...Phobophobia 1408 is full of events representing different phobias. Pyrophobia, frigophobia, and acrophobia are just few of the many phobias shown in the story. Another three that stick out are phasmophobia, claustrophobia, and agoraphobia. While others may lurk in the background, The fears of ghosts, tight spaces, and helplessness steal the spotlight. These three fears are foundations that Stephen King used to turn 1408 a truly scary story. One of the main phobias shown in 1408 is phasmophobia. Phasmophobia is the fear of ghosts or spirits. This fear is one of the most present phobias in the story, as Mike Enslin is constantly catching glimpses of spirits of previous residents of room 1408 roaming about the room. Along with that, he returns to the bathroom to find the towels and toilet paper once again folded, pictures...

...of View Throughout Stephen King’s “1408” Over the past years, Stephen King has made several novels that are mysterious, fearful, and dark. Many of Stephen King’s books will show the main character’s inner emotions. This allows the readers to understand what the main character is feeling or going through. This creates a very good suspense for the readers because it makes the readers feel as if they were in the scene of the stories. Stephen King’s short story, “1408”, is about a man named Mike who writes all types of books. Madness is defined as a state of severe mental illness (Merriam-Webster). In Stephen King’s “1408”, the author uses third person point of view with limited omniscience to show the mental and emotional transformation of Mike’s increasing madness from the beginning to the end of the story. Hotel Dolphin is like any other normal hotel that one would assume is safe to stay in. The only difference is that it contains a room like no other. The room seems to always play with people’s head causing horrible fatalities. One could assume that Mike Enslin started showing a little bit of madness even before he entered room 1408. For example, one would have to be insane to stay in room 1408. Instead Mike’s hard headedness shows no change on his mind about staying in the room. This could possibly foreshadow his traumatic experience in the room. Mikes madness clearly increases as he enters in the hallway. For example, the door of 1408 appeared to be slanted. This can either...

...1 Comparison of Three Sculptures The major difference between the three Davids is based on the periods in which they were carved. Michelangelos was during the Renaissance (1501-1504), Berninis is Baroque (1623), and Donatello carved his David, or Davids, (1408) during the Gothic period. Each gives a sense of style but also different perspectives on why art even exists. Michelangelo’s David is very large in size and stands 14-feet tall. This makes him a rather imposing figure, looking as if he is looming over his admirers. It is more than obvious that this David is naked, has no flaws, and seems to be in perfect health sending off the perception of the perfect man. Classical Greek sculptures idealized there subjects, which was typical of the Renaissance period in which he was carved. Michelangelo’s David seems to be pondering something very important, planning on the battle that is ahead of him. His pose also shows a style of classical Greek called contrapposto, thought to be a distinctive feature of antique sculpture. Michelangelos David is considered to be a symbol of both strength and youthful human beauty. Bernini’s David, on the other hand, is posed as if he is in the midst of battle with Goliath. Viewers can imagine the rock thrown at Goliath by looking at the way his legs are spread and body is twisted. Even his facial expressions show emotional strength envisioning a battle ahead. Where Michelangelo uses his mind to ponder the upcoming battle...

...Pamela Franklin BIBL 110 D19 Undergraduate Program Professor Spencer December 13, 2015 Interpretive Project 2 Paul's letter to the Galatians describes (in part) how to maintain Christian liberty and how to walk in the Spirit. Galatians 5: 16-18 (RSV) states: "But I say, walk by the Spirit and do not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you would. But if you are led by the Spirit you are not under the law." The following illustrates the four steps of the Interpretive Journey for New Testament Letters in Duvall and Hays Journey into God's Word: Your Guide to Understanding and Applying the Bible found on pages 100-102: Step 1: Grasp the text in their town The body of the churches in Galatia consisted mostly of converted Jews and Gentiles. A group of converted Jews called Judaizers infiltrated the church and began teaching that in order to be saved, a person must keep the Law of Moses. This is what was called heresy (a false message), and one of the primary reasons for Paul writing this letter. Circumcision was the way of the law at the time and the Judaizers promoted it as the only way to salvation. Galatians 5: 1-12 tells us how to maintain Christian liberty. In Galatians 5: 16-18, Paul discusses how to walk by the Spirit and declares that the only way to salvation is not by following...

...Case law analysis Name Institution Professor Course Date United States vs Quality Stores Inc The case of United States government vs quality stores, Inc. was argued on 14th January, 2014 and decided on 25th march 2014. The plaintiff was the United States government with the petitioner being quality stores, Inc. the respondent was accused of making severance payments to its involuntarily terminated employees. The payments made varied depending on the seniority of the employees and the time they served and was not connected to receipts of the state insurance for unemployment. This led to the respondent withholding inter alia taxes that were supposed to be paid to the state as per the Federal Insurance Contribution Act (United States vs Quality stores Inc. et al, 2014). The disagreement occurred since Quality stores Inc. believed that severity payments were not taxable as per the Federal Insurance Contributions Act and was seeking a reimbursement on behalf of itself and its 1850 terminated former employees. Proceedings were initiated at the bankruptcy court since the internal revenue service never allowed or denied the refund and ultimately, the summary judgement made went in favor of Quality store Inc. The district court and the sixth circuit courts of the appeal concluded that severance payments never amounted to wages under the federal insurance contribution act. This ruling was made despite FICA’s definition of wages broadly incorporating any form of remuneration...

...Phobias and Addictions Kevin Hostetler PSY 300 February 16, 2014 Cara Patterson Phobias and Addictions In order to effectively examine any relationship between phobias, addictions and types of conditioning, it is important to first define and examine the differences between classical conditioning and operant conditioning. According to the Free Dictionary (2014), classical conditioning is defined as “A process of behavior modification by which a subject comes to respond in a desired manner to a previously neutral stimulus that has been repeatedly presented along with an unconditioned stimulus that elicits the desired response.” Operant conditioning however is defined by Mirriam-Webster.com (2014) as “conditioning in which the desired behavior or increasingly closer approximations to it are followed by a rewarding or reinforcing stimulus.” The important distinction between the two is that classical conditioning relies on neutral stimulus, where operant conditioning uses positive or negative reinforcement, rewards, or punishment to achieve results. Following from the definition of classical conditioning and working forward, one can see how phobias can be developed through classical conditioning. Since classical conditioning uses a neutral stimulus paired with an unconditioned response it is rather simple for the neutral stimulus to be something that initiates a sense of fear into the subject. Through this manner of bringing on fear in a subject, it is a small leap forward...

...found with a loss of power or resources and unable to do anything. The critical point of Orwell’s final observations, “Finally, Orwell wonders if any of his comrades understood that he killed the elephant “solely to avoid looking a fool”, is that in which colonialism from afar can be interpreted logically but the real incentive of its savagery is the triumph of irrational insecurity. Orwell’s tone in the final paragraph is apathetic, in that he pays particular attention to the racial inequalities that are present in Burma. Moreover, in stating “ The older men said I was right, the younger men said it was a damn shame to shoot an elephant for killing a coolie, because an elephant was worth more than any damn Coringhee coolie” (Broadview. pg 1408), Orwell is highlighting the colonial impact of the British peoples viewpoint, as well as his internal struggle with the decision regarding the choice he made in killing the elephant by analyzing the interpretations of the Europeans perspectives. ...

...Fra Angelico Born in 1395 in Vicchio, Italy, Fra Angelico was known as Guido di, Pietro. In his existence, Fra Angelico was also called Fra Giovanni da Fiesole and Beato Angelico. On 17 October 1417, Fra joined a confraternity at the Carmine Church while still going by the name Guido di Pietro. At that period, he had started his work as a painter as seen in the records of the church of Santo Stefano del Ponte. In 1418 while still a young lad, he and his brother Benedetto took the vow to become Monks according to the order of Dominican Preachers. Consequently, he chose the name Fra Angelico while at the convent of San Domenico in Fiosele. (Tabucchi and Tim, 98) At around 1425, Fra Giovanni became a friar going under the name Giovanni da Fiesole. Not much has been recorded about his parents but presumably, he was from a wealthy background. By 1418, he had completed his novitiate in Cortona. Fra Angelico nurtured a profound religious love for humanity and an appreciation of humility before his God. Angelico started out training together with his brother as an illuminator of missals and other religious books before later pursuing fresco painting. At around 1420, he and his brother opened a painter's workshop in Fiesole. The Order of Preachers belonged to the two new mendicant orders of the era. Unlike their predecessors, the two orders kept in close contact with the community mostly as priests, teachers, or inquisitors. Hence, Fra believed that his work created a medium for all...

...Phobias and Addictions Phobias and Addictions Everyone has a phobia and an addiction. A phobia is an extreme or irrational fear of or aversion to something: "he had a phobia about being under water"; "a phobia of germs.” An addiction is the fact or condition of being addicted to a particular substance, thing, or activity. Phobias and addictions are related to classical and operant conditioning. Phobias and addictions are two emotional difficulties, which theorists can account for. Phobias can be acquired through classical conditioning by pairing a neutral stimulus with something that causes pain. Phobia responses can be permanent unless the organism is subjected to the extinction process. In the extinction process, one must confront the fear without the presence of the unconditioned stimulus. For example, in Watson’s experiment, Little Albert developed a phobia of white rats (and other furry objects) as a result of pairing the white rat with a loud bang. The phobia could have been extinguished by repeatedly exposing Little Albert to the white rat without the loud bang. Another way to extinguish a phobia is through counter conditioning. In counter conditioning, the conditioned stimulus is paired with a pleasant stimulus. Little Albert could have extinguished his phobia of the white rat by pairing it with something pleasant (e.g., food, praise) ("Phobias,” 2010). Ivan Pavlov is known for his theory...

...The desirability of Whistler Blackcomb and Sochi as winter and summer destination resorts. We can think of Whistler Blackcomb and Sochi as winter and summer destination resorts by having in our mind one historical event for the year 2010 when the Vancouver Olympic Winter Games started in the westernmost province of British Columbia and recently launched the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics. It makes sense to organize Olympic Games on the territories that can serve as winter and summer destination resorts. Why? To answer this question let’s consider the geography and all necessary infrastructures needed and designed to carry out the whole bunch of sport venues. Host country’s Organizing Committees are responsible for installing necessary infrastructures for organizing the Olympic Games such as Olympic Villages, air-supported domes, stadiums, training ice rinks and other facilities for competing during the games. It also assists with medical services, lodging facilities, means of transportation for the athletes and officials. For organizing Winter Olympic Games which includes alpine skiing, luge, ski jumping host county’s geography should provide mountain chains, and for Summer Olympics that include canoe sprint, canoe slalom or sailing, geographically the country needs ocean, seas and lakes. As it is mentioned in our case, Whistler is a resort town with nearly 10,000 permanent residents and has two million visitors annually. It served as the designated site of Olympic events. To attract...
