I bet you’re wondering why we have rain or more importantly, what is rain?
It goes back to years and years ago. There once was a god, he’s name was pathos, which translates to passion. Pathos felt passion for everything he was involved in. From food to love, he felt everything. Pathos decided to visit earth, he was feeling utterly lonely that day and went to seek for a lover. Pathos knew that he shouldn’t get involved with a human because they were no good. They always wanted something they couldn’t have, even if what they have is the best, they still seek for more. One this day Pathos met a man with the name of Ripso. This man was everything Pathos could ever want. Not only was this man handsome, but he was also wise. Pathos quickly fell in love with …show more content…
Pathos dreaded this day, he never wanted to leave Ripso. But Pathos had a plan, he was going to ask Ripso to join him in the heavens. It isn’t easy converting a human into a god but Pathos was down for the cause and would do anything to live with Ripso forever. Pathos met up with Ripso at a creek hidden by trees. “Ripso,” Pathos started “I love you very much, you know.” Ripso nodded in agreement. “Well, would you care to join me in heavens? You see, I am no longer allowed to spend time on earth. I’ve been here for a long while and the gods are getting angry with me.” Pathos confessed. Ripso looked at Pathos longingly, “I’m so very truly sorry,” Ripso began, “But I have fallen in love with another human being.” Ripso admitted. Ripso looked at Pathos with sorry eyes but soon Pathos was floating into the heavens. Every day Pathos cried. The pain was bearable but Pathos was tragically sad. Full of sorrow, Pathos would cry. Pathos cried so hard and long that soon his tears leaked through the clouds and landed on earth. No human knew what it was but Ripso knew. He knew it was his ex lover's

...Be Spoiled Being spoiled used to mean getting everything you wanted, whenever you wanted. Being spoiled was having "mommy" and "daddy" shower you with all kinds of goods and love. Being spoiled was not having responsibilities; it was about not having to worry about price tags or if you'll have enough money later on. Being spoiled did not know what budget was. Now a day's being spoiled is getting more help than you need. Am I really being spoiled? Or am I just getting more help than I need? For anyone that doesn’t know me, doesn’t know that I work hard for everything I buy. I work to support my own shopping habits; I don’t buy what I can't afford. Though I rarely borrow, I payback every penny I do borrow. Every now and again I tend to find a pair of shoes I don’t think I could live without. That's when mommy or daddy lend me a few bills which eventually down the line get paid back, in full. Just recently I learned that when people first meet me they get the impression that I must be a spoiled brat. I never knew the vibe I gave off until I was confronted by a guy who couldn’t seem to understand why I work two jobs. What he knew about me was so little and mostly of my past. He knew the girl that took weekend trips to New York for seasonal shopping. The girl that never paid for anything herself, never worked for anything. The girl that was handed anything she asked for whenever she asked for it. He knew that the girl that didn’t know what a budget was, never looked at price...

...materials but the company wanted to wait until she was eighteen but she knew she was ready to launch her career with her own material, so she left that record company. At a café in Nashville, Swift caught the attention of Scott Borchetta, a DreamWorks records executive who was preparing to form his own independent record label, Big Machine records. Taylor was one of his new labels first signings. Since then she has written over 200 songs which all written about her true experience and feelings.

The Constant Gardener

...films dealing with serious issues. In this case the film is a conspiracy thriller, which looks at the involvement of a large pharmaceutical company in testing drugs in Africa. That said, the film is much more, combining a love story, a quest for revenge and expressing real anger about the West’s apparently unchecked exploitation of ordinary African people. The Constant Gardener is an adaptation of a novel by the British writer John le Carré, best known for his tales of spies and Cold War intrigue. Fernando Meirelles seemed an odd choice for director, because of his Brazilian background and the seemingly huge difference between this film and his first feature, the explosive story of a Rio favela, City of God (2003). www.filmeducation.org 1 Mike Newell was the first choice for director, but had already committed himself to the new Harry Potter film, but Meirelles was very interested in the project. He told The Independent, ‘The chance to take on the pharmaceutical industry was one of the three elements that made me want to direct The Constant Gardener, as was the chance to shoot in Kenya. Also, it’s a very original love story about a man who marries a much younger woman who is very different from him, and it’s only after she dies that he truly falls in love with her.’ Meirelles’ Brazilian background gave him a source of empathy with the poverty in the Nairobi shantytown of Kibera, the largest slum in sub-Saharan Africa where some of the film was shot. Crucially his sense of...

Capitalism

...Capitalism: A Love Story, which opened in 962 theaters earlier this month, is Michael Moore’s most ambitious work yet – taking aim at the root cause behind the injustices he’s exposed in his other films over the last 20 years. This time capitalism itself is the culprit to be maligned in Moore’s trademark docu-tragi-comic style. And by using the platform of a major motion picture to make a direct assault at the root of the problem, Moore has created space in the political mainstream for a radical conversation (radical meaning “going to the root”). It’s a conversation that is desperately needed as the economic crisis continues to devastate low- and middle-income Americans in spite of President Obama’s and Congress’ efforts to stop the bleeding by throwing trillions of dollars at the banks. Yesterday, Democracy Now! reported that while the Dow Jones topped 10,000 for the first time in a year, foreclosures have reached a record level of 940,000 in the third quarter. But with this film airing in major chain cinemas across the nation, the normally taboo topics of how wealth is divided, who owns Congress, and how vital economic decisions are made are now open for discussion in a way they haven’t been in the U.S. for decades. In Capitalism, Michael Moore features the reality of the economic crisis for America’s usually-invisible poor and working class. The movie begins with a family filming their eviction from their own home. In a terrifying scene, we watch from inside their living...

Dove Real Beauty Advertisement Analysis

...along with bright lighting in the room, which made the ad appear very innocent and light-hearted. The next noticeable pathos appeal was the emotions of all the subjects that participated in this project. They were shown smiling when the strangers would describe their best features to the artist and they were shown crying happy tears when they saw the end product of the sketch comparisons. Seeing their end reaction emotionally touched me the most and I even had to get up at one point to grab a box of tissues because I began crying. The strong pathos brought out my emotions and reminded me how I once related to the issue of not realizing my beauty when I was thirteen years old. Back then, I watched a similar video on how we’re all beautiful and it changed my perspective after watching it. I can understand how people could be touched by this ad and it even reminds me a little bit of the ASPCA commercials that get me emotional. There is a definitely a decent amount of pathos in this ad and it does its job for...

...speech took place in Philadelphia, PA at the National Constitution Center. This speech was given during the 2008 Presidential race and looks to address the concerns regarding video of controversial and racially charged comments made by former pastor Jeremiah Wright which seemed to playing on loop in every media outlet possible. He also addressed the subjects of racial tension and race and inequality in the United States. From the beginning of the speech, it is evident that the most effective appeal that Obama chooses to use is ethos. As a rhetoric tool, ethos is used to establish character. Ethos is an appeal to ethics, and it is a means of convincing someone of the character or credibility of the persuader (Examples of Ethos, Logos, and Pathos). In order to establish an effective ethos, the speaker must present themselves in a way that will make the audience believe what they say. A strong example of this is when he uses the quote “We the people, in order to form a more perfect union”. In referring to the U.S Constitution, this compels the audience to make a connection of significance and importance between his speech and that of the Constitution. Another way he established ethos in his speech was when he speaks of his personal and family history. By stating “I am the son of a black man from Kenya and a white woman from Kansas. I was raised with the help of a white grandfather who survived a Depression to serve in Patton's Army during World War II and a white grandmother who...

Chaos Is Come Again

...Chaos is Come Again Is it easy to turn a sane, loving man into a murderer? The famous play Othello, The Moor of Venice by William Shakespeare introduces the story of a brave black general in a predominantly white society, who has fallen in love with Desdemona, and struggles to see the true character of those around him. Iago his close friend was driven by jealousy to manipulate everyone he came in contact with. Othello is accepted by the Venetian leaders because his dedication to their military. When the story starts Othello’s strengths can be described as self-sacrificing and loving Desdemona wholeheartedly. Desdemona is quickly enveloped by this and expresses her love for Othello; “My heart’s subdued/Even to the very quality of my lord. / I saw Othello’s visage in his mind, /And to his honors and his valiant parts” (1.3.253-256). Desdemona is in love with Othello’s commitment to war and even points out that she was truly in love when she knew his thoughts. Othello is too trusting, insecure about himself, and he makes snap judgments. All of these weaknesses are used against him by Iago. “Chaos is come again” transforms Othello from a strong black warrior, loving husband, and trusting man into a cynical shell of his former self. Iago uses ethos to make Othello believe that he is trustworthy which helps him continue to make Othello doubt his wife. Othello's inclination to trust Iago is easily perceived, “The Moor already changes with my poison" (3.3.325), saying this shows that...

Summary Of Princess Diana Dies In Paris Crash

...Stories have many different meanings, characters, emotions, and also feeling, but they also need to be interesting, organized, and make sense. Every word can tell its own story and whether that story is about love, hate, relationship, joy, illness, disgrace, beliefs, grief, or even depression. The author has to have the ability to make his audience feel the emotion he or she is stressing and get his or her point across to the reader.

Scott Mccreery Five More Minutes Essay

...album it is a part of. Ethos, Pathos, Logos, and Kairos are all tactfully used to help influence the listeners. McCreery verbally constructs a beautiful picture of, what could be, essentially any person's life. Throughout the entire song, it is as if he is shaping and molding the perfect dream, prepared to fill the listener with a wistful memory. As most country music generally seems to go, this song follows the progression of life and the longing to relive favored moments. The rest of McCreery's album is closely written around this theme as well. "…Can't you give me five more minutes, Time rolls by the clock don't stop, I wish I had a few more drops, Of the good stuff, the good times, oh but they just keep on flying, Right on by like it ain't nothing, Wish I had me a pause button, Moments like those Lord knows I'd hit it, And give myself five more minutes…" He effectively uses Pathos by methodically and meticulously pulling at the listeners heart-strings. He emphasizes the fact that time is elusive and is a force that does not stop for anything. He finds the single string that inevitably unravels...

Aristotle's Rhetoric Analysis Of Ethos, Pathos And Logos

...created rhetorical appeals, he divided these so called appeals into three categories: Ethos, Pathos, and Logos. Rhetorical appeals are made to help your argument goals by helping your persuade your audience of your ideas. Ethos is to help support your argument by using credibility. In essence we typically believe the people around us that we respect. This appeal helps identify you as a person that the audience should listen to because you know lot about the topic or you have authority (Durham). Ethos can be related to the word ethics or moral principles of the writer or speaker (Writing Commons). One example of this would be, if a Basketball player is giving a speech the audience will think his Ethos is strong because he has a lot of experience (Williams). Another example of this would be the time when my father was in the marine corp. My family had to attend a rank ceremony. During this a Sergeant gave a speech in which the whole crown fell silent as he began his speech. This is an example of Ethos because the crowd found the Sergeant a highly respectable and creditable person that they need to listen too....

Hedwig and the Angry Inch

... comedy, and pathos to tell the story. I think these elements were used very well to tell the story of Hedwig’s struggles. This film has pushed in a direction ever so controversial, touching subjects as cross-dressing, gender bending, etc. It is a film that celebrates individuality. The music in this film played a big role in telling Hedwig’s story. Hedwig’s music combined moments of comedy, and emotion to deliver a side of storytelling that the audience could very well appreciate as the film unfolded Hedwig’s struggles. The music of the band combined rock and punk that delivered epic ballads like “The Origin of Love” and then more of a thrashing punk narrative like “Angry Inch” that gave the audience a detailed map of Hedwig’s life. In addition, these performances delivered such genuine emotionality that you feel like that you are riding along with Hedwig’s life struggles. And the fact that she can sing beautifully, heavy or soft, is something that adds to the effect. You can see that she gets lost in the performance that which is her insanity of life. Another element this film does well is in it humor. A scene of Hedwig performing her sets in bars where the audience consists mostly of hardcore Christian conservatives is very hilarious. As she was performing, I am anticipating a bar fight, and sure enough it happens. The humor in the film I think lives up to the task of shaping a story that can be sympathetically accepted by the audience. I sense a pathos persuasion throughout...

Young Love vs Chanel

...Melissa Butler Dr. Mark Howell English 112 2/28/2016 Young Love vs Chanel No. 5 In today’s world we see advertisements such as billboards, benches or commercials on TV and almost everywhere else we go. Our society is constantly influenced by advertising. While enthusiastic people work hard to create their masterpiece of a commercial, most people try to avoid them due to the inconvenience of them interrupting their favorite TV show. Today they have become a part of our life and the competition to produce an effective commercial is always booming. A reason for the widening of advertising is certainly the stressful expectation to produce a unique representation of a product that stands out in the market, as well as selling the product itself. TV commercials are used to attract the audience and the producers spend a lot of money and time to obtain the attention of the viewer. The most glamorous commercials I feel are certainly those of perfumes. That is why I chose to do this paper on two perfume TV commercials and examine the features that are used to produce an effective advertisement. One will be a TV commercial of 1962 that deals with the perfume “Young Love” while the other represents the “Chanel No.5 “production of 2006. These are chosen to point out the difference with regard to the use of visuals and text that are important for the development of a commercial. A TV commercial usually consists of text, visuals and sometimes incorporates music. All these features seem...
