Writing has many tools and devices that can be used to influence the purpose and meaning of the a piece of work. In the two pieces of work, "Private License Plate Scanners Amassing Vast Databases Open to Highest Bidders-which is written in a way that it is anti-license plate tracking- and "Who Has the Right to Track You?'-which is written to be for license plate tracking- many different tools and devices are used by the authors. These pieces of work describe the benefits and drawbacks of collecting data and tracking fellow citizens, but use different forms of pathos, ethos, and logos to portray what they are trying to say. Also, both articles state how many are opposed to this tracking, arguing that it is against the First Amendment,

“Attention, soldiers of the Continental army, the patriots of our colonies!” George Washington shouted, drawing attention to himself as he stood. The whispers along with mumbles stopped, every person bringing their attention to the general as he stood from top to bottom as well as proud. “I will explain quickly what the plan of action is before I separate you. One through five-thousand, you will be going with Lafayette, blocking their escape from Yorktown, waiting in the Chesapeake Bay! Alexander, I believe you had something to say to our people of the colonies?”

Stacking two photographs on top of each other, Emmanuel Radnitzky’s (Man Ray) untitled work could be considered unique, but also mind-boggling. Although it’s clear that the center of focus is of an accordionist’s performance, the tubes of the accordion are a jumbled mess, the majority of the photograph is a distorted blur (Radnitzky). Since it takes great scrutiny to view individual pieces of this art, some may wonder why Man Ray challenges us with a juxtaposed style. Although it may seem disorienting, he recreates a scene of the woman’s accordion performance by overlapping two photographs to allow viewers to reanalyze the gestures humans make unconsciously. In Radiohead’s Lotus Flower, the dancer suggests that human beings are prone to

In football in a fairly sized city in the state of Minnesota attending the Tigers high school. He had a decent build being 6’0 and weighing just at 180. Joe Walker was your typical “average Joe” He played as a safety for JV (Junior Varsity) for his sophomore and junior years, but never made the next step into being a varsity safety only getting minimal reps towards the end of games. He knew if he wanted to play, he had to work as hard as he could after his junior year ended. He was on a mission to prove everybody wrong that believed he wasn’t going to work hard enough to reach what he wanted, which was being just a starting varsity safety.

Tutankhamun (Tutankhamen) was born in Egypt in 1341 B.C. In 1323 B.C. Tutankhamun died of an unknown death; he was only 17 or 18 years old. Before he died he got to live a short time as a ruler. After his body was exhumed, there have been signs that Tutankhamus could have been murdered, or died from an infection from an injury. “Historians generally agree that he was the twelfth ruler of the 18th Egyptian Dynasty, who assumed the throne when he was eight or nine years old. Before puberty he was married to his half-sister (or, possibly, niece) Ankhesenamen, daughter of Queen Nefertiti. He reigned until his death in his late teens. Some studies of his remains suggest that he was

My favorite quote is “Vision looks inward and becomes duty. Vision looks outward and becomes aspiration. Vision looks upward and becomes faith” (Stephen Wise). The inward duty looks at the mind and heart of man that relates to their walk with God. Outward aspiration looks at the strong desire or ambitions of man. And lastly, upward faith looks to the author and finisher of man faith to see and understand vision. It set’s vision about everything else because with vision you are obligated or required to complete the task. “And keep the charge of the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and whithersoever thou turnest thyself” (1 Kings 2:3,

We all go through seasons of difficulty and face storms in life, however, during those times, we have to remember that Almighty God is greater than any struggle we face! He’ll take those challenges and use them to strengthen us, but we have to do our part and take a step of faith toward the victory.

Through this experience, God helped me to realize my great need of His divine help every single day. It is in my nature to try to accomplish everything all at once and all on my own. But God is teaching me to step back, take a deep breath, and remember that I only need to focus on one day: today. In His strength, I can complete every task according to His perfect timing. He will help me moment by moment, guiding me one day at a

In Daniel W. Drezner’s journal article, he discusses about regulatory issue that generates high adjustment costs, which are treatments for GMOs. The author argues that despite globalization, the power of national governments regulates their own economies, and continue to dominate international regulatory regimes. These regulatory goals are driven by their own domestic interest. In the case of genetically modified organisms, they raise regulatory concerns in regard to consumer health and safety, and preserving biodiversity. The agricultural outputs can create a health risk to humans, however, there is no actual evidence that GMOs can pose a threat on health towards humans (Drezner, 2007, P. 154). There is no scientific evidence to prove

I agree with Reid, revamping America’s health care system would be far too complicated. I liked how Reid connected the ideas of a health care reform to many of the presidents of the past including Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. Ironically enough, Clinton’s reform didn’t even make it to congress and he was also impeached during his presidency. Is that a coincidence? I do support Obama’s ideas toward building on to the model of health care that we already have, instead of constructing a new one. While Obama’s thoughts were compiled into the Obama Care bill, Reid made it clear that people in America are still uninsured. To me, Obama started what could have been a really good option for health care within the U.S., however, that is now

That night, Wes found himself back at the Skulk and Lurk. He didn't know what compelled him to go, it could have been his general boredom, stress from his tireless research, Walter's persistence to do something outside of his room, or maybe he had a pathetic hope that he could convince some of the more open-minded goths to believe him about Danny. Whatever it was that brought him there, it was a strikingly out-of-character coercion to act on that kind of whim.

This book is meant to be a sequel to my latest book, COUNTDOWN! 7 Trumpets for Today. Because of the many signs of the imminence of Christ’s return, sincere people around the world are asking, “What must I do to be prepared to go safely through the climactic events of earth’s history, and meet Jesus in peace when He comes?” The apostle Peter’s advice is certainly

That’s a little scientist joke, and the proper way to begin this. As for the purpose of my notebook, I’m uncertain. Perhaps to organize my thoughts and not to go insane.
