Philosophy of Sex

It is easy to simply define sex as ‘any contact between two or more individuals in which penetration occurs’; this covers the broad definitions of intercourse as have been commonly understood by societies over the course of history. This definition ostensibly covers oral, vagina, and anal sexual intercourse in a strict physical sense, but manages to ignore some of the greater nuances of the sexual experience. Therefore, this paper will seek to examine and defend a conceptual definition of sex as ‘all acts conveying a physical connection (requiring penetration) between two or more individuals.’ This analysis will be established by stipulating the ...

There is no simple definition of bisexuality because bisexual people are a very diverse group. Some of them tend to monogamous relationship, others may have more than one partner. There are several theories about the different models of bisexual behavior. Thus, there are 13 types of bisexuality based on the sexual desires and experiences. According to Flanders and Hatfield, alternating bisexuals may first have a sexual relationship with a man, and then can choose a woman, and then again return to men. Bisexual on the circumstances are mainly heterosexual, but can choose a partner of the same sex only in those situations where there ...

Non-Governmental Organizations or NGOs have become influential actors of societal development and change on a national as well as international scale. Beginning as non-governmental consultants to the United Nations, the number of NGOs across the world has witnessed exponential growth since the 1980s. Although most people understand what an NGO is - the name itself makes it very clear that these are organizations that are not government run – there is little consensus on what may be described as key characteristics of an ...

Analysis of Temporal Trends in Persistent Organic Pollutants in Air, Water, Food Chain and Humans in United States
Introduction
Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) are synthetic organic chemicals, which are persistent in environment. Its long-range transport leads to global pollution. These materials are lipophilic and they are accumulated in the food chain as they are found in fish and marine mammals (Arnot & Gobas, 2006). These toxic materials are spread in environment through different human activities. They pose adverse effects on air, water, food chain and humans. In United States, over the last two decades there has been a continuous ...

Introduction:

Nanobiotechnology serves as an imperative technique in the development of clean, nontoxic, and eco-friendly procedures for the synthesis and congregation of metal NPs having the intrinsic ability to reduce metals by specific metabolic pathways. Silver nanoparticles are particularly interesting nanoscale systems due to the ease with which they can be synthesised and modified chemically. Synthesis of silver nanoparticles has been widely researched due to their interesting size and shape-dependent properties [26]. These novel properties can be tailored by controlling their size, shape, composition, structure and crystallinity. Due to their size features and advantages over available anti-microbial properties, chemical imaging ...

Abstract

Diabetes management using the diet model has been considered the best procedure for people diagnosed with ether type 1 or 2 diabetes. It important to mind your diet in order to avoid food related health risks (Nutrition at Center of Diabetes Management, 2013). Eating plans are not easy to keep, but are important in the management of diabetes. Scientific research has failed to provide the backing to the ancient assertion that, eating sugary foods causes the blood sugar to rise higher than starchy foods. However, carbohydrate management, alongside other matters is important in the management of diabetes. This paper ...

The function of golli-MBP is less understood than that of the classic MBP. However, golli-MBP is believed to play an important role in various physiological activities such as the regulation of calcium (Ca) homeostasis especially in oligodendrocytes (OLs) and in T-cells ( Paez et al., 2007). The latter authors investigated this particular property of golli-MBP using fluorescent protein clones, cell lines and imaging techniques. It was revealed that when overexpressed in OL cell lines (N19), the golli proteins activate the elaboration of processes and sheets which retract rapidly following a depolarization with high potassium ions (K+). Simultaneously, a substantial augmentation ...

The question of whether we should trust our sense comes to us from the ancient times. Since the beginning of philosophy and thought, humans wondered whether the world is the way they see and experience it. With the advancements in philosophy, such doubts even framed out in a separate field of thought. Many thinkers were very skeptical about the contrast between the world as we perceive it and the way it really is and what role do our senses play in the process of perception and understanding. Descartes and Hume are two of the most prominent philosophers whose views ...

Abstract

Can female participation in the labor force contribute to economic growth? Is there a causal relationship between female participation in the labor force and economic growth? This paper addresses these questions using the vector error correction model. For this study, an annual time series data for the period 1970 to 2012 for the United States has been used. The results show that there exists a co-integration between female participation and GDP per capita, which is a proxy measure for economic development. The result does not support a two-way causality between the variables. However, a causality running from GDP per ...

Overview

Public agencies have until recently not been engaging in succession planning. Succession planning is the process by which an organization plans for and replaces outgoing managers, executives and selected chief employees. Such employees initially held vital positions affecting the success of the organization, and preparing for succession is critical to the success of an organization in its present and future plans. The process of succession planning includes carrying out preparations of how the organization will select and recruit successors, the most effective way to handle changes between executives and how to build upon its successors (Todnem & Macleod, 2009).

Introduction

Electrophysiology is the study of the electrical nature of biological cells and tissues. It is the basis of several ophthalmological techniques that can provide information about the retinal function. Three distinct electrical potentials have been identified in retina viz. Early receptor potential (ERP), electroretinogram (ERG), and electrooculogram (EOG). ERP is generated by the photopigment molecules in the outer part of visual receptors. ERG extends from pigment epithelium to the inner nuclear layer. EOG is a function of pigment epithelium but also depends on outer and inner layers of the retina.
ERG arises in the retina after light stimulation and ...

The effects of bilingualism in a minority language on third language acquisition

Abstract
In the area of language acquisition, bilinguals differ from monolinguals in several ways. It is accepted that previous language knowledge is facilitative in developing proficiency in a new language and both the learner’s native and non-native languages can be sources of influence in acquiring a new language. Given the evidence that in some social situations knowledge of a second language is facilitative in learning a third, the paper investigates to what extent knowledge of a widely-spoken but non-official local language can be shown to be facilitative in this way. The students in this study are ...

Introduction

With the advent and increasing popularity of the internet, the social media is fast emerging as a viable platform for marketing by many organizations. This form of marketing that makes use of social media sites and networks is known as social media marketing. It is really gaining popularity among organizations despite its novelty. Social media marketing may be defined as a form of business activity which is done through various channels of social media networks. We argue that companies that are intent on making use of social media as a marketing tool need to have a social media marketing strategy plan. It is ...

Pitrik, 2013). On the other hand, in socio-cognitive teaching, teachers offer scenarios whereby the students enter into the kinds of social discourse situations and societies that they (students) would encounter outside the traditional classroom. For example, students connect to various contexts for social interaction through the internet. In these contexts, they (students) meet and interact with native English speakers (Strambi & Bouvet, 2003), which allow them (students) to learn the English culture, and therefore, learning the language becomes easier. Therefore, socio-cognitive teaching explains the role of social interaction in the creation of an environment to learn a language, learn about the ...
