My weekend

Hello class, how was everyone's Thanks giving? mine was OK. I'm not a big fan of turkey but I did enjoy some of the other sides.Later that evening I went to the movies and saw the Hunger Games. It was strange and entertaining at the same time, but I don't believe it is suitable for small children. Oddly enough they are the biggest fans for this film. If some of you are fans, I know your going say this is crazy but, I think Hollywood is evil and this movie symbolizes child sacrifice! Moving on, I also tried to go black Friday shopping to get some deals but the lines were too long for me. I would walk in a  store and walk out. Finally I called  a friend and we went to eat P.F Chang's. All in all I had a great holiday/weekend. 

Finishing Doc 3

Today we are finishing our doc 3. The proffesor said since tommorows Thanksgiving no one will work on their papers at home. I plan on finding some time to work on mine. Im just about finished, I need a stronger conclusion though. The topic I chose was from a analysis point of view. Theres a lot too talk about I hope I chose the most important key points to cover. The main thing Im worried about is going off topic. Since there is so many things to talk about with this subject staying focused on the main point is hard to do. Im passionate about this topic because I love everything about phych. Im interesed in how the mind works, why we think the way we do, and how easy it is for us to be manipulated and brain washed. My reader is parents my my topic is based on children. Its not only children that can be manipulated by advertising, but adults too.

Uhh ohh

Hello class, well instead of blogging about how well doc 3 is going, this post is how well its not going. In my doc 3 I chose to write about marketing to children is bad because it is manipulative. I knew a little about the subject I also figured it would be an interesting topic to research.I also knew I would have plenty information to write on. Well this topic has too much information to sort out. Basically a lot of credibility is needed and going to take over my paper. I don't want that to happen, also because it will be a lot more then 1500 words.  Well I'm going to do the assessment then Im getting back to the paper. Good luck to everyone.

Doc 3 argument and answers .

My document is on advertising to children is it marketing or manipulation? If so is that still ethical?

Marketing to children is ethically wrong and manipulative.
  

• Because it causes childhood obesity.
• Because it promotes violence, and sexuality.
• Because it objectifies children.

My argument is on how large fortune 500 hundred companies are well aware of what works for marketing tactics. All marketing is manipulation, but when it comes to children they do not have the capacity to understand like adults. Parents should monitor and limit their children's television viewing habits. They should also explain how advertising works. This will teach children to think and react accordingly when they see an advertisement. Marketing to children has negative effects because it promotes childhood obesity,sex and violence and objectifies children.

Doc 3 in the process

Hello class, Im still working on my doc 3. My topic is on advertising to children, is it marketing or manipulation. Large companies do a lot to advertise there products and spend billions every year marketing to consumers, we already know that. When is comes to young children is this etchical or are they crossing the line. I have been researching this topic and finding that it is so much more just the obvious marketing stratiges with fast food and toys. The companies present ads to children constanly through mass media, which is tv ads, internet, bill boards. My paper is still in complete. I should have it finished by this weekend I hope.   

Should middle class Americans with health insurance support ACA?

 Should middle class Americans with health insurance support ACA? Yes middle class Americans should support ACA.
 Should

•  Because it widens health care coverage to all Americans.
•  Also, because it protects existing health insurance policy holders to to keep there  coverage, insurance companies will no longer be able to drop policy holders for any reason. 
•  Because it lowers the cost of high rising health care. By requiring everyone to get health care. 
•  Because the insurance companies will no longer be able to take advantage of their policy  holders by discriminating against people due to prexisting.

 

Doc 3 starts tonight

Hello class, OK it Saturday night and you guessed it Im home going to start doc 3 finally. I gave my self enough time to decide on a topic. Im really bad at making a final decision when I'm given too many options. Enough with all my excuses, doc 3 is on. I decided to write on how the entertainment industry has negative  effects on the average young American. Any thoughts ??? 

Friend Time

Hello class, Today was a good productive day for me. I got a few things done that I needed to do. I'm still trying to choose a topic for doc 3. I have a friend over so its hard to do home work and study with company over. I don't want to be rude, so I'm just blogging quickly and putting the computer away until later. I have a lot of family and friends who are snow birds. They come down to Florida in the winter time to get out of the snow. I will be getting a lot company in the next few months I'm sure.   

I need an idea for doc 3

Hello class, my mid terms are finished in all my other classes, and now its time to start writing doc 3. For this assignment we can write about anything and the first peer review is not due until Wednesday. The only problem is I do not know what to write about. We need to find a persuasive topic that were interest us and have some knowledge on. OK sounds easy enough, where it gets tricky is it should be something that others will not most likely agree with. It will take me a whole day just to decide on a topic.Hope you all have a nice weekend. 

Somthing Im passionate about

Hello class, one thing im passionate about is occupational thearpy. I think all the parts of the medical field are important. Occupational thearpy for short OTA, is an especially important field because it helps people get back on their feet in more ways then one. They help people get back to the way they was before an accident or illness by strength and muscle building. They also learn patients how to do things for them self again. Such as simple tasks like just getting out of bed in the morning and brusing your teeth. Or putting on socks or getting a glass cup from the cabinet. Things we take for granted evryday. I think they make a differnce in peoples lives and give them hope. It sounds stupid but its true. I had an OTA come to my when I hada bad car accident. She helped me so much . That is how I learned about  the OTA field. I cant wait to graduate from the program and one day be an OTA.

No gasolina

Hello class, I hope everyone is doing well on their doc 2. I finished my last night. I stayed up all night till 5:30 working on it. I tried not to leave anything out because the more that goes in then the more persuasive it is. So I know its not due until Monday, but I wanted to finish it by last night because there's a English tutor in the AIC room. I recently found out about the English composition tutor who basically looks at English papers and helps with grammar and editing and APA style. I'm sure you all already know about this by now. If you don't then go check it out. So I drove to class today to see her with my laptop, and well I never made it to the school. While driving there I ran out of gas. In the middle lane of  Okeechobee. That was a nightmare, I had no one to push my car out of the road. I really thought it was going to get wrecked. I'm always in a hurry, today I did not even notice I was on the e mark. By the time I to the school the English tutor was still there. I was happy about that, I waited for her to finish with another student. Once she finished though it was time for her to go. So after all that, still no tutor. I was bummed out, who wouldn't want a someone else who really knows there stuff on writing papers to look at there paper. I could always use the input and help. I really need / want a good grade on my doc 2 !

Obama cares, arent you glad.

Hello class, ok so with this paper I chose to be for Obama care. To be against it is a whole different ball game. Anything I do I don't like to do it half way. Its all or nothing. So if I would have chosen to write against Obama care it would be way over 1200 hundred words. Because there are to many cons about it. Way to many important details to cover. Plus I'm a bit of a conspiracy theorist and I don't want that to come through in my paper. I would have based this act as unconstitutional and un American. What else do you call taking away freedom and rights to choose. Never has the government forced the American people to purchase something. I don't know anymore, what's next one euro, one religion. This whole act is built on the joining the younger people contributing to the health care pool, to compensate others who use health insurance. We all know that by now. Some of you may know how I feel about this act by now, but in my paper I have chosen to write for it just because there is way less areas to cover. Actually you really cant find anything that great about it. You can find a ton of  sources saying how bad it is for America! Well my paper is finished for now. I'm sure I will be revising and editing when I receive it back next week. I'm so glad  its finished because this was a difficult subject to write on. There is so many pros and cons involved. You just don't know what or who to believe. I guess we will wait and see soon enough. Because this is happening whether we like it or not, because Obama cares.

Tech problems for doc 2.

Hello class, I finally got started on my doc 2 yesterday. The creative writing was going well I even got my thesis statment down. About 2:00 am all of the sudden I got knocked off line and my computer screen had an error mesg saying this device cant be reconized. I tried to call comcast for tech support but they were closed of course. So today I need to call and see whats going on. My computer has been running really slow latly especially youtube. But ok back on doc2, I have decided to write my paper for supporting Obama care. Its easy to see what is bad about it ,but I have also found goodthings as well. Maybe the good will out way the bad and it could work out after all. This system does work for others around the country. The thing is we will all find out sooner then later. We will have to except it like it or not. Thats life try to roll with the punches and make the best of it. Whats that saying whene life hands you lemons you throw them at someone....just jokn. This has been by far the hardest doc I have ever created. I first needed to understand the bill somwhat, which took tons of rsearch and still counting. Then try to explain it from my point of veiw.

Everything

Hello class, I just finished my assessment for class. This one was a little harder then the usual. More  reading and writing and less multiple choice questions. Im glad that's off my head. Things have been so hectic now that were in week five of this semester. Im actually thinking about dropping my A/ P class, I will get a (W) which is for withdrawal. I have never dropped a class I feel like a failure . Its not that I cant pass the class, its Im only focused on that certain class because its sooo much. So Im lacking in my other classes. Whats the point if my over grade average is going lower and lower. I thing I bit off more then I can Handel. Still debating not sure if Im going to drop it or not if I do I can focus on my other classes and retake A/P the next semester. Its just going to set me back from graduating a bit. I read something recently that said '' don't try to rush your way out of school your there to learn, Its not a race''. So since A/P moves so fast no Im not really learning anything its more like memorizing quickly and moving on to the next chapter.

Doc 2 on Obama care still researching.

Hello class, Im still doing my research on Obama care. Not sure yet if  Im for it or against it. This has to be one of the most controversial issue out. Yes its a great thing everyone should have health care. Americans will be more healthier because even if you have a little cold you will not hesitate to go see the doctor. As before you would  first just try to fight it off with maybe an over the counter medicine and hope to get better. I know that's what I would do.With not even a simple copay this will not be an issue anymore. So in a sense it is good to be prepared  no one can predict if and when they will need medical attention. Also its not right that people with insurance pay for those who don't have insurance. The insured rates go up to compensate for those who cannot afford medical care. I don't have insurance, but I certainly don't expect someone else to pay for me. So I guess just like car insurance we hope we never need it but its there if we do. Its similar to  car insurance ,being that its mandatory. Thing is I knew before I bought my car I was going to need car insurance, so I had a choice. This law is basically saying you live in America you buy health insurance. This is the first time the government ever made the American people buy something. It does feel like freedom to me. Not to mention this will only raise the debt this country already owes.  I would like to agree with this act, but don't really know enough about it yet to say. I do know that this country is divided on this decision, but I guess it does not matter now , its the law. It has been repealed 41 times and its still in full effect.  If anyone reads my blogs comment me I would like the feedback and to hear others point of view. wow this was a long post, if your still  here reading this  thanks.
