Governor Glen, The Role of the Indians in the Rivalry Between France, Spain, and England 1761 Introduction The powerful Indian nations entrenched on the ridge of the Appalachian Mountains held the balance among the colonial powers on the North American continent. The Six Nations of the Iroquois are best known, but the great tribes southward along the ridge were almost as influential-the Cherokees, the Choctaws, and the Chickasaws. The Cherokees were generally more friendly with the English, but the other two Indian nations were dominated by the Spanish and French. Governor Glen of South Carolina recognized the role of the Indian nations in the contest among the outposts of Spanish, French, and English…
Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs theory Also called Motivation theory States that there are particular phases which an individual needs to pass, and the progression of each level motivates the individual. The person passes through certain levels when they receive motivation at all levels. Before an individual can attain complete self-actualization or self-fulfillment, that individual must initially have achieved all their needs. The different levels are presented in a pyramid ad for a person to advance up the pyramid; they have first to satisfy lower needs. The pyramid shows basic primary needs, such as water, food, sleep, and sex, at the least level of the pyramid. At the Physiological level, the motivation of an individual is less. However, with traces of motivation, one gets to the safety phase than to the belonging/love phase, after which the person would get to the self-esteem level. Motivation is a significant factor that encourages employees to complete their tasks and work efficiently to reach the desired outcome ultimately. Motivation serves as a stimulant for employees to work with efficacy, ad when they perform their tasks…
Makeup and function of the blood brain barrier. Name Institution Affiliations Makeup and function of the blood brain barrier The makeup The Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) is a physical part of the brain that acts as a barrier to prevent large molecules from entering the brain. These molecules tend to have a potentiality of being toxic, and that is why they must be restricted to protect the brain. The barrier is made to separate the central nervous system and the systematic circulation. The structure of this barrier is made by several tight junctions that are between the endothelial cells of the brain (Murphy, 2017). Apart from the endothelial cells, the blood-brain barrier is also made up of other components. These components include microglia, pericytes, and a basement membrane that is structured by proteins like extracellular matrix. The pericytes are made in a way that they can contract so that they can control the flow of blood in the capillaries. There is also part of the brain called brain parenchyma, which the barrier protects…
Probing for Key Issues and Clarity Probing is the act of skillfully asking questions for more information or detail on a specific issue or matter (Nappi, 2016). Frequently, probing questions are open-ended follow-up questions that aim to clarify a point, giving a clear comprehension because of the problem and the steps to take to move forward. Statement probes are close-ended remarks provided by a therapist that seeks to get a precise clarification of the underlying issue through critical thinking. Empathic responses reflect on a specific communicated feeling as well as why the mood has been experienced (Bulent, 2016). Useful probing questions open up a more profound understanding of an individual’s personal opinion and feelings, providing the root basis of the issue and the possible approaches to challenge and tackle the problem. It allows the engagement of critical and reflective thinking, empowering the client asked the questions to take different perspectives in managing a dilemma (Wood, 2019). Case 1 A young woman, recently hired, is discussing her feeling about her boss. “The more I do, the more the boss seems…

The individual is faced with a critical position in which he or she has to decide what is socially acceptable or that that which satisfies an individual moral guideline. The general assumptions provide that the individual would determine what is religiously and culturally acceptable in making the decisions. Personally, satisfying societal needs would be worthless if it means causing direct harm to an individual.

This is because her uncle, who is responsible for funding her education, would hear none of it. She has been in hiding and says that if the information is…
enforcement mechanism the ICC uses in dispensing justice internationally as well as bringing about cooperation between discordant countries Introduction The International Criminal Court (ICC) formed in 2002 after several countries became signatories of the Rome Statute. Part of the court’s mandate includes identifying, investigating, and indicting criminals involved in international crimes that have a geopolitical, legal, and financial implication internationally. In order to achieve this objective, the international body of law uses various enforcement mechanisms to ensure member countries observe treaties, maintain cooperation, and solve conflicts amicably. This essay investigates which enforcement mechanism the ICC uses in dispensing justice internationally as well as bringing about cooperation between discordant countries. It will also exemplify cooperation, the lack thereof, and analyze its existence between the countries involved. Question One The International Criminal Court recently set its sights on Burundi as the current president makes illegal moves to seek a third term. Part of the citizenry’s reactions to this illegal and unconstitutional action by the president has been demonstrations and rebel activity. These activities precipitated breech of human rights and many deaths in…
Hospitality in Homer’s Odyssey The Odyssey is a cultural document incorporating societal values that created it offering insights into ideas of virtue and heroism during the time of the poet. The most critical societal value in The Odyssey is hospitality. Also referred to as “guest-friendship,” hospitality represented a social ritual required of men within the Greek ancient world. Hospitability guidelines expected men to be hosts to visitors, where they offered them food, a gift of friendship, a bath, a promise of safety in the night, including a safe, escorted travel to the visitor’s next destination. Guests are expected to present no threat to property or life and return the favor to their host should they become guests in the future. This paper aims at comparing hospitalities between Telemachus, Odyssey’s son, and Nausikaa, the Phaiakian princess, and Arete and Alkinoös’s daughter. Through Telemachus, Odyssey offers an example of hospitality both as a guest and as a host. According to the narrator, Telemachus is the only person in the household who treats guests with the required respect. Of the many examples of…
Jealousy and betrayal in the play Perhaps the most exotic, exciting, and fascinating character in William Shakespeare’s tragic play “Othello” is the “Honest” young protagonist man lago. In the course of some deep and carefully thought-out activities and words, the young man lago is capable of influencing other characters in the play. Such as Othello, Roderigo, and his wife in performing or doing things that favor him and moves him closer towards his life goals and ambitions. He is the main driving force in this tragic play; he pushes Othello and other characters such as Desdemona and Roderigo towards their sad climax. The theme of the play is jealousy and betrayal, as is made clear lago’s actions throughout the play. lago is not your typical lousy character. The role and part he plays is somewhat complex and unique, very far from what everyone who reads the play could expect. lago is wise and smart as far as the play is concerned. He is a professional judge of individuals and their behaviors and turns them to his benefits. For instance, he…
Tom Paine, Common Sense (1776) Introduction PERHAPS the sentiments contained in the following pages, are not yet sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favor; a long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defence of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason. As a long and violent abuse of power, is generally the Means of calling the right of it in question (and in Matters too which might never have been thought of, had not the Sufferers been aggravated into the inquiry) and as the King of England hath undertaken in his own Right, to support the Parliament in what he calls Theirs, and as the good people of this country are grievously oppressed by the combination, they have an undoubted privilege to inquire into the pretensions of both, and equally to reject the usurpations of either. . . . The cause of America is in a great measure the cause of all mankind. Many circumstances have, and…
