The ethics triangle is a model to follow to help militate against unethical decision-making. If Mayor Burns used this model it might have helped him make better decisions. When there is no moral discernment of what is right or wrong, a public official or administrator needs to analyze the situation carefully. However, in the following case study this does not appear to be something Mayor Burns practiced. For the purposes of this paper the case study “Gotta Love Those Bread & Butter Unions” will be analyzed. The source for all subsequent quotes is from this case study.…

Throughout the film’s three alternative versions of events, It poses deeper existential philosophical questions that challenge the audience’s perceptions of coincidences of relationships and the post-modern societal values of relationships. An example is the protagonist Lola and her boyfriend Manni’s relationships. The post-modern relationship value that they behold has been effectively conveyed throughout the film with the use of numerous distinctively film techniques. In commencement, the incorporations of several distinctive visual motifs are presented in order to convey the nature of Lola and Manni’s constantly changing relationship. The motif of Lola’s scream emphasises danger, fear and pain. The audience envisions Lola in full zoom “screaming”. The zoom effect magnifies her emotion and draws the attention to her red hair. The red motif evokes associations with love, passion, danger, blood and even death. The association of these motifs highlights Lola’s determination and energy in wanting to save her troubled boyfriend. Furthermore, the calamities caused by these motifs hence are represented through other mediums such as the monochrome “red scene” where Lola and Manni explore and challenge each other’s love. Lola questions the sincerity of Manni’s love towards her, as she is unconvinced. Their constant explorations of their love…

The theme of love is strongly displayed in both Run Lola Run and The Butterfly Effect which is shown through the use of many visual techniques. In Run Lola Run, Tykwer is able to explore Lola and Manni’s love through capturing their passion and love with the use of the red camera tinge. The ominous red becomes a repeating motif throughout the film for Lola and Manni’s relationship. The red tinge is in contrast with the dull city making Lola’s love and passion a main feature of the love story. Tykwer is also able to use the medium POV shot, showing Lola and Manni in each other’s arms possibly just after a moment of romance, this shot also suggests that love lends purpose and strength within our lives. Further uses of techniques to emphasise the importance of love throughout the film are shown through the scattered use of close up’s on both Lola and Manni’s face, provides the insight as to how they bring both comfort and a sense of security to each other. But at the same time the thought of losing one another strikes fear and hurt within the character’s eyes.…
Confidence and friendship relationship expressed by sound and image In Return to Homs and from Treeless Mountain, the cinematography and the editing show the confidence, solidarity, love and harmony between characters and other people in different scenes. For my essay, two scenes attracted my attention where Abdul Basset is leading songs and dances (In Return to Homs) and where Bin ( Song Hee Kim) and her sister Jin (Hee Yeon Kim) are sitting near the fire with their Grandma (Boon Tak Park) (in Treeless Mountain). I select these two scenes because they demonstrate a trusting and harmonic relationship between Abdul Basset and the crowd, also between Bin, her sister and their Grandma.…
After reading the book Love Dose by Bob Goff many wonderful Ideas stuck with me. I am amazed at how many truly wonderful things happened to one man. It brings me comfort to know that there are people out there like Bob who love’s all people, no matter what. Goff loves people not just because Jesus said to, but because he wants to. That concept to me is amazing and truly meaningful. The story that stuck out to me the most was the first chapter. I promise I read the book, but even after finishing the book over a month ago the first chapter stuck with me the most.…
There are three stories that I loved in particular during this quarter. The Things They Carried, A Roman Incident, and A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings. These three stories carried a lot of emotion and excitement. They all have different plots and backgrounds, but for the most part, there are so much in common between these three stories in a psychological, socio/political, spiritual, queer, and feminist lens. Besides those examples, the one thing that connects these three the most is that the reader can find love in all of the stories.…
John Williams is one of this century’s most popular and successful American orchestral composers. While best known for his film scores and ceremonial music, Williams is also a wellknown composer and conductor of concert works. He has composed the music and served as music director for nearly eighty films. His scores are lush, complex and exciting often relying heavily on brass more than strings. He has an amazing ability to craft a theme that fits the emotional tone of a film and continues to echo that theme at just the right times and levels.…

There is a certain pain that is felt whenever a loved one passes. Beyond sadness, it is hurt, it is anger, it is confusion, and an almost unidentifiable emptiness where the lungs should be. People who have not experienced such loss have a happy, if hazy, view of the world. Then, there are those who lose someone… a major someone... so very special. They do eventually move on, but the pain alters them forever. Ed Sheeran, in the song “Afire Love,” illustrates how the loss of an individual can impact everyone around them, young and old.…

The use of critical thinking is imperative when trying to persuade others. One must effectively use the three types of appeals in order to be successful. I have noticed how Danielle Crittenden and Judy Brady have used the three appeals in their essays “About Love” and “I Want a Wife.” Crittenden and Brady’s use of tone greatly effects how the audience perceives their writing.…
