Minority Languages: Chimariko All over the world many minority languages are struggling for their existence. At one point in time there was believed to be at least 200,000 languages. Now, there are only 6,909 languages left and even those languages aren’t safe from becoming extinct.

The focal point if this image is the tower because it is vertically tall and full-size compared to the other buildings surrounding the structure because they get smaller within the image. The buildings have an architectural design where it creates a rhythm by a repetition of straight vertical and horizontal lines. Also the shadowing helps create this illusion that makes it look realistic because in between the plaza there are two wide buildings…

In “The Second Coming,” what does Yeats mean when he writes “The falcon cannot hear the falconer” (line 2)? How does this relate to “the centre cannot hold” (line 3)? In “The Second Coming” there is a footnote at the end of the first line explaining what Yeats envisioned for the word gyre. It mentions that it was meant to represent the age of Christians and how it was spiraling downwards to an end. With this in mind, the second line that reads, “The falcon cannot hear the falconer” it paints a…

In this novel, color symbolism is used heavily by Fitzgerald. He uses it to give his sentences deeper meaning, and to convey information that enriches the experience of the reader in enjoying the novel.

We can also conclude that light orange has a greater saturation and hue of red than green and blue. Using the saturation method, we subtracted .2 from each RGB value and got (.55, 0, .15). By figuring out the color position, we looked at the fraction of the red and greens light orange has; .75R and .2G. In order to find out the fraction of blue, we used the equation 1 = r+ g +b because the fractions of red, green and blue equal to one (Gilbert 103). We substituted in r and g and got b by…

Orientation Event During the first session, Purple started to share their experience with full time work and the internal battle that they were experiencing on whether or not they should stay in the job. For me it was interesting to see that this one story so clearly resonated with almost every member of the group. Our body language changed. It was like the group was coming together for the first time to rally around Purple so that they could feel like they were not alone in their experience.…
