Andy Stanley's Analysis

In Alan T. Nolan’s work, Lee Considered: General Robert E. Lee and Civil War History, Nolan reexamines historical sources, including Lee’s official and personal correspondence and many other writings on Lee. Nolan states, without going too far into his own background, that he is “suspicious of saints,” and this suspicion is what led Nolan’s desire to review long held beliefs about Lee. Nolan examines Lee’s views on slavery and points out that Lee believed that slavery benefited the “African,” associating the black race with degradation and believed that the races were best separated. Nolan argues that as a general, Lee, though brutally effective on the battlefield, lacked an understanding of national strategy. Nolan would have readers believe

Tim Shaw is a sculptor who created a sculpture of a man in fire. This sculpture is called Erebus; it took him 7 years to finish this piece. This sculpture especially caught my attention as it is seen as a very strong and powerful sculpture. I have decided to draw this this sculpture because it could relate to my theme Decay. In my perspective by looking at this sculpture of a burning man could show that this man is at his last stage of life where he is about to die. This sculpture has a lot of meaning behind it…

O’Brien’s story about getting drafted to serve in the Army at the tender age of twenty-one made me sympathize but that doesn’t mean I particularly like his decision at the end of the chapter. He said it himself, he took a mild stand against the Vietnam War and was going to Harvard soon; he was too smart for it because unlike every other student drafted he had an actual future. When the young student thought about crossing the border into Canada to avoid the draft he chickened out of it, even though he went there and spent weeks building up the courage to do it. To me it seemed like his fear of losing respectability and being ridiculed were greater than his fear for his own life. If I were somehow in this particular situation I wouldn’t have

Furthermore, the burning of the home of the O’Meally family could be construed as another catalyst for Ben Hall’s new and determined effort to hold the colony to account for the injustice that he, Ben Hall perceived as being inflicted against not only his friends, but being perpetrated by the very forces that Hall himself had felt so aggrieved by since his arrest for the Bacon and Eugowra robberies and following the burning of his former home and the turning out of his own family, who had been driven out by Inspector Pottinger only six months earlier. Accordingly, this additional barbaric act against the O'Meally's was to reinforce Ben Hall’s decided path of wanton destruction, and vicious assaults against the local country folk, who in the

	Living is about making choices. The choices people make shape their lives for better or worse. Even the decision not to choose has its effects, often not wanted. But the individual who chooses to make positive choices and to act accordingly is more likely to see his or her life reflect his or her beliefs and desires. Usually the individual who chooses to take action is also willing to face the risks and obstacles that such choices involve.

“Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it?” This quote from the play “Our Town” points out that many people do not potentially live life to the fullest. People always say “don’t wish your life away” because before you know it, it’s already gone. In the play “Our Town” there are many little life lessons that can be learned.

The people against surveillance also pressure the fact that cameras can bring to mind off-putting emotions in citizens, giving citizens a feeling of being constantly observed and somewhat controlled. This refers both to adults and children, who have already recognized their views on the society, government, and the state, or who are in the process of developing a view. Jay C. Stanley, a higher-ranking policy analyst for the American Civil Liberties Union thinks, “Constant surveillance, from the time children enter school to the time they leave, teaches the wrong thing about the relationship between the citizen and the government in a democratic society.” Stated succinctly, children may believe the state has a right to interfere in the private

As well, observation as well to be reckoned as participation, in a boarder scope of the definition Lefebvre ([1968] 1996)provokes “the right to the city” is of the nodes of foci to see and to be seen. An “immersion” in the manner that Kevin Lynch states of her/his proposition standing onto/into the city. According to

Dan Neil, author of “Porsche Macan S: Is This Compact Crossover Barbie’s Dream Car?” has a declamatory writing style. “Growl, kitty, growl!” Neil displays his ethos by using vivid language in a way that gives his audience the impression that he knows what he is talking about “The 2015 Macan S … it is a dram of excelsior, a proud, darling thing…”. He also uses semi-formal language to present his facts about Porsche in a professional manner. “About a third of the Porsche’s structure is common to the Audi, butt Macan gets Porsche-proprietary engines and the PDK gearbox; exterior and interior; suspensions and dynamics software.” Neil seems trustworthy because he not only gives us his opinion about Porsche but he also gives us facts to educate us

The main aim of this summary was to explore the learning styles and life in general of students in Midwest University. The writer begins by thanking the students who made their accommodation at the campus possible. Usually, the school will cater only for its students with no visitors in mind. But some students were generous enough to offer their rooms for the academic year so that the writers would do their research comfortably. To be able to do so, they first needed permission from the relevant authorities in the campus. Also, they could not entirely fund the research on their own. The Spencer Foundation came in and funded them so that they would be able to collect the required data for their research. The primary purpose of this writers was

The Stanley Parable (2013) was a game released to widespread acclaim about a man named Stanley, whose coworkers mysteriously disappear from the office and whose actions and choices are subsequently voiced by a narrator. While at first the game might seem simple and ordinary, the longer spent in the game the more complex the narrative is revealed to be. The game satirizes a lot of conventions and narrative tropes used throughout the games industry, as well as commenting on other facets tied heavily to the games medium, like hacks, bugs, and even gameplay. While that might not be special in itself, what makes The Stanley Parable stand out is how it goes about commenting on these things. By having the player control Stanley and have all their actions chronicled by the narrator, the game has created these three distinct entities: The player, Stanley and the narrator. The relationship between these three is the primary way the game is able to explore certain themes such as player agency, and how much choice matters. According to Astrid Ensslin, “As players we are made to read [the game] as an allegory of illusory agency built into games to give players the illusion of choice, power and control. In fact, we as players are all Stanley because again and again we willingly or even enthusiastically subject ourselves to the constraints set by the games we play” (Ensslin 67). The many different endings contained within The Stanley Parable interacts with these relationships in varying

I had always heard of the inspiring morals in books and movies about living in the moment because life is short, and if you don't carpe diem life will slip away, and you will waste it worrying. In response I had always thought: “Okay, not a bad idea. You know
