Media and Leadership-Learning The Persuasive Language of Media
Reptilian Brain- When I watch this movie first i stood up and pushed myself back. But in the end of this commercial i felt comfortable.
Limbic Brain- I'm so exciting when i think about this commercial. But i felt sorry in the end of commercial.
Symbol- here is shown the clone with the symbol of mcdonalds.It's a wellknown symbol when we come accross it we remember mcdonalds.
Fear- we get excited when we watch this ad and we start thinking that how this commercial ends.
Strength- in this video the aggressive,strong acts of clone against the people is represented.And it ends the person's life in the end.
Hyperbola-they "kill" a person to advertise a cheese.
Diversion-in this film all eyes on must be in mcdonalds. but in the end only mcdonalds cheese are advertised. we can;t figure out what they want to advertise til the end of the film.
First time when i watched this ad i only thought the opinions of people who watch this film. but all excitement runs away in the final of the commercial.
i hope that you all have fun while whatching this film

Our Brain ON Media
At present days there are a lot of good films. But most of these films are horrors and the films that reflect daily life of simple people. I love watching horror films. The one that I adore is the “Hunter of vampire”. In this movie the events take place in Tokyo. There is shown the struggle of bad and good forces. The sister of the boy who struggle against the bad vampires fall in love with the vampire and the events flow in this way. One of the affecting points in this movie is that love has changed a bad vampire into a good one and he turn into the fighter against bad vampires. It’s very motivating that always the good conqueror over the bad! This movie affected a neocortex part and reptilian part of my brain. I’ve learned that everything may happen in life and unexpectedly things can change. But it’s important to know your goals and be goal-directed.

Rock and roll evolved in the United States in the late 1940s and early 1950s, and quickly spread to the rest of the world. Its immediate origins lay in a mixing together of various popular musical genres of the time, including rhythm and blues, gospel music, and country and western.[2] In 1951, Cleveland, Ohio disc jockey Alan Freed began playing rhythm and blues music for a multi-racial audience, and is credited with first using the phrase "rock and roll" to describe the music.[2]
There is much debate as to what should be considered the first rock & roll record. One leading contender is "Rocket 88" by Jackie Brenston and his Delta Cats (in fact, Ike Turner and his band The Kings of Rhythm), recorded by Sam Phillips for Sun Records in 1951. Four years later, Bill Haley's "Rock Around the Clock" (1955) became the first rock and roll song to top Billboard magazine's main sales and airplay charts, and opened the door worldwide for this new wave of popular culture. Rolling Stone magazine argued in 2004 that "That's All Right (Mama)" (1954), Elvis Presley's first single for Sun Records in Memphis, was the first rock and roll record[3]. But, at the same time, Big Joe Turner's "Shake, Rattle & Roll", later covered by Haley, was already at the top of the Billboard R&B charts. Other artists with early rock and roll hits included Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Fats Domino, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Gene Vincent.
The 1950s saw the growth in popularity of the electric guitar, and the development of a specifically rock and roll style of playing through such exponents as Berry, Link Wray, and Scotty Moore. It also saw major developments in recording technology such as multitrack recording developed by Les Paul, and the electronic treatment of sound by such innovators as Joe Meek. All these developments were important influences on later rock music.
The social effects of rock and roll were worldwide and massive. Far beyond simply a musical style, rock and roll influenced lifestyles, fashion, attitudes, and language. In addition, rock and roll may have helped the cause of the civil rights movement because both African American teens and white American teens enjoyed the music. However, by the early 1960s, much of the initial musical impetus and social radicalism of rock and roll had become dissipated, with the growth of teen idols, an emphasis on dance crazes, and the development of lightweight teenage pop music.

Of course I also prefer books in poetical and fantastic genre. I enjoy reading books.

I learn about the changes in the world by reading newspapers. In addition I have different journals about the culture and places of interest of Azerbaijan. It helps me to know more about my country.

3)All we have emotions. One fact is cannot ignored that music has a great affect on our emotions. A song can bring a tear to our eyes or can spread a smile across our face. Music always changes my mood. It can release me from sorrow and distress, encourage and motivate me, or slow me down and soothe me. . Some music represents people, and other music expresses people. Either way, music is around and keeps on growing. Growing to new ideas and feelings that captures its listeners.

Reading useful information and playing games to rest is what boosts my general knowledge
