Essay Othello Throughout Shakespeare’s play, Othello displays different characters, which are supported by his interactions with other characters such as Lago, who is a character that supports the main plot of the story. Othello, in the play, starts as a high ranking war officer in the Venetian war, but his character begins to disintegrate as the play unravels. His interaction with Lago, who betrays and manipulates him, forces him to showcase his other side by unraveling his jealousy, which deteriorates his character as the story continues. Othello comes from Africa, and he won his post of being a general in the Venetian defense forces by the excellence he portrayed in the war. He has great qualities of a leader such as courage, command, and has got respect for his troops. He is a great leader to the extent that, when he or his troop is under pressure, he delivers a great speech to raise the group’s morale. Othello’s character evolves from a celebrated hero to a shell of a man as he describes himself as “an honorable murderer” and this…
William C. Gorgas and the Panama Canal Introduction The construction of the Panama Canal dates back to the 16th century. There was a potential link between North and South America through a water passage between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. The early European colonialists identified this potential, and there were several proposals to construct a canal. Towards the end of the 19th century, commercial pressure and technological advances necessitated work to begin. The initial attempt to build the Panama Canal was made by the French under engineer Ferdinand de Lesseps. This pioneer group encountered difficulties in excavating the rugged terrain of Panama land. Many people lost their lives because of tropical diseases, and the project was abandoned after partial completion. This essay examines the construction of the Panama Canal after the first attempt by the French failed. Additionally, the essay discusses the health challenges that workers faced and how military-man Colonel William C. Gorgas provided sanitary solutions that saw the success of the Panama Canal construction project. Background William Crawford Gorgas is renowned for his military success and his infectious…
Were the British the true villains of the American Revolution? The American Revolution was one of the unique events in British royal history. Even though this reality is often dismissed in American history classes, there were numerous other British provinces in America, including the different Canadian states (Quebec, Nova Scotia, St. John, Newfoundland), West and East Florida, and states in the Caribbean, all of which didn’t revolt even with the equivalent more prominent majestic overextend and expanded tax assessment (Bailyn, 2017). Yes, I agree with the fact that the British were the true villains of the American Revolution. Immediately the British set foot on the American soil, they amassed a considerable debt that resulted from the costs of supplying, funding and building an army in general. With the expectations that the Americans would settle the debt, the Parliament came up with a series of acts of taxation as a way of improving the debt situation. Americans began to demonstrate and riot while maintaining that their Parliament could make laws, but only those elected as representatives should tax them. As a…
A racial classification for medical genetics Analysis Quayshawn Nigel Julian Spencer’s article, “A racial classification for medical genetics,” explores the controversial concern raised by Esteban Burchard and his peers that a particular approach to racial classification of people is epistemically significant in medicine. In discussing the concern, Spencer, who classifies the ideology as ‘Burchard’s route,’ explores the subject argumentatively. He claims that both critics and proponents of the argument have a point. However, the scrutiny of their claims is necessary. In the case of Spencer, he supports Burchard’s claim objectively. As such, exploring his claims is essential in judging whether to support or oppose the use of ‘Burchard’s route.’ In this paper, the narration supports Spencer’s points that explain Burchard’s argument metaphysically and genetically that the mode of classification is useful in genetic differentiation despite the opposition that the approach highlights inconsequential racial variation. The premise for supporting Burchard’s first argument is that he supports the idea genetically, using case as set of OMB races in classification. The idea from the claim is that the scholar acknowledged the cause of…
Korean People’s Army under the Soviet Union crossed the 38th parallel On June 25, 1950, the Korean People’s Army under the Soviet Union crossed the 38th parallel separating North and South Korea. Unprepared, the Republic of Korea’s army was quickly overtaken and pushed back to Pusan. Ten days after the invasion, President Harry S. Truman ordered that American troops be deployed to Pusan to hold back the communists. While the US did not see a strategic advantage of having soldiers in Korea, it was committed to the war on communism with the Cold War having begun five years prior. With the US having a military presence in South Korea, an assault was coordinated against Inchon to take back Seoul from the North. The incursion was a success and resulted in the capture of over 130,000 North Korean soldiers who were brought to POW camps near Pusan. In 1951 with the compounds becoming overcrowded in Pusan, the UN ruled that POW camps were to be opened on Geoje Island, a small fishing island off the south coast of Korea. Prisoners were…
The British regular army The British regular army didn’t faith in the colonial militia winning in the wars due to its belief that the selection was poorly constituted with recruits being picked from all walks of life with little consideration on quality and competence (Schecter, 2002). This belief was necessitated by the fact that the British regular army recruits were from the lowest social classes with composition of petty criminals, beggars, laborers and farmers hence believing that the colonial militia was a replica of their recruitment strategy (Anderson). Recruitment inefficiency led to the adoption of the forced recruitment strategy into the militia a practice which was abandoned almost immediately due to the noticeable negative impact the strategy had brought into the militia having lost the battles of Saratoga. The British soldiers kept on changing their war strategies due to the unexpected number of obstacles which faced them. In the beginning, they had planned to hold the American Revolution within the Massachusetts. However, the casualty levels on the British soldiers at the battle of Bunker Hill in June 1775 during the…

SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND THE FUTURE Prompt 1. What is Intelligence? Many scholars define intelligence in many ways. Intelligence in general, understanding refers to the mental ability that enables an individual to learn readily, reason, and act effectively with an individual’s surroundings. Intelligence also entails the manipulation of the geometric forms and the acknowledgement of the variations of the pictured objects and their similarities, quantitative thinking, and abstract analysis. Can Intelligence be accurately constructed or measured? Intelligence analysts should always try to come up with recommendations that will help in making a well-grounded decision. The diagnosis of intelligence should have the basis of the analyst perception concerning why and how events usually occur in a certain way as pointed out by (Ghahramani, and Zoubin, 452). Once an individual observes an event, and he or she thinks and knows what is happening, the perception here tends to resist change. The construction and measurement of intelligence cannot be entirely accurate. Who is Raymond Kurzweil? Raymond Kurzweil is one of the world’s greatest living visionaries. He is the brain behind compelling technology and the…
