The film opens with a news report about missing persons and then cuts to the man dumping an unconscious girl on a bloody table. When she wakes up, they struggle over a weapon. He eventually overpowers her and brutally kills her. He then answers the door to two trick-or-treaters while hiding the evidence of his crimes.
Commentary advertsing devices ppt
Advertising aims to persuade consumers using various language devices including imperative verbs, questions, exclamations, clichés, superlatives, intensifiers, emotive adjectives, alliteration, rhyme, and statistics. Some key devices discussed are clichés (overused expressions like proverbs, idioms, catchphrases, similes and metaphors), superlatives and intensifiers (words that strengthen or weaken other words), and alliteration (repetition of initial consonant sounds in successive words).
Challenging conventions and stuff
The document discusses horror film conventions that the author researched and analyzed in films like Se7en, The Conjuring, and Dawn of the Dead. Some key conventions mentioned include non-diegetic music, faster editing and shots to build suspense, contrasting shots of villains and vulnerable characters, dark colors, and abrupt cuts in sound. The author's group used several of these conventions in their own work, such as flashbacks, louder soundtracks, contrasting characters, and loud noises followed by silence. They also aimed to be more original by adding a character often associated with fun to create an eerie atmosphere and exploit people's fears.

The novel, set in 1980s Scotland, follows young men who use drugs. To simulate speech, the writer uses phonetic spelling, abbreviated forms, slang words and idioms, and a colloquial style. While some complex sentences indicate a written text, manipulated pronunciation and vocabulary help give the dialogue a sense of authentic oral communication.

a monologue of between one and two minutes in length and record it. Post it for class comment, only
positive
comments are allowed. You may find a monologue in a play, a movie, a political speech, poetry, or an oral interpretation of a song. Verses from a religious text are acceptable, someone even did a monologue by a video game character. '
Please, no Shakespeare or original monologues.
' Be warned, if you do something like “Mary had a Little Lamb,” or “The Lord’s Prayer,” you will be asked to do the exercise again.
Example (It doesn't need to be as formal as mine but it would help to say your name before you begin, there are two monologues on my audition tape from a few years back. I was offered a job at a Shakespeare Festival from this but was unable to accept it):
Perhaps this example of a master actor plying his craft may be helpful. I started this insane business because of the inspiration I found in the great "Method" performers of James Dean and Marlon Brando but I keep at because of craftspeople like Sir Anthony Hopkins. His amazing technique is analyzed in this clip.
Probably the most famous monologue is from
The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark. W
hat do you think it means? What does it mean to you?
To be, or not to be, that is the question,
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause: there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life;
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office and the spurns
That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscover'd country from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pith and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry,
And lose the name of action.--Soft you now!
The fair Ophelia! Nymph, in thy orisons
Be all my sins remember'd.
If it helps, this is how the passage could "scan" in iambic pentameter. Be aware it's not a sing-song rhythm. Shakespeare reverses the downbeat for emphasis, the trick is figuring out where he does it. He never makes.

Wound healing PPT
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
