Having such a large…

Imagine being teleported into this new land, not of dirt, mud, or water, but of blocks. What would you do in this situation? Well, since you are here, I’m guessing you are in this situation. If you follow these directions, you will not only survive, but also thrive. The first thing you need to do is find some trees. You will probably spawn in a forest or jungle, but if you spawn in a plains biome, trees are not that far away. Get about sixteen logs and turn them into planks by pressing “e” and…

An ironist is a writer that describes a person with positive and powerful attributes, who looks to have everything figured out, but then an event occurs that reverses the previous sentiment about the person. The person is no longer perfect but has faults. An ironist uses the universe and compares it to the fragile nature of humans. Ambrose Bierce reveals this ironist perspective through his story tittles “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge.” In his story he explains in great detail a man about…

year. Not because I was sick or feeling a sickness coming on, but because I did not want to get sick. My mentality was that prevention is better than cure; and my parents who love me so much and just want me to be happy would go out of their way after work and buy me a box of Med-Lemon from Clicks which would cost roughly around R70. I didn’t really even begin to consider the side effects of drinking Med-lemon, or how the ginger spice added in it would later give me a long lasting ulcer in the…

After that, studies and new findings involving these two mineral deficiencies will be examined. Methods of detecting mineral deficiencies will be…

Plastic water line is lighter and easier to work with as well as cheaper. These new plastic water lines also have a high life expectancy and a low corrosion rate. Plastic pipe does not collect the sediment on the pipe like cast and ductile. This is because of the low friction in the pipe between…

I mostly made the decision to do this because of the women like in Bananeras, women that have to work 7 days a week and 24 hours. Maybe not quite that much, but it’s in a sense how I felt when I read their stories. They have to work almost every day and we spend our day shopping for deals. It’s like a war on Black Friday, people fight and push and will do anything to get what they went out there for. We’re spending…

But first, a manager has to take the time to identify the toxic behavior. The behavior is often identified as toxic or poisonous because once it is in; it does take a great amount of work to filter it out. A manager can attempt to communicate with their personnel in reference to their issues and see if they can adequately reduce their damaging approach to convert into a helpful and positive colleague of the group. If that misses the…

Lucy McCormick, of ‘GET IN THE BACK OF THE VAN’ (GITBOTV), influenced my practice through her solo workshop and subsequent conversations because I found her style and attitude towards creative work particularly stimulating and we share an enthusiasm for pushing theatrical boundaries. Her approach demonstrates that, “the question of boundaries and extremes is always in the room” (McCormick, 2014). In our workshop on ‘The Importance of Being Ernest’ Lucy got one of my classmates, Laura, to chew…

In life people have to deal with all sorts of situations big and small. Social psychology has broken down how we deal with those situations into six dyads that are meant to show how we deal with the situations that we confront (Kenrick, D., Neuberg, S., Cialdini R. 2007). The first dyad is that different persons respond differently to the same situation (Kenrick, D., Neuberg, S., Cialdini R. 2007). For an example, let us say that an experiment in which a social scientist is trying to find out…
