I was invited to attend the Amish dinner party in the home of J and B Yoder, of Shipshawana on October 16, 2010, at 600pm. sise other people were invited to attend this special dinner and I arrived early so I could hold open them as th ey arrived. The home was completely inviting and modify in forest article of furniture and home-baked furnishings anyone would be of reposeer. tenuous Amish children could be found path around, loads of women with aprons carrying nutriment dishes to the take in area, even a red hot was barking and trial some while all this whirl was happening. I rippleed to Mrs. Yoder, the wife of Mr. Yoder, who is the head of the household. I asked her many questions near being Amish, sustentation with extend family, and what her gardening is equal on a day to day basis.She excitingly talked somewhat her family and her lofty horti finishing of being Amish. She went on to talk or so the coarse sum ups of work that has to be through with(p) each day and each person residing in the home has their own responsibilities. She named a someer of hers, including washables by hand, bathe the 7 unfledged children, making 12 loafs of slit terrene and the cleaning.

The jump to arrive was the Adams Family. at that place were twain adults and two small children. They entered the house with much gratitude and was introduced to Mr. and Mrs. Yoder. The children were brought into the rumpus room to short-change with the Amish children. I stood in the approach to learn the children and sight the communication was all rough the Amish childs wearing.A Adams, w as ask the sainted Amish son wherefore he had to wear the comparable out fit as the other Amish sons and men. He even asked if it was his Halloween costume. It was nasty to me that at the age of 5, Alex knew that the clothing was out of his cordial norm.

Mrs. Adams was in the kitchen nerve-racking to help merely her attempts were dour down by the novel Amish women. The succeeding(a) to arrive was a faint pas de deux. They were not as out press release away and courteous as the Adam s family. They sat at the table and did not get up and view around or base on balls any assistance to the Amish women. I walked up to this twain and introduced myself to them. They had just move to the area and was invited to the dinner by friends. They presently had no knowledge or baffle with the Amish and were astounded by their lifestyle.They were fervent to try the scrumptious sustenance they kept hear all about. They also commented on neer cunning anyone who could live life without cars, electricity etc. The dreary man did ask if on that point were black Amish families in the area and Mr. Yoder commented that he did not know of any and that he was sure thither were African Americans who equal in his same culture. at once the guests were all arrived, they were all invited to fulfill into the garage area where thither were long tables set up for the dinner. unripe girls wore cute aprons and were introduced as our servers for the evening.

Mr. and Mrs. Yoder came out and welcomed everyone formally and asked to suppose a free grace on the aliment. This was unquestionably part of their beliefs and everyone took the move kind-heartedly. We therefore sat as the schoolboyish Amish girls brought platters and platters of food to our tables. wide substances of deep-fried yellowish, chicken and noodles, mashed potatoes, lots of divers(prenominal) vegetables, white turkey and ham were purchasable to enjoy. Everyone ate and kept to themselves. The Amish girls were busy trail back and forth with new platters of food and pitchers full of impudent lemonade. at that place was no entertainment of any kind and we very rarely apothegm the hostesses. It would countenance been splendid if they were around to execute questions or to raise information ab out their culture to the invited guests. After the main course was absolved and everyone was full with a enraptured amount of food, they brought out the pie. thither was lots of joyful and excitement. We were allowed 2 pieces and there was about 10 varied choices. My preserve and I chose 4 incompatible choices and nibbled at each of them. The Amish are in spades know for their luscious pies and bakery items. As the guests easy left as they unblemished their deserts.I watched and only a few took their rotten dishes into the kitchen. Those that did, took the time to convey the Yoder family for this special occasion. A couple of the unfledged Amish boys then took a few of the men on a charm of the property. The Amish are emphatically a rare sociable institution of its own. They go against the world and live life like they did a million years ago and deliver the goods. No cellphoneular phone phones, no internet, no cars, no electricity, no gasoline, etc. These stark set make the foreigner unpaired of such institution. I comprehend people say many times, I could neer live like this, how do they do it?

The Amish are a ghostly group, they are sweet and full of Gods spirit. The are a kind people, a family orientated people. They are altruistic, evermore doing service for soulfulness else. I cant help but call up what our society would be like with in sereneed and promote unspeakable value and beliefs. wholeness can still contract electricity and be kind, fetch it off their families and do selfless acts of service right?

I found, however, that it makes a group more in all likelihood to socialise if psyche opens up first and introduces themselves.

How and Why Does Du Bois Allude to Swift's A Modest Proposal Essay

How and Why Does Du Bois Allude to fasts A Modest Proposal - Essay ExampleIn his story, A Mild Suggestion, Du Bois alludes Swifts A Modest Proposal. Having looked at the problems that were caused by the high population characterized by poor people in Ireland, Swift does his calculations and comes up with a proposal for the Ireland society. He says that, I propose to provide for them in such a Manner, as, instead of being a Charge upon their Parents, or the Parish, or wanting Food and Raiment for the rest of their Lives they shall, on the contrary, contribute to the Feeding, and partly to the Clothing, of many Thousands (Swift 3). Swift states that the problem that affects the society to the highest degree is overpopulation. In fact, he states that most abortions occur in society because of financial constraints as opposed to moral decadence. He states that poor people give birth to many children whereas they cannot afford to bring home the bacon for their needs. Through satire, he proposes that poor catholic families of Irish origin should feed and fatten their children then sell them to wealthy people, the Protestants, who are the land owners. This way they willing be able to re calculate the predicament of poverty and starving their children. The wealthy Protestants would use those children for their food purposes. This is a satirical story that mocks the poor in the society(Swift 4). W.E.B Du Bois alludes Swifts A Modest Proposal by writing A Mild Suggestion. ...

The problem that Swift wants to solve is poverty and starvation caused by irresponsible births brought about by the poor. Dubois wants to solve the problem of racism that exists between the white population and the black population, in the United States of America. Both Swift and Du Bois offer controversial solutions that favor one collection and discriminate on another group, in the same society. Du Bois alludes Swift by offering a similar proposal but on a diametric case. Despite the fact that Du Boise does not carry out a mathematical analysis, he analyzes the issues surrounding racism between the whites and blacks, in America. After his analysis, he proposes to the white that the best option is to slaughter blacks. Du Bois similarly proposes that slaughtering the people who are the problem, in the society is the best solution. Swift proposes the children to be slaughtered while Du Bois proposes the blacks to be slaughtered (Du Bois 50). Du Bois too alludes Swift by offeri ng a solution to the problem that affects the people who are powerful or the high class in the society. In brisks case, the powerful are the wealthy Protestants.

Philosophy in law final Research Paper Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 1250 words

Philosophy in law final - Research Paper ExampleSome of the topics that these black philosophers argon currently teaching and writing include law, physics, philosophy of language, ethics, logic, epistemology, history of philosophy, philosophy of mind, ancient philosophy, philosophy of science, and many more others. Quite a large number of African-American academically trained philosophers are engaged in publishing scholarly articles as well as academic books that contain topics that are directly related to either race or other aspects concerning the experiences of African-American people. Indeed, a majority of African-American philosophers have found themselves concentrating on social analysis that revolves around the concept of the hard and brutal facts of the case, as observed by Martin Luther King (Papish, 2015).Though there is a myriad of literature reviews showing various philosophers and how their works have molded the concept of law, there is little of such literature review s touching on African-American philosophers. Therefore, this research paper will seek to show how the works of African-American philosophers have shaped or influenced the concept of law.The main source of data used for this research was secondary sources that mainly comprised of books and journals. This method was appropriate since it is relatively cheap as considered to immemorial sources such as interviews and administration of questionnaires. Additionally, the information obtained is relatively accurate because information stored in a book is not subject to change or torturing over a period of time (Kerr, 2014). Furthermore there are various different books and journals that talk about African-American philosophers hence provided enough sum total of material for comparison.The data obtained was mainly analyzed through comparison of the ideas that each author presented in the journal or book.

Implementing and Evaluating Public Policy Simulation Summary_303 Essay

Implementing and Evaluating Public Policy Simulation Summary_303 - Essay ExampleLobbyists have been known and branded for their influence on how policies are developed and which ones are rattling seen by the light of day. Influence peddlers are rampant in the halls of Congress. Lobbying has turned into a profession and has since been regulated. A professional lobbyist one who has mastered the techniques of lobbying is a precious ally to any please group seeking to influence government (Sidlow and Henschen, 2009, p.141). They represent the loud minority view and quite often are fuelled by large corporations with deep pockets. In the given case involving Governor Nunez and outsourcing, one member of his team is Sylvia Baldwin, a corporate lobbyist for Levine & Associates closely associated to Information Technology. Another is Dr. ramona Gaitanis who is an advocate of free trade and global competitiveness, which is the very essence of outsourcing. Seemingly, the only neutral member of the team is William Morrison who is an expert in policy initiatives but his situation on the issue was not made clear. Upon looking at the qualifications of the team members, it is apparent that they are one-dimensional which makes it understandable why the Governor voted for outsourcing. Without powerful interest groups, lobbyists are bound to get their way with impunity disregarding other stakeholders. To reiterate, there is no black without white and that both must co-exist for the general good.There is a great possibility that continued fine-tuning in policy implementation renders the implementer to overlook the core problem he is trying to solve. By trying to translate the tactual sensation of the policy through its implementation, or at least make it workable, the implementer somewhat develops tunnel vision and forgets the main purpose of the policy.

Critique of Academic Journal Essay Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 750 words

Critique of Academic Journal - Essay ExampleHowever, this diversitys dilatory move into the normal corporate field has brought with it a few negative outcomes (Kelan 2009). It makes it harder to deal with instances of subtle discrimination against women (Calas and Smircich 2006). This diversity simply eliminates the more obvious types of sex activity discrimination while allowing the attitudes that support such(prenominal) practices to go unchallenged (Gill 2007). For instance, women are usually exempted from the net operative that takes place among the men in the maneuverplace, as well as from working on with the businesss most prominent lawyers (Nentwich 2006). When women are confronted with such situations in an era that has actually had laws passed to support their functioning in the workplace, they are probably to think that they are the ones who are either too arrogant, or cold, and thus are non easy to approach for workplace friendships (Johns, Schmader and Martens 2005). They are not seeming to suppose that the reason for their being left out of things is because they are women (Crump, Logan and McIlroy 2007). Critique Gender fatigue is constructive because it alerts the society that even with the existing laws and regulations that encourage women to work women are still not treated in the same way as men in the workplace (Lewis 2006). For instance, in a recent research conducted in a business environment, it was established that male workers ignore what might appear to be sex activity discrimination because they equate their calmness in such instances with showing tolerance or acceptance (Bailyn 2003). Female workers, on the other hand, ascertain that if they work harder, they will be able to change the minds of sexist employers (Blau, Brinton and Grusky 2006). In such cases, it can be pointed out that gender fatigue is an appropriate explanation for such pusillanimous behavior on the part of workers (Ely, Meyerson and Davidson 2006). Elizabet h Kelans expression on gender fatigue appears to bring up an authentic problem that might actually be one of the reasons contributing to the continuing inequality that women recognize in the workplace. The fact that her survey participants indicated that they had heard of cases of discrimination showed that such cases still exist even in an era in which many people feel that the goals of women being permanently accepted in the workplace have been sufficiently addressed. The fact that the workers being surveyed mentioned that instances of gender discrimination usually happen in singular form episodes and not as a whole also contributes toward the gender fatigue theory. If the incidences of discrimination against women happened in bulk, the opposition would have been more vocal. However, instances where some women are discriminated against and not others are not as visible and can cause doubts to arise when reported.

Comp bed to a decade ago, many people in developed economies can now purchase goods online, buy air tickets and earn degrees online. Health records have for a long time depended on the traditional system of record keeping that is tedious and prone to errors. Electronic health Record (EHR) system plays a zippy role in transforming the healthcare system mainly from a paper based system to a comprehensive computerized system through the use of clinical information to deliver high quality care to the patients. Various countries have come up with laws that manage require the healthcare facilities to adopt EHR and utilize it in a meaningful way with respect to cost containment and errors reduction.This is expected to transform the healthcare institutions for the benefits of both patients and administrators.

Consulted Magna with Recommendations Essay Example for Free

Consulted Magna with Recommendations EssayMagna International Inc. (Magna) is a Canadian car and light trucks parts maker, who design, split up and manufacture automotive systems, assemblies, modules and components, as salutary as engineers and assembles complete vehicles, primarily for sale to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Magna operates in three geographical regions North America, Europe, and the rest of the military force (mainly Asia, South America and Africa), making Magna an international company. We have investigated Magna and identified two key issues they argon currently facing.Firstly, Magna is suffering Quality Control problems in their divisions, such(prenominal) as Magna Powertrain, Magna Steyr, Magna Closures, Magna Car Top Systems, etc. The current method of dealing with problems is a weak matrix mental synthesis. However, we recommend two alternatives that will increase Magnas efficiency. Our beginning recommendation is to create a sacred Team. O ur bite recommendation is to enhance the existing Matrix Structure, by making it stronger. We illustrate numerous strengths and weaknesses for each recommendation.The second issue Magna is dealing with is the increased pressure to unionize their employees. To a degree, this matter seems unavoidable. We simply recommend Magana create a Managements Rights Clause and/or Management Prerogatives Rights in order to protect their rights and clarify various aspects of employment rights from the beginning. Therefore, Magna needs to assess these alternatives from their internal perspective. As a consulting agency, we can only suggest alternatives that would suit the government and improve their current drawbacks. Introduction Magna International Inc.(Magna) is a Canadian car parts maker and supplier to a wide variety of automakers throughout the world. The systems Magna provides argon major components in the final assembly of cars, for GM, Ford, Chrysler, Mercedes, BMW, Toyota, Honda, Porsc he, Volkswagen, along with others. We have identified two issues with Magna, for which we have derived several alternatives. One issue is Quality Control (QC) in Magnas systems, which is due to disposalal structure when dealing with QC. A nonher issue that Magna is currently experiencing is the increasing pressures to unionize their employees.Magnas current QC procedure will be discussed, followed by an digest of Magnas two key issues we have identified including alternatives that we propose. Current Quality Control Process In order to properly asses the current situation with the QC motiones an employee of Magna directly pertain with such issues was interviewed. The company is organized in a bite of independent divisions that are system/product oriented, for example Vision System, Powertrain System, Electronic System, etc. apiece of these divisions is involved in a final system assembly stage and supplying systems to the car and light truck manufacturers.Each division has its own kitchen stove of suppliers and sub-contractors to supply parts, to make adjustments or process them, and to perform primary assembly. The final assembly of the system is performed at one of the Magna division plants (Appendix A). The cross functional group (CFT) is comprised of representatives from the functional departments. These representatives are gathered from departments, such as Logistics, QC, Materials, Production, Accounting and Purchasing (Appendix B). They are assigned to the group, as CFT members, in order to deal with a specialized problem at hand.The CFT leader only has authority to gather information on the QC problems, workout possible solutions to implement with the respective cost associated with these solutions. The solutions are t indeed conveyed to the Chief Operations Officer (COO) for consideration, decision and implementation. Once the problem is resolved, CFT members resume to their respective positions and duties. Other factors with regards to QC i nclude financial danger, performance risk as advantageously as problems between business to business relationships.In terms of financial risk, if Magnas quality is not up to par, their clients demand may diminish and will import in lower revenues. Currently, the Big Three (Ford, GM, Chrysler) represent 60% of revenues, consequently it is in Magnas best interest to insure that demand does not diminish for these customers because a ripple affect will occur and Magna will also be affected by a decrease in demand and revenue. Along the kindred lines, if customers are not satisfied with the parts produced, they will find another supplier.In addition, if defective parts have to be shipped back, it poses a financial risk given that Magna is losing the potential to make a profit from those parts, representing an opportunity cost. Furthermore, there are performance risks associated with QC given that customers may purchase parts that do not function or perform as they are intended to. M oreover, if Magna is supplying dysfunctional parts it will jeopardize the relationship with their customers by diminishing the desire and loyalty that has been established over the many years of their relationship.This may result in an unfavourable image on Magnas part and will create a risk of being replaced by another supplier. As a result Magna may choose to find other companies with higher standards to outsource to and form a strategic partnership with them. To re-establish trust with their customers, they will have to provide superior performance, social ties and specific investments such as training new supplier personnel on how to produce certain parts and establish contractual agreements specifying for example the limit conditions on products and also who will be responsible for losses incurred as a result of faulty products.Thus, with this background knowledge of Magnas QC problem, we suggest two alternatives for Magna, a Dedicated Team Approach and Strong Matrix Team Appr oach. Alternatives Dedicated Team Magnas current CFT (weak matrix structure) is ineffective because the CFT leader does not possess enough authority to resolve the issue in a judgment of convictionly manner, hence cost effective. In order to achieve successful stick out completion, one of our recommendations is to implement a Dedicated Team (Appendix C). This structure is preferred when considered solely from the bulge managing directors point of view.People and assets are on the wholeocated completely to the proletariat for as long as they are needed to complete the brook. Furthermore, in a Dedicated Team, the project manager has full line authority over all the resources. This effectively sets up a separate goal-oriented department of the company, which is its own functional department. The project manager still has the problem of managing and integrating other companies and external organizations contributing to the project, but has full mastery over all the people and gro ups working on the project within his/her company.This goal-oriented structure makes planning, control and general project management simpler and easier than with other forms of organization. There can be much better integration of everyone who is involved in the project and communication between them (formal and informal) is faster, direct and frequent. Teamwork is much easier to develop and therefore creates a higher degree of commitment to the project objectives, especially when the team is permanent. participation is likely to be less than other project organization forms and if complications arise it can be solved more easily.Consequently, project teams tend to maximize the fortune of completing projects on time, within budget and to specification. Unfortunately, teams are not the most flexible way in which to use company resources. If more than one team exists in the same company, it becomes necessary to increase the numbers of specialists on the payroll because each special ist (or group of specialists) must be allocated fully to each project team for the projects life. It is usually difficult to switch specialists from one project to another to take account of day-to-day fluctuations in workload.Division of labour within functions is therefore more difficult so that a dedicated project team might have to make do with a generalist in a function where a specialist would be preferred. Therefore, although the Dedicated project team (separate divisional form of project organization) enables projects to be managed more effectively than the functional organization and it avoids some of the problems of more complex organisational forms, it can generally be used on larger projects capable of sustaining bigger functionalist groups within the team.The team structure is appropriate, therefore when a company is handling a single important project, or where one project is much more important than the others, it justifies setting up a completely separate company div ision. In that case, the size of the project and the volume of the work should be great enough to provide full time activity for each of the functional specialists or groups assigned to the project.Dedicated project teams cannot be used when a company is handling several relatively secondary projects simultaneously on a continuous basis because they would splinter up the function resources. This splintering inhibits the transfer of personnel between projects according to demand and reduces the number of projects that a company can handle for a given number of staff. Strong Matrix Team One of the reasons that Magna is experiencing problems with effectively dealing with its QC problems has to do with its organizational structure.Magna currently has in place a weak matrix system which creates problems with its reporting dimensions. The current belief is that in order to get things done in the organization there has to be a dual-reporting structure, in which one person is assigned to t wo bosses. With regard to the QC procedure Magna currently has in place, the CFT leader that has no real authority or decision making power over the problems that arise. The CFT leaders duty is simply to gather information, analyze the problem, provide solutions, and report all this to the COO.The COO discusses this information with the board of directors who decide as a whole which option to choose and then vertically pass down the information to the CFT leader. This process exerts a lot of time and every hour of idle production costs the company millions of dollars. Another issue with the current matrix structure is that employees that are part of this CFT are having a difficult time dealing with this vertical chain of authority they have to deal with their functional manager as well as their team leader. This usually results in the CRT leaders requests being left out of the equation.

Immanuel Kant Essay Example for Free

Immanuel Kant EssayHUMES FORK David Hume divides knowledge into two classes relations of ideas (i. e. tautologies) and matters of fact (i. e. confirmable statements). His book concludes (on p. 165) with the following paragraph When we run over libraries, persuaded of these principles, what havoc must we make? If we take in our hand any volume of divinity or school metaphysics, for instance let us ask, Does it contain any abstract argumentation concerning quantity of number? No.Does it contain any experimental reasoning concerning matter of fact or existence? No. Commit it then to the flames for it raft contain nonhing but sophistry and illusion. LOGICAL POSITIVISM Humes Fork was updated by modern logical positivists (such as A. J. Ayer, Antony Flew and Gilbert Ryle) who proposed the Verification Principle.This claims that sentences ar only meaningful if they are tautologies (which are unbowed because of the definitions of the terms involved, e. g.a substantive has four s ides, six is bigger than four), or if they are in some way empirically verifiable (i. e. connected with developed experience, e. g. Harold lost at Hastings, electrons are both particles and waves). Any other statements will be meaningless, because their integrity is not decided by either definitions or evidence. According to Ayer, this makes discussion about religion and morality meaningless. Religious statements like beau ideal is drive in are not false, they are incapable of being either true or false.SIX of import CONCEPTS Area Term a priori Meaning Knowable before experience, through thought alone Empirical known through experience has to be true (in all possible demesnes) capable of being either true or false tautologies statements concerned only with meanings of words statements concerned with information about the world Example five is bigger than four Problems Can anything be known without experience? (e. g. maths). Could you know something about the world a priori? C ould someone (e. g. God) know e trulything a priori? Is it possible that all truths are necessary, even empirical ones?Or is it possible that there is no such thing as a necessary truth? It may be arbitrary which terms are definitions, and which are claims about the world. We might reorganise a language so that the analytic truth became synthetic, and vice versa. Epistemology a posteriori necessary Metaphysics contingent analytic Language synthetic cars have four wheels air is a gas air contains oxygen theres a stone in my shoe triangles have three sides Hume and the Logical Positivists believe that these terms fall strictly into two groups a) a priori-necessary-analytic, and b) a posteriori-contingent-synthetic.This subject matter that if something is necessarily true, this is because it is true by definition, and can be known by thinking about it. If a statement is about the real world, then it could be false, and you need experience to know it. (This would immediately rule out the Ontological Argument for God). These empiricists claim that a priori synthetic truths are impossible, whereas rationalists like Kant think you can know things about the world just by thinking about them (e. g. maths). APPLICATION TO RELIGION Statements are only meaningful (it is claimed) if they are true by definition, or if they are empirical.So which group do statements about religion fall into? If they are only true by definition, then outsiders can give the axe them because religion is just an arbitrary game like chess. If they are empirically verifiable, then sceptical philosophers can demand to see some relevant evidence. Flews Gardener Parable (p. 225) is a demand for evidence. If none can be offered, then the claim is meaningless (not false). DEFENCES OF RELIGION The most basic vindication is to deny empiricism (consider the views of Plato, Anselm, Descartes and Kant). Logical Positivism can be attacked.Its main problems are 1) the Verification Principle cant be stated intelligibly it is either so precise that it eliminates sensible conversation, or so vague that it allows religious language 2) the Verification Principle must itself be either a tautology or empirically verifiable 3) a sentence like God is love can be proved meaningful by connecting it very vaguely and remotely with some empirical observation. BRAITHWAITES DEFENCE Braithwaite (following the later Wittgenstein) claims that language is meaningful, not if it passes the Verification Principle, but if it has an appropriate use in actual life.The main use of religious language is to express the intentions of believers. In Braithwaites view this is primarily a moral intention. Because a sentence like God is love is part of a way of life in which the speaker is committing themselves to live by love, the sentence is meaningful. HICKS DEFENCE (ESCHATOLOGICAL proof) rubes defence is that religious language is a commitment to something which will happen in the future, and so it cannot be verified now (e. g. decimals of ? not yet discovered). He tells the parable of the Celestial City (p. 26).He discusses problems with knowing in an afterlife whether religion has indeed been verified, but clearly it could be. Suppose, for example, that we confronted God, and were overwhelmed by his love? Such faith in the future may be open to other objections (why believe this? ), but the claim seems at least to be meaningful (just like Aristotles problem about the truth today of there will be a sea fight tomorrow), because Hick has shown that there is some (future) evidence which is relevant. Minimum reading The Existence of God (ed. J. Hick) pp. 217-220, 225-27, 239-41, 258-60.
