Challenging Stereotypes
There is a spectrum presented here. The films in this class that we have seen
gradually became more and more vulgar, more and more obscene and it was our job
as film students to decide what that inherently meant. I spoke in the beginning of this
paper about the goals and responsibility of us film makers. Michael Brooks lists
these responsibilities as: Knowing Your Message, Challenging Stereotypes, Fairness
in Documentary, Providing Context and Reason, and lastly Being True to Your
Vision. (Brooks) All of these questions I asked myself when watching these films.
Were they challenging stereotypes? Were they providing context and reason behind
the choices made? In my opinion, the answer is not clear. In America, the issue of the

Under communism property disappears, which according to Kollontai, includes
institutions like marriage. In order to be a true communist, one must be able to
have sex freely, just as one is free from possessions and economic classes. All of
these films inherently create this look at communism in practice and all the flaws
it brings forth. Communism in thought is a perfect idea but in life it creates an
ideological argument that is just a façade. An ideology that argues for freedom,
but in practice does everything but. No wonder film after film in Eastern European
Cinema has been continuously advocating for liberation and freedom from these
socialist ideologies. I think it is reasonable to say that Kollontai s argument clearly
coincides with Coriliss argument about the amount of sex that should be present in
movies but one thing both forget to mention is the effectiveness? Yes, it is true that
the freedom to create the stories you want and the films you want stem directly
from the sexual liberation movement in Eastern Europe but once achieved, is sex a
necessary tool anymore? Do not get me wrong, I am not trying to insinuate that the
use of sex in film is no longer necessary, but for the reasons they did it for so long, is
the tool still

A person could lose approximately one hundred and seventy calories just by
playing the violin for an hour. In addition, if one were to play at a young age
studies show they develop better motor skills (Lai Tong, Brendan). How did this
fascinating instrument come to light? The violin has been around for over five
hundred years; scholars have debated the exact origins of the violin. Although, most
scholars agree that the violin evolved from the fiddle and the rebec from the
medieval period, the early 15th century (Estrella, Espie). In its early years the
instrument was not seen as being magnificent, but in time it became a huge

the epitome of technical and artistic aspects. Isaac Stern and Fritz Kreisler where

paper earlier at first the fabrication of violin s strings were with goat gut. Now they
are created out of synthetic materials or steel and twisted with various metals. The
strings are also strung tighter, about fifty percent. Back then people did not use a
chin rest like they do now; in fact, chin rests weren t even brought until the 19th
century (Powers). The fingerboard and the neck are now longer than they use to be.
Some other changes include that of the bass bar and the sound post; both are thicker

Big Brother is watching you (Orwell 2). This quote is from the novel 1984 by
George Orwell. In this book, the society is controlled by an all powerful government
that capsizes the people s brain so that there is no independent thought. Citizens are
constantly being watched and monitored while all they can do is support them and
pour out hate to the enemy thinking the party is always right. Hope comes to a man
named Winston, the protagonist, a lone man who secretly opposes the manipulation
of the mind. After the plot unravels, Winston begins to show his opposition against
the party. The party controls everything in the society and puts everything the way

It is clear that Orwell uses the technique of reasons to develop his theme that
thoughts can be controlled. Moreover, Orwell uses the technique of loaded words
to develop his theme of thoughts being controlled. With a tremulous murmur that
sounded like My Savior! She extended her arms toward the screen. Then she buried
her face in her hands. It was apparent that she was uttering a prayer (Orwell 16).
Citizens are brainwashed and controlled to have deep feelings about Big Brother
and that it is everything. Other citizens are also brainwashed the same way
because they see others doing this and follow the people around them, The horrible
thing about 2 Minutes Hate was not that one was obliged to act a part, but that it
was impossible to avoid joining in (Orwell 11). Peer pressure makes people think it
is right to do many things. Controlling minds and truth is ultimate power. Truth is
subordinated to the Party (Davis 250). Fake history is also created. Citizens will
believe anything the Party puts in books. Their minds are too controlled to rebel
against the party. Fake enemies are also created. It relieves the citizens anger when
they are allowed to say anything against them. It is shown that Orwell uses the
technique of loaded words to expand his theme of controlling thoughts. Last, Orwell
uses the technique of bandwagon appeal to expand his theme of thought control. The
party is able to control real life
Myths Of The Mound Builders
Myths of the Mound Builders The first time I heard about the Mound Builders,
which was in this class, these people seemed like a very primitive group. What was
so exciting about having the skill of piling up a bunch of dirt. Then I was able to see
some of these mounds and the scale was nothing I had imagined. These mounds were
huge and also contained distinct structural shapes. Tombs, houses, and religious
structures were constructed in or on top of the mounds. What made the edifices even
more amazing was the time period they were built. Constructed all the way back to
3000 B.C., the mounds rivaled the most advanced engineering techniques in the
world. An interesting aspect involved with the Mound Builders were the way they

They were able to obtain huge assembly of artifacts and precise surveys that are
still used to this day. Another major contributor to the understanding of the Mound
Builders was Cyrus Thomas. He was an entomologist and botanist that was made
the head of the Division of Mound Exploration. Thomas gathered his assistants and
set out into the Mississippi Valley to study the earthworks. During this time the
mounds were being destroyed by looters and fought to keep the mounds in good
condition. Over seven years Thomas was able to survey more than two thousand
mounds and collect tens of thousands of artifacts. He then wrote an a work called
the Report on the Mound Explorations of the Bureau of Ethnology. In this report
Cyrus was able to explain the diversity and integrity of the Mound Builder culture.
The Native Americans were now able to be viewed as people who had a rich past,
not one of barbarism as thought before. These were people that deserved respect and
gratitude for providing such interesting achievements for mankind. As one can see,
the earthworks of the Ohio and Mississippi valley are critical in the understanding
the past. They provide great clues about the migration of the Ancient people of this
land. It is still not understood how the Western World was settled and under great
debate. Any clues that are available should be used and the mounds are a great
source. Native

who in turn introduced him to European Avant grade art of which she felt had some
spiritual and utopian aspect. (Heartney, 1999). As a result, Guggenheim changed his
strategy of collecting and turned to the work of Wassily Kandinsky, just to mention.
Initially, he displayed his collection at his apartment in New York City to the public.
His collection grew and in 1937, he established Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation

The Crowd A Study Of The Popular Mind Summary
Gustav Le Bon Charles Marie Gustav Le Bon was a sociologist, psychologist, and
physicist who is well known for his writing in each of these fields. Le Bon was a
witness to the actions of the French Commune, in the spring of 1871, what he
refers to as the French Convention in his essay The Crowd: A Study of the
Popular Mind. He was greatly influenced in what he saw during this revolutionary
uprising and analyzed the actions of crowds and the way they acted differently
than the individuals within them would (Wikipedia, n.d.). The individuals in the
crowd lose their conscience personality and adopt the thoughts and actions of the
psychological crowd. Le Bon points out that the size of a psychological crowd could
be as small as a half a dozen and as large as a nation, and the combined influence
driving them to act does not have to be negative, but could easily have a positive
vibe (Le Bon, 1926).... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

hockey team lost the final game of the championship. Shops were looted, windows
were broken, and police cars were set on fire all of this was done because of a lost
sports game. Fans devastated by their favorite team s loss collectively began taking
their frustrations out on the environment around them. In this case, the crowd did not
resort to violence towards each other but attacked the buildings and symbols of
authority in the downtown core. The members of this crowd were doing things and
behaved in ways that they would not have as individuals. Years later when the police
had compiled extensive video footage they were able to press charges against some
of the worst perpetrators in the riot, and some of them turned out to be honor students

A Brief Note On Pesticides And The Environmental...
1)Rationale and References:
Neonicotinoids are important pesticides. They are used to kill a variety of pests.
Many researches have been done with neonicotinoids. Researchers have found that
neonicotinoids have toxic effects on many non target species, one example being
insects. This results in reduced growth, insects have problems reproducing and insect
populations have also been declining as a result of this. Researchers have classified
the effects of the insecticides based on US Environmental Protection Agency s
ecotoxicity classification system. Three insecticides: imidacloprid, clothianidin and
fipronil all showed adverse effects on insects. There have been hundreds of scientific
publications over the last 20 years that have talked about the adverse effects of
neonicotinoids on pollinating insects. Also very low concentrations of neonics have
an effect of insects.
Reason why neonicotinoid pesticides is popular in controlling pests is because of its
water solubility. Water solubility lets neonicotinoid to be applied in plants and then
taken up by the plants. This, in turn helps kill insects in plants. The first
neonicotinoid, imidacloprid, can just be sprayed on the plant. But it is more useful
when it is applied to the soil instead. These insecticides help control beetles, fleas,
cockroaches and other flies.
However, there are many environmental concerns associated with the application of
these insecticides. Research has shown that it is actually toxic to bees and

well but at this point its difficult to feel as if though this whole process is made to
help us. I am now left without a mentor and forced to take an exam in which I was
not given a proper environment for. In addition, a group of us went to see the
President whom was busy but was told by his secretary that he would reach out to
one of us which has yet to occur. So now the day after examining we find out that
there is now three days given to those who did not meet requirements on the week
in which the program was set to be done. I don t see how 90% of the cohort has
special accommodation to test next week but the 6 or 7 of us who did not meet
bench mark yesterday have to wait 2 weeks and will receive an incomplete for the
following 8 weeks. This has not only affected my confident but also the day in which
I will be allowed to test for the NCLEX . I hope that all these discrepancies if not

This novel, which originally started out to be a novel discussing Ken Kesey s
(author of One Flew Over The Cuckoo s Nest) life as a fugitive wanted for drug
possession living in Mexico, from there developed into this journal of Kesey s
band, the Merry Pranksters, and their tripped out adventures. 8) One of the most
outstanding features of The Electric Kool Aid Acid Test is the simplicity of it to
read. The journal style writing Wolfe used allows the reader to be absorbed into the
LSD fantasy world the Pranksters were living in. Also, Wolfe s meticulous attention
to detail adds to this effect and carries out his thesis of re creating the atmosphere in
which these acidheads existed. 9) Although it provides and interesting
documentation through the use of journal form writing, Wolfe probably failed
English class due to the multitude of fragments and disregarded sentences. (This
may have also been a trippy effect, too.) Another disappointment is in the author s
note; Wolfe tells how much of the book was written through the use of viewing
film. It takes away from the first hand experience developed and slightly challenges
the authenticity of the material. But, it s only a disappointment if you actually read
the author s note. 10) The Electric Kool Aid Acid Test is a must read, but not in lieu
of it being a well developed literary masterpiece.
The Importancement Of A Personal Statement On
Technology...
Throughout my academic and professional achievements, technology played a pivotal
role in helping define who I am to this day. At an early age, my eight grade math
teacher creatively introduced me to programming. After receiving twenty four hours
of detention for being my math teacher s nemesis, I learned my first programming
language, from the same teacher. One afternoon, the instructor saw me sitting idle
and offered me a deal. The instructor explained, once I finished my homework; if I
could write a computer programwhere a ball bounced across the screen, he would
subtract one hour of detention off my time for every trick the ball did. This seemed
like something I could not refuse.
To my disbelief, I spent more time studying and learning GW BASIC and then
developing my program, than I ever spent on any subject in the past. Nonetheless,
I stuck with the agreement. By the end of the semester, not only did I write my
first program; somehow, I managed to become a member of the Gilmore Junior
High School Math Science Team. To this day, I have no idea how I went from
being a break dancing super star and trendsetter to openly sharing soda and chips
over the unveiling of the team s new Apple IIe computer, especially with students I
considered socially challenged. As I matured and moved from programming to
advanced systems, this experience became the foundation of how I would approach
learning technology and working on teams where people embraced different values.

Internet based courses can offer a unique opportunity but do they also offer unique
challenges? Every college course whether taken on campus, by traditional distance
means or through a MOOC (Massive Open Online Course), challenges the student
academically. That is the nature of higher education. Distance study and especially
MOOCs, can make particular demands on students. Recognising these specific
difficulties should allow us to identify the characteristics or skills which will aid the
student. The major difference between an internet based course and one presented in a

Where there are active forums or other social channels in use these can act both to
address issues of understanding and to encourage continued participation. Average
completion rates of 7% are common
(Jordan) with some courses having fewer than 1% of registered students achieving
certificates. Research suggests that that those who are regularly access forums are
more likely to continue their studies (Koller et al).
Even those who are committed to a course and engage fully with the social aspects
face one final issue; time management. Full time campus based students have the
freedom to focus on their studies almost without distraction. Part time students,
whether in college or studying remotely, need to fit their study time around work,
family, domestic and other commitments. Time is a finite resource so the best that
can be done is to manage it effectively. This means being able to estimate how long
tasks will take then prioritising, sequencing and delegating to make sure that they are
done.
Although time management is sometimes seen as making a plan and sticking to it, in
reality, a good time manager needs to be flexible and responsive to changing
situations. This is as true of a learner planning their studies as for a project manager
balancing the needs of customer and sub contractors.

How Portraiture Has Changed Over The Years
Portraiture has been around for many years, dating all the way back to cave drawings.
It is an art that has continued to progress and evolve while maintaining the key
elements that classify it as portrait making. Despite the fact that as an art it has
changed throughout history, portraiture continues to be an integral part of society.
Even though the subject matter seems simple and limited, there are infinite amounts
of ways a person can be creative when it comes to designing a portrait. There are a
multitude of ways a portrait can be created, depending on the tools that are used and
the style the artists desires the portrait to be. Portraiture has continued to develop
throughout the years, starting with cave drawings, leading up to today where
everyone is constantly taking photographs. However, at one time it was not so easy
to come by a portrait. Originally if someone wanted a portrait to be done, it would
have to be requested of an artist. Before photography, portraits were typically done in
paintingmedia such as oil paint, which meant once an artist was commissioned it
could take months before receiving the final product. Portraits are also closely
associated with the wealthy or the royals because they could afford the price of

It is important to recognize the value that portraiture brings to society, as well as
understand the depth of knowledge and skills that goes into creating any piece of

numerous different emotions. Due to the emotions that portraits produce, they
continue to be a vital part of our lives. Art has always been an essential part of
society and as portraiture and other various types art evolve, while they may be

Joseph Stalin s Use Of Sexism In Russia
Crude, primitive, vulgar ; muddle instead of music ; a cacophonous and
pornographic insult to the Soviet people . Pravda, the Soviet government newspaper,
made these comments after Joseph Stalin attended a 1936 performance of Dmitri
Shostakovich s opera. His second and final opera, Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk, got it
him into all sorts of trouble because it denounced sexism in Russia. After this intense
criticism from the government and threats of arrest, Shostakovich was forced to
withdraw the premiere of his equally controversial Fourth Symphony. In order to
please the government, he quickly put together a more traditional, triumphant Fifth
Symphony (1937); he even referred to it as a Soviet artist s reply to just criticism.

This proves Gergen s thesis, I doubt that people normally develop a coherent sense
of identity, and believe that to the extent that they do, they may experience serve
emotional distress (172). By having several masks or selves, is how we are able to
adapt to changing society. With these multiple masks we are able to achieve
acceptance and know who we are as individuals. Throughout life we must adopt
masks when facing different circumstances; it is through these masks that we see
how we change as individuals. If we spend our lives trying to stick to one mask, we
can find ourselves to feel lost, depressed, or invisible. Change is good; however we
must still stay true to ourselves when using masks. They are a part of us as
individuals but they are not us.
Growing up in a generation with high expectations of identity that are constantly
altering whether it s the latest trends, styles and even mind set principles, can be
over whelming. When asked to describe one self, we often are stuck thinking of
what particular word could fully describe who we are as a person. We have such a
hard time of coming with just one word because there is no form of describing one

Alice Walker s To Hell With Dying appears on the surface to be a story of a man who

Mr. Sweet grew up in a time period where the life between whites and blacks was
very segregated. However, Mr. Sweet had been ambitious as a boy, wanted to be a

This reminds me of Mary and Joseph in the Bible. Joseph in the beginning did not
believe that the baby Mary was carrying was his because he had never slept with
her and because of this Joseph was not going to many her. However, an angel
appeared to Joseph and assured him that he should marry Mary. Both of these stories,
had they not happened the way the did might have different effects. The traditional
story of the Christ child saving mankind might not have happened, and Mr. Sweet
would never have changed the life of Alice Walker.
By Mr. Sweet having these near death experiences it gave Alice Walker her first
sense of the success she could obtain in life. She got the privilege of kissing and
tickling Mr. Sweet, reviving him from his death like state. At the time of Mr.
Sweet s actual death Alice Walker described herself as grief stricken, . . . crazed, and
. . . fighting for [her] own life. [She] was twenty one years old (1148). This is
usually the time when young people find out if their dreams are going to turn into
failures or not, yet for Alice Walker this was an especially hard time since she was
black and perhaps worse, . . . a woman.
From the story we know that Mr. Sweet s life dreams had failed. Alice Walker,
however, did eventually achieve success. She studied at Sarah Lawrence College and
it was only then that she started to remember the magnitude of his problems problems
[she] was just beginning to truly understand as a black man and as an artist,

A Feedback Loop Is A Response Mechanism That

Case study 1
A feedback loop is a response mechanism that influences the continued activity of that
system, maintaining a stable internal environment, called homeostasis. This is
achieved by the control of biological reactions, in which the output forms the input of
a new reaction, and eventually links to form a loop.
A feedback loop consists of three basic components: the control center, the receptors
and the effectors.
When the body is undergoing perturbation, an assortment of specialized cells known
as the receptors detect stimuli. The stimuli are hence processed into electrical
impulses that are inputted to the control center through the Nervous System. At the
control center, the input is analyzed and a decision is made as to how the ... Show

This detection is inputted to the brain as electrical impulses where the sensation of
thirst is then outputted. Once water has been consumed, the system stabilizes again.
This process falls under the Negative feedback category because it is working to
diminish obstruction of an essential set point which in this case is the body s water
ratio.
In other respects, Positive feedback can be identified in the process of child birth
because the cycle is being amplified to reach the child s birth.
The process begins with the child s head which pushes against the Cervix. The stretch
receptors in the Cervix detect stimuli and input the detection to the brain. The brain
then triggers a secretion of Oxytocin from the Pituitary Glands. This hormone is
delivered to the Uterus where it stimulates uterine contractions which thus again push
the baby towards the Cervix. Once the baby has been successfully pushed through, the
system seizes to an end.
This process highlights the vitality of positive feedback to not only preserve life, but
to create it.
Many feedback systems can even overlap one another, such as the production of
Progesterone which is composed of two negative feedback loops. The first loop, or
Luteal Phase, maintains the initial creation of Progesterone by a set point of at least 2
ng/ml.
It begins with the Hypothalamus which releases a Gonadatrophin releasing hormone
(GnRH). The GnRH stimulates the anterior
Australian Voice Essay
Hi everyone! How are you today? Nice to see all you guys here. Let s me introduce
myself first. My name is Jane Kennedy. I am one of writers of the film The Castle .
I m sure that everyone has watched The Castle , right? I m invited to be here and
tell you about this movie as well as how I and my team have built up and shown the
ideas about the voice of Australians through it. As you know, everyone including
Australians have their own way of understanding and an opinion of the world and
people in it. That s called their voice . However, the way Australians view and

It gives them love and they love it too. The next thing I want to say which explores
Australians unique ways of thinking is their belief in what is right or wrong no
matter who is involved. Because the house means everything to Australians people,
they will do everything they can to protect it. My fellow worker also director of The
Castle , Rob Sitch has cleverly and effectively used many film techniques to express
this idea. Do you remember when Darryl and Dennis stand in the Federal court?
There is a big contrast between the underdog and the authorities. The close up and
the medium shots were taken to show his confidence in the facial expression and
body language. On the other hand, the low angel camera shot up to the judge
emphasis the power of the law. These both reveal Darryl s determination of battling
even when he knows that he is fighting against the government. By these techniques,
it s clear to see that no matter how hard the situation is, no matter how limited
individuals ability is, Australians people will still be brave to stand up, fight for their
right and protect their family.
And, last but not least, the very important thing I have to tell you is Australians
willingness to help and fight for underdogs. Later in the movie, Hammil comes to
Darryl and asks to help him to keep the house. In the scene when they went to the
High Court, the costume status has been

Social Media: The Platform for New Activism It was the third semester of my
freshman year in high school when I got the news. I was doing my homework in
preparation for another dreadful Monday at school. I was scrolling through my
Instagram timeline instead of finishing my homework when my mom asked me to
cut on FOX 5 News. Now that the television was on, it gave me another excuse to
procrastinate even more. My eyes were glued to the television as reporters talked
about events that deserved no air time, when suddenly the segment began to air.
The reporter said a black teen, named Trayvon Martin had been shot and killed in
Stanford, Florida by a neighborhood watch volunteer. She said the story was still
developing and information would be coming. It was relayed later that day that the
neighborhood watch volunteer followed and shot Martin because he looked
suspicious and up to no good, also known as black. I was so shocked. I mean, I
knew that hate crimes against black people existed, but I could not tell someone a

Modern Day Revelation Research Paper
Revelation is of the basis of our church and the gospel of Jesus Christ. Without
revelation, the gospel would have never been restored to this earth. Through
revelation,
especially in this modern day, the prophet Joseph Smith was able to restore the

given us all
of the tools to do so in these days. Understanding how and why we receive revelation
and the
importance of modern day revelation helps us to see how much God truly loves us.

Rose For Emily Symbolism
In A Rose for Emily, William Faulkner exploits symbols to represent the struggles
of the people to accept change in society. In this short story, Miss Emily appears to
abhor change within her life and appears to never be able to let go of the ways in

reined true, while everyone else is moving on to acceptthe change and welcome the

Dancing At Lughnasa Analysis
Brian Friel s play Dancing at Lughnasa uses the effect of absence and presence to
create a heartfelt and tense memory play set in Ireland in the summer of 1936.
Michael lives with his mother and four aunts, along with his Uncle recently returned
from Africa. Friel s choice to have an absence of a strong familyunit is important and
it will be considered how this sets the tone for the play. Next, this essay will go on to
examine the way the characters unfulfilled desires add to the overall effect of the

The key themes of the play are each affected by the dramatist s balance of what is
explicitly explored and what is not. The emotions of love and loss are not openly
portrayed yet are present all the same. Each sister has a romantic unfulfilled fantasy,
yet is constrained by her position in society and the financial situation of the Mundy
household. The conflicts of society are also expressed by Friel in the way paganism
and Catholicism are both present yet neither holds force in the household. In terms of
society Friel also makes subtle nods to mass Irish emigration. The absence of many
things in the play offers a bleak output yet underneath there is an optimistic tone, that
dancing remains and all its hopes might be found in those assuaging notes and those

Analysis Of Chinua Achebe s An Image Of Africa
Nathaniel Oehl
4/4/2016
In Defense of Conrad: A Response to Achebe s An Image of Africa In An Image of
Africa , Chinua Achebe comes to the bold conclusion that Joseph Conrad was a
bloody racist (788), with his discussion centering primarily on Conrad s Heart of
Darkness as a racist text. Achebe s reasoning for this branding rests on the claims
that Conrad depicts Africa as a place of negations at once remote and vaguely
familiar in comparison with which Europe s own state of spiritual grace will be
manifest (783), that Africans in Heart of Darkness are dehumanized through both the
characterization of individual Africans and the Congo as a setting, and finally that
Marlow is no more than a mouthpiece for Conrad s personal views on race and
imperialism. However, Achebe makes critical oversights and contradictions in the
development of each of these argumentative pillars, which prove fatal to the
validity of his overarching contention. This should not be construed, though, as a
yes or no assessment of whether Conrad was a racist outside of what his written
work suggests Achebe himself has neither the desire nor, indeed, the competence
to do so with the tools of the social and biological sciences (783) but as an
assessment of claims specific to Heart of Darkness and their implications for
Conrad s views and attitudes. Achebe s first allegation is that Conrad, and Western
society in general, develops Africa as a foil to Europe in order to draw attention to

Single Sex Schools Most teenagers don t like the sound of single sex schools. Our

almost seems that the theory has been thrown into the shadows and the word high

Students try to make themselves look better picking on each other, just to impress
the opposite sex. In reality the same genders get into fist fights because of gossip or
drama spread through both female and male. With single sex schools there wouldn t
be that everyday problem because students wouldn t be surrounded by the opposite
sex to fire up a conflict.
Most people would be against single sex schools because kids wouldn t be getting
the same experience as mixed gender schools. Students in single sex schools
wouldn t be aware of all the violence, drama and life situations between genders,
which happen in mixed gender schools. In a way these two types of schools live in
different worlds.
Students in one gender schools wouldn t have as much dating experience as a two
gender school does. They could meet each other outside of school, but they wouldn
t have much time to get to know each other. Dating experience is important, so a
person can be able to handle a relationship. It s like playing a sport you re not going
be perfect at it unless you practice. Most people meet each other through friends, if
you attend a single sex school how are they supposed to know the opposite sex.
With single sex school there would be fewer social gatherings. Also there would be
fewer bonds between people and students would have fewer friends. The connection
with the opposite isn t there to experience as to if it was a mixed school students

An interesting relationship noticed by the Wisers was that of newly wed girls and
their mother in laws. Mother in laws would keep an eye on their daughter in laws
or bahus. These bahus would have to please their mother in laws and take care of
the household and everyone living in the family or in this case joint family where
brothers and their families live together with their parents under one roof.
Therefore, one can see that Karimpur described by the Wisers in 1930 was quite
backward and orthodox. The next half of the paper will be focused on the changes
that took place over the decades in Karimpur. What were the changes in the second
half of the century when Wisers and Susan Wadley visited Karimpur? Firstly, the role
of women had changed a little bit. Secondly, education had increased and more and
more villagers had B.A. degrees and moved to cities to find work. Thirdly,
technological changes had brought enormous agricultural growth in the farms. The
rigid caste system had slowed down a little bit and the mutual relationship of
Jajmani system had declined as well. Finally, the younger generation was more in
touch with the world through cities and education, the lower castes had more access
to land ownership and most of the mud houses were transformed into brick houses
or pakka houses. The roles of women had started to change in the 60s and later as

Chronicle Of A Death Foretold By Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The presenter s conveyed the importance of magical realism, machismo, and
inspiration of the creation of the novel Chronicle of a Death Foretold written by
Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Marquez uses magical realism to structure his novel s
background. Magical realism is a Latin American narrative strategy that combines
magical/mythic and real life elements in order to create a realistic atmosphere.
Magical realism helps the novelblend both reality and fantasy. An example of
magical realism presented in the book was when Pedro says that his groin pain
reached his throat, causing him to not sleep for 11 months (80). This is magical
realism because groin pain exists, but the lack of sleep for 11 months straight is not
authentic. Magical realism

The Red Dragon symbolized their undying commitment to King Arthur (King Arthurs

The Round Table was illustrative of the Eternity of God, the equality, unity, and
comradeship of the Order, and singleness of purpose of all Knights (King Arthurs

The Round Table has different variations throughout history on how many knights
were under King Arthurs rule and actually sat at the table.
The benefit of a Round Table is that there is no established head of the table.
Unlike other kingdoms in which there would be rectangular to distinguish the

The most noble Knights would be allowed to have a seat at the table.

that the students in the video provoked was affirmative action. As I do attend a

Anne was immediately confused by their presence because they seemed to be just

together in the lobby of a movie theater. Anne was with some local white children

one direction and Anne went in after her friends. Her disapproving mother quickly
stopped Anne and they left the theater. Before this instance Anne had never
considered the coincidence that all the white children watched the movie from the

thinking about the difference Anne realized that the bottom terrace and side
entrance was much more luxurious than the raggedy top terrace, where she and
her mother usually sat (38 2). After this the difference in skin color became much
more apparent to her in everyday life. Anne was motivated to find the answers as
to why she was treated differently because of the color of her skin. Several years
later Anne was fifteen and working for Mrs. Burke, a white lady that ran guild
meetings out of her house. By this time the town had began to have misfortunate
events happen to African Americans. It seemed as if they were being ran out of

`` Princess Mononoke `` Directed By Hayao Miyazaki
In an interview with the director Hayao Miyazaki, he states that, When you talk about
plants, or an ecological system or forest, things are very easy if you decide that bad
people ruined it. But that s not what humans have been doing. It s not bad people
who are destroying forests. With problems such as pollution, deforestation, and global
warming constantly on the rise due to human consumption, creative minds around the
globe are incorporating these themes into their works to express their thoughts on
these environmental issues. One of those works is Princess Mononokedirected by
Hayao Miyazaki. In this animated film Miyazaki shines a light on the senseless
destruction of the environment caused by humanity s desire for material goods. The
core theme in Princess Mononoke is simply that if humans continue to mindlessly
devastate the environment we will eventually exhaust all of our resources and destroy
the planet. Many artists, authors, and directors have also dealt with this subject
matter but the way Miyazaki directs and conveys this theme is what makes Princess
Mononoke a truly unique movie. In this film, Miyazaki examines some of the impact
and consequences of environmental destruction and employs techniques such as the
personification of animals to argue that humans should have more respect and take
care of the environment around them. Princess Mononoke takes place during an
unspecified period in medieval Japan. The movie opens with a boar like monster
How Does Sheila Birling Change Throughout The Play
In this essay I will be comparing Sheila Birling and Lady Macbeth at the beginning,
middle and at the end of the two plays and how much power they have and how their
power changes throughout the play.
At the beginning of the play `An Inspector Calls , Sheila Birling is presented as a
typical Edwardian girl with very little power and gains more power throughout the
play. Whereas in the play `Macbeth , Lady Macbeth have more power over her
husband and as the play continues she becomes more typical with not much power.

At the middle of the play Sheila has gained more power. For example in act 2 when
Sheila tells her mother of by saying that impertinent is such a silly word and Mrs
Birling replies in any case Sheila says, But, mother, do stop before it s too late.
The word `stop tell us that she is now in more power and she is telling her mother
to stop talking to the inspector like this. This links with the play as Edwardian
woman are supposed to be non violent. Also she says, you wait mother. By using
the word `you she is commanding her mother and now she is making her own
decision. Before Sheila never talked to her mother like this, this shows that Sheila
has gained more power and can now stand out for herself and decide what is right
for her. On the other hand, Lady Macbeth is gradually losing her power. For
example in act 3 scene 2 she ask Macbeth What s to be done, Macbeth replies Be
innocent of the knowledge. The word `innocent suggest that Macbeth is not
involving Lady Macbeth in his plans and telling her to act more innocent.. This
shows that she has lost power because now Macbeth is in control and he is making
the important decision. Also, in act 3 scene 2 Lady Macbeth speaks to Macbeth
and says, you must leave this, and Macbeth replies O, full of scorpion is my mind,
dear wife The word `scorpion suggest that his mind is now full of evilness. This
tells us that Macbeth has stopped listening to his dear wife and he is now answering
back. We can clearly see that she has lost power over her husband. This links with the
play as Jacobean men made important
Role Of The Church In Medieval Europe
During the majority of Medieval Europe s history from 500 1300, politics,
economics, and many social features of their new civilization were mostly centered
around the church. The church was responsible for alliances within Europe,
assisting in expanding empires in exchange for protection and support. The roles
in societies usually followed a natural order of ruler versus everyone else, whether
it be a Lord as the leader or the later emergence of feudalism. The dominant role of
the church also helped socially, allowing monks especially to take on useful roles
for the rest of society. The church played many vital roles in developing Medieval
Europe. Many kings went through the church in order to create an alliance. These
alliances started with Gregory I in western Europe. He managed to encourage many
Germanic kings to convert to Christianity, and in return provided them with the
good sanction of the church. By providing this mutualistic relationship, Gregory
was responsible for making the Roman papacy a significant power in the West
(Sivers, Desnoyers, and Stow 311). This was a spark that created a flame, causing
many Medieval rulers to realize that the key to success is having the church behind
them in full support. The first Frankish dynasty was created by Clovis, who adopted
Christianity in order to receive the support of Christian bishops in Gaul. Later, in the
eighth century, the Carolingians took over all of the Frankish lands. Charles Martel,

Defect Of Groupthink
Author Janis suggested that the main defect of groupthink is processing information
ineffectively, which would mean that the group decision will be of a low quality.
Janis argued that groupthink leads to an inability to arrive at a high quality
decision, which means that groupthink through the decision making defects leads to
bad group decisions. Janis then contradicts herself by suggesting that some groups
will arrive at a good decision even in the face of groupthink, especially if the leader

Darwin s Influence On Charles
Charles Robert Darwin was born February 12, 1809 in the United Kingdom. He
was the fifth of six children. Born at home in his family house called The Mount.
He shares his birthday with Abraham Lincoln who would also change the wolrd.
By the age of eight Charles already had a love of collecting and natural history. In
the summer 1825 Charels Darwin tried to be a doctor like his father but he found
school to be dull and blood made him queasy so he negleted his studies. He started
to realize that his love was else where. Darwin zealously collected beetles, studied
taxidermy and sought out free thinkers.
Things really took off for Charles Darwin when he was invited to join the survey
expedition on the HMS Beagle. The trip was to last 2 years but
Characteristics Of A Discourse Community
The human identity is worn as a mask with shapeshifting capabilities and espionage.
In the real world, this mask appears simplistic; however, the internet is an abstract
space of node connections that streams a wild flurry of ideas, people, and identities.
One s mask does not need a definition to stand firmly in this chaos but merely need to
express what is hidden beneath the mask: humanity. That is what it means to have the
right to anonymity, the freedom of expression and the right to be protected from
outside entities who will stop at nothing to forcefully seize the mask along with
physical data. One discourse communitydedicated to protecting the rights to
anonymity is the Tor Project, a worldwide group that helps create an anonymous
browser to hide identity details and participates in establishing it in journalism,
academia, activism, and normal users. The exploration of the rights of anonymity
will be examined through the discourse community characteristics of Tor by
reviewing Porters and Swales works in discourse communities, by using methods of
primary investigation through interviewing Tor members, and discussing how Tor fits
into Swales six characteristics of a discourse community.
Literature Review
Two definitive works done by Swales and Porter has helped established on the
definition and criteria of a discourse community. While Swales was the primary
source of information for Porter s own piece, Porter can develop a more in depth
view on discourse communities.
Ancient Greece And Rome Vs. Rome
Classical Greece and Rome were ancient civilizations that existed 2500 years ago,
and are regarded by numerous scholars as the foundation of humanities in various
fields. In popular culture, Ancient Greece and Rome are portrayed substantially in
books and movies; however, not many people are aware of how they also shape our
thoughts, ideals, and motivations. Through an analysis of classical elements often
portrayed in popular media, this essay attempts to illustrate how the representation of
ancient Greeceand Romein books and movies influence our lives and emphasize the
need to stay informed as these influences can be both beneficial and detrimental to
our perception of the world.
The way ancient culture can impact our ideals is demonstrated by various
contemporary adaptations of Greek mythology. For instance, in 1997, Walt Disney
produced the animated movie Hercules, based on stories about the legendary
Greek hero who persevered through numerous labors and challenges and
eventually gained a place in Mount Olympus, the home of the gods. Hercules was
a major box office hit among children and had left a deep impression on how they
perceive the qualities of a hero. Similarly, the 2004 film Troy, based loosely on
Homer s the Iliad, tells the story of the hero Achilles and the Trojan War. Troy was a
critical success, grossing nearly 500 million dollars worldwide. But the movie did not
exhibit merely entertainment values: studies found Troy also established on the male
Solar Phone Screens Advantages And Disadvantages
Introduction
A solar cell is defined as energy of light being converted into electricity they are
most commonly known for being the driving force behind solar panels. Solar panel
phone screens are a recent addition to possible technologies that promote prolonging
battery life and conserving energy in mobile phones.
Generally, they work by soaking up energy received from the sun s rays and then
converting it into useable electricity. This is a practice in the context of mobile
phones is relatively new found and has not seen widespread commercialization. As
with any young technology, there of course comes disadvantages with its use and
function.
However, in this case the benefits seem to outweigh the shortcomings as there is little
harm done towards the environment. Various companies are showed a direct interest
in the future of solar powered screens, larger companies such as Apple (Apple patent
hints at potential solar cell embedded touch screens, p2) have in fact shared job
listings in relation to the development of this technology in their future phones.
What it is?
Solar panel phone screens are simply another way to reduce the toll of high energy
consumption found in phone devices today. It is a pre existing technology and idea,
the same design comes from traditional solar panels which receive sun light, and
large enough to offer considerable electricity to power an entire household.
Solar panel phone screens can be described as a more portable and compact rendition

South Africa Apartheid (oppression)
Oppression is at the root of many of the most serious, enduring conflicts in the world
today. Racial and religious conflicts; conflicts between dictatorial governments and
their citizens; the battle between the sexes; conflicts between management and labor;
and conflicts between heterosexuals and homosexuals all stem, in whole or in part, to
oppression. It s similar to an article in south africa that people have with racial
segregation between black and white . Many people need to know that indiviual
have their own rights in laws and freedom . Everyone should have an equal rights
and better community . A black person would be of or accepted as a member of an
African tribe or race, and a colored person is one that is not black or white. The
Department of Home Affairs (a government bureau) was responsible for the
classification of the citizenry. Non compliance with the race laws were dealt with
harshly. All blacks were required to carry ``pass books containing fingerprints, photo
and information on access to non black areas. The apartheid in South Africa which
was in effect from 1948 until 1994 was not only a racist policy which greatly affected
the quality of life of minorities in the country for the worse but was a outright crime
against humanity. It include with civil right that violence verses non violence that the

Mainstreaming Of National Australia Bank
Mainstreaming of National Australia Bank: The most widely used the perspective of
cultural change and can reflect very tangible and visible across the organization
(Schultz, 1994). There must be a consensus across the organization and that can be
reflected through different media organizations such as performance targets and
metrics, formal and informal rules, business strategies and management practices
governing the stories.
Differentiation Perspective: Culture is considered as an amalgam of different cultures
combined or picked up that bind within the limits of the organization as a whole
(Martin, 2002). Since it is more focused on the contradictions at the core of the
culture that gives the organization the opportunity to correct these inconsistencies
best culture background. If inconsistencies are identified various cultural initiators
can be identified within the organization, both internally and externally. Ambiguity
Perspective: This perspective does not follow the opinion of integration and
differentiation of cultural perspective, it suggests that the relationship between
cultural manifestations do not have adequate clarity but lack clarity (Martin, 2002).
Individuals in an organization may have views and shared values with each other,
but in certain views or values may be different. It is seen as the most realistic
perspective on culture, allowing employees to bring forth the issues with which they
do not agree with their line managers (Frost et al., 1991). Once
Where Great Teaching Begins Summary
The teaching method changes based on which age and grade level one is teaching.
The varying ability of students alters the teaching style of every classroom and
subject. The most significant differences are the style of teaching and the complexity,
but the general lessons and core concepts do not change by grade level. The education
field is very diverse and constantly evolving creating a challenge for teachers to keep
up with the most recent methods tested to be the best for learningand long term
retention of knowledge. Early childhood and elementary educators tend to use more
visual presentations and hands on activities. While, middle and higher educators
typically use more lectures, group learning, and large project based teaching methods.

Ms. Freundlich begins with a review of the previous day s main topic then begins a
connecting lesson. This teaching method gave several great ideas of reinforcement
of concepts from class sharing to mirroring the teacher to helping you classmates
learn (Freundlich). A variety of chants were used to keep the classroom upbeat and
children focused on the topic at hand. Another method used to keep the students
attention is to involve them in the simplest tasks and teachings. She also did a great
job teaching her math lesson with gestures and basic language slowly building up
to the complex level of core curriculum. The last observation is the smiley and sad

In this section, a brief overview of the research topic will be looked into which
defines the key concepts, gives description of context and scope of the investigation.
This section also provides the aims and objectives of the research topic. Finally, the
methodology of the research study will be discussed.
1.1TITLE
The limitations challenging further integration of information and communication
technology (ICT) in Nigeria s secondary schools: An assessment through secondary
school teachers and students.
1.2REASON FOR CHOICE OF TOPIC
Over the past decade, technology has had far reaching impact on the way we live,
changing the way we work, learn, and communicate even the way we carry out our
regular, daily activities (Seifer and Mihalynuk, 2003). The role of ICT in education
extends beyond service learning classes and activities by providing more effective
experiences for faculty, students and community participants (Seifer and Mihalynuk,
2003).
The need for ICT in Nigerian secondary schools cannot be overemphasized. In this
technology driven era, everyone needs ICT competence to thrive (Adomi and
Kpangban, 2010). Although efforts have been made to ensure that ICTs are available
and utilised in Nigerian secondary school. However, the level of inculcation remains
low (Adomi and Kpangban, 2010). Goshit (2006) found out that most schools, both
private and public, do not offer ICT training programmes. The Federal Government of
Nigeria, in the National
Rape in the Book Speak Essay
Psychologists usually agree that the teenage years are among the most difficult
periods in one s life. Most teens are trying to figure out who they are, what they
believe, and how they fit into the world around them. Beginning in the late 1970 s, a
whole genre of fiction, referred to as coming of age literature, emerged and serves, at
least for many teens, as believable presentations of young people learningto navigate
the difficulties of their lives, often fraught with feelings of rejection, seemingly
unresolvable personal turmoil, social problems, school and family issues, etc. Indeed
one value of reading is to see and better understand some aspect of ourselves through
studying others. The reading of SPEAK, a somewhat controversial book... Show more

A trait that stands out in the book is the symptom of bodily memories. In Melinda s
case, during a frog dissection in her science class, she remembers the opening up
and even says, She doesn t say a word. She is already dead. A scream starts in my
gut I can feel the cut, smell the dirt, feel the leaves in my hair. (81). One of the
other symptoms that Melinda has is self harm. The first time that this is shown in
the book, Melinda says this, I open up a paper clip and scratch it across the inside
of my left wrist. Pitiful. If a suicide attempt is a cry for help, then what is this? A
whimper, a peep? (87). Melinda also has a hard time talking to her parents about the
rape to which she says, How can I talk to them about that night? How can I start?
(72). Some victims recover from such a traumatic experience, while others don t
and live a lifetime of depression and must undergo intense therapy. In Melinda s
case, she finds redemption by talking to her parents and the guidance counselor, and
putting her faith into her teachers, friends, and her art project at school. Because
rape can affect anybody anywhere, everyone should be aware of the circumstances,
and how to deal with it. Another large part of Melinda s life is her journey on
learning how to trust, and being able to know who is trustworthy. Some of the people
that need your trust the most are the people you are around the most like your
teachers, parents, family, and friends. A large part of trust
Description Of The Road Trip
Road Trip It was the morning of July 5th, 2015. My alarm sounded off at around
4:30 AM telling me it was time to get ready and head out. I grabbed my duffle bag
full of clothes, got in my truck, and headed to my girlfriend s house who lives five
minutes away. I pulled into the driveway with excitement rushing through my
body. She was standing there, all packed, wearing a Boston Red Sox hat. We had
gone shopping the night before for food and drinks we thought we needed. We had
a cooler full of ice and piled everything up in there and placed it in the trunk of our
car along with our tent, blankets, and other miscellaneous items we were going to
need. Multiple pillows lined the backseat, and a trashcan was placed on the floor to
collect our... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Downstairs we picked up some breakfast that the hotel provided, checked out, and
then got back on the road headed to Tennessee. It wasn t long until we crossed the
border into the Volunteer State, and the first big city we stopped in was Nashville.
We parked in a garage and walked around for a couple hours, taking everything in.
stores lined Main Street, filled with cowboy boots and souvenirs that could draw
anybody s attention. Knowing that we were on a tight schedule, we bought a few
souvenirs then were on our way to the last stop of the day. We know found
ourselves in the boondocks of Lebanon, Tennessee. I turned onto the dirt road that
led to the campground we would be staying at. After taking almost twenty minutes
to set up our tent, we threw our air mattress inside and were forced to blow it up on
our own, since the electric pump decided to short circuit. The humidity was so
heavy that I nearly passed out because of it, but we both managed to make it
through the night safely with only a few bug bites. We were on the road again in
the morning heading to our next hotel in Arkansas. The landscape began to open
up, and on either side I could see fields of corn span for miles. After hundreds of
miles, we made it to our next spot and got some much needed sleep. The next day,
we crossed over into Oklahoma. The landscape wasn t much different here, but this is
where we met Route 66. We first visited the Route 66
EQ vs. IQ
EQ vs. IQ
You are four years old and are seated by yourself at the kitchen table. Your mom
places one piece of your favorite candy in front of you. She explains that you can
eat it right now, but if you wait while she leaves the room to do a quick chore, you
can have two pieces of candy when she returns. She leaves the room. What do you
do? Do you grab the gooey goody the minute she s out the door? Or do you patiently
sit there resisting temptation hoping to double your treat upon her return? Do you
know that your our reaction to this situation may very well determine the degree of
your success in life? A similar study with children was actually conducted by a
psychologist using marshmallows. The study showed that children ... Show more

He states that his goal is to redefine intelligence and success. He believes that EQ is
the equivalent to what we used to call character and contributes more to a person s
success than brainpower, measured by IQ tests. He claims that IQ is not
everything, that high IQ people are not always the most successful, and that it does
not determine one s course in life. Emotional factors could be important. He states
that there are five main abilities involved. A high EQ involves knowing one s
emotions. It involves managing one s emotions. It involves motivating oneself. It
involves recognizing emotions in others, or empathy. It involves the ability to
handle relationships. Hans Eysenck in his book A New Look Intelligence states that
this whole theory is built on quicksand and that there is no sound scientific basis.
Goleman insists that this is no abstract study. He is looking for solutions, which will
restore civility to our streets and caring to our communal life. He sees practical
applications everywhere for how companies should decide whom to hire, how
couples can increase the odds that their marriages will last, how parents should raise
their children and how schools should teach
China s Recent Urban Planning
Study Context and Data Sources
2.1 Beijing s Recent Urban Planning
Beijing is the capital of China and one of the most populous cities in the world. The
current population as of 2014 was over 21 million. The area of Beijing Metropolitan
Area (BMA) is 16,410 square kilometers. According to land use dataset of Beijing
Institute of City Planning, the total urban area as of 2012 was 1,675 square
kilometers. The BMA currently comprises 16 administrative subdivisions, as
presented in Figure 1.
Figure 1 The Beijing Metropolitan Area Since the latest administrative boundary
adjustment of Beijing in 1958, there have been five urban master plans drafted in
1958, 1973, 1982, 1992 and 2004. Each master plan was associated with a planned
overall land use map. Individual land parcels in the map were assigned with a land
classification of either urban (residential, commercial, industrial, public green land,
and mixed use land) or non urban (farmland, forestland, and wetland) (Long, Gu, Han,
2012). The maps guide the future urban development, and actual land uses should
conform to the land classification plan.
Since the beginning of the 1990s, the BMA has experienced an unprecedented
increase in population growth and urban development. By the year 2003, Beijing s
population and urban built up area had already surpassed the capacity set forth in
the 1992 2010 Master Plan, seven years ahead of the plan s scheduled expiration
date. To address new challenges and plan for greater

World Wildlife Funds work has resulted, for example, in setting aside more than

The establishment of the 11 million square mile circumpolar Southern Ocean Whale
Sanctuary to help the recovery of critically endangered species like the blue whale.
The creation of the Turtle Island Heritage Protected Area, the largest green turtle
rookery in Southeast Asia and an important nesting site for hawksbill turtles (World
Wildlife Fund, 2). Without this organization the public would not be aware of what
is really going on and the extreme danger wildlife is in right now.
Another group that feels very strongly about saving our environment is Greenpeace.
In 1971, a small, but determined crew made its way through the freezing waters of
the North pacific to protest nuclear weapons tests planned for Amchictka Island. This
crews name was, Don t Make a Wave Committee, who is better known now as
Greenpeace (Greenpeace, 1). Greenpeace, like the World Wildlife Fund, dedicates
their lives to protecting the environment and presently has about 3 million members

What Can You Learn From Writing A Research Essay.pdf

  • 1. What Can You Learn From Writing A Research Essay Writing an essay on the topic "What Can You Learn From Writing A Research Essay" presents a unique set of challenges and intricacies. At first glance, it may seem like a straightforward task, but delving into the intricacies of the subject reveals the depth of understanding required. To begin with, one must possess a thorough comprehension of the research process itself. This involves not only identifying a relevant and engaging topic but also conducting extensive research to gather credible and diverse sources. The ability to sift through an abundance of information and select pertinent data is an acquired skill that develops with experience. Crafting a compelling thesis statement is another hurdle. It requires a keen understanding of the chosen topic and the ability to articulate a clear and concise argument. The thesis serves as the backbone of the essay, guiding the writer and informing the reader about the essay's purpose. The actual process of writing involves translating research findings into a coherent and structured narrative. This demands a command of language, organization, and style. Striking the right balance between providing information and maintaining reader engagement is crucial, making it necessary for the writer to possess both analytical and creative skills. Moreover, writing a research essay necessitates adherence to academic conventions and citation styles. Consistency and accuracy in citing sources not only enhance the essay's credibility but also demonstrate a commitment to academic integrity.

Michael Brooks lists these responsibilities as: Knowing Your Message, Challenging Stereotypes, Fairness in Documentary, Providing Context and Reason, and lastly Being True to Your Vision.

Under communism property disappears, which according to Kollontai, includes institutions like marriage. In order to be a true communist, one must be able to have sex freely, just as one is free from possessions and economic classes. All of these films inherently create this look at communism in practice and all the flaws it brings forth. Communism in thought is a perfect idea but in life it creates an ideological argument that is just a faГ§ade. An ideology that argues for freedom, but in practice does everything but. No wonder film after film in Eastern European Cinema has been continuously advocating for liberation and freedom from these socialist ideologies. I think it is reasonable to say that Kollontai s argument clearly coincides with Coriliss argument about the amount of sex that should be present in movies but one thing both forget to mention is the effectiveness? Yes, it is true that the freedom to create the stories you want and the films you want stem directly from the sexual liberation movement in Eastern Europe but once achieved, is sex a necessary tool anymore? Do not get me wrong, I am not trying to insinuate that the use of sex in film is no longer necessary, but for the reasons they did it for so long, is the tool still

Then she buried her face in her hands. It was apparent that she was uttering a prayer (Orwell 16). Citizens are brainwashed and controlled to have deep feelings about Big Brother and that it is everything. Other citizens are also brainwashed the same way because they see others doing this and follow the people around them, The horrible thing about 2 Minutes Hate was not that one was obliged to act a part, but that it was impossible to avoid joining in (Orwell 11). Peer pressure makes people think it is right to do many things. Controlling minds and truth is ultimate power. Truth is subordinated to the Party (Davis 250). Fake history is also created. Citizens will believe anything the Party puts in books. Their minds are too controlled to rebel against the party. Fake enemies are also created. It relieves the citizens anger when they are allowed to say anything against them. It is shown that Orwell uses the technique of loaded words to expand his theme of controlling thoughts.

During this time the mounds were being destroyed by looters and fought to keep the mounds in good condition. Over seven years Thomas was able to survey more than two thousand mounds and collect tens of thousands of artifacts. He then wrote an a work called the Report on the Mound Explorations of the Bureau of Ethnology. In this report Cyrus was able to explain the diversity and integrity of the Mound Builder culture. The Native Americans were now able to be viewed as people who had a rich past, not one of barbarism as thought before.

Le Bon was a witness to the actions of the French Commune, in the spring of 1871, what he refers to as the French Convention in his essay The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind.

The individuals in the crowd lose their conscience personality and adopt the thoughts and actions of the psychological crowd.

  • 9. A Brief Note On Pesticides And The Environmental... 1)Rationale and References: Neonicotinoids are important pesticides. They are used to kill a variety of pests. Many researches have been done with neonicotinoids. Researchers have found that neonicotinoids have toxic effects on many non target species, one example being insects. This results in reduced growth, insects have problems reproducing and insect populations have also been declining as a result of this. Researchers have classified the effects of the insecticides based on US Environmental Protection Agency s ecotoxicity classification system. Three insecticides: imidacloprid, clothianidin and fipronil all showed adverse effects on insects. There have been hundreds of scientific publications over the last 20 years that have talked about the adverse effects of neonicotinoids on pollinating insects. Also very low concentrations of neonics have an effect of insects. Reason why neonicotinoid pesticides is popular in controlling pests is because of its water solubility. Water solubility lets neonicotinoid to be applied in plants and then taken up by the plants. This, in turn helps kill insects in plants. The first neonicotinoid, imidacloprid, can just be sprayed on the plant. But it is more useful when it is applied to the soil instead. These insecticides help control beetles, fleas, cockroaches and other flies. However, there are many environmental concerns associated with the application of these insecticides. Research has shown that it is actually toxic to bees and

This novel, which originally started out to be a novel discussing Ken Kesey s (author of One Flew Over The Cuckoo s Nest) life as a fugitive wanted for drug possession living in Mexico, from there developed into this journal of Kesey s band, the Merry Pranksters, and their tripped out adventures. 8) One of the most outstanding features of The Electric Kool Aid Acid Test is the simplicity of it to read. The journal style writing Wolfe used allows the reader to be absorbed into the LSD fantasy world the Pranksters were living in. Also, Wolfe s meticulous attention to detail adds to this effect and carries out his thesis of re creating the atmosphere in which these acidheads existed. 9) Although it provides and interesting documentation through the use of journal form writing, Wolfe probably failed English class due to the multitude of fragments and disregarded sentences. (This may have also been a trippy effect, too.) Another disappointment is in the author s note; Wolfe tells how much of the book was written through the use of viewing film. It takes away from the first hand experience developed and slightly challenges the authenticity of the material. But, it s only a disappointment if you actually read the author s note. 10) The Electric Kool Aid Acid Test is a must read, but not in lieu of it being a well developed literary masterpiece.
  • 12. The Importancement Of A Personal Statement On Technology... Throughout my academic and professional achievements, technology played a pivotal role in helping define who I am to this day. At an early age, my eight grade math teacher creatively introduced me to programming. After receiving twenty four hours of detention for being my math teacher s nemesis, I learned my first programming language, from the same teacher. One afternoon, the instructor saw me sitting idle and offered me a deal. The instructor explained, once I finished my homework; if I could write a computer programwhere a ball bounced across the screen, he would subtract one hour of detention off my time for every trick the ball did. This seemed like something I could not refuse. To my disbelief, I spent more time studying and learning GW BASIC and then developing my program, than I ever spent on any subject in the past. Nonetheless, I stuck with the agreement. By the end of the semester, not only did I write my first program; somehow, I managed to become a member of the Gilmore Junior High School Math Science Team. To this day, I have no idea how I went from being a break dancing super star and trendsetter to openly sharing soda and chips over the unveiling of the team s new Apple IIe computer, especially with students I considered socially challenged. As I matured and moved from programming to advanced systems, this experience became the foundation of how I would approach learning technology and working on teams where people embraced different values.

Recognising these specific difficulties should allow us to identify the characteristics or skills which will aid the student.

Where there are active forums or other social channels in use these can act both to address issues of understanding and to encourage continued participation. Average completion rates of 7% are common (Jordan) with some courses having fewer than 1% of registered students achieving certificates. Research suggests that that those who are regularly access forums are more likely to continue their studies (Koller et al). Even those who are committed to a course and engage fully with the social aspects face one final issue; time management. Full time campus based students have the freedom to focus on their studies almost without distraction. Part time students, whether in college or studying remotely, need to fit their study time around work, family, domestic and other commitments. Time is a finite resource so the best that can be done is to manage it effectively. This means being able to estimate how long tasks will take then prioritising, sequencing and delegating to make sure that they are done. Although time management is sometimes seen as making a plan and sticking to it, in reality, a good time manager needs to be flexible and responsive to changing situations. This is as true of a learner planning their studies as for a project manager balancing the needs of customer and sub contractors. Although all students, regardless of the how they choose

Throughout life we must adopt masks when facing different circumstances; it is through these masks that we see how we change as individuals. If we spend our lives trying to stick to one mask, we can find ourselves to feel lost, depressed, or invisible. Change is good; however we must still stay true to ourselves when using masks.

Case study 1 A feedback loop is a response mechanism that influences the continued activity of that system, maintaining a stable internal environment, called homeostasis. This is achieved by the control of biological reactions, in which the output forms the input of a new reaction, and eventually links to form a loop. A feedback loop consists of three basic components: the control center, the receptors and the effectors. When the body is undergoing perturbation, an assortment of specialized cells known as the receptors detect stimuli. The stimuli are hence processed into electrical impulses that are inputted to the control center through the Nervous System.

This detection is inputted to the brain as electrical impulses where the sensation of thirst is then outputted. Once water has been consumed, the system stabilizes again. This process falls under the Negative feedback category because it is working to diminish obstruction of an essential set point which in this case is the body s water ratio. In other respects, Positive feedback can be identified in the process of child birth because the cycle is being amplified to reach the child s birth. The process begins with the child s head which pushes against the Cervix. The stretch receptors in the Cervix detect stimuli and input the detection to the brain. The brain then triggers a secretion of Oxytocin from the Pituitary Glands. This hormone is delivered to the Uterus where it stimulates uterine contractions which thus again push the baby towards the Cervix. Once the baby has been successfully pushed through, the system seizes to an end. This process highlights the vitality of positive feedback to not only preserve life, but to create it. Many feedback systems can even overlap one another, such as the production of Progesterone which is composed of two negative feedback loops. The first loop, or Luteal Phase, maintains the initial creation of Progesterone by a set point of at least 2 ng/ml. It begins with the Hypothalamus which releases a Gonadatrophin releasing hormone (GnRH). The GnRH stimulates the anterior

Because the house means everything to Australians people, they will do everything they can to protect it. My fellow worker also director of The Castle , Rob Sitch has cleverly and effectively used many film techniques to express this idea. Do you remember when Darryl and Dennis stand in the Federal court? There is a big contrast between the underdog and the authorities.

The reporter said a black teen, named Trayvon Martin had been shot and killed in Stanford, Florida by a neighborhood watch volunteer. She said the story was still developing and information would be coming. It was relayed later that day that the neighborhood watch volunteer followed and shot Martin because he looked suspicious and up to no good, also known as black. I was so shocked.

The conflicts of society are also expressed by Friel in the way paganism and Catholicism are both present yet neither holds force in the household. In terms of society Friel also makes subtle nods to mass Irish emigration. The absence of many things in the play offers a bleak output yet underneath there is an optimistic tone, that dancing remains and all its hopes might be found in those assuaging notes and those hushed rhythms
  • 27. Analysis Of Chinua Achebe s An Image Of Africa Nathaniel Oehl 4/4/2016 In Defense of Conrad: A Response to Achebe s An Image of Africa In An Image of Africa , Chinua Achebe comes to the bold conclusion that Joseph Conrad was a bloody racist (788), with his discussion centering primarily on Conrad s Heart of Darkness as a racist text. Achebe s reasoning for this branding rests on the claims that Conrad depicts Africa as a place of negations at once remote and vaguely familiar in comparison with which Europe s own state of spiritual grace will be manifest (783), that Africans in Heart of Darkness are dehumanized through both the characterization of individual Africans and the Congo as a setting, and finally that Marlow is no more than a mouthpiece for Conrad s personal views on race and imperialism. However, Achebe makes critical oversights and contradictions in the development of each of these argumentative pillars, which prove fatal to the validity of his overarching contention. This should not be construed, though, as a yes or no assessment of whether Conrad was a racist outside of what his written work suggests Achebe himself has neither the desire nor, indeed, the competence to do so with the tools of the social and biological sciences (783) but as an assessment of claims specific to Heart of Darkness and their implications for Conrad s views and attitudes. Achebe s first allegation is that Conrad, and Western society in general, develops Africa as a foil to Europe in order to draw attention to

With single sex schools there wouldn t be that everyday problem because students wouldn t be surrounded by the opposite sex to fire up a conflict. Most people would be against single sex schools because kids wouldn t be getting the same experience as mixed gender schools. Students in single sex schools wouldn t be aware of all the violence, drama and life situations between genders, which happen in mixed gender schools.

These bahus would have to please their mother in laws and take care of the household and everyone living in the family or in this case joint family where brothers and their families live together with their parents under one roof. Therefore, one can see that Karimpur described by the Wisers in 1930 was quite backward and orthodox. The next half of the paper will be focused on the changes that took place over the decades in Karimpur. What were the changes in the second half of the century when Wisers and Susan Wadley visited Karimpur? Firstly, the role of women had changed a little bit. Secondly, education had increased and more and more villagers had B.A. degrees and moved to cities to find work. Thirdly, technological changes had brought enormous agricultural growth in the farms. The rigid caste system had slowed down a little bit and the mutual relationship of Jajmani system had declined as well.

Magical realism helps the novelblend both reality and fantasy.

Her disapproving mother quickly stopped Anne and they left the theater. Before this instance Anne had never considered the coincidence that all the white children watched the movie from the bottom terrace and all the African America children from the top terrace.

But that s not what humans have been doing. It s not bad people who are destroying forests. With problems such as pollution, deforestation, and global warming constantly on the rise due to human consumption, creative minds around the globe are incorporating these themes into their works to express their thoughts on these environmental issues. One of those works is Princess Mononokedirected by Hayao Miyazaki. In this animated film Miyazaki shines a light on the senseless destruction of the environment caused by humanity s desire for material goods. The core theme in Princess Mononoke is simply that if humans continue to mindlessly devastate the environment we will eventually exhaust all of our resources and destroy the planet. Many artists, authors, and directors have also dealt with this subject matter but the way Miyazaki directs and conveys this theme is what makes Princess Mononoke a truly unique movie. In this film, Miyazaki examines some of the impact and consequences of environmental destruction and employs techniques such as the personification of animals to argue that humans should have more respect and take care of the environment around them. Princess Mononoke takes place during an unspecified period in medieval Japan. The movie opens with a boar like monster

The word `stop tell us that she is now in more power and she is telling her mother to stop talking to the inspector like this. This links with the play as Edwardian woman are supposed to be non violent. Also she says, you wait mother. By using the word `you she is commanding her mother and now she is making her own decision. Before Sheila never talked to her mother like this, this shows that Sheila has gained more power and can now stand out for herself and decide what is right for her. On the other hand, Lady Macbeth is gradually losing her power. For example in act 3 scene 2 she ask Macbeth What s to be done, Macbeth replies Be innocent of the knowledge. The word `innocent suggest that Macbeth is not involving Lady Macbeth in his plans and telling her to act more innocent.. This shows that she has lost power because now Macbeth is in control and he is making the important decision. Also, in act 3 scene 2 Lady Macbeth speaks to Macbeth and says, you must leave this, and Macbeth replies O, full of scorpion is my mind, dear wife The word `scorpion suggest that his mind is now full of evilness. This tells us that Macbeth has stopped listening to his dear wife and he is now answering back. We can clearly see that she has lost power over her husband.

  • 40. Role Of The Church In Medieval Europe During the majority of Medieval Europe s history from 500 1300, politics, economics, and many social features of their new civilization were mostly centered around the church. The church was responsible for alliances within Europe, assisting in expanding empires in exchange for protection and support. The roles in societies usually followed a natural order of ruler versus everyone else, whether it be a Lord as the leader or the later emergence of feudalism. The dominant role of the church also helped socially, allowing monks especially to take on useful roles for the rest of society. The church played many vital roles in developing Medieval Europe. Many kings went through the church in order to create an alliance. These alliances started with Gregory I in western Europe. He managed to encourage many Germanic kings to convert to Christianity, and in return provided them with the good sanction of the church. By providing this mutualistic relationship, Gregory was responsible for making the Roman papacy a significant power in the West (Sivers, Desnoyers, and Stow 311). This was a spark that created a flame, causing many Medieval rulers to realize that the key to success is having the church behind them in full support. The first Frankish dynasty was created by Clovis, who adopted Christianity in order to receive the support of Christian bishops in Gaul. Later, in the eighth century, the Carolingians took over all of the Frankish lands. Charles Martel, otherwise known as

Janis then contradicts herself by suggesting that some groups will arrive at a good decision even in the face of groupthink, especially if the leader advocates a good decision. I would try to justify the notion that there is low probability for a high quality decision because there has to be some reference to either low or high when discussing outcome of a decision.

In the real world, this mask appears simplistic; however, the internet is an abstract space of node connections that streams a wild flurry of ideas, people, and identities. One s mask does not need a definition to stand firmly in this chaos but merely need to express what is hidden beneath the mask: humanity. That is what it means to have the right to anonymity, the freedom of expression and the right to be protected from outside entities who will stop at nothing to forcefully seize the mask along with physical data. One discourse communitydedicated to protecting the rights to anonymity is the Tor Project, a worldwide group that helps create an anonymous browser to hide identity details and participates in establishing it in journalism, academia, activism, and normal users. The exploration of the rights of anonymity will be examined through the discourse community characteristics of Tor by reviewing Porters and Swales works in discourse communities, by using methods of primary investigation through interviewing Tor members, and discussing how Tor fits into Swales six characteristics of a discourse community.

Rome Classical Greece and Rome were ancient civilizations that existed 2500 years ago, and are regarded by numerous scholars as the foundation of humanities in various fields. In popular culture, Ancient Greece and Rome are portrayed substantially in books and movies; however, not many people are aware of how they also shape our thoughts, ideals, and motivations. Through an analysis of classical elements often portrayed in popular media, this essay attempts to illustrate how the representation of ancient Greeceand Romein books and movies influence our lives and emphasize the need to stay informed as these influences can be both beneficial and detrimental to our perception of the world. The way ancient culture can impact our ideals is demonstrated by various contemporary adaptations of Greek mythology. For instance, in 1997, Walt Disney produced the animated movie Hercules, based on stories about the legendary Greek hero who persevered through numerous labors and challenges and eventually gained a place in Mount Olympus, the home of the gods. Hercules was a major box office hit among children and had left a deep impression on how they perceive the qualities of a hero. Similarly, the 2004 film Troy, based loosely on Homer s the Iliad, tells the story of the hero Achilles and the Trojan War. Troy was a critical success, grossing nearly 500 million dollars worldwide.

Most teens are trying to figure out who they are, what they believe, and how they fit into the world around them. Beginning in the late 1970 s, a whole genre of fiction, referred to as coming of age literature, emerged and serves, at least for many teens, as believable presentations of young people learningto navigate the difficulties of their lives, often fraught with feelings of rejection, seemingly unresolvable personal turmoil, social problems, school and family issues, etc. Indeed one value of reading is to see and better understand some aspect of ourselves through studying others.

In Melinda s case, during a frog dissection in her science class, she remembers the opening up and even says, She doesn t say a word. She is already dead. A scream starts in my gut I can feel the cut, smell the dirt, feel the leaves in my hair. (81). One of the other symptoms that Melinda has is self harm. The first time that this is shown in the book, Melinda says this, I open up a paper clip and scratch it across the inside of my left wrist. Pitiful. If a suicide attempt is a cry for help, then what is this? A whimper, a peep? (87). Melinda also has a hard time talking to her parents about the rape to which she says, How can I talk to them about that night? How can I start? (72). Some victims recover from such a traumatic experience, while others don t and live a lifetime of depression and must undergo intense therapy. In Melinda s case, she finds redemption by talking to her parents and the guidance counselor, and putting her faith into her teachers, friends, and her art project at school.

Another large part of Melinda s life is her journey on learning how to trust, and being able to know who is trustworthy.

He believes that EQ is the equivalent to what we used to call character and contributes more to a person s success than brainpower, measured by IQ tests. He claims that IQ is not everything, that high IQ people are not always the most successful, and that it does not determine one s course in life. Emotional factors could be important. He states that there are five main abilities involved. A high EQ involves knowing one s emotions. It involves managing one s emotions. It involves motivating oneself. It involves recognizing emotions in others, or empathy. It involves the ability to handle relationships. Hans Eysenck in his book A New Look Intelligence states that this whole theory is built on quicksand and that there is no sound scientific basis. Goleman insists that this is no abstract study.

  • 53. China s Recent Urban Planning Study Context and Data Sources 2.1 Beijing s Recent Urban Planning Beijing is the capital of China and one of the most populous cities in the world. The current population as of 2014 was over 21 million. The area of Beijing Metropolitan Area (BMA) is 16,410 square kilometers. According to land use dataset of Beijing Institute of City Planning, the total urban area as of 2012 was 1,675 square kilometers. The BMA currently comprises 16 administrative subdivisions, as presented in Figure 1. Figure 1 The Beijing Metropolitan Area Since the latest administrative boundary adjustment of Beijing in 1958, there have been five urban master plans drafted in 1958, 1973, 1982, 1992 and 2004. Each master plan was associated with a planned overall land use map. Individual land parcels in the map were assigned with a land classification of either urban (residential, commercial, industrial, public green land, and mixed use land) or non urban (farmland, forestland, and wetland) (Long, Gu, Han, 2012). The maps guide the future urban development, and actual land uses should conform to the land classification plan. Since the beginning of the 1990s, the BMA has experienced an unprecedented increase in population growth and urban development. By the year 2003, Beijing s population and urban built up area had already surpassed the capacity set forth in the 1992 2010 Master Plan, seven years ahead of the plan s scheduled expiration date.
