Annotated Bibliography for Their Eyes Were Watching God

Curren, Erik. "Should Their Eyes Have Been Watching God? Hurston's Use of Religious Experience and Gothic Horror." African American Review, Vol. 29, Iss. 1 (1995), 17-25. An exploration of the novel that rebuts and contrasts with earlier analyses that call Their Eyes an "affirmative quest" story. Curren's thesis is that these analyses in fact discount the entire final third of the book which is rife with horror, violence and tragedy, and asserts that what Hurston has done is not so much write an "affirmative quest" of the African folklore experience but tell a story that switches genres from "quest" to gothic horror. He then builds a methodical case for Hurston's deliberate intent to use gothic horror and her reasons for doing so-primarily, an anti-religious viewpoint that in this work is a fundamental underpinning of both gothic horror in general and its uses here. She….

Journal of port Behavior, 18(3), 183

The Journal of ports Behavior is a peer-reviewed journal focused upon research in sports psychology and its articles are not directed towards a popular audience. According to Cox & Yoo (1995) in this early study of the sports psychology and football, not only do different players of different sports share distinct psychological features: even within the sport of football, a players' position and his or her personality dimensions can often be quite unique. The authors begin with a literature review of previous studies which used the Myers-Briggs Type Inventory (MBTI) and yielded the finding that "successful linemen were more organized, predictable, and practical than successful backfield players. uccessful defensive backs were reported to be decidedly more introverted than other….

Case, Bette. (1996). Breathing AIR into adult learning. Journal of Continuing Education in Nursing, 27(4), 148-158.

Bette Case reviews an organizational scheme for adult learning called 'AIR', short for active involvement, individual differences, and relevance and motivation. Of the three learning strategies, active involvement is given the most attention. Active involvement seems to capture any learning technique that empowers the students and moves beyond the traditional didactic format for communicating knowledge and skills. The central thesis of active involvement seems to be teaching students how to be self-directed in the learning process. Students should be encouraged to take part in defining the competency objectives, choosing the learning method, and determining the evaluation criteria. Linear lessons plans could also be dispensed with and replaced with collaborative mind maps or matrices. A large number of examples and suggestions are provided to move the students out from behind the desk….

Performance Management Strategies Used by Organizations in the Private and Public Sectors
Having already established the importance of performance management to an organization's overall strategy, it makes sense to use the final project to gain insight into the specific strategies used by organizations in executing their performance management plans. Rather than take a general approach, however, the researcher will focus on comparing the PM strategies used by profit-motivated organizations with those used by their counterparts in public agencies. There has been concern that organizations in the public sector do not pay a lot of emphasis to the aspect of performance management and that, hence, most public sector employees exhibit low levels of motivation and take their jobs as nothing more than just a job. This low motivation translates to time-wasting, repetitive work, unmet targets, and poor service delivery - all of which come back to haunt the taxpayer in the….

Beowulf: A dual-language edition. (1977). NY: Doubleday. One of the most striking examples of literature to come out of the Dark Ages was Beowulf, created by an anonymous Anglo-Saxon poet and considered by many scholars to be the most important work of its time. There is no official date to the work, but it has been traced to somewhere between the 8th and the early 11th Century. The work is important because of its length and quality, but also because of the tale it tells and how it brought a strong focus to literature and art both in the Dark Ages and after the country emerged from that time period. It focuses on Beowulf's defeat of Grendel, a monster that is terrorizing the King of the Danes. As the main character, Beowulf travels a great distance to prove himself as a hero by slaying Grendel. As he….

Mercer, like Bowen, focuses upon potentially negative social forces that could potentially impact the critical relationship at the heart of the theory. But once again, these potential negatives are rooted to some extent in biological as well as social and psychological factors. "Young maternal age and immaturity, socioeconomic status" are all potential red flags particularly since they have been shown to reduce the likelihood that the mother will breastfeed and 'bond' with the child in a meaningful fashion (Husmillo 2013: 47). A lack of appropriate mother-child bonding is seen as having significant psychological consequences for the baby over the course of its existence, as well as the fact that a failure to breastfeed and to reinforce trust and security for the child can result in compromised long-term health and a failure to thrive.
Mercer's theory is thus aimed to support a particular type of wellness promotion for the children involved.….

Obesity
Annotated ibliography for Obesity in Today's Australian Culture and Society

While there are many challenges faced by societies today, one of the major health challenges that every society is facing is that of Obesity. People fail to realize that obesity is a serious problem. To understand what makes obesity a serious problem, it is important to the actual meaning of obesity. While some people refer to obesity as being fat, it is important to know that obesity actually means crossing a body mass index greater than that define for an overweight person. eing obese is basically an indicator that you have entered the red zone of health. Obesity has direct and indirect implications on overall health of an obese person.

Monger's review will help me analyze Pan's Labyrinth from the perspective of music and sound. It will help me show how Pan's Labyrinth would be a very different movie, were it not for the director's skillful use of Navarette's music.

Newitz, Annalee. "Pan's Labyrinth - Can Fantasies Rescue Us from Fascism?"

Wired Blog Network. 7 February 2007

Newitz's politically motivated analysis of Pan's Labyrinth asks a provoking question: Can fantasy serve as a form of political protest? Given that we currently live in a media-saturated universe that gives rise to all sorts of outlandish fantasies about the nature of reality, and the fact that the threat of fascism seems to loom everywhere - many nations around the world are ruled by authoritarian dictators - this point-of-view seems vital when discussing such a highly allegorical film as Pan's Labyrinth.

English Villainies Discovered by Lantern and Candlelight by Thomas Dekker

Benbow, R. ark. "Thomas Dekker and Some Cures for the 'City Gout.'" The Yearbook of English Studies 5, (1975): 52-69

Article Stable URL: http://www.jstor.org/stable/3507171

Thomas Dekker called debt the 'city gout.' His observations in debtor's prison are recorded in his work English Villainies Discovered by Lantern and Candlelight. Dekker described the prisoners using a series of complex metaphors, spanning from caged animals to diseases of the body politic. His tone fuses mixture of pity and revulsion. Of justices who condemn the prisoners, he said: "the sickman sends to his doctor, the wounded man to his surgeon: you [the JPs] are both, and the common-wealth….

The liberties that the author took with the English language, however, are very likely indicative of liberties taken with the information presented in the article itself. The claim, for instance, that "midwives were...the first holistic practitioners of the past" is highly suspect. Leaving aside the elusive meaning of being the "first of the past" in something (we will assume the author simply meant, "the first"), it appears as though the author is trying to say that midwives were the first known practitioners of natural medicine, or perhaps of complimentary nature- and inquiry-based practices. This claim might be true, though given the knowledge of very ancient medical practices it seems unlikely, but the author does not provide any citation or even a scrap of supporting evidence or comparison to establish this idea. The claim is made, and then the paragraph moves on. This is not the way that solid research or….

"The evolution Will Be Shared: Social Media and Innovation."

esearch Technology Management, Vol. 54, No. 1; (2011): 64-

66.

esearch Technology Management is a professional journal intended for consumption by managers of research, development, and technology implementation. This article details the manner in which social media portals such as Twitter, FaceBook, and LinkedIn have emerged as much more than purely "social" media. Today, those communications media have become widely used by professionals in various different capacities and by professional organizations in ways that are much broader than ever imagined initially.

Employees of business organizations typically utilize social media platforms to learn about work-related topics and to publish work-related material of interest to other professionals in similar areas. According to the article, social media are also readily capable of being used to generate fast-growing communities centered around specific causes and interests, such as was the case in connection with the successful presidential election campaign of….
