For the style of the hat that represents my identity, I chose the beanie. While formerly restricted to mainly hipsters, they’re now open, or more wearable, to everyone. I chose this style as beanies are quite comfortable, and that is my preferred state. Additionally, it is a pretty plain style compared to others as I don’t like to stand out too much. They also keep your head warm, and I’d much rather be warm than freezing. In addition, the color of my beanie would be black. Not only does black go with everything, but the color itself also represents death. That being said, I would say that I died internally many, many years ago. I’m sure I’m not the only one. In all seriousness though, I chose black as it is very versatile, and I feel as though I am as well in some, but not all, situations. Furthermore, the size of my hat would be the size of any other beanie. It would be big enough to fit my head but small enough so as to not be overly baggy. On a deeper level, I would say the size of a hat may reflect how much you think of yourself in some scenarios, meaning that the bigger it is, the more highly you think of yourself. On that scale, I would say that I don’t think too much nor too little of myself. That being said, as I said before, my beanie would be around midsize. As well as all of those details mentioned previously, my hat would also have symbols on it. The first of these symbols would be patch of a dog. This would symbolize my love of animals, dogs in particular. I…

“Creativity involves breaking out of established patterns in order to look at things in a different way” says established psychologist Edward de Bono”. This creativity is what is driving our economy and society because novelty and innovation is what people crave and need. unfortunately this influential creativity is on the decline according to the “creativity quotient”, which has steadily decreased since 1990. A manner in which to remedy this issue is the implementation of classes which…

The DeBono Process sometimes allows systematic discussion with reduced conflict. Allowing process owners to criticize while they participate in creating efficiencies that will affect their work can often create natural stakeholder buy in. Edward DeBono’s six thinking hats methodology is helpful for fostering conversations about implementing a permanent change that has proven to work. Often this technique is used for brainstorming, but I think it can be applied for engaging the process owners…

The game Hex was invented by the Danish mathematician Piet Hein in the 1940s. This game has been of great interest to mathematicians around the world since its introduction, including Martin Gardner who explores it in chapter eight of his first Scientific American Book of Mathematical Puzzles and Games (1959). The game is normally played on a board of 11x11 hexagons with two edges labelled black and the other two labelled white. It is a two-person game in which both players (using black and…

Comparing Poetry by William Shakespeare and Phillip Sidney William Shakespeare and Phillip Sidney’s sonnets (specifically, 130 for Shakespeare and 7 for Sidney) do similar things like comparing women to things in nature, but they come up with different conclusions in the end. For example, one could say that Shakespeare compares the woman in his poem to nature in order to prove that it isn’t necessary to be similar nature to make her beautiful and rare. Then, Sidney compares his lady, Stella, to…

Phonies, or a fake people are those with multiple identities. These people act different in public and private, or in different groups of people. Phonies have been criticized in literature for hundreds of years, but one of the most notable times, and possible the first time it was criticized was in Shakespeare's Othello. Shakespeare uses characters in Othello, such as Iago, Othello and Desdemona, to show how the worst of people usually have an extreme difference in their identities, while the…

similarities to de Vere’s life. The plays Shakespeare wrote were generally longer in length. These plays took hours to perform, let alone write. For Shakespeare to write all original plays in the quantity in which he did; it seems unrealistic for one man. Especially in Shakespeare’s short life of 52 years. People also try to argue that it was a form of flattery to the count. The attempt at flattery is a nice thought, but Hamlet was embellished and some concepts like murder and insanity could…

illegible signatures on his plays and other works. Cutler also says that since Shakespeare didn’t get anything past grammar school education, that he should not have had such a vast vocabulary. The author also points out all the well-known people who are also Anti-Stratfordians such as Mark Twain, Charles Dickens and more. In Shakespeare’s will, there is not a single book, manuscript, play or anything that indicates he was a writer. Shakespeare’s works also had many different languages in them,…
