~Loose Ends In My Mind~: Racing for the Right Name
http://kk-pennpaper.blogspot.com/2008/03/racing-for-right-name.html
Thursday, March 6, 2008. Racing for the Right Name. The article “From African to African American” written by Simitherman describes how difficult it is to name a race. It seems to me that choosing a name for a race would be quite simple. An important figure of that race denotes a “group name” and moves on. Our history, however, shows that it is much more complicated than this. It is through the same respect that you address a person by their appropriate ethnic title. For example my friend is Peruvian...

The Desk of the Something. Friday, April 18, 2008. Ok, I have not began working on Essay #3 yet other than getting all the sources reading through each one and working on summing all the sources up.

Alicia's English 102 Blog: This Means That and That Means This
http://ahudenglish102.blogspot.com/2008/03/this-means-that-and-that-means-this.html
Friday, March 7, 2008. This Means That and That Means This. We recently did a reading from our About Language book on the word "macho". Before reading that, I had never viewed that word as an insult or as a derogatory description. To me, macho is a strong, well-built man who can handle anything. In the article "macho" (to Americans) means basically a guy who is a pig. "Macho" is not the only word that is easily interpreted. So who really knows what "I'm down with being bad and macho" means?

Thursday, February 28, 2008. I" Before "e" Except After "c". Everyone remembers the "i" before "e" except after "c" rule. Except, is it always true? No, what about words like science or society? What about prescient or conscience? Accepting and learning grammar is not only about the intake of the knowledge but also about the output of that knowledge. How is the information presented? Does it seem interesting? It is very easy for someone to shut out something that is completely boring and uninteresting.

Tuesday, April 22, 2008. Reaction to Classmate's Presentations. I felt like almost half the class presented on working in the medical field. There seemed to be a reoccurring theme among each of the presentations as well: doctors and nurses need to strive to build a bond with their patients. Considering this is what my presentation was on, it was easy for me to relate to and understand. Posted by Yours Truly. Tuesday, April 15, 2008. Most individuals who suffer from low health literacy are embarrassed of ...

Alicia's English 102 Blog: Language in Nursing
http://ahudenglish102.blogspot.com/2008/04/according-to-oxford-english-dictionary.html
Tuesday, April 15, 2008. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, a nurse is a person who or thing which nurtures or cares for others. For as long as nurses have existed, their goal has been to reach out to those who need assistance. Nurses have a specific way of relating to the patients that have ailments. It is vital that nurses understand how to express information in a way that people with low health literacy, deaf people, and those from other parts of the world can understand.

Thursday, January 31, 2008. Exercising the Ethnographic Perspective. Pearl to be inducted into National Jewish Sports Hall of Fame. In regards to the cultural issues, the article is very brief and vague. It is evident that being accepted into a Jewish hall of fame is a cultural matter because of religion. It would have been beneficial to the readers, as well as the overall article, if the reporter would have dug deeper into this subject. Who are some influential people in this hall of fame? Interviewing ...
