I was wrapped in cassette tapes while creating this poster. With the choosing of quotes, and the random ideas flowing through my head, this was the result. The following quote, “[t]his one tape had all these memories and feelings and great joy and sadness,” (Part 2, Page 62) from The Perks of Being a Wallflower, by Stephen Chbosky, was chosen due to the meaning hidden within. The overall meaning to this quote is that this tape is the thing that makes Charlie, the protagonist, feel real. Firstly
An audio Cassette also known as Music cassette (MC) uses a magnetic tape recording format to record audio. Audio cassettes come in two forms, either pre-recorded or blank and empty. The word cassette is a French word, which itself means a little box, rectangular in shape. A famous company known as Phillips was the first one to come up with the music cassette idea, but as time passed, its huge mass production was done all over the world. In order to listen to the music stored in these cassettes, one
requirement that the voltage source may not exceed 9 volts (standard layout would dictate a 7.2 voltage source). The course layout, dubbed a maze, is a simple square enclosure with 2 barriers protruding from the near and far rails. Black and white tape is laid out inside suggested a course for robots to take or for optic sensors to follow. The interior walls create the challenge while the rest of the course remains very limitless in navigation. Time and accuracy must be taken in consideration, as
of the protected beach and the unprotected beach. At each of the two locations we measured the angle of the beach and the depth of the sand. To start our beach survey we laid out measuring tape from the sea to the cliff (or 30 meters out) on the unprotected beach but on the protected beach the tape went from the sea wall to 30 meters out. We used survey poles - 3 meters apart - making sure they were vertical. At each survey pole we took a trowel and measured the depth of the beach. We did
unrecorded or unnoticed. Limitations Observing can be obtrusive and subjects may alter their behaviour due to the presence of an observer. Co operation of users is vital and so the interpersonal skills of the observer are important. Notes and video tape need to be analyzed by the note-taker which can be time consuming and prevents the task being split up for analysis by a number of people. If events or behaviours which occur at unpredictable intervals are of interest, this kind of observation can
Morality of CCTV Closed-circuit television is widely used in England as a deterrent to crime. It is also used sparingly in Scotland, Times Square, and Atlantic City. The idea is to capture crimes or images of potential criminals on video surveillance tape so that the criminal can be identified. The dilemma of this practice comes from the moral conflict it creates. Do the civil liberties and privacy issues that are taken away justify the protection and safety that CCTV provides?

religious figures or events in the time period discussed. However other events such as kingship and lineage tracing are also prominent in the piece. Due to being a monk himself, Bede is primarily focused on religious issues and often records events with a bias favoring the Christian perspective. Bede scolds non-Christians (as is the case with Eadbald) and incorporates religious, non-provable statements as a means of furthering his Christian agenda (he states that Eadbald was possessed by demons and accuses
Moreover, after living in the fake world adults created for a long time, teenagers become indifferent about everything. In the music video, teenagers were all expressionless after they just rushed into the room to listen to the singer’s words. These expressionless faces clearly expose the bad influences of those oppressions on teenagers. Under the oppression, teenagers do not have their own emotions and characteristics.

jurors/judges/prosecutors/defense attorney must consider the evidence, facts and testimony and set aside bias and live in good faith. However, there will be times where decisions will be made as well as errors, but as long as they/we have done our best and take responsibility, then that is all we can do.

Bias Article News articles may portray information that is not true to make it sound more interesting. The writer usually has an opinion or perspective that he/she want to advance and get across to their readers, but wants to make that opinion and perspective sound like it's a fact. This is a way to increase the audience for an article. It also may be ways for the writer to get out rumours and gossip.

Media Bias and Concentration After witnessing a hotly contested election and the massive amounts of campaigning done by both parties in effort to inform the public and reach as many voters as possible, one question still remains poignant: Where do we get our information? The myriad landscape that is the media today, can be accessed from almost anywhere, and has, in many ways, entrenched itself in American culture, replacing what used to be standard outlets of information. Television and print news
Every day journalists face the stereotype of being ruthless, untrustworthy, and down right wrong. However, what people don't realize is that in the beginning this was not the case and even in today's society journalists are making a solid effort to fight that stereotype that so many bad journalists have left. One of the ways that journalists are trying to fight back is through instituting the nine elements of journalism: journalism's first obligation is to the truth, its first loyalty is to citizens
states, “although a research might pretend to be neutral and unbiased in presenting his findings and conclusions, personal biases can creep into a finished product” (Johnston 2005, 10-11).

Day One Objective 1 (Explaining & Understanding): Students will review the definitions of bias and point of view. Students will be taught how to determine bias and point of view (word choice). Summary of Lesson 1: Class will begin with students listening to the song “In the Living Years” and be asked to underline words that make them feel something. I will use this as my hook into our unit. Students will be given a brief overview of the unit and then we will move into the demonstration portion
sources covering Obamacare use either an objective diction aimed to inform the audience, or a diction meant to influence the reader’s interpretation; the audience bears the responsibility of identifying whether or not the article’s diction shows a bias and to recognize the concrete coverage of the text. Milbank explains the issues and The United Nation’s investigation of the Obamacare repeal, using ¨loaded¨ words, otherwise known as persuasive diction, in order to appeal to their liberal audience
Most people have biases, however some people are more bias than others, but people have their own biases whether they are aware or not. People prefer to confirm why they are right and they want to convince others by providing reasoning and evidences. For instance, researchers often use confirmation biases when they began an experiment. More simply, researchers often do studies on topics they have some background information on, because they want to confirm their beliefs. According to Raymond S. Nickerson
Bias Influences the Audience in Chinua Achebe and Ridley Scott's Writing Chinua Achebe and Ridley Scott reflect different cultural eras and use bias to influence their audience onto their side.

player ). Generally, in recording, the sound waves impinge on a microphone and are converted into an electrical signal that is recorded by a tape recorder. The tape can be edited if desired. When a commercial phonograph record is to be made, a disk of soft acetate composition coated on an aluminum base, called an original, is placed on a rotating turntable. The tape is played back and controls a stylus that cuts a spiral groove starting from the outer edge and moving to the inner edge of the original
