...AN: Doing these chapters are so confusing sometimes because there are 19 parts but only 18 chapters fml. Once Sinbad finally walked back into the throne room from the balcony he noticed Judal asleep on the throne. "Never thought I would see a queen asleep on a throne." "Shall I wake him up?" Sharrkan asked. "No, no, I got this" Sinbad carefully picked up Judal bridal style and smiled as he watched the beautiful raven snuggle up to him. "So, Ja'far... how do you feel?" "Well, I'll be alright. Although I can't believe I'm saying this, you were right when you said that I knew nothing about him." Sinbad nodded and smiled. "He's very sweet when you get to know him. You just have to take time to try and understand him. I always listen to him because if I don't understand his feelings I feel as if he'll get upset and push me away..." "I wouldn't do that to you, Sinbad..." Sinbad jumped slightly as he noticed Judal opening his eyes. "If I push you away then I'll be all alone and I'm afraid of being alone..." "Judal no matter how much you push me away I would never leave you completely alone. Only saying this if there is a time that you would push me away." "Which I wouldn't." Sinbad chuckled lightly "Of course not~" Sinbad gently sat him down on the ground and kissed his forehead. Judal smiled lightly and held his hands "So, you're finished, right?" "Yes, we can retire back to the ship or we can wander around Parthevia for a bit...?" "Well... I guess we can wander around for...

...Dialectical Journal – Frankenstein Quotation (with Pg. #) Commentary Letters through Chapter 6 “…the sun is forever visible, its broad disk just skirting the horizon and diffusing a perpetual splendour.” ~ p. 1 The author uses personification to give a playful and happy mood to the sun. "I have often attributed my attachment to, my passionate enthusiasm for, the dangerous mysteries of the ocean, to that production of the most imaginative of modern poets." ~ p. 7 The author uses an element of Romanticism of nature to reveal the hidden secrets to the world. “Why not still proceed over the untamed yet obedient element? What can stop the determined heart and resolved will of man?” ~ p. 8 The author allows each individual’s power to show a rebellious style of Romanticism. “…the mist cleared away, and we beheld, stretched out in every...

...affect neglect has on the characters. 3) Paternal nurture provides protection and strength to push an individual forward while the love and care of maternal nurture holds an individual back. Nurture from a friend can fill maternal and/or paternal gaps and stabilizes an individual. I also want to class to take away how Shelley emphasizes the importance of nurturing by showing the effects of neglect. 4) I will open my presentation with a quote about nurture. I will then tell a short story that leads into my first topic. I will explain paternal nurture and its significance by showing the effects of paternal neglect. I will follow this same format for maternal and friend nurture. Creative IOP Statement of Intent Form Name of Work: Frankenstein 1) Shelley distinguishes the how the different types of nurture, maternal, paternal, and friend, impact an individual’s direction as well as how a lack of nurture and specific types of care create gaps in a person’s emotional well-being. The type and extent of the nurture the characters receive has a significant impression on their motivations and actions and can provide an explanation for their behavior because they will try to fill the emotional gaps and typically, it ends in destructive behavior. Shelley emphasizes the importance of nurture by showing the affect neglect has on the characters. 2) My presentation will have instructional format, but have a conversational tone. The audience will have little involvement; I will be teaching...

...When I received a copy of James S. Valliant’s book, The Passion of Ayn Rand’s Critics: The Case Against the Brandens, I was a little apprehensive about reviewing it. It seems that every time a discussion commences about the “juicy” bits of Ayn Rand’s sexual and romantic entanglements, it takes on a life of its own, and the discussion never seems to end. Cyber-forums can’t even mention this book without provoking hundreds of rancorous posts among people who are still personally involved in the developments surrounding the break between Ayn Rand and Nathaniel Branden and Barbara Branden. It’s as if the War of ‘68 is still raging. I was fortunate when I came to the study of Ayn Rand. I was eight years old when Rand and the Brandens went their separate ways. I knew none of the principals involved, and didn’t actually discover Rand’s work until nearly ten years later—when I was a senior in high school in 1977. And even after I’d discovered her work, I'd read everything she wrote without the assistance of going to live lectures or attending group meetings of people sitting around a vinyl turntable or an audio-tape player, listening to recordings of said lectures. I eventually listened to the vast bulk of those lectures as background for the preparation of my book, Ayn Rand: The Russian Radical, but even that research was pursued independently. My work was not the product of any assistance from any Objectivist institute or organization. Around 1992, however, as I was researching my...
