Answer to Question 1

The global superclass, also known as the transnational elite and the transnational ruling class is an elite group of top national company leaders who are extremely wealthy and extremely powerful. Much of their power lies in their connections to top political leaders around the globe. These connections and their extreme wealth place them in positions that have a major influence on global investing (often behind the scenes). Therefore, they largely affect our present and future.

Answer to Question 2

Feminism is a philosophy that maintains that women and men should be equal politically, economically, and socially. The women's movement in the U.S. actually has had three phases. (1 ) In the first phase, two branches of feminism existed  a radical branch that advocated the reform of all the society's institutions, and a conservative branch that concentrated on winning the vote for women. During this first phase, the conservative branch dominated. After the vote was won in 1920, the movement began to dissolve.
(2 ) The second phase of the women's movement began in the 1960s as larger numbers of women began to work outside the home on a more permanent basis and began to compare their working conditions with those of men. They protested and struggled against gender inequalities. The goals of this second movement (which continues today) are broad, ranging from changing work roles to reforming policies that deal with violence against women.
(3 ) A third phase of feminism has emerged, largely focusing on women in Least Industrialized Nations, values that dominate work and society, and impediments to women's sexuality and sexual pleasure.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
