Critical Reasoning 1. Narrative This is a comical episode narrated by a rat. There is no real argument except for the reverse health premise that if rats are bitten by fleas that have bitten infected people, then the conclusion is that rats have reason to worry. Although it is nothing more than narrative, it is constructed on the premise that rats face many hazards. 2. Argument This has a firm conclusion, stated first, that Mr. Harper is less arrogant.

Abstract
This paper discusses that, when most people observe aspects of an issue that they are studying, it is often difficult not to come up with certain generalizations regarding aspects of a society. The author believes that, through their observations and studies, Geertz and Moore are able to find some in-depth looks at the societies they study; but they come up with some general conclusions in a scientific way, without enough evidence to support them.
From the Paper
"Through applying certain anthropological methods, Clifford Geertz makes some strong points in his study of the Balinese cockfights. In order for him to study appropriately the Balinese cockfights, it was essential for him to become more of a part of the Balinese culture. Only by this can an anthropologist obtain a better understanding and a more in-depth perspective of a certain aspect of a society. Most people that would observe the cockfights would view it as a spectator sport, without much meaning behind the activity. After all, the Balinese government ruled the cockfights illegal and was ashamed that the fights were part of the Balinese culture."

Abstract
This paper looks at the conclusions drawn up by Landes regarding the distribution of wealth between modern nations. It shows how Landes claims that current inequality between the rich and poor nations of the world stems directly from the industrial revolution, in which some countries made the leap to industrialization and became extremely rich, while other countries failed to adapt and remained poor. His theory of world economics is analyzed as it relates to his opinion on the distribution of wealth.
From the Paper
"Landes concludes that the achievements of Western nations are rooted in culture, rather than just technology. Therefore, he believes they could have taken place nowhere else because technology itself is just a product of culture. The values that produced scientific and industrial progress also produced the entire culture of modernity. Because of these values, Landes says, Western civilization provided better for its people than any other."

Abstract
In this article the writer examines a 4-H study and discusses that role conflict exists between educators in the Cornell Cooperative Extension Service and the organization. The writer points out that according to the study, educators aim to ensure that community needs are met, yet the organization denies many programs essential to community need. Further, the writer notes that although educators are significant in the implementation of programs, they feel that their main roles as educators are being ignored. The writer highlights that the study provides evidence that this contention had a basis in fact, and that educators were experiencing role conflict within the program. Further, the writer points out that the role conflict is evident within the community in which the need existed for programs in the areas of teen pregnancy, violence and drug use.
From the Paper
"In regard to methodology, it was contended that role conflict existed between educators in the Cornell Cooperative Extension Service and the organization. The hypothesis contended that educators believed that their mission within the organization was to ensure that the needs of all community members were met; yet, the organization denied many programs essential to community need. It was further contended that while educators were significant in the implementation of programs approved by Cornell Cooperative Extension, these professionals felt that their primary roles as educators were being ignored."

Abstract
This paper traces the history of the controversial music sharing internet provider, Napster. The bulk of the paper is an actual timeline that literally moves from month to month covering the major developments in the case. A conclusion is offered along with short biographies.
From the Paper
"Napster was established in May of 1999 by 19-year-old Shawn Fanning, 20-year- old Sean Parker, and 23-year-old Jordan Ritter. The program was designed by Fanning so that users could share MP3 music files online, using free software that the user downloads from the Napster website. Napster users share MP3 files online and store downloaded files on their computers for playback at their convenience. This is called peer-to-peer sharing. Napster allows users to search the hard drives of other users for files that they wish to download. The program provides technical support for the indexing and searching of MP3 files, and also provides chat rooms where users can talk to one another while searching for their files."

Abstract
Both Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) and retailers with an Internet presence have struggled over how and when to release information to the public regarding security vulnerabilities and/or security breaches. This paper examines this debate and provides a potential conclusion.
From the Paper
"In the modern age of information technology, security services and solutions are at the core of any organization's or Independent Software Vendor's (ISV) information technology strategy. Security is a baseline and absolute requirement for maintenance of an IT solution, yet it is often also one of the most difficult and dynamic components that IT managers have to contend with. In the past several years, reports of security vulnerabilities and associated attacks have reached ever increasing levels. Interestingly, most attacks occur after security vulnerability has been reported and a patch made available by an ISV."

From the Paper
"The United States, compared with all developed countries of the world, has one of the highest per capita pregnancy rates of teenagers (King, 2005). According to data posted on the March of Dimes website, the number of teenage girls that become pregnant each year is about 860,000. Although the statistics are alarming, evidence of a change in the trend is apparent. The National Center for Health Statistics of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention produced data revealing a 23% decline in birth rates of unmarried teenagers in the past decade (King, 2005). This report will explore a specific influence that has affected the declining trend. Two hypotheses will be presented as support along with a description and analysis of the hypothesis testing."

From the Paper
"A portion of elite opinion in the United States has taken a strong stand against what they label as "immigrant-baiting." For example, Business Week (Oct. 14, 1996) has argued that it is as loathsome as race-baiting and is often used for ugly political purposes. The magazine believes that stigmatizing immigrants cannot be tolerated. A think-tank in the state of California released a comprehensive report entitled "Why They Count: Immigrants Contributions to the Golden State." This report was intended to address the rising tide of anti-immigrant sentiment in the state of California through the presentation of what the report labeled as factual and education information on the historical and modern-day contributions of California immigrants..."
