Bennets The Executioner :: Bennet Executioner

Bennet's The Executioner   Ã‚  Ã‚   "I am the executioner. When the crime is committed and the Lord God does not take vengeance nor does the exalted State move to declare and then to punish, I say when these bitter events happen, then comes the time for the executioner to declare himself or herself as the case may be. I have waited long enough. So the time has come, and I declare myself the executioner.   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  The three criminals are hereby sentenced to death. By fire. By earth. By water."   Ã‚  Ã‚   This is the direct and powerful quote taken from the novel, The Executioner. It explains the basic plot of the story of the one word that every man fears: Revenge. The Executioner was written by the Canadian born author, Jay Bennett. The strengths and weaknesses of this report will be discussed in detail, and the plot of this murder, suspense, and horror story are revealed. The plot will be discussed, for easier comprehension of the story.   Ã‚  Ã‚   This plot begins when Bruce , an 18 year old high school boy was at a bar with his best friend Raymond, and a few other friends named Ed, and Elaine. Unfortunately, Bruce got intoxicated, but still decided to drive the others home from the bar. On the way home, Bruce began arguing with Ray, (the only sober one), and the car was steered of the road into a tree. Raymond was killed by the accident. However, everyone thought that Bruce was not intoxcated at the time, and the car just accidentally swerved off to the side.   Ã‚  Ã‚   Throughout the next chapters, Bruce keeps facing the guilt of killing Ray, and tries to admit to everyone that he did. No one believes him though, and think's he's just making up the story to cover the guilt up. This carrries on for a while, and Bruce feels even more depressed. A few days later, a mysterious man, (the executioner) comes into the bank, and takes out a letter (The one at the introduction of the review) and says, "The first shall die by fire."   Ã‚  Ã‚   The next thing the story shows is a scene in a building, where Ed and Bruce are walking. All of a sudden, Ed is trapped in a room, which is set

Sociology and Perspective

A family is â€Å"a set of people related by blood, marriage or some other agreed-upon relationship, or adoption, who share the primary responsibility for reproduction and caring for members of society. † (Schaefer, 2009) A family is considered a social institution. This social institution is one that can be applied to all three sociological theories which are functionalism, conflict, and interactionism. The first sociological theory is functionalism. A functionalism perspective is a â€Å"sociological approach that emphasizes the way in which the parts of a society are structured to maintain its stability. Schaefer, 2009) This simply means for in the instance of a family that the family in a whole is stable because each family member has a role that they must fulfill. They are dependent on each other to help fulfill their role. If one family member was to leave then there would be dysfunction until the family finds someone to fill that empty role or learns how to deal without that role being fulfilled. Dysfunction is â€Å"the element or process of a society that may actually disrupt the social system or reduce its stability. Schaefer, 2009) Another dysfunction for a family could be a new member being introduced into the family. The new member would then have a new role to play for the family and the family would have to figure out how to deal with this new role. Until the new role is figured out dysfunction will leave the family unstable. The second sociological theory is Conflict. Conflict perspective is â€Å"a sociological approach that assumes that social behavior is best understood in terms of tension between groups over power or the allocation of resources, including housing, money, access to services, and political representation. Schaefer, 2009) This perspective relates to a family in two ways. Family The first is inner structure of a family. Within a family you have members that sometimes fight for roles. Example is who will be the breadwinner and the one who makes all the decisions for the family. These types competition in families to see who will be the more successful and who will have what role can cause a lot conflict and resentment within the family. The second is the outer elements. The family as a whole is always having tension from being in conflict with other families for status. The phrase â€Å"keeping up with the Jones’s† is a prime example of how two families compete with each other to see who makes more and who can climb the social ladder first. The third sociological theory is interactionism. The interactionism perspective is â€Å"a sociological approach that generalizes about everyday forms of social interaction in order to explain society as a whole. † (Schaefer, 2009) This is a view that looks at what we do and how we do it. This approach takes a in depth look at our daily routines. For example like the way we interact at work, school, in other public places like a bus stop or even our behavior in small groups. This is also known as mircosociology. When taking this approach a person sees meaning in objects that includes materialistic things, one's actions, other people's impacts on us, relationships in our life's, and even can include symbols. Symbols can be especially important because they have shared social meanings that can be understood by all members of society. Symbols are nonverbal communication. For a family institution the similarities that these three sociological theories share is based on one common characteristic. That one similarity is that none of them would be effective without some sort of structure. All three of these theories view a family as a group of. Family individuals that are always interacting with each. Their roles are almost always dependent on the other members in their family. That each member has a role to play in order for the family to function effectively and keeps the family as a whole stable. Their roles are based on their actions and how those actions effect the other members of the group. Though all three of these perspectives have this one major characteristic in common they also have some differences. For instance the functionalist perspective sees an unconscious smoothness to how the family interacts with each other. It is like a well oiled machine that each piece is important and without that one piece the machine will not work properly or at all. Functionalist view these interactions as something that is positive and rarely have many conflicts to overcome. While the conflict perspective seems to view consent struggles with many aspects of the family. There is first the conflicts that fill the inside of the family. Those are the struggles a member has with other members of the family for roles within the family. The other is the conflicts the family has as a whole with other families. These are usually over status's such as power, money, housing, political representation and etc. Families competing against other families to have more than the other families. Basically they want to outdo and be more important than others. Interactionism perspective is a mixture of both the other two perspectives. It is mircosociology and looks at every action to see meaning in them. They tend to look really close at how one thing effects other things. The best way to describe it is a cause and effect. Interactionism also looks at the dramaturgical approach. The dramaturgical approach is â€Å"when people are seen as theatrical performers. † (Schaefer, 2009) They look at how people. Family can change roles from one environment to another. For example a person might act a specific way at work or school a more serious role and then at a party they may play a different role, a role of a cool and laid back. It is to say that interactionism looks at the mechanics of the workings of a institution. The affect that the theories perspective has on the individual's view that is part of the family is different for each perspective. Each perspective has a different view of what makes the institution come together and work as a whole. A individual's view on the functionalist perspective would see how the dynamics of the institution comes together and support each other to be make the family as a whole stable. The individual would see how important it is for each person to fulfill their role for everything to work. For example the individual would see how even a person who would normally be considered dysfunctional can sometimes play important role in a families structure. A person for example who is always ill may actually be a strong way for the family to form a closer bond and to connect with each other and keep them even closer than they were. The individual will also be able to see how dysfunction can cause the family to slip from stable to unstable. If the person who was in charge of making the decisions for the family dies the family will be unstable because there will be problems caused by the lack of decision making. This dysfunction can through the family out of balance for a length of time that is really unknown. Sometimes the family can overcome the loss and one of the other members will resume the role of decision maker. Other times it may be that the family will find a new person to bring into the family to take this role and in some cases the family then falls apart. Family and goes their own separate ways and the institution is then destroyed. This view is usually of one of harmony. The view the individual might have with the conflict perspective is one of consent chaos and struggle. They will see how each member of their family seems to always be competing with each other to become the decision maker or the breadwinner. This is a type of dysfunction that is continuously happening and keeping the family from becoming fully stable. The family is seen as a dysfunctional family but yet at the same time a family that works. This individual may also view that the family that is stable as a unit may still always be in a consent struggle with other families. The individual could see how their family works together in harmony to obtain its goal. For example if the family would like to achieve more money than the family would work together to find a way to achieve this goal or if they are trying to achieve a certain political status the family would work together. This has been very obvious these recent years as we watch not only the candidates go out and give speeches and campaigning, but also their spouses, children, and other family members have even been out campaigning for them. Another great example is African American families not as much now but several years back were always under a consent struggle to have rights and be treated as everyone else. The struggle that they endured seemed to hold their family together by a common factor. This view would show that the family comes together because of the constant struggle that they are always under. Family Interactionism perspective a individual in the family would view this as the a way to study how exactly it is that a family functions together. How their family interacts with each other and also with others in society. The individual would view how the members of their family act differently around different members because of the different types of relationships that they have. For example a individual who is a daughter, mother, wife, and sister will act towards their parents, their child, their husband and their sibling differently. That individual will change her role to fit the need for that relationship. Interactionism calls this a dramaturgical approach because it is as if they are a theatrical performer switching characters for different circumstances. Along with how the individual would view the workings of the how the inner family works they also view how the individuals and the family as a whole interacts with people out in society such as people at church, school, work, the store, and in small groups. They are able to view and understand many nonverbal communications that their family members make to each other as well as universal gestures with others outside of their family. This view is in depth and finer workings of how the family functions in many different ways. Social change has different effects on different types of institutions. Depending on what social change has taken place probably would have different effects considering that some social changes might not be relevant to the family while others might have many different effects. Family The affect a family with the functionalist perspective would have on a social change such as gay's having all the same rights as straight couples would help to stabilize many new families. This type of social change could help the stability of many families because in today's society gays are becoming more open and wanting to have families of their own. With the acceptance of gay people having the same rights it will allow for new families to be formed and those families to take on the structures without the struggles that they once incurred. That will allow these families to be able to find the balance that is needed and a unstable family to become stable. A family with the conflict perspective can be affected by a social change such as terrorist policies may find themselves struggling against stereotyping and prejudice because of their ethnic background. These ethnic families could find themselves in a continuous tension between different racial groups because they are suspected of being terrorist because of their racial group. This could easily throw the family into a major struggles to argue and defend themselves to others. Interactionism perspective may not really have any affect on a family with social change. Instead interactionist would view how these social changes would affect the family and it would also view how they interact with others. An example would be how a African American family would interact with others in their society of other racial backgrounds or vice versa. Another would be how our own family interacts with gays who can marry and have families together. This perspective is one of fine beauty no matter if the outcome is good or bad, stable or unstable it is still a amazing thing to see how everything and everyone comes together. Family Society views the institution of a family differently. Some people are more likely to prefer one perspective over others. Many in our society view a family that portrays the functionalist as a prefect family everyone has their place they fulfill their roles and do it well. They are stable with little disruptions. The society tends to view conflict perspective in different ways. One is that if the conflict is within the family that family is considered a dysfunctional family. It is usually chaotic and strange. Another way to view if the conflict is the family as a whole against another element as a strong family that works together hard to achieve a goal. These families could be considered close and competitive. Society under the interactionist view may watch different groups of families to see how they interact with others in society and then base stereotyping which can lead to discrimination based on the majority. The one thing about all of these perspectives is that they are all dealing with the way that families are interacting with each other and others outside of the family. They are all intertwined with each other and shows how the structures are formed and how they are dependent on each other. I personally find that there is truth in all three of the perspectives and I feel that there is true beauty in the complexity of this institution.

The General Macro Environment And Industry Attractiveness

An external analysis looks at the general macro environment and industry attractiveness. A PESTEL analysis will be used to look at the macro environment and Porter’s Five Forces framework will follow to provide a clearer picture of industry attractiveness. PESTEL Kohl’s needs to consider political factors affecting the retail market, which usually pertain to governmental policy. The following represent current political external factors that are present in the macro retail environment in which Kohl’s competes: 1. A potentially high instability of politics (potential threat) 2. Past political support for globalization with the Obama administration, uncertainty abounds with an incoming Trump administration (potential threat or opportunity) 3. Political pressure for increased minimum wage (threat) 4. Governmental support for e-commerce (opportunity) 5. Increasing governmental support for cyber-security (opportunity) Kohl’s has benefited from political stability, which is a condition that allows firms to expand or diversify, but with an incoming change in the presidential administration, Kohl’s needs to be prepared to adjust to changes. Challenges or opportunities may come from changes in tax policies or trade agreements. Government support for e-commerce has also been an opportunity and since Kohl’s competes with a web presence alongside their brick-and-mortar stores, there are certainly opportunities for Kohl’s to exploit.

African Americans in the Civil War - 1971 Words

Roman Robinson Kristen Anderson HIST 3060 February 25, 13 African Americans and the Civil War The role African Americans played in the outcome, and the road to the outcome of the Civil War was immense. The fact that the south had slaves and the north did not played an enormous role in the issues. The north wanted to abolish slavery, and the south did not and after the war started this became one of the main reasons for the Civil War. Since most African Americans could not read or write, this made them an easy target, for slavery, against the dominant white man. Once the slaves got to America they started to realize how much trouble they were actually in. The north and the south had a problem brewing, and that was due to the†¦show more content†¦This Union in particular contributed to the war efforts of the North and showed a new found power among blacks. The regiment started when John Andrew sent a request to the secretary of war, Edwin Stanton, to create a volunteer regiment of African Americans (3). African Americans from all over the country joined. To help recrui t even further they called for help from African American leaders like, Frederick Douglas and William Wells Brown. In just two months over one thousand African Americans, one from at least every state, had enlisted in the regiment. The leader of the regiment would not be black though, they wanted the superior officer to have some certain credentials.

The Concept Of Termination A Phase Of The Intervention...

The concept of termination is a term that is used as a phase of the intervention process. In human behavior termination relates to the combination of everything done to this point leading to attachment and separation. Termination is the last step between the client and worker. There are many different reasons for termination. Before termination evaluation information is gathered. Formative evaluation is done to gather ongoing feedback as the group evolves for improving and refining the group to improve outcomes. Summative evaluation’s purpose is to determine whether a group has met its goals and should be continued. Group leaders should also consider methods of evaluating whether the group was implemented and conducted as planned.

There may be two reasons for this lack of attention. Family systems theory emerged during a time when family therapy was conducted primarily by private practitioners not typically faced with time limits. Further, the theory is influenced by psychodynamic thought, which is largely focused on insight development rather than problem solving with a distinct ending point. The absence of guidelines for ending family systems interventions is problematic because the theory s concepts are abstract and provide practitioners with little direction for determining when a family has achieved its goals. The purpose of this article is to help amend this oversight and provide a set of ending strategies that are consistent with the theory s concepts. We begin with a brief overview of the theory and its intervention strategies and then provide a se t of termination strategies. Family systems theory, sometimes called family emotional systems theory, provides a comprehensive framework for understanding how the emotional ties within families of origin influence people throughout their lives

Segment Reporting Practices In Australia - Myassignmenthelp.Com

Question: Discuss About The Segment Reporting Practices In Australia? Answer: Introducation Woolworth Ltd is a public company which was established on 22nd of September 1924 and is ranked number two of 2000 companies in Australia (Kang Gray 2013, p. 238). Its headquarters are located at Bella Vista, New South Wales. It is reported to generate the highest percentage of revenue for the country through its super markets and grocery stores. The company has various stores and petrol stations which enable it to get maximum profits. It falls under retailing industries. Retail industries have unique characteristics which make them different from other industries. They have a constant evaluation of their businesses; they can learn from mistakes and create a business out of it. They have a valuable goal and vision. These industries address a real unmet need; they are able to satisfy customers needs. Scaling is also a unique characteristic that helps retailers grow. They are able to identify companies with the same goal and vision and buy it for the purpose of expansion (Goodman Remaud 2015, p. 120). These characteristics are all shown by Woolworths limited. From its goals and vision to meet the unmet goals to expansion indicate that it is a retailing industry. Research that was done recently shows that Woolworth is slowly losing its market share to Cole. Australian spent almost a billion dollars less from Woolworth which is believed to be spent at Cole and Aldi's organisations. This has led to a big loss to Woolworth. In 2016, Woolworth was in a financial crisis, for the whole year it experienced a loss of $ 1.28 billion (Kang Gray 2013, p. 240). This was a huge amount of money attributed to failed home improvement ventures and some of groceries and petrol stations slashing. This caused many of the stores to be closed up leading to most jobs being lost. List of References Goodman, S. and Remaud, H., 2015.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Suicide- myassignmenthelp.com

Question: Discuss about theCognitive Behavioral Therapy for Suicide. Answer: Introduction: Depression is one of of the common reason among the adolescent which needs treatment. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the widely used physiothearphy which is used in treating the young and the adolescents suffering from depressions. A suicidal attempt is the peak cause of deaths in adolescents today and these numbers are increasing day by day. Suicide is one of the foremost reasons for death all over the world in adolescents. It has a major effect on the comfort of the person, reasons of momentous death and mental diseases and has the same effect on their family members, society, and health of their parents. Stress, majorly forms an interpersonal conflict and primarily triggers the depressive episode or the suicidal disaster in the predisposed youths. To prevent these cases number of different methods has been adopted which deals with the suicide ideation but the most effective method is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. CBT Treatment of Depression: Suicide is the third reasons for the deaths in youths. The main reasons for the suicidal attempts in the adolescents are a depressive disorder.

In a study, it has been seen that when the patients have been treated through CBT then an effective decrease in the graph of suicides so it has proved to be the suitable for sucidial cases. In 2011 to 2012 youth of age 12 to 18 years were admitted to the hospitiles after the sucide attempt whot tried in last 3 months from the different parts of the country and there parents reported that there child was under depression rom a perticular period of time (Cakovic, 2008). The CBT teratment was started with a randomized selection process. In this individulas from different parts of the country were selected on the bases of the seriousness of the sucidial attempt. In the first treatment, there were 107 youngstres which were between the age of 13 to 18 years and the has to be treated with the major depressive disorder (Cakovic, 2008).. They were divided into 3 different groups nad has to pass through three treatment phases which are as follows: First is CBT for the individual, second is systematic behaviour family therapy and last is Individual nondirective supportive therapy (Hides et.al, 2010). Each treatment consists of 12 to 16 phases which last for 10 to 16 weeks. There are aloso a special 2 to 4 sessions. Participents who were diagonsed through CBT shows lower MMD as compared to the non directive supportive tharepy. It was recorded that there is 30 percent decrease in the suicide case after the individuals who had passed through different sessions. So what was that which helps to reduce sucidial cases, it is nothing but to improve the ideation and thinking capability of the company. A second treatment was conducted where 206 depressed college students, Same randomized proceses were taken into use for selecting the individuals (Hides et.al, 2010). For the 12 weeks only to treatment were followed one is same CBT for individual and second is Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor, in this different symptoms were recorded which are recorded through observing thoughts, ideation (Nelson Duncan, 2015).. A list was made after the following treatment; this list was future base for the comparison for the decrease in the suicide cases (Carmin, 2012). The inventory contains the name, their personal details, the reason for the suicide attempt and seriousness of the reason which compels him or her to attempt a suicide. It was recorded that uncontrollable depression. It is the almost the same reasons for the suicidal attempt and depression is due to many different causes from individual to individual. One most common cause is the hopelessness (Carmin, 2012). There are nostatistic major differences in all of the above mention tools which measure the chance of depression.The age distribution of the groups was not so different on which the report was made. This means that these two groups were same and equivalent and the experimental differences after the involvement can be attributed (Bowers, 2002). Since there had been different studies which had proved the congitive behavioural therapy most effective, which helps to remove the deep reason for the suicidal ideation. After the complete CBT treatment the individuals vere felt very motivated and a life time opportunity for living (Kathryn McHugh, 2010). Females were at the top of the list as they come out of the weared situation of the life which became the reason for the sucide(Nelson Duncan, 2015).. The scores which are mentioned in the control group after 3 months did not change significantly in all of them, but the scores in all of these lists decreased considerably in these group Some limitations of CBT (Kathryn McHugh, 2010). According, to the CBT report, the problems with the youth are lack of motivation in the individual because of different. So a suitable way in the treatment was found so that a feeling of inspiration should be filled which was the first step in one of the phase. Results of the cognitive behaviour therapy were outstanding because of the decrease in the rate of the suicidal attempts (Nielsen, 2015). It also reported that modern life style is also a reason for suicide because of the increase in the pressure of wether studies or work, society or family pressure puts strains on the brains of the individual force an individual to hopelessness results trying for the suicide. In the inventory, it was clearly mentioned that lack of good parenting style increases the depression in the adolescents (Nielsen, 2015). Different phases of the CBT mission only to find the key rooted reason, different therapy was preformed so that a complete scanning of the i ndividual was done. The scores which are mentioned in the above table after 3 months of study do change significantly but the scores in the entire above table are ininventory reduce significantly in the intrusion set. Conclusion: A considerable progress had been achieved in the reducing the suicidal attempts by CBT method of treatment in the past several years in adolescents. Cognitive behaviour therapy is the well established treatment for the children and adolescents (Lorenzo et.al, 2016). It gives us the evidence about the complicated reasons, so that in future there will be a decrease in the suicide cases. It shows that different angry feelings and losing self-control increase the depression in the adolescents. In CBT adolescents were asked to keep cool in every situation in life (Bowers, 2002). So, CBT treatments lay emphasis on the deeper reasons before it starts its treatments. The number of therapies for depression has increased, there is still little evidence based information indicating how or why these treatments work (Lorenzo et.al, 2016). Although an ultimate treatment for adolescent suicide who attempts suicide has yet to be established, the limited records suggest that suicidal thoughts and behaviour should be directly addressed for best treatment result (Bowers, 2002). Training adolescents in specific skills for coping depression and affect good techniques that can be applied to thoughts and behaviours associated with suicidal cases. However, future trials for the CBT is very necessary because it has been proven the optimal way to reduce the suicidal risk in the individuals and the parents of such individuals should actively participate in the forcing their children who are depressed and hopeless in life to pass through the CBT treatment process which helps them to remove the ill thought from their mindsets (Persons, 2016).
