    consequences that comes with being caught, most of the time the accused is not even aloud to step on that pitch or enter that stadium ever again. Consider the self esteem of the amount of fans, coaches and spectators the accused has let down. Impacting their lives in ways that make them not want to even look at that sport on television again. People look up to these athletes and remodels and inspirations until the sportsman blows it for himself. Failing not only fans but the country or team that he or she is representing. There is no trust left in that sportsman. For example Nadzeya Ostapchuk, A world class shot putter that made her country proud when she came first at world level. Little did her country know that she was all doped up and cheated her way to gold resulting in being hated nationally and internationally and never being looked at as that world classed shot putter again. This is when the accusers self esteem is lowered, to a level that they can't step foot in a public place without being verbally abused. The feeling of emptyness, after losing they're followers, losing trust and losing the right to be a normal person again. If I use Ostapchucks story again and look at Valerie Adams, the legitimate gold medallist of the 2012 London Olympics. She emotionally stood on the podium receiving silver, even though she was promoted with gold she didn’t get to go through the feeling of receiving gold. That feeling of mana and standing in front of thousands to proudly…

    and forth?” The nurse had asked me. I did as I was told. The nurse was listing many symptoms that she thought I might have, if I had a concussion. “I’m going to shine a light in your eyes, and all you need to do is look at me,” She said with a concerning voice. They said I appeared to be dazed, and I had late responses. That was the last thing I wanted to hear. She said if I had any nausea to come back. Of course I had nausea; I just didn’t want to go in the ambulance or to the hospital! …

    their was a jurassic pause. I couldn’t think of what was going on, my mind was so blank and I was so cold. “ Mike and his parents were killed, a tree landed on their house.” Now I felt really cold, the inside and outside of me.” I know this must be really hard for you, trust me it's hard on us too sweetie. But Mike’s spirit will always be with you.” How could this have happened I just felt there, you would think I would have heard a prodigious slam. I ran upstairs straight to my room shut and…

    this sequence, we are able to feel the uncertainly and the unsteadiness that Nina feels around Bloom.

    As the first two conventions mentioned above, this convention can also be found in most surveillance films. When watching this murder scene viewers are left feeling betrayed, because that is exactly what happened when Lou’s partner was shot and killed. What makes this murder scene different from other surveillance film murder scenes is that the murder was not for seeable compared to other movies. For example, as we seen in The Conversation the murder was mentioned before it happened even…

    “Better Together,” which was a song off his first album. Mind you, all these songs are so relaxed, they’re a little upbeat, but mellower than anything. I’ve heard people say that the best time to listen to Jack Johnson is when they are smoking marijuana and just want to relax. I guess you can’t really take that to heart, unless you have done that before, but that’s just what I’ve heard. Anyways, Jack finally started to play songs off his new album after getting the crowd all ecstatic with his…

    Everything else remaining equal, we shall consider the effect of the expiration date. Both put and call “American” options become more valuable (or, at least, do not decrease in value) as the time to expiration increases. This makes sense when you compare the call owners of the long-life and the short-life options. Clearly the long-life option holder has more open opportunities before the option expires, therefore, the long-life American option must always be worth at least as much as the…

    but it wasn’t until I took a step back and saw the variety of shots and how each one of them is put together that I realized that there is more then one way to watch a movie. The different ways that a film is shot and how the scene is constructed are ways directors convey meaning to the audience. Film language and mise-en-scene are greatly present during the film Edge of Tomorrow. The first scene that I want to discuss…
