The lion is a member of the cat family. However, this animal is significantly different because more often than not, it does not display the typical characteristics of the cat family members. One of the least typical traits of the cat family members is sociality. This trait is however one of the most exciting aspects of the life of a lion. In fact, this aspect cannot be overemphasized seeing that most of the other cats are not social at all. The aim of this presentation is to explore this exciting aspect, that is the social behavior and structure of lions, in ...

The narrator of the story, The Black Cat is an insane man. There is a horde of evidence throughout the story to prove this assertion. The actions, the hallucinations and the uncontrollable fits of rage all prove that the narrator is insane.

The narrator has a divided self or consciousness. There are several issues he does not see about himself. First he does not realize that he is explaining more about his unstable mind and uncontrollable fits of anger and less about the influence of alcohol in his life. The narrator wants to “place before the world, succinctly, plainly a series ...

With a Gin Vermouth in her hand, Harper sat down at the kitchen table. She took a sip, and licked the rim of the glass, eyeing the two Valium pills on the table. The lingering aftertaste of love-making was soon washed away, as she heard a voice behind her. “Not letting go deforms you, and the truth sets us free. Joe is gone, Harper. You should be gone, too.” She recognized the voice being her own, she recognized the thought being a product of her own mind. “I am crazy,” she thought and a tear came flickering down her face. “I am crazy, ...

Our family favored pets ever since I was little: we had at least one animal in our apartment at a time. However, there was that one pet, that one cat that was different from every other living thing that shared a life with us at our home. Its name was Tom, he was a simple domestic cat, a gray one. He was an extremely beautiful and smart cat. We grew up together; he was 5 months old when he first entered the threshold of our door. I got him from a friend whose female cat has given birth to six kittens. There it ...

Cats maintain a certain level of aloofness, especially when they stare with their piercing green eyes. Their movements are lithe and fluid and most often, without a sound. They have distinct features that make them look like cute home companions. Typically, cats have a round-shape face, while others are triangular. With ears pointed and erect, the ears are naturally larger at the base and pointed towards the tips. Apart from being decorative, their ears are also functional because they can hear extremely high and low frequency sounds. Cats have eyes that resemble human eyes in shape.

“A Good Man is Hard to Find”

Traditional convention suffered a string of devastating shocks in the first half of the twentieth century. A world war, a Great Depression, and another world war shattered many people’s faith in traditional institutions. A propos, Flannery O’Connor dispenses with the conventional tropes of hero and villain in “A Good Man is Hard to Find.” She gives the reader a villain who is not evil and a hero who is not good. Despite the third-person narration, this is the Grandmother’s story. The narrator presents her thoughts and feelings, but the other characters exhibit no evidence of inner life. They speak ...

Definition of learning

We use the term 'learning' the whole time in our day-to-day life. But do we actually know the actual meaning of this word and its real significance? Almost everything that people do, any action they take is the consequence and result of preceding learning and experience yet. On the other hand, for some people learning is still associated exceptionally with the educational process. Such idea of the concept of learning is not quite correct. Throughout our lives learn a disorderly variety of skills. For instance, as infants we learn to eat, to draw attention to ourselves, to crawl, to make ...

Introduction

It is undisputed that there are problems and risks of having stray cats and dogs in the community. Stray animals affects public health, economy, environment and their own health as well.

The issues concerning strays can be ultimately understood by identifying a unique definition of a stray animal. The classification of whether an animal is stray helps the community which animals need attention, provides a universal definition, and identify ...

The concept of disaster bonds: Overview of catastrophe bonds

Capital markets experience a number of risks that cause investors huge sums of cash. Catastrophe bonds (cat bonds) are a form of principal-at-risk debt securities issued by insurance companies to investors that allow direct transfer of low-frequency, high-sensitivity risk to capital markets. Traditionally, debt securities only allowed insurance companies to repay full principal amount upon maturity of the bond. The introduction of catastrophe bonds solved this situation. Upon the occurrence of one or more catastrophe event, the outstanding principal of the insured reduces. Examples of catastrophe events covered by this bond include natural disasters (earthquakes, hurricane), deaths caused by an outbreak ...

Literary Comparison

Introduction Edgar Allan Poe ‘s poems are best known for their deep meaning and distinct presentation of particular elements that make up the overall concept of what reality is all about. In a way, the creative process of thinking that Poe has basically imposed in most of his works transcends a distinct pillar of his being, as if sharing not only his thoughts but his individuality to his readers. Practically, this approach has made Poe’s poems to be among the most read and most analyzed ones. Among the themes used by Poe in presenting his poems to the public ...

When deciding to adopt a pet, a person usually needs to consider his or her preferences, as well as the possible changes in the lifestyle. While many people know whether they like cats or dogs more and are, thus, guided by this factor in their decision, there are also those, who do not have a preference, and this is the time when such people need to consider cons and pros of owning one or another.

“Cat in the Rain” by Ernest Hemingway

The title of the story “Cat in the Rain” by Ernest Hemingway carries an inner meaning besides its literal meaning of cat in the rain. Hemingway uses iceberg theory to fix a title for his story. The title has a meaning outwardly and has a deep meaning behind it. Even though, the story says the incident when a cat caught in the rain, the protagonist of the story indirectly refers to the title by confronting the element of confinement that resembles the cat. Thus, the title signifies nothing but the American Woman. “Cat in the Rain has two points of view: full omniscient ...

Question being investigated

This study was aimed at testing the hypothesis that there is no close-paralleling of the raised rate of metabolism arising from contraction of muscles by hyperpnea, and thus arterial 02, pH, and C02 do not remain comparatively constant all through most of the moderate exercise range (Carli, et al., 1967). The alternative hypothesis was that a feed-forward mechanism is responsible for hyperpnea.

Importance of the question/publication

There is still uncertainty on the mechanism resulting in raised ventilation or hyperpnea, in the course of an exercise in spite of over a century of research, hypothesis, as well as debate. Due to the close link ...

"Every morning was a cheerful invitation to make my life of equal simplicity, and I may say innocence, with Nature herself. I have been as sincere a worshipper of Aurora as the Greeks. I got up early and bathed in the pond; that was a religious exercise, and one of the best things which I did. They say that characters were engraven on the bathing tub of King Tching-thang to this effect: "Renew thyself completely each day; do it again, and again, and forever again." I can understand that. Morning brings back the heroic ages. I was as much affected by the ...

There are quite a number of actions in the play, A Midsummer Night’s Dream by William Shakespeare that makes the characters look foolish.

Hermia and Helena do so in their own free will but Titania does so because of the spell that she was put under, Demetrius and Lysander ore epitomes of foolish love when they keep playing around with these women.

An argument to support a claim that Edgar Allen Poe uses a repertoire of strategies to create suspense in the Raven, The Black Cat, and the Tell Tale Heart. Edgar Allen Poe is a master in creating tension and this is present in several of his stories among which one may count The Raven, The Black Cat and the Tell Tale Heart. Tension is an important part of Poe’s strategy since we never seem to know what is coming next and this culminates in a frenetic sense of energy and momentum in the story. Poe relies on a number of techniques in ...

One of the most celebrated works of the American composer George Gershwin is entitled Rhapsody in Blue, which features a notable crossover between the sounds of a classical piano piece and Jazz masterpiece. It is not first the time that such musical piece grazed the concert halls and the ears of critiques, but what sets Gershwin’s piece apart from genre is its unique sound, which conveys specific mood. Rhapsody in Blue encompasses happy trails on a gloomy avenue kind of mood like riding down the yellow brick road in a wicked forest. The piece sustains the same mood throughout until the end, ...

Describe a test to determine whether the gene is dominant or recessive.

Gregory Mendel is well known scientist who discovered existing patterns in traits inheritance passed from an organism to its offspring. Gregory’s findings led to the establishment of Mendel laws. These laws include; the law of dominance, isolation and Independent assortment. In the case of Curly-eared Cat, mutant gene can either be recessive or dominant.

Introduction Edgar Allan Poe is a narrator who we can describe as nervous but not mad. What he thinks is that when we read his two outstanding pieces of work, we probably think that he is insane but this is not true. What we perhaps call his madness fails to be his madness but a sense of hearing acute in him. In addition, Edgar believes that the quick, low dull sound- much like a sound made by the watch enveloped in cotton is actually the song of the beating heart of an old man. Those believes, which the narrator has are ...

After all the enlightenment and modernization that has actually taken place in the modern world, the superstitious beliefs still exist in our societies. Each individual to some extent believe in these absurd superstitious beliefs. Cultural superstition is therefore a belief in the supernatural causality (Owens-Meyerson 17).

In Charles Perrault's Master Cat, or Puss in Boots, the titular cat is shown to be able to deceive many others in his journey in order to get him and his poor master ahead in life. The moral of the story is meant to be that self-reliance is good, but the poor miller relies more and more on the cat's instructions and deceit to get what he wants. He gets everything handed to him on a silver platter, instead of actually working within his means and dealing with his situation himself. There are three things that can easily be pointed ...

I hate cats. With all my furry being, I hate cats. They don’t have anything on dogs – dogs run, and jump, and play, and do all the things that make their masters smile and laugh. Those who own dogs know that they are loved; our wagging tails, our bright, begging eyes, our infectious running are hugs tips that we enjoy their company right back. We love our masters, and they love us right back.

But cats? Cats couldn’t care less. They seem to specialize in the fine art of exhibiting boredom. All they do is sit around ...

When I was a child, my relationship to animals was very close. The neighborhood children and I often included family pets in our games as if they were one of us. Dogs enjoy many of the same games that children spend their days playing. They enjoy frisbee, hide-and-seek, tag, and imaginary adventures of exploration. In a few cases they patiently submitted to being dressed up in baby clothes and became part of the family when we played house. Even though we were the “owners” of these dogs, we never thought of ourselves that way. To us, they were equal members of ...

Mind Map for the differences between humans and cats

Humans and cats are different in several ways. The variance surfaces in various ways. They differ in their vision, dentitions, organs and the brain system. Firstly, humans and cats differ in the brain systems. The cats’ whiskers are a crucial part of their sensory mechanism.

These whiskers are scanning systems to detect items before the cats can touch them. Slight air movements cause vibrations of the whiskers, which send significant ...

The Neighbour’s Perspective

I stepped out that morning and embraced the day. It was sunny and the heat beat down upon my face like water from a shower head. I had always liked days like this as I usually felt more relaxed and calm which is something of a rarity for me. I’ve never understood people who dislike the summer; it’s a beautiful time of year: children playing and laughing; women in beautiful, floating dresses; and lush, green trees encased in healthy, lustrous leaves and bright flowers. Even the greyest of concrete structures seems to sparkle in the sunlight and I find it ...

The cat scratches my extended hand when I bend down to check for a tag on the

collar. The claws are razor sharp and don’t draw blood, but I feel the sting. No tag.

Hmmm. I don’t recognize the cat who has been hanging around our five-acre property for

about two weeks, but cats come and go in this area because of living off a busy highway,

if you know what I mean. She is all black with long white whiskers, the longest I have

ever seen on a cat. I can hear her rumbling purr from where I stand over her. It is

intoxicating! I miss having a cat around since our big orange tabby Barney ...

In this exercise, I was required to find a system that would ensure a safe passage of three animals across a river. These animals were a cat, a dog and a mouse. The catch was that the raft could only transport the man and just one animal for each trip time across the river. The problem was that if the cat and dog were left alone on the river bank, the dog would eat the cat. Similarly, if the cat was left alone with the mouse on the river bank, the cat would eat the mouse. This called for a coming up with a way to safely ...

A myth refers to a legendary or traditional story regarding a hero, being or event (Armstrong 2). Myths, however, lack a basis of proof or a natural explanation to the topics they represent. These are, especially, the ones that talk about demigods, deities or tend to explain some rite, practice or a phenomenon of nature. Myths are traditional, but there is no doubt that they still have currency. What the history of myths, folklore, legends, and fables reveals is that they are frequently used to explain something that is not true, but complex and powerful in today’s world. Today the name "myth" ...

Arguably, in the past decades researchers have established program modes and intervention strategies that will help in promoting social development, as well as reducing juvenile delinquent behaviors.

Perhaps, it costs the city a lot of dollars to prosecute, arrest, treat and incarcerate juvenile offenders. Hence, the use of delinquency-prevention programs saves a lot of taxpayers’ money, which is ...
