Read the excerpt from the play The King of Sharks:

Scene 3

Young man with a birthmark in the shape of shark teeth on his back is hiding behind some trees, listening to fishermen talk.

Narrator: The shark prince grew up. He became a strong young man who looked just like the other young men of the village, except for the strange birthmark on his back.

Fisherman 1: I hear there is good fishing out at the cove. I will head there tomorrow morning at first light.

Fisherman 2: I will join you! Be sure you don't mention where you are going to anyone else. It will mean more fish for us!

Fisherman 1: I won't tell a soul. You must have said something last time. There were hardly any fish left.

Narrator: The prince often listened to where the village fishermen planned to go, and he would always get there first to eat his fill of the delicious fish. With his father's cloak around his shoulders, the prince could transform into a shark whenever he chose. The fishermen were becoming suspicious.

Exit fishermen. Prince creeps down to the water's edge and wraps the cloak around his shoulders before jumping into the sea. A shark fin can be seen heading out into the water. Enter fishermen.

Fisherman 1: I knew it! That trickster boy has been stealing our fish.

Fisherman 2: It's not right, using magic to rob honest people of food and a living.

Fisherman 1: He must go.

Read the excerpt from the story Hummingbird and Heron:

The two birds began to argue over who had eaten more fish. Finally, Hummingbird raised his wing to stop the debate.

"I do not think there are enough fish left in the river for both of us," he said. "Let's have a race. Whoever reaches the dead tree on the other side of the hills first owns all the fish. The loser has to find something else to eat."

Heron agreed. They prepared to race. Hummingbird was certain that he would win. He watched Heron as she awkwardly stretched her wings and prepared to fly. This will be like catching fish in a barrel, he thought with a grin.

Hummingbird zoomed past Heron as soon as the race began. He flew so far ahead that he lost sight of her behind him. He slowed down as he passed a patch of wildflowers. They smelled so sweet that he had to stop and look at them more closely. Hummingbird just had to try some of their nectar. He drank until his belly was heavy and his eyelids drooped. Perhaps just a short nap, he thought, as he settled himself into a nest of soft leaves.

It was late in the day when Hummingbird woke up. He stretched his wings and glanced at the sky. He could just make out the shape of Heron, flying slowly but surely toward the dead tree. She was almost done with the race! Hummingbird zipped into the air and flew as fast as he could, but it was too late. Heron reached the tree first. From that day forward, Heron owned the fish, and Hummingbird lived on nectar.

In both mythical texts, greedy characters choose to try to trick or manipulate other characters. What is different about the experiences of the shark prince and Hummingbird?

Only Hummingbird's manipulation of Heron is discovered as he drinks nectar and naps.
Only Hummingbird's manipulation of Heron is unsuccessful because he drinks nectar and naps.
Only the shark prince's tricking of the fishermen is successful because he keeps eating the fish.
Only shark prince's tricking of the fishermen remains a secret as he keeps eating the fish.

Answer: Only Hummingbird's manipulation of Heron is unsuccessful because he drinks nectar and naps.

Explanation:

"He drank until his belly was heavy and his eyelids drooped. Perhaps just a short nap, he thought, as he settled himself into a nest of soft leaves."

"Heron reached the tree first. From that day forward, Heron owned the fish, and Hummingbird lived on nectar."

There's a condition in combat that occurs when a soldier is completely stressed
out and is "on the verge of a nervous collapse." In World War I it was called 'shell
shock. Simple, honest, direct language. Two syllables. Shell shock. It almost
sounds like the guns themselves

...[i]n World War II the same combat condition was called "battle fatigue." Four syllables now; takes a little longer to say. Doesn't seem to hurt as much...
By the... Korean War... the very same condition was being called "operational
exhaustion." The phrase was up to eight syllables now, and any last traces of
humanity had been completely squeezed out of it....
Then... we got into Vietnam, and, thanks to the deceptions surrounding that war,
it's no surprise that the very same condition was referred to as "post-traumatic
stress disorder." Still eight syllables, but we've added a hyphen, and the pain is
completely buried under jargon... I'll bet if they had still been calling it "shell
shock," some of those Vietnam veterans might have received the attention they
needed.

Refining Discussion Techniques Project: Group Discussion [HERE'S THE FULL ESSAY]




For my group discussion I gathered three of my friends to Discuss whether the New California Republic would win the war against the legion in Fallout: New Vegas. I believe Everybody made their points effectively and clear, with all of us deciding unanimously on the New California Republic.

To prepare for the discussion, I played Fallout for half an hour and read through some Fallout comic books, this prepared me well. We each spoke in turns, making all of our points seperately to present them more clearly. Our perspectives may have affected this because many of us may have been biased toward the New California Republic.

We debated heavily at times, but using examples of previously successful endeavors usually settled those debates, and we always remembered to stick to the facts. While many of our perspectives are similar there were many differences, like when Cain had a more lenient opinion of the Legion since he was the only one who had beat them on his first play of the game, this influenced all of our opinions in part and made us think of them in a different way.

We tried to keep the discussion grammatically correct, but it often delved into casual conversation given the subject at hand. I used proper enunciation during any points where I wanted it to be remembered. Eventually toward the end we all started agreeing when we all thought of the way the Legion approached their first battle to take the hoover dam, this was the event that cleared up a lot of the disagreements we were having about the Legion’s ability. All in all the discussion was very fun and strengthened all of our opinions significantly about the subject.

A. In the past, leadership scholars considered charisma, intelligence, and other personality traits to be the key to effective leadership.
