...order for us to prevent our terrors to become a weakness. Being afraid of something can mean that you are facing a superior force in which you feel inferior to. Knowing you’re facing something bigger and more powerful can trigger that effect on your body and mind to try to abstain away from danger. One great example of fear is the one they instituted in North Korea. This nation is a ‘’population mind control by fear’’ (psyche truth). Despite the terrible and horrible living conditions, the North Korean people have never protested against their communist government. If you’re accused of political dissension the military will take you and your family into a labor camp, in which you will endure hard labor until the day of your death. They will never protest because they fear that 3 generations will be doomed to death (psyche truth). Another example of a group controlling or incorporating fear to achieve their personal goals is the news. They show how dangerous the outside world is and we’re intrigued by the fact there is something out there that will put our life into risk, this makes us want to know more about the subject, therefore; news will get more and higher ratings. Instead of fearing danger we find ourselves attracted and pulled into it which is odd to...

... Sarah looked over her shoulder, Reyes and Emma talking… A lot. Like almost sense she came off stage. Why did this make her feel sick? Not morning sickness sick, just worried sick. She turned around and mechanically began following her classmates out when Sean who was at the head of the group stopped and craned his head around in Emma’s direction. The queasy sensation doubled and for a second she wondered if she was just imagining beginning to sweat or if that was really happening. His expression was neutral, so maybe this had nothing to do with her. They were all teachers, teachers talk to one another, she tried to reason. He was talking in his normal voice to the class, giving instructions to go to the danger room and wait for an instructor, ok totally normal. Then he called her out, would he have said only for a moment if Reyes had said… No, well maybe… no way to tell, Banshee had always been far nicer of the two instructors. She forced a smile and let herself be led from the room. ……… At the back of the auditorium Brice watched his girlfriend, ordinarily he loved her passion...

...I.Introduction A.Opening Device: Your hiking down a path minding your own business when suddenly a large brown bear comes out of no where. What do you do? Do you run? Do you play dead? B.Thesis Statement: This evening I will inform you about how to react to a brown bear attacks. Preview of Main Points: I will tell you about how common brown bear attacks are, how to prevent bear attacks, and what do to when you are face to face with one. Body A.Brown bear attacks are not that common. According to Websters Dictionary a brown bear is “ any of several bears predominantly brown in color that are usually considered a single species including the grizzly bear and that formerly inhabited western North America from the barrens of Alaska to Northern Mexico and much of Europe and Asia but are now much restricted in range.” According to Yellowstone National Park's website, www.nps.gov/yell, the chances of a bear attack in their park is approximately 1in 2 million. You are 10 times more likely to be attacked by a dog than a brown bear. (Even though the chances of a bear attack are low you should still know how to prevent one.) B.Do research as to where you are staying to see if there are bears in the area. If you believe there is a bear around you shouldn't be stealthy. Do not bury garbage into the ground. Do not feed a bear at all, according to www.dnr.alaska.gov a biologist named Dick Shideler, with the Department of Fish and Game in Fairbanks...

...In 2004, one of the most notorious albums was made, The Grey Album. It consisted of Jay-Z’s Black Album and The Beatle’s White Album. DJ Danger Mouse created this mash-up album without the permission of Jay-Z or The Beatles. The album included acapellas and instrumentals from both of the albums. As of result of this, recording company EMI filed a cease-and-desist letter to Danger Mouse as he started to distribute and sell the album. A fellow music group by the name of Negativland released a song with the name U2 on the front cover. Negativland sampled the song “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking for” and outtakes from the host of American Top 40, Casey Kasem. Negativland never received permission to use any of U2’s work. As soon as Negativland released the album for retail, recording company Island Records and Warner-Chappell Music filed a lawsuit against Negativland and their record company. The lawsuit ended with Negativland recalling all the copies of the single and having to pay over $70,000 in damages and legal costs. Artists should not be allowed to use each other’s work. According to the case study, Negativland claims “Our work is an authentic and original whole, being much more than the sum of its samples”. In other words, Negativland does acknowledge that they in fact did use U2’s work but it should be looked at as more than that. Negativland’s work is not original and is just refurbished pieces of some other artist’s work. It’s been said that true creativity is...

...PREPARATION AND THE TEMPERATURE DANGER ZONESafe temperatures mean 45 F or below and 140 F or above. Any temperaturebetween 45 F and 140 F is considered to be in the TEMPERATURE DANGER ZONE.Food products have to be in the danger zone at some time during their preparation.However, 3 hours is the maximum time that a food can be in the danger zone withoutbecoming dangerously contaminated. After 3 hours in the danger zone, enoughbacteria can grow to cause foodborne disease outbreaks. Unfortunately, a food doesnot have to be in the danger zone for 3 consecutive hours to become a health hazard.The time accumulates; that is, each separate period which exposes the food to dangerzone temperatures counts toward the 3-hour limit. For example, a frozen food is to beprepared. First, the food has to be thawed. The thawing period places the food in thedanger zone. Later, the food may be mixed with other food items or chopped or cut.This again exposes the food to dangerous temperatures. In addition, the food may becontaminated from contact with other foods or utensils. If the food is left sitting at roomtemperature, it once again is in the danger zone. From this example, you can see that itis very easy for food to stay in the danger zone for 3 hours or more. When inspectingfood preparation procedures at a full-service food facility, you must determine thatpersonnel are following procedures to minimize the time that potentially hazardous fooditems remain in the danger...

The power of colours cannot be denied, more so, as it is the soul instance of life on earth.

...Light brings with it a spectrum of something called colour. Colour is included in everything we as part of our daily routine. It has an undeniable impact on our lives and differentiates people’s personalities. Each and every colour symbolizes different things to different people and triggers different emotions. We get attracted to certain colours and use those specific colours because they are what appeal to us the most. They reflect our inner attitudes and emotional states. Learning about colour and understanding the concept of it will help us make colour a way of life and not just something we know exists. Using cool colours such as blue and green in all our things helps us relax and keep calm so people are recommended to have things of these colours around them in their place of work. The colour red is mostly associated with danger that’s why traffic signals use red as stop and most casinos use red decorations to get the customer to stay longer. These are just a couple of examples of the impact of colour in our lives. Each colour has a positive and negative effect on each individual it depends on what they relate that colour to. For example I would relate red to love while another person might relate it to blood, or I would relate pink to being girlish while on the other hand someone would relate it to being sick. Colour depends on a person’s perception of the connection that they make. Colour has a very important impact on our lives. I don’t think any of us can imagine...

...1 Student Sample Symbolism in the Golden Movie Beauty and the Beast When one thinks of Beauty and the Beast, pictures may appear of a golden dress, a pink rose, or a Beast outfitted in blue. This brightly colored movie is a favorite for many Disney loving children and adults. In Beauty and the Beast, “the tale as old as time” is depicted through the symbolism of the carefully selected colors as Belle finds her way to the Beast. The town’s people’s attire is dull: bleak browns, greens, and reds; this shows the conformity of the people and the simple mindedness of the town. Belle’s Papa’s green attire shows conformity as well. No matter how hard he tries to break out and be different, he is always sucked back and consumed by the poor provincial town. Then when Belle becomes happier in the castle, she is depicted in the same green because she is conforming to the castle life and ceasing to push back and long to be free. After connecting with Belle, the Beast changes into the same green. This wardrobe change represents the Beast’s desire to be what Belle wants and what he needs to be to break the spell. Gaston, the manly-man antagonist, is shown wearing a bright red shirt with a mustard collar. The mustard is a mock gold; this shows his need to be first, to be royal. He craves the attention he rakes in. The red signifies hostility. The combination of these colors displays his selfish appetite for power. In the Beast’s introduction and throughout the beginning of the movie, he wears...

...Ashley Craig Mrs. Olivier English II Pd.4 3/21/16 For my research paper the question I settled on was: How does Fitzgerald use symbolism concerning the American dream? Fitzgerald uses personification and the colors: green, red, white, yellow, blue, grey, and purple to symbolize the truth and principles within and about the American dream. The colors mentioned the most and used to enforce a greater meaning in the Great Gatsby are: green, yellow, red, blue, grey and white. Each color is a crucial detail in the book relating to intentions and foreboding. Throughout the history of literature colors have been used as motif. *add quote about color motifs in literature* Red commonly means power, danger, passion and love. Yellow is associated...

...Green is one of the most used symbolic colors in the novel behind white, gold and yellow. Green represents a couple different things according to when this is said, “So besides the disillusionment of dream, the green light also represents new hope and the ceaseless struggle towards our dream”(Zhang, CS Canada). The color green symbolizes new hope, a disillusionment of a dream, and a ceaseless struggle towards the American dream. The American dream is the idea that every U.S citizen should have an equal opportunity to achieve success. The American dream was very popular among many Americans during this time. Daisy had a green light on her docks, and that was visible from Gatsby’s house. Gatsby looked out at that light very because he still had feelings for Daisy. When Fitzgerald says, “Involuntarily I glanced seaward and distinguished nothing except a single green light, minute and far away, that might have been the of the dock”(Zhang, CS Canada),it gives us more information about the green light. As Gatsby is looking out to sea there are many things that could catch his eyes, but the only thing he notices is the green light at the end of the dock. Fitzgerald makes it clear that Gatsby made a very close connection with the light when he writes “Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that’s no matter tomorrow...

...Color psychology is the study of hues as a determinant of human behavior and is a form of nonverbal communication. Colors are not static energy and its description can change from one day to the next depending on the individual - it all depends on what energy you are experiencing and trying to express at that point in time. Color influences perceptions not obvious, such as the taste of food, and often has different meanings in various cultures. In Western societies, the meanings of colors have changed over the years, like death and taxes, there is no escaping colors in our world. So, the question is why are people more relaxed in green rooms and why do weightlifters do their best in blue gyms? Perhaps by reading this illustration of color...

...previous day of her reading the letter. The only time a person has a flash back memory is when an unexpected event in a person’s life occurs that has strong emotional associations, such as fear, horror, or joy (233 Ciccarelli). With that being said, Clare could also be talking about the time when she and Irene saw her father being brought in after dying in a saloon-fight. With them experiencing an unexpected emotional event like that in both of their lives at a young age, it makes that situation hard to forget. “Seen across the long stretch of years, the thing had more the appearance of an outpouring of pent-up fury than of an overflow of grief for her dead father (2 Larsen). I think with Clare having ivory skin, a scarlet mouth, and a green frock is important to her description because it helps her ‘Pass’ without people having second thoughts of her true identity. The Ivory skin is the most important out of all the others because that’s the first thing people notice when looking at Clare. Ivory is a neutral color that isn’t quite white, but is mixed with shades of light brown. It carries some of the same characteristics as white...

...hummingbirds prefer bright colors opposed to darker colors. The hummingbird has a red throat so considering that I would think they prefer red or something similar to red when it comes to picking flowers to visit. Research Ruby-throated Hummingbirds are primarily in the United States. These small birds are hard to find in the sky because they are only 2-3 in and can flap their wings 53 times in one second. That’s kind of hard to believe or even imagine. When it comes to the type of feeder a hummingbird feeds on doesn’t really matter. They tend to eat from any kind of feeder. When it comes to flowers they prefer, red and yellow are their preference. Experiment Materials: Hummingbirds, red flowers, blue flowers, yellow flowers, green flowers. Instructions: Place flowers 10 feet apart, release the hummingbirds from their cages and see which flowers they’re attracted to. Make a chart with tally’s for how many times to hummingbirds chose each flower. By doing this you’ll be able to tell which color they prefer more. Analysis...

...The Color Red In Director Sam Mendes’ American Beauty, Cinematographer Conrad Hall utilizes great lengths of visual silence to signify the enveloping, jarring presence of Lester Burnham’s own, imaginary world. Conrad Hall also creates startling visual silence when intensely focusing upon each character of American Beauty, and consistently morphs the lack of apparent objects into an inconspicuous focus on the striking color of Red. Through this enigmatic color, Conrad incessantly portrays the goal and lifelong desire of every character in the movie, starting with Lester Burnham. Each character is faced with a dream that is not recognized starting from the opening scene, but becomes gradually apparent through the blatant indication of Conrad’s color choice on various objects in each subsequent plot point. There are numerous shades of red as well; contrasting between each character’s superficial appearance, such as Jane’s distinct albeit crude lipstick, and the essential, authentic item of desire, such as Angela Haye’s falling rose petals in Lester’s fantasies. With the brilliant amalgamation of red and specified isolation of Lester, Jane, Carolyn and Ricky, along with the enveloping shades of gray in between, Conrad imparts a language of film unique to his own perspective: telling a story not through the conversations of character, but through the stark contrasts of color and use of varied visual silence. Lester Burnham first sights the color red through the lovely, soft rose...
