Remember The Baby Ann Carr Summary
Remember the Baby is a radio drama that is taken from The Truth, a website that have the fictional audio stories. Like this podcast, it is based on a true story performed by Ann Carr, telling us about Ann, who gets a stroke while babysitting her sister's baby. Enhanced by sound effects, the story emphasizes Ann's struggle during the moment she gets a stroke. Based on my understanding, she is able to fight back and seeks help because she hears the baby's cry. Then, the story ends with a tuneful music that evokes the value of how love can save one's life. Interestingly, there is a sound bite of the real Ann sharing her experiences. Although the duration is quite long which is 14 minutes, I believe the listeners will tune in because the podcast

    Maggie Cutler The Nation Summary

    The reason this conversation remains is because it is not possible to prove any thing scientifically. As Maggie Cutler wrote in The Nation ‘One of the reasons so many media violence studies have been done is that the phenomenon may be too complex to study conclusively. There’s no way, after all, to lock two clones in a black box, feed them different TV, movie and video-game diets and open the box years later to determine that, yes, it was definitely those Bruce Lee epics that turned clone A into Jesse Ventura, while clone B’s exposure to the movie Babe produced a Pee Wee Herman.” (Cutler) This quote explains the difficultly of proving this relationship, because we can not measure against a clean sample. This means that there are no…

    Anne Lamott Summary

    In the book Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott, she writes an excerpt, Shitty First Drafts, which is about the impact and importance of the first drafts of writing. Anne explains in the beginning of this excerpt that all writers write shitty first drafts and the drafts get better as you write more and work on the writing more. Lamott claims that “writing is not rapturous,” she explains that the only way that she can write anything well is to write a very bad first draft and just work on fixing that. She explains that sometimes you just have to type and get your ideas written out to be able to write a good piece of work. Once someone has been writing for so long, they have to have the ability to be able to just trust their writing process and understand that the first draft isn’t going to be perfect. Nothing is perfect on the first try, you have to keep working at it. Sometimes the first draft will be the worst thing someone thinks they have ever written, but they just have to go back to it and try to make it better and revise what is wrong. A writer has to start somewhere and they work from there. Just because the first draft is a bad draft doesn’t mean that the final work will be terrible. The first draft is the terrible draft, the second draft is the slightly better draft that has been picked through lightly to better, and the final draft is the “dental draft.” The dental draft is the draft that you really pick through and make sure that everything is perfect. In other words, the final product is checked “dentally” to make sure that it is “healthy” so that the final product is perfect. Lamott’s entire excerpt is just explaining that whether or not your first draft is perfect or not, the final product will definitely be better and more acceptable.…

    Barbara Ehrenreich Summary

    It is my belief that the author, Barbara Ehrenreich does put forward an objective plan. Although she is a journalist, she acts as if her true profession is a scientist. She does this by having only one goal set, putting rules and boundaries in place for herself, and recording and analyzing the data she has collected. She decided to completely change her lifestyle and learn how many Americans live their lives. Ehrenreich tries her hardest to enter this experiment with neutral, unbiased ideologies. She mixes her two jobs as a journalist and as a scientist perfectly by using her skills from each one; for example, using first-hand experiences to create a story with a strong, unique purpose and also staying very evidence-based and true. Ehrenreich…

    Summary Of Baby Hope's Birth Mom Has A Name

    In the New York Times op-ed titled “Baby Hope’s Birth Mom Has a Name,” author Jennifer Weiner talks about the problem of abortion in relation to a situation brought up in Trump’s State of the Union address. Officer Ryan Holets was on duty when he saw Crystal Champ and her husband injecting themselves with some kind of drug, and when he walked over to them he realized she was pregnant. Holets felt that he should adopt the child and get help for the opioid-addicted couple– and he did. However, Weiner claims that Trump purposely left out Ms. Champs name and cut her from the story after the Holets made their adoption offer in order to subtly advance the claim that a fertilized egg is equal to a human life, and the egg should be treated as such.…

    Analysis of the Character of Ann from "The Painted Door" by Sinclair Ross

    But we think Ann is more than just what she appears to be. There are moments where her rebellious personality is shown, such as when she went out of the house during the blizzard to feed the animals when John had plainly stated to her, "Everything's fed and watered, and I'll see that there's plenty of wood in." This depicts Ann's willingness to go so far as to distract herself from her loneliness. Also, the way she beseeches John to stay and the way she reacted, "She glanced up sharply, then busied herself clearing the table…" (pg49) at the mention of a visit by Steven shows that she presents some good intuition and intellect as to what may happen.…

    Flannery O 'Connor Summary O' Connor

    Atmosphere: Thought the story, O’Conner presents us with several reoccurring themes of irony, realism, and revelation. She creates the atmosphere by beginning how the family interacted with each other and how they got along or how they didn’t. Baily and his wife tend to “ignore” the grandmother, because they feel like she always has something on her mind thus they had no reason to try and reason with her, while the children like to argue with grandmother, resulting further igniting her flame. O’Connor integrates the southern gothic writing style into the story, by making a point to the readers by writing out the moral values of the grandmother in the story. Southern gothic was useful in which presenting a traffic event and O’Connor teaches us that everyone is flawed, in the way that we aren’t perfect, despite one selves own…

    Ann Carson

    Who is Ann Carson? Why do I have to read this anyway? I really didn’t see the point in it. For one thing, the writer lost me after the introduction. I was then asked to find the meaning in what Ann Carson was trying to say, to me. It was very hard reading Short Talks. Confusion twists and turns. It was like going through the “fun house at a carnival.” Just imagine. Before you go any further there’s a “big turning barrel” (her introduction) that already had me “slipping and sliding” and falling. I eventually crawled out of it. Then I climbed up the “rickety stairs made out of chains” (the next Short Talk). There 's the big goofy mirror” that’s all distorted and everything. Reading Short Talks again and again and again, seemed like an exercise in futility. Or, was it… really? One thing was certain. I seriously had a headache from the first readings.…

The story was in New York city where people from other time were moving to the actual New York city in 2010 from the future New York City in the late 2090s.
