Rosetta

Dumas uses humor the most, likely because with humor a reader stays engaged in the storytelling. When first describing her father, she uses imagery, calling him her own private Rosetta Stone. However, this proved to be baseless due to his lack of understanding American colloquial speech. She points out Kazem must be speaking a version of English not yet shared with the rest of America because of the bewildered looks from store cashiers…

I interviewed a nurse whose name is Rosetta Smoots and she has been in the field for over twenty years. She helped me to understand that being a nurse will not always be easy emotionally for me and that I will have a lot of bad days. She wanted to get into nursing for the same reason I do, to help people. This talk also helped me to understand that nursing school is very competitive, and that I will need to work harder than I ever have to be successful. She said as long as this is what I truly…

Women in today’s society are not getting the credit they deserve. Sexism is one of the leading issues in our world today, and can be solved by gender equality. Genders are not restricted to certain roles in our society, for example in the nursing field women tend to overrule the job availability. Another example displaying gender inequality is men working in the engineering industry. There is a constant struggle between gender equality in this world and it starts from basic actions such as…

Long time ago space exploration was only a dream, people saw this as something impossible and far away from reality, but that dream became true. After many failures and mistakes humans were able to travel to space, as it is described by The Aerospace Corporation (n.d.) “Russian Lt. Yuri Gagarin became the first human to orbit Earth in Vostok 1. His flight lasted 108 minutes, and Gagarin reached an altitude of 327 kilometers.” This first trip opened people eyes and make them believe that there…

Working in a team is a practice as old as the first human relationships, in which we collude with other individuals in order to achieve a common goal, and ultimately share both the success and failures of the operation (Buchanan and Huczynski 2011). However, working in a team is a difficult practice where there are many individuals with different ideas, all of them wanting to implement their own methods to attain that final, common goal. Differences in morals, culture, principles and…

not good enough at the time. I was really disappointed with myself and I wish I could speak English, not fluently but good enough for people to understand English. I applied for English classes every week, and studied English at home through The Rosetta Stone, the best learning English app. After that, I realized my English skill is better, but it wasn't the level that I desire. Moreover, I went out, tried to talk to foreigners to learn how to talk, borrowed books from the library to read more.…

Napolean rose to fame by being a brilliant military leader. He had gained a lot of popularity and support for driving the British forces out of Toulon in 1793, capturing northern Italy and taking control of Egypt. This actually helped them discover the Rosetta Stone, from which they were able to decode hieroglyphics. Though he was defeated in 1798 during the Battle of the Nile, he…

Marca Kaplar Longer Paper #1 Hillbilly Elegy, Trump and the Death of a Culture President Trump's appeal to the culture, identity, and ideology of the often forgotten working class people was successful by simply allowing a group of disenfranchised, forgotten, and loyal citizens the capability for the hopes and belief that they can be great again. Through the promise of “Making America Great Again,” he sparked a fire in many who have gone from a level of wealth that to them allowed for a very…

varied sound and smooth instrumentation of Gil Scott-Heron's and Brian Jackson's community work in the 1970s. All About Jazz referred to Jackson as "one of the early planners" of the sound and his initial work with Scott-Heron as "a moving and melodic Rosetta stone for the neo-soul…

Catalhoyuk was a town that developed more than 9000 years ago and was tightly packed with 8000 people. Everyone had to live on top of each other which seems to me could have gotten very difficult at times. With all their houses being piled upon one another they seemed to be very well organized and a have VERY advanced society. They even buried the dead beneath their houses... sounds extremely terrifying to me. Men and women were equal in the labor department and they both had low life…
