Marvel Studio describes; a hero could be someone that changed the world; and a hero could also be a person who significantly affects individuals. Three persons, who influenced me a lot, are considered as my heroes: John Owen-Jones, Isaac Newton, and Albert Einstein. John Owen-Jones, a popular Musical singer, not only influences my singing style, but imperceptibly encourages me to think deeper towards Musicals as well, which leads me to demand some answers from him. Before viewing his records, I…

Title The original French title of this novel is “L’Etranger”, which led to several english translations that all accurately reflected a part of what the protagonist embodied in the novel. “The Foreigner” being one of the literal translations, appoints to Meursault being a foreigner to the land of Algeria as a Frenchman; “The Stranger” describes his mental isolation from fellow human beings and “The Outsider” is his ultimate detachment from the conventions of a humanistic society. Consequently,…

In 1959, metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) was invented by Dawon Kahng and Martin M. (John) Atalla at Bell Labs. Julius Edgar Lilienfeld had already patented the basic principle of this kind of transistor in 1925. But later the Bell Labs edition was allocated the name bipolar junction transistor, or merely junction transistor, and design of Lilienfeld came to be identified as field effect transistor. Later, Jean Hoerni found that Silicon dioxide (SiO2) should be used to…

2008, eleven individuals were accused of the burglary of more than 40 million credit and plastic numbers from the following stores: T. J. Maxx, Marshall’s, Barnes and Noble, OfficeMax, and other significant retailers. Engineering by PC programmer Albert Gonzalez, the case study stays as one of the biggest cheats of MasterCard data ever. The Heartland case was like the TJX case. Somewhere around the year 2007 and 2009, the information break included the Heartland Payment Systems, the fifth…

Albert Einstein introduced his theory of General Relativity in 1915 (New Site). This theory includes a field equation for gravity, which consists of three terms: two tensors that represent space-time and the energy-momentum tensor. The energy momentum tensor represents the matter and energy in the universe which bends space-time to produce gravity (lecture 1). His equation is seen in Figure 1. Figure 1 On the right side of the equation is the matter and energy tensor and, on the left, are…

Examining The Road and the Writing Style through an Existentialist Lens In Cormac McCarthy’s The Road, we are introduced to two nameless people traveling through a land and time unfamiliar, all of which is described to the reader in a stylistically confusing way—the reader can’t help but ask, why? Why is it so often that reading the book becomes as arduous as the journey of the main characters? After reading a page and a half of dialogue without quotation marks or reminders of who is speaking,…

Tulane’s production of No Exit was a very fun experience. No Exit itself is a very interesting story, with some very good dialogue. The dialogue really has to be very good, as the entire play takes place in a single room, which leaves a very heavy burden upon the actors to not only remember lines, but to execute them. While no doubt I think Garcin, Inez and Estelle were played a little differently than how Satre intended, the parts were acted well, and I view the differences from the script as…

How should we live, in order to "live a good life"? For someone such as Albert Camus, author of The Myth of Sisyphus, living a good life would involve living freely. Camus believed strongly that we as humans should not hope for anything. Nothing is guaranteed to us; we could literally drop dead at any moment. Camus believed everyone should live in the moment. His essays suggest we should accept whatever our actions result in, no matter how bad it is; as long as we find happiness in the present,…

understanding the behavior of certain things, like wise, there are also the ones who consider that they are a better resembles than others, while miss concluding their own defects. In both, A Good Man Is Hard To Find, by Flannery O 'Connor, and Guest, by Albert Camus, illustrates that evil and good in an individual are not mutually exclusive. In A Good Man is Hard to Find, we encounter a variety of characters with different characteristic. There is two characters who really stand out, one of…

In Albert Camus’ The Outsider, the court weighs Meursault’s acte gratuit, or assertion of individual will and freedom, against the outrage of the entire community. Likewise, Franz Kafka’s The Trial also juxtaposes the agency of the individual with the strength of the justice system, and displays how the trial suppresses K.’s psychological freedom and agency. As both novels demonstrate how the law subordinates the individual to the community, justice therefore appeases the public rather than…
