Roderick Kingsley, the Hobgoblin

"My name's Roderick Kingsley. That was my brother you killed. Which, honestly, I'm fine with. He was an idiot. But then you went too far… You stole my brand … SO YOU'RE A DEAD MAN!"
Roderick Kingsley was a ruthless designer in New York City who developed a financial empire that stretched far beyond the fashion industry. When a rival designer donned a costume and attempted to steal Kingsley's designs, he was saved only by the interference of Spider-Man. Kingsley acquired the original Green Goblin suit and equipment from a bank robber who had discovered one of Osborn's hidden caches around the city. Taking the name Hobgoblin, Kingsley used his costumed identity to grow his business interests without implicating himself, and became a regular foe to Spider-Man and other New York heroes.

These are the following classes I'm going to be taking next year as a senior in high school. Please if you have any advice for these classes feel free share, thank you. I will leave a caveat for each class that is on this list, so hopefully that can demonstrate to you my take/worries about the class.

2023.06.01 21:22 vero_v How do you connect patrons with social workers and other resources when nobody speaks their language?

Hi! I'm a librarian in a public library and I'm way over my head. About a half a year ago, my boss introduced me to a family of latinx refugees who needed assistance getting acquainted with the library. Once I started speaking to them in Spanish (I'm the only Spanish speaker in the library and apparently working for the town), I learned they were in a very dire place. I've told them I'm not a social worker, but I do my best to connect them to the best resources. I don't know how many emails I've sent, but it looked like things were starting to look up after a couple of failed tries. Today, I come to find out a lot of the organizations and people who were helping sort of backed out with no follow up. I'm trying to connect them to a social worker who can work their case, interpret in Spanish (or work with someone who does), and go from there. I've also sent them info on childcare assistance and housing assistance. They're about to lose their home by the end of the summer and MA takes forever to place families in public housing.
Now I know my hands are tied and it's not my profession. But I can't ignore this if there's any way I can direct them to someone who CAN help. My question is - where do I go from here?
There are so many organizations and gov offices that provide assistance, but how do you even get started if you can't speak English? Moreso, how do you get started if you're unfamiliar with the process and don't have someone assigned to you who can guide you? It's very overwhelming for me and I'm an outsider. The Mass.gov website itself is a labyrinth without translation options.
Any advice, tips, etc. would be so helpful.
I've gone as far as contacting a dept that works with refugees and after a while, they just stopped answering questions. I understand people are overworked, but people still need help. It's very heartbreaking!

2023.06.01 15:48 Sgchd Health Department launches Revive, an overdose death prevention mobile app

Health Department launches Revive, an overdose death prevention mobile app
​
https://preview.redd.it/shdawp2eve3b1.png?width=650&format=png&auto=webp&s=f525ec1c8cc1ba0c9a586c6df45bcf1b57c1996b
In response to the growing epidemic of drug overdose deaths impacting our community, Springfield-Greene County Health has launched the new mobile- and web-based app Revive. This app will provide resources and lifesaving guidance to people in both English and Spanish who use illicit substances, their loved ones, service providers and other people in the community who might encounter someone experiencing an overdose.
The goal of Revive is to prevent a drug overdose from becoming an overdose death. The 2022 Community Health Needs Assessment showed that drug use and the rate of overdose deaths in our community is significant. In fact, the drug overdose mortality rate is more than 25% higher in Greene, Christian, and Webster counties are than in the rest of the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, opioids were involved in nearly 75% of drug overdose deaths in 2020 and a majority of those involved a synthetic opioid, primarily fentanyl. Fentanyl is 50 to 100 times more potent than drugs like morphine. It is highly addictive and just a very small amount can cause overdose and death.
Overdoses from opioids, including fentanyl, can be reversed using the life-saving medication naloxone. Revive allows people to find naloxone to carry with them and guides them through its proper use if the need arises. The app will provide written, verbal and visual step-by-step guidance to those responding to a drug overdose. It asks a few questions to provide the best information, then walks the user through how to administer naloxone, conduct CPR and position the person so they can remain safe until emergency services arrives. Revive also reassures the person responding that, under Missouri’s Good Samaritan Law, they will not be arrested for minor offenses including drug possession if they call 911 to help someone who is experiencing a medical emergency.
In addition to rescue guidance, Revive provides information on recognizing the signs of an overdose, maps of community resources like drug disposal sites and treatment services and information for those who have experienced a drug overdose. The Health Department plans to add additional features in the coming months.
The content for Revive was developed with input from several community partners, including the Southwest Missouri Drug Poisoning Coalition and Community Partnership of the Ozarks. CPO has also provided additional funding to help reach at-risk communities with the Revive app.
The Health Department encourages everyone to download Revive and familiarize themselves with its features to help us save lives, connect people with the resources they need to recover from addiction and lead longer, healthier and happier lives. Revive can be accessed and downloaded for free by going to Revive417.com or through the Apple and Google Play stores on your mobile device.

2023.06.01 13:14 RozyCheekz A Linguistic Breakdown of Bre with Saweetie

Hello fellow Redditers! A year ago, I made a post breaking down Chelsea’s accent here and why, from a linguistic perspective, she likely is not faking her accent. After the recent season of Selling Sunset dropped, I’ve seen quite a few discussions about Bre’s accent and how it changed when she was with Saweetie in episode 9. I, once again, see an opportunity to offer some insight using my background and education in linguistics.
So, many people have said that Bre’s change in accent is an example of something called code switching. From a linguistic perspective, code switching refers to a shift in linguistic code, such as a dialect or a language, depending on the social context. An easy example is switching from speaking German with your family to speaking English when you talk to your friend from England. In the episode being discussed, people have noticed that Bre shifts from her usual, professional manner of speaking to a manner of speaking similar to Saweetie, who appears to speak English with the African American English (AAE) dialect. I would argue that Bre doesn’t actually change her dialect; she changes her register.
Register refers to the stylistic variation of language depending on the formality of a situation. For example, when you are at work as a lawyer you speak in a more formal register than you do when you are at a bar with your friends. In a lot of her scenes, I think that Bre does speak in quite a formal register, which makes sense because of the ‘professional’ environment. However, there is a change in the way that Bre speaks when she is with Saweetie. Bre says in a talking head that she and Bre met while partying a few years prior and became friends. During the viewing, Bre and Saweetie appear to be drinking, laughing, and joking. With this in mind, it would make sense that Bre’s change in speech is due to her lowering her register from her usual, more professional speech to a more casual register because she is with a friend she is comfortable with. Speaking in a more relaxed and casual manner also means that Bre is also more likely to imitate Saweetie’s speech pattern unconsciously.
Now, imitation is a common linguistic occurrence, and many people, myself included, don’t always realize they are doing it. To use myself as an example, I speak English as my first language and Spanish as my second. When I lived in a country with a lot of native Spanish speakers who spoke English with an accent, other native English speakers pointed out that my accent in English had a few traces of a Spanish accent. Now, obviously this doesn’t mean that I was talking like Sofia Vergara, but because I was surrounded by people speaking English with a Spanish accent, I unconsciously was picking up on it. It went away almost immediately when I started speaking with native English speakers again, which goes to show how we can unintentionally shift our language to mimic our audience. (If you want an example of someone absolutely faking a change in speech, just look up Hillary Baldwin of Boston.)
Imitation has been well studied in linguistics, and I will link an article at the end that hits on several similar points and references other articles on the subject. It can definitely be unconscious, and research has actually shown that it does positively affect the way that a person is viewed. Imitation also falls under the umbrella of Communication Accommodation Theory (CAT), which seeks to explain how humans adjust their speech to reduce social distance during an interaction. I will link an article at the end that delves deeper into CAT, but my point is that changing your speech depending on the social situation is very common and is a part of normal human communication.
To give an example of Bre imitating Saweetie, when Saweetie and Bre go downstairs, Saweetie says, “this is my favorite part right here,” and as a response, Bre says, using a similar inflection, “that’s my type, right there.” In this exchange, Bre is agreeing with what Saweetie said, and it makes sense socially that Bre would imitate her.
Overall, while it is certainly possible that Bre is intentionally adopting an AAE dialect to endear herself to Saweetie, from a linguistic perspective, her change in speaking doesn’t raise any red flags and is very normal for the context of the encounter. I absolutely agree that it is problematic for a white woman to purposefully mimic AAE for personal gain, but, in my opinion, I don’t think that’s what Bre is doing in episode 9 with Saweetie.

2023.05.31 22:13 MikeHunt_004 Dual question post!!

Ok so first off I am applying as an International Relations major and I would like to submit a documentary I produced during the 11th grade about Ukrainian immigrants in my school. I think that showing admissions officers the documentary will be helpful in showing my accuity for Humanities that are necessary for such a major. Am I allowed to show this to admissions offices? And if so, how can I show it? Should I just expect to put the youtube link in my common app additional info section?
Second question is in regards to APs. I am finishing junior year with 4 AP's under my belt (ap world in 10th(5), apush ap psych and ap lang in 11th) and I got high 90's in all of them and hoping for good ap scores too. The thing is I have friends who have more APs such as ap bio and ap calc, which I don't have because bio never had anything to do with my interests and no calc because my math skills are really bad. My fear is that they will look at me coming out of my school with less AP's than others even though most of those APs I never took were stem focused (I go to a stem school which was a big mistake on my part when applying to high school but I thought I wanted to be a doctor).
Now my senior year is where I can take all the stuff that actually interests me: ap usgov/econ, ap stat, ap spanish, ap lit, ap comp gov.
My question is will t20's such as Johns Hopkins hold it against me that I took less ap courses than what was available to me as a sophomore and junior even if I am taking every AP course that could be related to my major? It just so happens that I am able to take these in my senior year otherwise I would have done them earlier. I would be coming out of High School with 10 Aps.
Also piggy backing of this question, can I submit senior year grades to my ED school even if it isn't midyear but earlier?
Thanks in advance!

Other things I enjoy doing:
Writing, I really want to write a fiction novel someday in HS, maybe I will even publish it if I have time I also want to get into app-building, I have a great idea for a practice-help app for musicians, so I will definitely be developing that over the summer, hell, maybe even make a startup.
IDK, it just seems like everyone in this sub is miles ahead of what I'm doing, hopefully that's not the case but if it is I better get grinding 💀💀

2023.05.31 01:22 Ok_Strawberry6518 Did anyone else hate AP classes?

When I was in high school over five years ago, my school district really emphasized AP classes. They eliminated honors classes soon after I got there, so the only options were regular classes or AP (or pre-AP for freshmen and sophomores).
I took AP human geography, AP U.S Gov., and AP Spanish. In my experience, I really hated these classes. The teaching style and philosophy didn’t sit right with me, and the extremely rigid curriculum snuffed out my passion for learning. If I remember correctly, we did a practice multiple choice every day, a practice free response every week, and every single class activity or discussion revolved around the test, not the subject matter at hand. It was one extremely long test prep session.
I had always been in gifted English classes since early elementary school, and now I’m an English major in college and very happy with that choice. I never took AP Lang or AP Lit because of a bad experience with my pre-AP English teacher. That was also when I went through a serious mental health challenge, and she didn’t recommend me for it. With my terrible experience in the the other classes, I didn’t want to be in AP Lang anyway, even though looking back, that was the only class appropriate for my abilities with the added bonus of being my favorite subject. It’s sad because I didn’t learn anything in regular English class as a junior. The obsession with test scores and writing an essay in an hour or a little longer is just so different from what a college class is actually like. College is challenging, but I feel engaged with the material since I’m learning for the sake of learning, not because of a test that I don’t intrinsically care about.

2023.05.31 00:23 Objective_Twist_5739 Too much or not bad?

(My younger friend is entering senior year and they wanted advice since they know I'm a frequent visitor in the AP Students forum). They're taking AP Literature, Pre-Calc, AP Gov, AP Environmental Science, and AP Spanish/Spanish 5 among other easy classes. I think they're only considering testing/dual enrolling on Lit, Spanish 5 (they're partially native speaker), and APES. They wanted to know if they're signing themselves up for failure in classwork alone. This is more APs than they've taken before which I think is stressing them out. Is there any reason they should be stressed?

2023.05.30 17:37 PapaCharlie9 Options Questions Safe Haven Thread May 29-June 4 2023

For the options questions you wanted to ask, but were afraid to. There are no stupid questions.   Fire away. This project succeeds via thoughtful sharing of knowledge. You, too, are invited to respond to these questions. This is a weekly rotation with past threads linked below.

BEFORE POSTING, PLEASE REVIEW THE BELOW LIST OF FREQUENT ANSWERS. .

..
Don't exercise your (long) options for stock! Exercising throws away extrinsic value that selling retrieves. Simply sell your (long) options, to close the position, to harvest value, for a gain or loss. Your break-even is the cost of your option when you are selling. If exercising (a call), your breakeven is the strike price plus the debit cost to enter the position. Further reading: Monday School: Exercise and Expiration are not what you think they are.
Also, generally, do not take an option to expiration, for similar reasons as above.
