In this paper, I will explain the event of a dog, Leo, hearing the sound of my pouring his dog-food into his food-bowl. I will explain this in an Aristotelian fashion using Aristotle's framework of explanatory schemata - the four causes - and by citing evidence from his theories of (a) hearing from De Anima II.8, (b) perception from De Anima II.12, and (c) potentiality and actuality from De Anima II.5. I will begin with an analysis of the event of Leo's hearing the pouring of the dog-food, and…

The God of Mercy and the Parable of the Prodigal Son Luke 15, 11-32 The Gospel of Luke introduces one of the most praised and extraordinary parables in the New Testament: The Parable of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15: 11-32). Of all the parables that Jesus narrated, the Prodigal Son is among the most heartbreaking and remembered teachings of Christ. This story only appears once in the Bible - it is only found in the Gospel of Luke. The parable, like many others of Jesus, is fundamentally rooted in…

In the novel The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, the American Dream influences direction and understanding. Nick Carraway, who throws himself into the midst a rich universe laden with eccentric, but hollow people, narrates the novel. Many characters of this universe have hardly thought of the American dream--possession has since birth surrounded them. However, to others, the universe seems new and they have not yet cultivated the norms of the culture that differs from their lesser origins…

modulus reflects the amount of energy dissipated during the strain process. The untreated ramie fiber composite has poor interfacial bonding and the surface treatments improve the enhance the interfacial bonding as seen in Fig. … The maximum heat dissipation occurs at the temperature where loss modulus is maximum indicating the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the system. The increase of Tg is associated with the decreased mobility of the matrix chains, which is an indication of improved…

Tiffiny Wolf Mr. James B. Harr III ENG 242-4171 12 October 2015 Women’s Place in Society during the Romantic Era During the Romantic period of British Literature, society began debating the proper role of women; not only were male poets and writers writing about their views of women’s changing role, women were increasingly prolific writers, writing about their own thoughts and experiences on the topic. Using language that was easy to understand, these women used their experiences to, in many…

Nuclear reprocessing does not eliminate the need for a repository, but also reduces the volume, along with that it also reduces the long term radiation hazard and heat dissipation capacity needed. It is possible to use waste heat in cogeneration applications such as district heating. Nuclear stations are generally not built in densely populated areas. Waste heat is more commonly used in industrial applications. So here we…

Aaron Ford Antonino English III 23 March 2017 Marine Biology Marine biology is a field in science that looks solely at the life of marine animals and plants. What is a marine biologist? A marine biologist is the study of oceans and the marine animals in the oceans that lve in our waters. They look at the organism behavior and interactions with the environment. The first research done on marine animals were by Aristotle 322bc. Although there has been marine biology before this time and…

motor's RPM, torque and the regenerative braking system. This braking system captures the kinetic energy usually lost through braking and transfers it back into the batteries. The generally regenerates approximately 185 kW of power. Aluminium heat dissipation fins and a rear-mounted ventilation port keep the batteries, computers and engine from…

The social hierarchy does not provide a way for those on the bottom to escape the bottom. They remain at the lowest of the low purely because there is profit to be made from the suffering of the inferior. The psychologist John C Turner examined the consistency of one’s identity in a group and its inability to change: “It is the awareness of the existence of categories which generates the in-group response, not necessarily past hostility nor objective conflict. Identity within a group is either…
