If I would to be a Hollywood producer and if I remade this for a 21st century speaker, I would use a celebrity person named Miranda Crosgrow cast as a speaker, and I would set the scene in San Diego, California. The reason why I would put it in San Diego, California, is because it is very nice there and there is a lot of people to be found there that can be useful for a lot of things. There are Celebrities there as well. It is just a good city overall since it’s in California anyways, where there is good weather, a good scenery is always good. The “Seven Ages of Man,” by William Shakespeare’s play I think that Miranda Crosgrow would be good as the speaker and I could compare her to this act of William Shakespeare’s scene. Miranda Crowgrow played…
Ms. Bigby was questioned if she had any prior claims she may have filed for any other losses. Ms. Bigby went on to say that she did not recall as she had discussed this information with her adjuster in this case. As the investigator attempted to refresh her memory by asking if the claim was through Travelers Insurance, Ms. Bigby stated that she does not believe that she had to disclose this information to this investigator and thought that this interview was about her current claim. She then proceeded to say that that the complaint occurred approximately six months ago when she was using a rental car when it was broken into. She argued that many items were stolen from within the car and could not provide any details of the articles taken and the amount of the loss that included where and when the theft occurred. She said she did not have that information, and the Pasadena Police Department took a police report.…

Dr. Tannen is a professor of linguistics at Georgetown University. Her study of language and how it is utilized has led her to have many books on the “Best-Selling” List. In her book, “The Argument Culture”, Deborah Tannen takes a closer look at how we as a society have come to view arguing/debating as a normal form of communication. Our inability to look at more than two views at a time, has led us to limit the potential conversations that could easily take place. In this essay, Professor Tannen takes a shot at making us believe that being in an “Argument-culture” is not the best thing for us as a whole. She wants us to see that it is truly a problem but that it can be fixed by following her advice. Tannen feels that everything…
Despite the conflicting public opinion, Chris McCandless succeeded in his goal to survive in the wilderness and taught the world valuable lessons in the process. Chris McCandless “probably died on August 18th, 112 days after he had walked into the wild.” (119, Krakauer) He survived with very little gear and food, even though he was essentially cut off from the world. To have lived for a little over three months totally self-sufficient is impressive. Chris’s goal was to be independent and live off the land for a while. In his mindset, he achieved in his goal. Wayne Westerberg had employed Chris for two short amounts of time, but said “He was the type of person who insisted on living out his beliefs.” (Krakauer, 67) This was why Chris was determined to go to Alaska, instead of listening to the protests of others.…

Imagine you're a 15 year old boy. You have been out all day, with your friends, or something that would make a great dinner time story for your family. You then come home to find you mother, father tied to chairs, and murdered. Afterwards you walk into another room to see your little sister and little brother, brutally murdered. Sounds like everyone's worst nightmare, but in this case it is one boys reality. Charlie Otero was in 10th grade when he discovered his family in his own home had been strangled to death. It was January 5th 1974 when we lost Julia Otero(the mother), Joseph(the father), Joseph Jr.(brother), and Josephine(sister).The killer said “i derive sexual pleasure from killing.” The police also stated that they found seman at the…
I notice in your response of clinical informatics being implemented on units that the inpatients are provided iPads to access for their medical records? To take part of their care? WOW! That seems bizarre to me. It seems like it would be asking for trouble. Wouldn’t you agree? Antoinetta, I can’t help to imagine the patient laying in bed, board, obviously not a real sick patient, asking a multitude of questions, for example, “what does this word mean”, “what does that lab result represent”, “why is that”, “what is this” . I know the patient is entitled to asking those questions, but I just feel that that would be the wrong time to provide them what that level of access when they need to be healing. We, the nurse,…
“A busy vibrant, goal-oriented woman is so much attractive than a woman who waits around for a man to validate her existence” (Hale). One such woman, author Jenna Price, wrote “Marry down: why more women are doing it,” published in 2017 in the Sydney Morning Herald, and she argues ” it is a truth universally acknowledged that a single woman in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a husband”. The author raises some interesting points, but her argument has several fundamental problems: Price begins building her argument with personal facts and sources, using rhetorical appeals.…
step a person can walk farther in life. Both figuratively and literally with a helping hand. It is hard to make it throughout life without any assistance. With this in mind, dating back to the 1700’s society has focused on making the world easier to maneuver but, not without the use of a stool. It is just like a friend that helps give direction when life is a little hard. A stool is a friend in that it supports a person in his hardest time, guiding him in the right direction while still letting him go his own way.…
Filmed in 2009, after a hiatus from the standup comedy world, for comedic acting, Aisha finally returned to the comedy stage. Performing in her hometown of San Francisco, live, Aisha created the hit, “Aisha Tyler: Is Lit: Live at the Fillmore”. In an uncut, uncensored, and completely unapologetic bit, Aisha makes it a point to comment on every aspect of her life.

However, within the jokes Tyler does hit on some pretty large points such as African American stereotypes, and suppressed female sexuality.…
If an immigrant has trouble speaking the language it could be difficult to communicate their wants and needs in life and on the job. If they order the wrong meal it could be dangerous if they are allergic to certain foods. If they do not understand the news or cannot read the newspaper, they may find it hard to seek out individuals who have the same beliefs or traditions. For example, this weekend in San Francisco, there is a grand parade for Chinese New Year. If an immigrant from China had moved to Modesto this weekend and could not speak or read English, they may not have know of this event or be able to find their way to the event. Learning a new language is difficult and can be overwhelming. It may take some time to learn the language before being able to communicate…

In failing to do these objectives for rhetorical pieces, essay loses meaning and it’s message.…
To be candid I can relate to this article and I can feel the pain you and your mom went through. Growing up as a born African who migrated from Africa to the U.S for a better live, adjusting to the language they speak here and the one we speak back home was very difficult. I spoke something almost similar to what you called “Broken English.” I find it too hard to pronounce the words even now I have trouble getting some words out. In my high school years as a freshman, my accent was still heavy and I did not feel comfortable talking to anyone except for the teachers who motivated me. When I talk to students, they say the wrong responds to what I am saying because they do not understand me or even laugh at me and tell me to be quite. Going to see my high school English teacher three times a week after school for some help on my pronunciation made my English so much better. I felt unwanted by most students but one of my teachers a Filipino woman called “Mrs. Ramos” cared about me. She always calls me to advise me about my peers. She would say, “Brandon, do not let what these kids say about you hurt you, you know better and you are a smart student, you have respect for elders, you have good home training, you know you culture, your history and where you are from. But most of these kids do not care about all that stuff because their parents did not care.” I guess I am lucky; her words always motivated me to keep doing what I was there for, get educated and not make friends who will try to put me down.…
