While we were excavating the palace of Knossos we found many different and interesting artifacts. Some of them included “The Fresco of the leaping bull”, “The fresco of the three women”, and “The Dolphin Fresco”. All of these Artifacts were based on natural elements of the world which made them all important. On The Fresco of the leaping bull the bull was the subject worship. It has been suggested bulls may have had some religious significance, the bull compared to the human leaper may give an idea of the Minoans power of the animals. The fresco of the three women to me kind says that those three women are superior and that relates to the social structure that goddesses are superior so I kinda feel like they are some type of goddess. The Dolphin
In Pink Sheep’s house, Homie Dolphin was playing video games and eating burritos and Mountain Dew. When these two guys were too focused on the games a hater broke in the house and took their supplies to burritos and Mountain Dew. On his way out he took Homie Dolphin’s gold necklace worth a trillion dollars.
There are five teams that are worthy of being called the greatest team in NFL history: the 1972 Miami Dolphins, the 1978 Pittsburgh Steelers, the 1984 San Francisco 49’ers, the 2007 Patriots, however the 1985 Chicago Bears stand out amongst the crowd because of their outrageous defense, popularity amongst the NFL fans, and their roster that was filled with Hall of Fame talent. According to the 1985 Chicago Bears Statistics & Players (2017), the team finished with a season record of 15-1. News analyst Tony Andracki (2016) stated that, “The 1985 Bears turned in one of the most dominant seasons in American Sports” (p.1).
The Dolphins are off to a rough start as they begin the season 0-3. Trying to build a better reputation, the team has been working hard to improve their skills and hopefully come out with a few wins this year. So far nothing consequential has been seen from Dana as they are yet to find the element that will take their team to victory.
It appears other minute details of the marble statue of Aphrodite have been damaged or lost, for example, the heat and base of her feet. Nonetheless, one can certify it is the statue of Aphrodite because of some of the figures that have been placed at her side. The characters beside the statue appear to represent icons commonly linked to Aphrodite. The dolphin symbolizes the birth of the goddess from the sea, and maybe that’s why people believed that she controlled animal fertility. Since the nose has broken off, it appears that the head is a mystery as to its finer and greater details.
Bottlenose Dolphins are a very interesting animal. They have a fusiform (Spindle shaped) body that allows them to move quickly in the water. Because of the Dolphins’ shape they have bilateral symmetry. They also have a dorsal fin, flippers, and a fluke. However, Bottlenose Dolphins do not have ears on the outside of their bodies, hair, or hind limbs. The color of this type of dolphin is usually a light grey color to a black. Their stomach is white and sometimes has a pink hue. One physical adaptation these dolphins have is a telescoped skull. The skull is like this because it allows them to breathe more easily while swimming. Bottlenose Dolphins also have blubber that they use as insulation and vascular shunts that allow them to have cooling for certain types of organs and tissues in their bodies. Finally, Bottlenose Dolphins have sharp teeth that let them grasp onto their prey, so their tongue can push the prey down the dolphin’s throat. Bottlenose Dolphins have a range mass of 260 to 500kg which is 572.69 to 1101.32 in pounds. The average mass of the Bottlenose Dolphin is 400kg. Their average mass in pounds is 881.06.
Part 2: The Venus figurines could have been made to express the way the Catalhuyuk people viewed women. Considering how plentiful the figurines are, historians can infer that women were most likely worshipped. Women in the Catalhuyuk civilization could have been worshipped for many reasons. They were capable of pregnancy which people may have thought connected them to the earth. If they had a direct connection to the earth, they were goddesses or special beings which would have be celebrated and praised. Because religion played such a huge part in their everyday lives, perhaps the people created the figurines to call upon the earth goddesses for rain, crops, or protection from illness. Looking
I am like a Bottlenose Dolphin. In nature, Bottlenose Dolphins are known for their advance thought processing, communication skills, sense of curiosity, and open minds. Like a Bottlenose Dolphin, I have all the same attributes that make me a distinct student and individual. To the advanced mind of a Bottlenose Dolphin, the ocean is its domain that it can mature in and mold in the way it pleases. For me, the entire earth is my domain to mature in and to mold. The unique way I want to shape the future of the world is by becoming a biomedical engineer and using what I have learned during my studies to change the world of biomedicine. I will use my dolphin like attributes to aid me in reaching my goal. Once I become a biomedical engineer I will surely have accomplished my goal in life and hopefully will be well on my way to changing others way of life..
Nike of Samothrace is a sculpture from 190 BCE, first found on Samothrace, a Greek island, in 1863. This statue is a female figure with wings, wearing a flowing gown. It’s said to represent Nike, the Greek Goddess of Victory, and her winning in battle. It shows various elements of the Hellenistic period, such as the use of space and dimension. The Snake Goddess is a 1600 BCE figurine found in 1903, in Knossos, Crete by the British archaeologist Arthur Evans. It’s made of Faience, a glass-like material, and it shows a large breasted women whose holding two snakes on each of her hands supporting a feline-like figure on her head, and it’s wearing what seems to be a long layered skirt with a metal looking accessory or girdle on her waist. The biggest similarity between these two sculptures is that both represent femininity through this new sensual female form as well as strength, and both sculptures are
According to Madicaid.gov (2016), “Managed Care is a health care delivery system organized to manage cost, utilization, and quality. Medicaid managed care provides for the delivery of Medicaid health benefits and additional services through contracted arrangements between state Medicaid agencies and managed care organizations (MCOs) that accept a set per member per month (capitation) payment for these services.”
The Spinner dolphin is a dolphin that is found in offshore tropical waters around the world. It is famous for its acrobatic displays in which it spins along its longitudinal axis as it leaps through the air. That is where the name “Spinner” comes from. It is a family member of the Delphinidae of toothed whales. There are 4 subspecies of the Spinner dolphin. But, the Gray’s Spinner dolphin is most common.
Women acted as priestesses, made official decisions in and amongst the community, and were responsible for organizing commune functions (Witcombe 10). These responsibilities and duties were not often jobs of men in Minoan civilization, “Moreover men are rarely seen in commanding positions, despite attempts to identify them in such positions” (Witcombe 10). It is suggested that the reason why women played such a huge role in Minoan civilization was due to the fact that in Minoan religion they worshiped goddesses and they were greatly influenced by them. It is believed that The Snake Goddess was an important figure in Crete at this time, and was worshiped along side of the Huntress, and The Mountain Mother. Mainly focusing on The Snake Goddess she represented a strong, powerful female deity, who overall acted as an icon for women. The influence The Snake Goddess had on women was substantial. Women became more than just members of the community, and gained a place in society. It was no longer a man’s world but a world run by women. Even ancient frescoes and other forms of Minoan artwork provide evidence of women being more vital than men, because depictions of women were more common than men (Witcombe 10). After examining women’s key roles in Minoan civilization it becomes apparent that The Snake Goddess influenced women in Crete in many different ways and played a significant part in Minoan civilization.
Dolphins, a beauty flying through the waves off the coast of Taiji Japan. but sadly they are being hunted. Every year 23,000 dolphins are massacred in Japan. Ric O'Barry an ex-dolphin trainer, and vigilante helped The Oceanic Preservation Society (OPS) reveal the horrors within Taiji Japan. The Dolphin slaughter in Taiji Japan must be halted immediately due to the immense amounts of mercury contained in these invertebrates, and killing dolphins are just morally wrong.
Ultimately, colleges should actively be attempting to inhibit the amount of sexual assaults that happen on campus by improving security, allow law enforcement to handle cases, creating more approachable options for reporting sexual assaults, and holding self-defense classes. On March 31, 2016 President Barack Obama released a presidential proclamation addressing sexual assault, saying that we needed commit to shifting the “attitudes that allow sexual assault to go unanswered and unpunished, and we redouble our efforts to prevent this human rights violation from happening in the first place” (Obama). There needs to be a reduction in the frequency of these heinous crimes and security must be improved among all colleges. Lighting around the campus
Throughout history, animals have been a part of therapy treatments for many different physical, emotional and psychological disorders. Animal companions are often seen with someone who has autism; however, there are lots of controversies surrounding the types of animal therapy used for children with autism. One of the most controversial topics is Dolphin Assisted Therapy (DAT) and if it does improve the functioning of an individual with autism. There has been a lack of empirical evidence supporting the claim that DAT does improve social and language skills. Because of this lack of evidence and only anecdotal claims, Dolphin Assisted Therapy is seen as a pseudoscience; fake science. This paper will discuss what exactly dolphin assisted therapy
Don’t lie, you wonder how the people at SeaWorld train the killer whale and dolphins. Well, I can tell you how, since I’m one of those people. Well, kind of. I am a trainer, not at SeaWorld, but that’s not what I started as, what I’d hoped I would be, or even what I wanted to be going through college. It just so happened that I got offered a job so much better, I gave up on my original dream so I could be a trainer. I wanted to be a biological oceanographer, big name, I know. I had this dream growing up that I could be best friends with a killer whale, which basically, I had. Not the one in my dream, though. Her name was Lorelei, and she could talk to me like a human could, only better. I told her all my secrets, my goals in life that I would work so hard to achieve, but obviously having a whale as a best friend didn’t turn out. I was in love with the Free Willy movies, and I thought Jesse was cute, so I kept watching, and before I knew it I wanted some sort of job that had to do with orcas.
