They can be found in Tab.1: The only ratio we were familiar with was the one proposed by the assignment (height : arm span = 1 : 1), so we checked it.

INTRODUCTION

Many countries are faced with unemployment and its subsequent effects on its economy. When the rates of unemployment become high, the governments are pushed to shoulder the cost of many social services since their citizens are incapable of paying for them. More importantly, a high unemployment rate due the lowered demands and high interest can influence the exchange rate. The exchange rate is among the determinants of a country’s economic stability and influences the country’s trade with the global market. As such, unemployment should be lowered through fiscal and monetary policies that can stabilize a lower exchange ...

Final Essay: Robert Bresson’s Dictum & Film Analysis of “A Man Escaped”

Introduction The modern film-viewer may anticipate feeling abashed, or risk feeling bored when scrutinizing an old, black-and-white movie that lacks an action package. However, Robert Bresson’s film made in 1956, A Man Escaped, offers a compelling example of filmmaking skills which captivate the attention of its audience. One of Director Robert Bresson’s favorite dictums asserts that “What is for the eye must not duplicate what is for the ear” (“Notes on Sound”). Control of narrative space, and command of sound perspective strategies in the film demonstrate an exercise of the filmmaker’s philosophy. The film analysis herein, ...

Rwanda is not only an African country with panoramic hills and kind laughing people.

In the world of Jane Austen adaptations, Joe Wright’s 2005 film Pride and Prejudice proves itself incredibly innovative in its approach. Prior attempts at adapting Austen works, including Pride, focus on a clean-cut, ornate and incredibly stately world of Victorian England, with upper-class characters spending the entire film in eloquent settings and speaking in decidedly unapproachable manners. Wright, along with screenwriter Deborah Moggach, eschew this aesthetic in order to provide their adaptation of Pride and Prejudice with a more casual, approachable take on the classic Jane Austen romance, complete with a greater emphasis on naturalism, grit and approachability. ...

My First Kiss

Everyone dreams of their first kiss and what it would be like, often practicing in the mirror or on our hand, longing for someone else’s sweet lips to touch our own and wonder what it would feel like when it happened.

Part One

When I play tennis, my body moves with agility and balance on the court. It is worth noting that tennis is not merely an upper-body sport aimed at hitting the ball back over the net. Since a sharp reaction to a ball is required, my feet never stop moving. In tennis, the majority of movements are side to side, and apparently, motor skills are vital. By the way, shoulders do not tilt on volleys and groundstrokes, as the racquet arm maintains balance. A combination of horizontal and vertical movements takes place during the tennis serve, whereas rather smaller joint ...
