The first section is when Bell recalls when he became a county sheriff aged twenty-five with a wife whom they have been in the marriage for thirty-one years. The couple had a daughter who is dead now, and he is not going to talk about it. He appreciates the role that her wife has played in his life. The second section is when Wendell and Bell are inspecting Moss’s trailer and finds the trailer’s door lock broken and together leave the scene in a hurry.

Managing Human Resources Projects Some of the risks planned for do happen just like in the scenario described. Dealing with over budget and behind schedule, risks would first require a sit down with the project team to discuss the “why” and get to the problem’s root cause. This will need undivided attention to the project’s Gantt chart establishing the project status in terms of actual dates and completion estimations. The second step will involve determining if: changing the process and the structure would save the project, and if adding more resources would be helpful. This will enable the weighing of benefits to costs. Thirdly, if the verdict is to keep the project alive, then the next step will be juggling resource utilization. Like the chess board game, the project manager can go around priorities to cover up for inconsistencies that will be in the project schedule. The fourth step involves the process of cutting and shifting costs. First, the project manager should have a list of key activities written. The project manager will then identify where costs can be substituted…

Is there any such thing as innate ideas, or is our mind a tabula rasa when we are born? The term tabula was used in the epistemological theory to mean ‘blank slate.’ The theory argued that a human being is born having no integral concepts. Instead, the theory posits that an individual’s knowledge is obtained from perception as well as experience. Tabula rasa theory was advocated for by Locke. On the contrary, Hume argues that you cannot use deduction to prove the process of induction, ‘problem of induction.’ This indicates that issues of facts need sense experience known. This essay, therefore, intends to defend the argument of Hume’s by demonstrating that the rationalist reasoning for innate ideas was incomplete. Hume‘s evaluation of humankind’s belief starts with cautious distinction on the content in our minds; simple imprints are the straight, intense, and powerful results of instantaneous experiences, such as colors, shapes, and smells. These then form complex concepts or ideas, which are simply imitations of these first impressions combined to form an abstract concept. For instance, the color that is a given object…
understanding the decimating effect of factory farming on our natural resources As I was scrolling through Netflix one night recently, looking for the next binge-worthy series to watch, this unassuming documentary caught my eye. The description merely stated ‘understanding the decimating effect of factory farming on our natural resources — and why haven’t human beings seen the effect.’ As a student studying climate change and a keen advocate of sustainability, I was naturally intrigued. But I was not prepared for the hard-hitting truths that this documentary shed light on. The effect of human activities on natural resources has been significant concern over the years. Human beings have concentrated on promoting convenience. They have, however, forgotten to enhance their well-being. The use of factory farming methods has transformed the agricultural industry. The use of such methods involves chemicals and machinery that have a significant adverse effect on the environment. The distraction of the ecosystem through environmental pollution is a threat to human life. The movie mentioned above demonstrates the impact of factory farming methods on the environment. I was already aware…

Forward Seneca, one of the great stoic philosophers, noted in his letters to Lucillus, which appeared on the writings of Fabiunus. ‘Therefore, my dear Lucillus, begin at once to live and count each separate day as a separate life. He, who has thus prepared himself, whose daily life has been a rounded whole, is easy in mind. Those who live for hope alone find the immediate future slipping from their grasp. Additionally, greed steals along in its place and the fear of death, a curse which lays a curse upon everything else. To this end, one who daily puts the finishing touches to his life is never in want of time”. The question that pegs on our mind time and again is, what do I want to do? How do I do it, and why should it be done? These are fundamental questions about the way we structure our life and time. Time in itself is intangible and unalterable, yet its usage and allocation have far-reaching implications. I propose to you that you can only attempt to manage how you…

1993: World Trade Center bombing. It was on February 26, 1993, when a bomb exploded in the World Trade Center’s parking garage. This was the first incident the Diplomatic Security Service (DSS) realized that terrorism had taken an international phenomenon (OpenStax, 2019). The Federal Bureau of Investigation and the New York City police department requested the DSS to help in the investigation. The DSS was able to realize that a group of Middle Eastern individuals were responsible for the attack. NYC and FBI were able to arrest some of the terrorists before they left the country, although Yousef, the driver of the car that carried explosives, was able to escape.
