...Samvit Ram Macbeth Reflection I feel that group three, our group best defended the claim most effectively. Our claim was that the sequence of orders illustrates that as one focuses on attaining his ambitions immorally, their relationships suffer. Our group had many pieces of evidence to support it. for example when Rachel was explaining a quote on page 49 demonstrating that Macbeth and Banquo were friends. She later related this back to the claim saying that Macbeth ended up killing Banquo resulting in the destruction of their relationship. Rachel also had another piece of evidence explaining how Lady Macbeth’s relationships suffer. She explained her piece of evidence and related it back to the claim. I also believe we defended ours best because not many people tried questioning our claim. Branden did once but Priya and Rachel countered it with an answer. I also thought that group five did a nice job of defending their point. They had questions thrown left and right at them but they countered everything. Their interpretation was that as one persuades others to do his dirty work, the effects of these acts play less on one’s conscience. Their argument was well said. Cassie and Jeremy explained well using several pieces of evidence. They said that after Macbeth hired the murderers to kill banquo, he didn't feel as remorseful. After he killed Duncan, he showed sign of regret but this regret decreased after each murder. What I got from this book is that there...

...and what it means to a person. Identity is very important because it is who you are and why you are the way you are. There is also a lot of time invested in identity because it could take a person a lifetime to realize his identity and how to cope with it. The article states that identity is very complex and it is shaped by different dynamics. As I said finding one’s self and their identity takes time and this is done by continued reflection and observation. Identity can also be a defect to you because someone might judge you because of race, age, sexuality etc. An example of finding one’s self would be the story of Rachel Dolezal who is an American civil rights activist and who was a former teacher of Africana Studies. Rachel identifies herself as black, but allegations came up this summer when her white parents said that she was fake, and she is disguising herself as a black woman she's really not. Although Rachel denied this and said that her father is black, her parents showed the media a picture of a young blond-haired blue-eyed Rachel and also showed a copy of Rachel's birth certificate. This is what happens when someone is still figuring themselves out. Now I don’t know if she’s telling the truth or lying but all signs are pointing to a lie. This incident was very surprising amongst the black community, most saying that it’s a disgrace how someone who isn’t black pretends to be black like they have an idea of the hardships colored people go through day in and day...

As the semester ends I find myself reflecting not only on how I have survived the first semester but also what I have learned. Writing is hard work. There is so much more to it than just writing an interesting story. I also learned another important lesson; just because I worked hard on an essay before presenting it and reviewed the daylights out of it did not mean it was ready for submission. Every time I went back to read it I found new changes, typos and other mistakes I had missed before. Reviewing and revising an essay is an essential part of writing. Reviewing allows me to rewrite and make changes in the essay’s content, organization and sentence structures. It allows me to add, remove, move or substitute words to make sure it communicates effectively the purpose of the essay. The task of reviewing the essays...

...Inter-Cultural Translatability Of Ring Ashimova Aitolkyn East Asian Cinema, Fall 2015 December 18, 2015 Introduction The effect of 1998's Japanese film Ring can be compared to a big tsunami wave that not only became highest grossing horror film in the country, but also shuddered Taiwanese, Korean, Hong Kong film markets. Following years many publications included it to the numerous symbolic "top 10 most scary films" lists. And when Steven Spielberg bought the rights to make the Hollywood remake it was seen as official evidence that Japanese horror cinema became new trendsetter in this genre and gained cult status in the West. Nowadays with numerous follow-ups within the Ring franchise and triggered a trend of Western remakes "Ring" is viewed as exemplary illustrative Asian horror movie. I will argue that the wide success of the movie is caused not by its deep cultural ties with Japanese cinema and Japanese horror movies in particular, but because on the contrary "Ring" has little to do with its traditional background. Hideo Nakata deliberately cut off all the cultural traces in order to make cinematic language of the movie universal and cosmopolitan thus giving a way for its intercultural translation and to be easily replicated. In order to do it first I will analyze different Japanese merchandizing strategies and study the film as a media product. Second, I will briefly overlook history and main stylistic traits of Japanese horror movie genre. In my general overlook...

...In this Essay I was suppose to compare and contrast of the novel Speak by Laurie Ann and The movie Speak. As we talk about the novel and the movie my reflection has changed. First she was talking about how Mr. Neck was his nickname in the novel but in the movie it was his actual name. The Novel it shows that the family was sending notes to each other but in the movie they talk normal. In the Novel of speak it actually talks about more specific things like when Melinda went to the prom and she got into a fight Rachel. Hair woman also started as a dull person but through the season its like she got her a man or something because she started looking/dressing alive more colorful and the hair-cut.

...Hair trends of 2010 Hair style is a reflection of a human's personality. It depicts a person's confidence, comfort ability and coordination with the world. A flock of hair falling in front of one's eye is no more considered a lack of attention but as a style statement. And who doesn't agree today, that to appear in everyone's heart you got to maintain your appearance. Hair takes a huge portion of it. there had been trends in hair fashion since the beginning of time, there was bob or finger wave as some called it in the 20s, the pixie in the 50s popularized by none other than Audrey Hepburn! Hair styles were not only inspired by movie stars but there was a huge fad about musicians and bands. Beehive, the style of 50s and 60s were an influence of a band named Georgia, dreadlocks of the 70s was a sheer craze brought by Bob Marley. Then there was perm in the 80s, I can still recall aunties coming from beauty parlors with stiff volumes over their head with stinging smell of chemicals. All the 'Friends' lover can't ignore the immensely loved 'the Rachel' cut with a layered, bouncy ‘do with highlights and lowlights. "Rachel" cut became famous in the 90s. In 2010, reminiscence from the past seems to have a comeback. Bobs are back in road, stars like Reese Witherspoon and Gwyneth Paltrow are doing it and looking stunning. Long, wavy hairs are always accepted, wanted and adored! And most importantly, this year the waves should look as natural as possible! Either with heavy...

...The Things We Took Away Orleanna simply says it best: “We can only speak of the things we carried with us, and the things we took away”(10). The five Price women enter the Congo with certain things: a stainless-steel thimble, materialistic tendencies, Betty Crocker cake mixes, white privilege, ivory hand mirrors, and stereotypical American ignorance, to name a few. However, the things they leave with are significantly different. They took away a sense of enlightenment, worldly balance, guilt, and shame from Africa, and, most importantly, the loss of Ruth May. Throughout The Posionwood Bible, the Congo molded the Price women, it shaped their souls. Orleanna, Rachel, Leah, Adah, and Ruth May were all affected by their time in the Congo, varying greatly in their final philosophical perceptions— they lie on a spectrum of apathy to deliberating guilt, with cynicism, realism, and balance speckled throughout the...

...Reflection Summary Gene Kimball, Rachel Diaz, Nikki Smith ECON/372 June 1, 2014 Spyridon Patton Reflection Summary A supply chain is the system of organizations, people, activities, information, and resources required to put a product or service in motion. Activities of the supply chain change natural resources, raw materials, and components into a final product that is delivered to the consumer or customer. In some supply chains; used products can come back into the supply chain in a recycling value. In other words a supply chain is when all of the parties involved are directly or indirectly working for customers. This includes transportation, warehouses, retailers and customers. All of this creates a dynamic and constant flow of information. Walmart is a good example of a supply chain. When a customer buys a product is has been in inventory at the warehouse, delivered by a truck by the manufacturer who deals with packaging and raw materials. Supply and demand is an economic model of price determination in a market. For example, in a competitive market, the unit price for a specific good will vary until it settles at a point where the quantity demanded by consumers, at current price, will equal the quantity supplied by producers, at current price. This results in economic equilibrium for price and quantity. The supply and demand is controlled by the demand of a product, which in turn creates supply. The model shows where the point determines prices and quantities...

...Sociological Reflections on High School: a media analysis of Glee The following is a paper I wrote for a sociology class and I have been thinking alot about group dynamics and fitting in and the difference a close knit group of friends can make in one person's life...more on that topic to come. The minority to be analyzed is the subordinate group in the high school environment. More specifically: how can membership in a subordinate group perceived as “bottom of the rung”, enhance the cohesiveness of that socially subordinate group in the adolescent environment, and how does the subgroup attempt to overcome the negative perception imposed on them? The hypothesis being that members of a social group with specific goals, perceived as subordinate and influenced by the social superiority of their peers will bond as a result of common social maltreatment as well as common goals. The results of this study can provide an understanding of the realistic ability for high school aged children to develop healthy relationships despite their subordinate status within their social environment and whether this idea is accurately represented in the media. Literature Review In addressing the concrete definition and study of cohesion, Moody and White explain the ongoing issue of cohesion this way: “Although questions about social cohesion lie at the core of our discipline, definitions are often vague...
