Writing

Chinese writing is a lot different to Australian writing. When Chinese people write they write the like the shape of the thing, for example when they write mountain it looks like a mountain. Along time ago Chinese people wrote in turtle shells, bamboo sticks and now paper. In Australia we use to draw pictures on the wall. Paper was discovered 613 years ago. In those times people had white doves to send messages to other people. The reason why they used white doves was because they said that white doves where the smartest. A man called Jess rollor was the person who discovered paper. In China people had to write on turtle shells. It was a very hard because if you got one line or one letter wrong you would have to restart everything. In those days they didn’t have paper, ink or lead they only had rocks, turtle shells or nothing. In Australia we had rusty paper or we had to draw on the walls with rock paint. In the olden Australian days people made their own paint with bricks or rocks. Some people bought paint but in those days paint was really expensive. In China, after turtle shells were bamboo sticks. People would tie bamboo sticks together and write on them with rocks.

    One of the most misunderstood characters in Jean Rhys’s Wide Sargasso Sea is Christophine. Christophine was a wedding present to Antoinette’s mother, and she was a slave in their family since then. The reason that she comes off as so misunderstood is because it is never revealed explicitly in the text whether she is “good” or “bad”. Her involvement in the practice of obeah adds to the mysterious air about her in the novel. Obeah is a practice that is not an official religion, but there is a community who are involved in the practice that has “a wide variety and range of beliefs and practices related to the control or channeling of supernatural/spiritual forces” (Bilby 153). The practices are done “by particular individuals or groups for their own needs, or on behalf of clients who come for help” (Bilby 154). The practice has gone from having an acceptable reputation to a negative one. As the years went on in times of slavery, and especially during post-emancipation times, obeah gained more of a reputation as witchcraft or sorcery and it was said that it was used to bring harm to people (Bilby 153). The positive aspects of obeah were soon paid minimal attention, and the negative aspects and disapproving stereotypes were on the rise. The negativity was so prevalent and contagious that some West Indians who were involved in the practice began to have a pessimistic view as well (Bilby 153). This negative view followed obeah into the novel Wide Sargasso Sea. The practice was shown in a very negative light in the novel, especially through Christophine. Christophine is a representation of obeah in the novel. Throughout many points in the story, the fact that Christophine is involved with obeah practices is portrayed as the m...

    Steven Pinker is currently a psychology Professor at Harvard University, and contributes literary publications for The New York Times and The New Republic. Pinker delves into the controversial topic of nature vs. nurture in the article, “Why nature & nurture won’t go away”. In this work, Pinker criticizes the holistic interactionistic view, which states that personality is derived equally from nature and nurture. According to Pinker, they fail to attest for genetic variables that might contribute to personality differences. In contrast to holistic interactionist, Pinker argues that ones genes, culture, peer group, and chanced events contribute to individual personality differences. Steven Pinker exposes and debunks the holistic interactionist stand by effectively using logical evidence to devalue the conformists’ argument. He offers counter-examples, and walks us through the weaknesses in their arguments.

    His letters themselves were works of art. He used codes and symbols as easily as normal people print the alphabet. It was thought at the beginning that the letters were in Zodiac's own handwriting. Later on, the theory was that he was using samples of alphabet letters taken from other people. He then used a tracing and enlarging device to reprint the letters.

    Moderata Fonte’s Venetian ladies debated the worth of women while cavorting in their fictional garden in 1605; Tempel Anneke met her unhappy fate in the 1660s. The seemingly enlightened and forward-looking feminist attitudes articulated in Fonte's text were absent from the Brunswick courtroom where the allegations against Tempel Anneke eventually brought about her death. The two accounts illustrate the differences in the attitudes towards women between European states during the 17th century. The differences are technically religiously based, however, they deal with the differences of the specific regional factors of the areas discussed. The differences explain why the attitudes of Fonte’s ladies and the persecutors of Tempel coexisted in roughly the same era. Fonte's ladies are Italian Catholics, and Anna's neighbors are German Protestants, therefore, the ideals of women are varied based on religious experience. Additionally, the theory of reason of state that came about with the consolidation of authority consisted of centralization and secularism that subordinated the social role ...

    All DCM (Discovering a Christian Mind) classes at Calvin read Cornelius Plantinga Jr.’s Engaging God’s World, which discusses why it is valuable to aim to live Christ-like in today’s world. In his book Plantinga explains basic Christian beliefs and Reformed doctrines by highlighting God’s creation, the fall, and human redemption by Jesus’ death on a cross. The ideas of creation, fall, and redemption are displayed by the actions of male protagonists in three major plays: The Tempest by William Shakespeare, The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee Williams, and Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller.

    There is “approximately 3.6 million married U.S. Americans involved in a long distance relationship in 2006” and “4 to 4.5 million U.S. college couples in a long distance relationship (LDR)” (Hassenzahl, 2012,p. 2). There are many challenges that couples in long distance relationship face, for instance, lack of face- to- face communication, and physical closeness. Couples in LDRs are also prone to experiencing extreme idealization, for instance, experiencing false ideals due to distance and not spending physical and quality time in their relationship. Recent study found that when those in long-distance dating relationships moved to a proximal relationship, they were likely to terminate the relationship (Beebe et al, 2011, p. 286). In other words, the transition from LDRs to geographical close relationship (GCR) may come to rapid termination of the relationship. This may happen because couples who live far apart obtains fewer information about their significant other. However, high idealization leads to high satisfaction in LDRs which increase longevity. “Couples in long-distance premarital relationships had less communication but surprisingly greater satisfaction and higher expectation for the likelihood of marriage than those in proximal, or geographically close, relationships” (Beebe et al, 2011, p. 286). My personal interest to the topic is based on by experience. Before my husband and I were married; we had a long distance relationship. Both of us are in the Military and in different branches we were always miles apart. Despite the long distances between us, we still manage to make our love flourish through communication. Now that my husband and I are married and are now geographically close to each other, we are learning more...

    In Percy Shelley’s poem “Ozymandias” the story begins with the narrator explaining how he met a traveler from an “antique” land. This traveler explains how in the dessert he saw two legs of stone, and the face of a statue laying on the sand. The traveler describes how on the pedestal there were words left behind by the king boasting to anybody who sees his statue to take a good look at his kingdom, and fear how powerful he is. However around the broken statue there was nothing but the loneliness of the barren dessert. The overall theme portrayed in this poem is that no matter how great or long lasting something is built to last, eventually it will be destroyed with time. The author shows this through the poem by carefully using imagery, and diction to illustrate that of this kingdom all that is left behind is this statue; that one day will also disappear into the dessert. I will be going through this poem line by line in order to explain what I believe this poem to mean, and how each line contributes to the overall message of the poem.

    American Airlines utilizes a hub-and-spoke system to better serve the small communities. Many flights that are offered through American would require a connection through one of their hubs. American has placed it footprint in 5 great locations, John F. Kennedy, Chicago O’Hare, Dallas/Fort Worth, Los Angeles, and Miami International, to offer the best viable solution to any one traveler’s needs (Horton, 2013). By using the hub-and-spoke system, American can offer an exponential amount of locations to travel to for a reduce cost (Combs, 2003). Although this may save time and money for the consumer as well as the business, the negative aspect would be the extended duration in travel for the customer.

  • Ancient Chinese Civilization

    1142 Words  | 3 Pages

    China was one of the few countries in the world that grew with minimal interference from its outside neighbors. The reason for this is due to China’s geography. One of the most important and unique items to come from this isolation is China’s writing system. China retained its logographic writing system since there were no other civilizations that came in and changed the way the Chinese wrote during its advancement. China’s writing system shaped many aspects of everyday life. Their writing system was used in literature, philosophy, politics, and everyday social workings. The first Chinese dynasty to rule was the Shang dynasty (ca. 1500-ca. 1050 B.C.E.) The Shang dynasty was the first dynasty to have chariots, writing, metalworking, and standing cities. During the Shang dynasty the Rulers were Kings that were military chieftains. During this period warfare was revolutionary, because of the use of bronze in warfare (ca 1200B.C.E.)Some of the reasons for the Shang dynasty to go to war were for riches, slaves, to quell a rebellion, and to appease gods. Most of the cities during this time were not large urban centers. Most people lived in villages. The Shang kings ruled from large cities. The best known and excavated city that is known to have housed Shang kings is the settlement of Anyang. The dynasty that overthrew the Shang dynasty was the Zhou dynasty (ca1050-256 B.C.E). Before the Zhou overthrew the Sha...

  • Cellular Phones: The Importance Of Communication In The Army

    1080 Words  | 3 Pages

    Cellular phones can contribute a lot to our modern lives. It has made things very convenient by letting people communicate with others around the world almost instantaneously. One of the most used functions on the cell phone is not the phone, but the SMS text messaging. Why wouldn’t anyone want the ability to communicate instantaneously? With the use of this technology comes a different method of accountability. This is taking responsibility for that which falls under your domain. This is important when communicating with a supervisor. When an SMS message is received, it is professional courtesy to respond as soon as possible. That notwithstanding, SMS messaging is an unreliable technology with an average 1%-5% error or deliverability rate. It is not only irrational but also malicious to attribute more credit than is reasonably expected to this feeble technology. When this happens the only expectation is reprisal. Reprisal is a federal offense, defined in 10 U.S.C. §1034 and DoD Directive 7050.06. by sections:
