Judith Butler, in her book Gender Trouble, presumes that gender is not predetermined by sex, but instead is dictated by the gendered acts of people themselves. No universal gender exists, according to Butler; there is always a way to reinterpret and reassign behaviors to the masculine or feminine, and both biological men and women can exhibit male and female traits and identities. The assumption that there is an inherent identity of women as "female," according to Butler, is erroneous, and it does not need to be represented at all. No one can "be" a specific gender; it all lies upon a certain ...

Mountain pine beetle (MPB) (Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins) is a bark beetle that lays eggs within the vascular system of the mature trees of lodgepole pine (Pinus
contorta). First known epidemic infestation was recorded in 1994 in the forests of British Columbia (BC). Prior to 1994, the infestation was negligible, owing to the fact that extreme low temperatures of winter killed the beetle, thereby curbing the problem. In the past two decades, however, due to global warming the winter temperatures are not low enough to kill the beetle. This has escalated the problem of deforestation and thereby has unbalanced the ...

These two sonnets, “Remember” and “The Cross of Snow” are well composed to convey the feelings of sadness after death but differently. Christina Rossetti’s speaker in “Rememer” wants to be remembered initially but later in the poem does not mind if forgotten ‘for a while’ after death. On the other hand, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s speaker in the “The Cross of Snow” has not been able to forget his loved one for the past eighteen years. Longfellow makes use of religious imagery and metaphor to convey the message of the speaker.
One noticeable difference between both the poems ...

The two poems analyzed have several features in common. First of all, they are both classical in their form, being built as sonnets, with Leda and the Swan being classical and The True Story of Snow White being an envelope sonnet.

Sonnet shape and classical plot resonate with each other, allowing writings to be particularly expressive in their poetic narrative.

It was just another cold day in the frozen land. But my instincts were signalling that it was not a day to travel. The weather seemed gloomy and perilous. Though I was warm in my hirsute, yet I wanted to sit by some fire. It was better to nestle in under a mound of snow and safeguard my balminess. To walk miles on such a day did not seem fascinating at all. Seemed foolish in fact! But something quelled my intuition and drove me to walk along this human- a man with queer actions. I felt a bout of nebulous disquiet which probed me ...

HadCM3 stands for Hadley Center Coupling model version three. This global climate model (GCM) was developed by the Met Office Hadley Center for Climate Science and Services in 2000, and was used as one of the major GCM ever since, starting from the Third Assessment Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 2001.

Water molecules interact with other water molecule through a weak hydrogen bond. Hydrogen bonds allow water to interact also with other polar substances. Water is known as the universal solvent. Thus, it has the capacity to dissolve various polar substances like ammonia and nonpolar substances such as methane (Freudenrich, 2011).
