She is the best thing that has happen to me, even though it is a lot of work to take care of her. On Fridays, I pick her up at two and we start the day with a long walk down the street.

This book is an analysis of contemporary American military policy. Professor, and veteran, Andrew Bacevich shows how the United States uses their military to emphasize its empire in certain parts of the world. His overall thesis gives his readers a picture of the conflicts that exist, such as some particular wars and its participants and the lack of response to the results and consequences. The author argues that the United States has interests in foreign affairs and that it is more likely to get involved in areas where it has a priority interest, especially to gain economic benefits. He also proposes that the U.S. interests have expanded since the Cold War, and the responsibilities of the U.S. to help other countries and keeping order have expanded to become more inconclusive; leading to an increase of military sending and use.

If you always stay busy, you can participate in more situations. Getting to participate in more situations can help your strength and mental state.

Per chapter one of the text, The War Play Dilemma by Levin and Carlsson-Paige, war play has been a topic of interest and debate among early childhood educators and parents for many years. This war play dilemma is expressed through the play of approximately four-year old boys whose preferred television shows are Star Wars, G.I Joe, He-Man, or Transformers. The children often have a compelling interest in war and weapons play and is causing a confusion among teachers whether to let them continue to play this way while at the same time trying to teach them that violence is not acceptable.

Looking back over the development of the Security Studies field, there can be no doubt that the realist tradition has exercised enormous influence. Even the harshest of critics can acknowledge that with their focus on power, fear, and anarchy, realist theories have provided centrally important explanations for conflict and war (Williams, 2013). One interpretation of realism that is unbroken amongst most commentators of the theory is that realists are individuals that believe the State is the principle actor in international politics and that they are very concerned with the balance of power (Marsalis, 2013). They argue that all the State’s actions and choices are a reflection of the collective will of the people, which is also an argument
