"All I Know Is What I Read In The Papers" - Will Rogers
.... "An election is like a one day sale…the product (candidate) in a sale
(campaign) is only available a few hours on one day".(2)
The main goal one hopes to achieve by advertising something is to make
it marketable so people will purchase it. Since what a politician hopes to
ultimately do is persuade people to vote for, or buy, their political platform,
they would be foolish to not take advantage of the captive and passive audience
of the advertising mass media. Unfortunately politicians .....

Broadcasting, Programming, And The Audience
.... start to
broadcast soaps. By show soaps, it would capture a market of 2600 viewers. All
viewers would watch because soaps is their first choice or it is their second
choice but their first is not available.
The FCC then offers a license to station B. After examining the audience
sizes, stations B also starts to show soaps. By programming to this audience, it
splits the soaps market with station A and both of them have 1300 viewers.
Station B does not pick another programming because no othe .....

The Print Media Is Less Effective Than Other Media Types
.... you are anxious for the inside scoop.
Television, on the other hand, is available on a daily basis, and it can be
turned on at any. Satellite owners have an even greater advantage, they can find
global news and have a greater number of choices such as which news program to
watch. Also, if a person is illiterate or a poor reader, it is quite obvious
that they will choose television over a newspaper. Television is a much easier
alternative than obtaining news through print.
A third and very important reason .....

what the journalist thinks is important or what the journalist thinks the
audience thinks is important" (Postman, 14).
The Toronto Sun focuses on the audience that yearns for entertainment
and adjuts its word selection and choice of articles to accommodate this need
for entertainment. The glitz and glamour of today's celebrities provide a
fantasy world in which the reader can escape. The Toronto Sun leaves no stone
uncovered as it stays on top of .....

Movie: The Caine Mutiny - Evaluating The Performance Of A Government
.... to be followed upon and consented to. If a government
is fulfilling its basic functions, then it is properly following the
constitution, but if it isn't ensuing the constitution, then the fundamental
purposes aren't being achieved. Within the constitution, there is power granted
to impeach the leader if he/she is not implementing their primary services. In
the movie, we see captain Queeg as one who is incompetent of achieving his job
as the leader. Captain Queeg can be easily compared with Char .....

The Importance Of The Press

the paper, which will look at the involvement of the press during revolutionary
times in more specific terms. The French revolution of 1789 will be used as a
backdrop for this inquiry.
There are many different types of political movements, and accordingly
there are many different reasons for these movements to occur. Value-oriented
and norm-oriented movements deal with matters of social and political concern,

Gothic

the 12th and 13th centuries, the major innovations of Gothic architecture took
place.2
The supernatural character of medieval religious architecture was given
a special form in the Gothic church. "Medieval man considered himself but an
imperfect refraction of Divine Light of God, Whose Temple stood on earth,
according to the text of the dedication ritual, stood for the Heavenly City of
Jerusalem."3 The Gothic interpretation of this point .....

chiropractor also says that the way he sees it, "If you're frightened of dieing
and you keep trying to hold on you'll see devils tearing your life away. If
you've made your peace then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the
earth." The film Jacob's Ladder uses the character of Jacob Singer to

Jewish Art

helped her to become such a good artist
Her focus was mainly on very well known Jewish objects. Some of these
include Menorahs, Sadaka boxes, and Mezuzahs. These where very evident part of
her slide show. All of them were very obscure and odd looking but each told a
storyf which only she knew. At first glance they were not so great but after her
explanation they became beautiful.
Her idea of creating new rituals for our religion through art really

The Return Of The Jedi

the religion, and offer some suggestions as to what we can expect from Jediism
in the future.
I. The Religion
To examine the future of religion as it relates to society, one must
first have an idea of the tenets and beliefs on which the religion is based.
Jediism is based solely on belief in the "force", a "Universal energy field that
surrounds us and permeates us". (O. Kenobi, SW) Stark and Bainbridge make the
point that any religion based on magic or magic-like rituals is fated to die .....

Oedipus: Fates
.... to thwart fate and the will of the
divine.. Within the principle of determinism, this outright contention to divine
mandate is blasphemous and considered sin. This ideal itself, and the whole
concept of determinism, is quite common in the workings of Greek and Classical
literature. A manifest example of this was the infamous Oedipus of The Theban
Plays, a man who tried to defy fate, and therefore sinned.
The logic of Oedipus' transgression is actually quite obvious, and
Oedipus' father, King Laius .....

Cassius first suggested that they should kill Mark Antony, which they should of,
but the noble Brutus said “Our course will seem to bloody.” That was not his
only mistake with Mark Antony he also let him speak at Caesar funeral. He was
warned by Cassius, but Brutus ignored him as usual. When Mark Antony spoke he

Medea's Revenge
.... or choose a husband, and had to be represented by men in all legal
proceedings. In some ways, these Greek women were almost like slaves. There is
a definite relationship between this subordination of women and what transpires
in the play. Jason decides that he wants to divorce Medea and marry the
princess of Corinth, casting Medea aside as if they had never been married.
This sort of activity was acceptable by Greek standards, and shows the
subordinate status of the woman, who had no say in any m .....

Modern Vs. Ancient
.... example, these three plays use the same motifs in
their main themes, in fact they all use pretty much the same themes, and have
the same morals. Just like plays passed on from generation to generation, modern
plays also have morals in them, and many of those morals are similar. For
example, the theme of Antigone and Oedipus was that we should listen to others,
and we shouldn't think that we are always right, because there are always people
who know more than we do. The theme from The Effects of Gamma Rays .....

Oedipus Rex: Tragedy Of Fate

had a servant bring him to the forest and leave him for dead. The servant does
not want to carry out this deed and therefore "saves his life" by handing the
baby to someone else, so that he can be raised in another city. Further, a
drunken man in a tavern tells Oedipus about the prophecy, so he runs home to
question his parents about his fate. Instead of telling him the truth, they
give him the impression that they are in fact his biological parents.
The idea that must be .....
