The majority of his writing being love poems, examines several relationships, person to person, creator to creation, and object to object. Specifically we focus on one reading in particular ‘Hadith of Love’. Through the several love based texts, it creates a definite picture of the specific gender roles and rankings of the time, both for female and male. In Hadith of Love we

as mentioned by Fisher, Ury, and Patton (1991, p. 100). Since ads to sell the station had been running for a few months with no attractive propositions, I was becoming open to the possibility of not selling the station at all and continuing to run it - it became a definite element of my BATNA, although it would mean that my husband and I would be abandoning our dream plans. BP had already offered $400K for the station and even though that was a much lower amount than I was expecting, I could simply

Discussion Based on the methods and the data given, DDACTS could be considered another reactive approach to reducing crime and traffic safety. However, the College Station study conducted by Kuo established that DDACTS was anything but reactive. The College Station study concluded data from crashes and crimes can be clustered together aiding in the reduction of crime and dispatch times within the department (Kuo 2013). In 2008, Baltimore implemented DDACTS in two phases to address their concerns

in an unpredictable relationship with a person she didn't truly know, surrounded by celebrities and paparazzi who worked behind her back, dragging her down for personal gain.

As the movie begins, it shows the actual footage of Oscar Grant and several of his friends being detained by the BART Police at the Fruitvale Station in Oakland on New Year’s Day.
