Thank You M Am Analysis

I enjoyed Anri Sala’s “Answer Me” at the New Museum. The art Sala created was able to use visual and sound as a way to relate to one another.

Some art pieces were striking, while some left me wondering what was the meaning behind it.

Not having a dad might not sound to bad to some people. When that dads always making fun of his kids, or making his kids mad, his children may not want a dad anymore. Doug Swieteck from the book Okay for Now by Gary Schmidt would feel like he doesn't need a dad. Not having a dad would sound good too Doug because the dad he knows acts like a real jerk to him. He influences other people in the book which make him feel good, unlike his dad. These people give Doug the motivation he needs to keep him from ending up like his dad. Doug gets guidance and learns from Mr. Powell, Mr. Ballard, and Mrs. Cowper throughout his time in Marysville.

Technology of the past was welcomed with open arms due to the fact that a majority of the time it helped solve problems plaguing us such as providing us with medical cures or developing machines that are able to prepare a warm meal quicker. However, with such problems solved, a lot of technology today is centered around keeping our population with longer life expectancies entertained, especially with one major creation that has shifted the way that we live--the Internet.

Although Clive says that employees at Lifeline can never be sure if their call saves someone, Peter Ho Davies, author of “I Don’t Know, What Do You Think?” implies that Clive has the opportunity to save Mary from killing herself. However, he does not utilize this opportunity, and Mary commits suicide. The author indicates that Clive could have saved Mary's life if he disregarded his detached approach to issues established within him by the death of his child, his wife's discouragement, and the Lifeline procedures. Clive never confronts his feelings about Carol’s death, which suggests that he is incapable of managing grief. When Helen finds Clive crying over Mary’s death, he tells her that he is crying for Carol, and Helen says, “at last,” (Davies

Throughout the article “This Is What I Do,” the author Professor David Chioni Moore explains and evaluates the state of jazz and jazz criticism. Moore argues that although jazz experts use recordings to analyze so-called “works of art,” these recordings are not true representations of the artistic value of jazz music.

Due to copyright laws, musicians did not receive money for the records that they sold, making them less inclined

In my “This I Believe” essay about stress I tried to use a combination of ethos and pathos as a way to appeal to my audience which happens to be college students Regarding ethos I used this rhetoric because anyone with morals will feel some sort of sympathy for someone who feeling is stressed or depressed therefore evoking emotion out of the audience. Not only that but I tried to promote positivity within my essay because only talking about the negative effects of stress would be counterproductive to the essay itself since it isn’t supposed to be preachy or negative so therefore I tried to incorporate some things that my audience could use to overcome stress such as going to counselors,friends,families, and their fraternity or sorority by

Robbie Lawler has slowly climbed the hill back to a title rematch with welterweight champion Tyron Woodley, but former lightweight champion Rafael Dos Anjos plans to send him tumbling down the welterweight rankings on Saturday in Winnipeg. The fight between Lawler and Dos Anjos headlines a loaded UFC Fight Night card in Canada.

In Langston Hughes short story “Thank You Ma’am” he uses different themes throughout the story. There is kindness, love, and trust, which is very ironic considering that young boy Roger did try to steal Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones purse at the beginning of this story. Even though he was trying to steal from her, she never called the police and she never judged him because no one should ever judge a book by its cover.
