The Description of Plot in E.L. James’ Novel Grey
No full textThe paper of this work is entitled A Description Of Plot in E.L James' Novel Grey. In writing this paper, the author uses qualitative methods, where the authors use the book as a source of information and also the Internet as a source of analysis of themes that are described in the novel. The author read the entire contents of the novel and draw conclusions and then determine the plot of the story that is in the novel. There are five main types of plot divisions, namely exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution, but the author only focuses on the plot above because the plot completely explains the details of the story. The plot listed in the novel is a progressive plot. The original author of the novel is very clear explaining the life story of the main character who is still struggling to get a woman he loves but with unique ways and stories.Kertas karya ini berjudul A Description Of Plot in E.L James’ Novel Grey . Pada penulisan kertas karya ini, penulis menggunakan metode kualitatif, dimana penulis menggunakan buku sebagai sumber informasi dan juga internet sebagai sumber analisis tema yang di deskripsikan pada novel. Penulis membaca seluruh isi novel dan mengambil kesimpulan kemudian menetukan plot dari cerita yang ada pada novel. Pembagian plot pada umumnya ada lima jenis, yaitu exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, dan resolution, namun penulis hanya fokus pada plot diatas karena plot tersebut secara lengkap menjelaskan detail cerita.Plot yang tercantum di dalam novel ialah plot progresif. Penulis asli novel tersebut sangat jelas menerangkan cerita kehidupan tokoh utama yang masih berjuang untuk mendapatkan seorang wanita yang ia cintai namun dengan cara dan cerita yang unik.Kertas Karya Diplom
Sadomasochism In E.L James' Fifty Shades Trilogy (2011-2012): A Psychoanalytic Approach
No full textThis study is about Sadomasochism in E.L James’ Fifty Shades Trilogy (2011-2012) which is analyzed using sychoanalytic Approach proposed by Sigmund Freud. The objectives of this study are to find out what sexual acts are committed by the two major characters as practitioners of sadomasochism, to know the response of the partner, and to find out why the author of the trilogy, E.L James xposed sadomasochism in her books. This research is a qualitative research. The primary data of this research is Fifty Shades Trilogy including Fifty Shades of Grey (2011), Fifty Shades Darker (2011), and Fifty Shades Freed (2012). The secondary data of this research are other sources related to the study including websites and books. The researcher draws three conclusions in this research. Firstly, there are three kinds of sexual activities done by the two major characters namely sexual activities without involving tools, sexual activities involving tools, and sexual activities in the playroom. Secondly, there are four kinds of responses shows by the partner namely wanting, enjoying, feeling reluctant, and unbearable. Thirdly, E.L James exposed sadomasochism in her books to illustrate changes in the characters and to show the readers the effects that Christian’s childhood has caused
Burst-by-Burst Adaptive Multiuser Detection CDMA: A Framework for Existing and Future Wireless Standards
No full textThis paper provides a broad overview of the multiuser detection literature of the past few years in a nonmathematical, easily accessible approach. The treatment is then extended to the comparative study of channel-quality controlled burst-by-burst (BbB) adaptive code division multiple access (CDMA) detection such as parallel interference cancellation, successive interference cancellation, and joint detection (JD). It is demonstrated that the best complexity versus performance tradeoff is constituted by the JD receivers. Furthermore, the BbB-adaptive variable spreading factor-based schemes considered were outperformed by the adaptive quadrature amplitude modulation-based JD-CDMA schemes investigated. For example, at a channel signal-to-noise ratio per bit value of = 14 dB the latter scheme provides an average bit per symbol (BPS) throughput of 3.39, while the former provides an average BPS throughput of only 2.83, although the complexity of the latter is lower. In conclusion, BbB-adaptive CDMA schemes provide an attractive performance versus complexity tradeoff and are amenable to employment in both existing and future generations of wireless systems.

Digitizing signals - a short tutorial guide
No full textConverting the analogue signal, as captured from a patient, into digital format is known as digitizing, or analogue to digital conversion. This is a vital first step in for digital signal processing. The acquisition of high-quality data requires appropriate choices of system and parameters (sampling rate, anti-alias filter, amplification, number of ‘bits’). Thus tutorial aims to provide a practical guide to making these choices, and explains the underlying principles (rather than the mathematical theory and proofs) and potential pitfalls. Illustrative examples from different physiological signals are provided
Ambitions as the Effect of Childhood Experience in E.L. James Fifty Shades of Grey
No full textPROSIDING SEMINAR NASIONAL PEKAN CHAIRIL ANWAR "HUMANIORA DAN ERA DISRUPSI" (5-6 Oktober 2020 Aula Fakultas Ilmu Budaya Universitas Jember)This article aims to analyze the effect of the male character childhood in E.L. James's Fifty Shades of
Grey By using psychological approach to analyze the fictitious character and the creative process of the
author. Theory of interpretation of dream by Sigmund Freud is applied in order to explain the causes of
ambition done by Christian Grey. Grey’s ambition is caused by the desire to revenge from his trauma in
his childhood. There are three factors that make the character ambitious: The first is when Grey uses his
violence (BDSM) to dominate his partner. The second is when Grey want become rich and popular man.
The last is Grey’s heart emptiness after a woman he loved left him. The first problem is in the field of
abnormal psychology in order to differentiate abnormal from normal behavior. In short, Grey's ambitions
are caused by a traumatic condition when he was a child. E.L. James explains a sexual lifestyle which is
called BDSM (Bondage/ Disipline, Dominance/ Submissive, Sadism/ Masochism). By exposing this
lifestyle in her novel, the author wants to shows that BDSM is not an equal relationship between man and
woman
Photoproduction of positive pions near threshold in hydrogen
No full textAn experiment has been done to improve available
measurements of pi+ photoproduction cross sections very near
threshold 0 To do this, a 1410 hydrogen bubble chamber was
used in an X-ray beam with Emax = 230 MeV. Meson tracks could
be observed from their origins in the photon beam. Only
those events were used in which the '1T+ stopped and decayed
in the visible region of the chamber.
To suppress electron background, the X-ray beam from
the University of Illinois petatron was hardened before it
passed through the bubble chamber. Each X-ray pulse
contained a total energy of about 106 MeV. A special high
pressure ion chamber was used to monitor the beam flux. The
uncertainty in the calibration of the monitor is about 2.4%0
From 435 0 000 sets of photographs u about 9100 usable
protoproduction events were found. The scanning efficiency
appears to be greater than 99%.
The 90 0 center-of-momentum matrix-e1ement-squared is
found to agree well with an evaluation of the theoretical
prediction of Chew, Goldberger, Low, and Nambu (CGLN).
the threshold value for the a. oc·oe coefficient is. ... found to be
21.1 ± 0.8 ~b/str. In conjunction with the theoretically
predicted value for the minus-to-plus ratio and using a
theorem by Kroll and Ruderman g a value of .0788 ± .0030 is
obtained for the re-norma1ized pion-nucleon coupling constantSubmitted by Carolyn Mead ([email protected]) on 2011-05-19T14:45:59Z
