...United 93 In 2006 a movie called United 93 was released in theatres all over the world. It was directed by Paul Greengrass, who is from England. The theme is terror and is about what happened to the fourth and final hijacked plane on 9/11. This movie tells the story of both what went on inside the plane with the passengers and the terrorists, and what happened “behind the scenes” in the FAA and in the flight control towers all over USA. Already when the film was produced, some people thought it was too early for a movie on this subject and disrespectful to the families of the victims. But was it really too early after 5 years? I don’t think so. How can it be disrespectful, when he asked for permission to make this film from all the victim’s families? Maybe it was too early if you would have made this movie in a different way, but Greengrass has made this movie with excellent care. The camera is handheld, which gives you an objective view and feeling of realism. This movie approaches an incredibly sensitive subject in an entirely appropriate manner: with subtlety and understatement. The actors look like real people and talk like real people talk. There are no dramatic exclamations. Even the signature "Let's roll" line is stated almost in passing without any special significance being brought to it. The movie was utterly convincing in portraying how real people would have responded. There were no Bruce Willis or Wesley Snipe types amongst the passengers; they were ordinary...

...the middle of class, too tired to do their work. Students are not getting their much-needed sleep. They’re pushed into what feels like a never-ending loop, failing classes, skipping classes or even school entirely. Students are too tired, waking up before the sun even rises just for some education that they cant even remember due to their exhaustion. It’s better for students to have later start times because early start times can cause students to be too tired to learn and have outbursts or breakdowns. A reason why students need to be late for school is because some students are too tired to learn. In “Should Your School Day Start Later?” an article written by Steph Smith,...

I bet you’re all having trouble with revising before one or loads of vital exams. I can remember when I had an English exam, all the teachers throwing websites at me, throwing all the different books at me; thesauruses, dictionaries, revision guides. It’s too much!

...required to tell a story. A film is a highly collaborative medium and the director, cast, editor, and production crew will, based on your Screenplay, interpret your story their way when it is filmed. Because so many people are involved in the making of a film, a screenplay must conform to standards that all involved parties understand and thus has a specific format. This document is intended to overview the typical elements used screenplay writing. It is crucial to remember that film is a VISUAL medium. You don't TELL your audience your story, you SHOW them. You must learn to write a screenplay VISUALLY. Write what they will SEE and what they will HEAR. Just write the pictures, sounds, and speeches you would like them to see and hear. For the purpose of this assignment your script will involve just four elements: 1. 2. 3. 4. Scene headings Action Character Names Dialogue Scene Headings: These appear at the beginning of a new scene and tell us the scene's setting. They look like this: INTERIOR. BANK VAULT - NIGHT Or this: EXTERIOR. FOOTBALL STADIUM - LATE AFTERNOON Scene Headings are made up of these three elements: 1) INTERIOR. or EXTERIOR. This tells the production crew whether or not they'll be shooting Indoors or Outdoors . 2) Location: Where the scene takes place. These should be short: LIBRARY CIRCULATION DESK or BEDROOM or CARPARK 3) Time. Usually just DAY or NIGHT but can be as specific as 4:59 A.M. (if, say plane is going to take off at 5:00.) or EARLY MORNING, LATE...

...Sugar, one of the deadliest foods in America today. Why is it dangerous all of a sudden? Well, we are eating too much of it and it’s giving us all sorts of health issues and diseases, unhealthy diseases. Sugar is unhealthy because we can get obesity, heart disease, and early death. Obesity is taking over our bodies.. 1 out of 3 Americans today are Obese. But, in 2012 74% of Americans were Obese. More than two thirds (68.8%) Of adults are considered to be overweight or obese. More than one third (35.7%) of adults are considered to be Obese. More than 1 of 20 (6.3%) have extreme obesity. Almost 3 out of 4 men in America (74%) are considered to be overweight or Obese. Heart Disease is another problem we face in America. Heart Disease is actually a small portion of our heart infected. If we didn’t notice the signs or go see a doctor right away, it would possibly be too late. There were 39.5% of America diagnosed with Heart disease. In the 1960’s it was not common for Americans to die of heart attack in their 50 or 60’s. In the U.S, death rate for heart disease rose steadily in the 20th century, but then a peak formed in 1968....

...United States of America but the world too is being consumed by this chronic disease. Obesity causes numerous health problems but it also “…leads to approximately 30,000 early deaths per year” (Pirgon, Aslan 1) according to The Role of Urbanization in Childhood Obesity. Why are there early deaths occurring and why can’t there be a solution? Children across the globe are becoming too comfortable with the brand new and improved processed foods that come in packages so engulfed with signs that say “eat me”. However there are various and very dependent reasons that may lead to a child becoming obese. Childhood obesity is something that can be stopped by getting rid of all those reasons. Lifestyles are really to blame so until the world stops their daily lifestyles of eating unhealthy, the problem of obesity won’t leave. Looking at this poster for the first time, the first thing that is drawn attention to is the child’s hand writing because it is unusual to see. It is also noticed to be in a certain color (red) which pops out because of its intensity. This causes viewers to see it first and make a quick assumption. An assumption can be made that a child has written most of this because it is sloppy and the crayons within the ad also shows that a child had written it because usually children write with crayons. The image is shown to be lopsided and at a random angle. The crayons are put at random spots to indicate that a child is care free and isn’t too particular or purposefully unorganized...

...appears and picks a fight with Benvolio. At length, officers try to break up the fight, even while Lord Capulet and Lord Montague begin to fight one another. The Prince of Verona (Escalus) appears and stops the fighting, proclaiming sentences of death to any that renew the fighting. At Montague's house, he, his wife, and Benvolio discuss how melancholy Romeo (Montague's only son) has been lately. Benvolio vows to find out why. Speaking with Romeo, Benvolio finds Romeo is in love with a woman who has sworn to stay chaste (Rosaline). Benvolio suggests pursuing other women, but Romeo refuses. Separately, Paris (a kinsman of the Prince of Verona) talks to Lord Capulet about wooing his daughter Juliet for marriage. Capulet responds that she is too young (nearly 14 years old) and must wait two years to marry, and then only to the man whom she chooses. Still, Capulet invites Paris to a party in the evening. Capulet's servant is sent to invite guests, but he can't read the list so he entreats Romeo to do so. Upon hearing of the party, Benvolio convinces Romeo to attend and compare his unattainable love Rosaline to more beautiful women to get his mind off Rosaline. At Capulet's house, Lady Capulet speaks to Juliet about her feelings for marrying Paris while Juliet's Nurse listens on, telling stories of Juliet's childhood. Juliet, although hesitant, promises to be courteous. Masked, Romeo, Mercutio, and Benvolio head to the Capulet party. Romeo is still depressed, saying he dreamt a fearful...

...hardiness zones 2 through 10 where they are ready for harvest anywhere from late summer to early fall. The exact harvest time depends on the grape variety, the amount of sunlight the vine received and the specific growing conditions your grapes experience during the season. As a result, you may find yourself harvesting grapes at a slightly different time each year, even if you grow the same variety. 2030 × 1479 Caption Clusters of ripened black grapes dangling on the vine. Alternate Text Group The Beginning Grape vines flower in early or mid-spring, at which time the plants are pollinated. Flowers typically appear in May, but this can vary by species. The pollinated blooms fall off the vine late in the spring season, leaving tiny grape berries behind. This process is known as shatter and happens at the end of May or beginning of June. The tiny infant grapes spend the rest of the growing season developing and ripening. This process is a slow one that can take all summer and extend into the fall. Variety Variations...
