/in /by adminAccording to Lee Horsely in The Noir Thriller, “the hard-boiled tradition so inextricably bound up with noir is in part defined by the gritty realism of its style, its faithful representation of the contemporary life and its hard-bitten response to socio-political corruption …. (H)owever, both literary and cinematic noir also have strong affinities with the literature of fantasy and romance, blending realistic representation with non-realistic and expressionist elements that are heightened, distorted, stylized and excessive … Indeed, it is often this pull towards excess which gives noir its unsettling power, its savage intensity and its haunting sense of irreversible fate…†(qtd. in Bukoski).
Which key noir elements does Edgar G. Ulmer employ in his film Detour to develop suspense and intrigue? In your response be certain to define a noir-themed story. Consider the discussion of one or more of the following elements, as they typify a classic noir: atmosphere, cinematography, music, characterization, theme and plot. Develop a strongly supported discussion of this topic in a 1,200-word essay.
Please include at least two direct quotations from **the two assigned readings in support of your argument and at least four direct quotations from Ulmer’s Detour.

Reflect on how your understanding of religion has changed over the course of the semester. What are some of your biggest takeaways? Which of the readings (if any) struck you the most?2) In our final unit, we’ve looked at the problem of religious freedom. Using material from any point in the semester, explain why religious freedom is a problem (or, at least, a potential problem.) You could, for example, explain the vagaries of the “invented” religions we discussed (the science fiction religions, anti-religion religions). You could show how most Western conceptions of religious freedom center “belief” and, therefore, tend to not protect practice-centered traditions that well (e.g. Vodou, SanterÃa, or a tradition that you grew up in or are more familiar with). You could also explain how governments are regularly put in a position of defining “religion” even as they are defending the anti-establishment of religion. Finally, you could look at the case of Japan and how idiosyncrasies in their understanding of “religion,” “secular,” and “superstition” demonstrate the difficulty or impossibility of a universal conception of religious freedom.

/in /by adminI’ve prepared an abstract and two single spaced pages into the document; however, I’m sick. I need someone who isn’t afraid to write uncomfortable realities on paper. The abstract is included below:Often times there is the belief but daunting misconception that African American service members are exempt from the microaggressions that their civilian counterparts experience daily. There is also a misconception that serving our country exempts you from the rugged nature of the world around us. While the stride of equality seems obvious from someone lacking lived experiences, reality tells a story of how the most common exchange between service members and civilians, “thank you for your service,†Is respect and grace that African American service members wouldn’t otherwise receive as civilians (Janda, 2001). This respect is given because they’ve chosen to die for a country that sees them as superhuman while regarded as subhuman. The truth is, the microaggressions experienced is just like the uniforms they wear, camouflaged. This conclusion rests on a review of institutional analyses in three areas to which researchers have paid close attention: appearance standards, officer promotion rates, and the administration of military justice (Burk & Espinoza, 2012).
