After about ten minutes of silence and full concentration, my senses of smell and hearing were very much stimulated. I could for instance perceive the smell of river water not at all like the tap water, but a strange freshness that I had not expected. I initially thought water was the same everywhere and that it was without any scent.

1. Evaluate each method of collecting the data. Which would you recommend and why?

The first method is simpler than the second one. It does not involve any complicated action from the respondents’ part. It uses elimination approach to reveal the best and the worst name according to the respondents’ perception. On the other hand, it seems to be oversimplified. The method cannot be used for developing product name because it does not involve product testing. I consider that a lot of attention should be paid to the process of developing product name because the name is one of the ...

Thus, if the growth project is an existing product in an existing market, the suggested growth strategy is market penetration, as shown in the upper left quadrant of the matrix.

Ultimately, though, he decides that he ...

Radical skepticism was just a tool in the rationalist philosophy of Rene Descartes, since he wanted to establish clear and distinct proof for the existence of minds and bodies, and found that ultimately he was unable to doubt his own existence. From this he derived the fundamental precept of Cogito ergo sum (I think therefore I exist) and from this went on to affirm the existence of God and the physical universe. No sane or rational person could seriously doubt their own existence or the reality of physical objects outside of themselves, no matter how flawed or imperfect human perceptions ...

The beach at night feels completely different from the beach during the daytime. It is the same place, yet the atmosphere is changed. Gone are the daytime crowds of families, couples, groups playing volleyball, strolling retirees, and seagulls raiding unattended food. The darkness of the beach at night envelops with a sense of peace; the absence of the crowds illuminates other aspects of the beach not noticed during the day, it gives a feeling of freedom, and a little fear in contrast to the dominant sense of peace.

Stepping through the dunes and onto the beach itself overwhelms with darkness, the brief ...

This is an age of “me, me;” the truth ...

Obsession is a powerful force, capable of driving human beings to achieve unimaginable things or to perpetrate acts they would never contemplate under normal circumstances. The extent to which obsession acts as a positive force in Perfume by Patrick Suskind and Thérèse Raquin by Emile Zola must be considered within the greater context of these two dark novels. Obsession underscores both plot and theme in these stories, in which the pursuit of reckless and amoral ambition can hardly be said to act for good. Obsession is a central theme in the novels Perfume and Thérèse Raquin. In ...
