...Eminem – Lose Yourself After analyzing ‘Lose Yourself’ by Eminem, I’ve understood Eminem’s emotion in this song. He raps about taking a chance at success and being able to take it without anyone stopping him. He also refers to the movie 8 mile, where he failed his first chance and knew that his second opportunity he had to succeed. Analyzing the lyrics, with all the expression he has on him he’s starting to lose his desire and momentum of being an artist. At one point he says “A normal life is boring, but super stardom's close to post mortem” which means that having a normal life is boring, but being a superstar is almost being dead. Eminem feels like being a superstar is a lot of pressure and the expectation levels are very high because you need to keep producing content that is bigger and better which he said in this sentence “It only grows harder, only grows hotter”. He’s been through tough times in his career and tries his best to gain respect from other rappers in the industry. My final thoughts on this analysis would be that this song is about his tough times and what he goes through in his career and he truly does a great job expressing it in ‘Lose Yourself’. Everyone in life goes through tough situations and I can reflect on this when it comes to school grades. As I explained in the following paragraph “It only grows harder, only grows hotter” means you have to produce better content for better results is something I can reflect on. It’s never easy to get good...

...money and efforts on quick-result promising diets to lose weight. However, by following some simple steps, you can definitely obtain successful results on weight loss and become slimmer. The first step is absolutely motivation. Once you’ve made up your mind, you should act determinedly. Undoubtedly, determination is the key to success. Even if all conditions are provided completely, lack of motivation results unsuccessfully. For instance, I recently read that a 116 kg-weighted young Mexican boy’s dream was to become a basketball player. You may reckon this looks unrealizable and impossible to attain. But he achieved his goal, he is now 67 kg and plays in the local basketball team. After being motivated completely to your goal, the second step is to provide a regular life with healthy diet. Several researches show us that sleeping more than 6 hours causes a gain of weight for adults. Likewise, eating more than your body needs is also an important reason to get weight. Avoiding food with fat and sugar will be very efficient to help you to lose weight. Changing your life style might be difficult at the beginning, but in time, when you start to lose your first kilos, you’ll get used to it. The last step to support your healthy life and to keep your weight at the desired level, is to join sport activities according to personal interest. It’s common that people who try to lose weight or who already succeeded in losing their extra weight...

...Electric guitars and staggering statistics shared a Central Park audience of more than 60,000 people on Saturday at the Global Citizen Festival, a five-hour concert held on Central Park’s Great Lawn devoted to ending extreme poverty worldwide. The music line-up—which included Neil Young with Crazy Horse, Band of Horses, The Black Keys, The Foo Fighters, K’Naan and surprise guest John Legend—performed free-of-charge to the public to highlight issues of hunger, poverty, polio and malaria. But while the simulcasted event’s intention was to increase awareness of worldwide social inequity, the overall message of altruism fell flat. Two hours before the concert’s start time, the attendees flooded the Great Lawn. Petition holders representing UNICEF, Half the Sky, The End of Polio and Charity Water descended upon the crowd to collect signatures to encourage future involvement in their respective charitable causes. Surprisingly, the charity volunteers were not well received by the music lovers. Many attendees walked away, or, responded with “leave me alone” before the volunteers could utter a word. The apathy, and the resulting cold responses, lasted from the time of admission to when the opening band stepped foot on the stage. It is odd that attendees shrugged their shoulders at the ambassadors; yet, they lit up when the musicians advocating for the same charities began performing, especially given the timely message. The concert was scheduled around the meeting of the United...

...research underpinning low-carbohydrate diets has grown significantly in the decades of the 1990s and 2000s.Most of this research centers on the relationship between carbohydrate intake and blood sugar levels, as well as some related hormone levels. Some evidence suggests blood sugar levels in the human body should be maintained in a fairly narrow range to maintain good health. The two primary hormones that regulate blood sugar levels are insulin, which lowers blood sugar levels, and glucagon, which raises blood sugar levels. These are both produced in the pancreas insulin from beta cells and glucagon from alpha cells. It is recommended by Grosvenor and Smolin in “Nutrition: From Science to Life,” that if one decides to lose weight, one should consider the contents of the food consumed and...

...Questions 1. As depicted by Marsha’s actions and reactions in the case, I believe that Marsha uses the lose-lose conflict management style. Additionally, Marsha uses the avoidance conflict management style when she responds to the news from a co-worker about the amount of her percentage increase. She is clearly bothered by the information, however she avoids the issue – hoping and waiting that Fred would initiate a discussion and the pay increase be handled according to the dean’s guidelines. This particular style influenced this situation as Marsha did not help herself nor Fred; instead she internalized and carried her frustration. a. Marsha had substance goals, which are goals that deal with outcomes that are related to the content issues under negotiation (Uhl-Bien, Schermerhorn, and Osborn, 2014). Marsha’s goals were to be recognized by Fred for her contributions and impact on the department, plan her goals for the upcoming year and to be compensated adequately for her level of performance. b. Based on Fred’s goals for the performance levels of the department and wanting to reward performance and restore pay equity, Marsha would most likely have had more successful if she had leveraged a collaborative conflict management approach. 2. As demonstrated by his actions, I believe Fred utilizes both the win-lose and the lose-lose...

...Lilia Canales ENGL 1301 C. Richardson October 09, 2012 Easy steps to losing weight Obesity has become one of the most delicate health problems in America today. If you’re like most people, you might have trouble controlling your weight. Maybe it’s under control, but it won’t go down to where you’d like it to be. There are several steps to a process that helps you lose weight. Remember, you have to be focused and be dedicated in order to meet your anticipated goal of losing weight. The first step is to weigh yourself and chart it. Each morning, weigh yourself on a digital scale and log it. However, your weight can be used as feedback to see what you’re doing right and motivate you. You can even go to a dietitian which can tell you how much of your body percentage is fat and muscle. A dietitian can also help you make a diet plan which can simplify your way to reach your body weight goal. There are plenty of magazines that focus on tips and motivation to those who are struggling to lose those extra pounds of body fat. The second step is planning your diet. Decide what eating schedule fits you well and how many calories a day you will intake. After that, choose your meals and make sure they are measured in the right portions. It is normal to get appetite between meals; in this case, you must have healthy snacks at reach like, granola bars, fruits, yogurt and vegetables according to your calorie count. You can also turn unhealthy meals into healthy ones. For example, if...

...The first step in my plan to lose weight is to understand how to lose weight. The first step is easy to understand the explanation of exactly what is required for weight loss to take place. How it happens, why it happens, and most important of all... what you need to do in order to make it happen. You will need to know this in order to create your weight loss diet plan in step two. You need to know you’re calorie deficit, which is giving your body less calories than it needs. Weight loss is all about calories and more specifically, it's about creating a calorie deficit. You need to end up burning more calories than you consume. If your daily calorie maintenance level is 3000 calories, you will lose weight if you started eating 2500 calories a day. You would gain weight if you ate 3500 calories a day. By subtracting 500 calories from your maintenance level is the magic weight loss number here. The reason for that is because there are about 3500 calories in 1 pound of fat. So, if you ate 500 less calories each day for 7 days, it would equal the 3500 less calories required to lose 1 pound. So, by eating 500 calories below your daily maintenance level, you would lose about 1 pound per week. Now would be a good time to mention that the healthy, safe, good, smart, and all around right amount of weight to lose for most people is 1 or 2 pounds a week. Reducing your calorie intake by so much so fast is wrong, unsafe, unhealthy, bad, and stupid. You'd end up losing muscle instead of fat...

...They make people take part in a game event called Hunger Games, where the contestants are put against each other in a survival of the fittest esque scene and a fight to the death with only one victor to share the tales of bravery. Katniss Everdeen, a brave and talented girl is put into the Hunger Games and somehow survives the games, along with her partner Peeta Melark. This causes an uproar in Panem and suddenly things are thrown off scale. As people are preparing for war, Katniss is wondering where she fits, who she should trust and what is better for all of the people in Panem. Throughout the book, Katniss ponders over whether it’s even worth fighting a war and losing more loved ones. One lesson that the story suggests is that when you lose someone you love, it makes you stronger and weaker at the same time. The book is divided into three large parts, with smaller chapters in those parts. The names of the parts reveal some sort of information. The first part, “The Ashes” and the events of the previous book can be interpreted even before reading, that the Ashes are going to be of District 12’s. From the very beginning, she sees her home burnt and destroyed by bombings. The description is clear enough and it shows that a part of Katniss was burnt in the inferno that destroyed her dear home. Suzanne Collins uses short and effective lines that creates and enhances the mood further. Also, the vocabulary used emphasis’ on Katniss’ battle between conscious. She doesn’t know...
