...Fruit of the Spirit/Desires of the Flesh http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StzK2CUdozw Opposites attract As I am sure you guess part of what I am going to bring up today is opposites. When talking in a relationship way many people would say that opposites attract. I do not completely doubt that this could be true, but I know from my own experience it has not been the case. If we really take a look at that statement and some opposites themselves and think about what it is saying as far as opposites go. The first thought that came to my mind as far as opposites was that of light and dark, but to avoid the philosophical debate of whether darkness is the opposite of light or merely the absence of light I’m going to avoid it. The next image that came to my head as far as opposites go is a compass. If you look at a compass you look at the directions on the compass it shows that when you look at one direction there is always a complete opposite direction. However, if you look at magnets we see that is actually what happens. It is the opposites that actually do attract in this case. For a magnet if they have the same magnetic polarity then they actually repel each other. So in this case opposites do attract. So really looking at the statement that opposites attract aside from the aforementioned magnets we see that they do not really attract, but most of the times are as far away from each other as possible. This is what we see in the scripture. We see a comparison in a...

...Duality of Enmity and Friendship An atmosphere of uncertainty pervades this play due to shifting allegiances. It is difficult to identify who is a friend and who is an enemy. On one hand, Coriolanus is a war hero who has a claim on the people's loyalty for his military services. On the other hand, the people dislike his pride and under the influence of the tribunes, quickly become his enemy and drive him out of Rome. This turns Coriolanus' allegiance from Rome to his former enemies, the Volscians. Aufidius and Coriolanus are sworn enemies who become friends after Coriolanus is banished, but envy and rivalry gain ascendancy in Aufidius' mind and he once again becomes Coriolanus' treacherous enemy. While such shifts come naturally to Aufidius and he is skilled at hiding them when needed, Coriolanus is of an open and guileless nature, so that everyone knows whose side he is on. As the age of martial conquest begins to give way to an age of political manoeuvring, it is no accident that Aufidius and the other politicians, Menenius, Brutus and Sicinius, survive, but Coriolanus falls to his tragic demise. Enemy: A5 S6: 1. Aufidius insults Coriolanus constantly at the end of the play, being called a traitor. Shows the audience the true extent of their formidable relationship, one half being a sight of betrayal, though if this was not the case, neither one would complete the other. This ignobility takes away Coriolanus’ honour. “ But tell the traitor in the highest degree. He...

...considered the premiere playwright of the English language. His works have survived the passage of time, been studied by both young students and academic scholars, and produced many phrases still used in modern times. Shakespeare’s impact on English is so prolific, in fact, that many people quote lines without being aware they are using expressions coined by England’s favorite bard. Shakespeare wrote histories based on the British monarchs, light comedies with romantic plots and happy endings, and heavy tragedies with dark plots that ended abruptly and unhappily. The true genius of William Shakespeare, however, is in wordplay and his ability to comprehend the human condition. His works discuss such universal themes as love, ambition, jealousy, anger, despair, grief, and death – emotions common to people in all generations and still relevant today. Love is the first and strongest of human emotions. It is the glue that holds human family and relationship together; it’s the ultimate emotion. Sometimes, however, those who are perfect for one another are unable to see the compatibility of their own union. Well-matched characters Beatrice and Benedick in Much Ado About Nothing need a nudge in the right direction. Beatrice is sharp-tongued and has no intention of marrying because a prior relationship with rapier-witted Benedick has left her heartbroken. When Uncle Lionato hopes “to see (her) one day fitted with a husband” (2.1.57) sharp-tongued Beatrice replies, “Not till God...

...degrading rumors about her. Once again, though, J.D. deceives Veronica, and Kurt and Ram are killed. Continually, there is symbolism in the colors that the four girls in Veronica’s clique wear. Heather Chandler, the leader of their clique, always wears red, which is known to be a symbol of power, wrath, and leadership: all qualities she possesses. In addition, Heather Duke portrays her ambition, greed, jealousy, and envy through the color green, while Heather McNamara wears yellow, which conveys blind loyalty, instability, and cowardice. Veronica Sawyer, the passive one and the outlier of their clique, wears dark colors like blue, which symbolize intelligence, trust, and confidence; or black, which forewarns death. On another point, the element of suspense is used in many scenes, most notably at the climax of the movie in the boiler room. As Veronica attempts to put an end to J.D.’s deceit, she creeps through Westerburg High School’s boiler room, alert for J.D. and his arsenal. As dark and intense music plays in the musky, dank boiler room, it seems as though with every breath that passes, the mood gets more tense and anticipatory; should she fail, it would mean death for her, the students, and staff upstairs. Finally, foreshadowing is used a number of times, usually in reference to the series of deaths and near deaths that are soon to happen. For example, when Veronica and the Heathers discussed a forged a note that led to the humiliation of a girl, they commented on the girl...

...Brett Martin Dr. Jane Rago ENGL 2100 15 June 2014 Nomen Est Omen? The Roman expression nomen est omen roughly translates to “name is destiny.” This idea seems to suggest that people lack free will, and that we are subject to the label bestowed upon us at birth. Research has shown that names do indeed affect the way the world responds to people; our names impact the way we are socialized, in other words. Expectations for a guy named Bubba or a woman named Shaquita are different than they are for people with the names Winston and Hillary. In other words people make assumptions about others base on their names. In Alice Hoffman’s novel Local Girls, the narrator plays with this idea of the interplay of destiny, socialization, and free will, symbolized by the names she gives the central characters. The character whose name is the most apparently burdening is Gretel. A name that is unusual in 20th century United States society, this name is imbued with fairy-tale associations. In the famous German fairy-tale “Hansel and Gretel”, Gretel and her brother are abandoned by their parents, specifically an abusive stepmother, in the forest. In Local Girls, Gretel and her brother Jason are abused by their stepmother, who yells at them repeatedly, even calling Gretel a “little bitch” (49). In the fairy tale, the stepmother leaves the children in the woods because the resources at home are too sparse. Similarly, Gretel and Jason’s stepmother, Thea, tries to push her stepchildren out of...

...adolescence, youth, middle age and old age according to age and time. Every movement of creation is linked with time. One cannot grow paddy in a month nor can a child become an adult in a year. Everything is fixed to a time-frame. Time is a free force. It does not wait for anyone. It is commonly said that time and tide waits for no man. Time is money. A minute not usefully spent is an eternal loss. You can never get back the lost minute. One has to strike the iron when it is hot. The time flies and never returns. If you waste time it wastes you. ‘Time is the best medicine’, says Ovid. It is said that time heals all wounds and it even heals what reason cannot. All human beings are emotional. When negative emotions like fear, anger, envy and jealousy overtake them, they lose reason and act in haste leading to serious consequences. They may repent later, as emotions cool down. But the damage done is done and remains forever. Even that damage can heal with the passage of time. People involved may forget and forgive. That is the importance of time and its healing touch. Time is said to be a wise counselor. Passage of time allows an individual to grow. This growth gives experience. Experience helps...

...of Defense (DOD) base in the United States. The base has various elements under its control such as where I work in Foreign Military Sales (FMS), a storage center for ship components called Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and various other entities that support all kinds of weapon systems for the navy. Current Situation: I work in FMS which is funded by foreign countries, not the U.S. Government, for logistic support of weapon systems. The importance here is we will not be subject to any furloughs or cuts in pay or in any reduction of force as is the rest of DOD as a result of the sequester that is about to take place. The key point here is everyone else in DOD will lose 20% of their salary for 11-14 weeks. A lot of anger, jealousy and envy are therefore created. In 2012, the entire navy went to a one stop and shop, do all computer program called Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP). It was a total shock toboth Active Duty and civilian navy personnel, in how it performs supply, human resources and asset control. Numerous legacy systems were shut down even though the systems were still reliable and all employees knew how they worked. In other words, it was shoved down everyone’s throats with little time to educate current employees on its use. An individual would be hard pressed to find anyone who neither likes the system nor can utilize all its functions proficiently. There is an extreme amount of frustration with dealing with a...

...The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali Introduction, Commentaries, and Translation What are the Yoga Sutras and who is Patanjali? Over fifty different English translations of the Yoga Sutras are extant, standing as a human testament to how Universal Truth is celebrated in terms of a rich diversity. Rather than the common and external type of knowledge (emanating from book knowledge), the following translation and commentary are a result of an intimate familiarity and direct experience both with an authentic yogic tradition and with western culture, psychology, and language that has been refined, tested in fire, and integrated for over thirty five years of intense practice (sadhana). This work is dedicated toward revealing the universal message of authentic yoga that the sage, Patanjali, first wrote down approximately 2000 years ago. Patanjali is not the inventor of yoga, but rather yoga's most popularly known scribe. What has become known simply as the "Yoga Sutras" (sutra means thread) or almost equally as common, as the "Yoga Darshana" (the vision of Yoga), is actually a compendium of an ancient pre-existing oral yoga tradition consisting of both practical advice and theoretical context. The most accepted format of the Yoga Sutras consists of four chapters (called padas) written in the Sanskrit language approximately 2000 years ago in Northern India while utilizing the terminology of the time, i.e., Samkhya philosophical trappings. The dates ascribed to the Yoga Sutras...

ANDREW MORRIS andrew.morris@csuci.edu 805-437-2771 “The function of education, therefore, is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. But education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society. The most dangerous criminal may be the man gifted with reason, but with no morals…We must remember that intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character — that is the goal of true education. The complete education gives one not only power of concentration, but worthy objectives upon which to concentrate…”– Martin Luther King Jr, The Purpose of Education INTRODUCTION TO MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES: 1.
