Man in Charge of Feminist Movement

    The following information can be found in TheOnion. It has been a long time since women have been fighting for their rights. But it seems like having a female leader is not good enough to catch people's attention. A 58 year old man definitely does not think that the Feminist Movement is working so well. That is why he has taken charge of this, and is now the chief of the initiative for women's rights. A man by the name of Peter McGowan is full of confidence, and is ready to make a change for women.
    Peter has decided that the first thing he is going to take care of is sexual harassment. He puts this before securing reproductive rights and promoting healthy body images for women. He feels that it is the most important out of the rest. Peter claims that he is going to bring more attention to women's sports as well. It seems funny how a man is trying to take action and advance on the women's rights initiative. Maybe this unordinary action will catch more people's attention.

Coyote Vs. Acme

     This essay was written by Ian Frazier. It is about  the law-suit of Mr. Wile E Coyote. The plaintiff is Wile E Coyote and the defendant is the ACME company. Throughout the essay, some of Coyote's accidents are explained with details.  According to Coyote, these accidents happened due to ACME's products. The reason why Coyote is getting into many accidents is because he is not following the directions or reading the warnings of the ACME products. The purpose of this essay is to show how in some cases people get taken to court for stupid reasons. It is also to show how people defend themselves and interact in court. 

    The tone of this essay is humorous and informative. Frazier's statements are mostly sarcastic, which keeps the reader interested. The audience is the people in the court and the jury. Ian Frazier shows how much of a fool Coyote is in the essay but commenting on many of Coyote's excuses and reasons for his accidents. 

Happiness = Success?

     The following information can be found on CNN. The author of this article is Shawn Achor. Shawn Achor has written the book Happiness Advantage. He has studied at Harvard for 12 years, and is a current CEO of Good Think Inc. The article which he has written on CNN is about happiness. The idea of this article is whether happiness is scientifically beneficial or advantageous towards success. If one smiles and feels happy, they can do their work much better than those who do not feel happiness. 

    In the Article he has written the following challenges which one should do, in order to prove themselves that happiness is a big boost and advantage. He has said to exercise 10 minutes a day, write about positive experience for two minutes a day, meditate for two minutes, support a friend, and so on. I personally believe that happiness can have a positive affect on a person, especially when they are trying to accomplish a task or live their life. 

Language

     The way a person chooses to speak says a lot about them. You can tell a person is confident whenever he or she speaks loud, and articulates his or her words. If a person is shy, they tend to speak rather low. This does not mean that every person is like this. Those who stutter during times when they are considered "guilty" are possibly liars. When one does not make eye contact while speaking, it usually means that they are trying to stray from your eyes so they will not be afraid to lie.
     Armenians speak Armenian, but there is more than one type of Armenian language. This can give an idea to the listener of what type of Armenian he or she is. The accents differ the Armenian language. I get told a lot that I am considered a quiet person. That is because I choose to speak whenever I know my words will matter, be helpful, provide information, or make a difference.

Great Gatsby SOAPST

     We are currently reading the book Great Gatsby by Scott Fitzgerald. There are many books that have captivated my mind and interested me to continue reading it. This would be considered one of those books. Nick, the speaker, introduces us the behaviors of people with different social classes. There is a division between West Egg and East Egg. West Egg is where the wealthy, illegal drinkers live. East Egg is for the people who are much more wealthier than West Egg, and their money is inherited.
     The occasion of this story is New York during the 1920s. At the time, this was considered the "Jazz Age". One could picture a scene of flappers, dancing, and alcohol during this era. I consider the tone to be descriptive and mysterious. The story involves dealing with love, money, judgement and so on.

Jay Gatsby

     If I were as rich as Jay Gatsby and had a party I would spend my money on the most expensive stereo and music equippment. I would make sure that the music plays loud and the guests enjoy it. I would order an exaggerated amount of the best food I could find. The house would be decorated and would look sophisticated.
    On the outside of the house, there would also be decorations. Signs would be everywhere that welcomed anyone who wanted to enter. There would be dancers and people who served drinks. Statues would be standing nicely in the front yard. The house would look welcoming.

1920's Prohibition

    Nowadays, alcohol seems to be a very popular drink for celebrations involving adults. The required age to be able to consume and purchase alcohol is 21 and over. Some may say that alcohol is beneficial, while others may disagree. The 1920's Prohibition was the banning of alcohol. Immigrants thought that alcohol was beneficial, claiming that it can help people with socializing. On the other hand, reformers and Protestants were not okay with drinking. They thought that alcohol caused corruptions, anger, uncontrollable behavior and so on.
     What people did not expect was the irony of the banning of alcohol. Instead of solving problems that were already there, the Prohibition Act caused even more problems. People who were addicts could not control themselves. Businesses were going down because alcohol was to be banned. Personally, I think alcohol should be available to those who have control, respect, and use it for a good purpose.
