...interesting to the public. These recordings are free from bias, and outside interests. This information can be regulated and limited by other rights in the country. All of this is part of the social responsibility theory of media. The Canadian media has regulations such as those stated in the Canadian Press Policy's “Everything that we do must be honest, unbiased and unflinchingly fair. We deal with facts that are demonstrable, supported by sources that are reliable and responsible.” The Canadian press fallows these regulations which leads to the public getting unbiased news from reliable sources. There is circumstances in Canada that make our media not as free and open as it could be. Regulations such as the Youth Criminal Justice Act allows youths to keep there privacy, and not release names to the public. Other circumstances would be when there is violent criminals, a recent case would be the arrow death in Kitchener, where the police are not giving out much information on where the shooter may be or what is happening with the investigation.

...Attitude: I do not write a lot since I got out of high school. I do text my parents with full paragraphs without using abbreviations. I really do not like writing, but if I have to then I will. With this class, I know I have to write and I’m willing to, but I might take longer writing in third person then first person with a topic I’m not familiar with. I am great at looking at a picture and can write a story based it. I feel comfortable writing in the English class as long as I have the time to write and think about my steps needed to write the paper. Inventory: When I took that quiz, I felt that is was accurate based on who I am. I was between being independent and social. I usually am social when I need to be but mostly independent. I was closely related to creative but was also close to pragmatic. Spatial had a five for a score. I am usually looking at the data and using it the way I think it works. I had a score of six for rational, I also had a score of five for concrete. My rational skills are high, and I think I would work on being more emotional about things that need it for writing. I believe that being concrete is good but being abstract is also a good thing. It gives the writer the big picture of their writing for a reader.

The Web 2.0 platforms specifically discussed in module two are Delicious, blogs, wikis (in general), The Wikipedia, Twitter, Flickr and YouTube.

...dedicated to understanding the many components of community vulnerability to natural and technological hazards and working to mitigate these issues. For post-disaster communities, I focus on the recovery process; what factors expedite or hinder recovery, how communities define recovery, and how to improve the recovery process for future disasters. As an applied, cultural anthropologist, I employ ethnographic field methods to look beyond demographic and census information and identify cultural practices and worldviews that influence human interactions with their environment, how communities and cultural groups apply meaning to traumatic events, and how they select which risks to address and which to ignore. Scheduled to defend my doctoral thesis on June 3, 2016, I will soon have my Ph.D. in cultural anthropology with a specialization in disasters.
