For the most part I agree with the writer idea. I like what the writer said how the justice was served by the court. Kinkl murdered 4 people and attempted 26 murder case, so he deserve 112 years to be in prison. Even though Kinkl has a mental disorder problem, he was a danger to the community and needed to be watched by the government for the public safety. The audience can clearly see what happened on the Kiniakl cause from the court report that is presented.
Those who were responsible for crafting essa ESSA sought to shift the focus from federal accountability and oversight to more local and state-based control; under President Obama’s waiver program, CCSSI and RTT initiatives, the direction of education policy was one on increased federal control over education. An oft-quoted Wall Street Journal editorial claimed that ESSA would represented, “the largest devolution of federal control to the states in a quarter-century.” Chairman of the House Education and the Workforce Committee John Kline further billed ESSA as a rejection of the “Washington-knows-best approach to education” and touted ESSA as “the kind of responsible education reforms the American people want and deserve.” While the rhetoric
A Rhetorical Analysis of Gloria Anzaldua’s, “How to Tame A Wild Tongue.” The latin american and mexican diaspora have continuously been at odds as to which dialect of spanish tends to be the most proper or rightfully utilized, in being examined by each other as while as the anglo society. Well the multi-ethnic diaspora that resides within Gloria Anzaldua’s (the writer) home, the Borderlands, tends to exude the conceptualization of multiple dialects of spanish speech into one.
Today our world is up 24 hours a day. It is transparent with blogs and social networks broadcasting the buzz of a whole new generation of people who have made a choice to live their lives out in the public. It is astonishing that on any given day people lie to us about 10 to 200 times, and the clues to detect those lies are subtle and counterintuitive. In her speech, How to spot a liar, Pamela Meyer presents some insight into the science behind why we lie, whom we lie to, and most importantly, how to seek out the truth and develop trust. Furthermore, she adds that over-sharing is not honesty and that our manic tweeting and texting can blind us from the subtleties of human decency, character, and integrity.
Written by Gloria Anzaldua, “How to Tame a Wild Tongue”, is an opinion easy , a retrospection of her past and a story about identity and recognition of a wild tongue. The following is a rhetorical analysis and personal response of this easy . My analysis will be divided into 4 separate parts including intended audience, main claim, purpose and situation. (a) Intended audience : The first thing that anyone who even skims through this easy would notice is Anzaldua’s multi-lingual language use.
Excitement in Gram Gram is an extremely enthusiastic person which is definitely shown in the passage. There are certainly a couple ways you can tell. You can tell by her personality and her beliefs, and how the author portrays Gram’s beliefs in the story. It also shows how the two things are very alike.
In his scientific essay “Monkey See, Monkey Do, Monkey Connect” Frans de Waal argues that the text consists of primates and humans connecting to one another through their emotions and the means of imitation. Therefore, the main idea of the text is how humans and primates interact with each other and why we connect with each other through emotions and imitation. de Waal provides us with examples of survival value and how it is crucial to live, as well as an example of how laughter can spread throughout humans and primates and strengthen our bond, and finally an example of how imitation can lead one to connect with another. At the beginning of the essay, de Waal discusses that our survival value is significant for us to be able to deepen our
Sinclair perceived insensibility as a blessing in a time where life was hard and people had to work a lot. From reading this passage, I believe that insensibility is not a blessing because people need to be able to able to be emotionally affected. In my essay I will be discussing the uses of insensibility in the story with linking it to how it goes with my beliefs on how Sinclair portrayed this as a blessing. The definition of insensibility is the inability to be moved emotionally by something or it could be the inability to feel emotionally.
Argument Against the Argument of Pascal’s Wager In Pascal’s Wager, Pascal pioneered new thoughts and opinions amongst his peers in probability theories by attempting to justify that believing in God is advantageous to one’s personal interest. In this paper, I will argue that Pascal’s argument rationalizing why one should believe in God fails and I will suggest that even if one was to accept Pascal’s wager theory, this will not be a suffice resolution to reap the rewards that God has promised to Christian believers like myself who has chosen to believe in God due to my early childhood teachings, familial and inherited beliefs. Pascal offers a logical reason for believing in God: just as the hypothesis that God's existence is improbable, the
Within Holder’s speech there were instances of multiple fallacies. One specific fallacy is the generalizations Holder makes in his speech, much like the ones that were used for deductive reasoning. These generalizations were often subjective and not backed up with evidence, which leads to hasty generalizations. Holder states that those who are against animal testing are mainly youth, which infers that all youth are against animal testing. However, it is not just youth who are against animal testing and not all youth are not against animal testing.
Charles Darwin believes that all humans have evolved from the “lower animals”, but humanity manifests the complete opposite. Mark Twain in his essay, “The Lowest Animals” observes and criticizes human nature, their follies, and eradict behavior during his “experiments” by incorporating allusions to well known eras, ironic religion, and satirical parody. His purpose is to bring attention to humanity’s hypocritical ideals and behavior. He writes in a humorous tone for the people that do or indulge in the acts he is against. To begin with, Twain refers to past historical figures by stating, “He was at...else tomorrow”.
In Animal Farm, George Orwell warns how power will often lead to corruption. Napoleon was placed in a position of power after Major died, and he slowly starts to lavish in his power and become addicted to the lush life of a dictator. When Napoleon first becomes a leader, he expresses how everyone will work equally, but as his reign goes on, he shortens the work hours. At the very end of the novel, the observing animals even start to see that pig and man had become the same. The irony present in the above example, illuminates how regardless of how much a ruler promises to maintain equality and fairness, the position of power that they hold, will corrupt them.
Emotion forms a central part of our everyday human experience. Events or objects within our environment that invoke emotion are not only given value, but affect our attentional processes and enhance our formation of memory. Neuroimaging techniques, including modern optogenetic approaches, have led to a growing awareness that emotion, unlike many other psychological functions, is fairly un-encapsulated, interacting with and influencing multiple other areas of functioning. As well as the effects upon attention, perception, memory and learning, emotion plays a core part in our social relationships, and is essential for empathetic behaviour in our interactions with others. Emotional cues act as powerful reinforcers; they impact strongly upon
When trying to identify the emotion, you may look at the wrong signal. Ekman and Friesen explain different experiments they did to discover the key facial expressions for surprise, fear, disgust, anger, happiness, and sadness. The theme of this book is that knowledge of facial expressions can
While explaining the ‘emotional hijacking’ in human brains, Le Doux (1986) has mentioned that amygdala, in the limbic system of the human brain, acts as an alarm system which, through specific emotional response, copes up with the emergency situation and alerts the major parts of brain. ' It triggers the secretion of the body's fight-or-flight hormones, mobilizes the centres for movement, and activates the cardio-vascular system, the muscles, and the gut' (Goleman, 1995; pp 16-17), Sensory signal from sensory organs first goes to brain's thalamus and across a synapse it reaches the amygdala. From thalamus, another signal is rooted to the brain's rational part of
