United States Senate Foster Dulles
799 wordsThe question of whether The United States was right to enter into the Korean war is not a geo military question, but rather an ethical one. Was the US just in their decision?

2,005 wordsIt is likely that when comparing Civil War Generals that the historian cannot make general or specific comparisons between personalities like Robert E. Lee and Ulysses S. Grant. They eventually fought each other, and Grant was the victor. Who was more bold? Who was more the genius? Who had the best instincts? When comparing Robert E. Lee with Joseph Johnston comparisons come quickly. One was a bold offensive minded general and the other? And the other was also an offensive minded general who lac...

Sense Of Belonging Members Of The Group
1,244 wordsThe climate in a group is very important. It greatly influences the outcome of the situation and the outcome of the problem. The amount of support, the type of messages, and the degree of cohesiveness are the defining factors which determine the climate of the group. The film Waking Ned Devine shows all these factors throughout the movie, especially in the church scene. A defensive climate evolves when a member of the group focuses more on his own needs rather than on those of the group. This pe...

Lymph Nodes Nervous System
1,517 wordsStress is the nonspecific response of the body to any demand made on it. Each demand made on the body is specific. Each drug or hormone has specific actions, yet they all have one thing in common; they increase the demand for readjustment. This demand is nonspecific; it requires adaptation to a problem. In other words, in addition to their specific actions, all agents to which we are exposed also produce a nonspecific increase in the need to perform adaptive functions to re-establish normality. ...
