...by their parents, who don’t understand the children’s needs. This is reflected in the story “Just like that” by Michael Richards, in which a young boy is taken into the bush to shoot kangaroos, by a man who wants to teach him what it takes to grow up to become a man. Does the boy like to shoot kangaroos, if not; why? Why does the man say: “Don’t walk behind me”? What happens in the end of the story? The narrator is third person and is omniscient. The language is simple and informal because it includes dialogues and repetition of dialogues. The atmosphere is gloomy, because the man does not trust the boy. It is exciting. The story is told in chronological order. The boy is young and inexperienced. It is the first time, he is in the bush to shoot kangaroos. He is brought by a man, who seems to be his father. To him the son cannot become a man, until he knows how to handle a rifle. Shooting kangaroos is the method the father uses to turn the son into a man. The boy is looking for a role model, who he finds in his father. But to pass his father’s test of manhood, he needs to shoot kangaroos. But even though the father is the boy’s role model, the boy finds him unsympathetic because he shoots the defenseless kangaroos. The son’s conscience plays a big role in this story. He does not like to shoot the kangaroos. His father pushes him by saying things as: “If you can’t do it now you never will.” (Page 1, line 6). The son interprets it as growing up and being able to live up...

...from boy to man. A boy and a man drive out to the wild to shoot some kangaroo, the boy hopes that shooting a kangaroo would make him a man, so he shoots more than 5 of them, but the boy does not want to shoot kangaroos. But he has to so he can pass the man’s test of manhood. He develops throughout the text and becomes a “man” Death is new to the boy, who is surprised by how easy it seemed when the man killed the first Kangaroos, it was exactly like the man had told him ”dead just like that” (p.1 l.1). So when the days starts are the boy immature. “The soft hair on his legs where soon matted and tangled” (p.25 1. 4). He has soft hair on his legs, and therefore are the boy young. The boy dies. “Suddenly the boy felt very calm. His eyes saw his hands lift the rifle. He felt nothing. He felt as if he were dead.” (p.29 l.18). The boy does not die, but has become a real man. When he has shot his first kangaroo he does not feel very good, he cannot even remember pulling the trigger” …He was empty as if his heart and guts had been sucked out of the barrel of his gun” (p.2 l.29-30). He is disappointed ”he had thought that somehow this would make him a man- but it had made no difference at all.” To him killing the kangaroo has been pointless, it did not make him a man. “The boy was surprised to find himself with an empty gun in his hands” (p.3 l. 28-29), again he does not know exactly what has happened, every time he shoots a kangaroo, it is like he does not do it himself. But he...

...beginning wrestlers who are just learning the basic penetration step. This drill is designed to help wrestlers focus on changing their level as they take their shot. If you are not familiar with the penetration step, check out How to Shoot in Wrestling. Grab a partner and you’re ready to go. Getting set: One wrestler stands with his legs slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, while the other wrestler starts facing him, in his stance, ready to shoot. There should be enough room to fit the shooting wrestler’s body as he goes through, so adjust your stance accordingly. Larger wrestlers may have trouble shooting though their partners’ legs; in this case, the wrestler should place one foot against a wall, allowing his partner much more room in which to perform the drill. Go!: On a coach’s command, the wrestler in his stance takes a shot in between his partner’s legs, focusing on changing levels and taking a deep step. Beginning wrestlers will have a tendency to shuffle through their partner’s legs on their knees, because this is the easiest route. Don’t get into this habit. Try to get through your partner’s legs using one big step. This is tricky at first, but in time it will seem effortless. It may help to place your hands on the mat as your shoot through, as well. Stand & repeat: Once you get through your partner’s legs, step up and face him (you should be looking at his back). Take another shot back through your partner’s legs and stand up in front of him. Continue this process...

...Shoot to Kill Order Warren Cabanlit National University FERGUSON, Mo. — The city of St. Louis — and the nation — are deeply divided over whether a police officer who killed an unarmed black teenager in Ferguson, Mo., should be charged with a crime. The law that determines when police can use deadly force generally gives officers considerable leeway in making that split-second decision about whether they need to kill to save themselves or others. Police officers are also automatically authorized, based on training in most states, including Missouri, to use deadly force if a suspect tries to grab the officer’s gun. Wilson has told investigators that Brown tried to get his gun during a scuffle in which Brown was reaching into Wilson’s patrol car. Law enforcement experts say the legal standard, established by two Supreme Court rulings from the 1980s, has made it hard for prosecutors to obtain convictions in cases of alleged use of excessive force. Experts say the high court rulings and Officer Darren Wilson’s account give investigators several reasons to find Wilson justified in shooting to kill 18-year-old Michael Brown. A teenager in Washington, D.C. named Michael Brown was shot dead after he allegedly flashed a knife to the police officers assigned in the area near Ferguson, causing his death (Flatow, 2014). Witnesses, however, tell that Brown was unarmed, and the police officers ruthlessly shot him six times on a Tuesday afternoon. Tensions and criticisms arose since...

...by Nick Woodman in 2002. He didn't set out to change the market for digital video filmmaking. He just wanted to shoot better quality surfing photos. Woodman is a wave rider, racecar driver, mountain biker, and snowboarder. He lives the lifestyle his indestructible cameras capture. While on a break, after his game promotion company Fun Bug failed, in Southeast Asia on a surf trip, he used a 35mm camera attached to the palm of his hand by a rubber band to try and capture his surfing activities on film. “Seeing those amateur photographers like him, who wanted to capture quality action photos of their activities, had difficulties because either they could not get close enough to the action or were unable to purchase quality equipment at affordable prices, his trip became his inspiration to found “GoPro”. He needed a way to attach the camera to the body for better shots while surfing. After realizing that the strap would eventually fail and the cameras would get wet or break, Nick realized that his company should be a camera company, not just a strap and accessories. He raised the capital for GoPro by selling sea shells and beads while he was in Asia. He bought shells and beads for $1.60 in Indonesia and sell them for $20 while living on in his VW bus on the coast. His family also loaned him $35,000 to help with the start-up. The first cameras where point and shoot cameras mounted on the wrist and have since evolved into digital cameras with Wi-Fi capabilities, cases that that...

...source analysis paper, I will be discussing the life of Angela Davis as an activist for civil rights and the sentencing of her involvement with a shoot-out. I found this woman on the LIFE Magazine Archives, “Winners and Losers”, Up, down and around the dice roll for ’72 on page 56. I will give a brief background on her life, then follow it with a secondary source, which comes from several primary sources to create an overview of a situation, and it tells us how the shoot-out happened. I will then analyze a primary source, which gives information by the person themselves or from a source in that time, where Davis is in an interview explaining her thoughts through the period of the shootout and the sentencing after it. The LIFE Magazine Archive, it gives us a small insight on Davis’ life as one of the “Ten Most Wanted”, for the shoot-out in 1970, in Marin County, California, courthouse. Davis, a black activist, Communist, and philosophy instructor, was imprisoned for “the part she allegedly played” (pg.56) in the shootout, for fifteen months. Finally, after...

...Why did he shoot the elephant? There are many different reasons as to why George Orwell chose to shoot the Elephant in the short story, ”Shooting an Elephant”. In the following essay, there will be a wide and deep response of why George Orwell chose to shoot the elephant in the end. The first and primary reason for George Orwell shooting the elephant is simply Orwell being afraid. He was originally not intending to shoot the elephant; he merely brought the rifle for his own protection. “I had no intention of shooting the elephant – I had merely sent for the rifle to defend myself if necessary – and it is always unnerving to have a crowd following you. I marched down the hill, looking and feeling a fool, with the rifle over my shoulder and an ever-growing army of people jostling at my heels” . This quote first of all shows that Orwell actually did not intend the shooting of the elephant. It also shows the pressure he is being held upon by the Burmese crowd. It might seem a bit strange that Orwell feels pressured, as he is the superior and the Burmese is the inferior, but the thing is, Orwell is pressured because he is in fact the one without power in this situation. He is being laughed at and ridiculed buy the locals, which of course touches his emotions and he is greatly outnumbered by the thousand man crowd. So in reality a part of the cause of George Orwell shooting the elephant is social motives. Being pressured by the Burmese is not his only motive; Orwell also wants to...

...How to shoot some adrenaline into your soul Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. (Heb 12:2-3 KJV) What do you do when you get tired in the race of life? What do you do when all God has promised seems so far away from realization. What do you do when all you have are words of prophecies, and you are wondering when they will come to pass? What do you do when you notice that doubt is beginning to creep in? Well the answer is right here. Looking unto Jesus, the author and the finisher of our faith… That word, ‘looking’ means to ‘consider attentively’. He is the author! That means your life is like a book. Jesus is the author of your life. It is not time to give up because you might justy be in the second or third chapter. Jesus wrote the story of your life. Jesus is not just the author but He is also the finisher. The completer! He will complete the story of your life and it is going to be sweet. How do I know? I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out--plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for. (Jer 29:11 MSG) When you are getting tired, simply consider Him. Consider Jesus who paid a debt He did not owe because we owed a debt we could...
