I have never seen such ambitiousness and hope, I was amazed how strong everyone in the video were, not just Arthur and William ,but also their family and friends. Such attitude and hard work is what we real need to be successful. There were so many obstacles that were in both of the players yet they fought for what they love and their goals. The Hoop Dreams show how our system is set to only benefit those who have the money not those who have the dream and the skills. If william and Arthur had a stable financial, their life would have been so much easier to make it to the professional level.

In addition to the fight, the boys are once again thrown together to grab all the coins that they can. More concerned with doing what they are told and seizing the coins than pain they experience,

When watching the movie "Nell" starring Jodie Foster and Liam Nelson, the viewers are in for quite a surprise when they see the young girl in the film. The movie was made in 1994 so it is a pretty old movie but still has very good quality. In "Nell" a young girl is secluded in the woods while she lived with her mother. When a young boy was delivering groceries, he discovered that the mother had passed away and that is when police and a doctor found a young girl living there. She seemed to have something wrong with her and was frightened by other people like she had never seen anyone else except her mother. She had a severe speech impediment and she was very hard to understand. The doctor "Jerry" took the time to figure out what was wrong with her and he came to find out that she used to have a twin sister and they had a unique language of their own.

When you turn on the tv on a typical March day what’s usually what you see on ESPN and other major sport news channels? Give you a hint NCAA Basketball. The NCAA is a multi-Billion dollar “Industry” that gets a lot of attentions of its fans. The other side of the coin in the NCAA is not as happy as it seems like when someone wins a National Title. Many Players devote their time to be there, some without any resources just hard work and just hope of making it pro and having a Multi-million dollar contract to not only play the sport they love but to have the money they need to have a house to live, food to eat, and everything possible needed to live a life.

There are three basic elements in which one can find in any game show (game theory) and those three basic elements are “the players, the strategies available to each player, and the payoffs each player receives for each possible combination of strategies” (Frank, Bernanke, and Johnston 252). The game show known as Golden Balls is no different because one can see the players, strategies and outcome in the game. Golden Balls involves decision making and can be looked at in an economic perspective because economics is decision making.

I only used the tactics that I was familiar with and I had no awareness of using other tactics such as avoidance. Before the activity, I assumed that I could spend a large amount of time trying to persuade the opponent to agree to the desired outcomes, however, the manager in the first round was direct

The Collaborating tactic may be used when your whole objective on the conflict is to learn. Also it is a good idea to use the Collaborating tactic when you want to work through feeling that have interfered with the relationship with the other person in the conflict. Competing tactic is excellent when you want to cut the through all of the non sense and get to a resolution of the conflict quickly. When quick decisive resolutions are very important, or when people attempt to disagree with you and your right without a doubt. The last tactic that Rahim and Magner talk about is the Compromising tactic. This is good for when, goals are important to you but they are not worth all the trouble they may cause. To achieve rather quick and easy resolutions to rather complex disagreements

The Prisoner’s Dilemma is an extremely popular game and way of thinking about social interactions and also economics. It judges how people work together and against each other. It helps us understand what governs the balance between cooperation and competition in business, in politics, and in social settings. The two players in the game can choose between two moves, either 'cooperate' or 'defect'.
