Statistics show that education is one of the most important factors in landing a better job. This is why more and more people are attending schools of higher education. In my opinion, colleges in particular and schools in general do two things well. First, they help a person think critically. So, even if you don't actually use what you have learned in college in the real world, school will help. How many times have you heard people say, "I've...

In general, the higher one's level of education, the better one's chances of getting and keeping a good job. For example, according to the New York Times' website this past week, women with a college degree have only about half the rate of unemployment (right now during this recession) that women with only a high school diploma have (I believe the numbers were 4.2% compared to 8.8) In most careers, communication skills are vital. In order...

First of all, it is important to know that Zithromax or Azithromycin (known as azalide, which has nitrogen in the macrolide ring) is an antibiotic from the macrolide subclass (see also erythromycin)which is given to someone who is allergic to penicillin. It is used also for moderate infections(pneumonia,pharyngitis,strep throat) , Zithromax not being a first line antibiotic, but becoming one, when penicillin administation is impossible. It...

CEO of ABC Company has observed inefficiency of staff members. He doesn’t want to fire people from the company and also the objective is to increase the efficiency rather to decrease the cost. Some advisors advise CEO to hire more people to overcome this problem and some are saying that existing staff needs training and development. The matter of fact is that the existing staff is capable enough and has the ability to perform better. But...

Characteristic feature of jaundice, yellowing of skin and eyes, is caused by excess bilirubin in the blood. Bilirubin is a natural byproduct of the destruction of "used" or death red blood cells, infants tend to produce large amounts of bilirubin, as the have, in the first weeks of life, one too many red blood cells (a child needs many more red blood cells during intrauterine until after delivery). Normally, bilirubin is metabolized in the...

What about the execution of John Muhammed, better known as the DC Sniper? He sat on death row for a relatively short time. Some people have been there for decades, but it has been just 7 years since he was convicted. You might want to explore why there was no appeal or how the laws in Virginia differ from those of other states when it comes to capital punishment.

Plagiarism is trying to pass off some one else's ideas and written work as your own. It amounts to intellectual dishonesty and often attracts the severest penalties. Joseph Gibaldi and Walter S. Achtert in "The MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers" define plagiarism as, "the act of using another person's ideas or expressions in your writing without acknowledging the source." There's no need to be confused at all. In order to avoid...

This is an important question and needs to be spelled out. Plagiarism is taking another person's words or thoughts without acknowledgement. The most common forms are plagiarism are as follows: 1. Directly taking a quote from another person's work without direct quotations and acknowledgement. 2. Even if you summarize or paraphrase another person's work in your own words, you need to cite where you got this information. 3. If a person coined...

This is a fairly common question about the nature of plagiarism. The established understanding about it is that work is plagiarized if it has been copied from someone else and presented as your own work (see link below.) That being said, there seems to be a line about where to cite and where one does not have to cite. I think this might be the area that is open to interpretation. The obvious way to receive clarification on the issue is...

I am confused about Plagiarism. Most things are learnt through reading. Does this mean you are commiting plagiarism because you have read it?

Focus on a single aspect of the novel. Perhaps a good topic would be the fire. What is it? Why is it so important to Ralph and Piggy especially? What is Jack's original attitude toward the fire? How does that attitude change? What does the fire represent for Ralph and Piggy? How is it later used by Jack and his group? The fire is one of the central symbols of the novel. Again and again, its importance to the boys is emphasized. It is hope of...

Of course to most people someone who speaks with an accent makes somewhat of a bad impression. But it's not something that can't be overcome. My father has something of a Filipino accent even after being here since 1960 and it does hurt him in terms of being taken seriously. But while it did hurt at times, it didn't keep him from having a good career. No matter what things should be like, I think it's inevitable (and not an American...
