“Eat Mor Chikin!” Shouts this fast food chain’s mascot. The Chik-Fil-A mascot may not be well educated, misspelling common known words, but he knows how to get people to eat and enjoy this new american classic. The Chik-Fil-A restaurants are one of the most popular eating establishments in America. People of all ages enjoy their food but people in Vail, Arizona are feeling left out of this delicious picture.

Both “Arm Wrestling with My Father” and “Shooting Dad” written by Brad Manning and Sarah Vowell, respectively, portrays a damaged and rough relationship that a son and/or daughter holds with his father. Although they both find themselves struggling, they are dealing with different things, Manning is dealing with a physical bounding, while Vowell finds herself handling a more emotional and communicative type of bonding. Eventually, both characters find themselves in a mature relationship over time. The characters had similarities and also differences with their respective father. Throughout the stories, both authors dig into the relationship between child and father and how it can be shaped and changed over time.

In May 2005 ‘Navigating Interracial Borders’ was published by Erica Chito Childs. The article offers a refined and understanding analysis of the social and political context of interracial relationships in America. Childs explores the world of interracial couples and examines the ways that group attitudes shape relationships. Using her own personal experiences, interviews, group responses, as well as media sources, she provides compelling evidence which verifies that disapproval still exists toward black/white unions. However it is merely being shown in a more subtle manor.

A crisis can be a terrible burden on any individual that has or is suffering through one; a crisis can leave a person with a great deal of anxiety and stress. As a crisis intervention worker it is my responsibility to at least try to help those that come into my office. Most that do come to me are going through a crisis of some kind or another and need to work through it. To help them work through their crisis I find that the ABC Model of Crisis Intervention is a great asset. The ABC Model of Crisis Intervention is an effective approach because I can provide temporary immediate

Poetry is like a song without music, it has the ability to awaken your emotions and the ability to tell stories that can paint beautiful, relatable, imagery in the viewer’s mind. Upon reading the poem, “My Son the Man” by Sharon Olds, she presents a unique view on her bittersweet experience of watching her son gravitate towards manhood, “Suddenly his shoulders get a lot wider” (line1), while realizing he is astute enough to escape his mother’s strong hold, “to learn the way out” (line 16). As a mother myself, I began to recognize how I can relate to the speaker’s challenges of understanding a child’s need to test limits and break free from dependency. I realized through the speaker’s obvious allusions to Houdini expressing the need to break free, the contrast used to convey the indirect references to Houdini, and the similes used to express emotion toward reflecting back on a time of innocence, accepting the need of a maturing child’s independence proves the strength of a mother’s love.

CIN 303 Response to Boyz N the Hood and Review by Roger Ebert in the Chicago Sun-Times

I grew up with 3 white older siblings. The first time I can remember acknowledging someone as being “different” from me was when my sister (cousin) Chey brought over 2 of her friends that she called “The Russians”. I didn't really know what she meant by that other than the fact that we weren't Russian. They were older boys, and when they would come into my room I was excited because being the youngest, I didn't really get to hang out with the older guys much. In hindsight I realize they were just bored and wanted something to do, but in my eyes at the time, these guys could potentially be my friends. So they came in a introduced themselves to me and were all over the place. They went from checking out my toys, to my sound system, to my tv just playing with

One of my favorite pieces of artwork is Shia LaBeouf’s performance of Joshua Parker’s “Just Do It” because it is a very interesting and inspirational piece of poetry in the form of a video that relates with me. To me, the poem delivers a message of perseverance or the will to start something you strongly desire to. It drives me to new and greater heights. The text states:

Individuals in the relationship can feel pressure in regards introducing their partner to family members. Bringing someone outside of the family’s origin, religion and traditional values for many can be deemed as stressful. Although the individual involved in the relationship is open and accepting; many find their family members to be rooted with particular views, and are skeptical and unwelcoming to the partner of the relationship. For many, living in a country such as Canada has made the opportunity of an interracial marriage and/or relationships acceptable and achievable for them, yet still hold feelings of guilt knowing the disapproval of family members living in their country of origin.

After watching a few episodes of my favorite show, Gravity Falls, I noticed a distasteful trait in one of the protagonists- Mabel Pines. In at least five different episodes, I witnessed Mabel force her brother, Dipper, to sacrifice things that he valued in order for her to possess things that she valued. The defining moment occurred whenever she ran away, after learning of Dipper’s possible internship opportunity, which required him to leave home. I was too angry to speak whenever the show’s conflict concluded with Dipper agreeing to not take the internship in order for Mabel to forgive him and come home. This ongoing conflict -due to Mabel’s seemingly helpless character flaw- made the show a little less pleasant to watch and has kept me from
