...Leonardo”, he claims “Leonardo insisted again and again that the 'art', or skill, of painting must be supported by the painter's 'science', or sound knowledge of living forms, by his intellectual understanding of their intrinsic nature and underlying principles” (Capra 34). In his notebooks, the main subject is sketches, with notes and a short writing on each. While Leonardo began his dissections for the purpose of art, his study of the human form did not end there. Methods of his analysis include dissection, wax castings, models, and sketches: his subsequent findings are even more diverse. Leonardo was truly a pioneer in anatomical studies. In order to better understand the body, Leonardo looked at what made up the body, how it moved. The initial purpose of his anatomical studies and dissections was to more accurately depict movement, gestures, and expressions in his paintings (Capka). This led to numerous sketches of human limbs, with skin and without, and through successive layers of musculature. One of his sketches depicts a comparison of a human leg to a horse's leg, both a skeletal sketch and an anatomically correct depiction of each: historically, this is the first account of comparative anatomy. Leonardo based his drawings and findings on systematic observation: “He gained precise knowledge by dissecting more than 30 cadavers – until at last Pope Leo X barred him from the mortuary in Rome” (Hale). Of the dissections, DaVinci focused more on the eye and optical nerves earlier...

...Alejandro Almonte Percy Haynes English 201 September 27, 2014 “A Question of Motive in The Tell Tale Heart” Why did the man in The Tell Tale Heart kill the old man? That is the question that Poe asks you to ponder in his story yet he gives us scant clues as to the answer. The motive eludes us even as the murderer is guilted into confessing by his own mind and then goes on to thoroughly detail his gruesome deed. The murderer will be referred to as “he” although his sex is never revealed, he refers to himself as a “madman” within this first person narrative (Shen, 287). This piece is tightly written, short to read and it builds at a frantic and hurried pace and then climaxes abruptly. This leaves the reader craving more details and to wishing confirm the man’s motives. Poe’s story consists of the author’s unique ability to create grotesque inventiveness and superb plot construction (Shen, 275). Some interpret the old man as the father of the murderer and his act a release of built up tension and resentment toward him (DeBord, 1). There appears to be no familial bond in the heart of the man when describing the old man, he also lacks the rage that one would expect if the act were resentment fueled murder. Instead the old man seems to be a fond acquaintance of our murderer, because they reside within the same home it can be hypothesized that one or the other is simply a boarder in the other’s home. There is no malice, no greed and no disdain to motivate him, he even...

...model using ANCOVA data analytical approach. By doing this data analysis project, you will understand a new quantitative research model when randomized sampling is not a choice. Specifically, you will develop analytical skills to use covariate to control for or partial out effects of pre-existing differences carried by sampling. To complete the assessment, answer each question, providing IBM SPSS analysis when necessary to support your answer. For this assignment, use the small batch of data provided by Warner's textbook on page 724. These are hypothetical data. We will imagine that a three-group quasi-experimental study was done to compare the effects of three treatments on the aggressive behavior of male children. Xc, the covariate, is a pretest measure of aggressiveness: the number of aggressive behaviors emitted by each child when the child is first placed in a neutral playroom situation. This measure was done prior to exposure to the treatment. Children could not be randomly assigned to treatment groups, so the groups did not start out exactly equivalent on aggressiveness. The dependent variable, Y, is a posttest measure: the number of aggressive behaviors emitted by each child after exposure to one of the three treatments. Treatment A consisted of three different films. The A1 group saw a cartoon animal behaving aggressively. The A2 group saw a human female model behaving aggressively. The A3group saw a human male model behaving aggressively. The question is whether these...

...Running Head: Case Study Analysis Paper 2: A Tale of Two Coaches Case Study Analysis Paper 2: A Tale of Two Coaches Harry A. Gkornean Grand Canyon University: LRD 600-0500: Leadership Styles and Development Dr. Terri Trent September 2, 2015 “Coach K: A Matter of the Heart” & "Coach Knight: A Will to Win” Overview This paper provides a leadership styles and skills analysis of two cases that separately discussed the professional careers of two leaders involved in similar kinds of activities. It presents two coaches – Coach K and Coach Knight - as achievers but distinguishes them in terms of the methodology used. This paper recognizes similar leadership attributes of these two leaders and distinguishes one from another in terms of their leadership style. It identifies Coach K more as a leader than Coach Knight whose attributes were more managerial. Leadership Skills Coach K was an efficient and successful leader who demonstrated excellent leadership skills as he led the Duke Basketball Team to becoming one of the most successful college basketball teams in America’s history (DeLacey, Perlow & Snook, 2005). His success can be attributed to the following leadership skills: competencies, individual attributes, and leadership outcomes, technical, human and conceptual skills. Similarly, Coach Knight was a very successful basketball coach at Indiana University and Texas Tech. According to DeLacey, Perlow & Snook (2005), he earned for himself one of the most enviable...

...selection of subjects in addition to ethical practice and procedure in the area of human research are outlined. The Belmont Report attempts to summarize the basic ethical principles identified by the National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research (Belmont Report, 1979). In particular I would like to discuss the standards for informed consent, assessment of risk and benefits, and selection of test subjects drawn out by the Belmont Report. These three areas of interest are said to be the applications of the general principles of research. Informed consent is broken down into three checkpoints: information, comprehension, and voluntariness. Assessment of Risks and Benefits has two similar components: identifying the nature and scope of the risks and benefits, and then the systematic assessment. Then there is the selection of subjects which is just an evaluation of the appropriateness of a group used in a research study. I will discuss these concepts as they apply to the infamous artificial heart case study. Informed consent is the application of the general principle of respect for persons. Remember, respect for persons requires that subjects be given the opportunity to choose what will or will not happen to them (Belmont Report, 1979). The first tier in the analysis of the consent process is distribution of information. When using human subjects to conduct a study, the participants must be provided with all of the necessary...

...Analysis of ”The Rental Heart” The Rental Heart is a story about heartbreak and having to cope with it afterwards. In this story however, it is possible to return the shattered heart and replace it with a new one. In a sense, you avoid the heartbreak and move on without the emotional scarring you endure from getting your heart broken. The story is set in a utopian world where it is possible to rent a mechanical heart thus not having to deal with any real emotions, particularly heartbreak. Starting with a four-year-old relationship ending and a corporeal heart shattered, we follow the love life of the narrator over many years until he/she finally, several rental hearts later, finds someone to love wholeheartedly again. The heart in this story is described as a mechanical one: a box where all emotions and memories of a relationship are stored until you replace it with a new one. Words such as, “sleeker”, “smaller” and “smooth” are used to describe the hearts. In the world we live in today, words such as those are usually used to describe a smartphone or a fancy car. The heart is therefore materialistic, something that can be bought and, when you are done using it, thrown away like garbage. The interesting part is that in real life, the heart does not possess any emotions or control how we feel about another human being. It is all in our heads: memories, feelings, pictures etc. are all stored in our brain. The heart is just a muscle that pumps blood around in our body to keep...

...Archetypal Analysis: How the Grinch Stole Christmas The school of criticism that best interprets Dr. Suess’ “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” is an archetypal analysis. The author frequently follows recurring symbols and themes found in numerous types of literature. Using several universal symbols, images, and character types, Dr. Suess has definitely created a poem filled with archetypal images and story patterns. Generally, “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” follows the archetypal pattern in which the main character, the Grinch, leaves his home on a quest – specifically, to stop Christmas from coming in Whoville. During this journey, being in itself a popular story line in literature, the Grinch encounters several common archetypes that reflect particular actions or situations that represent human nature. “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” is an obvious example of “Good versus Evil.” The “Who’s down in Whoville liked Christmas a lot,” (1); a happy, family-oriented town of individuals who had no notion of evil in their minds is distinguished as something “good”. However, “the Grinch hated Christmas”(2) and succeeds in stealing Christmas from the guiltless Who-families, distinguishing himself as “evil.” Additionally, the evil Grinch encounters Little Cindy-Lou Who, who asks him, “’Santy Claus, why,/Why are you taking our Christmas tree?” (74, 75) Her innocence reflects yet another archetypal character. She may also be considered a hero, as she predominantly exhibits goodness...

...Abstract – Atherosclerotic plaque is the major cause of coronary heart artery diseases. Heart artery plaque layer analysis is one of the most important and challenging problem, which can be determined by using Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) Cross Sectional images, which is an excellent ultrasound study system for extracting and to easily identifying the plaque layer by using the shape parameter measurements. This paper presents and elucidates the new approach to find out the coronary artery plaque with the help of the artery cross sectional layers determination, which are adventitia, media, intima and lumen layers. This system measures the layer’s performance to make the clear way to identifying the plaque layer, which proposes a new method...

...In order for an individual to function, the major organs of the human body are required to participate in some sort of systematic interplay. From the body as a whole, to the individual organs, they themselves exhibit an assortment of organised interactions. This is due to the fact that the organs also comprise multiple components to their structure. The heart is one such system (Cannell, Crossman and Soeller, 2006). Comprising of various muscles, nerves and specialised fibres, it functions as a unit, naturally instructed by innate biological electricity (Thaler, 2012). Hence the heart is commonly referred to as an electrical syncytium. By following the electrical activity of the heart, cardiac patterns can be assessed under given conditions and problems or abnormalities diagnosed. This is possible by performing an electrocardiogram (ECG)....

...Write a Critical Literary Analysis Essay When writing a literary analysis essay, your main objective is not to write a simple summary. Rather, your goal is to write an essay that discusses your interpretation and critique of the literature. There are a few general guidelines you should keep in mind when writing a literary analysis essay. Remember, there often is no right or wrong answer – what really matters is proving your thesis with evidence! One tip you should keep in mind while writing a literary analysis essay is that you should always write in the present tense and never in the past tense. For example, you might write “In George Orwell’s ‘Animal Farm,’ the animals take over the farm and develop their own independent society” rather than “In George Orwell’s ‘Animal Farm,’ the animals took over the farm and developed their own independent society.” Another tip is you should also avoid putting yourself into the literary analysis. This means you should write in the third person and never use the words “I” or “you.” There may be exceptions to this rule, however, depending upon your instructor. In fact, some will request a more informal literary analysis that will include the usage of these words. When in doubt, however, it is safer to use the third person. Since literary analysis essays are not meant to simply be a book review or summary of the book, you should not retell the story in your essay. Rather, you need to form a thesis about the piece of literature and then...
