The Worlds Most Endangered Frogs

Frogs are the most numerous of the worlds amphibians, but they are rapidly declining, and many species are actually facing the imminent threat of extinction. Pollution, global warming, and habitat destruction from human development have already taken a serious toll, reports Animal Planet. Frogs, in particular, have suffered, having lost an estimated 170 species in the last 10 years alone. Frogs are also affected by a singular danger that is threatening their populations worldwide: the chytrid fungus, which coats frogs skin and seals out vital moisture and kills frogs by dehydration.

Atrocious Aftermath of Bullying - 833 Words

Imagine you are on your way home to your sister’s â€Å"Sweet 16† birthday party. You brought her a secret present and are excited to show it to her. You walk into her room thrilled to â€Å"pop the surprise† and instead of her being joyfully surprised, you become depressed with sadness that she hung herself from the ceiling fan. These kinds of disparities happen often due to bullying. Bullying should be dealt with to avoid the negative and morose consequences that can affect an individual’s life. Bullying should not be dealt with because a bully free society is not attainable. Some say that reaching a bully free society is not viable because to do so you must reach a â€Å"Utopia† which is â€Å"unrealistic and unachievable† (Kalman). Unfortunately, a â€Å"Utopia† is not achievable, so we must deal with bullying with all our strength and potential to prevent it from happening. A bully-free Utopia is impossible because bullying has become â€Å"the norm† and has grown to be recognized as â€Å"socially acceptable† (Casserly). Since a bully-free Utopia is unattainable we must use all measures to stop bullying from occurring and spreading like â€Å"wildfire†. Contrasting to why a Utopia is not possible, â€Å"Ladakh, is a region in which there is no bullying.† However, Ladakh is not a true Utopia (in which death is not present); it is a bully-free Utopia. A bully-free society can be created by practicing â€Å"wisdom† and â€Å"moral principles† (Kalman).

Since 1998 there have been armed conflicts involving child soldiers in at least 36 countries. However, the traumatic scars left on children are just one of a vast aftermath of post war problems: refugees, food shortages and mourning for lost relatives. Former Child Soldiers may at best have their needs forgotten and at worst be blamed by their communities for what happened. Children from poor and disadvantaged families

Photography in Criteria Structural Nature

Question: Discuss about the Photography in Criteria Structural Nature. Answer: Introduction: Photography has been viewed as the mechanical form of reproduction with the undergoing immersed debates in the respective cultures. It emerges with the modernism that has been always conscious of the engagement and the culture that is popular in these criteria. There have been found to be some relationships that are uneasy and have challenges to the authorship in the originality and the rise I the mass reproduction. (Jake, 2012) said the scope that has been applied is aura photography with the capability of enhancing the scientific photo practices and the interpretation of the results as well. Photography in the late 1980s was conducted in a protagonist manner and thus the scope adopted is of modernity in nature and applied the dominant ideology hence the camera has another suggestion pertaining to the psychoanalysis and the theory of the metaphor as well as the review of false identities. The narcissism of the regarded pose has a different suggestion that the power relationship involved in the photographic process adopts an approach of the hunter and the prey hence the person being shot by the individual known as the photographer may not always be in the role of the victim. The photography is seen as the metaphor incorporating the desire and the capacity that enhances the productivity to preserve the memory which is not regarded in a wide scope by the freeze framed moment that produces and image of deathlike nature. The context views photography as the process which is very unique and analogue thus representation of the event is cumbersome in front of the lens and the transferred light of the reactions of chemical in nature. The adopted methodology in the photography is known as the indexical nature of the photograph which has been given raise to both the discourses of the scientific nature as well as the magical. George, (2014) said the ideologies of the nature of human being in this context have been well incorporated. Photography takes the mechanical reproduction which has been discussed and predicated on the mimesis thus promising to reproduce would be reality prevailing at that particular moment. The representations are given a date with reference to the modernity approach of the Avant grade where the fractured and alienated visions are known to be characteristic of the modern life. The cameras ability to reproduce the geometric space makes it so appealing in the context of the photographer who vies the subject that is being undertaken or pursed. The images captured and derived in photography are intimately tied up within the nexus of desire and the given memory. The knowledge is used and the predicated memory to recognize the mechanical approach that tis perpetuated in the ideology. (Festus, 2012) said the photography in these criteria is the structural nature of the given aspect of the paradigms and thus it undergoes a number of various modifications in order to pair the images and produce the conceptual modernity in the images. The conflict exists where there is no contemporaries seeking to see the representation of the psychological conflict hence the through the representations the object body is put into the considerations. The instances in which the art of photography was used performativity are clearly shown and hence the productive tool for individuals are well illustrated as well as the matters of state authorities. There is also inscription of the positions that cannot be contested in any manner thus the same elements tend to make photography cumbersome. The same elements make the weapon to be used in photography and thus it is readily available to anyone who uses photography to write positions and the deacon structure potential.(Luke, 2013) said the person has been seen to me making the motions of graphics in nature which results to an unclear shadow behind the picture.

Marketing Tools At Work Essays - Marketing, Advertising, Juice

Marketing Tools At Work Juice Stop : Marketing Tools at Work The Juice Stop is a small local franchise of a large national network of stores. Juice Stop specializes in twenty four ounce, custom made frozen smoothies, fresh juices and healthy snacks . Juice Stop customizes their blends exactly to the customers' tastes. The Juice Stop is a quality driven place. The quality of the product is what makes the Juice Stop experience memorable. The non-fat yogurts and sherberts are made especially for the Juice Stop from the brand leader in frozen dessert's Edy's Ice Cream. juice stop has also refined their juice formulations by continually meeting with their growers to ensure only the most succulent fruits are picked to ensure a natural high quality product. The Juice Stop employed four main areas of marketing to help increase sales. They were: advertising, promotions, philanthropy, and publicity. In fall of 1998 the Juice Stop was a business that was losing money. The brake even point was around five hundred and thirty dollars a day to recoup operating costs. Unfortunately the Juice Stop was only making around four hundred and twenty-five dollars a day, and therefore losing money. December of 1998 saw a management change and with it a change in the way marketing was handled. What resulted was seven hundred and ten dollar average sales per day. A simple change in strategy resulted in a highly profitable business. The most important thing to consider is the target market of our products. The market for the Juice Stop is fairly wide. The location of the corner of 13th street and University Drive across from the University of Florida make it ideal to target foot traffic from the university, including both faculty and students. Other targets are the athletic and health conscious, as well as the local non-student population around Gainesville. The local non-student market is important because in the summer the amount of students goes down by seventy-five percent. Those making the local population important for summer profits. Advertising dollars for a small business are limited and so choosing where and when to advertise are important strategic decisions. One of the first and most important places to advertise in Gainesville is the Alligator. The Alligator is the most read newspaper in Gainesville, and there target audience is almost exclusively the University of Florida student body, which is the same target audience as the Juice Stop, thus it is a highly effective advertising tool. The Juice Stop chose to run a small two inch by two inch ad three times a week in the Alligator for ten weeks at the beginning of the spring semester. Even though the ad was small , because of the large readership business seemed to pick up as a result. (See visual aid number 1). The Juice Stop also chose to advertise in a local lifestyle magazine called Moon. Moon reaches the same target audience but is more focused on alternative lifestyles i.e. vegetarians and vegans (people who don't eat any animal products such as milk or eggs in addition to meat). Which makes the Juice Stop a great place for them to go. The ads in Moon were large half page ads and also included a coupon in the ad. The response we got from the ad 2 was measured in part by how many coupons we received back. The number was quite large, again proving the ad and strategy behind it was a success. (See visual aid number 3). A third innovative advertising attempt was made on the cutting edge of the world wide web. The Juice Stop bought a banner on a web page called collegestudent.com. This web page was designed for college students, with chat rooms ,post boards and even personals specific to each college. According to studies the average college student spends 3.2 hours online each day, to write reports or check e-mail or even just to surf the Internet. The cheap cost of the banner was another reason for choosing this site. The site charged by how many hits that page got. as a result you are only paying for people who see the site and the ad. The web page also printed five hundred tee shirts with our
