The reason for, legitimacy and lasting effects of intelligence operations in Northern Ireland during The Troubles.

This research should include three distinct sections:

Section 1: Who were the agencies conducting intelligence operations in Northern Ireland during The Troubles (between 1968 and 1998) and why did they conduct them? 
Section 2: How legal were they? What UN laws or protocols did they contradict or abide by? Who authorised them? Were they legitimate? What did other countries say about them? Who condemned and who commended?
Section 3: What has this meant for the future of Northern Ireland and intelligence operations around the world? What has become of their legacy?

The readings given should aid in direction but only for the introduction and first section. Further material will be required to compile section 2 and 3.

Gender Performativity

Performativity: Explain the two different ways we perform, according to Judith Butler. Then identify which of these two forms of performativity Judith Butler thinks we do with gender. Unpack why this differentiation is important and the potential  problems that could come in understanding gender as the other kind of performance. Finally, think of an example that proves Butler’s argument and explain how it does so.

you will imagine you are employed as a human services professional in your desired area of interest. You have been asked to prepare a brief policy paper analyzing a particular piece of human services legislation and to make policy recommendations for better meeting the needs of your client base. Using a specific piece of state or federal legislation that you have identified and researched in this course, you will assess the strengths and/or weaknesses of the legislation in addressing the needs of clients, bearing in mind the cultural, social, political, historical, and economic context in which the legislation was proposed. You should also consider how other similar legislation currently before state or federal legislative bodies might impact the legislation, and any legal or ethical concerns. Based on your analysis, your paper should explain your organizations position on the legislation being considered, propose areas for improvement, and recommend strategies for building coalitions to support your position. Your analysis and recommendations should take into account the various interest groups or stakeholders that may influence the legislation being considered, including the roles of media, lobbying groups, community groups, beneficiaries, and concerned individuals and how political, social, or economic concerns may affect implementation.
The analysis in the policy brief should be based on an evaluative, comprehensive literature review focused on the identified social problem and legislation and a background analysis conducted earlier in the course

Nuclear power plant accidents: Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, and Fukushima Daiichi

At the start of this paper I need a strong draft argument/thesis statement.

Can you come up with three more questions you could research and answer about this topic.
These questions I think can be used but i need three more six in total
1) Global impact of nuclear power plants?
2) Have people showed signs of radiation sickness in the areas around these three plants after the accidents?
3) How much information did they give the public about the accidents?

I need 15 sources about how these three power plants had accidents
write out the source then write a short paragraph on how you will use the source in the finale paper

American Revolution

It is July 5, 1776, the day after the Founding Fathers just committed an act of treason against the British by declaring their independence and establishing the United States of America. Were they in the right? Should the colonists fight for independence or should they be dutiful citizens with the rights of Englishmen? Make an argument, either in the form of a letter or a speech to rally your peers. (You are welcome to write in first person.) On which side should they be? What do you want them to do? What would you like to see as the outcome?
Introduction:
Create the setting. Provide historical background to give context for your speech. What
had happened in America in the previous decades? Also, identify who you are. (Are you an American? A Loyalist? A slave? You are welcome to choose a specific historical person, or you can just give a general position.) Where do you live? (In which colony? In an urban or rural area? Is it coastal?) What do you do? (Are you a merchant? Politician? Lawyer? Farmer?) Identify whom you are addressing. (Who are your peers?) Include your thesis sentence as your last sentence of your first paragraph. Your thesis sentence is the argument that you will be making throughout your paper.
Body:
In that speech, lay out the choices that they can take. What are the benefits? What are
the pitfalls? Then, rally them in the direction you want them to head. What actions do you want them to take to get there? Finally, explain the consequences and benefits that may befall them if they fail and if they succeed.
Use the rights of English citizens, the grievances of colonists, and the goals of the Americans as evidence to analyze. To make your argument use at least two primary sources (these can be from your documents book) from the Revolutionary Era. Quote from those two sources and use proper Chicago Manual of Style footnotes or endnotes to cite those quotations.
Conclusion:
Wrap it up with something convincing. What would you have considered your social and
political responsibilities, and even duties, in this era? Comment on ethical decision-making in terms of what occurred during the American Revolution.
Tips:
This must be a five paragraph essay, that is between 2.5 to 4 pages.
Be sure you follow the Rules for Writers and the Chicago Manual of Style for grammar and formatting.

How do various accounts of African Americans lives in Chicago shed light on the meaning, accuracy and significance of Wrights conclusions

Please refer to Paper 1 Prompt for the paper instructions. The prompt is about the memoir Black Boy by Richard Wright which I unfortunately do not have the e-book for but I have taken extensive notes (in Lecture Notes doc) and I am sure the sparknotes of the book would suffice.

History

Worlds Together, Worlds Apart (Concise Edition) Book
I would like you to reflect upon the possible connections that would tie the rise of Genghis (Chinggis) Khan to the era of intense spiritual and intellectual upheaval and questioning that preceded what came to be known as the Protestant Reformation over two centuries later in Europe. The Mongol expansion sparked a series of events that might provide us with at least one piece of the puzzle to explain what led society to question everything it had more or less quietly accepted before.  (I stress, this is a possible explanation of some of the many factors). Very specifically, I am asking you to consider disease as the particular engine of change here.
In essence I am asking you to follow the domino pieces.  Some of the domino pieces include the Mongol conquests, Mongol Empire, Trade, Plague, Depletion of Monastic Orders, Expanded Charity Requirements. Making the correct connections and linkages and expressing them well is crucialu. I am asking to follow one particular argument  focused mostly on disease, so although there are many other interesting factors (knowledge transfers and the like) please focus on disease.
In other words try to provide a fleshed out narrative that could explain the connections between these seemingly unconnected events (fleshed out refers to the need to provide some level of detail on each event and a clear explanation of the connections please be sure to establish a timeline and to provide dates.)
Notice that there is already an argument inherent to this prompt.  You do not need to create and original argument. Part of the exercise here is to see how well you can succinctly express this argument in your thesis statement.
Instructions:
To answer this question you will want to use the Power Points, the Three Days in October 1630 and the “Siege of Caffa” articles and the text. Please be sure to cite. DO NOT use arguments from outside sources. I expect this to be typed, proofed, edited and polished.  Double space, use 12 size font and employ regular margins (1 inch).  You should be able to answer this in no more than 4 pages.
Send me or your TAs any questions you might have and we will do our best to answer them. 
There are a few issues I would like to elaborate on in order to dispel any possible confusion.
Assignment II – Elaboration
1. This particular assignment is not about the Protestant Reformation itself that topic we will be covering later on in the semester but about some of the many possible precursors to the Reformation.
2. When you are asked to look at possible connections between the rise of Genghis Khan and the changes in Europe, I am not asking for a direct personal connection!! The Mongol unification gave rise to a certain set of events.  Those then set other events off, which in turn set off yet others until we finally have the events that I have referred to as possible precursors to the Reformation (Those things that caused people to question the Church and so on and so forth.) That is what I am asking you to discuss and explain. The events leading to the preconditions for a movement of intellectual and social revolt (so to speak.)
3. The article we read should be useful since if you draw the right information from it you can describe the effects of the plague and how it affected society, to support the argument that this was a time of chaos and fear and so on a so forthBe sure to review the lecture notes carefully and to use the textbook when appropriate.
4. Please use Chicago Manual of Style referencing style simple guides readily available online.
