An Analysis Of Beowulf And The Cowardly Cave, And...

Allie Dierschke Mrs. Saverance English 2322 10 December 2014 Nature of Characters in Themselves The outrageous characters in Beowulf have attracted an abundant amount of attention. The landscapes in which they live create the characters and make them complex. The location of the poem imitates the qualities which make them outrageous. To understand the prosperity of the characters it is beneficial to view the symbolic value of the setting and how the characters interact with one another throughout the story. There are four main plots in Beowulf that have significant value: Heorot, the sea, Grendel’s cave, and the Dragon’s lair. The poet of Beowulf makes it easy to visualize the scenery where the story takes place. He gives great details that allow the reader to feel as if they are in the act. The poet makes many references to pagan beliefs, but he also mentions Christian practices as well. The poet was a Christian, but wrote about pagan customs such as revenge, prominence, and destiny: â€Å"†¦it is evident that he was a Chr istian, a circumstance which has perhaps rendered his work less frequent in allusions to the customs and superstitions of his pagan ancestors†¦Ã¢â‚¬  (John Josias Conybeare). The locations that the author selects to describe do not serve as the entire scenes, but instead exact details of specific locations. He creates remote descriptions of these locations. Many of the locations are not physically possible. For example, Grendel’s cave, the water changes from dirty to

The Effects Of Resveratrol And Its Effect On The Risk Of...

ABSTRACT Resveratrol (3,4 ,5-trihydroxystilbene) is a naturally occurring phytochemical present in red wine, grapes, berries, chocolate and peanuts. Clinically, resveratrol has exhibited significant antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, and anti-cancer properties. Although resveratrol was first isolated in 1940, it was not until the last decade that it was recognised for its potential therapeutic role in reducing the risk of neurodegeneration, and Alzheimer s disease (AD) in particular. AD is the primary cause of progressive dementia. Resveratrol has demonstrated neuroprotective effects in several in vitro and in vivo models of AD. Apart from its potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory roles, evidence suggests that resveratrol also facilitates non-amyloidogenic breakdown of the amyloid precursor protein (APP), and promotes removal of neurotoxic amyloid beta (AÃŽ ²) peptides, a critical step in preventing and slowing down AD pathology. Resveratrol also reduces damage to neuronal cells via a variety of additional mechanisms, most notably is the activation of NAD+-dependent histone deacetylases enzymes, termed sirtuins. However in spite of the considerable advances in clarifying the mechanism of action of resveratrol, it is unlikely to be effective as monotherapy in AD due to its poor bioavailability, biotransformation, and requisite synergism with other dietary factors. This review summarizes the relevance of resveratrol in the pathophysiology of AD. It also highlights

Coach Others in Job Skills

Question: Discuss about the Coach Others in Job Skills. Answer: Introduction The assignment reflects on the participation of students in the coaching session. In the segment, each student selects an interesting topic. For instance, one pair of students selects a riveting topic that capitalizes on their coaching role. The topic is interesting and it focuses on the art of cooking pasta to al dente (how to cook pasta to al dente). For the first section, one category of student becomes trainee and the other category assumes the role of coach. In the next lap, the students swap their job roles and explore another topic in the hindsight. After the end of the coaching session, the students engage themselves in discssion. In the discussion, the students highlight and analyze the merits and demeits of their individual performances and share their experiences. Cooking method; How to cook pasta to al dente The coach (name) instructs the trainee (name) in the field of cooking. The coach asks the trainee to solidify the foundation of preparing the continental cusine. According to the coach, the trainee should cook the pasta as normal. After that, he has to add salt and water based on the cooking techniques. Some boxes of pasta contain the description of cooking al dente pasta. The coach advises that the trainee has to taste the pasta and comprehend the cooking texture of al dente pasta (Block, 2016). The coach asks the trainee to continuously tastes the pasta for every 3-5 mintues and checks whether the pasta exudes the crunchy essence. The variant of al dente pasta has the crispy consistency. The coach asks the trainee to drain the water and make it ready for the guests (Phillips, 2013) Class discussion: The performance of the coach was good, if not incredibly fantastic. He toned down his cooking erudition. At the same time, he used lucid way to teach al dente pasta cooking technique to the trainee (Wehman et al., 2014). The trainee made a nice initiative in learning the cooking technique from the coach. However, it is believed that both the coach and the trainee could improve their performance by adopting advanced procedure of cooking continental dishes (Parker et al., 2015). Computer study how to search internet with Google In the segment, the select pair of students should exchange their job roles. The coach (name) enlighten the trainee (name) on the matter of computer study. The coach asks the trainee to select a search engine. After typing the required searching thing, the trainee should press the enter key. The coach advises the trainee to use relevant phrases that describe the required topic. The coach asks the trainee to click the button search or press the enter key on the keyboard. In the meantime, the search engine completes the task. The coach asks the trainee to analyse the results (Hoven et al., 2016). Class discussion: The performance of the coach was admirable. He played an important role in imparting computer knowledge to the trainee. He used simple technique and taught the trainee about it (Grissom et al., 2015). However, both of them could enhance their performace by regurgitating the IT techniques. Conclusion The assignment gives an outline of the coaching session, espoused by both coach and trainee. At the same time, they examined and analysed the class performance after the conclusion of each learning-teaching performance. Reference Block, P. (2016).
