Violence is defined by the World Health Organization as the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself, another person, or against a group or community, that either results in or has a high likelihood of resulting in injury, death, psychological harm, maldevelopment or deprivation. This definition associates intentionality with the committing of the act itself, irrespective of the outcome it produces.
Globally, violence takes the lives of more than 1.5 million people annually: just over 50% due to suicide, some 35% due to homicide, and just over 12% as a direct result of war or some other form of conflict. For each single death due to violence, there are dozens of hospitalizations, hundreds of emergency department visits, and thousands of doctors' appointments. Furthermore, violence often has life-long consequences for victims' physical and mental health and social functioning and can slow economic and social development.
Violence, however, is preventable. Evidence shows strong relationships between levels of violence and potentially modifiable factors such as concentrated poverty, income and gender inequality, the harmful use of alcohol, and the absence of safe, stable, and nurturing relationships between children and parents. Scientific research shows that strategies addressing the underlying causes of violence can be effective in preventing violence. Examples of scientifically credible strategies to prevent violence include nurse home-visiting and parenting education to prevent child maltreatment; life skills training for children ages 6–18 years; school-based programmes to address gender norms and attitudes; reducing alcohol availability and misuse through enactment and enforcement of liquor licensing laws, taxation and pricing; reducing access to guns and knives; and promoting gender equality by, for instance, supporting the economic empowerment of women.
Donald John Trump, Sr. (born June 14, 1946) is an American business magnate, television personality and author. He is the chairman and president of The Trump Organization and the founder of Trump Entertainment Resorts. Trump's extravagant lifestyle, outspoken manner and role on the NBC reality show The Apprentice have made him a well-known celebrity who was No. 17 on the 2011 Forbes Celebrity 100 list. He is well-known as a real-estate developer who amassed vast hotel, casino, and other real-estate properties, in the New York City area and around the world.
Trump is the son of Fred Trump, a wealthy New York City real-estate developer. He worked for his father's firm, Elizabeth Trump & Son, while attending the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, and in 1968 officially joined the company. He was given control of the company in 1971 and renamed it The Trump Organization.
In 2010, Trump expressed an interest in becoming a candidate for President of the United States in the 2012 election. In May 2011, he announced he would not be a candidate, but a few weeks later he said he had not completely ruled out the possibility. In December 2011, Trump was suggested as a possible Vice Presidential selection by Michele Bachmann. Bachmann has since suspended her presidential campaign.
Nimrata Nikki Randhawa Haley (Born on January 20, 1972), an American politician, is the 116th and current Governor of South Carolina. A member of the Republican Party, Haley represented Lexington County in the South Carolina House of Representatives from 2005 to 2010.
In the 2010 South Carolina gubernatorial election, Haley was endorsed for the Republican nomination by former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, and the Tea Party movement. On June 8, 2010, she finished first in the four-way Republican primary election with 49% of the vote, but fell short of the 50% required to avoid a runoff election. Haley won the runoff on June 22 with 65%, and proceeded to win the general election by a 51–47% margin.
Haley is the first woman to serve as Governor of South Carolina, and the second Indian-American governor in the country. At the age of 40, Haley is the youngest current governor in the US. Haley signed a law cracking down on illegal immigration in June 2011. She also supports a law requiring photo identification at the polls.

Plot: HELL is a series of short vignettes, interpreting the nine circles of sin from Dante's INFERNO, with nine different women. Guided by the Lady Dis (the emotional embodiment of Hell), nine women experience treachery, fraud, violence, heresy, anger, greed, gluttony, and lust, leaving us to wander among the crowded streets of Limbo. They do not address extremes, but the every day reactions, mistakes, and willingness, sometimes blindness to actions deemed as sin. A major collaborative undertaking, HELL was shot in various cities all over the world from London to New York, Sao Paulo to Santa Fe. Each vignette has a unique cinematic style, everything from the chaotic horror film to Neo Italian realism.

Genres: Thriller, War,The needing of needles, prick my skin
Cold blood is boiling, start the binge
Aggressive injection, the track marks run
Intended supression, finale has begun
COLD DEATH - awaits me now
INFECT - dissect my brain devoured
I'm needing another shot to please
My poison my life-line, it drops me to my knees
INJECT
ADDICTION
Straight to my jugular vein
TO WITHDRAWAL
I CAN'T TAKE
I NEED MORE
Please shoot me up, numb the pain
No dimebags
No quaters
I'll take the gram
The heroin
Quick fix
A mainline slam
Speed ball
It's rolling
Turns all the time
Injesting
Infesting
It infiltrates my mind
QUICK PULSE
My heart can't take
POUNDING
Surrounding all my veins
I'm nauseous
And playing the basket case
Die slowly
Die painful
On my strung-out face
TO INJECT
ADDICTION
INFECTION
Straight to my jugular vein
TO WITHDRAWAL
I CAN'T TAKE
I NEED MORE
Please shoot me up, numb the pain
Hello world, I'm your residential drug pusher
You kids, they buy from me
Base of coke, a slam of seed
They know I've got the cure
Just a punk, I'm untouchable by the law
Court room catastrophe
A simple slap upon my wrist
And then they set me free
Body cold I pound away on his chest in fear
Empty lungs, a cardiac arrest is evidently clear
No one told me that these drugs I take would kill
They just front away and then send you the bill
Cold displeasured face
Look of pain, look of waste
I'e seen the damages done
Too many times I've witnessed, I've witnessed it run
Run through your veins alive
Feeding on your mind
Controlling you from inside
No longer with us now
Pusher's voice it calls you, cower now
Come with me child, child of fate
A shot to numb your feelings
Embrace this death, a quick passage
Your pulse hits the ceiling
No need for ties, no ties to life
The life you've left to linger
It was your choice
So hold your voice
