Shameless Analysis

The second discussion board posting I chose to respond to is by Hyesoo Byun, and he posted it under, “DB 3: Red Jacket.” He posted it on October 4th, 2016 in the third discussion board posting. I agree with his posting and ideas like how the Great Spirit is their ultimate leader; the Great Spirit creates and gives everything to the Indians that they need. Hyesoo states, “The Great Spirit is a universal supreme being that was worshiped among some Native American tribes as the universal provider and creator. From the Great Spirit there were nature like the sun and the moon and creation like animals and plants for food and clothings” (Byun). The Great Spirit did a lot for them, so Hyesoo is correct. For example, “The Great Spirit had made it for the use of Indians. He

“Couldn’t Keep it to Myself Wally Lamb and the Women of York Correctional Institution” a collection of stories told by women and their past present and their future, and ultimately their life story; all that they have gone through. My opinion on this book was that it was really eye opening because I didn’t realize how horrible people can be towards one another and it really showed me different situations that I only saw in movies or not at all. Not only did I learn a lot but I also learned not to be so quick as to judge them because you never know what they went through as a child or growing up. It also made me realize that I am very blessed for everything that I have, and also that just because my parents discipline me it’s because they want

There many disease flying on the air and some of those disease are incurable. Imagine being in pain for days without hope of resolving the issues. A person in pain would be relive if he/ or she can commit suicide.The problem is, terminally ill patients are in stress of dying. Does patients should be allowed to commit suicide because of pain?. How does family of patients cope with stress of paying bills? If the illed person did not commit suicide what will the side effects of medicines and treatments do to his body. What we must understand is that terminally ill people are in pain and don’t have the option to end their own suffering by committing suicide. By not giving them the option to die, we are installing their suffering and death. Person terminally ill should be able to decide when to end their own life

Every record put out by the world-class jazz bassist Christian McBride is well worth checking out. After digging Live at the Village Vanguard with his trio, the bassist returns to the big band format with Bringin’ It, an honorable follow-up to the 2011 Grammy Award winner The Good Feeling.

Visiting Barnard's Youtube channel and watching the video, 'Brilliantly Imperfect', I saw scrawled across a Muslim woman's graduation cap the statement, "children who carry the heartbeats of their motherland.” I thought about my parents and the journey we made from Egypt. Though they never had the opportunity to attend college, I could fulfill that dream for them. I could be like that Muslim woman.

Each and every country has a different method of disciplining their citizens to tell the truth within torture tactics. The Israelis are very adopted to abusing their own and using very little room for “moderate physical pressure”. I believe torture shouldn’t be legalized to be used on American citizens to protect America and make it safe again. I state this reasoning because after reading the article called “Believe me it’s torture” by Christopher Hitches it showed me that the torture techniques that are being used can really affect an individual’s physical, emotional, and psychological health.

This family lives in the south side of Chicago, while being faced with poverty. The mom, Monica, ran away and no longer gives the family support and the father, Frank, is a narcissistic drug and alcohol addict that steals money and food from the family. This leaves Fiona, the oldest sister, to tend for her other five siblings. This series shows the constant struggles that the family goes through in order to pay rent and keep each other out of trouble. The audience of this series tends to be the people that can afford cable and Netflix, so they are usually not the ones that are facing the same challenges as the Gallagher family. I see this as very important because it gives the readers a look into a poverty filled environment that they probably haven’t been apart of. Throughout the story, the Gallagher siblings meet people that want to help them and could possibly pull them out of the internal hell they are facing. But Fiona, the oldest sibling, routinely turns down these offers of help as they may pull her way from her siblings, or as she feels that they don’t deserve the help they are getting. She would rather have the family get out on their own instead of someone doing all the work for them. By doing things on their own, they find more about themselves and figure out that they can do more than they ever imagined given the circumstances of living under the poverty line in the unpredictable South Side of Chicago. This is the most powerful part of the show, this over powers the raw emotions viewers may withstand and any other powerful metaphors throughout the show. The Gallagher’s live by a very “blue-collar” mentality and aim to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and attack their daily struggles head on. I believe that seeing this mentality and way of life, it made me more motivated and changed my thoughts on what others may face on a day-to-day basis.

There are 3 different types of Heuristics. I decided to write about the Availability Heuristic. In the book, You Are Not So Smart by, David McRaney he explains how the availability heuristic is making a choice based on an immediate and easy example that comes to mind when evaluating a decision. Usually, this happens when you hear something from a friend or family member and immediately assume it is true without gathering any information, and just stop or continue whatever the problem was. When I was younger, I would always want dark hair. My mom at that time would not let me dye my hair. I remembered my aunt telling me that coffee was a good way to get darker hair. I quickly gathered all the materials and hid

In elementary school, I was never the smartest kid in my class. I wasn’t the dumbest either, but I certainly didn’t fit into the category of ‘gifted’. I envied the kids who could skip studying for the weekly spelling tests and breezed through their math tests as if they were nothing. For the most part, I was always just in the middle of the pack. When I got to high school and heard all of the talk of prepping for college, I knew I had to step up to the challenge. I began to put all of my time and effort into maintaining good grades throughout freshman, sophomore, and junior year. As a person who never stood out for academics, it was incredibly rewarding when I earned grades that rivaled those of the kids who were naturally intelligent.

As I was sitting down in freshman year I remember that we had an assignment in class and we did not have enough books and many pages were missing we had to share them. I think that school should be upgrade in many always because it's a great way of helping the children? Do we really care about there father and motivating to be success in life? It will also help them to be success more in class when they have the materials they need. For example can guys imagine the world without education or image the world without history or books what would the world do? also, can you pictured the children are not getting enough education as we should instead American children are using video games, watching TV, social network, only having to used technology

Studies have been conducted, on society, to explain why men play the role of alcoholics, aggressive, ad care-free individuals so well on TV. Some may have the question, “Is this assumption true?” A test was conducted by the authors, (Hope Landrine, Stephen Bardwell, and Tina Dean) who thought it was interesting to collect information, to come up with an answer that explains why and how men stereotypes began. If men are associated with stereotypes because of the stimuli, morals/beliefs, and hypermasculinity, then that explains why women don’t typically play the roles of drunken, or aggressive characters on TV. However, in recent years the roles are beginning to blend, and women are starting to take the role of the drunkenness, aggressive characters.

We are all people. We all have some things in common, and we also have our separate ways. In A Letter Home and Waiting for Dan, there are many similarities and many differences between the two protesters. But the similarities and differences that stand out the most are as follows.

Share an example of one of the most effective "pat on the backs" you have received. Describe the least effective. How did the two situations differ?

Small-town America is commonly “made fun” of because not very many people live in small towns. Small towns are not necessarily the minority, but the small amount of tem give the power to those who live in city and suburban settings. With that being said, I believe it can be observed that small-town America is satirized in Drop Dead Gorgeous. The main plot surrounding Drop Dead Gorgeous is a pageant set in a small town of Minnesota called Mount Rose. It is mentioned many times that the pageant is the only way out for a girl in Mount Rose. This is a very typical saying for small towns that there are few ways to actually leave the town. Throughout the film, not only does it give a satire of small towns, but it also satirizes the people.

Adulthood has consistently been shaped owing to the experiences and know-how learned in childhood, specifically from the central people and events during this time period. Hughes’s semi-autobiographical novel, Not Without Laughter, tells of the journey into adulthood of Sandy, who is constantly exposed to oppression and racism through his own experiences and those of his many family members. It follows his attempts to better himself for the sake of his family and the community. Sandy’s development throughout the novel is shaped by the lessons he learns with the help of views of the past from Hager and her religious beliefs, content for the present from neighborhoods such as “De Botoms” that show no aspiration , and hope of the future from Tempy’s
