Andy Reid

Rage Against His Machine I am a member of the Bleeding Green Nation. I have been an avid Philadelphia Eagles fan since before I can remember. Examples of my fidelity to the organization range from an irrational adoration of retired legend Brian Dawkins (AKA Weapon X) to a deep seeded hatred of the Dallas Cowboys. My membership of the bleeding green nation has been a potent influence on my life and there is not a day that goes by where I do not check the latest news. The hiring of Chip Kelly represented a bittersweet moment for me. On one hand, it represented the conclusion of one of the Eagles’ greatest coaches and leaders, Andy Reid. However, on the other hand, the idea of an ‘offensive genius’ running the team was exciting. Now, three years later, even my prejudiced eyes cannot ignore a glaring reality. Chip Kelly is a flawed leader.…

car, etc which could lead to additional evidence. For example in the case of Jack the Ripper we might have found out that he was a man of slight build, that wore a size 9 shoe, and had a slight limp on his right leg using this information. Interviewing Techniques The Reid Technique is a technique that I would use because the interrogation technique when used properly can yield valuable information and help secure the confession that is needed. This type of interviewing requires three steps,…

I choose to write about Douglas Starr’s responses to his interview with Terry Gross from Fresh Air about his article in the New Yorker called “Beyond Good Cop/ Bad Cop: A Look At Real-Life Interrogations.” Starr’s interview covered the topic “Do Police Interrogations Techniques Produce False Confessions?” The bottom line is yes. However, in this on air radio interview with Starr, he compares how two techniques frequently used by law enforcement in the United States with the Reid Method and…

techniques and tactics used to exploit individual weakness, such as juvenile status, therefore changes need to occur in the justice system. Arguably the biggest contributor to a false confession is the primary interrogation technique used to produce it, the Reid technique, which was even declared by the United States Supreme Court’s 1966 Miranda decision as “the most authoritative source on American interrogation techniques” (Shipler 1). Founded by John Reid, a former Chicago street cop turned…

With this technique, the interrogator does an interview with the suspect to determine if they display any verbal or nonverbal signs of guilt (Frantzen, 2010). If the interrogator is confident in the presence of guilt, the aim shifts to obtain a confession (Dixon, 2010). Here the tactics used are designed to minimize guilt and put emphasis on any available evidence and the suspects need for cooperation (Frantzen, 2010). Psychological pressure is put onto the suspect in order to build anxiety and…

This information can be helpful if there needs to be an interrogation by identifying certain characteristics about both the suspect and the crime that was committed (Orlando, n.d.). Another technique that the Reid Technique uses, the behavior analysis interview, is a non-accusatory interview. The criminal investigator will ask background questions. In other words, ask personal questions of the suspect that will allow the criminal investigator to evaluate the suspect’s “normal” verbal and…

The painting Coup d’Oeil, a French phrase meaning “Speed of Light,” was created by James Rosenquist. Rosenquist is a pop artist, creating many large, bright, and extravagant pieces. He is seen as a protagonist in the pop-art movement, alongside Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein. Similar to Warhol and Lichtenstein, Rosenquist uses bright colors in his pop art to create bold statements throughout all of his works. Coup d’Oeil was painted by Rosenquist using oils in 2001. The beauty of a…

In contrast to Andy Warhol’s fascination with fame and materialism, it is important to consider the background he came from. Born with the original name of Andrew Warhola, he was from a humble background, with Slovakian immigrant parents—a construction worker as a father and an embroiderer as a mother. When Warhol was once asked where he was from, he replied with a cryptic “I am from nowhere” with this nowhere being Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Warhol has always been private about the details and…

quote was said by Andy Warhol himself. It’s discussing how once you see and appreciate the pop art style, America will look so different and unique. Now, Andy Warhol was a unique artist. He was born and raised in Forest City, Pennsylvania and was originally named Andrew Warhola. He was one of three boys born and the only one to attend college. He got accepted into Pittsburgh’s Carnegie Institute of Technology as an art student. While in college, he worked as a window decorator at a local…

has the ability to wake people up, lull them into a sense of peace, or inspire them to make a change. One thing you will notice about many famous artists: they have something to say. One of these artists is Andy Warhol, who uses the theme of death in his. Pieces like Electric Chair, Skull, and Self Portrait (1986) show Andy Warhol exploring the theme of death. Andy Warhol was the most successful and highly paid commercial illustrator in New York even before he began to make art destined for…
