spent researching physical resource requirements of the machine. This will include securing bids from contractors and reviewing them from both a technical standpoint and from the perspective of the contractors ability to allocate sufficient resources to meet the PM\\'s objective. It will also involve negotiating contracts, potentially establishing JIT relationships with related suppliers as well. There are also issues such as public relations, signage, noise and dust abatement, etc. that can be researched and ... so as not to disturb patients. It is assumed that the contractor who was awarded the job presented a Scope of Work that detailed how they were going to complete the project within the PM\\'s time frame. This is where the allocation comes into play in my opinion, not in utilizing hospital staff for the most part, but in reserving budgetary funds to pay premium rates to the external ...
- 25453: Tragic Hero (media)
- A Hero of Another Kind The tragic hero is usually not like an everyday person that is seen on the street. According to Aristotle's book, Poetics, four characteristics establish the essence of a tragic hero. This is very helpful in understanding why the tragic hero is a mediocre type of person. First of all the hero must belong to ... in his judgement otherwise known as hmartia. Finally he must undergo a transition of happiness to misery called peripeteia. In Euripides' tragedy, Medea, Medea can be classified as an atypical tragic hero. To follow Aristotle's four characteristics, Medea fits the first one. She does come from a well-distinguished family.

She sends gifts to the princess that poison her. Medea had a tragic flaw that resulted in how she reacted to Jason's betrayal. Her tragic flaw was her self-will and excessive pride.

- 25454: The American
- At night I toss and turn watching my mind’s replay of people jumping out of the WTC, a hundred stories up. I hold back tears at every US flag flying at half-mast, at every sign of solidarity. I struggle to talk, to smile ... tens of thousands, and one by one a thousand born. And should we believe that a single man could do so much? As if terrorism sprouted from a single soul whose removal would allow tranquility’s return? And if the Terrorist falls, is not a martyr made? How many will rise in his place? How many doubtful followers will we convert into doubtless enemies? All of them we will fight! Each ... fought against them? Was Vietnam not enough? As if trading sands for a jungle changes the game. We have lost two buildings and countless lives; need we erect a wall with countless names, again? War’s price: innocence, family members, love, peace, economies. What is the price of war fought solely by Americans at the cost of Americans without clear objectives, with a faceless enemy? The future. Let us act ...

- 25456: Medical Budget Spending
- ... sponsored cancer clinical trials. Although the Health Care Financing Administration (which administers Medicare) would run the demonstration, it would be funded by specified receipts from national tobacco legislation and, thus, would not draw upon Medicare's Hospital Insurance (HI) or Supplementary Medical Insurance (SMI) trust funds. The proposal includes an evaluation after three years to consider whether to expand the demonstration. Aid for the territories: The budget proposes $153 million in increased funding under CHIP for Puerto Rico and the other four territories, fulfilling the President's promise to provide more equitable funding for children's health care in the insular areas. Health insurance for legal immigrant children: The budget would give States the option to provide health coverage to legal immigrant children under Medicaid and CHIP. Currently, States can ...
- 25457: Violence In Hockey
- ... out between the Canuck players and the Bruin players. Once the referees sorted out the mess and the game was over, the commissioner of the NHL Gary Bettman went right to work sorting out McSorley’s punishment.

If ... that this one is just as severe, yet Suter received only a fraction of what McSorley received. The chief disciplinarian Brian Burke state on February 13, 1998 that if he knew the extent of Kariya’s injuries at the time they handed down the punishment it would have been much more severe than four games. He also said “I cannot change the suspension because it would violate an agreement between the ... of violence, clutching and grabbing, now feels that the NHL has cut back on all of these things and is going to make a return to the game, This may say something about the NHL’s attempt to stop violence. Lemieux is one of the greatest players to ever play and it would be a good thing for the NHL to get him back. They could possibly put together a ...
- 25458: Ionic Bond
- ... their positive and negative ions that make up the solids. These ions become hydrates and have the same relative proportions when in solution and when solid. The more the solid dissolves, the more the ion s concentration increases. This increase and build-up allows for the reverse reaction to occur. In this phase of the reaction the ions crystallise out in order for the reaction to have a greater chance of ... for lead iodide at 25oC is 8.5x10^-9. Through the substitution of the values for each test tube, the trial product, or KSPtrial was obtained. A precipitate then formed in those test tubes who s KSPtrial was greater than the Ksp, whereas if the KSPtrial was calculated as being less than the Ksp, no precipitate formed. Therefor the expression with the KSPtrial closest to the Ksp was the one used ... less soluble in a solution of .1 M KI than in pure water. Adding KI would cause a shift in the equilibrium to the reactants, which would further result in the decrease of the lead s solubility. Inorder to dissolve the coating of lead iodide on the inside of a test tube, you could either decrease the amount of PB or of I in the solution. Thus causing a shift ...
- 25459: Oedipus: Fate is Unavoidable
- ... they have not controlled fate. Fate is uncontrollable. Much like betting on a ³sure thing² and knowing in the back of your mind that there are infinite factors in the outcome--anything could happen. It¹s unfortunate that the people of Ancient Greece sanctioned the concept of fate. In the Era of Enlightenment the idea of God-controlled fate was finally challenged with the notion of self-fulfilled destiny; until then ... startle a man, though not to make him angry as it made me. We were sitting at the table, and a man who had drunk too much cried out that I was not my father¹s son--and I, though angry, restrained my anger for that day; but the next day went to my father and my mother and questioned them. They were indignant at the taunt and that comforted me--and yet the man¹s words rankled...I sought where I might escape those infamous things--the doom that was laid upon me." When Oedipus fled from his parents, he started the chain reaction of ironic happenstance that would ...
- 25460: Modern Vs. Ancient
- ... generation to generation, modern plays also have morals in them, and many of those morals are similar. For example, the theme of Antigone and Oedipus was that we should listen to others, and we shouldn't think that we are always right, because there are always people who know more than we do. The theme from The Effects of Gamma Rays on Man in The Moon Marigolds is very similar. They ... the emotions. For example, in the play Oedipus, there were many tragedies that the author used. In the beginning of the play there was a tragedy because all the people were suffering, and there wasn't enough food. Then after that, there was the problem of who killed the king, and when Oedipus found out it was him, he realized what a fool he was for not listening to others. After ... on Man in The Moon Marigolds, they showed a tragedy when Beatrice killed the rabbit. This is a tragedy because many of the other characters loved the rabbit in the play. Another thing that hasn't changed very much about plays is the physical theater itself. Throughout history, and all the technical advancements we have made since the old plays were created, it is amazing that the actual theater has ...
