In a normal society, the tendency of people to identify themselves with a certain class is common. These classes are based on factors such as social status, income Continue reading...

Tennessee Williams’ play Orpheus Descending is a modern retelling of the well known Greek legend of Orpheus, who goes deep into the Underworld for his beloved Eurydice, to save her from the clutches of death. In the same manner, Williams portrays characters in a conventional Southern community, marred by issues such as conformity to traditionalism, stubbornly refusing to acknowledge and respect those who are different. Thus, these outcasts who are of an unacceptable sexual, religious or racial affiliation are treated as lepers, not even knowing why they are unworthy of basic human rights. All of this forces them to Continue reading...

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 Continue reading...

Abstract

In “The Death of the Author,” structuralist thinker Roland Barthes suggested the notion of the author as a distinct identity in the creation and interpretation of a text was a thing of the past. Instead, he preferred the use of the word “scriptor” to refer to the person writing or typing a work for the first time. The ideas in the scriptor's mind would have to travel through his or her semiotic filters to make it to the paper – those filters take the ideas and shape them – for example, the inspiration Continue reading...

Introduction

As myriad of changes continue being experienced in the health sector, several challenges prevent effective implementation of healthcare services. These challenges include limitation in healthcare services, inefficient skills, unskilled personnel, poverty and huge gap between the number of skilled healthcare providers and number of patients seeking services. These problems further intensify in rural areas whereby the distance between patients and healthcare facilities prevent timely access to healthcare. This explains why several federal policies target problems facing the rural poor. Studies further show that more than 15 percent of healthcare beneficiaries reside in rural areas (Thrall, 2012). These patients depend Continue reading...

Regional Stability, Global Security: Finding a Workable Answer to Iran’s Nuclear Threat
In the modern world, “rogue” states have become adept at wielding the threat of nuclear weaponry in the global political arena and wringing concessions from developed nations that have, at best, an imprecise knowledge of whether, and at what stage of development, nations like North Korea and Iran possess nuclear capability. It is a matter of intense interest among America’s intelligence and diplomatic communities to determine whether the persistently belligerent regime in Iran seeks political leverage against Israel and the United Continue reading...
