Abstract
In this paper, King proposes healthy and communicative responses to management strata relationships that were successful within his own experiences. According to the paper, King's view is that the use of dialogues and meetings is a crucial for efficient production, which invariably offers a revolving leadership system through his is symbolic usage of moving chairs. However, more studies should be done to evaluate the real effectiveness of this form of leadership before one should confront the authority of middle and upper management.
From the Paper
J. Timothy King provides an article that is based upon the "moving chairs" of leadership within a small sized corporate atmosphere. The first premise of leadership is many things go unnoticed, especially when communicating a change in management policy. King is often portraying himself in the article as a subordinate that has to work with upper management through a review based initiative that is often erroneous. However, King brings the moving chair element into communicating with his superiors within the review process, which ultimately has him influencing how policy is made within the company. In this manner, King is subjectively redefining the hierarchical role of worker/manager by breaking down barriers through communication and regular meetings. "

From the Paper
"Glenn, Brown, and O'Leary (1998) conducted an experimental study to find and develop crops which could be irrigated by seawater. As the population of the earth increases, the production of food becomes more and more of a problem in order to feed this growing number of people. One of the specific problems facing agriculturalists is the need for water. Fresh water is needed not only for irrigation but also for other human activities, and there is no process that is effective enough at desalinization to provide the volume of water human beings need. The authors also note that the top five plants eaten by people cannot tolerate salt, and these are wheat, corn, rice, potatoes, and soybeans. Since finding enough land and water to produce the foods needed by the world is an urgent problem, the authors ask how the supply of food can be augmented. They answer that one ..."

Timothy George's "The Theology of the Reformers", 2006.

Abstract
This paper explains that, in his book "The Theology of the Reformers", Timothy George does not avoid presenting difficulties to believers but assists the reader in gaining faith and knowledge of God through the reformers. The author presents in detail the lives and beliefs of Martin Luther, Huldrych Zwinglu, who is considered the most important reformer in the Swiss Protestant Reformation and the only major reformer of the 16th century whose movement did not evolve into a church, and Menno Simons, who is the founder of a loosely related group of Reformation believers known today as Mennonites. The paper states that all three reformers were presented in a sympathetic light; however, George does not stop from showing the reformers belligerently holding on to their divisive approaches to the sacraments, when compromise or at least temporary concession may have been better for the church at large.
Table of Contents:
Introduction
Martin Luther
Huldrych Zwingli
Menno Simons
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Martin Luther was a Christian theologian and Augustinian monk whose teachings inspired the Protestant Reformation and deeply influenced the doctrines of Protestant and other Christian traditions. Martin Luther was born to Hans and Margaretha Luder on 10 November 1483 in Eisleben, Germany and was baptized the next day on the feast of St. Martin of Tours. Luther's call to the Church to return to the teachings of the Bible resulted in the formation of new traditions within Christianity and the Counter-Reformation in the Roman Catholic Church, culminating at the Council of Trent."

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that 2 Tim 4:2 teaches us how to live in this world. The writer maintains that it is a proactive passage, one that focuses on the footwork we must do to help create God's kingdom on earth. The writer points out that we are urged to speak with and from our heart of hearts the good news of the gospel. Further, the writer suggest that to be instant suggests spontaneity: the joy that derives from expressing the instantaneous glory of God. Moreover, the writer claims that we become instantly available as reliable messengers. In addition, the writer believes that the people around us respond when we come from the heart and thus we help spread the gospel.
From the Paper
"Out of season we become willing to swim against the tide, delivering the word of God even when it seems no one is listening or even that no one cares. In the current day and age, the moral and spiritual climate may appear out of season. It is in times like these that our work is most important. Being instant in this case signifies swiftness of spirit: the willingness to jump at any available opportunity to offer aid or assistance in the name of Christ. Though the gospel may be out of season, out of fashion, or out of place, the word of God still resonates within you. Therefore, preaching the word and being instant in season and out of season entails both inner and outer work. In the world, we take these words literally by speaking frankly about the gospel of Christ. For ourselves, we read, we re-read, and we re-apply the principles of the gospel in everything we do, say, and think. Even when you do not preach formally you can still be a role model that proves how God works through mankind."

From the Paper
"This book report is based on Making Gray Gold: Narratives of Nursing Home Care by Timothy Diamond. The book was published by The University of Chicago Press. It consists of 280 pages, including index.
The main theme of Making Gray Gold is that nursing homes are bureaucratic institutions that could use a healthy dose of "mother's wit." Mother's wit describes the maternal feelings and interpersonal skills needed by all persons who give primary care to the elderly: "Mother's wit is not an abstract concept or a set of ideas; it is the wide range of practices that hold the organization together" (241). Nursing is a caring profession, and nowhere is compassion and insight more needed than in the sterile environment of the nursing home. As Diamond's instructor advised him, "You have to look into a patient's eyes as much as ..."

Anomie and Alienation and Timothy McVeigh
The Oklahoma City terrorist bombing on April 19, 1995, represents a seminal event in recent American history; together with the earlier bombing of New York's World Trade Center, Oklahoma City demonstrated to Americans that as a people, we are not exempt from terrorist attacks. The purpose of this essay is to examine the activities and attitudes of Timothy McVeigh, the man found guilty of planning and executing the Oklahoma City attack, from the perspective of sociological theory. McVeigh's life and his behavior lend themselves to such an analysis, particularly with regard to the theory of anomie as described by, among others, Robert Merton (1957). McVeigh has been.."

"The Worm in the Wheat", 2006.
A critical overview of Timothy J. Henderson's "The Worm in the Wheat: Rosalie Evans and Agrarian Struggle in the Puebla-Tlaxcala Valley of Mexico, 1906-1927".

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In his book "The Worm in the Wheat: Rosalie Evans and Agrarian Struggle in the Puebla-Tlaxcala Valley of Mexico, 1906-1927", Timothy Henderson recounts the story of the American Rosalie Evans who sought to prevent her family's Mexican hacienda from being overrun in the Mexican Revolution. The paper argues that while the book is a pleasure to read, that pleasure is in part derived from Henderson dramatizing events. It also shows that the plight of both Evans and the campesinos is acknowledged, but only Evans' plight is sympathized with.
From the Paper
"Henderson is aware that history is not right versus wrong. Although he describes Evans as "brave, intelligent, determined, and even compassionate," Henderson is also aware that "she was obstinate, bigoted, selfish, self-righteous, and prepared to bend the facts" (2). Clearly, Evans was no angel, but neither was she a demon. She had a legal right to the land she was trying to prevent the peasants from overrunning. At the same time, conditions on the haciendas were notoriously poor, including on Evans'. There is no denying the fact that the campesinos who worked on the haciendas of people like Evans were exploited. Henderson does pay lip service to the plight of the peasants and to the negative side of Evans' personality." "

The Electric Chair, 2004.
An analysis of the social implications and humaneness of the electric chair.
2,241 words (approx. 9.0 pages), 10 sources, MLA, $ 69.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper asserts that, although more humane than the often inefficient hangings that caused death by strangulation, the electric chair is far from painless and instantaneous. In addition, the paper discusses several social implications of the implementation of the electric chair. To support these hypotheses, the means of execution prior to the electric chair are examined, as is the history of the electric chair itself.
Outline
Introduction
Means of Execution Prior to the Electric Chair
History of Electric Chair
Is the Electric Chair a More Humane Method of Execution?
Social Implications of the Electric Chair
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Prior to 1890, most state laws allowed for capital punishment, typically by hanging. "Execution by hanging was a grim, hands-on business. (...) It took a strong stomach indeed to wrap a noose around the condemned man, then let him drop through a gallows trapdoor to choke and gasp and swing until he died" (Blackwell). Due to the inexperience and ignorance of many hangmen, hangings often produced horrifyingly slow, strangulations death, and grisly decapitations ("The History") as opposed to the quick, breaking of the neck that the process was supposed to incur."

T.S. Eliot's "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock", 2005.

Abstract
This paper provides an analysis of the character of J. Alfred Prufrock in T.S. Eliot's poem "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock". The paper depicts Prufrock's fears, insecurities and views in the society he lives in and uses quotes and lines from the poem to support the analysis.
From the Paper
"J. Alfred Prufrock, the main character in the poem "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock", by T.S. Eliot, appears to be an unhappy man aware of his weaknesses and riddled with self doubts. Prufrock is portrayed as someone who is in despair and helpless. He feels as if he has never accomplished anything in his life and is painfully aware of his failures: "For I have known them all already, known them all:/ Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,/ I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;/ I know the voices dying with a dying fall/ Beneath the music from a farther room/ So how should I presume?" (Eliot, 1917, Lines 55-60). This awareness of his failures is what puts Prufrock in despair: "But though I have wept and fasted, wept and prayed,/ Though I have seen my head [grown slightly bald] brought in upon a platter,/ I am no prophet-and here's no great matter." (Eliot, 1917, Lines 87-89). He mocks himself for being too weak and too helpless to turn his life around. This very helplessness fills him with panic and despair: "When I am pinned and wriggling on the wall,/ Then how should I begin/ To spit out all the butt-ends of my days and ways?/ And how should I presume?" (Eliot, 1917, Lines 64-67). Prufrock, to put it bluntly, is clueless on how to start over and to pick up the pieces. He perceives himself as doomed to his fate: "Till human voices wake us, and we drown." (Eliot, 1917, Line 138), "I do not think they will sing to me." (Eliot, 1917, Line 131)."
