John Freyer

Each description of an item Freyer listed for auction included either a personal story or entertaining information on why someone should purchase this item. As I was reading through these descriptions I found them written mostly in subjective manner with some objective points compared to today’s E-bay style auctions, which is mostly targeting the buyer looking for objective descriptions. Since Freyer style of descriptions were so unusual, here are three examples to demonstrate the differences to

Based on what I saw of All My Life for Sale, it seems that the goal is to make each item truly meaningful to whomever buys it, as well as turning the item itself into an art piece. In the photos, the items were posed purposefully in order to look appealing and well thought out. Each photo is accompanied by a short history of the item. These histories are a work of art on their own, poetically describing the item, what it means to it's current owner, and where it came from. All of the items on the site are pretty unique, in that there is usually only one of each item available. Overall, All My Life for Sale gave off the vibe of an online, hipster-esque art museum; each item it's own exhibit.

Although a memory may deteriorate over the span of years or even decades, a photograph will last a lifetime. Images are more than an object to have for safe keeping. In his article, “We Are A Camera,” Nick Paumgarten discusses the uprising of the popular recording device known as the GoPro. This device is used to record events and experiences from different perspectives, whether that is from underwater or zip lining through a forest in a first-person view. Moreover, videos and photography allow people to capture images to reminisce about past experiences, to share these moments with others, and even remember those whom you have lost.

As a hook in his article “When Life Imitates Video,” John Leo describes the Columbine High School massacre which took place near the city of Littleton, Colorado in 1999. Leo claims the actions taken by the teen shooters are due to the violent video games that* many young people play. The rest of his essay builds from this idea, arguing that violent video games desensitize players and encourages dangerous and delinquent behaviors in young children and teens. To effectively convince his target audience, those who have not yet had exposure to the idea of a connection between video games and behavior, of this idea, Leo utilizes an appeal to pathos and logos.

John Hubner’s Last Chance in Texas focuses on the boys and girls who go to Giddings State School to establish that they aren’t just criminals. The story doesn’t just focus on the students’ lives, but students who are trying to reform by transitioning from an unstable environment to a stable one. Giddings State School has two sections based on gender roles that demonstrate the students properly transitioning into a citizen. In the first section of the book, boys are not supposed to express their feelings because its culture is frowned upon, so it takes longer for boys to relive and move forward in their recovery. In the second part of the book, it’s shorter because girls are socially acceptable so it takes less time to display emotions. In the beginning of chapter 9, it starts out with the Parents of Murdered Children go to Giddings State School to discuss how they felt anger toward the students attending school. The book also demonstrates how the Nesbits to the facility to speak to the girls about Katy which led the girls into understanding that when there’s an effect theirs always an outcome. In Hubners book chapter 9, “Meeting Katy” is the most significant chapter of part II because it discusses not just the students’ lives, but discuss outside point of view toward the inmates and how the girls achieve an understanding with emotions.

There are thousands of sport teams, from high school to professional, that have mascots that reference Native American culture. In an increasingly diverse and conscientious American culture, the question still stands is it appropriate for teams to continue to use mascots that appropriate another culture? John Barr reminds us that “I think that what I would encourage you to do and everyone else to do is just look at the history, understand where the name came from, understand that it means… honor, it means respect, it means pride. And it’s that simple” (Wulf). Barr’s point is that when teams pick this name it is an honor to be called a Native American name. In Barr’s point I would highly agree with him because, my family takes heart to that.

Do you know who John Colter is? He is a man of many talents. He loved to go on fascinating adventures.

On March 28, 2107 at approximately 1410 I responded to 1920 North Street, Longwood, Seminole County in reference to a deceased person. Upon arrival, I made contact with reporting person John Hassberger, the brother of Toby Hassberger (deceased).

The author goes as far as sharing that with his encouragement his friends too now own a T-4 camera and use it for personal and professional purposes. He expresses great feelings in what he has accomplished with the use of the camera and went as far as to post his personal pictures so one can see firsthand what has been described. I looked at 3 of the exact same T-4 cameras on ebay.com. The first two had one or two non-descriptive sentences that simply stated the issues the user may have with the camera. The third camera which was also the cheapest of the three focused more on how the camera works. In the post of camera 3 the seller gives no information regarding personal use or the quality of the pictures. The seller simply states that it is a T-4 point and shoot camera and is simple to use. cameras special features that are described are, it removes red eye, the color automatically adjusts and sharpens. It states the results from the camera are

Browsing curiously through the many listings on AllMyLife I came across a board game made in 1965 by a company called Pleasantime and the product named Space Checkers. The board game was easily found on Ebay and a few different variations of the same game, though the descriptions differed greatly although the same product in comparison to AllMyLife. The audience is arguably the same, though perhaps those who know about John D. Freyer and AllMyLife may bring in an audience to purchase his possessions rather than just to play an old board game. The photos on both AllMyLife and the Ebay listing both show the box as worn however the listing on Ebay shows additional photos such as a piece that was chewed on. John D. Freyers listing conveys a subjective story less about the product and more about his history with it, contrasting with the Ebay listing simply describing the product in an objective manner.

Simile: a phrase that uses the words like or as to describe someone or something by comparing it with someone or something else that is similar.

(Bellis, 2009) Nevertheless, the main selling point of digital cameras was the convenient way that they could be stored. Every exposure is almost instantly saved to a removable disk drive, which remarkably expired the use of darkroom processing. It was convenient, less time was needed to produce an image, making it particularly appealing to journalism. The photograph has since then become an instant process. Combined with the invention of the Internet, and booming industry of personal computers, the newer technology would expire its predecessor. There are billions of photographs on the Internet, comprising the largest most diverse photo collection ever assembled. We have access to imagery from all over the world, using key words and hash tags to catalogue imagery and content; we can see what is happening without being there. The introduction of digital photography has enabled photographers to record terabits of imagery which can be stored in minute places, meaning the coverage that we have of the modern world is greater than ever. Unlike the formats that Henri Cartier-Bresson used, where each roll of film, or negative slide needed storing in a large physical place, under controlled conditions, an archive of objects. Automation came with digital photography, its combination of digital components allowed the camera to automatically detect light qualities, and

John Anders, a Harvard Medical School analyst, was among the first to make sense of how to develop polio infection in the research facility. Enders, who was teacher of bacteriology and immunology at Harvard Medical School and head of the exploration division of irresistible illnesses at the Children's Hospital Medical Center, won the 1954 Nobel Prize in drug for his 1948. In 1948, Enders and his partners were attempting to develop the chicken pox infection in a blend of human embryonic skin and muscle tissue when it jumped out at them to attempt the polio put away in an adjacent bureau. In the wake of consolidating the development medium and the infection, the scientists infused the liquid into the brains of monkeys. At the point when the monkeys

Photographing has been enjoyed by many people for a long time. Today, it is very easy for everyone to own a camera so this hobby is becoming more and more popular.
