Janet Byron Anderson, the author of The Vocabula Review, discusses the merits and demerits of using a semi-colon in literature. In her article, The Enigmatic Semicolon, Anderson starts by describing the fascination human beings have over hybrid beasts and mythology. She uses the mermaid, a sensuous woman with muscular fish resemblance below. According to myth, the mermaid lures sailors with lovely songs, which makes them forget what they are doing and jump off the deck only to drown. Similarly, the semicolon tends to have comparable psychological influence, whereby a writer feels the urge to use it but fears that ...

While the films in the Batman cycle speak powerfully for themselves, the reception of the films – and the resulting commentary – go a long way toward showing the different culture in which the movies were made, and which they reflect.

A review from the time (Variety Staff) indicated that the film is “packed with action, clever sight gags, interesting complications and goes all out on bat with batmania” (Variety Staff, web). The reviewers also noticed that the “script retrieves every trick from the ...

The History of Whistleblowing

Whistleblowing is a significant accountability tool in today’s corporate world. The practice is traceable to as early as the eighth century. However, in essence, it truly came into light when the Lincoln administration adopted the first ever whistleblowing law in 1863. Dubbed the Federal False Claims Act, the law outlawed the use of false statements in the name of blowing the whistle against an organization. In 1989, the Bush administration adopted the Whistleblowers Protection Act (1989). This law acted as a form of protection to federal whistleblowers who expose the government’s wasteful and fraudulent practices (Barnett, 1992). ...

In the Victorian period The Woman Question was a widely discussed topic, and engaged many Victorians, both male and female. The ideal woman of that age was associated with tenderness, understanding, innocence, domestic affection and submissiveness. The woman had to maintain the status and integrity of her husband, being always the devoted and pleasing angel in the house. Coventry Patmore supported the idea that women should be extremely pure and selfless in his popular, best-selling long poem “The Angel in the House” (1854). A woman that failed at such responsibilities was labelled either mad or hysterical. During the Victorian ...

It is common knowledge that every well-educated person should know, understand and appreciate music. However, no matter how well aware of various composers and genres people might be, many of us find it difficult to feel it. There are numerous examples of musicians who can technically perform a piece, but when you listen to them playing, you realize that you might as well listen to a robot. Only the emotion behind the melody gives music a truly human feel and makes it a universal human language that will be understood all over the world. Thus, it is extremely important ...

Abstract

This paper will investigate whether or not artificial artificial affect obesity. Everything that is sweeten with sugar can now be sweetened with an artificial sweetener; and for pennies morewe can have all the pleasures of sweet with half the calories; and so we slip onto ignorant bliss unaware that we might be adding calories instead of taking off calories,

As Americans we have a phobia of hard work, so rather than reading the label on food we look for the word “diet.” Recent studies have shown that we might be putting on more weight with fewer calories from sugar. ...

The song, ‘Scream’, which Michael Jackson performed, featuring his sister, Janet, plays on the idea of someone being so bored or frustrated that they want to scream. The video carries this idea on by showing the two in a futuristic setting which draws on dystopian traditions to explain the pair’s boredom. The song itself mirrors the visual presentation of the accompanying video through its use of electronically-altered screams and shouting. The song and its video reflect Michael Jackson’s persona through its relation to teenage and childish boredom where children are literally so bored that they scream and ...

Currently, one of the most significant controversies in American politics has to do with the discussion of the 2013 budget. The conservative party, the Republicans, wants to cut spending and, where possible, cut taxes, which they say will boost the economy.

The liberal party, the Democrats, wants to raise taxes to narrow the government debt while making more limited spending changes, and have not yet addressed the benefit programs. The Republican budget leader is ...

In the modern world, several activists have called upon different stakeholders to ensure equality is maintained between the two genders. A lot of caution is taken in most sectors to ensure that both genders are presented with equal opportunities in any endeavor. This is very different from what the practice was some years back. Traditionally, men were considered to be superior to women. Such discrimination saw women reduced to objects whose purpose was to ensure men lived happily. To overcome these traditional myths, women have struggled hard to air their views. One of the ways they have aired their ...

The Ethics for Business Owners in Hiring Illegal Immigrants

Introduction There is a great deal of debate concerning the hiring of illegal immigrants by United States businesses. Those against the hiring of illegal immigrants argue that these immigrants are taking jobs away from American workers. In this country, there are actually strong penalties for hiring undocumented or illegal workers because the hiring of illegal immigrants violates both federal and state law. Although it is illegal to hire illegal immigrants, there are these that consider it in terms of an ethical issue for businesses. So, what is ethics? “There is a difference between ethics and law. The law summarizes what ...

Health marriages are good for couples’ mental and physical health. Not leaving out children, health marriage is good for children too. Growing up in a health marriage and family helps children grow happily and avoid educational, social, physical and mental problems. However, survey findings show that about 40 to 50 percent of married couples in the United States divorce. Lacks of a happy family lead to emergence of a problem. This is clearly elicited in Janet’s case. She just completed her fourth divorce. I believe many people think that Janet is out of her mind already and that she is immoral. ...

The 16th century witnessed the reformation in religion and caused a lot of havoc. In that century, Christianity rose to be one of the most barbaric religions of the time.

People like Martin Luther and John Calvin revolted against the Catholic Church that was, by then, in the front row for intolerance. They started the protestant denomination that saw a rise of war between the two religious affiliations. The protestant church ...

Carole Vance’s article, “Social Construction Theory: Problems in the History of Sexuality,” explains how the social construction theory can be used to help understand LBGTQ+ identities. As discussed previously, essentialism assumes that all things, at the essence, are the same or share a similar experience. However, this does not take culture into consideration, and just how far humans are constructed socially. Vance explains that the LBGTQ+ community would benefit from identifying as a socially constructed group, because assuming that sexuality is finite or natural is an essentialist argument that completely undermines people who are sexually fluid and rejects the idea ...

Total return refers to all the returns from investments. These include capital gains, interest, distribution, and dividends (Colleen M. Jaconetti, Francis M. Kinniry, and Christopher B. Philips, 2012. P. 13). Therefore, the total shareholder returns is the actual measure of the total earning from an investment. The total share returns may offer insights on the current returns, but proves to be more useful if used over a long-term period (Janet Tavakoli, n.d). It can be used to compare the rate of returns in two successive periods. The total returns offer the best single indicator on returns. For example, assuming ...

1. Describe the concepts of territoriality, privacy, and personal space. The traditional explanation of territoriality was emphasized on the marking off and protection of a physical border line from invasion by those of similar kind.
