Summary Of Super Peers By Zora Neale
Navarrete endeavors to use cartoon and comedic satire in order to expose the injustice of the powerful over the powerless. Maritess, a Filipino, agrees to work for the super friends. Rather than using her airplane to fight crime and promote justice, Wonder Woman immediately appears brashly in Zambwanga to figuratively abduct Maritess. Furthermore, Maritess asserts that Superman exercises his x-ray vision to sexually harass her. Despite being granted with special powers, Navarrete depicts that Superman uses his power for ill use. Although the public acknowledges the super friends as those who fight crime and help the weak, Maritess disagrees by saying multiple times, “I’m just trying to tell the truth!” (Maritess vs. the Super friends).

    Book Review: Supercrunchers

    1. In Chapter 5, of Supercrunchers, "Experts versus Equations", the author makes a great case for the fact that equations predict better than humans. What reasons does the author give that illustrate why a human cannot make predictions as well as an equation? Reason 1: the human mind tends to suffer from a number of well documented cognitive failings and biases that distort our ability to predict accurately. Reason 2: Once we form a mistaken belief about something, we tend to cling to it. We are likely to discount disconfirming evidence and focus instead on evidence that supports our preexisting beliefs. Reason 3: Most people are overconfident while they make prediction to the future while some people tend to be underconfident and slow to change in the face of new evidence. And overconfidence becomes severe when the problems become more complicated.…

    Springboard - Hero Definition Essa

    “It’s a bird, it’s a plane, no its Superman!” For decades comic book characters such as Superman, The Incredible Hulk, Batman, and Wonder Woman have captured the imaginations of American children and adults alike. “Superheroes,” they have been coined. But these figures only exist in our imaginations. Batman is not really there to save us from villains such as the Joker and the Riddler. Because these heroes are fictional, we are left without real life heroes… or are we? The answer is clearly no. Heroes are all around us. They can be courageous, intelligent, strong or daring, but heroes to me are selfless and brave.…
