Resume

"Jennie Finch Biography" Jock Bio. Black Book Partners, 2008. Web. 12 May 2010.

     <http://jockbio.com/Bios/Finch/Finch_bio.html>.

Jennie became an incredible softball player. Her dad immersed himself in softball and became Jennie’s personal coach. At age nine, she started playing in traveling league teams. As a member of the 10-and-under all-star team, Jennie and her family traveled to a different diamond anywhere in Southern California. When she turned twelve, she was a part of the 12-and-under traveling team, the California Cruisers, and led them to the 12-and-under American Softball Association national title in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Her 14-and-under ASA team captured the national title in 1995 (“Jennie Finch Biography”).

MLA Citation

King Hamlet "The Ghost" Character Analysis• Hamlet's deceased father• Comes back in the garden to speak to Hamlet• Informs Hamlet of his real death

o Claudius poisons him o Wants the throne

• Wants Hamlet to seek revenge on Claudius• Hamlet can't decide if it is a demon ghost or an angel ghost • Ends up believing him and tries to plot against Claudius to make

him tell the truth• The play shows Claudius' reaction• Never find out if The Ghost is good or bad, but it seems to be

telling the truth in the end

Why I chose The Ghost..

• Wrote my journals in The Ghost's perspective• Helped me understand his meaning in the play • I felt like although he didn't have a major part in the play, the little

he did was very significant

Metaphors Used in Anthem

• Anthemo anthem to self o the individual human being who realizes his glorified state of

existence and uses it to his own advantage o  lets a person be who they want to beo no restrictions to live their life

• Electric Boxo more than just the key to the plot developmento rediscovery of electricity epitomizes Rand's belief in individual

human potentialo refers back to Anthem as a metaphor

   

Anthem Metaphors

•  Nameso the names of characterso Equality

never really finds equality of himselfo Liberty

 represents love, hope and happiness she brings all of those aspects to Equlity

"Only in an individualistic, rational, objective world, can the flawed aims of collectivism be debunked." - Ayn Rand

Propaganda Techniques

Bandwagon• Most common• Trying to convince the

subject that one side is the winning side, because more people have joined it

Card Stacking• Presents only the good

information• Omits the bad, yet important

information

Lesser of Two Evils• Makes a person decide on the

better object• If presented with only the one

object, the person may shy away easier without being compared otherwise

Testimonials• Makes the buyer believe what

is said in a quotation or endorsement

• Thinks whatever happened to them could happen to themselves

Parting Thoughts

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the

bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." 

  

- Mark Twain
