The Observer

I'm an Observer. My skin, a hundred yards of spotted flesh, draped across the contorting furniture of my space. My colorless eyes reflected the entire color spectrum. My legs, all sixty of them, were in various states of motion. A long leg curled around a floating body of water and I watched the universes through the liquid. My senses shift through the universes until I detected him. He piloted a Dynaject battleship against thousands of swarming, buzzing space creatures. A heartbeat before…

the Pentagon” conveys the underlying emotions of the individuals in the movement, but never attempts to excuse their actions, even calling the actions “militant” at one point. Unlike other accounts of the March, Akatiff speaks as though he was an observer, rather than a protester. In comparison to the typical summary, Akatiff delves into the sensitive topics of the situation - that the leadership was disorganized, that the protesters were at times, unreasonable. Akatiff’s perspective in his…

creates through words; that if it gives us the world to apprehend anew, it does not do so apart from its language, but through its vital working of the medium of words” It is Broheads sentiments regarding literature that illustrate how the reader or observer is able to use the foundations of this novel and build upon them to create the “copestone”. Therefore, the reader, has the aptitude to review the novel as a somewhat cenotaph, if they so please. In a sense readers, somewhat collaborators,…

his daily life. The scenes he painted were often lively and chaotic and the Dutch to this day often use the phrase “A Jan Steen household” meaning a chaotic and messy household. His paintings of household chaos were supposed to act as a warning to observers that life needed to be more organized and orderly. Today the Merry Family is a typical work of art that portrays a chaotic, messy scene along with subtle hidden meanings. Steen interprets the moral truths of Dutch genre painting as a humorist…

According to “Custer Died for Your Sins,’ by Vine Deloria, an anthropologist may do more harm than good in Native American research when the anthropologist hosts workshops, which inform young Indian community members of what the anthropologist believes to be the issues as well as the solutions to the issues of challenges facing the community, rather than allowing Indians to organically administer their own solutions to modern day obstacles, develop their own leaders, and determine how their…

I am familiar with the unglamorous and often obstacle-ridden path to becoming a doctor, because I witnessed firsthand the struggle that my parents faced to regain their certification as doctors in the United States. However, what ultimately makes me want to become an osteopathic physician is what I observed from all the osteopathic physicians that I shadowed and talked to. I believe that successful osteopathic physician must be personable, passionate, patient centered, and most importantly, a…

in hopes of understanding what brings "48,000 South American children to the United States alone and illegally each year" (299). Nazario evokes feelings of humanity and compassion in her audience by establishing her credibility as an unobtrusive observer, appealing to the reader 's emotions, and citing concrete facts and evidence.…

When looking at the questions of motivation, one must look at all sides of those involved. There is a great tendency to misattribute the motivation of people, based on our own preconceptions. As written about in our primary text, the actor-observer bias causes us to attribute motivations of others to more dispositional reasons, whereas the other person usually sees them as situational (Petri and Govern, 2013). For my analysis of a current event in the context of attribution motivation, I have…

conducting any medical procedure. In these days it was also very common for other surgeons or students inspiring to become doctors to observer the surgery up close and person. The surgeries would be performed in homes or even theaters so that there was room for the procedure to be done while others watched closely. So, if an airborne pathogen were released from one observer or patient it would quickly infect the onlookers. Thus contaminating the air, area, and patient…

of what he has done more important than the action they got them there. What I think makes Watchmen so interesting is the third point of view, something much less used than the first two. I’ll call it the ‘passive observer’ for lack of a batter term. Dr. Manhattan is the passive observer, looking at the world threw the macro scale. He is similar to how the reader might be seeing the fictional world. He is distant from the concerns of humanity because he has become a being that has transcended…
