Problem Statement: In the problem That’s Entertainment we had to find out how the magician did his magic trick using math. The trick was as followed: you will shuffle the card then pull the first one off the top of the deck. For example, if the card is a 3 you’ll place it down then you’ll count up to 12 starting at 3. So if you pull of a 5 you’ll start counting at 5. If you pull out a face card, king, queen, and jack, you place it back into the deck. Once you get to the point where if you pull out a card and are unable to make another pill then you put those cards off to the side. Once you have done this, you will flip the decks, face down, then flip over the top card and add them up. You have to use the information

In “What Pop Lyrics Say to Us Today” writer Robert Palmer analyzes pop lyrics over the recent decades and concludes pop music sends dominant messages that are influential to young people. Pop has always thoroughly responded to current events, and today’s pop music continues to reflect that culture. To begin with, pop can change attitudes toward love. Palmer first refers to stars such as Bob Dylan and the Rolling Stones who endorse sex to urge social change and revolution. Their music was a voice and reminder to older generations that they possessed influential power. True romantic notions tend to be viewed with some suspicion. Palmer also discusses how in comparison to music of the 60’s, idealisms have changed since current times. The Beatles

5) The dinner with the Lav family was important to the Chan family because they are the only other family in their town that are their religion.

In the early 60s, Britain was known in America for essentially the Queen and tea. However, that all changed in February of 1964 when the Beatles touched down on American soil for the first time. Their first hop across the pond was no ordinary endeavor, as most British boy bands or performers had a hard time making it in the states. However, their venture to visit The Ed Sullivan Show ultimately changed America’s future. From that point forward, Americans began on their journey to find hope and expression through the Beatles’ music and their influence. In present day America, it is hard to imagine a day that passes by without the media mentioning the British Royal Family, the famous British supermodel, Cara Delavigne, or the British pop band, One Direction. However, most of these British obsessions wouldn’t be as prevalent in America today if it weren’t for the Beatles appearing on The Ed Sullivan Show or the pop culture phenomenon that ensued thereafter. If one thing is for certain, the Beatles invasion into the U.S. masked ambivalent socioeconomic affairs in the early ‘60s and accelerated the change in American pop culture.

The second’s week reading the “All that trouble down there” by James Dunkerley tells how the US media represented Central America during the conflict times these countries faced. Most of the history of Central America were told by US journalist. Since, most Americans didn’t know what was happening in Central America and the Caribbean. When the US films show the border, it represents it as a margin, a ___ of civilization. This representation was being seen for a very long time, and there is a belief that Latin America is not or can be as good as the United States.

The Beatles, a British band, quickly became a beloved act in the UK and the US. Young women were uncharacteristically drawn to the Beatles, and soon “Beatlemania” ensued. Beatlemania caused uproar in the streets and homes of people in the US. The Beatles made the women act “unruly” and “unladylike.” There were women and girls screaming, disobeying police officers, and chasing limousines.

When the British showed up on the scene all chaos broke loose and Beatle fever made its way into every young girl’s heart of the generation. Britain had a very significant effect on the American music industry and the general population who listened and enjoyed their music. The main spearhead for this “Invasion” was The Beatles. One product of that invasion was Tom Petty who remembers it being “absolutely earthshaking," he also said "Culturally, it changed everything in America, and probably the world. The influence on every part of our lives was huge, from social issues to fashion issues to music issues.

Most of the audience focus on their image and popular works. In fact, music of the Beatles contains rich creativity and have high artistic value but always being neglected. The Beatles have innovated advance recording technologies and produced different genres of high-quality rock music. Their talents and creativity could be reflected in two different aspects:

Picture this. The year is 1966. A 17 year old girl is huddled closely to the radio in her room, waiting desperately for the new Beatles song to play. She exhales with excitement at the anticipation of buying the new album when is comes, and prays that their tour concert will be in her area this time. Her best friend is sitting next to her, gushing about the events the fanclub they’re part of plans on celebrating this event with. Now fast forward 50 years, to 2016. We now see a 17 year old girl huddled closely to her computer, headphones on and waiting for Monsta X to release their new music video. She switches tabs in her browser and tweets to her friends and followers about supporting “the boys”. Already she has so many ideas for fanfics and

In the early wave, the Beatles created a frenzy that was never seen before in America. “In early August 1964, Beatlemania had become a full blown epidemic. Teenage girls jammed the theaters, singing along with the songs, shrieking and crying as each of the lovable mop tops did his star turn” (Ward, 279). Teenage girls were acting way out of line according to previous etiquette established in earlier decades. This started a gradual trend of major change from this point on. We could even say that the Beatles were the most influential entity on American behavior in the last forty years. In the second wave, a sort of “drug culture” emerged; headed by such bands as The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Pink Floyd and others. While the Beatles and the Stones (more so in the early years) had a clean-cut look, these bands were openly on acid, and it was well known that it was considered one of their main sources of creativity. “Held at Alexandra Palace…inside the cavernous structure, there were bands (often two at once, playing from full volume from opposite ends of the hall), an unending display of film and lights…about dawn, as the walls of Ally Pally began to turn pink, Pink Floyd finally came on…everyone had been waiting for them and everybody was on acid” (Ward, 355). This quote shows the elaborate performances that these “acid bands” put on, and how the audience was so high that the spectacle before them just added to the experience. This particular

Last week, I attended the College of Nursing & Health Care Professionals Kickoff event. I got to understand more about the career I plan to pursue. Also, I obtained useful information about the program and different clubs available for us. It was a very informative event, and I also met fellow nursing students. On that day I was able to talk with a member of the Student Nurses Association, and to sign up for more information about the club. On the other hand, I wasn’t able to talk to any faculty member since the event finished quickly, and I was at the line for learning more about the mentioned club. However, I got to meet a faculty member, named Angela, during this week. When I asked her about what professionalism meant

Lastly, the novel represents accurately the life of a writer and their personal thoughts upon literature and writing. Fangirl, shows the vulnerability and the limitations that writers experience when they write literary pieces. I find that being a writer is time consuming and therefore requires a lot of patients. In addition, they must be creative, because “the characters and the world make the story” (Rowell 107). Personally, I believe that writing is an art form, in which the writer must be talented and creative to convey his or her ideas through the use of a large word bank. For Cath, writing means that “[she] can stay in [a] world, this world [that she loves], as long as [she wants], as long as [she keeps] thinking of new stories” (Rowell

Kübler-Ross came up with idea that people pass through different stages after they find out that they are dying, but this idea has been debunked. The stages include Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. According to Kübler-Ross everyone who is the progress of dying goes through these stages, but according to some research not all people go through these stages or if they do they go through them in reverse (Lilienfeld, Lynn, Ruscio, & Beyerstein, 2009). Kübler-Ross’s stages are so popular because they give people a sense of predictability over their deaths (Lilienfeld, Lynn, Ruscio, & Beyerstein, 2009).

Celebrities are everywhere in the news, the latest gossip appears in the weekly magazines without fail. Whether they be an actor, athlete, dancer, designer, model, singer or just rich; there is someone out there who is watching that person like a hawk, not letting a single breath go unnoticed. Such is the life of the rich and famous, under the incessant gaze of journalists and the paparazzi. Lives that many people take a great interest in and admire to the point where others would liken this great interest and admiration to a cult-like worship of celebrities. This is a brief description of what I think to be celebrity culture.
