Obscenity

disregarding his superiors’ orders, which eventually caused Jobs to lose his position at Apple corporation. Over the course of the years, with the lack of innovation and without the popular icon of Steve Jobs, this further led to Apple’s descent into obscenity. Eventually this caused Apple to rehire Steve Jobs, but fortunately for them, they come up with a plan to not only restore their names, but to bring back the trust of their consumers. Skipping ahead to 1998, Steve Jobs then propose to his…

Political scientist Harry Clor proposed an “ideal system of legal control… wise men would solemnly weight three considerations: the moral evils of obscenity, the virtues of art, and the requirements of public consensus in a regime of rational liberty. Each consideration would be given its full weight in the light of the common good.” But as we all already know, a consensus this equal in constitutional…

Advertising is used to persuade spectators into becoming buyers. Logical fallacies are often used in advertising to appeal towards emotions or impression instead of facts. One example of a logical fallacy used in advertising is hasty conclusions. A hasty conclusion is made when a generalization is made before enough specific items have been examined. For example, in 2012, Honey Nut Cheerios launched an ad campaign claiming to be “America’s Favorite Cereal.” America consists of over three hundred…

One small part of the puzzle missing from Gorman’s linking script is that the printer, not just the publisher, could be prosecuted for undertaking to print obscenity. In The Dubliners Dilemma the printer’s baulking seems to suggest a moral imperative, which is misleading. This quibble, however, does not detract from the sustained level of good editorial choices made to the relevant texts or from an animated and…

fact that it first existed and then deciding that any form of sexually explicit material was in violation and that obscenity would need to have a boundary. Although this decision decided to suppress porn and all that it stood for, its step into the media created an interest in the American people and help grow the tolerant attitude towards issues dealing with sex and marriage (“Obscenity”) that we now know today. It was not until the 1980’s and 1990’s that the debate between whether or not porn…

From the moment I was born, any hope of having a status higher than “low-blooded wretch” was doomed. Being a drow isn’t exactly an ideal situation and it certainly doesn’t win you points with people like being a high elf would. The people shout obscenities at you, accusing you of being a demon-worshipping miscreant bent on killing and enslaving surface-dwellers, sometimes threatening to kill you when you’ve done nothing but breathe in their vicinity. My curiosity towards this attitude often led…

The concept of bodily needs and sexual fulfilment is represented vis-a-vis marriage but a new power dynamics emerges between the mistress and her maid. Rabbo seems to exercise, albeit subtly some sort of a power over her mistress as she is the source of the fulfilment of her sexual needs. Therefore when Rabbo goes to visit her son Begum Jaan is “restless” and virtually starves herself the entire day. In the story the paradigm of male female relationship is replaced by that of class. Furthermore,…

away from. This is dangerous because the gods are punishing Oedipus’s city of Thebes for his wrongdoing. Tiresias tells Oedipus that he is the source of the corruption and Oedipus does not take it well, “I say you are the murderer you hunt. That obscenity, twice – by god, you’ll pay.”(Sophocles 413-414). This quote can be paraphrased as; I am telling you that you are the criminal you wish curses upon. That profanity, two times – by god you’ll atone. Sophocles depicts Oedipus trying to deny his…

the role and purpose of the artwork in question; whether the role and purpose is to provide a different perspective to the community, giving rise to a necessity to provoke and/or confront the viewer.” Although this assessment, also known as the “Obscenity Test,” assists in categorizing artwork as harmful or beneficial to society, this evaluation has not eliminated the subjective and moralistic elements of the law. The courts cannot help but continue to make judgements concerning the legitimate…
