persist in the poem, with Achilles’ representation in the song of the Parcae, as his life is highly defined by visual images. The poem then closes with another eye related image, “lumine claro” (408). Rees argues that in saying that the “gods no longer touch the ‘clear light’ of day” (82), Catullus shows how light and sight cannot be trusted. I think that the untrustworthiness of sight is shown with the story of Ariadne and Aegeus’ visions, but I think Catullus uses too much visual imagery in…

For many people, the best part of waking up is knowing a fresh cup of coffee with a shot of espresso will be there to help get them going. For those people who may not have received a full night 's rest, a shot of espresso will really help to alert the body and get it going for the day. After heading out the door, the first stop is usually the coffeehouse for a piping hot cup of coffee, a smooth latte or a cappuccino with swirls of espresso inside! But, what about the times when the clock is…

Women are now represented in both film and television as complex, multi-faceted characters who exist independently of their romantic relationships and home lives. In an age where women are fighting desperately to keep these robust roles available to women and pushing for even more diverse representation, how does a…

Here’s some Amontillado Irony is the best way to go about revenge in Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Cask of Amontillado”, Montresor decides to take Fortunato’s life as revenge for a serious insult. After all the antagonist’s family motto is “Nemo me impune lacessit” (Poe530), which means no man attacks me with impunity.

practitioner or the teacher adjusts/break down tasks, introduce small chunks of reading, and gradually progress into more complex, more meaningful activities. One way to achieve this goal is by using the Orton-Gillingham Approach in the classroom. It is a multi-sensory strategy used to strengthen decoding through the sound/letter(s) association, spelling rules, and sight word memorization. Since most teaching techniques are done using either visual or auditory the child 's sight is used in…

Power Point Script With the variety of topics covered in the curriculum over the last year, there was one topic that stood out to me the most, electricity. There was something very curiosity inducing about the fundamental forces that enables electricity to do wonders in the world. Outside of the realm of the studied curriculum, there is a whole chapter on the nature of induced forces in magnetic fields. This struck great interest and lead to further research. In the 1830’s, an English…

secular, to the extent that some consider it to be a-religious, where fewer people are attending church and collective worship; therefore religion is no longer influential enough to reinforce the collective consciousness. Bellah argued that in modern multi-faith society, the bonding function is performed by civil religion. For example, in the US they have Americanism, which sacralises the American way of life. Religious images and phrases (E.g ‘God save America’) are used to promote and…

success. Even as late as 2007, Nokia had more than fifty per cent of all the profits in the mobile-phone industry and most of those profits were not coming from smartphones. Allocating majority of resources into a high-end, low-volume business of touch-screen smartphone business (as in 2007) would have been deemed highly risky. Nokia’s failure was a result of its institutional reluctance of transition process in the smartphone…
