The role of the human service professional in the helping process has many dimensions. One of the most important of these, according to Murphy and Dillon (2012) is the ethical aspect, because "ethical codes stress the primacy of the service obligation to the client, confidentiality, integrity, and follow-through." The needs of the client should be the primary concern of the human service professional, which is why years of training and practice are required before they are truly qualified and fully prepared to take on the responsibility of helping other individuals who are in crisis.

Kai Hung Fung is a radiologist known for his 3D creative work on human body. He gained attention in 2003 when he started using computed tomography (CT) to visualize human body parts. His creative work is based on a complete background research for example he researched about color usage in 3D image of computed tomography. He is also considered to be a pioneer of developing Rainbow Technique. Through this technique contour line can be rendered into the rainbow colors to confine the 3D space.

Hard Work has always been a virtue in American society, and some say it comes from the country's Puritan heritage. If so, it could explain a great deal about how hard work has become a form of self-imposed slavery.

This paper analyzes Jung's concept of 'the shadow' as it relates to Heart of Darkness, Things Fall Apart, and Apocalypse Now. The concept of 'the shadow' is that it is a repository of all of the dark desires of the self and society that we wish to avoid. In the past, Europeans have rendered nonwhite peoples into 'shadows.' This reflects European anxieties about sexuality and violence rather than functions a true expression of culture of nonwhite peoples themselves.

Renaissance is seen as the era in European civilization after the middle ages and is generally accepted as having been characterized by a surge of interest in classical learning and values. During the renaissance, there emerged new discoveries, exploration of new continents, and substitution of the Copernican for the Ptolemaic system of astronomy, decline of the feudal system and the growth of commerce, and the invention of paper among others. To the scholars and thinkers of this time, renaissance was viewed as a time of the revival of classical learning and wisdom after a long period of cultural decline and stagnation. In this regard, this paper criticizes the characteristic of modernity as defined by Norman Davies.

In this paper, I have described the state of race and ethnicity in baseball (particularly referring to America) in detail. Starting from the history of ethnicity and racism in baseball, I have also provided the present scenario in the game. In the last part of my paper, I have described the importance of baseball to American society.

Regulating Oil and Gas Drilling and Transport Introduction. The American economy runs on energy produced from oil, coal, natural gas, hydroelectric power, nuclear power and renewable sources like solar and wind energies. In fact according to a report in the Congressional Research Service, oil provides the United States with 40% of its total energy needs. It is used in myriad ways, providing "…fuel for the transportation, industrial, and residential sectors" (Ramseur, 2012). Because of the great need for energy to fuel the American economy, oil in "vast quantities" enters the country and moves through the country by ships and by pipelines, Ramseur explains in the Congressional Research Service. Hence, it is inevitable that some spills will occur, and they certainly do occur, notwithstanding the attempts by the industry to conduct its business safely. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) reports that the U.S. consumed 6.87 billion barrels (about 18.83 million barrels a day) in 2011, and that was a slight reduction from the 7.0 billion barrels consumed in 2010 (www.eia.gov). As for the amount of natural gas consumed in the U.S. annually, the EIA reports that Americans used approximately 24.38 trillion cubic feet in 2011 (www.eia.gov). There is no doubt that until such time as renewable sources provide far more energy for the nation, oil and natural gas in particular will be in great demand. This paper reviews current environmental problems associated with oil and gas production and offers strategies for safer ways to regulate oil and gas production. Thesis: Because of the risky strategies energy corporations take in retrieving oil and natural gas – and due to the leaks, spills, blowouts, tankers running around and other errors and disasters associated with oil extraction and transport – major new environmental regulations must be put on place regarding the drilling for oil. Moreover, current tactics for producing natural gas from existing wells – a process known as "fracking" – are not safe, do not protect the environment, have the potentiality of bringing harm residents and communities, and should be strictly regulated.

In this essay, I have discussed that how essential Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is for the success of Transnational Corporations. UN Global Compact is also being discussed. I have also included case studies to support of Nike, Primark and Microsoft. Moreover, I have included positives and negatives about CSR and the factors that exist in CSR which may lead to the success of transnational corporations. Finally, I have included the role of stakeholders in CSR.
