People aways say don 't judge a book by its cover, but if you think about it book covers are very important. Book covers need to be intriguing to the reader to make the reader want to read the book. Throughout all of my schooling have found that most of the books I need to read have horrible covers. You have to ask yourself, Will I even read this book? Or does this cover make me what to read this book? I believe that when you buy something you have to have a personal connection to enjoy it fully.

It shows the reader enough information without overloading her mind and eyes. I used colorful images to make the reader happy and excited to open the book. Since Ethos means credibility I chose a picture of an award from the Grammys, award as big as the Grammys that gives an artist a lot of credibility with his or her peers and fans. Pathos means emotion, so I decided to insert an emotional song lyric, when you read this lyric it will make you think and get emotional. Lastly, logos means logic so I chose to put an image of music on a staff because reading music on a page is a big part of the logistics of becoming a musician. Some don 't use or develop musical theory skills, but even if they don 't personally use it they will have a lead sheet or some sort of theory in front of them and one time or anther.

    As an educator and member of the Newark community, I would like to express my opinion on the need for police reform in Newark. When you came into office your platform was heavy with rhetoric to reform the police culture and practices of the Newark Police Department. I would wholeheartedly agree with you but to date, I have not seen many changes. I understand that this is a very large issue to tackle with many moving parts and pieces but I believe that the police culture can only begin to change only when police officers are stakeholders in our community.…

    The retelling of the first accounts of European contact seemingly always mark the beginning of a “civilized” America while portraying the Native population as having been rescued from a “savage” lifestyle. The lack of formal evidence from the Aboriginal side of the story, in the form of letters and writings, makes it hard to deicer what the truth actually is which leads us to believe that the evidence that does exist, is the truth. In the quest for the big picture, Neil Salisbury, Ramsay Cook and Cornelius Jaenen have analyzed different types of evidence for the Aboriginal side to reveal that the Native population was in fact flourishing well before contact. Salisbury uses archeological evidence to show long standing exchange networks and social…

    Oratory, through my technique, presents itself in the form of a grandiose sentiment to the subject at hand, where my methods of presentation aggrandize even the most mundane topics. Uncharacteristically developed from my nervousness and stern demeanor, oratory was not a skill I knew possible within myself until I was forced to stand before a crowd. In some convergence of anxiety and want for respect amongst my peers, I unconsciously spoke with such a stentorian voice that my audience was left startled. Hitherto, I knew not of my capability and the pure euphoria that came with presenting; however, with this newfound skill, I knew I needed to capitalize because it was a mode of communication in which I could share my ideas and passions while…

    Freakonomics Reflection

    A little disclaimer: I am not good in reflecting, and putting into words my supposed reflection and reactions about ideas or life in general. First of all, how do I reflect or react about a book that has a mutated green apple—assuming it is mutated, as its insides are that of an orange—for its cover? Ultimately, I judge books (literally books, not people) by its cover. The cover of Freakonomics looks quite complicated to me no matter how simple it looked, and led me to the conclusion that the book probably is not my cup of tea (as if I like tea and books in the first place).…
