The Leviathan. The seventeenth-century political philosopher Thomas Hobbes offered a justification of political authority by imagining what life would be like without it. In one of the most famous lines in the history of Western philosophy, Hobbes (in The Leviathan) described this “state of nature” as follows:

                       [During] the time men live without a common power to keep them all in awe,

                       they are in that condition which is called war, and such a war as is of every man

                       against every man . . . In such condition there is . . . continual fear and danger of

                       violent death, and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.

The solution, according to Hobbes, is a covenant according to which people give up their right to kill and maim other people in exchange for the right not to be killed and maimed, and which at the same time establishes an overwhelming power – a Leviathan (image in 1651 book below) – to ensure that people adhere to the terms of the covenant.  Game theory offers a new way to interpret the nature of this “war of all against all.” Select one of the games we discussed in class.  (b) then use the matrix to briefly explain how The Leviathan solves the problem that surfaces in the game of nature upon which Hobbes is focused.

I need an explanation for this Business question to help me study.

According to the authors, privacy and security go hand in hand; and hence, privacy cannot be protected without implementing proper security controls and technologies. Today, organizations must make not only reasonable efforts to offer protection of privacy of data, but also must go much further as privacy breaches are damaging to its customers, reputation, and potentially could put the company out of business. As we continue learning from our various professional areas of practice, its no doubt that breaches have become an increasing concern to many businesses and their future operations.

For this discussion, find an example of a security breach which compromised data records at a company in the same industry as you will be using in your final paper(Sportswear Industry like Nike ). Summarize the breach, discuss the data that was lost and identify security controls that you would recommend be in place (be certain to remember to cite sources) that could have prevented this breach from occurring.

Note:

Using APA in discussion posts is very similar to using APA in a paper. You need to cite your sources in your discussion post both in-text and in a references section.

Essay ：Culture through Film and Television

/in /by

I’m studying for my English class and don’t understand how to answer this. Can you help me study?

All you have to do for this assignment right now is to tell me which option you think you might write about. You can simply answer with A,B, or C and then explain in a couple of sentences what you might say.

Essay : Culture through Film and Television

Choose ONE of the following:

A) Using Gabler’s essay as a framework, discuss a television series that is a “wish fulfillment” and contrast it with one that is, in your opinion, more “realistic” (For example, This is Us vs. Shameless; Jane the Virgin vs. Vida). What insights about cultural mythology can you draw from these differences? Use general summaries of the shows, specific examples of scenes and/or episodes and dialogue, and quotes/paraphrase from at least three outside sources (could be essays from our book) to support and illustrate.

B) Using the stages of the hero’s journey (monomyth), compare two films from different eras or different cultures. Analyze the connection of each film to its own time or place. In what ways do the films diverge from the hero myth? In what ways do the films show similar and/or different cultural mythologies through the monomyth? What conclusions can you draw from their similarities or differences? Use general summaries of the films, specific examples of scenes and dialogue, and quotes/paraphrase from at least three outside sources (could be essays from our book) to support and illustrate.

C) Pick a genre of film (sci-fi, horror, teen comedy, western, rom-com, super hero, etc.) and analyze at least one film from our current era (something in the last 5 years) and one film from at least one previous era (something from the 1950s-2000). Discuss their similarities (how they fit the conventions of their genre) and then discuss how their differences reflect the cultural mythologies of the eras in which they were produced. Use general summaries of the films, specific examples of scenes and dialogue, and quotes/paraphrase from at least three outside sources (could be essays from our book) to support and illustrate. (Note: You could also do this with TV shows).

Essay should be 5-6 double-spaced pages in MLA format and a Works Cited page. You must use at least one quote from at least three different outside sources (could be essays from our book).

  • Should have a title that states topic and hints at thesis.
  • Introduction should begin with 3-5 sentences introducing the topic of how television and film reflect and/or distort social reality.
  • A thesis statement should end the introduction making an analytical argument—that is detailed, developed, and dynamic—about the particular shows or films you will be discussing.
  • Body paragraphs should begin with clearly articulated topic sentences that develop individual points helping to support your overall thesis.
  • Evidence should describe the shows/films and be connected to quotes, paraphrase, and/or summary from outside sources (could be essays from the book).
  • Conclusion should bring these individual points back to the overall thesis and make it clear what the implications are between the differences you pointed out in the shows or films.

Essays should follow MLA style and format (see Hacker or look it up online): typed, double-spaced, 12-point Times New Roman font, with 1” margins all around.

Revision: English 1C: Critical Thinking (7 – 7 1/2 pages)

/in /by

Please use the essay in the attachment to make revisions.

Note:

Needs to include one more academic source (so 4 academic sources in total, so just a bit more research) (sorry for not mentioning this earlier)

My teacher does not want paraphrasing (again sorry). He wants us to incorporate quotes only and analyze them in detail (Maybe how it relates to other things).

And also introduce quotes.

(In Nietzsche’s essay, he discusses “…“)

In (full name)’s study of … when he did … he explains “…” ().

Intro:

Good introduction

Teacher does not want sentences like “in the case of this essay” or “… is suitable for the essay”

Teacher asks to give a brief context background of Nietzsche’s essay and relate it to how immigrants or cultures can be seen in the context of Nietzsche’s story

For thesis, exclude the first part “However, the main aim is not to show that …:”

Thesis needs to be more COMPLEX and well developed. (maybe show a relation.)

It could be “Immigrants are affected by the foreign culture once they land in another country due to … (topic)”

Or “Immigration being affected by a foreign culture (can be seen as / relate to ) Nietzsche’s interpretation of … ,where…”

Just to clarify: No quotes are needed in the intro

2nd Paragraph:

I get that it’s like a context paragraph. But please use a quote from Nietzsche or an academic source, and analyze it in detail to turn it into a well developed body paragraph.

(look at my advice on paragraph 3 before doing this)

3rd Paragraph:

My teacher’s take on elaborating on quotes and analysis. Don’t assume the reader will understand what the quote(and the analysis) is saying. Explain it your own words what the quote means in this context (or maybe another context) After the quote, you can say like, “in this context this means” or “Nietzsche’s interpretation on… shows that”

For the analysis part, the ideas were really interesting but there were some parts that needs more clarification and expanding.

For “There is a need to know that there is no evil of …” please clarify on that sentence

For “One of the best lessons which can be learned… “ please explain a bit more on that idea

(how do the U.S. citizens influence the immigrants to adapt to their culture) or (why do they tend to keep their own culture?)

4th Paragraph:

Topic Sentence:

Be more specific instead of saying “there is a value”

Please make only the first sentence a complex, and declarative statement about the rest of the paragraph. Exclude “there is a need to look at…” or “without looking much into”

I see that the 1st and 2nd sentences are the topics sentences, but please make it into one.

For “There are different reasons like fitting in…” sentence a little awkward, a bit confusing

Please explain what Nietzsche’s quote by itself first. I see your analysis of globalization is very well put in the context of Nietzsche’s quote(keep that part). But please interpret Nietzsche’s quote by itself immediately after the quote and then go into globalization.

5th Paragraph:

My teacher puts a lot of emphasis onto topic sentences. It needs to be declarative, precise, and give a solid statement of what the rest of the paragraph is talking about. Slavery could be introduced later on in the in the paragraph. I wouldn’t include the slavery part in the topic sentence.

Again, no paraphrasing please. Introduce a quote thoroughly from Moran and interpret it first and then relate it to the topic. The interpretation of the paraphrase was really good.

Also the interpretation of Nietzsche’s quote was very good. Every quote should be analyzed like that.

6th Paragraph:

For “Research shows that…” which researcher? And please do not include a quote or paraphrase in the topic sentence.

Please properly introduce the quote “language as we saw…”  and interpret give it some context before going into the tree analogy. The tree analogy was really good by the way.

7th Paragraph:

Please incorporate a quote into the paragraph.

The requirement says to have at least one quote in each body paragraph.

Maybe you can use the source where you got the info for “For example, when some of the children from the Hispanic origin…”

Introduce quote

The analysis portion was really good, seriously

8th Paragraph:

Nice topic sentence

Do not use the word “you” (I fixed it)

Although you did analyze a lot of points before the Nietzsche quote. There needs to be more analysis after the quote as well. At least 3 sentences. Please 🙂

9th Paragraph:

No paraphrasing please. Please use quote from Huntington.

For “However, when a person drops the original culture and picks the foreign culture, he or she is seen as a slave.” how? I don’t’ get it and it’s shocking. Please rewrite that part in another way.

Introduce nietzsche’s quote

The analysis needs work. (Nietzsche describes metaphors as being used to form concepts that allows humans to learn or understand the world from their perspective)

Conclusion:

Does not need to include quote

Please elaborate just a little bit on how “Doing so is close to impossible”

Essay: In general, please be specific as possible. If you’re making a general statement please elaborate to the reader.

Final Note: I have to turn in the final draft of this essay on 8/3/17 Thursday 10:30am. Please have the essay for me at 10:00am as the absolute latest time. Taking consideration of the limited amount of time (less than 12 hrs) and things I wrote above, I’m willing to pay $25 for the revision for this essay. But please do a good job 🙂 I really appreciate your work and your effort. Thank you.

Your company has estimated its total cost to be TC = 7000 + 0.05Q + 0.0015Q2; its marginal cost is thus MC = 0.05 + 0.003Q, where Q is the quantity of units produced and TC is in dollars. Since your market is relatively competitive, your company is able to sell its output for $13.55 each (which thus yields MR = 13.55 and TR = 13.55Q).a.  Produce a chart in Excel showing TC and TR with Q on the horizontal axis. Have Q go from 0 to 10,000 units. Produce a second chart showing MC and MR with Q again on the horizontal axis.b.  What is the optimal level of output for your company to produce/sell? What is the marginal revenue from the last unit sold?c.  What are the total revenue, total cost, and profit (net benefit/net revenue/etc.) from selling the optimal number of units?

d.  An eager intern at your company suggests that, since the company earns $13.55 revenue for each unit sold, then the company could make still more profit by selling more than the level chosen in part b; why would company not want to produce and sell more output than the level chose in part b?
