Starbucks Is Calling For YOU Expresso. Cappuccino. Frappuccino. Billions of choices, filled with sugar, spice, and just about anything you could dream of. So how did they do it? There’s a lot more to this company than most of us care to understand. However, if you dig a little deeper, all the pieces will come together. Like a siren calling you to crash, your coffee will do just the same. It all started in Seattle, Starbucks wanted to capture that attention of all the business the seaports brought. So, the company looked for an appeal, something nautical. They stumbled across a sixteenth century two-tailed mermaid, it was love at first site. From that day forward, the mysterious mermaid would be the face of a company that everyone would come to know. Surprisingly, the Starbucks webpage did not touch much on what exactly a siren was. Sirens were mermaid-like creatures with beautiful voices and looks that were just as breathtaking. They would lure sailors towards sharp rocks, by singing to the ships. The most familiar story of sirens comes from The Odyssey, where Athena, goddess of reason, helps steer Odysseus and his crew away from a fatal death. Odysseus had a fair warning before coming near the sirens near the island of Circe’s. He plugged his crew’s ears with beeswax.

These two authors will go on to tell you that Helen is a beautiful lady that is admired and loved or if she is a danger to all and causes disorder all around.

Ancient sources vary as to the parentage of Hecuba.[2] According to Homer, Hecuba was the daughter of King Dymas of Phrygia,[3] but Euripides[4] and Virgil[5] write of her as the daughter of the Thracian king Cisseus. The mythographers Pseudo-Apollodorus and Hyginus leave open the question which of the two was her father, with Pseudo-Apollodorus adding a third alternate option: Hecuba's parents could as well be the river god Sangarius and Metope.[6][7] Some versions from non-extant works are…

He feels that people do not understand him and Annabel because they are convinced that they are only children and it is not real love. In Poe’s “To Helen”, the speaker’s constant reference to Greek Mythology develops his obsession towards it. Helen is a direct allusion to the Trojan War. The fact that Poe decided to name the poem Helen shows his obsession with Greek…
