  • Eradicating Poverty and Unifying Guyana
    NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY Eradicating Poverty and Unifying Guyana A Civil Society Document - AN OVERVIEW - I GUYANA - BASIC INFORMATION • Guyana, with an area of 83,000 square miles or 215,000 square kilometres, is located on the northern coast of South America, and is the only English-speaking country on that continent. It is bounded on the north by the Atlantic Ocean, on the east by Surinam, on the south and south-west by Brazil, and on the west and north-west by Venezuela. • Guyana is physically divided into four types of landforms: (i) a flat coastal, clayey belt which is about 4.5 feet below sea level, and in which most of its agricultural activity occurs; (ii) a sand belt, to the south of the coastal belt, which includes the Intermediate Savannas; (iii) an undulating, central peneplain which comprises more than half of the country’s area, and in which are located lush, almost pristine, tropical forests, and extensive mineral deposits. This landform stretches from the sand belt to the country’s southern boundary and encompasses, also, the Rupununi Savannas which border Brazil; and (iv) the highlands which are to be found in the midwestern area. This portion of the Guiana Highlands includes the Pakaraima mountain range. • Guyana has a plentitude of natural resources: fertile agricultural lands on the coastal plain and in the riverain areas; vast areas of tropical hardwood forests of various ecosystems and with a multitude of plant and animal species; abundant fish and shrimping grounds, both in its numerous rivers and in the Atlantic Ocean to its north; and a wide variety of minerals, including gold, diamonds, a range of semi-precious stones, bauxite and manganese.

  • Understanding Jonestown Whitney Fosu Junior Division Historical
    1 Understanding Jonestown Whitney Fosu Junior Division Historical Paper Paper Length: 2,019 Words 2 The 1960s and 1970s were a bleak and uncertain time for many. During these decades, both the Civil Rights movement and the Women's Liberation movement were transpiring. Overall, this period was a difficult time for people everywhere. During the 1970s, Jim Jones' church, Peoples Temple, was a momentous accomplishment for welcoming all genders, races, and ages, yet this is where the triumph ends. In addition to his instability, and the members' mindless compliance, the criticisms and the political powers of outsiders ignited the tragedy of mass suicide. This remains a cautionary tale for everyday life, as it could very much occur again. Introduction into Jim Jones’ Life Jim Warren Jones was born on May 31, 1931, to James Thurman Jones and Lynetta Putnam Jones in Crete, Indiana. When he was born, his mother was working as a factory worker, while his dad was in a poor state of health due to his exposure to poisonous gasses during World War I. Growing up, he became more and more cognizant of the distinctions between his life and that of other children around him. It can be said that he was somewhat neglected during his youth as a result of his mother having to work all day leaving him with no one to care for him, and his father barely spending any time with him because of his involvement in the Ku Klux Klan, a white supremacist group. His first encounter with religion came from his neighbor, Myrtle Kennedy, who cared for him during his childhood.

  • Drinking the Kool-Aid March 2012
    Drinking the Kool-Aid March 2012 Be careful not to drink the Kool-Aid. A former consulting colleague. It’s interesting how a word or phrase can be recycled many years later to mean something completely different than it did originally. Take for example the word gay which used to mean merry or artificial which originally meant full of artistic or technical skill or awful which meant full of awe. I thought the name, adman and product Kool-Aid went out of style a long time ago. The product still exists on the bottom shelf of your grocery store but the concept has morphed in meaning and re-entered our contemporary nomenclature to mean something different. When I was a kid drinking the Kool-Aid simply meant joy and great enthusiasm like the Kool-Aid Man shows above. It was an early, inexpensive, convenience drink. You just needed to add a ton of sugar and water to create a very sweet drink with little or no real nutritional value. By today’s standards, it was probably unhealthy, as it is basically sugar, dyes and chemicals. The last time I came across it was when high school kids used it as a quick and cheap hair dye. The first time I heard the phrase used in this newer and negative way was during a consulting assignment a number of years ago. I was invited to a cocktail hour with the senior management team of a firm. Dennis (the colleague) had been working with the team clarifying their strategy. I was to begin the change implementation portion of the engagement.
