“ALL OUR DREAMS CAN COME TRUE, IF WE HAVE THE COURAGE TO PERSUE THEM” Since the dawn of mankind, knowledge, and application of business techniques, be it barter, trade, or plain retail, has been a key factor for a civilization to prosper or crumble in the shadow of someone else. It was the truth of the world then, and it still is. This thought has always baffled me ever since I was a child. What fascinated me since the very beginning was the idea of how money is generated, retained, reused, and multiplied. At least that’s what I have seen my father doing since the time my memory can run back to.   “ALL OUR DREAMS CAN COME TRUE, IF WE HAVE THE COURAGE TO PERSUE THEM”   These famous words by the fantasy legend Walt Disney have inspired me throughout my life to work and strive hard to fulfill my aspirations. The dream to become a successful entrepreneur has sunk its roots in my persona since the very start. Early off as a teenager, I have been going through…

types of study designs: – cross-sectional, cohort, and randomized controlled studies Epidemiology is a branch of medicine dealing with the occurrence, prevalence, patterns, and possible control of diseases, among other factors that relate to public health. Epidemiology is essential in public health since epidemiologists can conduct outbreak investigations, survey diseases, and subsequently identify risk factors of various diseases. An epidemiological study can take many forms and occurs in the stages of preparation, finding cases and recording data, data analysis, development of hypotheses, and testing of the hypotheses epidemiologically. This paper will critically review three articles on three types of study designs: – cross-sectional, cohort, and randomized controlled studies. Background In a broader sense, epidemiology can be defined as the study of the distribution in terms of subject, location, and time i.e., who, where, and when, determinants and patterns of disease conditions in a population, done through public health research. Epidemiology is vital in public health since the study assists in the identification of risk factors for diseases and the preventive measures that can be taken up against them. Public health…

my academic ability to study at a master’s level My name is Tianwei You, and I am seeking an opportunity to pursue a master’s degree in economics. I enrolled at the University of Victoria in 2014, thanks to a $12 000 scholarship. As my, it is time to start thinking about my future. My math talent inspired my desire to study economics. Since I was in elementary school, I have performed significantly well in mathematics compared to any other subject. Because of my love for math, I began learning several complicated formulas and then used them to solve problems in exam questions. It is precisely for this reason that I have continued to perform exemplary in economics courses. For example, I scored an “A” in Descript Statistics and Probability and Public Economics, and “A+” in Statistical Inference and Economic Development. Economics has allowed me to apply the complex formulas that I have learned over the years to real-world problems. For instance, my mathematical skills were beneficial during the statistical inference course, particularly when learning about investments in the stock market…

Environmental Science E-portfolio Replacement Paper Climate Change Climate Change is a global problem, and the situation has not improved since it was first recognized. There is evidence to support the notion of climate change, such as N.A.S.A. publication on global temperatures over the years. For instance, Shaftel (2019) affirms that the average surface temperatures of the planet has risen to about 1.62 degrees Fahrenheit since the late 19th century, a change driven largely by increased carbon dioxide and other human-made emissions into the atmosphere. Further, most of this global warming occurred in the past 35 years, with the five warmest years on record taking place since 2010 (Shaftel, 2019). This is clear evidence that supports the fact that there is constantly increasing and uncontrolled amount of daily human activities resulting in increased Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. As a result, the temperatures on the planet has increased over the recent years and led to severe environmental changes such as rise in sea levels due to melting of polar ice caps where the result is probably rising in sea level caused…

What are the psychological impacts of climate change? Research Question What are the psychological impacts of climate change? The Issue of Climate Change Climate change is an expression that is used to describe the changes in atmospheric conditions over some time, due to natural variations or resulting from human activity. Climatic changes include fluctuationsin temperature, precipitation, and wind patterns over an elongated period, usually between months and millions of years (Clayton et al., n.p). The variations may occur in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, earth’s surface, and biosphere. Climate change is not a phenomenon that just happened overnight. The accelerated rate of the variation of the conditions over the past few decades is attributed to human activity/behavior. The main driver of climate change is the emission of greenhouse gases (GHG) through human activities such as combustion of fossil fuels (Gifford, Robert, Karine, and Angel, 163). It is, therefore, undoubtful that the rate of climate change can be reduced by changing human behavior that leads to the effect. It is regrettable that many people still do not understand how human behavior contributes…

1972 Cold War Shenanigans   Throughout history, people have always played sports. In the 1930s, James Naismith invented the game of basketball, and ever since, it has grown in popularity, not only in the United States but also in other countries. In the 1936 Berlin Olympics, basketball was added as an Olympic sport. Entering the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich, Germany, the United States had only lost three games and had won all the gold medals. Then they were defeated by the Soviet Union in the finals, who was their rival during the Cold War. The match was controversial and the loss was significant within Cold War history for both countries and the sport in general. The Games were intruded upon by the Black September terrorists in what has been called the Munich Massacre, which overshadowed all sporting events, including the gold medal basketball game. The Cold War went from 1947-1991 and referred to the tension between the United States and the Soviet Union. The two countries were on the same side during World War II but eventually became enemies,…

 Wealth Tax A wealth tax is founded on the market value of assets that an individual owns, and imposed on the wealth he or she possesses. A wealth tax is based on an individual’s net worth, that includes assets, minus liabilities. Back in 1999, Donald Trump proposed a wealth tax on the net worth of individuals and trusts that are valued at $10 million or more. He added that it would give rise to $5.7 trillion in new taxes, and by s doing, the money can be utilized in clearing the national debt. An economist based in New York University, Daniel Altman, thinks a wealth tax will help the economy. He made a proposal suggesting wealth tax to replace income tax. He estimated that a flat wealth tax of about 1.5 percent would be befitting as a replacement of revenue from current income and estate taxes. An article written by Nigel Chwaya et al. (2019), most economists think that income inequality has been a significant problem in the United States. Most billionaires have an accelerated earning power, thus accumulating vast…

What are the top 15 rules of grammar? Before we tackle the rules of grammar, let us grasp the meaning of the word itself. So, what is grammar? Grammar is the art where you place words in the right order according to the work they are intended. In short, grammar is how words are structured to form a sentence, and for a sentence to be grammatically correct, there are specific rules that should be followed. The most basic rules of grammar fall under the parts of speech and sentence structure. Parts of speech. Every grammatical word in the English language falls under a particular part of speech. Parts of speech are divided into eight. These are the nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, interjections, and adjectives, each one with its laws of use. Nouns Nouns are naming words. They name a person, a place, a thing, an idea, an activity, a quality, or a feeling. For example; The book is on the table. My name is Caroline. The words in bold are nouns that represent a thing and a person,…
