...The flawed and the flawless! Why couldn't God make the world flawless? God made the world beautiful, but humans made it a living hell. Go out in the morning, at the crack of dawn and you will see birds chirping, the parent birds going out and fetching food for their offspring, Elephant taking care of its younger child, Tigers saving up food for the tigress and their offspring. Nature was meant to be beautiful but there was one flaw... humans. Human beings have emotions and emotions can be good or bad. Good emotions do no harm but bad ones do the harm. If God created us with loving purposes in mind, if we share qualities that have their counterpart in God himself, if we are his personal representatives, put here to care for his creation why is the world in such a mess? To deny that something is wrong is simply to be...

...“If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, these women together ought to be able to turn it back, and get it right side up again! And now they are asking to do it, the men better let them.” With this statement the ideal of feminism had been implanted within the souls of every oppressed woman within the sound range of the speakers’ voice. In fact, the first prominent feminist was NOT Beyonce—albeit “Flawless” is a very catchy song. In fact one of the first very prominent female activists didn’t need such a huge following to not only be uneducated but easily eloquent. Sojourner Truth became a symbol of hope and strength for not only African Americans, but African American women...

...impossible to imagine a perfect world. No war, poverty, or hunger. Constant equality and nobody is left out. But, like all things, perfection comes at a cost. In The Giver, this price is you no longer have freedom and must obey all rules or suffer death. Your family will be chosen for you, your differences frowned upon. On top of all this, the pain of the world would never truly go away. It would simply be placed in the hands of a young individual chosen to suffer. Doesn’t sound so perfect anymore, does it? Family consists of a mother and father, as well as “two children- one male, one female- to each family unit. It was written in the rules.” -Giver 11. This is an ideal and perfect family, according to the maker of the Community, which is a flawless society that Jonas and everyone he knows lives in.

...all spectrums of race, class, sex, and sexuality. It will always be a movement for particularly women, but it seems to expand across time. In this present day in age, society has evolved across time, and media has made some differences in advertisements, TV shows and films. On the contrary, there are events that still appear on the web, social media and within music, specifically. For example, I was surfing the web, and ran across different artist. Some statements made were about women empowerment, body image/politics and sexual objectification, specifically the artist Beyoncé. The purpose of this essay is to discuss how Beyoncé’s song Flawless depicts feminism as well as redefining beauty. To accomplish this purpose, first I will discuss Beyoncé’s song flawless. Second, I will compare feminism to Beyoncé’s lyrics of the song flawless. Finally, I will summarize and give scholarly insight and implications on future pop culture. Beyoncé is a multi-talented performer and a superstar to millions of fans across the world. She is an African American, female and feminist. Across time, Beyoncé has been on a movement to find a neutral base, through her song, for genders to see each other...

Her honey blonde hair lies loose and curled around her flawless face. A silky magenta cloth is draped behind and around her, emphasizing her alluring eyes and inviting smile. Her hand is strategically placed upon her shoulder revealing her black bra strap. The word “Covergirl” is written at the top of the ad across the actress’s forehead in all capital letters and white font. Under the title is the famous Covergirl slogan, “easy, breezy, beautiful.” This text however, is fairly small and is all lowercase letters. Slightly below the slogan, is the actress’ name, Sofia Vergara written in capital letters, in a magenta pink color. There are several groups of text on this ad as well. The first piece of text provocatively sits upon the shoulder of actress. It is a bolded, in all capital text that reads “SMOOTH IS THE NEW SEXY”. Slightly under the listed text is a persuading line that says “New UltraSmooth foundation with Ola serum. This is also in white text in the same font. “Instantly smoothes away redness, blemishes and unevenness for flawless skin. Even up close” is written in the bottom right margin of the advertisement. In fine print it reads “Sofia is Sexy in Soft Honey.” This is also written in white. On the far right side of the ad is an image of the product. Covergirl uses several...

...The desire to create a perfect society has been alive for centuries. The effort to make a utopia can be seen throughout history. In the novel Brave New World, Aldous Huxley writes about the idea of a flawless community. During Huxley’s time, the Nazis were in pursuit to establish their pure nation forcibly by using violence to organize a world of only fit Germans. Attempts to design a ideal society can still be seen today such as in America and North Korea. The paths of building a faultless society can happen in many ways. In the 1930-40s, there was a well known movement to form the perfect society. A group in Germany, called the Nazi’s, had a certain idea of a unblemished race and tried methods of constructing a society with only the “perfect”...

...that, through lower prices and even better, a focus on you the customer. That company is JetBlue led by its visionary Founder and CEO David Neeleman. Neeleman believes so strongly in delivering customer value to his passengers that he often rides flights to hear personal direct feedback from passengers as it is happening, and he also likes to be paged whenever a flight is delayed or something in the JetBlue business is not properly executed according to the JetBlue standards (Johnson, & Weinstein, 2004 pg 315 – 316). Neeleman has set forth three guiding principles that are known as the “Golden Rules” and govern the business of JetBlue and its employees. Those principles are: flawless executions at every customer contact point, making matters right with the customers if the execution is not flawless and treating employees well (Johnson, & Weinstein, 2004 pg 317). Neeleman who was formerly a founder of another airline and longtime leadership member of rival Southwest feels that combining efficiency, technology, and a focus on customer value will continue to drive customer loyalty around what has become one of the, if not the single, strongest brands in the Airline industry. Neeleman and JetBlue have set out with the goal of “bringing humanity back to airline travel and making flying more enjoyable” (Johnson, & Weinstein, 2004 pg 315 – 316). JetBlue has been doing many great things since its inception in 2000. One of the main items JetBlue consistently capitalizes on...

We’re either trying to protect someone they care about, avenge someone the care about, or get over someone they care about. Not a single out of shape male character. Even villain made to be physically attractive with dark humor. The girls were tall, skinny and in shape as well. Lead female character has long hair, natural makeup, long lashes, “hour-glass” shape in the sense that she has decent size breasts, tiny waste, nice hips and thighs. Other females in the show: “wild” hair yet still tame. Heavier eye make up with an i-don’t-care attitude, but still needs a protector. Again very sexy, in shape, tight outfits. Another main character, Bonnie, has short hair but is stylish, again small, flat stomach – only curves in the “right places”. All girls very “soft” – no pores, skin looks velvety, not a flaw to be found. Villain we are made to love-hate. He’s a murdering, sociopath who is still attractive and compelling. Holds to the physical standards of the rest in that he is built, but his actions and desire to murder another main character makes you dislike.

In whole, points of view are mind boggling systems. Humankind as of now needs finish information of precisely how the manner of thinking functions, and accordingly needs finish control over the same. Without a complete comprehension of manners of thinking, and strategies to totally control the same, Humanity can never have a genuine Utopia. Under current circumstances individuals can be set in a flawless domain, however there will even now be disdain, desire, and different indications of negative considerations and activities. To put it plainly, a flawless domain won't give an immaculate presence to a blemished being. It is a Catch 22 for a blemished seeking so as to be to look for an immaculate presence a flawless spot. Along these lines, Utopia is more than a spot, it is a condition of being that satisfies both sides of human duality. With a specific end goal to achieve Utopia we must have the capacity to immaculate our surroundings, as well as ourselves. Like control of the earth through innovation, our capacity to control perspectives is a fundamental bit of the Utopian riddle. We require a "couple of docs" (two specialists), one to settle our surroundings, and one to alter ourselves. When we can control and direct negative contemplations, and get the capacity to have unadulterated thought...

...be tricky to understand but I think I have a pretty clear understanding of what rhetorical knowledge is. Let me first explain what rhetoric is. Rhetoric is the ability in each particular case to see the available means of persuasion. We use this all the time is our everyday life; when we speak, write, or any type of communication to convince other we are using rhetoric. For example say you’re watching TV and Dove soap commercial comes on, there’s a woman in the commercial that uses a different brand of soap and she states that she is having problems with dry skin and there’s is another woman who uses Dove soap states that she has soft and flawless skin from using Dove soap. The Dove Company would be using rhetoric in this commercial because they are trying to convince you that if you use their brand of soap you will have soft and flawless skin as a result unlike any other brand of soap. I used rhetoric in my everyday life without even know what is truly was. I’ve always worked in retail so I have used rhetoric to convince customers that they should buy a particular item or reason why they should take advantage of a particular deal that is going in in the store at that time. I will continue to use rhetoric in my everyday life because I currently still work in retail. I plan on using it in my writing also because I plan on apply for a few scholarships in the near feature and I will have to persuade the people that are giving the scholarship the writing that I am a great candidate...

...art, the body becomes a site for defining individual identity, constructing sex and gender ideals, negotiating power, and experimenting with the nature of representation itself. The body is not always portrayed as it actually looks, and it may even be altered so much that it does not resemble a real human body at all. As stated by the authors of Gateways to Art, the reality of the body can be distorted to suggest great beauty, or to emphasize a myriad of qualities like power, status, wisdom, and even god-like perfection (DeWitte 554). Because there are so many ways the body can be depicted in art, it is important to understand the various motivations behind the creation of different styles. It's important to consider the tradition of the flawless classical god and goddess in painting and sculpture and how modern artists like Manet, Degas, Matisse and Picasso transgressed the established classical approach of depicting the human figure. The human body is essential to myth and storytelling, as it is the first reference point, the original source of sensation and apprehension that gives rise to all questions and all attempts to answer them. Certain popular and deep-seated metaphors and symbols — images used for understanding and expressing human beliefs and situations, such as Achilles' heel and Adam's rib — are taken from myths associated with the body. It’s important to discuss the “ideal proportions” exemplified through the art of various...
