The theme around the positive effects is that it provides personal growth and also that the Researchers Susan Krauss, Stacy Ellenburg, and Kyoto Akimoto researched how the Facebook game “Bejewled Blitz” was used in the everyday lives of people. They introduced the fact that studies show video game benefits and that the studies benefited high brain functions (e.g reasoning, brain functioning, trail making) (Krauss

The constitution was created to define the various powers of government, including the powers given to the President.

Acting out of a sense of duty can be implied as going above and beyond what your job description entails. An individual who is not obligated to do something but does it anyways because they feel that it is morally right to act out of their sense of duty, by completing a good deed.

In Martin Meyerson’s Building the Middle-Range Bridge for Comprehensive Planning (1956), he advocated a sort of “intelligence function of planning” that provides a “middle-range bridge” between long term comprehensive planning and the daily routine (p. 60). In other words, this sort of planning involves information gathering, scenario creation, testing, evaluation, which may all be implemented on a regular basis to support the governing functions of an urban planner. Meyerson is careful to distinguish
