Swearing holds a unique place in society that is rife with contradictions. It can elevate one’s image as bold and assertive, and simultaneously diminish another’s image as uncouth and aggressive. It is perceived as unacceptable language in the classroom, yet essential on the sea deck. There is an innate hierarchy in swear words or phrases, which is constantly shifting. Societal change largely dictates acceptance or rejection of obscenities. Some words or phrases become acceptable within common vernacular and others mutate into objectionable vitriol. Words that were heard only in watering holes are now common on primetime television. In ...

Over the course of history there has been a close relationship between rhetoric and music; this is especially evident in the Baroque period (rhetoric).

Until relatively recently in Western society, music was an form primarily focused on vocals, and consequently words were of extremely high importance. Due to this trend, composers were usually inspired by rhetorical principles when coalescing text and music (rhetoric). Likewise, even after instrumental-centered music became popular, rhetoric principles continued to be relied on in creating both vocal and instrumental music.

What is still largely unclear is how the interrelationships influenced the craft of composition. This is ...

Global warming together with climate change that comes with it has produced a heated debate as to whether or not human anthropogenic activity induced climatic shifts pose an actual threat to the Earth and humankind.

Background

The IELTS test is one of the most significant single measures of student ESL skills, as it relates to class placement, program acceptance and more.

The findings derived from the study could be used to improve program criteria, or testing approach in order to increase accuracy of placement, and improve student performance, among non-native ...

Adoption is placing a minor with one or more guardians that are not the birth parents. In the US, adoptions are categorized into foreign and domestic, with domestic adoptions being coordinated by an adoption agency, independently, or a state agency. Adoption has changed previous perceptions in regards to families: trans-racial, gay, open, and international adoptions have transformed families to include more than simply individuals with biological relations. Additionally, adoptions have allowed gay couples to have children, and thus changed past perceptions that a family had to have a man and a woman for them to have offspring. According to ...

Amongst mentally ill patients at high risk for early readmission, does the utilization of a multi-component transition care plan as compared to usual care help to improve early readmission rates?
