Celebrities And Stereotypes
We see pictures of celebs all the time. They always look so glamorous and many women feel they
could never live up to the dazzling beauty of their favorite celebrities. What they don t know is that
this dazzling beauty is often a very clever illusion. In addition to Photoshop, celebrities are made
beautiful with lighting and of course, makeup. If you want to see what these so called stars really look
like, you need to check out some pictures of celebrities with no makeup. Once upon a time this was
something you just couldn t find. These days, however, you can locate plenty of pictures.
Celebrities sans makeup.
These days we have a lot more access to additional pictures and information that in the past we would
never get to see. The Internet is a great place to find photos of your favorite stars with bare faces. I
have personally seen photos of celebrities like Madonna, Heidi Klum, Britney Spears, Pamela
Anderson, Goldie Hawn, Oprah Winfrey and more without a stitch of makeup on their faces. And
guess what? They look just like regular women, with flaws and imperfections. All you have to do is
use a search engine and look up a keyword phrase like celebrities without makeup. You will find all
kinds of choices. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

Postmodernism s The Swan As A Metaphor For Love
Postmodernism is a very unique era within American literature. In previous time periods authors wrote
very structured eventful stories that would often relate to the most common themes of the time,
however Postmodernism completely defied this formula. In most cases Postmodern stories do not
have story arcs nor do they have common themes. At most, the Post era can be bound by very vague
similarities. Most of the stories are conveyed through streams of conscious, which is essentially using
an unedited snippet of someone s life to create a story. There are no inner monologues or poetic
speeches, rather they only showcase a small scale continuous sliver of life. The narration device
similarity is cut and dry, however this can not be said for the themes within Postmodernism. In the
vaguest of words, Post era literature can be bound within a common ideal of expressing the terrible
and disappointing aspects of life. One of the most commonly attacked aspects of life is the sense of
love. In most forms of art and media love is portrayed as a glorious thing so long as it is true. Love
can conquer any mountain and defeat any foe, however Postmodernism portrays love in a very
different manner. In The Swan as a Metaphor for Love love is compared to a swan. On the surface
swans are seen as majestic creatures, similar to how love is seen as a beautiful emotion, but
underneath the water swans are revolting creatures covered in swan shit and pond scum . This idea

Analysis Of Bret Harte s The Outcasts Of Poker Flat
If everything was perfect, you will never learn and you would never grow (Beyoncé). Bret Harte s
stories have ordinary people, doing everyday things on a day to day basis. In The Outcasts of Poker
Flat helps to see in the Realism Era because of its references to the California Gold rush, and the story
references to the hard life on the road to the west. Harte s stories also feature the old west which was
the way of life back then. Bret Harte also puts his personal experiences in his characters/ stories
because back then authors wrote based on themselves. He presents realism in a mass of his plots in his

An Array Of Patterns Of Nonrandom Mating
Species that mate assortatively choose their mate according to their own phenotypic characteristics
(Molles Jr. Cahill Jr., 2014). It is a term used to describe an array of patterns of nonrandom mating
(Molles Jr. Cahill Jr., 2014). It encompasses a correlation, which can be positive or negative, between
the male and female phenotypes, similarities or dissimilarities, respectively (Ng Williams, 2014).
Assortative mating has several impacts on the evolution of a species or population. When it is positive
it can increase homozygous characteristics, thus decreasing the less favorable intermediate phenotypes
and going more towards the phenotypes that increase fitness and survival but can also work to keep
the species/population phenotypically the same when it is thriving (Molles Jr. Cahill Jr., 2014). It also
increases speciation, especially sympatric speciation (Molles Jr. Cahill Jr., 2014). By comparison,
negative assortative mating can increase heterozygous characteristics, this is favorable to create a
stabilizing evolution for the species (Molles Jr. Cahill Jr., 2014). Species can choose the way they
mate, depending on what is best for the species, and there can be a mixture of the species for the
intermediate phenotypes versus the extreme phenotypes (Ng Williams, 2014). In each of the three
studies the species (the convict cichlid fish (Amatitlania siquia), bridge spider (Larinioides
sclopetarius), and dioecious mangrove snail (Littoraria ardouiniana))

Analysis Of Vasquez s Theories And Factors Influencing...
Vasquez employs a gear analogy to express the interconnected nature of each of the four STEM
capabilities. Like the meshing of teeth on a system of gears, the four STEM fields are best taught,
learned and assessed together (Vasquez, Sneider, Comer, 2013, p. 12). Furthermore, Vasquez (2013)
recommends the following five guiding principles to guide the gear mesh alignment of the STEM
fields: focus on integration, establish relevance, emphasize 21st Century skills, challenge your
students, and mix it up (p. 18 19). However, Vasquez (2013) remains cognizant of the challenging
nature of implementing all five principles and urges educators to remember you don t have to do it all
(p.21). The subsequent paragraphs are an introspection regarding the degree of implementation and
the factors influencing the execution of the aforementioned principles in my current setting. The
primary principle expressed by Vasquez is the focus on integration. Vasquez(2013) states, that
combining two or more of the disciplines helps students see the relatedness of the concepts tying
together seemingly disjointed blocks of information (p.22). The yearly pacing of science instruction
shapes integration of the four disciplines. Science instruction occurs primarily during the third and
fourth quarter. A brief unit on magnetism takes place at the beginning of the second quarter.

Drilling for Oil in the Artic National Wildlife Refuge
The United States should not drill for oil in the Artic National Wildlife Refuge because it would harm
the environment, disrupt the animals, and destroy plants. The United States Congress created the Artic
National Wildlife Refuge in 1980 (To drill or not to drill?: 6). The Artic National Wildlife Refuge is
also known as ANWR (To drill or not to drill?: 6). The Artic National Wildlife Refuge is 19.6 million
acres of wilderness (Scalzo, Jim Lo.: 37). Of the 19.6 million acres in the Artic National Wildlife
Refuge 17.5 million acres are permanently closed to development. The Arctic National Wildlife

Pipelines and oil drilling platforms will harm caribou, polar bears, and millions of migrating birds
(Come on in.: 38). Whenever some country drills for oil it is more likely than not for that country to
have an oil spill. Oil spills are deadly to animals, hard to clean up, and it takes the land thousands of
years to recover. The United States has already had one major oil spill off the coast of Alaska in Prince
William Sound. If another large oil spill occurred on the water it would have a substantial effect on
whales and other marine wildlife (Experts say Alaska Oil Drilling Hurts Wildlife: 43). There are over
130 bird species that find breeding, nesting, or resting places on the coastal plain (Defenders of
Wildlife).
All of the oil will be pumped down the Trans Alaskan Pipeline no matter what. Then it is loaded onto
tankers and shipped out of Prince William Sound, but the tankers that the oil is being shipped in are at
an enormous risk for having an oil spill. This is because most of the ships that pick up the oil are not
doubled hulled. The vast majority of oil shipped from Alaska is carried in aging tankers with higher
risk of leaking. Only 3 of 26 have double hulls and those are more than 20 years old. There are three
main oil companies who carry oil out of Alaska; Phillip, BP, and Exxon. The first of Phillip s four new

Essay about Americans Have the Right to Keep and Bear Arms
Americans Have the Right to Keep and Bear Arms
Our rights as Americans started to take shape when the Constitution of the United States was drawn up
by the delegates at the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. Three years later, a very important
part of American history called the Bill of Rights was added. The Bill of Rights is looked upon and
interpreted every day. It gives the citizens of the United States many of the rights and freedoms that
we value today, and some of those are in jeopardy. One right that is at stake is our right to bear arms,
which is addressed in the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment is a highly debatable topic,

Several states have added right to carry laws, while others have made it illegal to possess a concealed
weapon (Smith 22). Most of the additional laws deal with the ownership and use of handguns and
assault type weapons. There has been much debate and government lobbying dealing with the passing
of gun laws. Many people think the government is focusing too much on the laws about guns, because
90 percent of all violent crime in the United States does not involve any type of firearm (Smith 17).
Other countries around the world have also set examples by having gun laws. Guns are banned in the
United Kingdom, and the crime rate has risen since that time (Smith 24). Also, within the United
States, the crime rate in the states is lower if the states have right to carry laws (Smith 22). The other
major problem with gun laws in the United States is that they are simply not being enforced (Smith
15). These facts and others involving the positive uses of guns are argued in court rooms and
government offices around the country every day. As government officials study the facts and make
laws, they continue to maintain the people s right to bear arms.
When thinking about the people s right to bear arms, it is appropriate to know that not all stories about
guns are bad. Guns are not always used for violence, and the government seems to be keeping this fact
in mind. Positive stories about people having their lives saved by guns seem to

Another way that changed or become popular with the exposure of a counter culture in the sixties and
had shaped the American society was the growth of the rock music, increase of drug, alcohol abuse
and freedom about sex. Hippies were basically blithe about a lot of things that they did not like. These
were signs to get noticed about how they wished to get away from the American culture. One of their
slogans was, Get every creature so stoned they can t stand the plastic shit of American culture (1960 s
200). A history professor, Terry H. Anderson wrote, Hippies commonly took drugs to expand their
consciousness, to rebel against the establishment and to enhance their own sense of being different
(200). They were mainly dissenters who liked experimenting. New drugs came out continuously but
the most popular ones were LSD, marijuana, certain hallucinogens, heroin and alcohol. Surveys from
the sixties show that in early sixties only 4 percent of people from ages 18 to 25 had tried marijuana
and twelve years after, it was 50 percent in the nation as a whole and 60 percent for college students
and even higher in some universities. (201). 1960 s became a drug culture during that era. The rise in

Words are not defined by dictionaries or professors, or officials, but by how people use them, how
they are put in to context, through the timeless evolution of meanings. Words can have many different

Sometimes there are words that can start out having a friendly face, but with time society can turn
them into a mean face that betrays its former self, words like this exist all across modern social

Gay wasn t used to replace homosexual as a noun until the twentieth century (Oxford English
Dictionary). That was when politics and news corporations used the word to label the homosexual
community as gay. In recent events, for example, there have been instances such as the Gay Rights
Movement which has been mentioned in media, in turn creates it as a label for homosexuals. So
nowadays homosexuals are officially known as gays. Although gay became a technical term in the
professional field, at a local level, the word turned away from being a noun and became an adjective,
just like in the beginnings of the word; but it had taken on a very different meaning from what it was
originally. Gay: adj., stupid, dumb, out of favor. That seems to be how our generation defined this
word, it is sad to see that society has come to this, to relate a group of people to the words dumb or
stupid. People use this word in many cases that don t even have any relation to the actual meaning of
the word, mostly as a derogatory term or insult. For example, if a student chooses to complain about a
homework assignment or how a teacher runs their classroom, they usually will say Man, this is so gay,
I hate this . To the student, their statement is exactly the same as, Man, this is so stupid . It is pitiful

Essay On Denmark Vs America
A country s success revolves around its government. If a dictator rules a country, usually the people
are impoverished, hungry and/or unaware of what s happening in the world. For example, a dictator
otherwise known as Kim Jong Un is ruling North Korea right now. Kim Jong Un is lying to his people
and taking all their money (Conservapedia). On the other hand, if the government of a country is too
liberal and has barely any rules then there will be chaos. But, if a group of leaders that the people can
vote for, governs a country and that country has a constitution, people are happier. The happiest
country in the world is considered to be Denmark because of their government. Denmark differs from

Wide Open Spaces Rhetorical Analysis
Transcendentalism is to understand who oneself is by having confidence, free thought, and self
reliance. It is to isolate themselves from society and find themselves through nature, to find what they
want and who they are. They must have self reliance and leave the people they know, and isolate
themselves from society, so they will not be told who they are or who they should be. Going into
nature without the luxuries and only the essentials, confidence is imperative. They have to be
confident in themselves to know they can survive on their own. Free thought is also crucial because
they need to be able to live a simple life and explore new ways to live, while enjoying every second of

Transcendentalists believe that they have enough. They don t need nice items, as long as it works, then
it is good enough for them. Three meals are not necessary. People tell one to eat three meals a day, but
through a transcendentalists view point, one should only eat when they are hungry, and when it is
necessary. Thoreau emphasizes simplicity in life by saying, Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity! I say, let
your affairs be as two or three, and not a hundred or a thousand; instead of a million count half a
dozen, and keep your accounts on your thumbnail. (Thoreau 772). He declares to keep everything to a

Human Nature And Awareness Toward Environmental Protection
Many individuals are unaware of the harm that they cause to our planet. We live in a society where we

Difference Between Absolute and Comparative Advatage
The theory of comparative advantage is perhaps one of the most important concepts in international
trade theory.
A country has an absolute advantage in the production of a good relative to another country if it can
produce the good at lower cost or with higher productivity. Absolute advantage compares industry
productivities across countries. In the case of Zambia, for instance, the country has an absolute
advantage over many countries in the production of copper. This occurs because of the existence of
reserves of copper ore or bauxite. We can see that in terms of the production of goods, there are
obvious gains from specialisation and trade, if Zambia produces copper and exports it to those
countries that specialise in the production ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Country B has an absolute disadvantage. Due to abundance of raw materials or more productively
efficient production techniques, Country A is able to produce more wheat and more maize that
Country B. Perhaps common sense tells us that Country A should produce both goods and export
surpluses and Country B neither. However, when comparative advantage is considered a different
story emerges.
Consider the opportunity cost of Country A producing one more unit of maize. Half a unit of wheat
has been foregone. When country B produces one more unit of maize two units of wheat are foregone.
Economics is concerned with the allocation of scarce resources. Fewer resources are foregone if
Country A concentrates its resources in the production of maize.
Now consider the opportunity cost of Country B producing one more unit of wheat. Two units of
maize have been foregone. When Country B produces one more unit of wheat only half a unit of
maize is foregone. Fewer resources are foregone if Country B specialises in the production of wheat.
In the above case Country A should produce maize and Country B wheat. The surpluses produce
should then be traded.
We can see that the principle of comparative advantage is clearly counter intuitive. Many results from
the formal model are contrary to simple logic; in the other hand the logic behind absolute advantage is
quite intuitive.

Barbarian Invasions
Evidently, Barbarian invasions were the most significant factor in the downfall of the Western Roman
Empire predominantly because they weakened the empire and thus made it vulnerable to other
problems such as a poor economic situation and political weaknesses within the empire. Barbarian
invasions occurred frequently throughout the timeline yet one of the most significant invasions was
the sack of Rome in 410 AD by Alaric and the Visigoths because this was the first time Rome was
defeated in 800 years therefore signalling the beginning of the end of the Western Roman Empire. The
Visigoths has crossed the Rhine river and were looking for land to settle and to be accepted within the
empire and so Alaric decided to besiege Rome until the senate paid him to leave. This resulted in
Rome being sieged a total of 3 times before the gates to Rome were opened from within and Rome
was finally sacked. This was a massive shock to the empire as it accentuated its weaknesses and the
Visigoths looted places of aristocracy and killed Romans who resisted and women were raped. This
also drastically worsened the economic situation as during the months in which Rome was under
siege, people began to die of hunger with some even resorting to cannibalism. This event is mimicked

All meditators performed better than the control in their ability to detect stimuli indicating that both
groups developed a heightened attention as a result of their practice. Results also showed that mindful
meditators were significantly better at detecting unexpected stimuli, compared to the concentration
group (Valentine, 1999).
Another study was done during a three month silent retreat to see if mindful meditation can increase
the ability to identify both stimuli in rapid succession, essentially reducing the trend known as
attentional blink (Slagter, 2007) As cited by Slagter, attentional blink refers to an inability to perceive
a second target in rapid sequential visual presentation of stimuli, if a first target was detected within a
brief window of time, (500 milliseconds) preceding the second target (Shapiro, 1997). Research
indicated that meditators showed less of an attentional blink response than non meditators after the
three month retreat. Electroencephalography (EEG) signals revealed that the individuals that
performed the best on the attentional blink task also exhibited the least amount of brain activity at the
start of the first stimulus. This implies that those individuals were able to allocate their attentional
resources evenly which is in co ordinance with their hypothesis that mindful meditation reduces

According to Jeanne Kuebler, a journalist for CQ Researcher states, The first World Zionist Congress,
... spurred the Return movement; the aim of the congress ... was to create a national home in Palestine
for the Jewish people (Kuebler). Prior to the Congress, Jewish people fled their former homeland of
Palestine for various reasons. Following the Return movement and World War II, support for this
resurgence would be recognized by various countries. Great Britain colonized Palestine, to push forth
the plans of the Balfour Treaty, which insisted that Palestine would be a nation for Jewish people.
Since the declaration was made, a mass emigration to Palestine was immediate. Although there was a
cap of 75,000 Jewish immigrants, others found ways around the system finding ways to Palestine
leading to a higher number of immigrants in Palestine than the maximum allowed by Great Britain. As
Palestinians demanded their own dependence from the Jewish nation, Great Britain was unable to
create this which led to a series of terrorist attack against the Jewish residents. Great Britain sought the
help of the Leagues of Nations, which suggested a split into two nations (Brewer).
However, Great Britain was unwilling to fix the problem, so when the British government left
Palestine, the Jewish citizens declared themselves as a new nation known as Israel. However the day

English Descriptive Narrative essay
It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon in Philadelphia. The air was fresh and the fog was rolling off of

OSA Pathogenesis Paper
Though overweight and an excess of regional adipose tissue are considered major risk factors for
OSA, there are also other interacting elements in OSA pathogenesis, such as craniofacial
abnormalities and an altered UA structure. The rationale of using image and speech analysis in OSA
assessment can be found on works such as Lee et al. [3, 4] and Davidson et al. [5], where the
evolutionary changes in physiological characteristics such as craniofacial morphology or acquisition
of speech are connected to the appearance of OSA from an anatomical basis.
First studies looked for abnormalities within craniofacial structures using techniques and processing
common in medical imaging such as cephalometry or computed tomography (CT). In [6] authors

In [7], authors reported differences between control and OSA subjects in craniofacial structures
assessed by lateral cephalometry such as position of mandible (P 0.05), mandibular plane angle (P
0.05), total face height (P 0.01), upper face height (P 0.05), and lower face height (P 0.05). In addition,
they also reported differences in tongue (P 0.001), soft palate (P 0.001), and upper airway (P 0.01) size
determined from computed tomography. In [8], authors studied oropharyngeal soft tissues profile by
means of cephalometric analysis to detect differences between control and sleep apnea individuals.
Significant differences were related to the length of the soft palate (P 0.001), area of the soft palate (P
0.001), and distance of close contact between the tongue and soft palate (P 0.001). These previous
works rely on advanced imaging techniques, allowing a detailed examination of bony and soft tissue
structures. However, these procedures are generally cost expensive, time consuming, and invasive for

critical component that makes teamwork possible is effective communication. (p. xvii xviii)

(Tapscott Williams, 2008, p. 33).
Foremost, to create and develop dynamic team communication, trust must be established. Depth of
relationships amongst a team, even with very poor technology to support an effort, has the ability to
succeed. Teamwork is more than a series of transactions. Teamwork is a series of engagements... If
you are able to establish trust as a team member, leader, or manager, you will be able to gain
consensus, agreement, and the ability to influence, (Jones, Oyung, Pace, 2005, p. 26 27). Keith
Ferrazzi, author of Getting Virtual Teams Right (2014) in the Harvard Business Review, states:
Trust starts with respect and empathy... leaders should encourage team members to describe their
backgrounds, the value they hope to add to the group, and the way they prefer to work. This allows
colleagues to form mental images of one another when they re later communicating by e mail, phone,

Realities are such that virtual teams come with exceedingly broader diverse backgrounds in culture,

huge variety of crops. The Incans created terraces to grow their crops on. They built terraces on the

requirements of different plants. By building the terraces on the sides of mountains the Incans also
enabled their crops to get more sunlight instead of planting in the shaded valleys. The terraces were
formed with stone walls and included steps to move from one level to the next. The stone walls

Cyrano De Bergerac Qualities
Justifying The Qualities of Characters in Cyrano de Bergerac
In the story of Cyrano de Bergerac by Edmond Rostand, there are people who solely focus on the
aesthetics of others instead of the personality or quality of the individual. Though it seems completely
innocent, they can only hurt themselves, and the people close to them. Cyrano de Bergerac presents
the theme of love as an umbrella to the motifs of precieuse, and platonic love, Rostand conveys the
message that judging people on external beauty, and making reality bend to one s desires can lead to
self harm, and heartbreak. When a person is a precieuse, they alter reality, and facts to their liking,
however this can only achieve sorrow, and despair upon oneself. In Act two of Cyrano ... Show more

Even Cyrano de Bergerac expresses fear with platonic love when he is met with the chance of seeing

got the girl. You re half way there. Now dare to speak. Cyrano responds So she can laugh at this?
Why, man, there s nothing that I fear more in this world... (31). These quotes not only show that
Cyrano is very self conscious of his nose, but he does not even attempt speak, meet with, or make
contact with Roxane, unless asked to. This decision by Cyrano might be one of the most fatal decision
in his life because he did not tell Roxane how he felt about her before she claimed that she had fallen
in love with Christian. As well as being a precieuse, Roxane is also said to use platonic love. This is
true because when Roxane was talking about Christian, and states, ...I love him. All that remains for
me to say is that I ve only seen him at the theatre , after she has mentioned such a man intelligent,
young, brave, beautiful (46), she concludes qualities about Christian that can only be decided with the

100%. Perhaps the issue is related to high costs of using options and their receivables / payables run

positive expectations about the future exchange rate and the forward would only serve to limit their

However by paying a small premium for an option, GM would be able to preserve the upside of any
exposure. This is because an option gives them the right to choose whether to exercise it or not upon
maturity. Hence, if the CAD dollar weakens against the USD, GM s large Canadian assets and
liabilities and payables owed to Canadian suppliers would weaken considerably. GM could then
choose to exercise the option for a better exchange rate. Conversely, if the CAD dollar strengthens,
then GM would choose not to exercise the option as their cash flows denominated in Canadian dollar
is now worth more compared to the USD.
The level of risk adverseness plays a huge role because GM may be inclined to hedge all exposure
using a forward if they are highly risk adverse. On the other hand, GM may be willing to pay a
premium for an option to ensure the still receive the upside if they are not so risk adverse. This links to
expectations on future spot rates and how GM anticipates the CAD to fluctuate vis à vis the USD in
the coming months. If GM anticipates future spot rates of CAD/USD to weaken, it would prefer to
buy a forward and the reverse holds true as well.

Similarities Between Ran And King Lear
Despite contrasting contexts, a well developed understanding of the shared ideas between two texts
has been achieved through comparative study. The play King Lear (1606) but William Shakespeare
and the Japanese film adaptation Ran (1985) by Akira Kurosawa share similar values despite coming
from different parts of the world, and being written in different time periods. The concept of Chaos
highlights the need to respect the values of society, and Justice is used throughout both texts to explore
morality and the consequences that one s actions possess.
The theme of Chaos has been used within the play to reflect the societal values of Elizabethan
England. King Lear was written just after Queen Elizabeth I s death in 1603, when King James I was
crowned. King James quickly became an unpopular ruler, as he would not listen to other s opinions,
and made very harsh decisions, similar to King Lear himself. How in one house, should many people
under two commands hold amity? Tis hard, almost impossible. (Act 2 Scene 4) Regan is asking Lear
how his knights and her servants can get along when they have two authority figures, using the chaos
that Lear s knights have caused as an excuse to dismiss them and claim the last of Lear s power. This
power struggle ties in with the Elizabethan concept of the Chain of Being. The chain itself is a

  • 2. Celebrities And Stereotypes We see pictures of celebs all the time. They always look so glamorous and many women feel they could never live up to the dazzling beauty of their favorite celebrities. What they don t know is that this dazzling beauty is often a very clever illusion. In addition to Photoshop, celebrities are made beautiful with lighting and of course, makeup. If you want to see what these so called stars really look like, you need to check out some pictures of celebrities with no makeup. Once upon a time this was something you just couldn t find. These days, however, you can locate plenty of pictures. Celebrities sans makeup. These days we have a lot more access to additional pictures and information that in the past we would never get to see. The Internet is a great place to find photos of your favorite stars with bare faces.

  • 3. Postmodernism s The Swan As A Metaphor For Love Postmodernism is a very unique era within American literature. In previous time periods authors wrote very structured eventful stories that would often relate to the most common themes of the time, however Postmodernism completely defied this formula. In most cases Postmodern stories do not have story arcs nor do they have common themes. At most, the Post era can be bound by very vague similarities. Most of the stories are conveyed through streams of conscious, which is essentially using an unedited snippet of someone s life to create a story. There are no inner monologues or poetic speeches, rather they only showcase a small scale continuous sliver of life. The narration device similarity is cut and dry, however this can not be said for the themes within Postmodernism. In the vaguest of words, Post era literature can be bound within a common ideal of expressing the terrible and disappointing aspects of life. One of the most commonly attacked aspects of life is the sense of love. In most forms of art and media love is portrayed as a glorious thing so long as it is true. Love can conquer any mountain and defeat any foe, however Postmodernism portrays love in a very different manner. In The Swan as a Metaphor for Love love is compared to a swan. On the surface swans are seen as majestic creatures, similar to how love is seen as a beautiful emotion, but underneath the water swans are revolting creatures covered in swan shit and pond scum . This idea that a normal life ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 4. Analysis Of Bret Harte s The Outcasts Of Poker Flat If everything was perfect, you will never learn and you would never grow (Beyoncé). Bret Harte s stories have ordinary people, doing everyday things on a day to day basis. In The Outcasts of Poker Flat helps to see in the Realism Era because of its references to the California Gold rush, and the story references to the hard life on the road to the west. Harte s stories also feature the old west which was the way of life back then. Bret Harte also puts his personal experiences in his characters/ stories because back then authors wrote based on themselves. He presents realism in a mass of his plots in his works. Bret Harte s works display his references to the civil war, rugged individualism, government issue, and throughout many other ideas ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 5. An Array Of Patterns Of Nonrandom Mating Species that mate assortatively choose their mate according to their own phenotypic characteristics (Molles Jr. Cahill Jr., 2014). It is a term used to describe an array of patterns of nonrandom mating (Molles Jr. Cahill Jr., 2014). It encompasses a correlation, which can be positive or negative, between the male and female phenotypes, similarities or dissimilarities, respectively (Ng Williams, 2014). Assortative mating has several impacts on the evolution of a species or population. When it is positive it can increase homozygous characteristics, thus decreasing the less favorable intermediate phenotypes and going more towards the phenotypes that increase fitness and survival but can also work to keep the species/population phenotypically the same when it is thriving (Molles Jr. Cahill Jr., 2014). It also increases speciation, especially sympatric speciation (Molles Jr. Cahill Jr., 2014). By comparison, negative assortative mating can increase heterozygous characteristics, this is favorable to create a stabilizing evolution for the species (Molles Jr. Cahill Jr., 2014). Species can choose the way they mate, depending on what is best for the species, and there can be a mixture of the species for the intermediate phenotypes versus the extreme phenotypes (Ng Williams, 2014). In each of the three studies the species (the convict cichlid fish (Amatitlania siquia), bridge spider (Larinioides sclopetarius), and dioecious mangrove snail (Littoraria ardouiniana)) ...

  • 6. Analysis Of Vasquez s Theories And Factors Influencing... Vasquez employs a gear analogy to express the interconnected nature of each of the four STEM capabilities. Like the meshing of teeth on a system of gears, the four STEM fields are best taught, learned and assessed together (Vasquez, Sneider, Comer, 2013, p. 12). Furthermore, Vasquez (2013) recommends the following five guiding principles to guide the gear mesh alignment of the STEM fields: focus on integration, establish relevance, emphasize 21st Century skills, challenge your students, and mix it up (p. 18 19). However, Vasquez (2013) remains cognizant of the challenging nature of implementing all five principles and urges educators to remember you don t have to do it all (p.21). The subsequent paragraphs are an introspection regarding the degree of implementation and the factors influencing the execution of the aforementioned principles in my current setting. The primary principle expressed by Vasquez is the focus on integration. Vasquez(2013) states, that combining two or more of the disciplines helps students see the relatedness of the concepts tying together seemingly disjointed blocks of information (p.22). The yearly pacing of science instruction shapes integration of the four disciplines. Science instruction occurs primarily during the third and fourth quarter. A brief unit on magnetism takes place at the beginning of the second quarter. Additionally, the emphasis on number sense and computation during this period is less conducive to integration than the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 8. Drilling for Oil in the Artic National Wildlife Refuge The United States should not drill for oil in the Artic National Wildlife Refuge because it would harm the environment, disrupt the animals, and destroy plants. The United States Congress created the Artic National Wildlife Refuge in 1980 (To drill or not to drill?: 6). The Artic National Wildlife Refuge is also known as ANWR (To drill or not to drill?: 6). The Artic National Wildlife Refuge is 19.6 million acres of wilderness (Scalzo, Jim Lo.: 37). Of the 19.6 million acres in the Artic National Wildlife Refuge 17.5 million acres are permanently closed to development. The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is often called the American Serengeti (Defenders of Wildlife). The Artic National Wildlife Refuge lies in the northeast corner of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Pipelines and oil drilling platforms will harm caribou, polar bears, and millions of migrating birds (Come on in.: 38). Whenever some country drills for oil it is more likely than not for that country to have an oil spill. Oil spills are deadly to animals, hard to clean up, and it takes the land thousands of years to recover. The United States has already had one major oil spill off the coast of Alaska in Prince William Sound. If another large oil spill occurred on the water it would have a substantial effect on whales and other marine wildlife (Experts say Alaska Oil Drilling Hurts Wildlife: 43). There are over 130 bird species that find breeding, nesting, or resting places on the coastal plain (Defenders of Wildlife). All of the oil will be pumped down the Trans Alaskan Pipeline no matter what. Then it is loaded onto tankers and shipped out of Prince William Sound, but the tankers that the oil is being shipped in are at an enormous risk for having an oil spill. This is because most of the ships that pick up the oil are not doubled hulled. The vast majority of oil shipped from Alaska is carried in aging tankers with higher risk of leaking. Only 3 of 26 have double hulls and those are more than 20 years old. There are three main oil companies who carry oil out of Alaska; Phillip, BP, and Exxon. The first of Phillip s four new Millennium Class double hulled tankers to be built was christened ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 9. Essay about Americans Have the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Americans Have the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Our rights as Americans started to take shape when the Constitution of the United States was drawn up by the delegates at the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. Three years later, a very important part of American history called the Bill of Rights was added. The Bill of Rights is looked upon and interpreted every day. It gives the citizens of the United States many of the rights and freedoms that we value today, and some of those are in jeopardy. One right that is at stake is our right to bear arms, which is addressed in the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment is a highly debatable topic, and many legal scholars and the Supreme Court have yet to resolve the issues and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Several states have added right to carry laws, while others have made it illegal to possess a concealed weapon (Smith 22). Most of the additional laws deal with the ownership and use of handguns and assault type weapons. There has been much debate and government lobbying dealing with the passing of gun laws. Many people think the government is focusing too much on the laws about guns, because 90 percent of all violent crime in the United States does not involve any type of firearm (Smith 17). Other countries around the world have also set examples by having gun laws. Guns are banned in the United Kingdom, and the crime rate has risen since that time (Smith 24). Also, within the United States, the crime rate in the states is lower if the states have right to carry laws (Smith 22). The other major problem with gun laws in the United States is that they are simply not being enforced (Smith 15). These facts and others involving the positive uses of guns are argued in court rooms and government offices around the country every day. As government officials study the facts and make laws, they continue to maintain the people s right to bear arms. When thinking about the people s right to bear arms, it is appropriate to know that not all stories about guns are bad. Guns are not always used for violence, and the government seems to be keeping this fact in mind. Positive stories about people having their lives saved by guns seem to ...

It grows out of the disintegration of the old forms, vinyl and aerosol institutions that carry all the inane and destructive values of privatism; competition, commercialism, profitability and elitism It s not a youth thing by now but a generational event; chronological age is the only current phase . The previous quote was written by Andrew Kopkind in Rolling Stone on the Woodstock festival observing that a new culture was immersing from the roots of the adult American life (1960 s 198). Words such as counter culture , establishment , non violence , free love and Woodstock were not even in the American vocabulary until the war against North Vietnam started in ...

Another way that changed or become popular with the exposure of a counter culture in the sixties and had shaped the American society was the growth of the rock music, increase of drug, alcohol abuse and freedom about sex. Hippies were basically blithe about a lot of things that they did not like. These were signs to get noticed about how they wished to get away from the American culture. One of their slogans was, Get every creature so stoned they can t stand the plastic shit of American culture (1960 s 200). A history professor, Terry H. Anderson wrote, Hippies commonly took drugs to expand their consciousness, to rebel against the establishment and to enhance their own sense of being different (200). They were mainly dissenters who liked experimenting. New drugs came out continuously but the most popular ones were LSD, marijuana, certain hallucinogens, heroin and alcohol. Surveys from the sixties show that in early sixties only 4 percent of people from ages 18 to 25 had tried marijuana and twelve years after, it was 50 percent in the nation as a whole and 60 percent for college students and even higher in some universities. (201). 1960 s became a drug culture during that era. The rise in drugs and alcohol usage during the sixties is a cause of the considerable drug and alcohol abuse in the United States.

  • 11. The Is Not Defined By Dictionaries Or Professors, Or... Definition Essay Draft Words are not defined by dictionaries or professors, or officials, but by how people use them, how they are put in to context, through the timeless evolution of meanings. Words can have many different faces, many of which can be powerful or quite weak, others can have a friendly face or a mean one. Sometimes there are words that can start out having a friendly face, but with time society can turn them into a mean face that betrays its former self, words like this exist all across modern social interaction, some can be more prominent than others and promote an ignorant atmosphere as to which we are forced to live in. The word gay is no exception, many people apply this word incorrectly to every situation and it ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Gay wasn t used to replace homosexual as a noun until the twentieth century (Oxford English Dictionary). That was when politics and news corporations used the word to label the homosexual community as gay. In recent events, for example, there have been instances such as the Gay Rights Movement which has been mentioned in media, in turn creates it as a label for homosexuals. So nowadays homosexuals are officially known as gays. Although gay became a technical term in the professional field, at a local level, the word turned away from being a noun and became an adjective, just like in the beginnings of the word; but it had taken on a very different meaning from what it was originally. Gay: adj., stupid, dumb, out of favor. That seems to be how our generation defined this word, it is sad to see that society has come to this, to relate a group of people to the words dumb or stupid. People use this word in many cases that don t even have any relation to the actual meaning of the word, mostly as a derogatory term or insult. For example, if a student chooses to complain about a homework assignment or how a teacher runs their classroom, they usually will say Man, this is so gay, I hate this . To the student, their statement is exactly the same as, Man, this is so stupid . It is pitiful how this generation has done this to such a word that has so much other meaning behind it.

Naomi s attempt to receive vital information in her life causes her to have troubles dealing with surroundings. Obasan s and Uncle s lives around her are marked by silence. When Naomi s mother leaves to assist her Grandmother in Japan, Naomi has little or no information about the state of her mother. When Naomi approaches Obasan and tries to get answers, the only achievement is Obasan s silence. The family with the exception of the foil, Aunt Emily, has silence and inability to communicate with others. When Naomi was sexually assaulted by Old Man Gower at a young age she felt she could not tell any of her family. She did not make an effort to prevent it from happening again, she relied on Stephen to come and rescue her but, he never did. This was learned from her family, they never directly address the problem with one exception Aunt Emily. Naomi s attempt to live freely is prohibited by her family; Naomi has a desire for knowledge and cannot fulfill her needs in that area.

  • 13. Essay On Denmark Vs America A country s success revolves around its government. If a dictator rules a country, usually the people are impoverished, hungry and/or unaware of what s happening in the world. For example, a dictator otherwise known as Kim Jong Un is ruling North Korea right now. Kim Jong Un is lying to his people and taking all their money (Conservapedia). On the other hand, if the government of a country is too liberal and has barely any rules then there will be chaos. But, if a group of leaders that the people can vote for, governs a country and that country has a constitution, people are happier. The happiest country in the world is considered to be Denmark because of their government. Denmark differs from America in a few main ways, especially their government and their general attitudes. Denmark s and the United States governments are ordered and organized in different ways that have some similarities. Denmark is a monarchy with a constitution, whereas the United States is a constitutional democracy. They both have a constitution, but Queen Margrethe II and parliament rule Denmark and they share control over the legislative authority, but executive power rests with the Prime Minister, Lars Løkke Rasmussen (CultureGrams).

  • 14. Wide Open Spaces Rhetorical Analysis Transcendentalism is to understand who oneself is by having confidence, free thought, and self reliance. It is to isolate themselves from society and find themselves through nature, to find what they want and who they are. They must have self reliance and leave the people they know, and isolate themselves from society, so they will not be told who they are or who they should be. Going into nature without the luxuries and only the essentials, confidence is imperative. They have to be confident in themselves to know they can survive on their own. Free thought is also crucial because they need to be able to live a simple life and explore new ways to live, while enjoying every second of it and making everything they do meaningful to them. Thoreau ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Living without texting, calling, and social media while trying to find themselves is essential because a transcendentalist excludes themselves from the outside world and what is going on in society. Transcendentalists believe that they have enough. They don t need nice items, as long as it works, then it is good enough for them. Three meals are not necessary. People tell one to eat three meals a day, but through a transcendentalists view point, one should only eat when they are hungry, and when it is necessary.

We live in a society where we eat and use electricity without knowing where it comes from or what damage it might cause to our planet. We have needs that do no make sense to the rest of the world. While some of us enjoy our luxurious meals, other individuals are given little choice. Richer countries have been accustomed to the point where many are unaware of the problems that they cause. The ecological footprint is a very good tool to show us how we use our nature and raise awareness toward environmental protection. After taking my ecological footprint quiz I was surprised that my results were so poor. I think of myself who is environmentally stable. I do not litter by throwing garbage on the streets, I even pick up any garbage that I see thrown in sanitary places. My ecological footprint said that we would need 4.6 planets earths to provide enough resources if everyone lived like me. This quiz educated me that I am not environmentally friendly as I think I am.

  • 16. Difference Between Absolute and Comparative Advatage The theory of comparative advantage is perhaps one of the most important concepts in international trade theory. A country has an absolute advantage in the production of a good relative to another country if it can produce the good at lower cost or with higher productivity. Absolute advantage compares industry productivities across countries. In the case of Zambia, for instance, the country has an absolute advantage over many countries in the production of copper. This occurs because of the existence of reserves of copper ore or bauxite. We can see that in terms of the production of goods, there are obvious gains from specialisation and trade, if Zambia produces copper and exports it to those countries that specialise in the production ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Country B has an absolute disadvantage. Due to abundance of raw materials or more productively efficient production techniques, Country A is able to produce more wheat and more maize that Country B. Perhaps common sense tells us that Country A should produce both goods and export surpluses and Country B neither. However, when comparative advantage is considered a different story emerges. Consider the opportunity cost of Country A producing one more unit of maize. Half a unit of wheat has been foregone. When country B produces one more unit of maize two units of wheat are foregone. Economics is concerned with the allocation of scarce resources. Fewer resources are foregone if Country A concentrates its resources in the production of maize. Now consider the opportunity cost of Country B producing one more unit of wheat. Two units of maize have been foregone. When Country B produces one more unit of wheat only half a unit of maize is foregone. Fewer resources are foregone if Country B specialises in the production of wheat. In the above case Country A should produce maize and Country B wheat. The surpluses produce should then be traded. We can see that the principle of comparative advantage is clearly counter intuitive. Many results from the formal model are contrary to simple logic; in the other hand the logic behind absolute advantage is quite intuitive. Source: Economics 7th Edition, David Begg.

His kite experiment exemplifies Virgil s quote as an act of bravery to get excellent consequences. Ben Franklin believed that lightning was electricity, and that it might be transferable, which could prove that it was indeed electricity. He proved it with this experiment. On a gloomy June afternoon in 1752 Philadelphia, Benjamin Franklin, then 46, decided to fly his new homemade kite. He tied an iron key to a silk string, then attached it to a kite. Franklin held onto a silk ribbon fixed onto the key. He moved into the barn so as to not get wet. The negative charges from the lightning traveled from the kite all the way to the key. Ben didn t get shocked because the ribbon provided insulation, but when he touched the iron key, he got an electrical shock. He knew the ramifications of doing this experiment, which included death.

Barbarian invasions occurred frequently throughout the timeline yet one of the most significant invasions was the sack of Rome in 410 AD by Alaric and the Visigoths because this was the first time Rome was defeated in 800 years therefore signalling the beginning of the end of the Western Roman Empire. The Visigoths has crossed the Rhine river and were looking for land to settle and to be accepted within the empire and so Alaric decided to besiege Rome until the senate paid him to leave. This resulted in Rome being sieged a total of 3 times before the gates to Rome were opened from within and Rome was finally sacked. This was a massive shock to the empire as it accentuated its weaknesses and the Visigoths looted places of aristocracy and killed Romans who resisted and women were raped. This also drastically worsened the economic situation as during the months in which Rome was under siege, people began to die of hunger with some even resorting to cannibalism. This event is mimicked 45 years later in 455 AD by the Vandals, led by Genseric.

All meditators performed better than the control in their ability to detect stimuli indicating that both groups developed a heightened attention as a result of their practice. Results also showed that mindful meditators were significantly better at detecting unexpected stimuli, compared to the concentration group (Valentine, 1999). Another study was done during a three month silent retreat to see if mindful meditation can increase the ability to identify both stimuli in rapid succession, essentially reducing the trend known as attentional blink (Slagter, 2007) As cited by Slagter, attentional blink refers to an inability to perceive a second target in rapid sequential visual presentation of stimuli, if a first target was detected within a brief window of time, (500 milliseconds) preceding the second target (Shapiro, 1997). Research indicated that meditators showed less of an attentional blink response than non meditators after the three month retreat. Electroencephalography (EEG) signals revealed that the individuals that performed the best on the attentional blink task also exhibited the least amount of brain activity at the start of the first stimulus. This implies that those individuals were able to allocate their attentional resources evenly which is in co ordinance with their hypothesis that mindful meditation reduces attentional blink. ...

Since the declaration was made, a mass emigration to Palestine was immediate. Although there was a cap of 75,000 Jewish immigrants, others found ways around the system finding ways to Palestine leading to a higher number of immigrants in Palestine than the maximum allowed by Great Britain. As Palestinians demanded their own dependence from the Jewish nation, Great Britain was unable to create this which led to a series of terrorist attack against the Jewish residents.

Cyrano de Bergerac presents the theme of love as an umbrella to the motifs of precieuse, and platonic love, Rostand conveys the message that judging people on external beauty, and making reality bend to one s desires can lead to self harm, and heartbreak.

That skill, that courage got the girl. You re half way there. Now dare to speak. Cyrano responds So she can laugh at this? Why, man, there s nothing that I fear more in this world... (31). These quotes not only show that Cyrano is very self conscious of his nose, but he does not even attempt speak, meet with, or make contact with Roxane, unless asked to.

This is because an option gives them the right to choose whether to exercise it or not upon maturity. Hence, if the CAD dollar weakens against the USD, GM s large Canadian assets and liabilities and payables owed to Canadian suppliers would weaken considerably. GM could then choose to exercise the option for a better exchange rate. Conversely, if the CAD dollar strengthens, then GM would choose not to exercise the option as their cash flows denominated in Canadian dollar is now worth more compared to the USD. The level of risk adverseness plays a huge role because GM may be inclined to hedge all exposure using a forward if they are highly risk adverse. On the other hand, GM may be willing to pay a premium for an option to ensure the still receive the upside if they are not so risk adverse.

  • 35. Similarities Between Ran And King Lear Despite contrasting contexts, a well developed understanding of the shared ideas between two texts has been achieved through comparative study. The play King Lear (1606) but William Shakespeare and the Japanese film adaptation Ran (1985) by Akira Kurosawa share similar values despite coming from different parts of the world, and being written in different time periods. The concept of Chaos highlights the need to respect the values of society, and Justice is used throughout both texts to explore morality and the consequences that one s actions possess.

The retina first layer is made up of rods and cones cells it location is a back of the where it takes light from the rod and cons and turns it into signals then gives it of to the optic nerve.The retina in my opinion is one of the most important parts of the human eye because if there no rentia the signals can be made and signals won t be transported to the brain.

  • 37. Early Moorish Architecture In America Moorish architecture is the Western term used for describing North African and Spanish (Andalusian) Islamic architecture. Moorish style architecture in America was largely fantastical rather than archaeological and often combined with many other styles. This type of architecture in America was seen as very exotic and many of the buildings constructed in this style were non traditional. The details of the early Moorish Style were usually blended with forms from Egyptian, Turkish, and Indian styles.

During the nineteenth century, these styles were referred to as the Oriental Style, while Asian styles were referred to as Chinese. The Oriental Style ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
