...Belligerent law enforcers show up to to disperse the mass brawl and take John, Bernard and Helmholtz to Mustapha Mond’s office. Here they discuss their differences to the rest of society such as Helmholtz’s interests in science, John’s passion for religion and Bernard’s attraction to pain and emotion. Bernard and Helmholtz leave for an island fit for unorthodox individuals, while John runs away to live a pure and wholesome life, to his standards. He finds an old lighthouse and begins to live the simplistic lifestyle he believes that he deserves, where his days mostly consist of religious practices and self torture in attempts to clean himself from the experiences he encountered in the civilized world. What he didn’t know was that he was being filmed and when the ‘feelie’ of his behavior is released, intrigued and stupefied spectators rush to the Savage’s door to inquire about his peculiar ways. John gets swept up in the frenzy and ends up with soma in his system. When he wakes the next morning he recognises what he had done and he decides that the only way to redeem himself is to end his own...

What is the test that determines whether someone has met that test in law? The Concept: A Reasonable person is a hypothetical person who exercises qualities of attention, knowledge, intelligence, and judgment that society requires of its members for the protection of their own interest and the interests of others. Defining "Reasonable" Being "reasonable" means having the faculty of reason, acting rationally governed by reason. The behavior can be called "reasonable" if the activities can be valued as fair, just, or equitable. The person must be honest, moderate, sane, sensible, and tolerable. "Reasonable" implies a certain standard of valuation. It is a standard for guiding conduct. Reasonable Person This phrase is a personification of the description of "reasonable". Thus, the "reasonable man or person" can be understood as a phrase used to denote a suppositional person who exercises those mentioned qualities which society demands as stated above. Applying the Reasonable Person Standard: The reasonable person does not always appear in the Process of evaluating human behavior. There are several judicial patterns demanding a judgment of reasonableness without expressly mentioning the reasonable man as a personification, such as: reasonable aids, care, diligence, doubt, compensation, (market) value...

...“Flotsam and Jetsam” ___________________________________________ The short “Flotsam and Jetsam” is written by Alan Bissett in 2012. Alan Bissett, born in 1975 is a Scottish writer, and the short story appeared in the collection “Elsewhere: There” in 2012. The story is written in third person, and the narrator is omniscient. The characters are both described directly and indirectly by what they say, or how they act, because some of the characters has hidden agendas. The main theme in the story is the message to the reader, and the setting which is in Tanzania, and the social environment. The short story takes place in the beautiful East Africa, Tanzania in recent times. The short story starts in media res, which is characteristic for short stories. In the story we are introduced to Kate, which is the main character, and the events are presented in chronological order. Kate is a young girl from Scotland, and she is enjoying some time alone at the beaches in Tanzania. Away from all the clatter in Scotland, Kate are relaxing at a ship, called ‘dhow’. “No bus of Xeroxed minds scanning the Metro. No gloomy meetings at which the main word intoned was “cuts””. We get an impression of Kate as a girl who has been looking forward to this trip, and to relax with a lots of books. “She’d packed big novels that needed time, space and a hammock to absorb”. But it seems to be a different trip, then she had imagined, and expected in some ways. Kate associates with the locals from Tanzania...

...Brave New World written by Aldous Huxley, the theme of happiness being incompatible with truth resurfaces with greater detail through the World State’s use of censorship. For instance, one of the world controllers, Mustapha Mond is revealed to be monitoring scientific papers before allowing it to be published. Through further discussion between John the savage and Mustapha, the true goal of censorship is exposed as a ploy to protect the public’s happiness by keeping them ignorant of the truth. To keep the equilibrium of society, there are two types of truths that Mustapha and the government censor. One of the truths is the human truth, which is expressed through emotions such as love, sadness and friendship. The other truth is the scientific truth that can be expressed through the beauty of logical conclusions and the passion of scientists....

...views on nobility are similar to those of Shakespeare, as he believes nobility should be based on ones actions. In King Lear Shakespeare repeatedly refers to Burgundy as “noble Burgundy” (1.1.223). He does this in order to show the irony in calling him noble as Burgundy is noble by birth, but not by action. This is obvious when Burgundy dismisses the idea of marrying Cordelia, once Lear removes her dowry, which in his eyes makes her worthless while in the eyes of France her worth does not change. Huxley uses the same motif to emphasize that there is a lack of nobility in the World State. In Kazi 2 Brave New World John Savage is one of the only people in the World State who has a proper understanding of what nobility is. While Mustapha Mond believes that “civilization has absolutely no need of nobility” (237), John Savage believes the opposite. John refers to the World State as a “nightmare” (210) and comments on the “possibility of transforming” (210) it...

...warning others of the negative impacts of central governmental control. World War was portrayed as a time of loss and grief with the death if millions of young soldiers, where destruction from advancement in technology caused composers to predict the future where technology could adversely affect society to a great extent, where individuals emotions are suppressed. After World War I, extravagant spending stimulated composers to discuss ideas of what type of future capitalist ideals could create. Within the community, there is a lack of empathy to highlight that education and culture are not part of their world. This idea challenges Huxley’s belief of culture and education as an important part of societal development. By keeping them ignorant, Mustapha Mond maintains power, which is what Huxley attempts to convey as a warning to individuals of the power of central institutions. The moral and intellectual value of education is juxtaposed with the immoral behaviour of the ‘feelies’. Further, Mond refuses to publish ‘A NEW THEORY of...

...Soma in Brave New World The drug soma in Brave New World is a symbol of the use of instant gratification to control the World State's society. "Euphoric, narcotic, pleasantly hallucinant" is how Mustapha Mond describes soma. It's possibly the best tool the government has for controlling its population. It sedates, calms, and mainly distracts the citizen from the horrific state of enslavement that they live in. There's always soma to calm your anger, to reconcile you with one another, or to make you patient and forgiving. Everyone is trapped by happiness, which is a tough entrapment to break away from. Through the government's use of soma to control the population, Linda's excessive abuse of the drug, and John's attempt at stopping the drug, Huxley attempts to reveal how we allow the individual within us to be overcome by anything that will guarantee us pleasant feelings. Therefore, we sense a superficial happiness. The novel also compares religion with soma. It argues that Christianity functions the same way as soma, allowing the citizens to be controlled. Mustapha claims that soma is "Christianity without the tears." It offers its followers comfort, but at the expense of individuality. Soma clouds reality, replacing it with happy hallucinations. Soma is what the society uses to keep themselves balanced. Religion functions similarly because people use it as a source to give their life meaning. They refer to it to maintain order and function through life's obstacles. It acts...

...THE fundamentalist Islamic sect, Jama’atu Ahlissunnah Lidda’awati Wal-Jihad, otherwise known as Boko Haram, on Tuesday in a statement claimed responsibility for the mass killings in Plateau State at the weekend. More than 100 persons were reportedly killed in attacks on three communities in the Barkin Ladi and Riyom local government areas of the state on Saturday and Sunday. The sect “thanked God for the success of the attacks” and vowed that there was no going back on the jihad (Holy War) it had launched against Christians and the government. It also asked “Christians in Nigeria to accept Islam” as a condition for a ceasefire. It described as a “new lie” claims by the new National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, that he has an access for a dialogue with its leaders. The statement Full (and unedited) text of the Boko Haram statement, issued by its famous spokesman, Abu Qaqa, and posted on SaharaReporters on Tuesday, reads, “The Jama’atu Ahlissunnah Lidda’awati Wal-Jihad, is grateful to Almighty God and hereby makes it known to the world of our success and attack on Barkin Ladi and Riyom in Plateau State on Christians, security agencies and members of National Assembly. “Like we said earlier, Christians in Nigeria should accept Islam, that is true religion, or they will never have peace.
