Apple thrives on its ability to produce its own “operating system, hardware, application software, and services to provide its customers new products and solutions with superior ease-of-use, seamless integration, and innovative industrial design.” (Annual Report, page 1) Herein lies Apple’s competitive advantage, their ability to produce products that seem attractive and easy to use for the consumer. Another core competence instrumental to Apple’s competitive advantage is the effectiveness of…

To what extent is animal captivity immoral? Animals that live under human care are in captivity. Captivity can be used as a generalizing term to describe the keeping of either domesticated animals (livestock and pets) or wild animals. This may include, for example, farms, private homes, zoos and laboratories. Animals are shipped to and from different locations all over the world, and held in captivity for the rest of their lives for our viewing pleasure. We can ask: is this practice and…

(Mullin 2015: 210) also emphasize the fact that humans use non humans as a form of asset or wealth , either for food or to be domesticated. Martel (Martel 2001: 13-25) narrated PI’s experience (in the zoo) of seeing the non humans being closed up in enclosures and even caged up. Sometimes, there were even coincidences of public abusing those non humans causing them to suffer or be hurt. This is how humans control the non humans. In Pandian’s reading, he mentioned that the British and the Mughal…

For millennia, humans and animals alike have hunted for prey animals. However, with the recent advances in the world, hunting is not necessary. Domesticated animals such as cows and pigs are herded to supply the populous with a sustainable meat supply. Hunting still remains, and so do domesticated slaughterhouses, so which is more ethical? Hunting, although seeming less ethical, is actually better than slaughterhouses, as the hunter chooses how he kills the animal, and gets closer to nature, and…

This class has made me question everything we have learned as zookeepers/animal lovers, honestly. I started thinking about how we breed animals, how we house them, and how we feed and clean them. The biggest change I have made personally is to not clean the entire ferret cage in one day. Since it is 4 stories, I now clean 2 stories at a time. I noticed that their behavior towards the clean section is different and they spend less time in it compared to the section that I did not clean. This…

illustrates tossing aside the historical roles of women, and exemplifying the fact that--in a tech industry largely dominated by male leadership--women are becoming more and more prominent in the world technology market. The girls are surrounded by enclosures: walls, windows, and fences (seen through the window), but not in their virtual realities. Their creativity and potential are limited by these blockades. In their virtual reality computer games, they are God-like characters with exponential…

At first glance, the poem Anorexic written by Eavan Boland, may seem to be just a piece of literary work but with further exploration you can begin to understand the author's genuine message. Through her use of barbarous language, Boland exposes how tough it can be to be a confident and independant women through society's standards. The speaker feels vulnerable and uncomfortable with the world around her resulting in a state of destruction to the source of her problems. The poem starts with a…

the burning bodies they scooped and poured again so everyone could burn better” (Spiegelman II.2.62). Regarded as possessive of inferiority from a racial standpoint, each Jewish person gets inhumane treatment. The Jewish people get placed inside enclosures and/or vehicles designed for animal holding: “We lay on top of the other, [as] matches, [as] herrings. I pushed to a corner…to [avoid getting] crushed…High up I saw a few hooks to chain up…the animals” (Spiegelman…

group of stresses: “bright images”, “ravaged plain”, or “shot boy”, “white sheet”, “own blood” “saw blood” and “brave still, trying” “stop himself” “white girl waiting” and in the third stanza still more in lines 2,6, 7,8,10, 11 which make for an emphasis and pulsation beyond that of ordinary speech. Word or phrase repetition together with sound repetition also heightens the rhythmic quality, while the run of stressed syllables in “All day/ I have thought” gives weight, the heavy pace of her…

In the case of Udham Singh Nagar the attempt is to identify whether as said by Jonathan Fox, the state does two contradictory tasks, to facilitate capital accumulation with least amount of political legitimacy. With these changes in land ownership by accumulation there has been sharp rise in changes in land uses, directly affecting the socio-economic relationships and political interests in the area. Emerging from the changes are questions on the strategic framework on policy, land regulation,…
