![The Romantic Movement Of Mary Shelley s Frankenstein,

Frankenstein: Romanticism
The novel, Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley, demonstrates many different romantic
ideals such as, the adoration of nature, extreme location, nationalism and exaggeration
of emotions. The romantic movement was in response to the reason and logic
dominated enlightenment era. Frankenstein, contrary to the enlightenment,
demonstrates romanticism through glorifying one s feelings and straying from the
classroom towards nature. Shelley s ideals paralleled that of: Edmund Burke, Jean
Jacques Rousseau, Mary Wollstonecraft, John Locke and the poem, The Rime of the
Ancient Mariner , all of which express romantic ideals.
Nature is very important to romantics; it is a departure from the enlightened ideals of
study and the classroom environment. Dr. Victor Frankenstein shows a great
appreciation of nature through diction, especially through Edmund Burke s idea of
the sublime. Burke s article, On the Sublime, defines sublimity in relation to nature,
astonishing [...] with a degree of horror , which is a feeling Dr. Frankenstein
frequently describes when he is in nature. In one passage, Frankenstein uses the
words, troubled , awful majesty , wonderful and stupendous , vast and glittering
(Shelley 101). These words resemble the sublime by combining the beauty of nature
and the terror it s vastness brings, just as Burke illustrates. Shelley also uses imagery.
Imagery portrays the beauty that the character s see in nature to the reader. One

- 3. The Poem TheWood Poem Chopping wood, it seems like a task that is unnecessary in modern world. Have you ever chopped wood? Have you ever held an axe in your hands and then with all your might, hammer down on a piece of wood with the hopes it will split right in half? Imagine a three foot axe in hand and your only task is to split the maple log in front of you. All around you are trees and the other logs and pieces of wood you have gather to either process or store for later use as fuel, but how much is enough fuel? Reginald Gibbons uses stimulating imagery, and metaphors in his poem, Wood , to illustrate the difficult task of chopping wood through a first person perspective, but upon further inspection, the poem describes the need to have more than what is necessary and the different thoughts and feelings the unnamed character has during this repetitive labor. Right away, I noticed the large amount of imagery that was used in this poem A cylinder of maple / set in place, feet spread apart / and the heavy maul, fat as a hammer ( Wood 1 3). The first paragraph gives an accurate depiction of the action and visuals of what it is like to be outside on a cold day to split wood. Gibbons uses a heavy amount of imagery, mainly sight, in this poem. Each stanza has some form of imagery within it. The choice of words and style he decided to use puts a very weighty and, at one point, even put a darker mood over the poem. Right away, he describes the process of splitting wood; this sets up the setting of the poem. In the second stanza, the mood gets a little dark when he says, till the blood is wrung from your back ( Wood 22). This implies that the work the person is doing is not easy work and that it is painful and tedious work. The weighty use of imagery and his selection of wording paints a picture of arduous labor. The person in this poem is a mystery. There isn t any hint to who he is, where he s from, or any other details about him. We only get to know what he is doing. The ideas that are presented to the reader, like So much less than what we have been / persuaded to dream ( Wood 14 15), could be a subconscious thought from this mystery character. We and us were each used once in the poem, implying that

In the Old Testament animal sacrifices were required to create a clean space for God and humans to overlap, allowing human sin and ugliness to overlap with divine perfection and love.

He plays the role of bringing God and humans back together by taking sins away from sinners so that we appear perfect in God s eyes as Jesus was.

In contrast to the possible invalidation of Adnan s alibi, Adnan could have been at the library all afternoon as well as Hae at the school since the state s timeline has some errors.

It is thought that the Parvocellular pathway is our primary source for recognition and identification, but there are speculations that its allocentric frame of reference can also be used in a more egocentric approach (i.e., the Parvocellular pathway is able to elicit an autonomic response like the Magnocellular pathway).

Power Of TheFittest By Richard M Emerson Essay POWER DEPENDENCE RELATION INTRODUCTION When the whole world is silent, even one voice becomes powerful Malala Yousafzai Power is a term that breaks all boundaries and establishes its intensity. The concept of power has pre domitantly existed in the society. It has become the prerogative of human survival as power has become the ticket to suppress others and move ahead in the society. As Charles Darwin formulated the theory of survival of the fittest the very nature of power becomes evident. Richard M Emerson an formulated the famous Power Dependence relation on the basis of these paramaters. In the very beginning of his theory Emerson states that there is an existence of ambiguities surrounding the terms power , authority , legitimacy and power structures .The Power Dependence relations attempts to bring about a sense of balance. According to this theory, the dependence a person has on another brings up the concept of power .1 Emerson brings forth a similar concept as presented by Max Weber whose presentation was basically a typology rather than an organized theory of power. Emerson brings about an argument that says that social power is in dire needs of a systematic treatment. He criticizes the common norm of treating power as an attribute of a person or group. He also proceeds to rank order persons by some criterion of power and this ordering is called the power structure . So to wind it up in definable terms we can say

We can read Angela Carter as both entertaining and a critique of constructions and presentations of power, gender, sexuality and construction of gendered identities. First we will consider the oppressive and destructive power of patriarchy which is the social system in which men are regarded as the authority within the family and society. Afterwards in the next chapter we will investigate how Carter s heroines succeed in constructing their femininity and their gendered identities.

Lorna sage asserts: Uncle Philip has made images of them as toy monkeys, they are in his power, and ......Melanie joins them in this house. 2 Carter tries to tell readers through The Magic Toyshop how Uncle Philip s power 1could turn Melanie into a victim and this exposes a kind of bullying male power. In her penultimate novel Nights at the Circus, Carter mocks and explodes the constructive cultural stereotypes of femininity and masculinity. The novel is divided into three sections: London, St.Perersburg and Siberia and Carter conducts it like a circus. The embodiement of the patriarchal power is in the characters of Walser, Christian Rosencreutz, Grand Duke. For example, early in the novel, in London Carter displays Walser s continous attempts to fix Fevvers to paper or to disclose her as a hoax to secure immortality of profession acknowledgement. The journalist Walser who represent the power of patriarchy comes to interview Fevvrers. He is more ambitious about dismantling and distroying the identity that is presented to him than trying to understand it. This is a condition of his journalistic ambition but it also an act of misogyny to aliegn Fevvers to his own image of what a women should be. He intents on fixing and writing Fevvers s identity in a manner that suits his

Hamlet Foils Decisions In theplay Hamlet, Shakespeare incorporates the theme that an individual s decisions, whether conscious or unconscious, which are made on earth will foreshadow their outcome in the afterlife. Shakespeare establishes this theme through the contrast of the character foils, Hamlet and Laertes. While both characters do act upon their decisions, Shakespeare clearly shows the difference between the influences of their actions.

This action shows that Laertes intentionally committed mortal sin, as he had, full knowledge and consent to his actions (CCC 1857). Hence, making Laertes was aware of what he was doing and where these actions will lead him to Hell. In addition, Laertes shows a disrespect towards the Claudius, calling him a vile king (4.5.114). During the Elizabethan era, the King was viewed as the messenger on earth for God (Wilson 1). With the King being viewed as God s representative, Laertes s decision to call Claudius vile is him further condemning himself to Hell because he is not only insulting the kill but God. According to Catholic principles,a person goes to Hell when they, die in mortal sin without repenting and accepting God s merciful love means remaining separated from him for ever by our own free choice (CCC 1033). In regards to Laertes s actions and the Catholic definition of who qualifies for Hell, it is evident that Laertes is on the highway to Hell. Thus, Laertes s destination to Hell is an predictable fate. Laertes will go to Hell an exact result of his conscious action to sin against God and not seek out

Antoine Arnauld sArgument Analysis In objection to Descartes reasoning behind his attempt to establish that what is true, is clear and distinct perception, Antoine Arnauld argues his reasoning is circular. Before explaining why circularity is evident, I will first consider what Descartes truth rule really consists of. After establishing cogito ergo sum , Descartes uses the same logical terminology in which the cogito was established, to attempt to find other truths in the external world. However, as the is no causality between cogito and external truths, some further proof is required for Descartes. This is at the point Descartes introduces the argument for Gods existence and hence, we get the truthrule established. He argues that God exists and is not a deceiver, in which...

In order for something to be certain, it must at least have duration in the mind. This means that even when not concentrated on, it is still knowledge with the potential to be certain. Some beliefs, on the other hand, can be certain without God s existence for their truth, but only for as long as they are concentrated on. Such beliefs are clear and distinct, and therefore true, when thought of and not dependent upon a non deceiving God that would assure us of their truth. Their truth is established by their being clear and distinct when concentrated on. The contradiction lies with what Descartes considers eternal truths , that geometrical facts, such as the area of a circle is equal to ПЂr^2, or the fact that three angles of a triangle are equal to two right angles, are all only true because of Gods existence and non deceptive nature. This with consideration to Descartes response to Arnauld, leaves up with the implication that an eternal truth is only true once we clearly and distinctly perceive it, and then not true, when the attentiveness of geometric truths leaves our mind; sounding like a

In the play Macbeth by William Shakespeare, a brave lord name Macbeth was once great, but tragically lost everything after being told about his future and what he is destined for. Macbeth would soon be motivated by these prophecies and would start doing terrible deed just so no one can get in his way. Macbeth s action starts to depend on the prophecies and he soon would start to get confident, but would start to lose things in his life one by one due to his highly confident thinking and also leads to his failure. The prophecies are told by the three witches and they are told a certain way which would make Macbeth curious. For the first prophecy the witches greets Macbeth All hail, Macbeth!

Learn the list of prefixes in the table following this section: they correspond to the number of carbons present in the compound. The following silly statement will help you remember the order of the first four prefixes since they are not ones you are familiar with: Me eat peanut butter. This corresponds to meth , eth , prop , and but , which correspond to one, two, three, and four carbons, respectively. Now that we have a stem, we need an ending. There are three common hydrocarbon endings; the ending changes depending on the structure of the molecule: * ane = alkane (all single bonds and saturated); CnH2n+2; saturated: it contains the maximum number of H s * ene = alkene (contains double bond, unsaturated); CnH2n *

It is a common misconception that the only way to communicate with someone is by verbally speaking to them; but how would people communicate if one lost the ability to speak? The episode Hush in Buffy the Vampire Slayer an Emmy nominated series displays the relationship between talking and communicating, when evil creatures called The Gentlemen steal the voices of the citizens of Sunnydale. Buffy and her friends finds ways to communicate better than when they had their voices. In the episode Hush , when Buffy and her friends lose their voices and the ability to talk to each other, they are able to resolve their issues and, ironically, communicate best when they cannot speak. Buffy and her love interest Riley are able to better communicate with each other after they lose their voices. Throughout the episode, it is evident that Buffy and Riley like each other but are struggling to find a way to express and act on their emotions. This in part is due to the fact that both of these characters have a secret, double identity that they are keeping hidden from each other. Buffy is a vampire slayer and Riley is a covert operative for the United States military. They both help keep the town of Sunnydale safe from any harmful threats. Furthermore, attempting to be honest about their feelings, while also keeping such a tremendous part of their lives concealed from each other, has both of them struggling to find

United States OfThe African American Male Students Essay Upon the premise of further exploration, Mari Ann Roberts found a definition of what is meant to care for underachieving African American male students. Roberts surveyed eight African American teachers to attain their point of view of what it meant to care for their students which included informing them about how to survive in the racismof the United States of America that they will and are exposed to (Roberts 456). The discussion of political clarity was addressed by several teachers to help students understand the importance of education and emphasized that they believed, for Black people, academic achievement would eventually equal equality (Roberts 458). It should be noted the research identified teachers believed: informing the students about socio political/colour talk matters helped them to understand as African Americans you have to work harder to make it in the U.S (Roberts 458). Finally, this study points out students needed to be pushed to work harder and encouraged to change their demeanor to not give Caucasians reason to hurt them in any fashion as far as advancing academically (Roberts 458). Several participants encouraged and demonstrated code switching suggesting Students change their speech, dress or behaviour to reflect a more Europeanised or neutral background for the purposes of occupational or educational advancement.

Most importantly, the act has aspects of both comedy and tragedy. In scene 3.3 and 3.5 malapropisms are used with Dogberry and Verges a lot to create humor. Malapropisms are when the author substitutes words that either sound the same but are different words, or when he substitutes a word that is the complete opposite. These are used to show that Dogberry is a fool and out of order. Equally important, scene 3.2 has elements of tragedy in them. After Benedick has a talk with Claudio and Don Pedro, Don John pulls Claudio and Don Pedro aside and tells them that Claudio has dishonored him and cheated on him. This is one of the most tragic
- 25. The Romantic MovementOf Mary Shelley s Frankenstein, And... Frankenstein: Romanticism The novel, Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley, demonstrates many different romantic ideals such as, the adoration of nature, extreme location, nationalism and exaggeration of emotions. The romantic movement was in response to the reason and logic dominated enlightenment era. Frankenstein, contrary to the enlightenment, demonstrates romanticism through glorifying one s feelings and straying from the classroom towards nature. Shelley s ideals paralleled that of: Edmund Burke, Jean Jacques Rousseau, Mary Wollstonecraft, John Locke and the poem, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner , all of which express romantic ideals. Nature is very important to romantics; it is a departure from the enlightened ideals of study and the classroom environment. Dr. Victor Frankenstein shows a great appreciation of nature through diction, especially through Edmund Burke s idea of the sublime. Burke s article, On the Sublime, defines sublimity in relation to nature, astonishing [...] with a degree of horror , which is a feeling Dr. Frankenstein frequently describes when he is in nature. In one passage, Frankenstein uses the words, troubled , awful majesty , wonderful and stupendous , vast and glittering (Shelley 101). These words resemble the sublime by combining the beauty of nature and the terror it s vastness brings, just as Burke illustrates. Shelley also uses imagery. Imagery portrays the beauty that the character s see in nature to the reader. One instance of

The rich will not be able to bribe there way out of this problem. It will snowball and grow to be a bigger and bigger problem for those at the top of the economic latter. The boss will never be able to forget poor and suffering Bartleby. Never again will the boss be able to bush off the images of the poor and suffering, and instead he will be haunted by them. Bartleby may not even be there, maybe he really did leave when first asked. It does not really matter, all that is important is that the boss can not forget Bartleby whether he is there or not. Bartleby seems to be the one being tortured in the story, nobody said the revolution would be easy for the poor. However, the key is that while Bartleby may be depressed, he had a great effect on his boss, torturing his mind. This is what the revolution will look like, the rich and powerful will become crippled by the thought and actions of the poor. They will quickly realize that they will never be able to get back to the way they were. Things will change at the hand of the rich from the poor, and it will only take one small spark,

They announced a civil peace which meant that all previous conflicts or issues would be set aside for the duration of war. They also began the mobilization for World War I. When the emperor first declared the policy in 1914, the people were joyful and in awe. By 1915 and 1916, the people s views shifted from being optimistic to opposing war because war caused them to overwork and was the source for the food shortages; the government lost many of their supporters as a result. To end, in 1918, civilians from both sides who was either opposing war or supporting it affected the German population because of their different opinions which led to the defeat of Germanyin World War I. Most people in Germany supported the emperor s idea of civil peace . The other people who disagreed were forced to agree whether they like the idea or not. In August 1, 1914, German Emperor Wilhelm II gave a speech at the royal palace in Berlin filled with a crowd of 40,000 people. Wilhelm II desired to unite the country by telling his people that all that matters now is that we Germans stand together like brothers (Doc 1). The speech that he conveyed rallied up the Germans to hope for the unification of their country by standing up together as brothers to help unite Germany. Wilhelm II s view of a civil peace was supported by an abundant amount of civilians.

In infants, their first step to walking involved them taking the risk of falling down. Children take risks of losing whenever they play a game of competition. High school students take risks when they take standardized exams such as the SAT which serves as a measuring stick between themselves and their peers. Adults who apply for a job take the risk of not getting accepted or eventually fired. Old people take the risk of getting up everyday and face the possibility of injuring their frail bodies.

Prebisch states that international exploitation of trade is caused by the trade policies of the core states. International economic policies favour countries in power subsequently resulting in the unfair exchange of trade (Craig, 2005). Therefore, trade barriers such as tariffs and taxes should be implemented so that a certain amount of protectionism could be applied to the local market so that the level of imported goods could be balanced off with the number of export together with local markets.

These correlations show a positive trend for the FGA being a reliable assessment for balance and gait of PD patients. The TUG and FGA did not correlate as closely with a .57, but this difference is assumed to be due to the fact that TUG measures one characteristic while the FGA measures provides more in depth views of gait and balance. Overall, the FGA concurrent validity still resulted as an efficient assessment to use. The FGA cutoff score was set at 18, meaning that if a patient scored an 18 or lower in functional gait assessment, they were four times more likely to fall than patients who scored over an 18. This cutoff score was chosen for its accuracy in sensitivity (80.0%) and specificity (80.6%). There were 43 patients who scored an 18 or under with 25 of those 43 patients experiencing an unexplained fall during the six month interval. This gave a positive predictive value of 58.1%.

Because there was such an increase in trauma from these accidents it became apparent that there needed to be more prehospital care in

The six questions are quite different from the normal driving theory test questions that you would find when taking a driving test, in fact they are to some extent a bit nerdy . It s just for fun and the only prize on offer is your own satisfaction at getting the answers right. So have a go and see how you get on. Question 1 Most regulatory signs are circular. Those having a red ring or red circle indicate a prohibition, such as the examples shown below. The graphic or text in the sign is usually black on a white background. There are however two regulatory signs that use a yellow/orange colour as well (and no, they are nothing to do with traffic lights). So, what are they? stop no overtaking Question 2 The button
- 37. Social Mobility InThe UK The first indication that shows low social mobility in the contemporary UK is the educational disadvantage. The education system in the UK does not provide equal opportunities for children and youngsters from different social backgrounds. This disparity can be seen in the strong connection between educational achievement and social class (!). The State of the Nation 2016 report published by the Social Mobility Commission revealed that in the last ten years, 500,000 children from less privileged families were not ready for schoolby age five (!). Furthermore, poorer children have no adequate access to high quality childcare, although they need it most (!). It therefore appears that children from less privileged backgrounds face disadvantages already before school age, which can have a negative impact on their further educational achievements. For example, looking at th7e results of the General Certificate of Secondary Education(GCSE) in 2014, it can be... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Moreover, young people from poorer families are less likely to go to universities than others (!). 55% of the 1600 respondents in the survey conducted by YouGov claimed that poorer people in the UK have lower chances to attend university, compared to 29% thinking that the chances are equal (!). These examples demonstrate that children and young people from poorer families are disadvantaged in terms of education opportunities. Therefore, many people in the UK do not have the possibility to move up the social ladder. Educational inequalities indicate that social mobility is low in British society. Another indication of low social mobility in British society is the unequal opportunity in the workplace. Access to the professions and the average

Like the density,melting point and the boiling point with these we are able to identify the unknown liquid and unknown solid that we are given. In order to get the density of a liquid we are first going to divide the mass of the liquidby the volumeof the liquid in order to get us the density. In order to get the density of a solid we are going to divide the mass of the solid by the volume of the solid in order to get us the density of the solid. Next we are going to want to find the boiling point of a liquid we find this by placing a thermometer and test tube into a beaker with some water in it. Then we boil it and record the data we are going to want to record the start of the boiling and constant temp of the boiling then use this equation ( Start of boiling + constant temp of boiling ) / 2. This will give us our boiling temperature+/ 5 degrees. Finally we are going to want to find the melting point of a solid we do this by placing the tube in the device that determines the melting point of a solid. Then we...

Now for the second section of the experiment to find the boiling point of a liquid we are going to need a thermometer, beaker , test tube , heat source we will boil the liquid and get the boiling point of it by using the equation ( t1 + t2)/2. To get the melting point of a solid we are going to need a mel temp, bunsen burner , thermometer, and a capillary tube. We should not need any equations because once the liquid form of the solid starts to melt we will record that temperature +/
- 39. Telescopes Are ThoseThat Use Both Mirrors And Lenses Catadioptric: Catadioptric telescopes are those that use both mirrors and lenses to produce an image. The most common or popular type of catadioptric telescope is the Schmidt Cassegrain telescope. Schmidt Cassegrain telescopes (SCT) are a catadioptric design, meaning they use both lenses and mirrors. SCTs are primarily reflecting telescopes, but they use a corrector lens to eliminate aberrations that would result from the mirror design alone. In an SCT the incoming light passes through the Schmidt corrector lens (also called a corrector plate) at the front of telescope. It is reflected from a concave primary mirror at the back of the scope which focuses the light to the front of the telescope where it is reflected again by a smaller, convex secondary mirror. Finally, the light travels back through a hole in the primary mirror to the rear of the scope where an eyepiece is located for visual observing. (Starizona.com, 2015) Below is a ray diagram of a Schmidt Cassegrain telescope: (A levelphysicstutor.com, 2015) At first it seems that an SCT should have a focal length twice as long as the length of the tube, since the light travels twice the length of the tube. However, SCTs actually have focal lengths about 5 times longer than the tube length. This is due to the convex curvature of the secondary mirror. This effectively magnifies the focal length, making the scope act much longer than it is. The diagram below shows how a Cassegrain type telescope (such as an SCT)

The Difference BetweenBisimulation And Forced Simulation Literature Review: The difference between Bisimulation and Forced Simulation Haowei Zheng hzhe024@aucklanduni.ac.nz 1.INTRODUCTION Currently, component reuse techniques have become more and more important for handling the rapidly increasing complexities of component based embedded system. Bisimulation is a well known technique which has been proposed in the very early stage of simulation development. It provides the functionality of checking for process equivalent in process algebras. Many applications have been developed by using this technique. However, there are still some issues regarding using bisimulation technique. One specific issue is component matching problem. To better resolve this problem, a new technique which is called forced simulation is proposed and developed. In this article, we will carry out a literature review to discover the difference between forced simulation technique and bisimulation technique. In the following sections, first of all the component matching problem will be explained more detailed. Then the definition of bisimulation and forced simulation will be shown. After that, an example of these two different techniques will be shown for comparing the difference between them. 2.COMPONENT MATCHING PROBLEM In component based embedded system, component reuse methodologies has been an important focus of industry since the complexities of modern embedded system are increasing rapidly. However, there are several unresolved issues in this
- 41. Comparing Dr. KinboteAnd John Shade By Vladimir Nabokov Dr. Kinbote and John Shade Vladimir Nabokov is an artist that accentuates the aesthetic pleasure which patterning affords. The fabric of Pale Fire is woven with a dense texture of mirrors, doubles, parodies, games, riddles, masks, and disguises. In the story, such games of perception (particularly the notion of reflection and misconception) creates a disparity between reality and fantasy. One of the most well known and multifaceted line in the poem comes from the first stanza, fifteenth stanza, and supposedly the last: I was the shadow of the waxwing slain. The absence of the 1000th line and this disruption of the poem s symmetry suggests the transition from a mere perception to reality, that John Shade was no longer the shadow but the smudge ...

Yet, in the midst of all this, one thing that is clear is that Kinbote does in fact resemble a part of John Shade and by knowing this, we can understand better why Shade does feel empathetic towards Kinbote.

This is why this essay will discuss the problems faced by opposition political parties in Zambia using the structural functionalist theory. First it will explain what structural functionalism is, then it will define structures, functions, a political party and an opposition party then before giving the conclusion it will discuss the problems faced by opposition parties in Zambia.

The Media is also another structure involved with the dissemination of information to the society. According to Almond and Powell (1966) a political party needs to communicate with the electorate. Every time opposition parties receive coverage in an article, have their face on television or their voice on radio, they assume that they increase their chances among potential voters. In Zambia however instead of the media being one of the means of popularity exposure for opposition parties, it tends not to give them enough time because of the media being influenced by government. Zambian Economist (accessed on 17.12.13) states if the press was free we would for example expect high degree of information compared to a government controlled media . Hence this becomes a problem for the opposition. The Judiciary has a function of enforcing the law and making sure the rule of law is observed. The Zambia Reports (accessed on 9.12.13) states UPND chairperson for Tourism and Culture Ephraim Belemus said Acting Chief Justice Chibesakunda was compromised and her continued stay at the helm of the Judiciary had proved costly to the justice system of the country . From this quotation we can tell that in Zambia the opposition political parties have been shut from making meaningful contribution to the nation. This absence of effective participation in the political process is a very serious limitation that Zambian opposition parties face. The executive is in

Earthquakes are a natural phenomena and are easy to explain, but hard to predict. The key to surviving an earthquake requires preparation and knowing how to take action before, during and after an earthquake. Knowing how to survive an earthquake is a matter of life or death. Earthquakes are deadly. An earthquake is a shaking of the ground caused by the sudden breaking and movement of large sections (tectonic plates) of the earth s rocky outermost crust. The edges of the tectonic plates are marked by faults (or fractures). Most earthquakes occur along the fault lines when the plates slide past each other or collide against each other (Moon). Earthquakes ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Stay calm. Slowly look around and access the damage. Aftershocks may occur so the danger may not be over. Put on shoes in case of broken glass. If trapped Tap on a pipe or wall or use a whistle, if you have one, so that rescuers can locate you (Earthquakes). Stay away from down power lines to avoid electric shock. Smell for leaking gas. If there is a smell gas get out of the building. Do not light matches. Check for broken sewage lines before flushing toilets. Be careful crossing bridges, they may have been damaged in the earthquake and could fail under the weight of a car. The earthquake may have damaged water lines. The water may not be safe to drink. Now is the time to drink the bottled water. Make sure to conserve water, it may be days or weeks before there is safe drinking water. Follow the emergency plan. Notify friends and family members of the current conditions. Avoid the temptation to go sightseeing, emergency personnel need to get through to those in need. Stay alert and prepare for aftershocks. Aftershocks are smaller earthquakes that happen after a bigger earthquake. These may cause additional damage to building that have already been damaged and can delay the cleanup of the 1st earthquake. After surviving an earthquake don t sit back and relax, start preparing for the next

Torres, who went missing in the Korean War and presumed dead in early 1954, was finally laid to reset at the Fort Sam Houston National Cemetery. The belated funeral was a relief to his family. Until last year, Luis brother had prayed for his miraculous return. Their mother firmly believed that Luis would return alive as his body was not found. His nephew has contacted with authorities and POW (prisoner of war)/MIA(missing in action) organizations for over a decade to collect information to facilitate the search for his uncle. With the positive identification of Luis Torres remains, the Torres family was able to trace Luis whereabouts in the last six decades.... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Historians are also interested in the reasons for the debacle of Torres company in the summer of 1950, as it contributes to the unending analysis of the U.S. military tactics and battles during the Korean War. Moreover, Torres brief capture and tragic execution added fuel to the claims of the ordeals and brainwashing of American POWs in Korea. They not only lead to dozens of documentaries and propaganda films, but also a considerable number of books published by journalists and POW /MIA activists. In recent years, some balanced, primary sources based studies are also available in academia. These books provide insights of how the Korean War changed American perceptions of being a POW and intimated why the country was reluctant to remember the returned prisoners and the war. However, there are more groups of intriguing questions to ask from the Torres story. First of all, why was his remains kept in the Punchbowl without his family s request rather than in a memorial cemetery in South Korea like the U.S. soldiers resting in Meuse Argonne after WWI, or the sacrificed servicemen in Ardennes or Manila after WWII? Secondly, how was Torres body recovered after he was declared missing? How did the U.S. military or government persuade both Koreas to return or help to recover the remains of other American MIAs in

These machines are everywhere, from our homes to stores and even classrooms. While all of us may not be television junkies, many of us do occasionally watch a show here and there. The issue of what can be shown on broadcast television has been at the center of conversation for years, especially the issue of airing nudity on television. Ask anyone who watched Superbowl XXXVIII in 2004 what the final score was and they may not remember, but they will definitely remember what happened during the halftime show, when Janet Jackson s breast was exposed to the entire American audience due to a wardrobe malfunction. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... For instance, in the 1950 s there were complaints of starlets plunging necklines that prompted broadcast television networks to create their own indecency rules (Triplett, pg. 230). Fast forward to today s era of television and there is the overall performance of the Superbowl halftime show, where there Jackson s outfit reveals cleavage and there tends to be no controversy over her plunging neckline. So while moral values may have declined in America, going to the extreme, such as airing a bare breast, is still too much for some Americans to withstand. According to information found by Triplett, more than 530,000 complaints were made to the FCC after the Superbowl incident (n.p.). From that, plunging necklines have now become acceptable, but revealing a bare breast still causes great controversy, even when it was just an accident. The sexuality that arises from the event is what is fueling the debate over nudity in television, which leads in to my next point that the general American society perceives nudity as
