We were all waiting silently, some of us were looking out for enemy snipers and mines in the water.

    MOVIE: LEBANON SCENE: 55:30-1:00 War is bloody, violent and chaotic. However, the portrayal of war in cinema is glorified and romanticized on the silver screen. It is rare that we see a depiction of war for what it is; In the Israeli film Lebanon there are many scenes that showcase the horror of war and the fear that it brings. One scene in particular to me stands out above all else: For five minutes between 55:00 and 1:00:00 director Samuel Maoz was able to showcase human brutality, and how…

    wealth unheard of back in my time, it is disheartening to see that some mercantilist ideas and practices are alive and well. As a reaction to the problematic repercussions those practices had on the common workers, Robert Reich wrote a book entitled “Saving capitalism” in which he describes them and calls for a “reorganization of the market” in order to fix the crude injustices and prevent future ones. He ultimately points to the issue with the term “free market”: it hides under the virtuous…

    The speech I read was from the movie “Saving Private Ryan” (Movie Speech, 1998). General George C. Marshall read aloud a letter that Abraham Lincoln wrote to a Mrs. Bixby in Boston. I believe the goal of the speech was to inform his officers that there was a mission for them, which was to do whatever they had to to bring that boy home alive (Movie Speech, 1998). The goal of the speech/letter was not clearly stated until after he was done reading it to his officers. Based on the contents of…

Did you know that little penguins are a species of penguin, so named because they can range anywhere from 10 to 12 inches tall (Kristin Lewis). When oil gets on penguins their feathers clump up, when this happens it exposes their skin and allows all the cold water and poisonous oil to get to their skin and make them cold (Lauren Tarshis 16). The penguins from “ The Amazing Penguin Rescue” and “ Saving Penguins, One…
