Behavioral Economics is a group of concepts which put into question the rational character of people's financial decisions.

Starting the VietNam War: Exploring the Events Leading Up to the Vietnam War

Let us agree from the very beginning that an exact starting point of the Vietnam war cannot be set. The United States entered that war gradually, following certain steps which spread over a 15-year timeline, from 1950 to 1965. And even before that, one needs to take into account the interest France held prior in the region. In the second half of the 19th century, the French began to take control of Vietnam. At first their intervention was meant to be a mere protectorate, but it gradually turned into possession by 1939. Together with Cambodia, Vietnam became known as a French colony belonging to French Indochina, to which Laos was also added later on. Certainly, the French journey to dominion met some resistance from the Vietnamese, but none of their riots were successful.

Who Was Henrietta Lacks? On a bright day of August 1st, in the year of 1920, Eliza and Johnny Pleasant brought forth a girl Loretta Pleasant, who's name was later on changed to Henrietta Lacks for reasons unknown to the family. As she grew up, she was given the nickname Hennie. At four years of age her birth mother died of birth complications from her tenth child. Following the hardship of taking care of the children solely, after the demise of his wife, Johnny moved to Clover, Virginia. He then gave guardianship of his children to his folks. Lacks moved in with her grandfather Tommy Lacks, in a two-story log cabin initially owned by her great grandfather and great uncle (it once served as slaves' quarter on the farm). She shared a room with David 'Day 'Lacks, nine years old at the time. He was her cousin, who would later be her husband, and had been there since 1905.
Die Bedeutung der Namen in "Volpone" von Ben Jonson
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Anglistik - Literatur, Note: 1,3, Universit t Hamburg, 20 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: "Nomen atque omen" meint das ber hmte lateinische Sprichwort des r mischen Kom diendichters Plautus (250-184 v Chr.) und spielt dabei auf die Bedeutung des Namens f r den Charakter einer Sache oder einer Person an. Im Normalfall mag das bei Eigennamen nicht so ohne weiteres anwendbar sein, aber sobald man sich im Gebiet der Literatur befindet, kann man nicht umhin die Bedeutung der Namen von Figuren zu beachten. Hier werden mit Absicht Namen kreiert, deren Klangbilder oder Bestandteile oft schon etwas ber die Bezeichneten aussagen, um beim Leser von Anfang an gewisse Assoziationen zu wecken. Diese sogenannten "sprechenden Namen" z hlen vermutlich zu den ltesten Stilmitteln der Literatur und fanden bereits in fr her berlieferung Anwendung.1 Auch in Ben Jonsons St ck Volpone or the Fox gibt es eine Vielzahl von diesen "sprechenden Namen." ...] Im Folgenden m chte ich der Intention Jonsons auf den Grund gehen, warum er seinen Figuren solche "telling names" gegeben hat. Meine These ist, dass die "tierischen Namen" die Charaktere nicht nur bereits im Vorfeld charakterisieren, sondern dass sie auch die Entmenschlichung symbolisieren, der ihre Figuren im Zuge des St ckes unterliegen. Richtet sich der Mensch gegen seine eigene Gattung wird er inhuman und nicht mehr als ein "beast."
