...University Visual information, especially delivered through movies, is believed to have an influence on destination image and consumer behavior. Based on the theory that knowledge about an object might cause feelings toward the object, visual information through movies can be assumed to affect not only destination image but also social distance between groups and, thus, to affect tourist behavior regarding the destination. With a quasi-experimental design, this study investigates if there is a relationship between visual information from movies and consumer-behavior variables, including destination image, destination desirability, visit intention, and social distance, taking Turkey as a case in point and a promotional movie as the stimuli. Results provide partial support for potential impact of movies on the consumer-behavior variables included in this study. Implications and future research suggestions are provided. Keywords: A destination image; visual information; social distance; stereotypical image; Turkey mong the several factors that impact destination image, the influential role of information provided by the visual media, such as movies, has been empirically supported not only on destination-image formation but also on subsequent consumer behavior (Tooke and Baker 1996; Hanefors and Mossberg 2002; Morgan, Pritchard, and Piggott 2003; Riley, Baker, and Doren 1998). However, one potential link in the circle of impact of visual media, destination-image formation, and behavioral...

...What is the Buddhist analysis of human life? Introduction It is well known that according to Buddhism, human-being is a combination of ever‐changing physical and mental forces or energies. To have a deep analysis of the human life, Buddhism divides the human beings into five groups as “five aggregates”. This technical term contains the Aggregate of Matter, the Aggregate of Sensations, the Aggregate of Apperceptions, the Aggregate of Mental Formations, and finally is the Aggregate of Consciousness. The five aggregates are essential for Buddhism to analyze human life, which also show that Buddhist analysis of human life focuses more on mind than the physical things. In addition, the examination of the five aggregates is important in Buddha’s teaching for at least four reasons as mentioned below. Firstly, as we all know, all four noble truths focus on suffering and the five aggregates are the ultimate referent of the first noble truth. Therefore, it is important to understand the five aggregates in advance, in order to further analyze the Four Noble Truth. Also, they are the objective domain of clinging and can help analyze the causal origination of suffering in the future. Thirdly, in order to release from suffering, the removal of clinging is an essential step, which is tightly related to the objects around (King 1989, 158). And its tentacles are named as five aggregates. Finally, in order to obtain the wisdom that can have a clear and accurate insight into the real nature...

...In modern society, the growing importance of the mass media is linked to its deep and varied impact on people’s everyday life. Mass media creates and distributes knowledge about the world, today’s society, and its principles of organization and functioning. Mass media invents and reproduces styles and normative forms of behavior; and therefore, it actively participates in the formation of social reality. It is also important that present mass media is divided into different divisions using different forms of information appearance such as radio, television, internet, printed press. Along with this, printed press is one of the oldest categories of media and communication. Again, print also has such types of it as newspapers and magazines. This essay is aimed to distinguish and determine the most important differences between newspapers and magazines. Firstly, it is necessary to define general distinctions between newspapers and magazines. Newspapers are periodic editions and publications issued permanently, temporarily or “just-one-time”. Usually newspapers have not stapled sheets with a variety of articles, texts, and images of relatively small size. In general, newspapers dedicated primarily to current events of modern politics, culture, economics, science, sports and so on; and newspaper can be devoted to one particular of the areas and topics based on social conditions of the place where it is issued. Normally newspapers are compactly organized and structured in terms of physical...

...become Italy, Giordano Bruno lived from 1548-1600, at the precipice of an era of novel scientific and religious thought. His writings encourage speculation about his true beliefs through an ambiguity of illusions to unapproved modes and allows the reader to infer much while preserving religious solidarity. Bruno studied a wide variety of religious thought, both traditional and unorthodox, as well as many pagan, esoteric, scientific and pseudo-scientific genres. Through his concept of Divine Universality, he incorporates the divine into and throughout each level of existence. His forthrightness remains an opening for debate on a wide variety of subjects. He was a staunch believer that varied spiritualities should be melded...

...which inevitably include the nominative one. As a primary language function, the nominative function assumes the language system ability to designate and to isolate fragments of reality, transferring their notions into words, word combinations, idioms and sentences. The dynamic development of cognitive and communicative activities of human society and, as a result, the emergence of new realities, artifacts, objects of material and spiritual culture really determine one of the main tasks of language as "providing all spheres of life activity of a person with new designations" [3]. However, the role of the language in organizing and storing information in our mind is still unclear. A lot of disciplines are aimed at studying perception, reflection of the reality and principles of information transforming. The...

...[pic] JPPSS ELA COURSE GUIDE 2011-2012 ENGLISH I The JPPSS Instructional Sequence Guides are aligned with the LA Comprehensive Curriculum. JPPSS Implementation of Activities in the Classroom Incorporation of activities into lesson plans is critical to the successful implementation of the Louisiana Comprehensive Curriculum. The Comprehensive Curriculum indicates one way to align instruction with Louisiana standards, benchmarks, and grade-level expectations. The curriculum is aligned with state content standards, as defined by grade-level expectations (GLEs), and organized into coherent, time-bound units with sample activities and classroom assessments to guide teaching and learning. The units in the curriculum have been arranged so that the content to be assessed will be taught before the state testing dates. While teachers may substitute equivalent activities and assessments based on the instructional needs, learning styles, and interests of their students, the Comprehensive Curriculum should be a primary resource when planning instruction. Grade level expectations—not the textbook—should determine the content to be taught. Textbooks and other instructional materials should be used as resource in teaching the grade level expectations...

...Design + Culture: New Directions for Interior Design Scholarship and Pedagogy Date: March 15-16, 2015 Fort Worth, Texas Guest Editor: Tasoulla Hadjiyanni Associate Professor, Interior Design University of Minnesota Title: Design as a malleable structure: Reframing the conceptual understanding of design and culture through George Kubler’s morphological approach to the history of things Author: Joori Suh, Assistant Professor, Interior Design Department, Iowa State University Under the banner of globalization and internationalization, what actually happens in design? Has today’s blended culture lost the identity unique to the context? What should be the interior design educator’s attitude toward teaching design and culture in the current age? We encounter dilemmas in global design, the results of which are sometimes almost identical regardless of unique settings because of our tendency to grasp design as a whole with respect to particular style or trend without fully apprehending the core and the deviation. Perceiving the entire design project as a mere symbolic expression also hinders our true understanding of design and culture. In this article, I attempt to answer fundamental questions regarding the complex, innate relationship between design and culture and suggest restructuring a conceptual framework applicable to related research and education that effectively reveals the multi faceted characteristics of design and culture in the present age. From the perspective of morphology...

If a student fails either part of the examination, he or she may be reexamined once more, if that is the recommendation of the examination committee and Chair of the department. In the case of the M.A. student specializing in literature, the Comprehensive Exam in literature may act as gateway to the Ph.D. It amounts to Part I of the Ph.D. Qualifying Exam. The Italian Literature Specialization The exam here is based on an individualized reading list, prepared by the student in consultation with the Director of Graduate Studies and a departmental faculty member of their choice. This list will be based on the much larger Comprehensive M.A. Reading List (available from the Graduate Student Officer). The chosen faculty member will chair and help form the M.A. exam committee, composed of three members, all Italian ladder faculty or, with approval of the Graduate Director, of ladder faculty and visiting faculty. The reading list must be submitted for approval to all members of the M.A. exam committee at least one month prior to the exam. The individualized list will follow these guidelines: • It must include between 15 and 25 texts, depending on length and complexity, chosen from the comprehensive list. Students can substitute texts not on that list with individual approval. • The chosen texts must be distributed...
