Analytical Essay: The Case Of Mueller And Taylor Swift
On June 2013, David Mueller and Taylor Swift innocently posed together for a picture at a meet-and-greet. However, the innocence was soon lost as the former DJ allegedly groped Swift, intentionally grabbing her butt. According to CNN, Mueller sued the pop singer-songwriter back in 2015, saying that “the incident caused him to lose his job.”
Swift proceeded to countersue, and as of August 2017, “a judge dropped Swift from Mueller's lawsuit, citing insufficient evidence.” Taylor Swift is only looking for $1 in damages. For such a high-profile case, one would expect more money to come out of this. However, this mere $1 means so much more than just another celebrity lawsuit.

    An Analysis of Lisel Mueller’s “Hope”

    When we are going through hardships in life, we feel like we are in a small wreck boat fighting the currents of a nasty sea storm. We start noticing we are miles and miles away from help; we realize we are alone. We cannot see beyond the situation we are currently experiencing. We are blind by the sea storm and it seems like there is no sign of hope anywhere. But just as we fall into despair, a luminous light squeezes from the dark grayish clouds. And even though we almost had let go of the only precious thing that gave us strength, this light is giving us an opportunity to preserve hope once more. In Lisel Mueller’s poem “Hope”, Mueller claims hope is difficult to see and maintain, but it lives everywhere even in herself.…

    Jonathan Swift Rhetorical Analysis

    The final technique that Swift employs to exacerbate tensions between the British and Irish as a result of Ireland’s struggling economy is a satirical ethos, impersonating an economist to suggest that without British cooperation, eating children is the only viable resolution to Ireland’s economy. Swift diction reflects this purpose as he employs economic jargon repeatedly throughout the essay, including as “commodity, yield, computed, per annum, and net profit” (Swift) . He contributes to the persona later in the essay, when he makes realistic calculations to “prove” that cannibalism will benefit the economy , such as “subtracting thirty thousand couples” to find that “there will remain an hundred and seventy thousand breeders” (Swift 6). After…

    The Trent Affair

    The Trent Affair

    The Trent Affair, also known as the Mason and Slidell Affair, was an international diplomatic incident that occurred during the American Civil War. On November 8th 1861, the USS San Jacinto, intercepted the British mail packet Trent and removed it as contraband of two war Confederate diplomats, who were James Mason and John Slidell. The envoys were bound for Great Britain and France to press the Confederacys' case for diplomatic recognition by Europe. The initial reaction in the United States was to rally against Britain, threatening war; but President Abraham Lincoln and his top advisers did not want to risk war. In the Confederate States, the hope was that the incident would lead to a permanent rupture in Anglo-American relations and even diplomatic recognition by Britain of the Confederacy. The boarding of the "Trent" was an outrage of a national relationship, which could not escape the anger of all the nations that were bordering on the sea. The British mail packet "Trent", was taken by a person who was too stupid to foresee its bad effect, on the relations which the persons' own country was endeavoring to maintain with Europe. It produced a sensation, which for awhile, seemed to threaten the total failure of coercion. It is not surprising that on getting the full news of the event, President Lincoln said to the attorney general, "I am not getting much sleep out of that exploit of Wilkes, and I suppose we must look up the law of the case. I am not much of a prize lawyer, but it seems to me, that it is pretty clear, that if Wilkes saw fit to make that capture on the high seas, he had no right to turn his quarterdeck into a prize court." The shrewd President saw that Wilkes could not let the "Trent" go free. The President also soon realized that the rash act was very inopportune, as well as illegal. Mr. Seward hurried to communicate with Mr. Adams, the United States minister at London, the stupid suggestion that "in the capture of Messrs. Mason and Slidell on…

    The Band Perry, a sibling musical trio composed of Kimberly Perry and her brothers Reid and Neil, is an interesting study in contrast. Just with the first two singles, the newcomers offered a lightweight, ebullient number in "Hip to My Heart" and a sad, weighty ballad, "If I Die Young." And most impressively, both songs manage to fit in well on their surprisingly diverse debut album.…

    Richard Nixon's Pardon Rhetorical Analysis

    Former President of the United States, Gerald R. Ford gave a speech pardoning his predecessor, former President Richard Nixon, of all offenses against the United States that he may have committed during his presidency. The announcement was made live on September 8, 1974. The speech was written to persuade the country to agree with the pardoning of Nixon and forgive him for the crimes he had committed against his country. Ford states that “Theirs (Nixon’s Family) is an American tragedy in which we all have played a part. It could go on and on and on, or someone must write the end to it. I have concluded that only I can do that, and if I can, I must.” President Ford argued that the pardoning of Richard Nixon isn’t only for Nixon and his family’s fate but for the country’s well-being. Throughout Ford’s speech he makes evident the use of Logos, Ethos and Pathos appeals. He uses the appeals evenly, convincing his audience while still being well-supported and reasonable.…

    Jonathan Swift Rhetorical Analysis Essay

    I feel this is an appropriate choice for Swift’s video because she often dons and flaunts the feminist label as many current influential woman in celebrity culture are doing; many however continue to perpetuate a stereotype of the traditional subordination of women through overt sexuality. Swift is blazing a new trail where she connects and empowers other women instead of creating a sexual persona for the male gaze. She also tackles the double standards of woman in today’s music industry being melodramatic if writing about anything sentimental or non-sexual; in a Rolling Stone’s interview, she stated, "A man writing about his feelings from a vulnerable place is brave; a woman writing about her feelings from a vulnerable place is oversharing…

    Behind a Convict's Eyes Opinion Paper

    In my experience of reading the text, Behind a Convicts Eyes, I have learned many things about prison life. It has in fact changed my perception of what I thought prison life was like. Prison is in fact a fight for survival, and the weaker inmates will be used and abused by the stronger population. To clarify what I mean, many of the weaker prisoners are sometimes expected to pay for protection from other inmates, or they join prison gangs to be safe. According to the text, it would appear that the inmates actually have more control over their existence than I would have thought that they do. When I use this term, I mean it in the sense that the inmates use the system to their advantage, or at least those who know how to work the system. According to the text Behind the Convicts Eyes, p. 20, it describes the process in which inmates will actually manipulate the tests and clinical physicians to obtain medication in which they can then use to get “high” or sell for profit.…

President Richard Nixon was the 37th president, whose term lasted from January 9, 1969 to August 9, 1974. Nixon was doomed to almost certain impeachment in 1973. Nixon resigned in 1974 with the threat of impeachment looming over his head. President Nixon had a poor impression on his presidency title when compared to his predecessor Lyndon B. Johnson because of the Watergate scandal, violation of international law, and attempt at wage and price controls.…

    Legal Studies Crime Essay

    Statutory and judicial guidelines inform the exercise of judicable discretion in the area of sentencing. These guidelines aim to provide greater uniformity in sentencing matters and enhance the integrity of the process. Judicial guidelines are judgements from superior courts that aim to structure discretion, this is shown in the case R v Jurisic (1998), this case was used by the Criminal Court of Appeals to set guidelines that any non-custodial sentence for culpable driving should be exceptional. Judges are bound to any relevant legislation which impacts upon the sentencing process such as: The Crimes Act 1900 (NSW) this prescribes the maximum sentence that may be imposed for various offences. The Crimes (Sentencing Procedure) Act 1999 (NSW) this prescribes general guidelines in relation to sentencing. For example it identifies what might constitute a mitigating or aggravating circumstance. However, it is left to the exercise of judicial discretion as to how much weight should be given to such circumstances. Mandatory sentencing takes away the exercise of judicial discretion. The court has no choice but to impose the legislated sentence. Amendments to the Crimes (Sentencing Procedure) Act 1999 (NSW), have prescribed minimum non-parole periods for specific offences, such as ten years for aggravated sexual assault. The provision of statutory and judicial guidelines means that limits are placed on a judge’s discretion when sentencing, and this ensures sentencing consistency. However, some people feel that judges still have too much discretion when sentencing, and that some sentences are too lenient. Link…
