Essays on Smile

Heralded as one of the wonders of the art world, Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa has inspired artists and sparked debates for centuries. At a price point of about $787 million, one must wonder if this incredible price point is due to the ongoing mystery of what lies behind Mona Lisa’s smile. It is reported that Da Vinci played music for Mona Lisa while he painted her, however the validity of this is up for debate, much like the cause for the expression on her face. It is my personal opinion that the slight smile was due to ...

In his book Satanic Panic: The Creation of a Contemporary Legend sociologist Jeffrey S. Victor considers the issue connected with the panic in the American society connected with the existence of satanic cults. The author’s thesis is clear: he believes that satanic cults with all the terrors connected with them are non-existent: “None of these claims (is) supported by reliable evidence. My research suggests that they are baseless and misleading. Moreover, these claims exploit widespread fears, particularly the anxieties parents have about their children. The claims are significant, however, because they are themselves the symptoms of serious problems ...

1. How would you characterize Martha Stewart’s initial public relations response to the charges against her? Martha Stewart’s initial response was inappropriate. She should have shifted from her usual image of being blunt, stern and tight-lipped to a more accommodating. She did not answer the press when asked and instead went online later to issue her response. Her stance conveyed an image of aloofness. It was time to speak but instead she stayed silent. She needed to reassure her supporters and stakeholders that she is fine and they will overcome the problems. 2. What key public relations ...

2. Why did you select this project to discuss? I selected this project because I am a nurse and I interact with patients’ every day. Nonverbal cues are special types of communication, and learning about how the cues can be used on a patient helps one to master communication and interaction with patients. Also, as a nurse, I always need to communicate with patients without using my voice, to show them that I care about the medication process, and I am keen on giving them the best treatment possible. There are those cases where patients are in pain and ...

She can now understand English even though she still has difficulties expressing herself in English. JJ is very sensitive and used to cry about every little thing even when I changed her diapers.

The lights say nothing of their purpose. The city splits the view as a narrow band in darkness fractured by the lines of light from its houses, from its streets, life contrasting with black emptiness but conveying no meaning. From far away the details evaporate. Personal existences, millions of them, in all their action, all their dreams, signal their presence anonymously. The clouds above, barely perceptible, present as much to the camera in their transient passing as these millions of people reduced to mere light present as signifiers, place marks, splats on a map, splats that barely rise above ...

“Integrated Marketing Communication recommends that marketers focus at the customer first – his or her preferences, buying patterns, media exposure, and other factors – and then customer is exposed to the products that fits its need through mix of communication methods which the customer find more attractive and credible” (Naeem, Bilal, & Naz). Advertisement for organizations is a key method that companies promote products and inform consumers about products, services, and developments that the organization is offering to the public, while simultaneously conveying an intended message to the audience about the need to purchase the service or products that are being offered. ...

The last one decade has been marked by a great evolution of how advertisements are translated. This process is currently known as “advertising localization” and focuses on dealing with having a successful translation of adverts from one language to another without changing the objective of the particular advertisement (Malmkjær & Windle, 2012). The act of advertising is an important tool when it comes to informing the consumer on the diversity of the products present in the market (Chidiac & Saliba, n.d). Various factors have led to the evolution with some including the trade intensification and the globalization of the economies. ...

The stars lined across the April night are peeking through the blinds and illuminating the parts of my bedroom that the straining night light by the bed cannot reach. I am seldom without sleep but this night is different. "You should see my bedroom I mean there is nothing special about it, just an ordinary bachelor bedroom – you should see how the light from the stars tear through the curtains and draw patterns on the wall. It is beautiful just like you my Darling." It was easy to write about the night and the moon and stars and Camilla's ...

Each and every single day people come across pictorial advertisements that endeavor to influence one’s opinions and activities in definite ways. Whether the purpose is to obtain a product or back a cause, many various corporations and organizations continuously solicit for the public’s consideration, and they recognize that the finest method of attaining it is through capturing advertising. However, in a culture surrounded by commercial advertisement, businesses have to be resourceful to stand out and stay ahead of the competition (Tag 120). Some creators use the suspense dynamic to create an impression to their audience, whereas others ...

Formalist Criticism of My Last Duchess

My Last Duchess is probably the best example of the dramatic monologue, a poetical form that was invented and applied essentially by one of the foremost Victorian poets, Robert Browning. A dramatic monologue should certainly have a character who speaks to some particular person, mainly certain silent listener, in the manner of a dramatic speech and has to take place in specific physical setting like that of a drama. The poem My Last Duchess definitely belongs to the dramatic monologue because it, at first, possesses three formal elements, such as an occasion, a speaker, and a hearer. Secondly, the ...

The image under discussion is an advertisement of Orbit chewing gum. The photograph is used to advertise the chewing gum in a glossy magazine, and it is possible to presume that it addresses both male and female demographic. The photo includes both an image of a handsome young man and a catchy text to accompany it. The advertisement displays a young man, handsome, confident and even provocative, with classy hairstyle and perfectly-fitting suit. It is a close-up; therefore a viewer can see only the face and shoulders of the model. The focus is on the man’s face; his ...

We have slowly and reluctantly accepted that the lives that we live on the internet are not just abstract rather; they hold meaning and sentiment for the most of us. We like to keep in touch with very close friends and even partners that we have become unfortunate enough to move away from, and we even find ourselves making new friends when online. So, since we have established and passed the responsibility over to the internet to take care of our emotional needs of this nature, we have also found that we can trust the same internet with the ...

Body Language

The term ‘body language’ speaks for itself. It conveys the following meaning: your body can speak without words. In fact, it is a kind of non-verbal communication, which sometimes tells more than words. That is why it is important to learn body language, in order to understand it and to know how to apply this knowledge in practice.

Background

One of my patients—I’ll call her Mrs. Jones—has severe hypertension. Apparently, it runs in her family, as she tells me that her mother had “high pressure,” as do two of her siblings. She worries that her children may have inherited the condition, but knows that if that turns out to be true it is not her fault. In all of the cases within the family, the hypertension has come on in late middle age.

Spiritual Assessment

The Jones family is quite religious. I base this judgment on my observations of the family and from the conversations I’ve ...

There is an anecdote about Wittgenstein that seems to encapsulate his presence in the minds of 20th and 21st century theorists; Keynes was waiting for Wittgenstein to arrive and spoke to his companion, ‘God has arrived and on the afternoon train.’ It is hardly presumptive to say that theories of language, logic, and philosophy writ large have been forever changed by wittgenstein. However, the particularities of these changes are often confused and misrepresented. The irony then is how such confusion and misrepresentation demonstrate the work Wittgenstein was trying to accomplish in the first place: to assess how language constructs ...

This project is centered on applying scientific methods to study human behavior through the gathering of baseline information. The first half of the research will be a naturalistic observation focusing on a behavior, specifically on the use of eye contact between people walking inside the mall, in which the observer remains unobtrusive. The second half of the research will be an experiment, in which a variable is introduced that would either increase or decrease a behavior. The objective is to take note of the behavior change resulting from the variable, which will lead to a particular theory concerning the ...

Self-Knowledge

Self-knowledge is the process of self-awareness, understanding your deep essence, the meaning of life and your physical and mental capabilities. This need was originally laid in a person, as opposed to animals. A human makes almost everything in his life himself: selects the target, makes and corrects his mistakes, builds relationships with other people. Having come to an understanding of the meaning of his abilities, he becomes interesting not only to others, but also to himself, his personal self-esteem, quality and fullness of life increase. “I” concept is an individual's perception of himself and his role in the world. ...

The History of Vietnam

The Vietnam War has a major influence on people's perspective of Vietnam as a business environment. In recent years, the Vietnamese economy has been on the rise since 2012.

In the English-speaking cinematography, 1995 was the year of Jane Austen. As if trying to celebrate the 220th anniversary of the writer, who since the 20th century became to some extent even a cult figure, the filmmakers created just three versions of her novels “Sense and Sensibility”, “Pride and Prejudice” and “Emma”. I like the Jane Austen’s creativity and read almost all her books. I saw a lot of different adaptations of the book “Pride and Prejudice”, and by and large I like all of them. After seeing the film adaptation of “Sense and Sensibility”, directed by Ang ...

I can feel the stage being set, as if something in the air awakens me to it. Among the ear-piercing drumming and shredding, the singer’s vocal cords fleeing from his throat screaming “NIGHTMARE,” the raven-black crowd starts backing away from one another as they create a semi-perfect circle. Everyone is stalking their prey across the circle as they wait for the chorus to start. Suddenly, I feel a sweaty grip pulling my left hand into the crowd away from the circle to the front rows. Startled, I tilt my head to see who is pulling me – it is ...

Fluxus art movement or simply Fluxus, started as a loosely defined group of artists, musicians and poets who had nothing more in common than a vision of life integrated in art, and art as the living of a life. More than 50 artists were associated with the art movement, creating music and anti-music, art that was not adherent to ‘museum defined standards’ and poems that were not traditional. This movement caused social and economic change in the society in the 1960’s (when it was first started) and had effects whose fruits we reap even today. This movement can ...

<Institution> Learning # 1: Self-actualization. Self-actualization is defined as “the process of fulfilling our potential” (Myers, 2015, 34.2). Example from my life – Abraham based the description of self-actualization from the lives of people who share characteristics, such as “self-aware and self-accepting, open and spontaneous, loving and caring, and not paralyzed by others’ opinions” (Myers, 2015, 34.2).

It has been well documented that Emily Dickinson wrote poetry for herself and her friends, not for publication. Her expression, found in her poetry, is an expression of self, often conflated as thoughts entered her mind from multiple directions creating mature works that bent and formed new visions different and fuller than that original image at the beginning of each poem. Emily Dickinson’s reclusive nature is revealed in much of her poetry. It is in those written lines where she explores her world. Her work, relegated to letters to her friends, was from her soul and not meant ...

There is never an opportune moment for death. Death occurs when people least expect it. Edgar Allen Poe in his “The Cask of Amontillado” and Kate Chopin in her “The Story of an Hour” talk about how death comes at inopportune moments - when it is least expected. Death is the central theme in both of these works, with the protagonists wishing for someone else’s death. The results however are completely different. Even though the protagonists wish for the other person to die, they really do not have a strong reason for them to die. Montresor talks of ...

The sun had already set when Dan reached the pub that spring evening. It was probably a bad idea to go anywhere near the place after that last AA-meeting, bu the didn’t care. It was Friday night and he desperately needed a drink. The phonecall he recieved earlier that day was still clinging to his mind, slowly turning into a blur by each bottle of beer that went through his throat, but one sentence refused to go away:

Browning narrates the scene through the voice of the duke, allowing understanding to dawn naturally on the reader as though they are hearing the story firsthand.

In reading Henry Mintzberg’s article, Organization design: fashion of fit? (1980), I was pleased that it was so easy to follow, that his concepts included examples that I could understand, and it was well organized.

Even though the article was published in the Harvard Business Review, it was written at a level that the average college student could understand, even a non-business major.

Mintzberg begins by tackling the assumption that too many people make: all organizations are alike. Indeed, they are not. He also clearly points out that ...

The time has come for action if it is ever to be more than an idea, a plan, an ambition, an objective.

The conventional wisdom says that you should date as many prospective candidates as you can in the hope that at some stage you will recognize that ...
