New research has shown that horses are able to read and remember the emotional expressions of humans. Animal behavior experts at the University of Sussex and the University of Portsmouth in the UK presented domestic horses with large photographs of humans with happy or an angry expressions. Several hours later the horses saw the person who had been in the photograph, but this time the person adopted a neutral expression. Moreover, the person didn't know if the horse had seen the happy picture or the angry picture. The researchers monitored the horses for particular behaviors, such as looking behavior, to assess their emotional states. What can looking behavior tell you? Horses, and a "What we've found is that horses can not only read human facial number of other species, including dogs, tend to process expressions but they can also remember a person's previous potentially threatening stimuli in the right hemisphere of the emotional state when they meet them later that day, and crucially, brain.

  • Luxembourg Resistance to the German Occupation of the Second World War, 1940-1945
    LUXEMBOURG RESISTANCE TO THE GERMAN OCCUPATION OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR, 1940-1945 by Maureen Hubbart A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF ARTS Major Subject: History West Texas A&M University Canyon, TX December 2015 ABSTRACT The history of Luxembourg’s resistance against the German occupation of World War II has rarely been addressed in English-language scholarship. Perhaps because of the country’s small size, it is often overlooked in accounts of Western European History. However, Luxembourgers experienced the German occupation in a unique manner, in large part because the Germans considered Luxembourgers to be ethnically and culturally German. The Germans sought to completely Germanize and Nazify the Luxembourg population, giving Luxembourgers many opportunities to resist their oppressors. A study of French, German, and Luxembourgian sources about this topic reveals a people that resisted in active and passive, private and public ways. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank Dr. Elizabeth Clark for her guidance in helping me write my thesis and for sharing my passion about the topic of underground resistance. My gratitude also goes to Dr. Brasington for all of his encouragement and his suggestions to improve my writing process. My thanks to the entire faculty in the History Department for their support and encouragement. This thesis is dedicated to my family: Pete and Linda Hubbart who played with and took care of my children for countless hours so that I could finish my degree; my husband who encouraged me and always had a joke ready to help me relax; and my parents and those members of my family living in Europe, whose history kindled my interest in the Luxembourgian resistance.

  • Cosmopolitan Ethics and the Limits of Tolerance: Representing the Holocaust in Young Adult Literature
    COSMOPOLITAN ETHICS AND THE LIMITS OF TOLERANCE: REPRESENTING THE HOLOCAUST IN YOUNG ADULT LITERATURE Rachel L. Dean-Ruzicka A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2011 Committee: Dr. Beth Greich-Polelle, Advisor Dr. Nancy W. Fordham Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Kimberly Coates Dr. Vivian Patraka © 2011 Rachel L. Dean-Ruzicka All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Beth Greich-Polelle, Advisor This dissertation critically evaluates the concepts of tolerance and toleration and how these two ideas are often deployed as the appropriate response to any perceived difference in American culture. Using young adult literature about the Holocaust as a case study, this project illustrates how idealizing tolerance merely serves to maintain existing systems of power and privilege. Instead of using adolescent Holocaust literature to promote tolerance in educational institutions, I argue that a more effective goal is to encourage readers’ engagement and acceptance of difference. The dissertation examines approximately forty young adult novels and memoirs on the subject of the Holocaust. Through close readings of the texts, I illustrate how they succeed or fail at presenting characters that young adults can recognize as different from themselves in ways that will help to destabilize existing systems of power and privilege. I argue this sort of destabilization takes place through imaginative investment with a literary “Other” in order to develop a more cosmopolitan worldview. Using the theories of Judith Butler, Kwame Anthony Appiah, and Gerard Delanty I contended that engagement with and appreciation of difference is possible when reading young adult Holocaust literature.

Anyanwu Professor of Marketing, Faculty of Business Administration Imo State University P.M.B 2000, Owerri, Nigeria Tel: 234-80-3328-1364 E-mail: [email protected] Received: May 17, 2011 Accepted: June 7, 2011 doi:10.5539/ijms.v3n3p122 Abstract Colonial experience, buoyed by global media, brought in its wake, an attitudinal predisposition towards foreign culture and products, to the detriment of the domestic economy and identity. Besides the existing stream of relevant literature, this paper aims at a comparative attitude measurement, as well as exploring the underpinnings of sustained choice irrationality in favor of foreign-labeled products. Using experiments in the footwear industry, this study established the prevalence of a “Consumption Complex Syndrome (CCS)” – a state of consumer mind that consistently predisposes him to foreign-labeled products, even when the domestic ones are preferred in a Blind Brand Experiment. The concomitant policy, entrepreneurial imperatives and a reconstruction of the Consumer Behaviour model are considered. Keywords: Consumption complex syndrome, Shoes, Attitude, Bakassi lines, Indigenous entrepreneurship 1. Introduction The origin of footwear is vague. However, ancient Egypt is generally credited with its use (especially sandals) in 3700BC (World Book Encyclopedia, 2001).

The mo- ment he did so, the culture war returned to American politics. Although the econ- omy was entering a tailspin and dangers were prominent around the world, once again we were discussing whether elites had lost touch with the common people by failing to appreciate religion and dismissing people’s concerns with morality. The Palin selection raised a larger question: Did we ever have a culture war in the ‹rst place? In this book, Irene Taviss Thomson offers an original and important new way of answering that question. Whether or not a culture war indeed existed out there in Middle America, just about everyone who wrote on the topic agreed that elites themselves were sharply divided between liberal and conservative views of the world. And, the argument went, the raging culture war was especially apparent in the media, whatever was happening in small-town America. Rather than simply assuming the truth of this proposition, Thomson looks at the media—speci‹cally, opinion magazines. Her research challenges the idea that our opinion leaders are engaged in an implacable war with each other. Culture has his- torically been de‹ned as the common values that bind together a society. Thomson shows that this idea of culture remains very much alive.
