Watch Things In Different Perspectives

Storified by Lucky · Mon, Nov 24 2014 17:43:13

Paz is a very interesting fellow. Intelligent and a prodogy at writing. He is very artsy and deep about everything he says. The biography also mentions that he is very unified with the world and everything in it. Most of Paz's themes are related to the false and real reality which is different to other poets. He is also unifed and has a different thought process. He never thinks about the 2 side of the coin, but the same coin that it is on.
Paz talks about the power of words through poetry. Poetry is very strong since they can be used to convince, inspire, help others, and express feeling. Paz talks about this because his poems has changed people's opinions; that poetry is not just a junble of words, but a form of power, something that is paradoxical, and life. Paz also talks about the universal human condition, that "all men are going to die".
Words are very powerful, more powerful than weapons or human destruction. Poetry that Paz created called "Between What I See and What I Say" tells us that words, are not only words, but that poems are an "act". That is what Paz is trying to tell us. Words can be used in many different ways and it is shown through this poem. It is something that we cannot interpret well, something that is between what yousee and what you say.

Braid is a platform game in a painterly style where you manipulate the flow of time to solve puzzles. The avatar Tim has to face different quests and puzzle challenges in order to save his princess. Some of the themes we discussed in class such as spatial movement, time manipulation and narrative themes are played and used to tell the story in Braid. In each world, you have a different power to affect the way time behaves, and it is time's strangeness that creates the puzzles. The time behaviors include: the ability to rewind, objects that are immune to being rewound, time that is tied to space, parallel realities, time dilation, and perhaps more.

Every puzzle in braid is unique!!!! Each stage contains puzzle pieces that must be collected to create jigsaw puzzles that tell the story, and to unlock the last stage.
What is even more unique about the game is the ability to read a story in different ways while playing the game. Each world has its own time-based game mechanics. You can read the story from left to right or right to left.
Braid, like all platform style games have scrolling spatial movements as one of its main themes. Similar to a well known platform game called Mario.
The Oasis in Ready Player One and Braid are similar when it comes down to the "easter egg" hunt. Although in Braid the easter eggs are stars, the moral of the story stays the same. You have to find these hidden pieces throughout the game as much as Wade had to complete the hunt for Halliday's Easter egg in Ready Player One.

What really separates Braid from other platform games?

Gratitude is one of the simplest ways to be positive. Showing appreciation for even the smallest things in your life can be transformational.

Ray Rice was a running back for the Baltimore Ravens when him and his wife got in a fight in an elevator and he knocked her out. His career ended, facing prison, got fined, and lost his sponsorship with Nike. Adrain Peterson, also a running back but for the Minnesota Vikings was accused for hitting his son with a switch, arrested for child abused, suspended from his current team the Minnesota Vikings, and lost his sponsorship with Nike. Lastly, Hope Solo was charged for punching her cousin and sister, but she still plays for her pro and national team and still retains her Nike sponsorship.
Even to this day people still admire Hope Solo because she's a good soccer player. Weather or not the media ruined her face, we the people, still build this "mask" for her that acts as coverup like we can just forget that she punched her cousin and and sister, her own family members.
If you take a look at her profile on facebook you'll notice all these normal pictures of an athlete that has Nike and her national and pro team posted on it. Not once while scrolling will you see anything that has to do with her incident with her couisn and sister. Also, if you click on her 'About' section under her name, if you read what's it says not a single word even tries to talk about the situation.
Star Goalkeeper Hope Solo Arrested for Assault · abcnews
Hope assaulted her cousin and her sister because they were having some family problems but when they bring the issue to the media for everyone to be aware of it, but her attorney says, "She is not guilty of any crime. Our investigation reveals that Hope was assaulted and injured during this unfortunate incident." Later in the video they reveal that Hope's husband Jeremey assaulted Hope a day before their wedding and went to prison but never got charged.
After everything she's been through, we still want her as a represtative for our national and pro team, for what? She's a girl? She's good? Or maybe she portrays a good image? And why does Nike still have her as their representative? Whatever the reason is, it's still wrong. Domestic violence is a horrible thing and we should have the same consquences like Ray Rice and Adrian Peterson.
Ray Rice started in the NFL in 2008-2013, he was the all-time leading running back for the Baltimore Ravens. His stats were outstanding 6,180 yards, 4.3 yards average for every carry, 37 touchdowns, and 369 records for getting the ball. Played college football for the Rutgers when drafter in 2008.
Right when the elevator closes Ray Rice's wife comes at him and right when she gets close enough, he strikes knocking her out cold on the floor. What you don't see here in the GIF is that before he punches her they were already fighting and at that moment she started to hit Ray first which then lead to the knockout punch.
After he knocks her out he then drags her out of the elevator and doesn't even try to help or maybe get some water to wake her up. A few moments a guy comes out from the right and what we can all assume is that he asked him what happend and maybe if he could get some help for her. This went viral and it all went downhill from from here.
When confronted the NFL if they ever recieved the video of Ray Rice hitting his wife, they denied. Roger Goodell commissioner for the NFL claimed he never got the video and told a story that made everyone believe his story. After the FBI did some investigating it they found that the NFL did get the video but they chose to ignore it. As well as the Baltimore Raves, once they were guilty for lying about the video they cut Ray Rice from their team before his three-year contract ended.
Compare to Hope Solo's facebook page with people still admiring her and with pictures and videos of her training with her team and with her sponsorship with Nike, Ray Rice has nothing left on his after the incident in the elevator. On his bio it talks about his high school, college, and NFL career in football but also talks about the knockout blow his wife took and that he has been punished for it.
