“The way eyesight and the eye itself are inseparable, anger is closely tied to the ego. Your success of transforming anger and reaching higher states of awareness depends on one skill – the ability to recognize your mental patterns and calling out the egocentric behavior” (Tadas 2012). Things Fall Apart, written by Chinua Achebe depicts one man ultimately failing at proving himself worthy of bravery through struggle to find peace within himself, regarding various encounters of selfishness and neglecting his family. Though Okonkwo, the main character is a respected leader in the Umuofia tribe of the Ibo people, his life is dominated by anger and fear of becoming his father- a man known for laziness and lack of bravery. Things Fall Apart accurately portrays contrast between egocentrism and altruism through Okonkwo’s inability to fathom the significance of family; and unfortunately, emotional instability prevents Okonkwo and present-day African Americans from playing nurturing role in African American homes.

Vision and the act of looking is an important and recurring theme in many horror films. In early gothic literature, such as in Guy de Maupassant 's Le Horla, the author presents vision as definitive and universal proof and stresses the importance of seeing as well as the act of showing gore. As a society, we are routinely told ‘seeing is believing ' in the wake of any paranormal or supernatural phenomena, placing weight on the tangible. However, as science and technology have progressed the faithfulness of visual representation is increasingly throw into question, which in turn has led to societal anxiety. A few years earlier, video footage of an event rarely had its validity questions, whereas now it is easy

The distinctively visual is a prominent characteristic in which the composer shapes a unique visual perspective for the responder to interpret. Using a variety of techniques and languages, the composer is distinctively able to create vibrant and lively visualisations within their work. The poetry of Douglas Stewart, in particular ‘Lady feeding the cats’ and ‘Nesting time’ and the image of ‘’Firefighters at twin towers attack’’ photographed by Todd Maisel are particularly effective. Douglas’ poems uniquely portray ordinary people and outsiders at touching and meaningful moments, experiences and connection with nature that creates an image to the reader the relationship of man and nature and how nature can challenge

ABSTRACT: The aim of this paper is to defend a broad concept of visual perception, according to which it is a sufficient condition for visual perception that subjects receive visual information in a way which enables them to give reliably correct answers about the objects presented to them. According to this view, blindsight, non-epistemic seeing, and conscious visual experience count as proper types of visual perception. This leads to two consequences concerning the role of the phenomenal qualities of visual experiences. First, phenomenal qualities are not necessary in order to see something, because in the case of blindsight, subjects can see objects without experiences phenomenal

Famous businessperson once said “To succeed, one must be creative and persistent.” This fits perfectly to the mindset of Peninsula Catholic High School because they every year find new ways to get creative with the material along with staying persistent with some things. The balance is perfect to lead a student to a bright future.

The vision was not created in isolation by key players within the school but it was a shared vision created by all staff members. So many times educational leaders create school vision’s in isolation and then try to sell their vision to school stakeholders and it doesn’t work well. By creating the shared vision it gave each faculty member a voice in the process. The members of the staff have a sense of ownership to this vision and are more likely to believe it and live it and help sell it to the students. The community stakeholders also share in this vision because they had a voice in the process of selecting a vision for the school as well. Each school is different in student make up, staff members, school leaders, community partners and a pleather of other features but each schools vision must be learning centered with the 21st century workforce as a driving factor in its

To everyone involved in my foundation, including my staff, board of directors, sponsors, and most importantly, the young students we reach, our work is more important than ever. Thirteen years ago, my dad and I envisioned helping young people achieve their dreams through education. This work remains unchanged and will continue to grow.

Carver College and Career Academy’s mission is to increase the focus on graduating students who are prepared to succeed in a workplace and society. The target market is students for the fact that the students are the future, and it is very imperative that the students receive the best education in order for them to become successful in their lives after high school. By accomplishing the school’s mission the school board ensure that the students receive the finest education from teacher’s that are patient, determined, responsible, respectful, honest, empowering and can see success in every student after they graduate.

Carver College and Career Academy classes are very small, you will most likely see 5-10 students in a classroom on a daily basis; this will allow the student to have one on one time with their teachers and
