Sudden Impact

In the first scene of Eastwood’s Sudden Impact, the audience is presented with a scene in which a car is surrounded by thick, dark fog, making the background difficult to make out. If not for the diegetic sound of the crashing waves a few hundred feet below the edge of the near by precipice, the audience would have a lack of sense of location. Already, the scene has an ominous feel to it thanks to the darkness of the scene and the remoteness of the location where nobody is there to witness what is

The determining male gaze projects its fantasy on to the female figure which is styled accordingly, in their traditional exhibitionist role women are simultaneously looked at and displayed with their appearance coded for strong visual and erotic impact so that they can be said to connote to-be-looked-at-ness Women displayed as sexual object is the leit-motiff of erotic spectacle: from pin ups to strip tease, from Ziegfield to Busby Berkeley, she holds the look, plays to and signifies male

enough modern day research, scientists have nailed the extinction of the Dinosaurs down to two major theories; the asteroid impact theory, and the volcanic eruption theory, both being extremely alike. As research has been undertaken, scientists have evaluated all possible theories, distinguishing that there are two major possibilities; the volcano theory and the asteroid impact theory. Both theories are highly comparable, yet both have distinguishing qualities that indicate their differences. The

and this is highlighted in many examples of media and literature. The nature of journeys also have an impact on the individual; the journey may be harsh, stressful or confusing. Anh Do’s The Happiest Refugee (2010) and Peter Skrzynecki's Migrant Hostel (1975) are two texts that convey the transformative, unstable, segregative and communicative nature of journeys. Journeys have a profound impact on the individual, and provocative experiences and new knowledge often cause a re-evaluation of perspectives

many. Some examples of the extinction theories are the toxic volcanic gasses and dust (Volcanism), asteroid impact on earth and climate change. Some scientists have suggested

asteroid impact 66 million years ago and its catastrophic effects on the global environment, including a lingering impact winter that made it impossible for plants and plankton to carry out photosynthesis. The fact

Rapid climate change also ends up on the suspect list of possible dinosaur extinction events. During the latter part of the Cretaceous Period continents broke up causing volcanoes to erupt and fill the sky with gas and ash resulting in a drastic climate change (“Dinosaurs Climate Change and Biodiversity”). The shifting of continents changed the Earth’s landscape, altering weather patterns and overall climate (“Dinosaur Extinction Theories”). Also, over a long period of time, climate gradually changed

had quite the effect on a large majority of other plant and animal species, to the point where no tetrapod (four-legged vertebrae) weighing above 25 kilograms survived. The original trigger is believed to have been a massive comet or an asteroid impact, estimated at about ten kilometers in size, but other theories suggest that volcanic eruptions, climate change, or sea level change played a role was well. Either way, there were catastrophic

responsible and use this for the advantage in future ,by diverting their focus on profits. The point is, all of a sudden, social entrepreneurship was everywhere and everyone wanted to be one. The key to sustainable capitalism is reasonable profits as opposed to maximizing profits. In the current system, a segment of society is trying to maximize profits without concern for the impact on the well being of the society as a whole, while another segment of social organizations have to deal with the

Cribbins 1 Hook. The extinction of dinosaurs is a mystery in itself that has stumped scientists all over the world for decades, and they still look for new answers every day. Scientists know some background information, but cannot connect the dots to see the bigger picture. There was little interest in the topic until Luis and Walter Alvarez proposed a groundbreaking hypothesis, which today we call the “Alvarez Hypothesis”. This new idea of the Alvarez’s was exciting, and therefore got the media
