researchers were using the DNA of various mutants, including Logan, to impregnate young Mexican women and ultimately create an army of brainwashed mutant children. When the researchers discovered that “you can’t nurture rage” in children, but you can genetically instill a murderous rage in adults, they decided that the best course of action would be to euthanize all of the failed experiments that were born into the research (IMDb, 2017).

Ice-T, also a famous rapper, said that his song Cop Killer is “the complaint of a homie fed up with police brutality.” (Neal) Ice-T now plays a cop on TV, which I think is ironic because his song Cop Killer was a very popular song in this “war” against the police. It’s hard to think if he is a sellout and if he still believes what he was rapping about in that song or he changed his beliefs. In the journal, Pop and Circumstances they said, “Hip-Hop nationalist are organic cultural intellectuals…

His footsteps brashly richoet against the pale green walls making him uneasy. "...! What's that?!" He ran up to a giant monitor that displayed a pixelated image of himself of all people. 'Someone's been watching me this entire time?!' *CLANK "Shit! I missed!" Naruto stared at the…

Joseph Sargent’s 1974 crime/drama/thriller film, The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, centers on a heist of a New York subway cart and the race against time to catch the culprits and save the hostages. The dramatic aspect is embedded within the development of the colorful, diverse characters and their dissimilar reactions towards the crime situation. These character’s different personalities as well as their different agendas almost hinder the narrative of the film, but diegetic elements stop…

In earlier eras, fairy tales served as a medium to strengthen feminine nature by contrasting women with extreme beauty or profound evil. Feminine nature deals with an ability women have anatomically that differentiate them from men; childbearing. Although, that doesn 't imply all women must give birth, their bodies are simply structured that way. However, men twisted this idea of feminine nature to take on a different meaning; a meaning revolving around infirmity and submissiveness. Women 's…

Once the computer can determine a positive identification—either a manned or unmanned aircraft—can engage a target. But at the end of the day, the computer is still making the determination that a contact is hostile. And there have been systems in the past such as the Northrop AGM-136 Tacit rainbow anti radiation cruise missile that was canceled in 1991. A later…

In the locker room are Dan and Jason. I say hello and continue on to my locker. More people come in and everyone starts talking about how bad their day was. It's almost a daily contest to see who can have bragging rights for having the worst day, perhaps they want sympathy or maybe they just like to complain a lot.
