Blue Jays – Clever Mimics of the Bird World

- by Duane Loper

The other morning I followed the sound of what I thought to be a baby hawk, possibly in distress. Walking deeper into the woods as quietly as I could, I stopped often to home in on the insistent sounds. I hoped to catch a glimpse of a juvenile hawk, or at least the nesting site.

I finally reached the spot where the hawk sounds were the loudest. However, much to my surprise it was not a red shouldered hawk that flew out of the tree, but a blue jay uttering the same shrill but nasal ‘keyeer, keeyeer’! It was then I knew I had been fooled by one of the best and most versatile mimics in the bird world.

By sounding like a hawk, blue jays easily scatter other birds at the feeder. This gives them the freedom to dine at their leisure with little to no competition. They also …

Cat 5e and Cat 6 Differences and Benefits

- by Duane Loper

Bandwidth precedes data rates just as highways come prior to traffic. Doubling the bandwidth is like adding two times the number of lanes on a highway. The trends of the past and the predictions for the future indicate that rates have been doubling every 18 months.

Current applications running at 1 Gb/s are really pushing the limits of category 5e cabling. As streaming media applications such as video and multi-media become common, the demands for faster data rates will increase and create new applications that will benefit from the higher bandwidth offered by category 6. This is exactly what happened in the early 90’s when the higher bandwidth of category 5 cabling compared to category 3 caused most LAN applications to choose the new media to allow simpler, cost effective, higher speed LAN applications, such as 100BASE-TX. Note: Bandwidth is defined as the highest frequency up to which positive power …

Transgressive Artwork – The Concept

As obvious from the name, Transgressive Art is the a person that transgresses versus the basic norms or the ordinarily approved procedures. In get phrases, Transgressive Art can be described as a Surprising Art, formulated to insult the social conservatives of one particular sort or a further. The phrase ‘transgressive’ has a huge indicating ranging from offenses from God, to breaching pieties and taboos, to crossing the typical boundaries. Anthony Julius (1956), an eminent lawyer and lecturer, in his book Transgressions: The Offences of Artwork (2003) supplies a handy typology to the Transgressions artwork, by breaking it into the subsequent classes:
o By violating its individual rule
o By breaking taboos
o By getting politically resistant
Writer Jack Sergeant’s Deathtripping: The Cinema of Transgression was the most thorough ebook on the early Transgressive motion.

The Background
In 1985, American filmmaker Nick Zedd in his ‘Cinema …

Animal Farm By George Orwell – A Novella Of Didactic Language And Political Ideology

- by Duane Loper

Animal Farm, a masterpiece novella by George Orwell was written in 1945. It falls under novella as it is shorter and contains a less complex plot unlike a novel. The crux matter of Animal Farm is about how Czarist Russia evolved into communist Russia after the Russian Revolution in 1917. Orwell used the animal farm as the backdrop representing Russia and the animals that dwelled in the farm as the who’s who in the Russian Revolution. The Animal Farm is an allegory-a narrative that uses literary devices to unveil concealed meanings and messages.

The Oxford Dictionary defines allegory as a story, poem, or picture which can be interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning, typically a moral or political one. Not only that, Animal farm is also a satire. The same Oxford Dictionary defines a satire as the use of humour, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to mock, expose and criticize people’s …
