Text Follows:

Bouncing off the walls!

Anyone with a child has said this phrase, as the child runs around, refusing to pay attention or listen. And everyone has had a day or two when they just can't focus. But for someone with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, otherwise known as ADHD, every day is like that. It's like the difference between having the blues and major depression. Everyone feels sad, but not everyone is incapacitated by depression. Everyone has a day or two when they just can't get it together. But that doesn't mean they have ADHD.

So what is…...

Speech on How to Save Energy
Specific purpose: To inform listeners how energy-saving devices help the planet and consumers' ability to save money.

Central idea: Saving energy can help you -- and the planet

Informative speech: How to save energy

Everyone wants to save money. Yet many of us are wasting money without even realizing it. When you leave the room, do you get any additional pleasure from leaving the light on while you are gone? Do you enjoy having your computer running in your absence? Probably these decisions make little difference to you, and you would prefer to save money rather than needlessly waste power. Bad habits and thoughtlessness are often the source of how and why we waste energy. This speech will provide you with suggestions about how to save energy, demonstrate how it is financially advantageous to 'go green,' and suggest future lifestyle changes to save energy.

Making small changes can…...

To inform the audience about the two sides of the debate on the death penalty, regarding its justice and its deterrent effect.

The death penalty is one of the most frequently-debated topics in American criminal justice, and it is important to understand both sides of the death penalty debate.

Organizational Pattern: Topical

Attention getter- America is the only major industrialized democracy that still has the death penalty. "Of the 197 countries in the world, 135 (69%) have abolished the death penalty in law or practice and only 62 (31%) continue to use capital punishment" (Support for the death penalty continues to decline, 2013, Arkansas Abolish).

Today's documentaries have the qualities of feature films -- cinematography, suspense, captivating personalities, funny parts, and in some cases, special effects. If you want to learn about a topic, but don't have time to read a book on the issue, a documentary can be a valuable resource, as within one to two hours you can gain almost as much understanding as you would from reading a book. In addition, documentaries are wonderful ways to understand topics that are more audio-visual in nature, such as how animals move, mate, hunt, and act. While you could read about a lion pouncing on it's pray in a book, even looking at pictures of the lion, a documentary lets you see the anticipation in the lion's eye and the frightening majesty of the lion as it growls and pounces on its prey. If you can't be with a lion as it pounces, a…...

Although a persuasive speech may include emotional words, imagery, and other tools that are not strictly logical, for the speech to be effective (at least, effective in persuading persons other than persons who are already converted to the speaker's point-of-view), the speech must be based on some sound rationale. The Hope uses evidence from the Bible, archeological evidence, and also logical and persuasive reasoning to convince the listener about the Bible's truth.
The Hope also strives to answer many common questions that even uncertain believers articulate regarding their faith, such as why God allows suffering to occur and why terrible things such as cancer are allowed to exist. The film suggests that although the world may fundamentally be fallen, God still offers hope and the possibility of redemption. The end of the Hope stresses the need for the listener to go to church and fully participate in a faith community…...

Again, the worries may be legitimate, but the level of preoccupation is often obsessive and inhibits the quality of the person's life. Often, difficulty sleeping, a racing pulse, hot flashes, and nausea accompany the sufferer's vague sense of impending doom.
Transition) So that quirky aunt or grandmother who always sees death around every corner isn't just 'eccentric' -- she may have a mental health complaint that is inhibiting the quality of her life even though she doesn't admit it to herself.

Main point III. GAD is common but treatable.

Sub-point A. GAD affects about 6.8 million adult Americans and about twice as many women as men, estimates the National Institute of Mental Health. Often the condition starts slowly, as a personality pattern or quirk, but gradually spirals out of control. Sufferers are usually able to hold down a job and function normally, but that doesn't mean that they shouldn't seek help.

In November they started making their upset known to diverse government officials. However for economic and political causes the prime minister along with his supporters could not disregard these commercial distress indications. In addition ockingham and his chief financial minister, Edmund Burke and William Dowdeswell were assured that colonial reactions to the Stamp Act accounted for the recent turn down in British trade to North America and during 1765 British sells to America had descended by 15%. These identical men were also sure they might capitalize on the political prospect the stamp tax crisis obtainable.

Technology elated Decision Making in Organizations:

The University of Cincinnati as an Institutional Example

The implementation of any new technology within an organization forces change on many levels. While technological changes are made within an organization to enhance that organization's core work functions, related policies, administrative functions, and these changes essentially trickle-down in a way that leaves the entire organization affected in the end. For any organization, new technology means new training, as any new technological additions cannot perform to their full advantage without the proficient skill-set of that organization's members. In researching the IT governance structure, it is most beneficial to cite a distinct example of an organization in which this structure is consistently used, evaluated and adjusted. In viewing the IT governance structure present in the University of Cincinnati, and in viewing the accompanying research present on the topic, one can more easily pinpoint the University's strengths,…...

Othello
Aristotle's Poetics is the most informative piece of work on the nature of art. It is in the Poetics that Aristotle defines the fundamental nature of tragedy. For Aristotle, what defines tragedy (and all art, in general) is in the way that it is imitation (Golden 142). Every form of art (qua imitation) can be compared in terms of the artistic means, object, and manner used in their creation. In the tragic form, imitation is made of a very controlled process where the different elements of action and character lead the spectator to have a certain insight into the meaning of what it is to be human (142). In trying to understand Aristotle's view on art, it is important to understand that it is "based on an equation of poetry with the process of representation, and not on any accidental quality such as meter" (142). Poetry comes thus from a…...

oeing is considered the leader in commercial aircraft, military aircraft and missiles and space markets. As well as the design, development and manufacture of aircraft and space equipment, oeing also has divisions managing the support of these activities and other activities that extend to real estate services, financial services and travel agency services.
oeing has a well-developed graduate program and the benefits for employees are numerous. While financial information up to 2000 suggests that oeing is growing, it should also be noted that since September 11, a downturn in the commercial airline industry has impacted oeing. As a result of this 30,000 jobs are expected to be lost. To counter this oeing expects growth in the defense area and oeing is also moving to adapt to the changed environment, such as by focusing on the renewed interest in commercial flight safety.

Going green

"I know most of you have heard of the term going green has been the new buzz word in lifestyle, business, politics and literally every aspect in the world today. But have you asked yourself what green actually means?

Green is basically an ideology which aims at creating an ecologically sustainable society; one that has deep roots in environmentalism or has inclination towards environmental conservation and improvement hence as many people as possible should urgently embrace green revolution since it does not necessary mean that one should change their life.

When we talk of going green we should have an idea of how this is achieved. There are various things that people are doing to make the world go green. Some of these things are recycling, reusing and reducing .in a consumerist society it is difficult for a day to go buy without one purchasing a thing. Going green requires…...

Safety Meeting
Conducting an informative safety meeting can seem like a large task. The purpose of a safety meeting is to effectively convey safety information to employees. Effective communication of safety guidelines and rules can help to reduce the chance of injury on the jobsite. Safety meetings are most often conducted by supervisors, the foreman, or even the company owner. Like everything else, if you follow a plan it can be done with minimal stress. Here is a detailed, step-by-step plan for conducting an informative safety meeting, using a construction company as an example.

The first step in the process is choosing a place to hold the safety meeting. You will want to choose a comfortable area, so the employees can focus their full attention on you and the information you are conveying. It can be hard to focus if an area is too hot or cold, or if there is…...

If we were writing an ocean pollution essay, after presenting facts about ocean pollution we would almost certainly want to discuss solutions. Ocean.now is one of our favorite organizations to look at for solutions about ocean pollution because it provides strong science-based information about ocean pollution, as well as easy action points that people can take to help address the problem.  We love the idea of providing solutions because an essay that just gives facts about ocean pollution is going to be overwhelmingly depressing because ocean pollution and the havoc that it has caused the environment are,....

There are several different types of army leadership styles that can produce the desired results among the armed forces.  Leadership in the army differs a little from leadership in other scenarios because some type of followership is built into the armed forces. The main leadership styles that you are likely to encounter in the army are transactional, transformational, servant, and autocratic. 

Transactional leadership is the type of leadership one most often encounters in the military.  It is based in structure and relies strongly on both rewards and penalties.  Rather than collaborating with subordinates, the transactional leader....
