Pacific Heights

In the movie, “Pacific Heights” by John Schlesinger, the landlords are given three signs of potential problems with their tenant. The first sign was when the Carter Hayes, Michael Keaton, lies to the landlord about meeting his wife. The landlord asks his wife later about Cater Hayes meeting here and she responds very objectively no. Why would Carter lie is the first question. I think it was to give the landlord some comfort about who he is because if his wife had no problem with him would should he. The second sign would have to the refusal to fill out the application. This document is used to make he would pass a simple background check which would include a credit check. Carter refuses and hands the landlord a slip of references for him to contact later. All of the contacts except one come back false. The only contact that he was able to talk to was his old landlord which told him he was a great tenant and was very adamant about getting Carter’s address. If that was the only contact that I could speak too this to me would have thrown up some flags. Later in the movie Carter shows up to the apt and has already started getting comfortable with is stuff scattered throughout the place. The landlord shows up and see’s him already inside without prior meeting or key to enter. I would have thrown the man out that instance for breaking and entering and trespassing on private property. In conclusion if the landlord would have stuck by the background checks and legal documentation this situation could have never taken place. Instead, the landlord has to hire an attorney and fight in court to have the tenant removed. So far, the tenant can‘t even be served because he is never available.

My own Hammer Doll

If I could have my own doll to wack at it would be my ex fiancee. I would wake up with the hammer still in my hand ready to wack away. The women was the biggest waste of time and money. I would have designed her in the latest fashion,and with a credit card with my name on it in her back pocket because that was really the only two things that mattered to her.

Greed is good

Creed is good. When it comes to are world today, we are driven primarily by greed. Creed is what drives us to be better at any aspect of life. My creed for knowledge has driven me to attend college to further expand my knowledge of audio engineering. I the movie “Wall Street” The main charcter sells personal property “all property other than real property, such as automobiles, clothing, computers, and so on.” Essentials of Buisness Law, by Anthony L. Liuzzo, liquidating the airline of all their planes and land to make a profit for the share holders. The company was in dying need of either new management or selling to company. The greed in the man, made him decide the fastest and safest way to make money with this company was to liquidate it. Creed is what makes are country strive to be better and more powerful than any other country in the world. Sometimes a companies greed will end be costly. As for Microsoft who is going to have to sell of their existing goods “goods that physically exist and are owned by the seller at the time of sale”, Essentials Of Business Law, by Anthony L. Liuzzo, because, they are not making any profit . Some examples are the zune, the Microsoft watch and , Xbox 360. Creed Is sometimes bad because of the way are economy is today. People were taking money that they can’t pay back and are now asking the government for help. All in all, though if it wasn’t for creed we would be living in a third world country like Afganistan. I was deployed their for six months and got to walk around the city that was connected to the base. Those people have nothing, not even a chair to sit on. People die left and right from simple sicknesses. They have to drive to make things better. They are not greedy people and are paying for it. They have to drive to make things better.

Myspace Suicide

“Maybe she did not intend for the girl to kill herself but she did however intend to do the girl harm” Anchor Drive Productions

I agree with him completely. These women had to have had full knowledge of what her actions were going to result hurting this young girl. For that reason I believe she should be punished for contributing to the young women’s death.

“I felt that she was responsible for pushing this young girl over the edge. Whether she knew it or not this girl suffered from severe depression. With further research could this woman also be charged with even more including negligence?” designguru84

To me it’s really hard to blame these women entirely. I know allot of people who make fun or say hurtful things to each other on MySpace. You really can’t say this woman is to blame. I believe the parents should have maybe taken this girl to counseling or just sat her down once and awhile and had a heart to heart. I mean if they just took to sea world or something she could still be alive today.

“Why didn’t the mother accused of driving Megan to her death just leave it alone? Whatever happened to the good ole days when we all grew up dealing with things person to person? Mano y mano” Flip Beats Productions

I agree why can’t people talk to one another or just learn to deal with their problems. It seems now a day’s people always look for the easy way out. The girl should have talk to her mother or better yet the mom should have seen the signs of her suicide. We just don’t have good old fashion family ties anymore.

“I couldn't really decide a suitable punishment for this woman, because I really can't describe fully the matter at hand, and I was not there to witness what has happened, what has been said, and what lead the thirteen year old girl to kill herself. These are my feelings on this case.” BarnhurstDesigns

I can’t either. This is the first of its case and it’s really hard to say if posting rude things on the internet can be an accessory to murder. I believe she contributed to it but so did the fact she didn’t have milk with her cereal. I mean if we go down this road we could lose are freedom of speech on the internet. I’m not saying what the women did was right at all but just we should but all the blame on this one woman. Maybe we should just take away all her privileges with the internet and have strict probation for her that limits her to no contact with minors not even her kids.
