Converse

Movement was a large part of the performance. The saxophone players didn’t simply sit and play, they walked from one side of the stage to another, moved behind other players, and even seemed to converse while they played. The bassists and drummer even discussed something as they played The Grind. Even the audience was more involved, clapping during the songs and dancing along with the music. Overall, this performance was more inclusive than the…

In John 3:1-21 A Pharisee and leader of the Jews named Nicodemus converses with Jesus about how one can enter the kingdom of God. Jesus speaks to him using parables just as he did in Mark. In Mark, we learned that parables are used to speak to God’s people but to keep those who are not at bay. The Pharisee should be able to understand Jesus but we soon find out that he does not. Jesus states that only a son of God can enter the kingdom of God when he declares “no one can enter the kingdom of God…

When it comes to enjoying time out on the boat, there are two things you should do. One, make sure you pack enough snacks and supplies to entertain yourself while over the water. The second, is to look good while out on the boat. Looking good while boating isn’t just about fashion though, it’s about functionality. Dressing up isn’t going to do much if your high heels cause you to trip and go overboard, so what should you wear instead? First off, it is important to make sure you are prepared…

especially like jordan gym shoes because they attract attention and make me lots of money if i decide to sell on the market. in previous math courses i had one thing i did not like was that my teacher did not teach the class but observe and let others converse and collab to get the answers. also did not give assistance when it was needed. i feel like this was a bad experience for me because of the way i'm used to learning. my algebra 2 teacher…

on the boat “perpetually at the side of the vessel” (James 2). Yet, Miss Caroline stands “at odds with her isolation”; she wants her loneliness to end. In addition, Caroline excites as the narrator talks with her; Caroline’s friend uninterestedly converses with her. “I always talk to her about it. I tire her dreadfully” (James 1) When the narrator visits Caroline after five years, she lives in loneliness. The narrator thinks Miss Caroline wants to suffer alone, but Caroline’s life embarrasses…

I will discuss topic number two with East of Eden. East of Eden incorporates camera placement, mood lighting, and camera angles to further enhance an actor’s performance and the overall mood of the scene. For instance, the Trask family sits at the dining room, a traditional family setting, but under dark mood lighting. The side of the table with the main protagonist Cal is more darkly lit than the side of the table were Cal’s father Adam and Cal’s brother Aron are seated, which is warmly lit.…

Smithereens incorporated many of the American Punk fashions into the movie. The main character, Wren, is a runaway from her home state of New Jersey because she wants to join the Punk subculture. She wore fishnets, plaid skirts, converse, big sunglasses, and occasionally a big, pink fur coat. She also wore dark makeup and big hair, which corresponded to the Punk fashion during this time period. Her fashion and her attitude matched perfectly with the Punk culture. Eric, a Punk…

Recently, certain statues have been the source of contentious debate surrounding their removal. For some, those statues do not need a public display as they are highly offensive and for others, the statues are cultural and needs to remain. However, the Confederate statues that largely haunt the South needs to be removed since there are no plausible defense for them. The horrendous events in Charlottesville, Virginia in which a suspected Nazi sympathizer killed a person, reminds us that we have…

People who benefit from social hierarchy embrace it because it allows them to manipulate their privilege; however, these people can choose to disregard the hierarchy to embrace a sense of commonality with others. This is highly exemplified in Jane Eyre, most clearly in the power dynamics at Lowood and Thornfield. Thornfield specifically, because of the wealth associated with it, shows people who are put in positions of power tend to stay there, as well as constantly justify their positions.…
