In the article that I read, I do not necessarily agree with the goals both Ron Howard and Brian Grazer have in mind for extending the lifespan of human beings. For example, I believe there is a natural reason humans have the average lifespan that they obtain. If we alter that in any way, shape or form, we may cause severe damage to the nature of the Earth. In addition, if we were to expand the life expectancy, there is a high risk that the Earth cannot be handle a much higher population. Too many people would expire the natural goods the planet has. For example, there are many flies in this world, but there life expectancy is one to two weeks. Now, imagine how many flies there would be if there life was extended to a year, or two, or five.

When I read two essays, I honestly having a hard time consider to be the main thesis of each of the essays. The authors kept writing back and forth that lead me to confuse about the essays. In Maggie Paley's "Terry Southern: The Art of Screenwriting, by Interview", the author interviewed the screenwriter about his experiences. I believe the thesis will be: Terry Southern is a person who have an interesting past, wrote alot of plays, and had alot of experiences in the plays. I honestly can't find the right thesis because the author wrote everything unorganized, but I can see that he wrote alot of plays and told her that writing a book is different from writing a screenplay. He tolfd that he love movies and it is easy from him to write a screenplay.

Storytelling. A form of communication that is engrained in history, and a form of communication that tells history. Stories can vary in length and genre. However, one variable that remains constant is their ability to give new information to process. Authors John Updike, J.E. Wideman, and T.C. Boyle use their stories, A&P, Doc’s Story, and Rara Avis, respectively, to do just that. With some active reading, these short, but meaningful stories can empower readers to have a greater apprehension of real life situations. After taking an in depth look at these three pieces of literature, each contains themes of detachment, idolization, and handling losses.

Nintendo first started out as a playing card company that would soon grow into one of the largest video game company in the world. Shigeru Miyamoto created one of Nintendo’s most well-known iconic characters: Mario. Mario made his first appearance in Donkey Kong named as Jumpman. With the graphic limitations at the time Mario’s design was simple and consisted of red overalls, a blue shirt, large nose, and a mustache. A beloved character by all, Mario with his simplistic games, has made an impact on those who have played them. Mario continues to play a role in their lives. To this day, Nintendo depends on their widely known mascot to help them succeed in the gaming industry.

One day, my Mom surprised me that we were going to warm, fun Florida! We took a long, tiring, journey to the sun country airport in Minneapolis. We walked right and found my best buddy, aiden! We were so happy! We chatted and talked. Then we went to the waiting place to charge our dead video games and we waited for the long plane. Once it was ready, we grabbed our games and hurried onto the plane.

A recent study done by the UCLA Bunche Center for African American Studies showed the lack of diversity within Hollywood by examining all the films released, television programs on broadcast, cable, or digital networks, as well as the actors, writers, directors, and producers within the industry. Ethnic minorities make up about 40% of the American population but still remain underrepresented in all forms of entertainment. The study also discovered that more than 50% of moviegoers in the past two years were minorities. In television, minorities only claimed about 7% of lead roles in broadcast television (“NEW! 2015 Hollywood Diversity Report”). With half the American population consisting of different ethnicities, American television should accurately and proportionately portray the American people, yet some are having trouble doing so. Some television networks have catered to their diverse audience by casting actors of different ethnicities as the lead of a show, or by centering an entire show around a unique culture. Most have found this to be beneficial with an increase in ratings and in profits through their sponsors. The organizations, the Florida Family Association (FFA) and the National Hispanic Media Coalition (NHMC) represent two different positions on diversity within Hollywood and how the American people should be portrayed in the television industry.

The word genre has different meaning to different people. Lealand and Martin (2001) explain how “the television industry uses the term to categories and identify the various parts of its programming mix. The audiences use it to identify and choose their viewing preferences” (p. 59). The Graham Norton Show comes under the genre of a celebrity talk show, but holds its own comedic spin. Norton creates uniqueness to the show through the way he cracks jokes and interacts with his audience and guests. The show begins with a witty introductory monologue of who will be on the show, then moves into the classic couch interviews, and finishes with a celebrity music performance, conventions that all fit with the talk show genre (Miller, Boddy & Shattuc, 2008). The show focuses largely on the guests and their lives, along with promoting what they are currently involved in, relating it back to the purpose of the talk show genre (Miller, Boddy & Shattuc, 2008). A subcategory of this genre is a late night celebrity talk show, which The Graham Norton Show can also come under. According to Timberg, Bernard and Robert (2010), “the late night version is based on congenial, playful encounters between guests and the host, who is more often then not a singer or comedian” (p. 7). This subcategory became popular on television in the 1950s, and increased in popularity thanks to shows such as The Tonight Show (Timberg, Bernard and Robert, 2010). Since then they have become a lighter form of
