The Assassination of Julius Caesar The book “The Assassination of Julius Caesar” by Michael Parenti is an intriguing and compelling piece centered on the 18th century. The book is most notable for the use of the terminology ‘Gentlemen’s History’ a compelling feature interrelated in the habits of the men within the book. It is, however, juxtaposed to that which Parenti refers to as ‘People’s history’. Through telling his story in Julius Caesar’s career and lifetime he brings out a variety of what possibly underwent in the lives of individuals during Caesar’s period. It maintains an evoking mirage to events that happened that grants its mark as a well-written book. There are strong plausible attributes that the ‘Gentlemen’s History’ has evoked within modern-day society to mimic as character traits of any gentleman. Julius Caesar had a knack of aligning himself with the wealthiest of allies who had strong connections within the upper-class society. One of his allies the famed Marcus Licinius Crassus was wealthy. Crassus, as he was famously referred to as, was a consul to Rome. Gnaeus Pompey Magnus, a…

Kidneys Other than the heart, kidneys are the most important parts of a human body. It is crucial to have healthy kidneys because they play a major role in keeping your body healthy. These small powerful organs are responsible for urine production, releasing hormones that balance the blood pressure, balancing body fluids, and filtering waste. There are several ways that these small bean-shaped organs can be damaged. The most common threat to kidneys is high blood pressure and diabetes. However, factors like gender, age, smoking, genetics, obesity, and smoking also pose a threat to kidneys. Uncontrolled blood pressure and diabetes have a high chance of damaging the kidneys’ blood vessels thus affecting their functionality. If the kidneys do not function optimally, waste products accumulate in the blood. This is why it is important for people with kidney disease to follow special kidney diets to help promote healthy kidneys. The diets vary from one person to another depending on the level or the severity of the disease. For instance, people with renal disease have a different diet from people with early…

Hypothesis-testing Chapter 10 10.65 The criteria used for selecting a hypothesis-testing procedure are as follows. The first criterion is based on the number of groups being tested. The hypothesis test to be used for two samples is different from that used for three samples. Thus, it is crucial to determine the number of samples being compared before choosing a hypothesis-testing procedure. Secondly, the type of data should be considered while choosing a testing procedure. Different procedures are used for discrete data and different for continuous data. Lastly, the selection of the hypothesis testing procedure should be guided by the type of population parameter being compared. There is a difference between the methods used to compare means, medians, and standard deviations. 10.68 Two independent populations refer to populations that don’t have common characteristics.

They could share a similar mean or standard deviation. 10.73 While using the ANOVA for analysis, the following assumptions…
Collecting information my early years, I used to come across people who were facing many problems in many spheres of life. In my neighborhood, I used to hear screams from my neighbor’s house, due to the frequent domestic violence. The man was always beating his woman on many occasions to work distress, lack of financial capabilities to meet their needs, and other issues that forced him into being drunk and disorderly. I used to hear the woman always talking to my parents about how her husband is stressed. This constant situation then drove me into having a desire to help the people who are dealing with mental issues and problems into being responsible people in society, and how they can overcome their challenges. It is therefore a dream that was inspired since my early childhood, and I knew that surely one day I will pursue the counseling field to help people with issues they face in life. The other factors are the increased number of people I met on the road, drinking and going home late, due to the issues…
The Federal TRIO The Federal TRIO is a student’s outreach program that aims to help the disadvantaged finish their education. As a part of the less fortunate students currently in the United States, I would like to extend this application form in hopes that you will find me a viable candidate.

I have planned out my school budget and I am sure that finishing my course work will be a great challenge for me and my family. I am positive that one of the aforementioned…
Global poverty American people and the United States government struggle to respond to the idea of global poverty, they should bear in mind well that this issue is not only a hip not a solely humanitarian problem. As discussed by Rice (2006), in realistic ways, this issue can threaten the national security of the nation. Presently, it is estimated that about 1.1 billion people in the world are living in extreme poverty, with more than half living on less than $2 daily. Poverty is generally a killer and a security threat these people face. Poverty is also a driver of conflicts with studies showing that a country with a declining income nationally and a low GDP per capita results in accelerated civil conflicts. On an average, any country with a GDP per capita of $250 has a 15% risk of experiencing civil wars, and one with a $5,000 GDP per capita has a 1% risk of experiencing civil wars (Rice, 2006). Conflicts in other distant countries also tend to impact the US more directly, as they result in refugee influx…
