What do you call a “genius, billionaire, playboy, and philanthropist”? Marvel’s Anthony "Tony" Edward Stark! Also known as Iron Man. He was born to Howard Anthony Stark and Maria Collins Carbonell Stark, owners of the prominent US firm, Stark Industries. As a boy, Tony was fascinated with building and controlling machines. At the age of 15, Tony entered the undergraduate electrical engineering program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and graduated with two master’s degrees by age 19. Tony went to work for Stark Industries, but showed more interest in living a reckless playboy lifestyle than using his engineering skills. At the age of 21, Tony inherited Stark Enterprises when his parents were killed in a car accident secretly orchestrated by rival corporation Republic Oil (later ROXXON). Still lacking in business acumen, Tony promoted secretary Virginia "Pepper" Potts to be his executive assistant and left the majority of his …show more content…
For instance, he never gives up when the Iron Man suit keeps failing. And even though it caught fire many times, he never gave up and keeps trying to improve the suit. He is very meticulous to detail. When the government threatens to take away the Iron Man suit he replies, “My armor was never a distraction or a hobby, it was a cocoon, and now I'm a changed man. You can take away my house, all my tricks and toys, but one thing you can't take away - I am Iron Man. (Iron Man, 2013)”
Extraversion is the tendency toward positive emotions and sociability. Tony seems to be low in extraversion. Even though he loves to talk about himself, he doesn’t like to be around social events. He always talks about leaving early and tries to avoid speaking to others. And when he does speak to others he is always sarcastic. When the strawberry vendor hands strawberries to Tony, he says, “I don't like people handing me things just put it down there. (Iron Man,

Extraversion- Extraversion is marked by pronounced engagement with the external world. McCrae & Costa (1997) believe there is a good deal of variation in what makes up this factor. Extraverts enjoy being with people, are full of energy, and often experience positive emotions. Extraverted employees tend to be enthusiastic and action-oriented (Carver & Scheier, 2000), like
Racial profiling in the United States has become more of a hot topic in the past years more than ever before in the 21st century. With races butting heads on presidential elections, terrorist attacks, police brutality, and more that continues to separate our country than unite it. The Iron Triangle is in place to help, strengthen, and better the US Government and the citizens of the country. While the Iron Triangle has made the government a balanced machine, it has its flaws dealing with racial profiling and trying to find solutions in fixing them.
Andrew Carnegie could be considered a god among men. Born in Scotland he later moved to America and began working. Back in those days he was just a kid making less than $2.00 a week working more than what we consider full-time " 40 hours a week". With some self taught skills he ended up working in the railroad industry, he was very successful there and eventually ended up in the iron and iron products industry. After amassing a small amount of wealth he was able to invest his earnings and as the world and economy started to evolve, so did his fortune.
One morning, Thor awoke to see his beautiful wife Sif completely bald. Sif was petrified. Thor knew straight away that his rival Loki was to blame. An incensed Thor went to Loki and asked why he pulled out her hair.

After reading the stock characteristics one that caught my attention would be "Briguella” due to the fact that Loki from the Avengers fits the role. Loki or better known as the "God of Mischief" is a god in Asgard that was once run by his father Odin. Loki's desires are to take the throne for him, doing anything necessary to reach his goals. Risking and taking the lives of many in multiple attempts to reach said goals. The schemes done by the god can be viewed as dangerous and overall deceitful which is why I think Loki falls under said category.
Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison is the story of a young, educated black man living in New York who struggles to survive in a racially divided society that chooses to ignore him because of the fact that he is black. Because of this, he lives in a hole underground and continues to believe that he is invisible to American society. It is a story set in the U.S pre Civil Rights era and is told in the first person through many memories and dreams. While reading his story, I began to take note of all of the themes in symbolism throughout the book, and I realized how much of an effect they had on the story being told. The themes and symbolism are important because they help us understand and connect to the story being told.
All throughout my childhood, I had an extreme fascination with heroes, especially superheroes. Despite my complete distain of spiders, I wanted to shoot webs from my wrists and swing around the town all day long like Spider-Man. After the release of the Iron Man movie, I wanted nothing more than to be clever enough to build a full metal suit. Now that I am older, it is incredibly hard for me to decide which I would rather be. Both ended up in epic battles - like Spider-Man and the Sandman, and Iron Man (and the rest of the Avengers) against a whole fleet of an alien army. Although either of their lives are desirable, several of their attributes, such as their identities, their powers, how they acquired them, and their personalities
In 2015, on an average day in America, thirty-six Americans were killed by guns, excluding suicides. How many of those deaths would have been prevented if there were stricter gun laws? How many parents would have lived to see their babies grow up? How many children would have lived to graduate, or get married? Although many Americans believe that gun control takes away their second amendment right it actually increases every citizen’s safety by the use of extensive background checking, checking medical records, and restricting gun distributors.
Exile: the state of being barred from one's native country, typically for political or punitive reasons. However, this dictionary definition fails to cover the true meaning of being exiled. Being exiled is being forcibly removed by yourself or another from that which you identify with. Edward Said describes exile as “the unhealable rift forced between a human being and a native place, between the self and its true home” (Said 137). Exile is the experience, which may be unbelievably depressing for some, while it may be enlightening for others.
Extraversion can be described as a love for being around others, being social, and outgoing. This is often a positive trait however; it also is difficult for an extrovert to work well alone. Being an extrovert is a weakness at times because I find that I have a harder time being motivated and staying on track when I work in a solitary environment. I see this often in the office, during the traditional work week of Monday-Friday I am very productive. On these days I will interact with hundreds of people. If I work from home or work on the
Well, it would appear small superheroes pack a mean punch – as the latest addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Ant-Man, easily knocked both Minions and Amy Schumer to the backburner.
