Gone with the Wind by the late Margaret Mitchell has been described as one of the greatest books of this past century. With its depiction of Southern culture, rich characters, and vibrant landscapes, the book has captivated audiences for quite some time. However, this may not be the case for modern audiences.

“People tend to criticize their spouse most loudly in the area where they themselves have the deepest emotional need.” Pg. 100 I disagree with Chapman’s statement because I believe that people tend to criticize their spouse most loudly in the area that they work hard to show their love through and not where they have their deepest emotional need. It is not a sense of need, rather a sense of acknowledging their effort. One person can be showing acts of service but what they seek most are words…

lighting to create enriching scenes with high contrast and irregular shapes and patterns. Keating talks about how lighting inside noir films are more low key and deep focus, while in regular studio cinema it tends to be more shallow and high key. Keating goes on to explain how this style of filming tends to be more “expressive”, explaining how this allows the viewer to connect more with the facial expressions of the actor and the entire Mise-en-scene of the shot.

anxiety attacks. Trying to keep a balanced diet, for it’s not only good for your body and muscles, but it helps one of the most important muscles, the brain. Sleep is sometimes an issue since I do have a lot to do in one day, but not enough time. I tend to get at least 7-8 hours of sleep, however I take a small nap to recuperate some of the energy that was lost during the day. I try to go out with friends as much as possible or be a volunteer…

another language is to have a second soul” (BrainyQuote). As a native Spanish speaker, I find this statement to be true since I think about objects different than an English native speaker would. For example, when thinking about objects Spanish speakers tend to associate objects with genders while English speakers do not. The topic of language and how people think has been studied by a few Linguists, Psychologists, and Neuroscientists. Research and studies have shown that our native language…

Which is better, Apple or Microsoft? This is a topic of a lot of debate today. I have chosen to focus on computers manufactured by both companies. Apple manufactures MAC computers while a number of different companies manufacture PC’s that run Microsoft’s Windows operating system. The MAC operating system is generally cleaner, faster and more stable than Windows. The reason for this is that many manufacturers of PC’s bundle a lot of other software into their PC’s that are created by third party…

personal space. Conversations are always a few feet away; it is rare that you encounter someone that invades your personal space. However, when you encounter someone that invades your space in the Bahamas, you will tend to avoid that person in the future when you see them again. Bahamians tend to be more formal when it comes to clothing. According to a website called Culture Crossing Guide, “Jeans, shorts, and sandals are usually not appropriate but may be okay in certain industries”…

only to adults but to underage children that cannot buy alcohol or even drink alcohol. Many alcohol companies spend millions of dollars to promote alcohol not only though television but also radio and billboard advertisement. The alcohol companies tend to build a great revenue every year and spend a high amount on advertising in general. Alcohol companies and their advertisement have a great impact on teenagers because the marketers of alcohol see great potential and money making strategies…
