The reason that Ron Finley makes the statement is because he has been involved in improving his community, working through his nonprofit foundations.

Finley's statement and community work exemplify the <em>seven principles in Maulana Karenga's "Nguzo Saba"</em> in the following ways:

  • For a start, the principles of Nguzo Saba (Swahili) enumerate the values of African culture.  These principles were enunciated by Professor Maulana Karenga as part of her contribution to the building and reinforcement of community culture among African-Americans.

  • <u>Unity: </u>The first principle of Nguzo Saba shows that in unity a community survives.  Ownership of property is not to be regarded as exclusive to the individual owner's use, just as Finley was able to freely donate his garden for education.

  • <u>Self-determination: </u> Finley recognizes that to change the community, determination is required.

  • <u>Collective Work: </u> Finley believes that the work of changing the community does not belong to one person.  It is a collective responsibility.

  • <u>Cooperative economics:</u> Finley, like Maulana, believes that profitability should be shared in the community.

  • <u>Purpose:</u> Finley believes in total transformation, of the individual and the community.  That was why he allowed his garden to become a tool for transformation.  Everybody must work for a purpose.

  • <u>Creativity:</u>  To make change happen, we should think outside the box by changing the composition of the soil.

  • <u>Faith:</u>  Nothing can be achieved without faith.  Ron Finley agrees with the Professor.

Thus, the garden, our society, our community needs transformation.  This must be done with collective efforts.

Lilit [14]

Answer:

Stanley is an executive of Fit Corp., a chain of fitness clubs. For years, he successfully hid illegal and misleading accounting practices, but eventually, he was exposed and punished with a jail sentence under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX).

Explanation:

Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) was established by George W. Bush during 2002. It was created with the main goal of protecting shareholders, employees and the public from fraudulent accounting practices and errors. Due to the corporate scandals at the start of the 21. century, federal lawmakers decided to enact this law in order to regulate financial reporting and other business practices. The most famous cases that preceeded SOX were the case of Enron Corp - one of the largest companies in the US around 2000, WorldCom - news company and Tyco International - security systems company.

How was the Northern Renaissance similar to the Italian Renaissance? How was it different?
Studentka2010 [4]
<span> We covered this in my AP European Class. I could probably get into a lot of detail with you, but I'll stick to giving you a shorter answer.
Basically, the Northern Renaissance took place in areas of Eastern Europe (like the Netherlands). During this time, there was an emphasis on daily life--the lives of peasants. A greater emphasis was put on living a pious, simple life. Therefore, artists like Pieter Bruegel the elder painted pictures such as "Haymaking." It showed regular peasants carrying out their normal everyday tasks. Keep in mind that the Northern Renaissance came much later.
The Italian Renaissance, on the other hand, focused more on the wealthy class (aristocracy). Paintings were elaborate, detailed, and showed how wealthy and powerful people were. This was because a lot of trade was going on during the time of the Italian Renaissance, especially in the Mediterranean. Therefore, individuals were becoming very wealthy, and thus gaining political influence. Also, the Italian Renaissance focused on religion--Roman Catholicism. Popes were wealthy, king-like figures in society and they were often painted in elaborate settings. Greek-Roman revival was VERY important. Oftentimes, paintings reflected themes of the Classical times, and some artists nearly copied the forms of ancient Greek statues and artwork. Also, think of the "Last Judgement." It showed a lot of Italian Renaissance themes. Humanism (the focus of the individual, emphasis on anatomy) , Greek-Roman revival, and religion. <span>
