Frank The Tank Analysis
Team Aperture visited Bristol Glen, the local nursing home, on May 12. Many of the nursing home’s residents came to watch a demonstration of “Frank the Tank.” Most of the individuals in attendance were once engineers, or possessed a mechanical or technological background.

    Everyone has the right to fact check information that seems out of place. One could go into depth with the news that appears untruthful. Take for example Dan Fagin, author of "Toms River," after hearing about what was happening in Toms River from other journalists and reporters, he decided to proceed further and investigate the issues himself. He wanted to alert the people of Toms River about what was happening in the city; he wanted them to take action and stop whatever was going on. In order for this to happen, Fagin went to the township and collected all the data he needed and saw. Next, while researching the township he discovered that Ciba was producing harmful dyes, such as vat dyes and azo dyes, that produced "colorless, sweet-smelling…

    The American legal system, a direct descendant of the English legal system, began to develop in 1066 and is always evolving. However, the main principles or the “backbone” of this legal system remains the same. The different sources of American law include the Constitution, state constitutions, statutes, common or “case” law, a body of administrative regulations, and court rules. The most important among these various sources of law, other than Constitutional provisions, is common law. The common law process allows judges to hear cases and make decisions, effectively becoming law, based upon these cases. These case decisions become the common law and others must adhere to this “judge-made” law. In the common law process, the judge’s decision or the “holding” of the case binds future courts and creates precedent.…

    “For the past two years we have lived in fear. Now we can live in hope.” Otto Frank, was the father of Anne frank. Otto Frank had been a survivor in the Holocaust. Many people argue about the issue of survivor's guilt, about whether or not survivors should feel guilty about life and death situations. Survivor's guilt is when a life and death situation happens and the survivor feels guilty of surviving of the disaster they were in. Otto Frank had survivor's guilt because he lost family members during the holocaust such as Anne Frank who was famous for her diary about what had happened during the Holocaust.

    Frankenweenie Analysis

    The movie interpretation of Frankenstein that I decided to watch was the Tim Burton, stop motion, Disney animation, “Frankenweenie”. The story is a similar to Mary Shelley’s original novel of Frankenstein in the overall aspect or storyline but was also very much altered most likely to make the film more child appropriate. The movie’s plot centers around a young boy Victor Frankenstein and his beloved dog Sparky, who was killed when running into the street and getting hit by a car. He grows curious in one of his science when he has to apply electrical charges to dead frogs and which results in their legs twitching. This inspires him to dig up Sparky and basically electrocute him back to life, and the reborn Sparky is created.…

    M y learning goal of this paper was to conduct research by finding and evaluating print electronic and other sources. Also needed to generate information and ideas from research, and lastly integrating material sources. When I used what we used to communicate with my group I had to figure out how it fit with Swales characteristics of a discourse community. Its function was to inform each member about what’s going on and what’s happening with the team with our plans. I feel that I have a very little understanding of the research goal. For one appropriately integrate what I have from my sources I don’t feel I can say that I did. There wasn’t much learning rather than just doing what is asked seeing what the six ways Swales define a discourse community trying to hit every point with some edvidence.…
