Research Paper

Wild horses of Asstatuge live in Maryland. Asstatuge is an Island so the horses are shown in water. The horses on Asstatug Island survive from each other. Asstatuge's horses are herds of horses so they do not have an owner. That's why they are called wild horses because there don't have an owner.

The first paper is due by Monday, April 9, 11:59 p.m. You MAY use sources outside of the Liberty Search Engine (and are encouraged to do so). Also you may use scholarly books and not just journal articles. You should avoid using generic websites that do not appear scholarly in nature. A good rule of thumb is that if a website does not have an author, it is not a good source. Good online material has also usually been published in print at some point. Google Scholar and JSTOR are great places to search, as well as the online encyclopedias I've shown you. Always feel free to send me an email if you have questions about sources or formatting.

“Get knowledge of the spine, for this is the requisite for many diseases.” –Hippocrates, 460-377 BC. If a Greek physician could make this statement over 2300 years ago, why is it such an under-exposed theory today? As stated in Chiropractic First, written by Dr. Rondberg, a chiropractor of 35 years and founder of the “Chiropractic Journal,” Hippocrates “believed that only nature could heal and it was the physician’s duty to remove any obstruction that would prevent the body from healing” (8-9). These “physicians” are called chiropractors today, and their goal is to remove subluxations, the displacement of two or more spinal disks that causes

On May 2, 2012, the National Football League lost one of its elite players to suicide: Junior Seau. Seau played for the Chargers, Dolphins, and the Patriots during his professional football career and was a 12-time Pro Bowler before retiring in 2009. Three years after his retirement however, Seau committed suicide by shooting himself in the chest with a gun. This greatly shocked the football world and its image of Junior Seau as a person, but it soon realized the cause for his action. Shortly after Seau’s death, researchers examined Seau’s brain and found that it contained a disease known as chronic traumatic encephalopathy which is formed

1). As far as it goes for what is considered highly segregated measurements and lower segregated measurements, cities with a measurement under 30 is considered well integrated, cities with a measurement between 30 and 60 are considered moderately segregated, and cities with a measurement over 60 are considered very segregated (Massed and Denton 1993, p. 20). One of the main reasons that the DI is the most widely used because it can be consistently constructed with the census data that is available during the time you are looking at, and this is and easy way to compare censuses numbers from different times in a consistent manner (Boustan, p. 1).

It is not difficult to figure out what the liberal arts are; all it took was a simple google search and the definition was brought up instantly. Liberal arts are academic subjects such as literature, philosophy, mathematics, and social and physical sciences as distinct from professional and technical subjects. I am not majoring in any of these subjects and I hardly have any classes such as these in my schedule so I decided I needed to look up definitions that actually pertain to me. The definition of a liberal arts college was just as easy to find as the last one. A liberal arts college is a college with an emphasis on undergraduate study in the liberal arts and sciences. A liberal arts college aims to impart a broad general knowledge and

When I first heard of liberal arts schools, I thought of institutions like Julliard where students who want to study the arts attend. I pictured students painting on canvas, dancers leaping across stage, and musicians composing beautiful music. Since beginning my college visitations, I have come to realize that is far from what you will see at liberal arts colleges such as Loras. A liberal arts education not only touches on the arts but also the areas of history, science, math, language, and several more. Throughout my first thirteen years of schooling, I have taken classes covering many different subjects. Liberal arts schools continue to encourage one to learn about topics in various areas of study in order to obtain a more rounded education.

Accepting symbolic boundaries fosters what become social boundaries. Social boundaries are objective, socially constructed limitations or guidelines that direct people’s thoughts, actions and functions in society by telling people what is socially acceptable and what is not. In accordance with determining what is socially acceptable, symbolic boundaries reinforce social inequalities by determining what people do and do not have access to in terms of resources. Lamont and Molnar explain this transition from symbolic boundaries to social boundaries and vice-versa through the construction and deconstruction of the Berlin Wall. Germany symbolically split into two groups, treating each other as opposing, as “the disappearance of the territorial boundary left almost intact the deep divide between former East and Western Germans as differences continue to be reproduced through a myriad of symbolic boundaries” (2002:184). Here, symbolic boundaries are the classification of differences between East and West Germans through verbal treatment of one another, social expectations and classifications. Widely accepting the symbolic boundary created inequality by regulating what is socially acceptable and unacceptable for Eastern or Western Germans and determining the available resources for them. Symbolic

The following day, Coates returned to work with her notepad full of notes that she’d collected after studying Reno’s Facebook page. They’d been told that he and Savannah were madly in love, the next power couple, and had been dating for two years. They’d seen how he comforted Darlene, Savannah’s mother, at the crime scene. Coates’ experience had taught her that nothing is what it seems and Reno’s Facebook page corroborated her skills.

Business is a growing major and currently the most common major among college students. Being a business major at a liberal arts college is underappreciated amongst the students because they see courses as unnecessary towards their future careers. The question of “what a college education should provide” arises. Education is important but it is also important to learn how survive in the world and contribute to it. Business majors are growing meaning the requirements in a business are growing as well. It takes more than knowing how to do your job in todays society, you have to be able to stand out. The world is challenging and simply knowing the basis of business no longer cuts it because education is tied together as one. Furthermore, a liberal arts education provides the necessities needed for a successful year.

The amount of segregation present in a population can reflect the social inequality present in that population (Chen, et. all, 199). Segregation is measure by the Index of Dissimilarity which is defined as “[a statistic that] reveals the percentage of a racial group that would have to move to achieve integration,” by Introduction to Cities (Chen, et. all, 199). However, the text also acknowledges that other factors, such as dissimilarity, exposure, and isolation, also factor

Let’s start with what exactly the liberal arts are “The term comes from the medieval concept of the artes liberalis, the seven liberal arts that were appropriate for a free man to pursue, verses artes illiberalis or artes mechanicae which were pursued for economic purposes and involved vocational and practical arts, which prepared young persons to become weavers, blacksmiths, farmers, hunters, navigators, soldiers, or doctors. The seven liberal arts included three basic arts focused on developing a felicity with language: grammar, rhetoric, and dialectic. There were four advanced mathematical-physical arts: geometry, arithmetic, music, and astronomy, who were known as quadrivim” (Roche, 5).

In the United States, starting salaries for teachers who have completed a four-year degree are far lower compared to many other professions, which also require a four-year degree. In most states, teachers must undergo testing and other rigorous certification requirements, but they are given the same consideration or status as beginning professionals in other areas. Although attractive incentives are offered, the compensation does not compare to the long hours of work and schooling required for a teaching career.

This model was chosen because it experienced the most significant increase in adjusted R2 (up from 90.5%) and a decrease in AIC (down from 773.9) from the OLS model. The coefficients that were computed by the GWR tool and mapped (Figure 2) helped to demonstrate that each explanatory variable and its associated coefficient vary spatially in its predictive strength of the dependent variable. As we know, there is spatial autocorrelation and relationships in the data. This is not necessarily negative but it is important to capture the structure of the correlation in the model residues with explanatory variables. Until then, the model cannot necessarily be trusted (ESRI, 2016). However, the high level of significance of the p-value (0.0000) and the z-value (6.059441) indicate that the model can be trusted. The small p-value indicates that the coefficients are not zero and therefore the explanatory variables are statistically significant predictors of the behaviour of the dependent variable (ESRI, 2016). The small dataset is more troubling. Some future solutions for eliminating spatial autocorrelation include continuing to resample variables until there is no more statistically significant spatial autocorrelation (clustering). Unfortunately, that was not accomplished during the OLS regression without interfering with the ability of the GWR to run. The output of the OLS

studies typically compare the outputs produced by school systems, often measured in school performance or educational attainment. These comparisons are important for educational research and policy making. Therefore, insufficient attention is paid to the changing contexts in which these outputs are created. In particular the institutional arrangements of educational systems are highly relevant for educational and social stratification processes within societies ( Meyer 1977, Kerckhoff 1995, Van der Werfhost and Mijs 2010). The relevance of long standing national traditions in educational institutions persists even in an era of globalization ( Mayer 2001) At the same time, difference abound within federal countries, such as the United States and Germany, requiring explanations below the nation state level. Specifically in federal countries with internal differentiation, typologies offer a useful tool to understand patterns of institutional development, especially in periods of political and social transformation. German unification after 1989 provides a unique occasion to investigate the effects that reforms of educational institutions have on educational opportunities and their impact on social inequality. The transformation of eastern Germany resulted in a developmental field experiment (Humphreys and Weinstein 2009) After the fall of the Berlin Wall, the reunification standardized and uniform national educational system of the German Democratic Republic, in particular
