Repulsion

In “Characteristic of a Byronic Hero” it says “Due to all these characteristics, the Byronic Hero is often a figure of repulsion as well as fascination” Okonkwo with all his good qualities, and being the “perfect match” that he is, does become a figure of repulsion and is later on exiled and no one feels the same about him 7 years later. Okonkwo was a very arrogant man. He is what the people of Umuofia called a perfect match. In chapter one of “Things Fall Apart” the author states that “Okonkwo

annoying and aesthetically unpleasing. She reveals her aversion to the wallpaper when she describes the pattern as, “One of those sprawling flamboyant patterns committing every artistic sin” (648). However, as her mental state deteriorates, her repulsion toward the yellow wallpaper heightens. In her worsening mental

Quantum Mechanics The Quantum Mechanics are weird, yet incredibly powerful theory of the subatomic world, in which everyday concepts to do with the forces and motion are seen in a different perspective, as they do not longer apply in the same way. This calls for a new type of mechanics based on what scientists call "quantum" rules. Quantum mechanics are a very complicated matter that scientists don't fully understand yet; they are in charge of studying the smallest faces of our world. The idea

recognized that there was a force responsible for the change brought about. In his case, changes in the forms and positions of the basic elements was an effect of two forces – love and strife (or more commonly known as the forces of attraction and repulsion/decomposition). The philosophy of

exposure to the artifact. Aesthetic response is involuntary, requiring little if any expenditure of cognitive effort. Aesthetic response is an aggregate assessment biased either positively (e.g, beauty or attraction) or negatively (e.g., ugliness or repulsion) and not a nuanced multi-dimensional evaluation. For example, consider a brochure for a new financial service, say a mutual fund. The graphic design of the cover of the brochure may evoke an aesthetic response— an

constant (Ka) different from that of the corresponding monoacid or monobase. By generating the charge along the polymer backbone, the electrostatic repulsion results in an increase in the hydrodynamic volume of the polymer [1]. This transition between tightly coiled and expanded state is influenced by any condition that modify electrostatic repulsion, such

Entrails torn from the body with bare hands, eyes gouged out with razor blades, battery cables, rats borrowing inside the human body, power drills to the face, cannibalism, credit cards, business cards, Dorsia, Testoni, Armani, Wall Street; all of these things are Patrick Bateman’s world. The only difference between Bateman and anybody else is what is repulsive to Bateman and what is repulsive to the rest of the world. Bateman has great interest in the upper class life, fashions, and social existence

In the poem Repulsive Theory by Kay Ryan, she highlights the necessity of space in nature, a privacy of sorts, rather than discussing the more commonly brought about topic of the harmony of nature. It is as if she is arguing the necessity of repulsion in creation, in a way that she touches on how the facets of separation are just as important to the creation of something, as would the combination of elements. A big aspect to her poem is noting how much people enjoy the idea of attraction yet toss

In a normally functioning cell, the gene SerB codes for an enzyme which plays a role in the last step of serine production. Serine is an essential amino acid which is required for the cell to survive. The researchers in Hecht lab at Princeton University discovered that a synthetic protein SynSerB substitutes the SerB gene which is lacking in some of the cells. How did they design SynSerB and how does it help the cell? The ability of SynSerB to function as a substitute for SerB was first observed

Heraclitus believed in a world of Logos, or logic, and that mankind lacks basic reasoning. He stated that senses are necessary to understanding the world we live in, but without the right language, we cannot interpret it correctly, and so, it’s a mistake for “barbaric men” to have senses (barbaric men do not have the capability to learn language). Many of his ideas are widely known today. For example, “expect the unexpected” and that if things happened the way we want or wish them to be, then the
