The Importance Of Being Accepted When Coming Out As A Gay...
The Importance of Being Accepted When coming out as a gay individual, there is a desire to be loved and accepted for who they are by the family.
When parents reject their child's sexual orientation it often comes to kicking the child out of their home out of shame for their sexuality. In recent
statistics, 'Studies indicate that between 25% and 50% of homeless youth are LGBT and on the streets because of their sexual orientation or gender
identity' (Pflagnyc, Statistics You Should Know About Gay and Transgender Students). LGBT youth's also have an increased chance of living in an
abusive household with older parents due to a contrast of two different generations. The young generation of today is more susceptible to accepting
LGBT members because it is a more liberal time period. However, the older generations are most likely to shun them due to biblical or principals that
they grew up with. The more accepting parents are of things they cannot change, the happier the child often is after coming out to them. Homelessness
has become an issue in recent years as more teens are starting to come out to their parents, who have lived in the previous generation. Religion has
played a key part in the rejection of LGBT youth's due to its blunt statements like, "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is
abomination" (Bible 98). Older generations examine and follow the bible more closely than the newest generation and take certain verses to heart.

Aging Out Movie Analysis
In the documentary "Aging Out" directed by Roger Weisber, it is noticeable how these three teenagers (Risa, David, and Danielle) were trying to get
out of the Foster Care System and become independent adults. However, each one of them struggled with their task of becoming an independent
person. I will provide you with one of the sociological paradigms that I believe is strong within the documentary. Structural– Functionalism Theory,
which attempts to focus on the relationship between social institutions that are made up by society. The documentary gives perfect examples of
Functionalism because we can notice that those teenagers have all received criticisms from all adults who are in their lives. Criticism is a big
contributor to social change (which they experienced) because people use repetitive behavior since they only do what they have applied it, to
overcome problems in the foster system, all they have accumulated from criticisms and see no way to better themselves. Nonetheless, one big
contributor to the way these teenagers have felt with trying to enter into society is a sociological institute, which makes them meet social needs, for
example the government, it tries maintain stability and contribute to the well being, and be a society as an integrated whole. All three teenagers were in
foster care and in order for them to do good in society they need to follow rules and be a certain way to succeed in the "real world" (society).

Racism In Out Of Africa
Out of Africa
The novel Out of Africa was a very surprising one, and sadly, the plot wasn't the most surprising part. After reading this novel, a question left to ponder
could be, Is the Author, Karen Blixen, a racist? What drew some to the conclusion that the author was racist was her overwhelmingly condescending
tone throughout the novel.
The tone in the novel Out of Africa was quite interesting to observe. The author did not have a positive tone in the novel, despite her love for the
beautiful land of Africa. Her tone could be summed up by the word condescending. One way she sounded condescending was her choice of similes.
One example from the text was when she compared the natives of Africa to dogs. Another example was how Blixen described Kamante. "I suppose
that he had been leading a seclusive existence, like a sick animal" . It is upsetting to hear Blixen ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Racism is the belief that all members of each race posses(s) characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially as to distinguish it as inferior or
superior to another race or races. So, when Blixen states how all of the natives are so silent and explains that the natives answer questions cryptically
she is being racist, by definition. She always talks about the natives in a way that sounds condescending, and with the less than positive comparisons to
white people, one could say she lives a life filled with prejudice. Blixen goes on to say "I cannot carry the old bwana alone, you Kikuyus are fools".
Here Blixen was generalizing the Kikuyu tribe to be stupid. Blixen always acts like every native is the same. She fails to recognize the differences
between Africans and the similarities between everyone. She even stated that the natives could only listen to stories to make them seem less intelligent.
In this novel, she has done quite a few things to help the natives but ultimately we know that she is a racist through her

Analysis of the Movie Out of the Past
The movie Out of the Past directed by Jacques Tourneur fits within the traditions of film noir because it has some similar themes associated with it,
such as doomed love. Robert Mitchum plays the doomed, double–crossed , ex–private eye as Jeff Markham. The femme fatale is played by Jane Greer
as Kathie Moffat, who is trying to escape her future. Kirk Douglas as Whit Sterling plays the ruthless gangster czar in the film. The formal cinematic
elements in the movie are used to vividly describe the movie. You can see that the lighting is very shadowy and dark. The composition of the film
leaves the audience feeling trapped within Jeff's problems. For example, when Jeff starts his journey from Mexico to San Francisco we the audience

Also, throughout the film shadow's are splashed over Jeff like a deadly visual benediction, showing doomed fate. Flashback Analysis Throughout
the movie Jeff tells us the story through the flashback. He is telling his flashback to Ann, a girl he's in love with. The time period is set three years
back and is narrated by Jeff. The flashback is the backbone of the movie because it shows the audience how the whole situation started and ended.
Over half the movie is told through the flashback which is important because it shows that the character chooses to focus on the past instead of the
present. The flashback is told because Jeff is going to Lake Tahoe to handle some unfinished business and he decides to let Ann in on the truth. Jeff
was working for Whit and was assigned to find the girl who stole Whit's money. The flashback goes into great detail throughout the whole situation.
The theme passion is shown when Jeff meets up with Kathie. Soon enough he forgets all about getting the forty grand and returning Kathie to Whit.
Jeff fell for Kathie so they ran away to San Francisco. The characters in the flashback are shown to be a litte edgy. Fore example, when Kathie first
meets Jeff, she plays hard to get, pretending she is uninterested in him. On the other hand, Jeff plays it smooth and doesn't let it faze him. The whole

Literature Review Of The Out Of Body Experience
The out of body experience is a phenomenon experienced by a significant percentage of the population. During this experience, an individual
perceives his or her environment from a point of view that is separate from his or her physical body. In some cases, individuals have reported looking
down upon their own bodies, although Irwin (2000) suggested that the details of the experience may be determined by the individual's immediate
needs. For instance, in a life threatening situation, one may perceive a paradisal environment (commonly noted in near death experiences). Typically,
psychological processes such as memory, thought, and perception are unified and a separation of these processes is known as dissociation. Because the

During the study, postal questionnaires were completed by 113 university students, including 28 men and 85 women. These questionnaires were
comprised of three surveys. The first brief set of questions pertained to demographic information and the experience and frequency of out of body
experiences. The second survey was the Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES), which was used to generate scores regarding both pathological
dissociation and nonpathological dissociation (or psychological absorption). Finally, the Somatoform Dissociation Questionnaire (SDQ–20) was used
to measure the participant's proneness to somatoform dissociation. Within the questionnaires, 44 of the 113 participants reported having had an out of
body experience. To determine the relationship between dissociation and the out of body experience, the explored variables were examined in a
logistic regression analyses. This showed the the SDQ–20 was the only independent variable that was able to separate the participants who had
acknowledged out of body experiences from those who did not. Additionally, the SDQ–20 was also the only variable that significantly contributed to
the prediction of the frequency of out of body experiences. This, not only suggested that the out of body experience was related to dissociative
phenomena, but also indicated a relationship between somatoform dissociation, specifically, and out of body experiences. Accordingly,

Personal Narrative: Coming Out
Coming out.
For the most part when people think coming out, they think of an all at once announcement telling the whole world that you're gay, then, having a lot
of long emotional talks with your family. They think of it as everything changing. For the most part, that's from the eyes of people who will never
really have to come out as anything. As for myself, coming out was none of those things and nothing seemed to have really changed at all. For me it
was something that took a lot of learning, but in the end it was well worth it.

continuing to be normal. So I pushed it down again. Little did I know she would eventually be my best friend, and we would laugh about it together.
A few months later a friend came out to our group as bisexual, then later pansexual and she started attending the school's weekly GSA meetings. That

more ways a person could be.
Over the course of grade 9, I was still very brainwashed to automatically assume that everybody was straight until proven otherwise. So crushes on

Pros And Cons Of Aging Out
You come home on your 18th birthday, and rather than your mom and dad waiting to greet you and celebrate this milestone with you, your bags are
packed and waiting next to the door. For many foster children, this is a reality. Take John; for example, John is currently a senior at the L&N STEM
Academy who has recently turned 18. Unlike most people, turning 18 wasn't a happy occasion for him to look forward to. As he neared his 18th
birthday, he was not fantasizing about all the freedom he would soon have. Instead, he was trying to figure out where he would live. Every year more
than 23,000 children will age out of the foster care system (Gaille). This can be incredibly straining as most children who age out are still in high
school and don't have time for a full–time job, and typically, they have not built up a credit score. Without any source of income or a credit score, it
can be nearly impossible for these children to find an apartment or other housing. Some take up couch–hopping, spending nights on various friends'
couches for a few months, but, overall, 1/3 of foster children who age out spend their first night on the streets, and 1 in 5 are homeless within two
years of aging out (Stout). Aging out also comes with issues regarding education. Emancipated adolescents are three times more likely to never
receive a high school diploma or GED, with only 57% graduating high school by 19. Moreover, 1 in 4 emancipated young adults will be incarcerated

Persuasive Essay On Aging Out
According to the National Foster Youth institute, "More than 23,000 children age out of the US foster care system every year."() Aging out is the
process of a teens transitioning from the legal control of the foster care system, to independent living. Youth aging out of foster care should be given an
extension on foster care services after the age of 18, because it provides a stable home for teens, it increases the amount of college graduates and it
provides healthcare for those in need.
By providing a secure and stable home for teens , it teaches them responsibility and further equips them with stability in overall life decreasing
homelessness rates. Extending foster care services supplies former foster children with stable homes if they are in need. According to Foster Focus
Magazine, "65% of youth leaving foster care need immediate housing upon discharge"() Housing after foster care is an immediate issue that comes with
aging out. Over 50% of desperate former foster youth are searching for a home to begin their life independently. Statistics show that, "many foster youth
are placed in homes with complete strangers that sometimes are just as dysfunctional, if not more, than the homes they were removed from."()

announcing his homosexuality to the world. This planted a seed in Fisher's mind that would not seem to stop growing. Though deep down he knew
he was gay, he was not ready to admit it to himself or the outside world. Instead, Fisher suppressed his "gay side" and reinvented himself. He got a
girlfriend and views "coming out" as overrated, for Fisher views it as unfair and unjust that because of his inherently "wrong" sexualtity he has to go
through an emotional process of explaining who he is attracted to the people he loves. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

announced his sexuality to his class, he told some friends and word got around and he was not treated differently. While reading this I could not

wish to try." That made me the person I am today. Of course I knew the exhilarating smile on my face answered his question. He told me to put on the

Out Stealing Horses Analysis
In the novel, Out Stealing Horses by Per Petterson, a 67 year–old man named Trond who lives in solitude in Norway reflects back on the summer of
1948 where several significant events changed his life. It follows his progression of growing up and starting to understand more about the people and
surroundings that revolve around his life and how they've shaped him into becoming a mature and wise man. Eventually, he realizes the truth that
growing up is inevitable and accepts the fact that things will never be the same again. In Out Stealing Horses, Petterson uses the motif and imagery of
water to show how Trond's familiarity and interactions with the river reflects his gradual process of maturing from a innocent boy into a stronger man.
As a young boy, Trond's interactions with water illustrates his innocence, showing his youthful behavior and preservation of innocence. Growing up,
water has played a huge role in Trond's life; He would often go out, "fishing for trout in the river" (15) or "riding logs down the river" (15). These
activities that Trond engages in reflects Trond's close bond with the river and how it brought out his adventurous and youthful behavior. The dynamic
environment of the river and the never–ending flow of water is symbolic of Trond's constant energetic youth. As a kid, Trond was always outside
admiring the beauty of nature or out stealing horses, and the river provided him the opportunity to do that. In order to go out stealing horses, Trond
had to "row across the river"(32), in which the river acted as the path or gateway that led Trond to his next adventure. In addition, the river also
represents Trond's reluctance to change or grow out of his childhood. Trond recalls, "I could immerse myself in water up to my chin and remain the
person I was"(101). This highlights the idea that the river is a comfort zone in which Trond is able to submerge himself in and stay youthful. Trond

In N Out Analysis
On January 28th, I visited the In–N–Out Burger located at 2900 W Sahara Ave, Las Vegas. Like most In N Out locations, it is conveniently visible

Lgbtq Coming Out Model
Coming–out LGBTQ is a highly individual and personal process, where one concedes and affirms their sexual orientation or gender identity, and
deciding if, who and when to tell (1). Studies show that the nature of the process is 'ongoing, dynamic and social' because of the diversity and
complexity of individual humanity. It is particular to each person's unique circumstances. Sometimes the process is within their control, other times it
is far more complex. Coming–out can be as simple as revealing ones self–acceptance of sexual orientation or a terrifying journey of confronting fear

The LGBTQ stops fighting and comes to accept who they are, making peace with their sexual orientation or gender identity. Once the process of
internal acceptance has occurred, the LGBTQ may decide to come out to others. Disclosing to others is a personal and individual process with
respective timelines. Some LGBTQ's may feel that it is a necessity to disclose while another's experience might be more complex involving
vulnerability to fear and concern for their safety. During this time the LGBTQ generally weighs the advantages, disadvantages and risks, recognizing
what they have to lose or gain. Acceptance by others at this point is crucial to developing a positive self–esteem and self–concept. Acceptance by
others usually paves the way to tell more people as the LGBTQ finds acceptance for who they are. Rejection will validate the negative feeling that the
LGBTQ started out with, further injuring their self–esteem and causing them to return to internalizing their identity as seen in the pre–coming out phase
(2). Because acceptance is necessary to the development of a healthy self–concept, it is important for the LGBTQ to cautiously choose whom they will
disclose their identity to. The more significant the relationship the greater the impact disclosure will have on the LGBTQ's self–esteem. Studies show
that support from family and friends is significant to healthy identity development (3). This process of revealing sexual identity to important
relationships can take a long time. Just as it took a while for the LGBTQ to assimilate and process during the pre–coming out phase, family and friends

Aging Out of the Foster Care System
According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, every year close to 25,000 youth age out of the foster care system and are faced
with cold hard realities of adulthood. This does not include the youth who leave the system, which is estimated to be another 30,000. Most adolescents
anticipate their eighteenth birthday, as it brings on a new found sense of independence and most importantly a time of celebration. However when
foster children reach eighteen, they begin facing the challenges of transitioning to adulthood. These children disproportionately join the ranks of the
homeless, incarcerated, and unemployed. These youth are unprepared for the independent life they are forced to take on. The average age that young
adults who have never experienced foster care leave their family home for good is 24, and 40% return home again at least once afterwards (Margolin,
2008). With these facts being stated, we yet expect youth who has dealt with rejection after rejection to leave "home" of the state custody permanently
and fin for themselves. These youth sometimes have fewer than $250 in cash, only one–third have drivers licenses, and fewer than one–quarter have
the basic tools to set up a household, let alone the skills to know what to do with the tools (Krinsky, 2010). Youth exit care with no more than a

Should Henry Come Out Of The Closet Essay
Question: Should Henry (the 15 year old boy) come out of the closet and not keep his sexuality a secret from his family and friends? Yes, I feel
that Henry should come out of the closet. Ethical Principle 1 (Rights): Sexual orientation is inherent in every human being. It is something beyond
our control and it wasn't Henry's choice to be homosexual. It is his basic human right to decide if he wants to 'come out'. If he does, he should not
be judged as he definitely has reasons for doing so. He is probably tired of 'hiding' himself and what he truly is. Homosexuals are human as well. It is
wrong for society to place Henry as a subject for discrimination just because they perceive homosexuality as unacceptable. Instead, he deserves equal

People are judgmental and will discriminate when they can't accept differences. "When trouble comes, it is your family that supports you" – Guy
Lafleur. In worse case scenarios where his own family is unable to accept his sexuality, what more can we expect from the cruel society? It may result
in Henry living in self–destruction and psychological distress. Addressing the negative impact: Since family acceptance would mean the greatest, my
suggestion is to put Henry's family through counselling. Although it may be a long process, it will help change their perceptions and slowly accept
Henry for who he is. There is a need for society to learn to accept homosexuals. One solution is to increase the number of counselling and support
centres. By doing so, it encourages more homosexuals to accept themselves, thus making it more socially acceptable. We should not stress over the way

Negative Effects Of Coming Out Gay
The Effects of Coming out Gay
Many negative stereotypes are the cause of homosexuals failing to come out the closet to their friends, family and loved ones. There are also positive
effects to coming out as well but the negative opinions of some has triumphed across the nation during the last decade. Even though it may seem that
our country has come a long way and accepts homosexuals, we still have a long way to go. Why do such stereotypes override the good effects of

Impact Of Opt Out Systems
IMPACT OF OPT OUT SYSTEMS
The Taskforce consider opting out information to be more sensitive in nature than information provided by opting in Organ Donation Register ( Organ
Donation Taskforce , 20). The current is based on an open access website with an electronic register that is available to all hospital staff. In anopt–out
system, not registering in this register may mean that someone's organs may be taken when they have had a serious objection to this. Theoretically, it
is possible for someone to re–enter someone's name on the register without them knowing, although there is no evidence to suggest that this will
happen on a wide scale. This is why some may argue that an opt–out system would require far greater security due to the sensitive nature of the
information. This information could be accommodated on the Personal Demographics Service ( Organ Donation Taskforce , 2008) but entering all this
data would be a drain on the NHS resources especially at the start of an opt–out system which would involve entering the data of several million
people. People may also choose to be increasingly specific about which organs or tissues they choose to donate as medicine advances so the
framework required for would be rather complex. This would also take a large toll on the funds provided to the NHS with the costs of for the setup of

Miraglia, G. (2007). Coming out from behind the badge. Bloomington, IN: AuthorHouse.
Summary
Coming out from behind the badge is a novel written by a gay police officer named Greg focusing on homosexuality in the law enforcement profession.
Throughout part I of the novel, Greg uses his own personal stories, as well as other's personal stories, to help those going into law enforcement have a
better understanding of homosexuality in the workplace. Following in part II, Greg gives step by step advice about coming out of the closet to fellow
gay officers, and the ways to create an accepting workplace for the LGBT community.

life examples of what it can be like. This book gives great advice for those who are looking to come out in law enforcement as well as giving good
advice to those who may have fellow LGBT coworkers. It really shows LGBT officers options about what they can do about coming out in their
department while still ensuring a successful law enforcement career.

In relation to other American action films released in 1998, Out of Sight is a very fast faced movie much like the rest of them. The fast paced editing

(a) What is the essence of the accounting identity (the so called saving investment identity) that the two distinguished professors refer to?
Saving investment identity is a concept in National Income accounting that states that the amount saved (S) in an economy is equal to the amount
invested (I). It is an equilibrium expressed in terms of supply (S), and demand (I), for lending (loan–able funds). Sp (Private Saving) + Sg or (T–G)
(Government Saving or Budget Balance) = I.

Again, they are assuming the economy is at full employment or full potential when in fact, we are below full employment. Therefore the savings
investment identity does not prove anything about the effectiveness of fiscal policy. Fiscal policy is a completely valid and effective method to expand
the economy and move towards full employment. Fiscal policy can raise GDP, create jobs, increase income, etc... which is very beneficial. How can
these professors be so ignorant of the full picture? They are not taking all the proper details into account it's very surprising.
Again, we are in a recession, this allows GDP to rise. An increase in G, increases GDP, which increases S. Therefore the actual degree at which
interest rates rise and investments fall is not in line with what the professors think. They're off. They have not accounted for the rise in GDP and have
mistakenly assumed full employment and 100% crowding out effect when this is clearly not the case in a recession.

The 1981 film Blow Out and the 1976 film Carrie are just two of over thirty films directed by Brian De Palma. Although they span an array of genres
and topics, De Palma's films are recognizable by his distinct director's touch. De Palma's films adhere to Andrew Sarris's concept the auteur theory,
which posits that each film contains the director's distinguishable artistic personality. This artistic nature of both the film and director is evident in the
unique and consistent visual style and thematic elements present in each of the films. Blow Out and Carrie are executed with control and a special
attention to detail, so that each shot and scene is carefully constructed and inserted intentionally to drive the plot forward. De Palma's films contain
an expert use of visual grammar, in which the stories are told as much with camera moves and editing as dialogue. Like many of his films, Blow
Out and Carrie feature certain trademark elements of De Palma's work: the recurring theme of the male gaze, and the use of cinematic devices
including a split diopter lens, slow motion, and 360 degree pan. De Palma's use of these recurring cinematic tropes enable him to simultaneously place
his unique director's touch on these films as he crafts suspense filled visual masterpieces. Blow Out and Carrie exhibit the recurring theme of looking
and the male gaze present in much of De Palma's work. The films adhere to Laura Mulvey's three forms of looking: the camera, the audience, and the

with me last night?" I sat up, stretching my body. "I guess so. I didn't hear anything thou', he seemed to enjoy his event. Maybe Andy knows better.
Hey, you know what? You actually looked handsome on that tux, last night." Anastasia gave me a little pat on my face. I reached her hand and
pulled her down on my bed, messed her long brown hair. "Did mum say anything?" "No... you know mum is always cool about anything. It's always
daddy who is so fussy about all. After all, you know him, Andrey." "Yea, somewhat, I'm a bit troubled to face him tonight." Anastasia grinned to my

dining table, in our large dining hall, awaiting for the bosses to lead off the dinner. "Andy, was he truly pissed off last night?" the same question

The Importance Of Being Accepted When Coming Out As A Gay...

  • 1. The Importance Of Being Accepted When Coming Out As A Gay... The Importance of Being Accepted When coming out as a gay individual, there is a desire to be loved and accepted for who they are by the family. When parents reject their child's sexual orientation it often comes to kicking the child out of their home out of shame for their sexuality. In recent statistics, 'Studies indicate that between 25% and 50% of homeless youth are LGBT and on the streets because of their sexual orientation or gender identity' (Pflagnyc, Statistics You Should Know About Gay and Transgender Students). LGBT youth's also have an increased chance of living in an abusive household with older parents due to a contrast of two different generations. The young generation of today is more susceptible to accepting LGBT members because it is a more liberal time period. However, the older generations are most likely to shun them due to biblical or principals that they grew up with. The more accepting parents are of things they cannot change, the happier the child often is after coming out to them. Homelessness has become an issue in recent years as more teens are starting to come out to their parents, who have lived in the previous generation. Religion has played a key part in the rejection of LGBT youth's due to its blunt statements like, "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination" (Bible 98). Older generations examine and follow the bible more closely than the newest generation and take certain verses to heart. Because they read that ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 2. Aging Out Movie Analysis In the documentary "Aging Out" directed by Roger Weisber, it is noticeable how these three teenagers (Risa, David, and Danielle) were trying to get out of the Foster Care System and become independent adults. However, each one of them struggled with their task of becoming an independent person. I will provide you with one of the sociological paradigms that I believe is strong within the documentary. Structural– Functionalism Theory, which attempts to focus on the relationship between social institutions that are made up by society. The documentary gives perfect examples of Functionalism because we can notice that those teenagers have all received criticisms from all adults who are in their lives. Criticism is a big contributor to social change (which they experienced) because people use repetitive behavior since they only do what they have applied it, to overcome problems in the foster system, all they have accumulated from criticisms and see no way to better themselves. Nonetheless, one big contributor to the way these teenagers have felt with trying to enter into society is a sociological institute, which makes them meet social needs, for example the government, it tries maintain stability and contribute to the well being, and be a society as an integrated whole. All three teenagers were in foster care and in order for them to do good in society they need to follow rules and be a certain way to succeed in the "real world" (society). Therefore, navigating from teenage ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 3. Racism In Out Of Africa Out of Africa The novel Out of Africa was a very surprising one, and sadly, the plot wasn't the most surprising part. After reading this novel, a question left to ponder could be, Is the Author, Karen Blixen, a racist? What drew some to the conclusion that the author was racist was her overwhelmingly condescending tone throughout the novel. The tone in the novel Out of Africa was quite interesting to observe. The author did not have a positive tone in the novel, despite her love for the beautiful land of Africa. Her tone could be summed up by the word condescending. One way she sounded condescending was her choice of similes. One example from the text was when she compared the natives of Africa to dogs. Another example was how Blixen described Kamante. "I suppose that he had been leading a seclusive existence, like a sick animal" . It is upsetting to hear Blixen ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Racism is the belief that all members of each race posses(s) characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races. So, when Blixen states how all of the natives are so silent and explains that the natives answer questions cryptically she is being racist, by definition. She always talks about the natives in a way that sounds condescending, and with the less than positive comparisons to white people, one could say she lives a life filled with prejudice. Blixen goes on to say "I cannot carry the old bwana alone, you Kikuyus are fools". Here Blixen was generalizing the Kikuyu tribe to be stupid. Blixen always acts like every native is the same. She fails to recognize the differences between Africans and the similarities between everyone. She even stated that the natives could only listen to stories to make them seem less intelligent. In this novel, she has done quite a few things to help the natives but ultimately we know that she is a racist through her ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 4. Out Of The Silent Planet In the story "Out of the Silent Planet" by C.S. Lewis, Ransom, a physiology professor at Oxford University is kidnapped by two men who take him in a spaceship to Mars, or Malacandra as they call it. They plan on giving him over to the martians who live on Malacandra but Ransom runs away in fear he will be killed. As the story progresses, Ransom meets all sorts of martians and becomes immersed in the culture and language of this planet. Ransom is then faced with being called to meet a certain spirit of the planet and makes a small journey in search of this being. Through his experiences on Malacandra, Ransom grows in courage, shows his curiosity and exceptional intelligence. Throughout the story one sees Ransom grow in courage. When he is kidnapped by Devine and Weston, Ransom loses the fear that they might harm him and tries to escape from his captors when Devine and Weston think he is asleep. He is however, unable to get away. Throughout their journey to Malacandra Ransom loses a bit of his confidence and courage and does not try to fight Devine or Weston's wishes. However, upon arriving at the planet Ransom realizes he is going to be given over to the Sorns as a sacrifice. When a huge water beast surfaces and scares Weston and Divine, Ransom takes the opportunity to run away into the unknown land of Malacandra, far away from his captors.

  • 6. Analysis of the Movie Out of the Past The movie Out of the Past directed by Jacques Tourneur fits within the traditions of film noir because it has some similar themes associated with it, such as doomed love. Robert Mitchum plays the doomed, double–crossed , ex–private eye as Jeff Markham. The femme fatale is played by Jane Greer as Kathie Moffat, who is trying to escape her future. Kirk Douglas as Whit Sterling plays the ruthless gangster czar in the film. The formal cinematic elements in the movie are used to vividly describe the movie. You can see that the lighting is very shadowy and dark. The composition of the film leaves the audience feeling trapped within Jeff's problems. For example, when Jeff starts his journey from Mexico to San Francisco we the audience start to... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Also, throughout the film shadow's are splashed over Jeff like a deadly visual benediction, showing doomed fate. Flashback Analysis Throughout the movie Jeff tells us the story through the flashback. He is telling his flashback to Ann, a girl he's in love with. The time period is set three years back and is narrated by Jeff. The flashback is the backbone of the movie because it shows the audience how the whole situation started and ended. Over half the movie is told through the flashback which is important because it shows that the character chooses to focus on the past instead of the present. The flashback is told because Jeff is going to Lake Tahoe to handle some unfinished business and he decides to let Ann in on the truth. Jeff was working for Whit and was assigned to find the girl who stole Whit's money. The flashback goes into great detail throughout the whole situation. The theme passion is shown when Jeff meets up with Kathie. Soon enough he forgets all about getting the forty grand and returning Kathie to Whit. Jeff fell for Kathie so they ran away to San Francisco. The characters in the flashback are shown to be a litte edgy. Fore example, when Kathie first meets Jeff, she plays hard to get, pretending she is uninterested in him. On the other hand, Jeff plays it smooth and doesn't let it faze him. The whole flashback sets us up for the ending and ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 7. Literature Review Of The Out Of Body Experience The out of body experience is a phenomenon experienced by a significant percentage of the population. During this experience, an individual perceives his or her environment from a point of view that is separate from his or her physical body. In some cases, individuals have reported looking down upon their own bodies, although Irwin (2000) suggested that the details of the experience may be determined by the individual's immediate needs. For instance, in a life threatening situation, one may perceive a paradisal environment (commonly noted in near death experiences). Typically, psychological processes such as memory, thought, and perception are unified and a separation of these processes is known as dissociation. Because the out of... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... During the study, postal questionnaires were completed by 113 university students, including 28 men and 85 women. These questionnaires were comprised of three surveys. The first brief set of questions pertained to demographic information and the experience and frequency of out of body experiences. The second survey was the Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES), which was used to generate scores regarding both pathological dissociation and nonpathological dissociation (or psychological absorption). Finally, the Somatoform Dissociation Questionnaire (SDQ–20) was used to measure the participant's proneness to somatoform dissociation. Within the questionnaires, 44 of the 113 participants reported having had an out of body experience. To determine the relationship between dissociation and the out of body experience, the explored variables were examined in a logistic regression analyses. This showed the the SDQ–20 was the only independent variable that was able to separate the participants who had acknowledged out of body experiences from those who did not. Additionally, the SDQ–20 was also the only variable that significantly contributed to the prediction of the frequency of out of body experiences. This, not only suggested that the out of body experience was related to dissociative phenomena, but also indicated a relationship between somatoform dissociation, specifically, and out of body experiences.

Baseball doesn't stand alone when it comes to being a great American pastime... eating is right up there near the top of the list too.

Cleanliness, comfort, and decor all say a lot. The unspoken feeling you experience when you enter the door can be a hands down win or a deal breaker. There is a lot to be said about first impressions. Details are part of the package. Is the seating comfortable? Being uncomfortable will not give you the desire to linger or return. Is the decor what you were expecting, elegant, ethnic, exotic, or appropriate for the theme of the restaurant? Is the lighting too much or not enough? What about the temperature, too hot or too cold? Each of the above does affect your dining experience in a positive or negative way. Upon entering a restaurant in Montgomery, AL you want it to be clean.

For the most part when people think coming out, they think of an all at once announcement telling the whole world that you're gay, then, having a lot of long emotional talks with your family. They think of it as everything changing. For the most part, that's from the eyes of people who will never really have to come out as anything. As for myself, coming out was none of those things and nothing seemed to have really changed at all. For me it was something that took a lot of learning, but in the end it was well worth it.

Curly blonde hair and perfect blue eyes, she was absolutely stunning. I definitely had a crush on her, but I was not gay. I would not let this crush keep me from continuing to be straight, continuing to be normal. So I pushed it down again. Little did I know she would eventually be my best friend, and we would laugh about it together. A few months later a friend came out to our group as bisexual, then later pansexual and she started attending the school's weekly GSA meetings. That little coming out started a spark in my mind, and everything started to make a lot of sense. Maybe there was more to life than just straight or gay, more ways a person could be. Over the course of grade 9, I was still very brainwashed to automatically assume that everybody was straight until proven otherwise. So crushes on girls really didn't last longer than a week or two. I didn't have a chance and I knew it, so I'd lose interest really quickly. I kept pushing it down, pretending it wasn't happening, but at least I was starting to understand what I was feeling.

It is not a good memory, one you will probably not tell your mother about until you are well in your forties? I had one of those during my second week of college.

I met Reggie through Dionia, they are both from Orangeburg, SC and attended the same high school. Reginald is Reggie's roommate which is how I met Reginald, and Fredrek is Reginald's friend. Fredrek, Reginald and I all happen to be from the same town so we all clicked instantly. The second week of school we were all ready to go out and had some fun, that night we decided to meet up in my dorm so we could go out together. Until that night on Franklin Boulevard I had never felt so scared and helpless in my life. I was never a person to go out and party in my hometown, but being 18 and in college I decided I would branch out a little but not to where I would be uncomfortable.

  • 12. Pros And Cons Of Aging Out You come home on your 18th birthday, and rather than your mom and dad waiting to greet you and celebrate this milestone with you, your bags are packed and waiting next to the door. For many foster children, this is a reality. Take John; for example, John is currently a senior at the L&N STEM Academy who has recently turned 18. Unlike most people, turning 18 wasn't a happy occasion for him to look forward to. As he neared his 18th birthday, he was not fantasizing about all the freedom he would soon have. Instead, he was trying to figure out where he would live. Every year more than 23,000 children will age out of the foster care system (Gaille). This can be incredibly straining as most children who age out are still in high school and don't have time for a full–time job, and typically, they have not built up a credit score. Without any source of income or a credit score, it can be nearly impossible for these children to find an apartment or other housing. Some take up couch–hopping, spending nights on various friends' couches for a few months, but, overall, 1/3 of foster children who age out spend their first night on the streets, and 1 in 5 are homeless within two years of aging out (Stout). Aging out also comes with issues regarding education. Emancipated adolescents are three times more likely to never receive a high school diploma or GED, with only 57% graduating high school by 19. Moreover, 1 in 4 emancipated young adults will be incarcerated within two years, ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Persuasive Essay On Aging Out According to the National Foster Youth institute, "More than 23,000 children age out of the US foster care system every year."() Aging out is the process of a teens transitioning from the legal control of the foster care system, to independent living. Youth aging out of foster care should be given an extension on foster care services after the age of 18, because it provides a stable home for teens, it increases the amount of college graduates and it provides healthcare for those in need. By providing a secure and stable home for teens , it teaches them responsibility and further equips them with stability in overall life decreasing homelessness rates. Extending foster care services supplies former foster children with stable homes if they are in need. According to Foster Focus Magazine, "65% of youth leaving foster care need immediate housing upon discharge"() Housing after foster care is an immediate issue that comes with aging out. Over 50% of desperate former foster youth are searching for a home to begin their life independently. Statistics show that, "many foster youth are placed in homes with complete strangers that sometimes are just as dysfunctional, if not more, than the homes they were removed from."() Unfortunately there are children in foster care that often get bounced from home to home never really knowing when they are safely sheltered.

I choose to analyze and reflect on this text for I believe it displays various situations and perceptions in response to one coming out. The author starts by explaining how he came to terms with himself. When Fisher was younger he idolized his brother's bravery for announcing his homosexuality to the world. This planted a seed in Fisher's mind that would not seem to stop growing. Though deep down he knew he was gay, he was not ready to admit it to himself or the outside world. Instead, Fisher suppressed his "gay side" and reinvented himself. He got a girlfriend and views "coming out" as overrated, for Fisher views it as unfair and unjust that because of his inherently "wrong" sexualtity he has to go through an emotional process of explaining who he is attracted to the people he loves. ...

I kept my head up and walked over towards him. He began talking and I remember him saying, "I can tell you have the potential, but you are still terrified of the ball." My heart sank further when he said that because the thought of removal, and seconds later I could feel the tears building up, like an emotional tornado taking over.

  • 19. Out Stealing Horses Analysis In the novel, Out Stealing Horses by Per Petterson, a 67 year–old man named Trond who lives in solitude in Norway reflects back on the summer of 1948 where several significant events changed his life. It follows his progression of growing up and starting to understand more about the people and surroundings that revolve around his life and how they've shaped him into becoming a mature and wise man. Eventually, he realizes the truth that growing up is inevitable and accepts the fact that things will never be the same again. In Out Stealing Horses, Petterson uses the motif and imagery of water to show how Trond's familiarity and interactions with the river reflects his gradual process of maturing from a innocent boy into a stronger man. As a young boy, Trond's interactions with water illustrates his innocence, showing his youthful behavior and preservation of innocence. Growing up, water has played a huge role in Trond's life; He would often go out, "fishing for trout in the river" (15) or "riding logs down the river" (15). These activities that Trond engages in reflects Trond's close bond with the river and how it brought out his adventurous and youthful behavior. The dynamic environment of the river and the never–ending flow of water is symbolic of Trond's constant energetic youth. As a kid, Trond was always outside admiring the beauty of nature or out stealing horses, and the river provided him the opportunity to do that. In order to go out stealing horses, Trond had to "row across the river"(32), in which the river acted as the path or gateway that led Trond to his next adventure. In addition, the river also represents Trond's reluctance to change or grow out of his childhood. Trond recalls, "I could immerse myself in water up to my chin and remain the person I was"(101). This highlights the idea that the river is a comfort zone in which Trond is able to submerge himself in and stay youthful. Trond doesn't want to grow out of his childhood and the river protects his innocence. Even with the "current pounding away and pulling at his body,"(101) Trond felt untouched and remained the same person. This shows how the river maintains Trond's growth into a man and it serves to show that Trond is the "anchor of ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The LGBTQ stops fighting and comes to accept who they are, making peace with their sexual orientation or gender identity. Once the process of internal acceptance has occurred, the LGBTQ may decide to come out to others. Disclosing to others is a personal and individual process with respective timelines. Some LGBTQ's may feel that it is a necessity to disclose while another's experience might be more complex involving vulnerability to fear and concern for their safety. During this time the LGBTQ generally weighs the advantages, disadvantages and risks, recognizing what they have to lose or gain. Acceptance by others at this point is crucial to developing a positive self–esteem and self–concept. Acceptance by others usually paves the way to tell more people as the LGBTQ finds acceptance for who they are. Rejection will validate the negative feeling that the LGBTQ started out with, further injuring their self–esteem and causing them to return to internalizing their identity as seen in the pre–coming out phase (2). Because acceptance is necessary to the development of a healthy self–concept, it is important for the LGBTQ to cautiously choose whom they will disclose their identity to. The more significant the relationship the greater the impact disclosure will have on the LGBTQ's self–esteem. Studies show that support from family and friends is significant to healthy identity development (3). This process of revealing sexual identity to important relationships can take a long time.

  • 22. Aging Out of the Foster Care System According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, every year close to 25,000 youth age out of the foster care system and are faced with cold hard realities of adulthood. This does not include the youth who leave the system, which is estimated to be another 30,000. Most adolescents anticipate their eighteenth birthday, as it brings on a new found sense of independence and most importantly a time of celebration. However when foster children reach eighteen, they begin facing the challenges of transitioning to adulthood. These children disproportionately join the ranks of the homeless, incarcerated, and unemployed. These youth are unprepared for the independent life they are forced to take on. The average age that young adults who have never experienced foster care leave their family home for good is 24, and 40% return home again at least once afterwards (Margolin, 2008). With these facts being stated, we yet expect youth who has dealt with rejection after rejection to leave "home" of the state custody permanently and fin for themselves. These youth sometimes have fewer than $250 in cash, only one–third have drivers licenses, and fewer than one–quarter have the basic tools to set up a household, let alone the skills to know what to do with the tools (Krinsky, 2010).

Yes, I feel that Henry should come out of the closet. Ethical Principle 1 (Rights): Sexual orientation is inherent in every human being. It is something beyond our control and it wasn't Henry's choice to be homosexual. It is his basic human right to decide if he wants to 'come out'. If he does, he should not be judged as he definitely has reasons for doing so. He is probably tired of 'hiding' himself and what he truly is. Homosexuals are human as well.

Addressing the negative impact: Since family acceptance would mean the greatest, my suggestion is to put Henry's family through counselling. Although it may be a long process, it will help change their perceptions and slowly accept Henry for who he is. There is a need for society to learn to accept homosexuals. One solution is to increase the number of counselling and support centres. By doing so, it encourages more homosexuals to accept themselves, thus making it more socially acceptable.

There are also positive effects to coming out as well but the negative opinions of some has triumphed across the nation during the last decade. Even though it may seem that our country has come a long way and accepts homosexuals, we still have a long way to go. Why do such stereotypes override the good effects of coming out gay? Coming out as a homosexual improves the quality of life such as making the individual feel confident and happier within. My own experience will serve as an example on how these things can reduce the confidence level in someone that wants to be open to friends, family and loved ones.

  • 27. Impact Of Opt Out Systems IMPACT OF OPT OUT SYSTEMS The Taskforce consider opting out information to be more sensitive in nature than information provided by opting in Organ Donation Register ( Organ Donation Taskforce , 20). The current is based on an open access website with an electronic register that is available to all hospital staff. In anopt–out system, not registering in this register may mean that someone's organs may be taken when they have had a serious objection to this. Theoretically, it is possible for someone to re–enter someone's name on the register without them knowing, although there is no evidence to suggest that this will happen on a wide scale. This is why some may argue that an opt–out system would require far greater security due to the sensitive nature of the information. This information could be accommodated on the Personal Demographics Service ( Organ Donation Taskforce , 2008) but entering all this data would be a drain on the NHS resources especially at the start of an opt–out system which would involve entering the data of several million people. People may also choose to be increasingly specific about which organs or tissues they choose to donate as medicine advances so the framework required for would be rather complex.

  • 31. Is The Theme Of Power In The Film Out Of Sight By Steven... In the film Out of Sight (Steven Soderbergh, 1998) elements of mise en scene, lighting, editing and characters reveal the themes of identity, love and power. The theme of power directly relates to the economic boom in the United States in the 1990s and the population's strive for success. These themes are brought out through the repetitive use of the color red in the film and are also used to relate back to the title. In relation to other American action films released in 1998, Out of Sight is a very fast faced movie much like the rest of them. The fast paced editing style that Soderbergh utilized in the film relates very much to the race to power that was so prevalent in the 1990s.

The first shot of this sequence is of Foley sitting in a chair at a desk with a red colored wall behind him. Right away the color red is introduced on the wall as well as on the desk in pens, the top of a yogurt, a potted plant and the wrapper of a power bar. After the man who was at the desk in front of Foley leaves the room, Foley's eyes gaze upon the contents of the desk. The camera pans over the red objects on the desk and then stops to rest upon the wrapper of the power bar. Half eaten and half unwrapped, only the red words "power" are exposed. This is an exceptional shot because it reveals the color red and reveals the word "power", which illustrates the fact that the men in Ripley Enterprise have power and Foley does not. In the next shot, the man at the desk enters the room once again holding a suit and Foley turns away from looking at the power bar to blankly staring at the dull colored suit. This suit represents what Foley could become; a regular guy with a regular job of being a security guard but for him this isn't going to cut it. Foley is obsessed with the idea of being higher class than he ever will be and this is reflected by the way he stared at the "power" on the wrapper; because power is something he desperately wants.

(a) What is the essence of the accounting identity (the so called saving investment identity) that the two distinguished professors refer to? Saving investment identity is a concept in National Income accounting that states that the amount saved (S) in an economy is equal to the amount invested (I). It is an equilibrium expressed in terms of supply (S), and demand (I), for lending (loan–able funds). Sp (Private Saving) + Sg or (T–G) (Government Saving or Budget Balance) = I. The authors are assuming full employment, where S=I. The saving "identity" where S=I holds true by ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Again, they are assuming the economy is at full employment or full potential when in fact, we are below full employment. Therefore the savings investment identity does not prove anything about the effectiveness of fiscal policy. Fiscal policy is a completely valid and effective method to expand the economy and move towards full employment. Fiscal policy can raise GDP, create jobs, increase income, etc... which is very beneficial. How can these professors be so ignorant of the full picture? They are not taking all the proper details into account it's very surprising. Again, we are in a recession, this allows GDP to rise. An increase in G, increases GDP, which increases S. Therefore the actual degree at which interest rates rise and investments fall is not in line with what the professors think. They're off. They have not accounted for the rise in GDP and have mistakenly assumed full employment and 100% crowding out effect when this is clearly not the case in a recession. An example from the text that illustrates the flaw in their argument: "In the case of [government] infrastructure spending, MPKf rises, so investment increases. Saving shifts and investment shifts.

There are several reasons some might hide their sexuality for a longer time than anticipated. It has also been proven that coming out as a homosexual can improve quality of life such as making the individual feel confident and happier within themselves. With the favorable effects also come the adverse effects of coming out.

  • 36. Similarities Between Anna Karenina And Out Of Africa "Anna Karenina" and "Out of Africa" are two films that can be compared to a roller coaster ride at a carnival. A roller coaster ride excites and thrills us but at the very same time we feel anxiety and fear. The roller coaster rises, falls, twists and turns. This defines the journey of the characters as they embark upon their travels which are filled with peaks of joy and valleys of heartache, sorrow and death. The characters are vulnerable and impressionable as they face the dangers of adultery, self–discovery and feministic resistance. Perceptions, assumptions, fantasy and opinions are formed by the characters as they embark on their roller coaster ride. This adds to the intrigue and suspense on their epic journey to uncover their inner truths. The world is a stage as the aristocratic lives of the characters is showcased in the stylised film "Anna Karenina".

When the Karen flies in a plane, she compares looking down to looking through the eyes of God and her instilled passion for Africa. The natural lighting used in this scene engulfs the simplicity of the unmodernized world.

The chief of the clan is a bit stirred at having to deal with a woman, but gives in to her proposition, giving permission for his people to work for her. Being a woman was also a challenge later in her life and the movie, when her husband, Bror, goes off to defend the country from an ensuing war. Left to run the coffee plantation alone, Karen finds the strength to commit to the job. She fights off a lion during the night with a bullwhip and later shoots an attacking lion with a rifle, gaining confidence as an independent woman and proving her worth to the Somali. The biggest challenge Karen faced in the movie and her life was the barrier she had to overcome to relate to the native Somali people as a white woman.

  • 39. Film Analysis Of Blow Out And The 1976 Film Carrie The 1981 film Blow Out and the 1976 film Carrie are just two of over thirty films directed by Brian De Palma. Although they span an array of genres and topics, De Palma's films are recognizable by his distinct director's touch. De Palma's films adhere to Andrew Sarris's concept the auteur theory, which posits that each film contains the director's distinguishable artistic personality. This artistic nature of both the film and director is evident in the unique and consistent visual style and thematic elements present in each of the films. Blow Out and Carrie are executed with control and a special attention to detail, so that each shot and scene is carefully constructed and inserted intentionally to drive the plot forward. De Palma's films contain an expert use of visual grammar, in which the stories are told as much with camera moves and editing as dialogue. Like many of his films, Blow Out and Carrie feature certain trademark elements of De Palma's work: the recurring theme of the male gaze, and the use of cinematic devices including a split diopter lens, slow motion, and 360 degree pan. De Palma's use of these recurring cinematic tropes enable him to simultaneously place his unique director's touch on these films as he crafts suspense filled visual masterpieces.
