According to the article "Can a genetically-modified organism-containing diet influence embryo development? A preliminary study on pre-implantation mouse embryos", "Millions of animals are used every year for a wide variety of scientific and medical purposes. This article talks about experiments being done on male and female mice. However, there are ethics that are suppose to be involved but are being crossed all the time. Some of this scientific investigation is to study about and increase the wellbeing of animals, but a lot of these animal experiments are inappropriately piloted for human welfares. Even though there has been some scientific progress regarding this, animal testing can be unethical and unnecessary because all animals, like humans, have worth and are worthy of being preserved with admiration. This essay will give a critical analysis of the ethical implications of this development.

The essay answers 6 engineering questions. An example of one: Explain in words what the RPN means and how it can be used to help justify the required investment to control the hazard. This is a Risk Priority Number. It is the derivative of Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) which is a method for evaluating a work process. An FMEA identifies the probabilities of failure for each step in the process. Each failure mode receives a numeric score that identifies: (a) the probability that the failure will occur, (b) probability that the failure will not be detected, and (c) the amount of damage the failure mode may cause to worker or to equipment. The product of these three scores is the RPN.

A tale of fictitious or real events or narrative is defined as a story. For our hungry souls, the nourishment is stories. Palatable stories exist due to these elements of truth. There are many ways to tell a story to the latest Hollywood blockbuster from classic novels written by the greatest writers and to ghost tales around a campfire from prehistoric drawings on a cave. Creating an environment in which everything is possible, the story teller is the magician. The pictures seen in the mind of the storyteller are shown and passed and for interpretation are passed to the minds of the listeners. Storytelling is all the rage in business. The persuasive effects of a story are only been able to speculate until recently. But, a serious study related to the human mind and the influences of a story in it has been begun by psychology over the last several decades. In fact, in comparison to writing, at changing beliefs fiction seems to be more effective as to persuade through evidence and arguments is the specific purpose of writing. The power of stories is finally waking up in organizations. In compare to the questionnaire and interviews based approach in organizations, the patterns of understanding, behavior and culture are revealed in a more effective way by stories. The ideation patterns of a particular organization are revealed by the stories told in an organization in all aspects of organization life, like, in project reviews and formally in presentations. The recognition of a possible work is integral to the evolution of a different and new world. However, potentiality for such a world is continuously claimed by the status quo. To bind us to this world, different truths are used by the status quo. The Telos of life is supposedly the survival. Therefore, a cosmology is required by any threat to the status quo so that a path and a view of a different world are provided to us for realizing this world. I believe that this cosmology is given to us by considering narrative as a way of being in the world as it fundamentally alters out relation to our own humanity, our relation to others and our relation to the world. The condition of our humanity is intertwined with the condition of the world by it. In total, a compelling narrative is derived by this emergent view of narrative as the realms of possibilities are enlarged by it.
