Platy Pygmalion Eliza Doolittle
In the platy Pygmalion Eliza Doolittle was just a poor flower girl who couldn't speak proper English. One rainy day a young boy by the name of
Freddy ran into Eliza, trampling her flowers. Eliza then goes into a fit of rage for the money she will lose over the flowers. That was the moment
she was discovered by Henry, a scientist of phonetics and Pickering a linguist of Indian dialect. They men were intrigued by the way she spoke and
Henry began to make fun and said that he could teach her proper English. Eliza then went to Henry's home and took him up on his proposition.
Henry and Pickering went on a six month journey to train Eliza to speak so proper that she could pass her off as a duchess at an ambassador's garden
party. Once the six months... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

Feminism In Pygmalion
Pygmalion
(...through a Feminist Lens)
"Pygmalion was written to challenge the class system, traditional stereotypes and the audience's own views."
To begin with, George Bernard Shaw was an early and outspoken advocate for the rights of women, and as a playwright he created some of the most
distinctive women characters of his day. He was deeply influenced in this aspect of his writing by Henrik Ibsen.
This play deals with a lot many themes. To cite a few: Rewriting the tale of Cinderella and Sleeping beauty, Class, language and phonetics and
Independence.
From the very beginning of the play, we can see the unequal relationship between Mr. Higgins (the man) and Eliza (thewoman). This difference can be
seen by the parallelism between these two ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
She retorts back by replying, "You want me back only to pick up your slippers and put up with your tempers and fetch and carry for you." Eliza is
mere domestic helper for Higgins, a helping hand to Mrs. Pearce even if Eliza can be much more than that. This is the crude reality of the patriarchal
setup. Women, how much ever is qualified, is better than the opposite gender when it comes to education, the opposite sex will always take her as a
house maid or a person working under him.
Eliza, in the climax scene vulnerably asks Higgins, why he made her a sophisticated Duchess if her never cared for her, and why did not he thought of
the trouble it would make for her, on which Higgins shocking reply says:
"Would the world ever have been made if its makes had been afraid of making trouble?" (Act V, 127) Making life means making troubles. He still
finds faults with Eliza,' you are an idiot I waste the treasures of my Miltonic mind by spreading them before you." Higgins thus suffers from
intellectual snobbery. He belongs to the world of Shakespeare and Milton.
All throughout the play, Higgins behave rude with Eliza. Eliza, in the last act as a representative of all women trapped in patriarchal setup says the

Homework Persuasive Essay
In the article "Special Topic / The Case For and Against Homework" by Robert J. Marzano and Debra J. Pickering, the popular argument of whether or
not homework should be assigned in school is thoroughly explored. While most authors might choose a clear side upon which they would argue,
Marzano and Pickering present their information in the form of two separate assertions, with a final concluding thought that combines the two cases.
They determine the value of homework by looking at various factors, such as abundance, necessity, and content. An excerpt from the article reads,
"Teachers should not abandon homework. Instead, they should improve its instructional quality," (Marzano and Pickering) which is essentiallythe
conclusion that is reached. However, there are convincing aspects to each argument, which ultimately allows the reader to form his or her own opinion
on the matter. Through the use of credible sources, effective reasoning, and substantiatedlogic, Marzano and Pickering build a well–crafted argument
that engages their audience.
Before the conflicting cases are introduced, the article gives a brief history of the debate for and against homework. The authors explain that
throughout the twentieth century there have been several instances of citizens forming and changing their beliefs on the matter. This use of historical
evidence can also be attributed to the authors' credibility. Marzano and Pickering go on to explain how the homework debate has evolved over the

G. B. Shaw's "Pygmalion"
Like all of Shaw's great dramatic creations, Pygmalion is a richly complex play. It combines a central story of the transformation of a young woman
with elements of myth, fairy tale, and romance, while also combining an interesting plot with an exploration of social identity, the power of science,
relations between men and women, and other issues.
Pygmalion is one of Shaw's most popular plays as well as one of his most straightforward ones. The form has none of the complexity that we find in
Heartbreak House or Saint Joan, nor are the ideas in Pygmalion nearly as profound as the ideas in any of Shaw's other major works. It can be

An even more obvious example of this id the epilogue to Pygmalion: 'the rest of the story need not to be shewn in action...etc.' where is clear that the
dramatist has allowed the novelist to take over the story that he no longer wishes to handle.
The first impression we get of Eliza's is a poor flower girl that has a very strong, whiny personality. "I ain't done nothing wrong by speaking to the
gentleman. I've a right to sell flowers if I keep off the kerb." This is our first view of Eliza standing up for her self and not being outspoken. This
foreshadows a girl that would not be good in a relationship because in the time this book is set, a woman was to obey the man and let him do the big
talk.
While Eliza in a gloomily and rainy evening is trying to sell flowers out of S. Paul's church, a man have been observing her and taking down notes on
a notebook. Eliza was conversating with two women, a mother and daughter, who were waiting for a taxi under the shelter of the church's portico.
Their conversation begins when Freddy, the son who is looking for the taxi, carelessly bumps into the flower girl. She attempts to get the mother to
buy the flowers her son has damaged, and is successful. She then tries to sell her flowers to another gentleman, when someone in the crowd warns her

Pickering V. Board Of Education Case Study
All schools should ensure that we protect the speech rights of their staff members. In this course, previously we learned how complicated speech
rights can be, especially in this day of age, when more people are using social media to express their concerns. As educators, we need to know when we
are protected and we also need to be careful as we express our concerns about our school's or district policies. Usually our staff handbook has guidelines
and procedures as to how we should communicate with news media outlets.
In order to better interpret this scenario, we first need to look another case that resembles this scenario. The case related to this scenario, Pickering v.

Ethnographic Interview Essay
Ethnographic studies can give insight into the way that stereotypes are seen and perceived in the real world. Audrey Shalinsky defines
ethnographic fieldwork as a "scientific and artistic" approach to the description and analysis of cultural systems (Shalinsky, 968). I chose to do the
ethnographic interview as I wanted to learn about someone else's experiences and hear a different point of view than my own. I interviewed one
of my Cambodian friends who asked if their name could be omitted for privacy purposes. He and I met at a Starbucks so that I could conduct my
interview in a relaxed setting where my interviewee would feel comfortable and open to talk about his experiences as someone from Southeast
Asian descent. Throughout my interview, I asked him what stereotypes he has encountered and what stereotype he himself projects onto others. He
talked about how he goes about his day to day life and how that causes him to be stereotyped in a certain way and the way that he makes
assumptions about others based on their lifestyles and appearances. I wanted to mainly focus on the ways that he has been racially stereotyped, but I
also wanted to be able to analyze any other stereotypes that people may have developed towards him. Also, I asked him how other people

The Majority Of Male Characters
The majority of male characters in Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion appear to be fundamentally flawed in some important way. Freddy Eynsford–Hill is
raised as a gentleman and, thus, is a "fool" who has trouble hailing a cab, let alone finding any suitable occupation for himself. Henry Higgins is
well–educated but ill–mannered, alienating him from society due to his inconsideration for others. Alfred Doolittle appears to lack any sort of
morals and "seems equally free from fear and conscience." The only male figure who stands out is Colonel Pickering, who seems talented,
respectful, and compassionate compared to his competition. Even so, Pickering is only superficially a gentleman; his concern, respect, and
treatment for others are overshadowed by his lack of growth and the play's criticism of gentlemanly behavior as a whole. Pickering's true concern
and compassion for others, particularly Eliza, distinguish him from the other male characters. His first words to Eliza are, "won't you sit down?"
(Shaw II, 39). This courtesy, which Higgins does not extend, rightfully suggests that he "thought and felt" about her "as if [she] were something better
than a scullerymaid," much to Higgins' chagrin (V, 122). At the same time, Pickering is not "infatuated" unlike Freddy (V, 130), who laughably spends
most of his nights on Wimpole Street because "it's the only place where [he's] happy" (IV, 106). All Eliza wants is "a little kindness," and Pickering,

The question that is baffling psychologists is whether homosexuality is genetic or the result of upbringing. If nature or nurture (or both) are involved
where does personal choice play a part in adopting this life style?
Nature Arguments
It is sometimes claimed that people can be naturally homosexual. It is thought that homosexuals possess different hormonal mechanisms, brain
structure or genotype. These biological explanations may not be unrelated as genes do lay the blueprint out for hormones which in turn influence the
body structure.
At one stage in history it was thought that homosexuals were hormonally different. This theory was abandoned when hormone assays became available
and accurate measurements could be made. (Saunders and Pickering, 1997)
It was then thought that Brain structure was the cause. In 1984 evidence was found for a sexually dimorphic hypothalamic nucleus. However this did
not give a link between size and sexual orientation though, so more research was needed. In 1991 it was reported that the hypothalamic nucleus was

Analysis Of George Bernard Shaw 's Pygmalion
Social standing is central to the plot of George Bernard Shaw's play "Pygmalion". The portrayal of class identity in Shaw's play appears to be a
criticism of the distinctions between high society and the poorer classes in Victorian England. Shaw's aim was to portray how the upper–crust of
Victorian society viewed the lower classes, as evidenced by Higgins' treatment of Eliza upon her first visit to his laboratory; Higgins treats her as
though she is too stupid to understand that he is insulting her. The assumption is that the wealthy view the lower classes as being somehow lesser.
So what is it that Shaw is trying to impart upon the reader? Shaw appeared to show open disdain not just for the upper class of society but for
society in general, and Pygmalion may be interpreted as an open criticism of class distinctions in Victorian England. Class distinctions are made
abundantly clear in Shaw's "Pygmalion." Eliza is representative of Shaw's view of the English working class of the day: Crude, crass, and seemingly
unintelligent yet worthy of pity. Equal criticism is leveled at the upper classes, who pass judgement upon the poor precipitated by their appearance and
mannerisms. Higgins and Pickering's attitude towards Eliza is one of derision, stemming from their difference in social status. For instance, Higgins'
open mockery of Eliza's speech: "You see this creature with her kerbstone English: the English that will keep her in the gutter to the end of her days."

The Softer Side of Resistance
The Softer Side of Resistance
Early Twentieth Century Italy, like the early Twentieth Century in the United States, was a time of promise for women's progress. The issues forming
the women's rights platform seem basic and, especially because of our current placement in history, not too radical: the right to divorce, educational and
employment rights, and perhaps most extreme, voting rights. In the early years of the Twentieth Century (although processes there were different from
our concepts of democratic voting), some of these issues had even been brought to the ballot (Pickering–Iazza, Mothers, p.38). And contrary to popular
perception, during the early years of Mussolini's rule (which lasted from 1922–1943), public support for ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
42). True to its totalitarian character, this plan brought the state even further into the peoples' private lives. The Fascist government went as far as
passing into law a bachelor tax. All eligible men aged twenty–six to sixty–five paid exorbitant taxes if they chose to stay single (De Grazia, p.69). The
party outlawed birth control, held national childbearing contests, created monetary incentives for having at least seven children, and campaigned for a
revision of beauty standards (De Grazia, ch. 3,4). Pursuing a goal that would mean more confining gender roles, for women and men alike, Mussolini
went all out to get his way.
In accordance with these ideals of womanhood, Mussolini saw to it that women's education was tailored to their future roles as mothers and keepers of
the house. Now, if wealthy enough to be in school, women were taught, even at the university level, how to keep a home (Pickering–Iazzi, Mothers p.
34).
Mussolini also eliminated the most public display of women's potential political power, the right to vote. One would assume that from the outset of
his rule, the Duce would strongly oppose this form of liberation for women. But his position wavered on this issue as much as it did in several other
areas. In 1919, he answered in an interview: "I am a supporter of

The Musical, My Fair Lady Directed By George Cukor
Critical Review This critical review is about the musical, My Fair Lady, directed by George Cukor based on the play Pygmalion by George
Bernard Shaw. This musical altered some of the scenes and added new ones. The basic storyline of the text is about a young flower girl that runs
into a phonetics teacher who claims that he could sell her as a duchess. The flower girl, which is later known to be Eliza, takes up the offer and
starts speech lessons with the teacher, Mr. Higgins. He coachers her night and day to prepare her for a race and an embassy ball where she will
meet royalty. Mr. Higgins is also acquainted in the beginning with one of his respected colleagues who also specialize in phonetics, Colonel
Pickering. Although, Higgins treats her as "baggage" he soon gets attached to her and her ways. Colonel Pickering however, treats her as a
respectable lady. She has a great success at the ball but is not recognized for it, which disappoints her. She decides to run away to Mrs. Higgins
house where she found by Higgins and Pickering. She organizes her thoughts with Higgins and says she will never come back to them but at the
end of the movie, not the play, she comes back to Higgins and Pickering. The main play and musical is based off of a similar storyline which goes

Impacts of Climate Change on Australia Alps’ Ski Industry
The changing nature of snow cover as a result of alpine climate change is a modern phenomenon that climate scientists are beginning to understand.
Declining snow depth and duration have serious implications for Australia's ski industry, in particular the longevity of the industry. This essay
discusses the impacts of alpine climate change on snow cover, adaption strategies to sustain the industry's economy as well as the unsustainable nature
of snowmaking as a long term solution. Limitations on water and energy resource make snowmaking problematic as a substitute for natural snow. The
essay highlights the unsustainability of snowmaking as a short–term solution, and raises concerns of the longevity of the ski industry.
Currently, the Australian ski industry comprises of ten operational ski resorts (Figure 1) with "0.15% of the continent" (Green and Pickering 2009, p.
271) regularly receiving snow due to the low attitude of mountains. Consequently, decline in snow cover on top of limited snow availability pose
significant difficulties to the longevity of the ski industry.

Advantages And Disadvantages Of Pickering Emulsion
Pickering Emulsions: Particles with a difference
Pickering Emulsion is an emulsion stabilised by solid particles located on the interface between two phases. This type of emulsion was named after
S.U. Pickering, who described the phenomenon in 1907, although the effect was first recognized by Walter Ramsden in 1903Pickeringemulsion
utilizes solid particles alone as stabilizers, which accumulate at the interface between two immiscible liquids (typically denoted as oil and water
phase) and stabilize droplets against coalescence. Solid particles are used as stabilisers due to various advantages: (i)solid particles reduce the
possibility of coalescence, bringing about higher stability to emulsions; (ii) many solid particles can endow as–prepared materials useful characteristics
such as conductivity, responsiveness, porosity, and so on; (iii) some food–grade solid particles have lower toxicity, thus leading to higher safety for in
vivo usage.
The basic principle of the process involves formation of shell around the oil drop or water drop.

If one of the liquids wets solid particles more than the other one, the better wetting liquid becomes the continuous phase and the other becomes the
dispersed phase. O/W emulsions will come into being if the three–phase contact angle Оё (angle at the three–phase boundary of solid particles,
continuous phase and dispersed phase) is less than 90В° (e.g., silica, clay), and W/O emulsions should form if Оё > 90В° (e.g., carbon black).
However, only when Оё is relatively close to 90В° can the particle effectively act as a Pickering stabilizer. The particles tend to remain dispersed in
either phase if they are too hydrophilic (low Оё) or too hydrophobic (high

Comparison Of Pygmalion And My Fair Lady
The 1964 award–winning film My Fair Lady is a musical adaptation of George Bernard Shaw's stage production Pygmalion (first performed in the year
of 1913). Taking place in Edwardian London, My Fair Lady depicts Professor Henry Higgins (portrayed by Rex Harrison), a misogynistic phonetics
professor, and Colonel Hugh Pickering (Wilfrid Hyde–White), the author of Spoken Sanskrit. Professor Higgins, after coming out of a theatre and
hearing Eliza shouting in her harsh 'Cockney' accent, places a bet with Colonel Pickering that he can take the Cockney working–class girl and make
her presentable in high society within six months. The working–class girl, Eliza Doolittle (portrayed by Audrey Hepburn), agrees to speech lessons
from Professor Higgins to improve her job prospects. Eliza grudgingly agrees to Professor Higgins' lessons after flying into an angry outburst when
a man points out the professor copying down her speech. Despite Professor Higgins treats Eliza as a lesser being, his acquaintance Colonel Pickering
treats her with constant respect and kindness, therefore treating her as an equal. It is Pickering's treating Eliza not as a lesser being, but as an equal
that allows Eliza to flourish and succeed. In the film adaptation of Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion, the most influential character is Colonel Pickering. As a
gentleman, a colonel and an academic who studies Indian dialects, Pickering shares Higgins' interest in linguistics, however he is not as extreme in his

He called her 'Miss Doolittle' after chapter 2, and tried to treat her as a lady. However, Higgins did notchange his attitude to Eliza.
Her pronunciation and behavior became more likely to a lady, but there were still some mistakes at the meeting in Mrs. Higgins' house. Eliza met
three people again when she met those people in chapter 1. They thought Eliza a little bit weird, but they reacted to Eliza same as other ladies. It was
quite successful achievement for Eliza. Finally, at the ambassador's garden party, she acted perfectly as a lady. Her English and attitude was too
excellent, so everybody thought that she's princess. There was no doubt that she is a lady, not a flower girl. She finally changed into a lady.
However, it did not really affect the relationship between Eliza and Professor Higgins. While Colonel Pickering treated her as a lady, Higgins still
did not care about her, because she was still a flower girl for him. There is a nice expression how Professor Higgins thinks about caring Eliza; "And I
treat duchess as if she was a flower girl". She felt upset about him for this reason, and she could not endure anymore, so she left his house after arguing
with Higgins.

Quartering Act Of 1765 Dbq Analysis
The Quartering Act of 1765 is directly relevant to Chapter 6. It is relevant to Chapter 6 because it is a response to the huge war debt against an
already strained budget. George III's main priority was that he wanted to maintain the size of the army. The colonists were not the biggest fans of
this army. The Quartering Act (1765) was one of four pieces of legislation that forced the colonies and colonists to contribute and help with the
upkeep of the large army(Oakes et al., 2015, pg. 167). Analysis: The Quartering Act of 1765 is best described from parliament as an act, "...punishing
mutiny and desertion, and for the better payment of the army and their quarters; several regulations are made and enacted for the better government
of the army, and their observing strict discipline, and for providing quarters for the army, and carriages on marches and other necessary occasions, and
inflicting penalties on offenders against the same act"(Pickering, 1765). In other words, the American colonists were required to house British soldiers
and pay for their food, in order to keep the standing army. The textbook defines it as, "the Quartering Act (1765), required the colonies to house troops
in public buildings and provide them with firewood, candles, and drink"(Oakes... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

The Importance Of The Internet Speech
In the majority of expression cases, educators have challenged reprisals for their speech outside the classroom including their Internet speech. During
the 1970s and early 1980s, courts relied on the Pickering guidelines in striking down a variety of restrictions on teachers' rights to express views on
matters of public concern. Since the early 1980s, however, courts have seemed increasingly inclined to view teachers' and other public employees'
expression as relating to private employment disputes rather than to matters of public concern. Many courts relied on Connick in broadly interpreting
what falls under the category of unprotected private grievances. To illustrate, courts considered the following types of expression to be unprotected:
discussing salaries during a break; filing a grievance about being assigned a job–sharing teaching position; accusing the superintendent of inciting
student disturbances; sending sarcastic, critical memoranda to school officials; protesting unfavorable performance evaluations; and commenting about
class size and lack of discipline. Yet, when courts have applied the Pickering balancing test, they often distinguished whether disruption to school
operations was truly caused by the employee's speech versus the impermissible heckler's veto–that is, courts have analyzed whether the disruption was
caused by outsiders attempting to silence the speech instead of the speech itself. A New York school district terminated a teacher for

Benefits Of Multiculturalism In Canada
Since the era of jetliners, firsts introduced in the 1950s, new interactions have resulted in a more globalised world, which has increased relationship
between the many countries and cultures. The relationship between the countries makes cultural diversity even more important for Canada and
Ontario. Multiculturalism has some opponent; however, the positive benefits for Canada and Ontario are economic and cultural.
Opponent of multiculturalism argues that the policies promote the divisiveness of Canada and are taking over land that should be available to all
Canadians. The former Minister for Multiculturalism and Citizenship states that opponent of multiculturalism makes immigrant hyphenated Canadian
instead of Canadian (Weiner, 1991). This happened when the Hindu community tried to build a waterfront cemetery in the GTA. Finding a city

Contrary to the claim of the opponent that multiculturalism seeks to create hyphenated–Canadian, multiculturalism seeks the opposite, according to a
former cabinet minister: "it does so not to keep Canadians apart from one another; it does so because a rich and broad cultural heritage is something in
which all Canadians share, individually and collectively [...]". (Weiner, 1991) Cultural diversity does not weaken Canadian nor does it divide Canadian.
Cultural diversity has benefited since industrial lands have changed to be more welcoming. The construction of Pearson Airport has led to major
industrial development in Etobicoke, which changed with the Hindu temple, the only non–industrial building in that neighborhood. (Lista, p. 67)

Also,
Higgins and Eliza have moments where they begin to sing about the short lines Higgins has Eliza reading in order to improve her pronunciation
(Levin, 1964). Therefore, the play and the film contrast with the use of music because the book does not implement the musical approach as the film
does.
On the other hand, the characters in Pygmalion and My Fair Lady perform both similar and different actions compared to one or the other.
Additionally, however both the play and the film mostly shared similar actions rather than being unalike. For example, Eliza says in the final act of
the play that Pickering "treats a flower girl as if she was a duchess" (Shaw, 1916,

As the district court decided correctly when Mr. Molson had proven he spoke as a citizen on a matter of public concern, his speech would be protected
under the First Amendment because the memorandum did not adversely affect the Center's workplace which would have outweighed his free speech
interests. "When an employee speaks as a citizen addressing a matter of public concern, the First Amendment requires a delicate balancing of the
competing interests surrounding the speech and its consequences." Garcetti, 547 U.S. at 423; Waters, 511 U.S. at 668; Pickering, 391 U.S. at 568. The

Platy Pygmalion Eliza Doolittle

  • 1. Platy Pygmalion Eliza Doolittle In the platy Pygmalion Eliza Doolittle was just a poor flower girl who couldn't speak proper English. One rainy day a young boy by the name of Freddy ran into Eliza, trampling her flowers. Eliza then goes into a fit of rage for the money she will lose over the flowers. That was the moment she was discovered by Henry, a scientist of phonetics and Pickering a linguist of Indian dialect. They men were intrigued by the way she spoke and Henry began to make fun and said that he could teach her proper English. Eliza then went to Henry's home and took him up on his proposition. Henry and Pickering went on a six month journey to train Eliza to speak so proper that she could pass her off as a duchess at an ambassador's garden party. Once the six months...

  • 2. Feminism In Pygmalion Pygmalion (...through a Feminist Lens) "Pygmalion was written to challenge the class system, traditional stereotypes and the audience's own views." To begin with, George Bernard Shaw was an early and outspoken advocate for the rights of women, and as a playwright he created some of the most distinctive women characters of his day. He was deeply influenced in this aspect of his writing by Henrik Ibsen. This play deals with a lot many themes. To cite a few: Rewriting the tale of Cinderella and Sleeping beauty, Class, language and phonetics and Independence. From the very beginning of the play, we can see the unequal relationship between Mr. Higgins (the man) and Eliza (thewoman). This difference can be seen by the parallelism between these two ...

Eliza is mere domestic helper for Higgins, a helping hand to Mrs. Pearce even if Eliza can be much more than that. This is the crude reality of the patriarchal setup. Women, how much ever is qualified, is better than the opposite gender when it comes to education, the opposite sex will always take her as a house maid or a person working under him. Eliza, in the climax scene vulnerably asks Higgins, why he made her a sophisticated Duchess if her never cared for her, and why did not he thought of the trouble it would make for her, on which Higgins shocking reply says: "Would the world ever have been made if its makes had been afraid of making trouble?" (Act V, 127) Making life means making troubles. He still finds faults with Eliza,' you are an idiot I waste the treasures of my Miltonic mind by spreading them before you." Higgins thus suffers from intellectual snobbery. He belongs to the world of Shakespeare and Milton. All throughout the play, Higgins behave rude with Eliza. Eliza, in the last act as a representative of all women trapped in patriarchal setup says the below quote to Higgins, who is the representative of all the patriarchal men in the ...

  • 3. Homework Persuasive Essay In the article "Special Topic / The Case For and Against Homework" by Robert J. Marzano and Debra J. Pickering, the popular argument of whether or not homework should be assigned in school is thoroughly explored. While most authors might choose a clear side upon which they would argue, Marzano and Pickering present their information in the form of two separate assertions, with a final concluding thought that combines the two cases. They determine the value of homework by looking at various factors, such as abundance, necessity, and content. An excerpt from the article reads, "Teachers should not abandon homework. Instead, they should improve its instructional quality," (Marzano and Pickering) which is essentiallythe conclusion that is reached. However, there are convincing aspects to each argument, which ultimately allows the reader to form his or her own opinion on the matter. Through the use of credible sources, effective reasoning, and substantiatedlogic, Marzano and Pickering build a well–crafted argument that engages their audience. Before the conflicting cases are introduced, the article gives a brief history of the debate for and against homework. The authors explain that throughout the twentieth century there have been several instances of citizens forming and changing their beliefs on the matter. This use of historical evidence can also be attributed to the authors' credibility. Marzano and Pickering go on to explain how the homework debate has evolved over the ...

  • 4. Why Do Misinterpreters Use Satire? What do fool think is going on? The members of the public who have a shortage of capacity, satire can develop a frustrating, unpleasant, sometimes an embarrassing encounter as satire can be misled or pointless if misinterpreted. Dangers of misinterpretations have been evident in society through The Weekly: Nation Security, Summer Heights High, and Chaser: Breaching APEC Security. The texts shows change the way we see things as we realise that we are no given the full story and are presented in a humorous way for us to look at the issues differently.

Mrs Allen from the library has third degree burns". Although, the enthusiastic drama teacher creates humour in the issue the audience is also alarmed. The reason for that is the issues the Mr G says are major problems. As a result we feel guilt for laughing at the problem that has a deeper message underneath the issue. Tom Shales a Washington Post Staff Writer expresses "If it weren't for such things as publicity, program listings and, yes, critical reviews, Summer Heights High might have been able to sneak up on the national audience and convincingly be viewed as a nonfiction series. The show is such an accurate spoof of a reality–television documentary that viewers could initially have mistaken it for the real thing."

  • 5. G. B. Shaw's "Pygmalion" Like all of Shaw's great dramatic creations, Pygmalion is a richly complex play. It combines a central story of the transformation of a young woman with elements of myth, fairy tale, and romance, while also combining an interesting plot with an exploration of social identity, the power of science, relations between men and women, and other issues. Pygmalion is one of Shaw's most popular plays as well as one of his most straightforward ones. The form has none of the complexity that we find in Heartbreak House or Saint Joan, nor are the ideas in Pygmalion nearly as profound as the ideas in any of Shaw's other major works. It can be considerated an issue of language. This play was written by George Bernard Shaw in 1912, presents a comic ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... An even more obvious example of this id the epilogue to Pygmalion: 'the rest of the story need not to be shewn in action...etc.' where is clear that the dramatist has allowed the novelist to take over the story that he no longer wishes to handle. The first impression we get of Eliza's is a poor flower girl that has a very strong, whiny personality. "I ain't done nothing wrong by speaking to the gentleman. I've a right to sell flowers if I keep off the kerb." This is our first view of Eliza standing up for her self and not being outspoken. This foreshadows a girl that would not be good in a relationship because in the time this book is set, a woman was to obey the man and let him do the big talk. While Eliza in a gloomily and rainy evening is trying to sell flowers out of S. Paul's church, a man have been observing her and taking down notes on a notebook. Eliza was conversating with two women, a mother and daughter, who were waiting for a taxi under the shelter of the church's portico. Their conversation begins when Freddy, the son who is looking for the taxi, carelessly bumps into the flower girl. She attempts to get the mother to buy the flowers her son has damaged, and is successful. She then tries to sell her flowers to another gentleman, when someone in the crowd warns her that a man is taking notes on what she has been saying. She becomes hysterical, believing the man ...

  • 6. Marijuana In Marijuana Essay Should Marijuana be legalized in Texas The controversy over Marijuana has gone back in forth for much time, but the growth of Marijuana use has grown rapidly throughout the years. With multiple states legalizing marijuana many people that live in Texas ask, why has Texas not legalized marijuana? Though this question goes often unanswered to many the difficulty of the answer will continue as well. A number of states have legalized marijuana for medical use only and the results of this have made many lives worth living for many people across the nation. Nigel McCourry is a former U.S Marine, he was deployed to Iraq for seven months in 2004. After coming back to the United States he could not seem to get away from what he experienced. After time went on with everyday being a struggle of motivation to get out of bed, move on, continue to live as before, and sleep without waking up through the night with dreams recalling what he witnessed in Iraq. Seeking a solution to his nightmare of a life he enrolled in the study of MDMA–assisted psychotherapy. What he did not expect was that the journey back to a normal life would start with illegal drugs. In a short two years he experienced sleeping through the night without wake up calls of the past and shortly after the full healing experience began.

  • 7. Pickering V. Board Of Education Case Study All schools should ensure that we protect the speech rights of their staff members. In this course, previously we learned how complicated speech rights can be, especially in this day of age, when more people are using social media to express their concerns. As educators, we need to know when we are protected and we also need to be careful as we express our concerns about our school's or district policies. Usually our staff handbook has guidelines and procedures as to how we should communicate with news media outlets. In order to better interpret this scenario, we first need to look another case that resembles this scenario. The case related to this scenario, Pickering v. Board of Education (1983) upheld that teachers' speech, just like that of any other citizen, is protected when the interest of the speech does not cause harm or create false statements.

This would be important for me to know, as some districts have policies regarding teachers and the media. I would also like to see the districts policies. The last part of information needed is more information regarding the teacher. Was the teacher transferred for other reasons, did she have other issues with her supervisors? In case, the school was just trying to push her out, and this was an opportunity for them to do that. Overall, based on the only information we are given, this scenario refers to teachers' first amendment and freedom of speech. I would side with the teacher and I would encourage her to appeal her transfer. I would also suggest for her to truly understand her rights, as she would be walking a fine line. If her appeal is granted, I would suggest for her to continue to build her relationship with her supervisors, so that any future issues can be avoided.

During the return along the Centenary Way, there are superb views across the Vale of Pickering to the North York Moors.

Christianity reached this area in the eighth century AD, and since that time the Christian faith has endured here, with a church in every village.

  • 9. Leadership Qualities In 'George Washington And Frank R.... Leadership is shown or expressed in different ways. George Washington and Frank R. Stockton have shown leadership qualities in their articles "Thanksgiving Proclamation" and "The Lady or The Tiger." Even though both articles show leadership, George Washington is more effective demonstrating leadership. George Washington's "Thanksgiving Proclamation" speech in 1789 shows qualities of a leader better than the king in Frank R. Stockton article "The Lady or The Tiger" did. This selection is more effective at communicating the author's message is that "Thanksgiving Proclamation" is important because it has a lot of speeches that are communicated the message effectively. George Washingtonarticle "Thanksgiving Proclamation" demonstrated how the qualities of a leader could be persuasive. According to George Washington, "Thanksgiving Proclamation", it states "Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these states to the service of that great and glorious.The civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed; and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us."(Washington pg 150) This shows us that we, people, trusted and believed that General Washington was right about having a day of giving thank.

  • 10. Ethnographic Interview Essay Ethnographic studies can give insight into the way that stereotypes are seen and perceived in the real world. Audrey Shalinsky defines ethnographic fieldwork as a "scientific and artistic" approach to the description and analysis of cultural systems (Shalinsky, 968). I chose to do the ethnographic interview as I wanted to learn about someone else's experiences and hear a different point of view than my own. I interviewed one of my Cambodian friends who asked if their name could be omitted for privacy purposes. He and I met at a Starbucks so that I could conduct my interview in a relaxed setting where my interviewee would feel comfortable and open to talk about his experiences as someone from Southeast Asian descent. Throughout my interview, I asked him what stereotypes he has encountered and what stereotype he himself projects onto others. He talked about how he goes about his day to day life and how that causes him to be stereotyped in a certain way and the way that he makes assumptions about others based on their lifestyles and appearances. I wanted to mainly focus on the ways that he has been racially stereotyped, but I also wanted to be able to analyze any other stereotypes that people may have developed towards him. Also, I asked him how other people stereotyping him affect him and why he thinks that other people create and use stereotypes to define people that they do not know.

  • 13. The Majority Of Male Characters The majority of male characters in Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion appear to be fundamentally flawed in some important way. Freddy Eynsford–Hill is raised as a gentleman and, thus, is a "fool" who has trouble hailing a cab, let alone finding any suitable occupation for himself. Henry Higgins is well–educated but ill–mannered, alienating him from society due to his inconsideration for others. Alfred Doolittle appears to lack any sort of morals and "seems equally free from fear and conscience." The only male figure who stands out is Colonel Pickering, who seems talented, respectful, and compassionate compared to his competition. Even so, Pickering is only superficially a gentleman; his concern, respect, and treatment for others are overshadowed by his lack of growth and the play's criticism of gentlemanly behavior as a whole. Pickering's true concern and compassion for others, particularly Eliza, distinguish him from the other male characters. His first words to Eliza are, "won't you sit down?" (Shaw II, 39). This courtesy, which Higgins does not extend, rightfully suggests that he "thought and felt" about her "as if [she] were something better than a scullerymaid," much to Higgins' chagrin (V, 122). At the same time, Pickering is not "infatuated" unlike Freddy (V, 130), who laughably spends most of his nights on Wimpole Street because "it's the only place where [he's] happy" (IV, 106).

The introduction of the 'slowing the flow scheme' provides a new approach to flood management, the authorisation and construction of several natural measures aim to reduce the frequency of future floods in Pickering. Within this report, the effectiveness and geomorphic impact of each measure will be discussed, in addition to an attempt to determine the longevity of each measure by means of fieldwork and other literature. 2. Implementation of Measures 2.1 Large Woody Debris dams (LWD) A large woody debris dam (LWD) is a framework composed of logs and branches that bestride the water channel and are secured in place by wiring and wedging the logs to posts or stumps along the bankside.

However, unless LWD is obstructing more than 10% of the cross–sectional area of a river it will not have an impact on water levels (Trayer, 2000).The 104 dams surveyed and modelled within the Pickering Beck catchment were estimated to provide a total of 1,020 m3 storage for a 1 in 25 year flood on the provision that there was sufficient porosity in order to prevent overflow during higher frequency events. The flood storage potential carries on developing for lesser frequency flood events for most dams but at a very slow pace. This reflects their 'swamping' at increasingly higher flows (Forestry Commission, 2015). Storage capacities are predicted to largely rise with increasing flood flows as a result of more water being forced onto the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 15.

Throughout both stories, the person receives a complete makeover of their appearance and behavior. However, the two stories differ in context and in certain plot elements. InPygmalion, a play written by George Bernard Shaw, Eliza Doolittle is poor girl selling flowers on the street, but she desires to work in a flower shop like a proper lady. Due to her poor upbringing, she has little manners and a horrible accent that is hardly comprehensible. One rainy night, Eliza is selling flowers and runs into Freddy Eynsford Hill and his family.

Elliot believes he is being prepared to become a representative for his beer company when, in fact, he is being prepared for Congress. Eliza is transformed into a duchess while Elliot is converted into a politician. Throughout the story, Hannah Higgins also begins to be change by Elliot while Henry remains the same arrogant snob he was in the beginning. In The Makeover, Hannah is the only one to fall in love with Elliot, and they end up being together.

Some churches have accepted homosexuality but many still do not accept homosexuals, saying it is unnatural and not what 'god' intended of man.

(Gross, McIlveen, Coolican, Clamp and Russell, 2000) The question that is baffling psychologists is whether homosexuality is genetic or the result of upbringing. If nature or nurture (or both) are involved where does personal choice play a part in adopting this life style? Nature Arguments It is sometimes claimed that people can be naturally homosexual. It is thought that homosexuals possess different hormonal mechanisms, brain structure or genotype. These biological explanations may not be unrelated as genes do lay the blueprint out for hormones which in turn influence the body structure. At one stage in history it was thought that homosexuals were hormonally different. This theory was abandoned when hormone assays became available and accurate measurements could be made. (Saunders and Pickering, 1997) It was then thought that Brain structure was the cause. In 1984 evidence was found for a sexually dimorphic hypothalamic nucleus. However this did not give a link between size and sexual orientation though, so more research was needed. In 1991 it was reported that the hypothalamic nucleus was smaller in women and homosexual men than in heterosexual men. This was highly publicised but came with many criticisms

  • 20. Analysis Of George Bernard Shaw 's Pygmalion Social standing is central to the plot of George Bernard Shaw's play "Pygmalion". The portrayal of class identity in Shaw's play appears to be a criticism of the distinctions between high society and the poorer classes in Victorian England. Shaw's aim was to portray how the upper–crust of Victorian society viewed the lower classes, as evidenced by Higgins' treatment of Eliza upon her first visit to his laboratory; Higgins treats her as though she is too stupid to understand that he is insulting her. The assumption is that the wealthy view the lower classes as being somehow lesser. So what is it that Shaw is trying to impart upon the reader? Shaw appeared to show open disdain not just for the upper class of society but for society in general, and Pygmalion may be interpreted as an open criticism of class distinctions in Victorian England. Class distinctions are made abundantly clear in Shaw's "Pygmalion." Eliza is representative of Shaw's view of the English working class of the day: Crude, crass, and seemingly unintelligent yet worthy of pity. Equal criticism is leveled at the upper classes, who pass judgement upon the poor precipitated by their appearance and mannerisms. Higgins and Pickering's attitude towards Eliza is one of derision, stemming from their difference in social status. For instance, Higgins' open mockery of Eliza's speech: "You see this creature with her kerbstone English: the English that will keep her in the gutter to the end of her days." (Shaw. ...

In the early years of the Twentieth Century (although processes there were different from our concepts of democratic voting), some of these issues had even been brought to the ballot (Pickering–Iazza, Mothers, p.38).

True to its totalitarian character, this plan brought the state even further into the peoples' private lives. The Fascist government went as far as passing into law a bachelor tax. All eligible men aged twenty–six to sixty–five paid exorbitant taxes if they chose to stay single (De Grazia, p.69). The party outlawed birth control, held national childbearing contests, created monetary incentives for having at least seven children, and campaigned for a revision of beauty standards (De Grazia, ch. 3,4). Pursuing a goal that would mean more confining gender roles, for women and men alike, Mussolini went all out to get his way. In accordance with these ideals of womanhood, Mussolini saw to it that women's education was tailored to their future roles as mothers and keepers of the house. Now, if wealthy enough to be in school, women were taught, even at the university level, how to keep a home (Pickering–Iazzi, Mothers p. 34). Mussolini also eliminated the most public display of women's potential political power, the right to vote. One would assume that from the outset of his rule, the Duce would strongly oppose this form of liberation for women. But his position wavered on this issue as much as it did in several other areas.

This musical altered some of the scenes and added new ones. The basic storyline of the text is about a young flower girl that runs into a phonetics teacher who claims that he could sell her as a duchess. The flower girl, which is later known to be Eliza, takes up the offer and starts speech lessons with the teacher, Mr. Higgins. He coachers her night and day to prepare her for a race and an embassy ball where she will meet royalty. Mr. Higgins is also acquainted in the beginning with one of his respected colleagues who also specialize in phonetics, Colonel Pickering. Although, Higgins treats her as "baggage" he soon gets attached to her and her ways. Colonel Pickering however, treats her as a respectable lady. She has a great success at the ball but is not recognized for it, which disappoints her. She decides to run away to Mrs. Higgins house where she found by Higgins and Pickering. She organizes her thoughts with Higgins and says she will never come back to them but at the end of the movie, not the play, she comes back to Higgins and Pickering.

Impacts of Climate Change on Australia Alps’ Ski Industry The changing nature of snow cover as a result of alpine climate change is a modern phenomenon that climate scientists are beginning to understand. Declining snow depth and duration have serious implications for Australia's ski industry, in particular the longevity of the industry. This essay discusses the impacts of alpine climate change on snow cover, adaption strategies to sustain the industry's economy as well as the unsustainable nature of snowmaking as a long term solution. Limitations on water and energy resource make snowmaking problematic as a substitute for natural snow. The essay highlights the unsustainability of snowmaking as a short–term solution, and raises concerns of the longevity of the ski industry. Currently, the Australian ski industry comprises of ten operational ski resorts (Figure 1) with "0.15% of the continent" (Green and Pickering 2009, p. 271) regularly receiving snow due to the low attitude of mountains.

Advantages And Disadvantages Of Pickering Emulsion Pickering Emulsions: Particles with a difference Pickering Emulsion is an emulsion stabilised by solid particles located on the interface between two phases. This type of emulsion was named after S.U. Pickering, who described the phenomenon in 1907, although the effect was first recognized by Walter Ramsden in 1903Pickeringemulsion utilizes solid particles alone as stabilizers, which accumulate at the interface between two immiscible liquids (typically denoted as oil and water phase) and stabilize droplets against coalescence. Solid particles are used as stabilisers due to various advantages: (i)solid particles reduce the possibility of coalescence, bringing about higher stability to emulsions; (ii) many solid particles can endow as–prepared materials useful characteristics such as conductivity, responsiveness, porosity, and so on; (iii) some food–grade solid particles have lower toxicity, thus leading to higher safety for in vivo usage.

Comparison Of Pygmalion And My Fair Lady The 1964 award–winning film My Fair Lady is a musical adaptation of George Bernard Shaw's stage production Pygmalion (first performed in the year of 1913). Taking place in Edwardian London, My Fair Lady depicts Professor Henry Higgins (portrayed by Rex Harrison), a misogynistic phonetics professor, and Colonel Hugh Pickering (Wilfrid Hyde–White), the author of Spoken Sanskrit. Professor Higgins, after coming out of a theatre and hearing Eliza shouting in her harsh 'Cockney' accent, places a bet with Colonel Pickering that he can take the Cockney working–class girl and make her presentable in high society within six months. The working–class girl, Eliza Doolittle (portrayed by Audrey Hepburn), agrees to speech lessons from Professor Higgins to improve her job prospects. Eliza grudgingly agrees to Professor Higgins' lessons after flying into an angry outburst when a man points out the professor copying down her speech. Despite Professor Higgins treats Eliza as a lesser being, his acquaintance Colonel Pickering treats her with constant respect and kindness, therefore treating her as an equal. It is Pickering's treating Eliza not as a lesser being, but as an equal that allows Eliza to flourish and succeed.

It is relevant to Chapter 6 because it is a response to the huge war debt against an already strained budget. George III's main priority was that he wanted to maintain the size of the army. The colonists were not the biggest fans of this army. The Quartering Act (1765) was one of four pieces of legislation that forced the colonies and colonists to contribute and help with the upkeep of the large army(Oakes et al., 2015, pg. 167). Analysis: The Quartering Act of 1765 is best described from parliament as an act, "...punishing mutiny and desertion, and for the better payment of the army and their quarters; several regulations are made and enacted for the better government of the army, and their observing strict discipline, and for providing quarters for the army, and carriages on marches and other necessary occasions, and inflicting penalties on offenders against the same act"(Pickering, 1765). In other words, the American colonists were required to house British soldiers and pay for their food, in order to keep the standing army.

  • 36. The Importance Of The Internet Speech In the majority of expression cases, educators have challenged reprisals for their speech outside the classroom including their Internet speech. During the 1970s and early 1980s, courts relied on the Pickering guidelines in striking down a variety of restrictions on teachers' rights to express views on matters of public concern. Since the early 1980s, however, courts have seemed increasingly inclined to view teachers' and other public employees' expression as relating to private employment disputes rather than to matters of public concern. Many courts relied on Connick in broadly interpreting what falls under the category of unprotected private grievances. To illustrate, courts considered the following types of expression to be unprotected: discussing salaries during a break; filing a grievance about being assigned a job–sharing teaching position; accusing the superintendent of inciting student disturbances; sending sarcastic, critical memoranda to school officials; protesting unfavorable performance evaluations; and commenting about class size and lack of discipline. Yet, when courts have applied the Pickering balancing test, they often distinguished whether disruption to school operations was truly caused by the employee's speech versus the impermissible heckler's veto–that is, courts have analyzed whether the disruption was caused by outsiders attempting to silence the speech instead of the speech itself.

  • 37. Benefits Of Multiculturalism In Canada Since the era of jetliners, firsts introduced in the 1950s, new interactions have resulted in a more globalised world, which has increased relationship between the many countries and cultures. The relationship between the countries makes cultural diversity even more important for Canada and Ontario. Multiculturalism has some opponent; however, the positive benefits for Canada and Ontario are economic and cultural. Opponent of multiculturalism argues that the policies promote the divisiveness of Canada and are taking over land that should be available to all Canadians. The former Minister for Multiculturalism and Citizenship states that opponent of multiculturalism makes immigrant hyphenated Canadian instead of Canadian (Weiner, 1991). This happened when the Hindu community tried to build a waterfront cemetery in the GTA. Finding a city willing to support the project was complicated and they scouted as far as Niagara. They had little luck, until the Mayor of Pickering agreed to have it built in a Pickering park, this luck dried up since Pickering council didn't give ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Contrary to the claim of the opponent that multiculturalism seeks to create hyphenated–Canadian, multiculturalism seeks the opposite, according to a former cabinet minister: "it does so not to keep Canadians apart from one another; it does so because a rich and broad cultural heritage is something in which all Canadians share, individually and collectively [...]". (Weiner, 1991) Cultural diversity does not weaken Canadian nor does it divide Canadian. Cultural diversity has benefited since industrial lands have changed to be more welcoming. The construction of Pearson Airport has led to major industrial development in Etobicoke, which changed with the Hindu temple, the only non–industrial building in that neighborhood.

  • 38. Pygmalion Movie Vs Play Imagine growing up and having to sell flowers on the street to anyone who passes to make a living. Eliza Doolittle is a person who had live this way until Henry Higgins and Colonel Pickering took her under their wings and transformed her old, dirty, and informal self into a fine lady. To do so Eliza has to learn how to speak proper and get rid of her nasty old ways. However, after she is transformed she knows not what is to become of her, but she realizes she does not have to put up with Higgins anymore. The film and the play compare and contrast in different ways through the use of music and the characters' actions towards one another. Throughout the play there was very little music compared to the film which could be considered a musical.... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Also, Higgins and Eliza have moments where they begin to sing about the short lines Higgins has Eliza reading in order to improve her pronunciation (Levin, 1964). Therefore, the play and the film contrast with the use of music because the book does not implement the musical approach as the film does. On the other hand, the characters in Pygmalion and My Fair Lady perform both similar and different actions compared to one or the other. Additionally, however both the play and the film mostly shared similar actions rather than being unalike. For example, Eliza says in the final act of the play that Pickering "treats a flower girl as if she was a duchess" (Shaw, 1916, PYGMALION AND MY FAIR LADY COMPARISON 4 p.g. 83). Therefore, throughout both Pickering was always very respectful to Eliza and treated her how any woman would want to be treated. On the other hand, Higgins did not treat Eliza with the respect she thought that she deserved and this made her angry in both the film and the play. When she realizes this completely in the play she tells him "So you are a motor bus: all bounce and go, and no consideration for anyone. But I can do without you. I told you I ...

  • 40. Pickering Balancing Testing Case Study As the district court decided correctly when Mr. Molson had proven he spoke as a citizen on a matter of public concern, his speech would be protected under the First Amendment because the memorandum did not adversely affect the Center's workplace which would have outweighed his free speech interests. "When an employee speaks as a citizen addressing a matter of public concern, the First Amendment requires a delicate balancing of the competing interests surrounding the speech and its consequences." Garcetti, 547 U.S. at 423; Waters, 511 U.S. at 668; Pickering, 391 U.S. at 568. The Pickering balancing test insists that the government have full interest in its responsibilities to satisfy the public. Connick, 461 U.S. at 150–51. If an employee did not speak as a citizen on matters of public concern, the speech is not protected by the First Amendment, and the Pickering balancing test will not be applicable.

When an employee's job involves "confidentiality, policymaking, or public contact," it is more likely that the state will have a large interest in firing them for statements that would offend their employer. McEvoy v. Spencer, 124 F.3d 92, 103 (2d Cir. 1997) ("holding that the policymaking status of the discharged or demoted employee is very significant in the Pickering balance, but not conclusive"); Rankin, 483 U.S. at 390–91 (noting that the states interest in discharging an employee based on a claim that the statement made by the employee somehow does damage to the public employer's job, some notice must be given about the concerns of the employee within the ...
