A couple minutes into this monotone movie I started to figure out what the characters are really saying, and was surprised to see that the actors were running experiments on marijuana. When the black and white scene passed by, the main actor, Seth Rogen, is introduced showing what he does as a profession. Seth Rogen plays a process server who gives people bad news. He delivers court orders and serves them for not paying their taxes and other fees. While he works he smokes marijuana and talks about it as if it were something as normal as chewing gum.
Saccharin, or Benzoic Sulfimide (as it is known chemically), is an artificial sweetener that is used in the pink packets everyone knows so well, as well as a substitute for sugar in diet sodas. More than just a sweetener, the invention has proved to be important for those with diabetes because it travels the human digestive system without being digested. It has no caloric value, which is why it is used in diet products like Diet Coke. The story of its creation is an interesting one. It was developed by Constantin Fahlberg, a chemist.
Let’s take an example of an advertisement of Bud Light beer. Most of the Americans know that consuming alcohol is harmful for the body yet after looking at certain advertisements about alcohol everybody goes crazy about it. In Bug Light advertisement, the models are shown drinking beer, having good time, the atmosphere is enjoyable, carefree, and looking at that, it is very appealing to try the beer. They show that those models fit in the society so well and after consuming the beer everything goes well. Looking at that, one of my friend realized that drinking is the coolest thing to do.
Roles (host, guests, stand -up comedian) Chris Rock’s changes the tone of his voice I know this because he speaks in third person saying” I’m gonna get me another job(. )I’m gonna start saving some money and you are a dead man.” What we can infer from this quote is that Chris rock uses the term of S.S.P.A , he changes his role as another random man as he’s putting his point across to the audience. Purpose Chris Rock’s stand up routine “Gun control” has a huge purpose and meaning to it because in America “Gun Control” is talked about in America in the news he speaks about such a controversial topic and raises awareness to everyone in the theatre.”I think all bullets should cost five thousand
For doing what Brutus was honored for.” In this quote it Booth clearly states that in his mind during the shooting he thought he was acting as if he were Brutus in “Julius Cesar”. Booth thought his act of violence would get him honored just as Brutus was. Obviously some psychological disorder was present that he couldn’t distinguish real life from the play. Another quote which is influential towards logos is what the killer “allegedly” stated after the Aura shooting “I am the Joker” before opening fire.” This conveys the same state of mind Booth was in when he shot Lincoln. He believed he was in the Batman movie and was playing the Joker.
To me, this movie deals with the problems with time travel. The best thing I like is when old Joe can feel and know what the younger Joe is about to do. This in my mind would give an advantage to the older Joe if they battle among each other. There were a couple of times where I noticed that the audience was really into the movie. For an example, when Cid (played by Pierce Gagnon) got shot by older Joe all the audience were at the edge of their seats saying in there head ``DON’T DO IT!!``.
Anti-Smoking Ads Nathan Martz ENGL-112: Advanced Composition DeVry University Online Professor Berardi-Rogers July 17, 2011 Anti-Smoking Ads In today’s society, we are exposed to many different types of ad campaigns trying to sell their products.

Nicotine In 1996, Dr. Jeffrey Wigand, former vice president of research and development of Brown & Williamson an American company, was instrumental in bringing about new regulations in the tobacco industry. During a television interview on 60 Minutes. Dr. Wigland made the bold statement that cigarettes were the “delivery device for nicotine”. His interview shocked many as he revealed that tobacco companies knew nicotine was addictive, that carcinogenic material such as ammonia was knowingly added to cigarettes to increase nicotine delivery and increase addictiveness. Dr. Wigand also revealed that research exploring the dangers of cigarettes was suppressed and that attempts to develop a “safer” cigarette were axed.
The Great Chocolate Debate The sweet taste of chocolate has always intrigued me. As a young child I remember that we were only allowed to have chocolate on special occasions. Those occasions represented something special, like Easter, our birthday, or Valentine’s Day. Chocolate was synonymous with love and greatness….in a 1980 commercial Hersey’s referred to the candy bar as “ the great American chocolate bar” and just like in the commercial I always thought that having this treat was special (htttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2qex2cLj_M&feature=endscreen&NR=1). There has been a great debate over the years as to whether chocolate is detrimental or beneficial to one’s health.
I’m sure but in reality the deviance in movies, music, and TV shows lead to deviant acts. Illustrating deviant acts such as weed smoking only lead to people wanting to smoke more weed. In return people get looked up, so who is wining? So do the media need deviance to function? Functionalist theory
