...examining the two newspapers, it can be stated that there are some similarities and definitely differences. Although the readership can be assumed to be of different personality types WSJ and NE contain similarities and differences in terms of their graphics, advertisements, and article content. To start with, comparing the graphics of the two publications, it is noted that both have similarity with the use of bold larger font lettering for their headlines making a visual effect in separating articles. Both papers use colored ink for images and pictures and also feature photos of people that mirror human emotion. For example, the WSJ’s article “Teens Care Spurs Wider Fight” has a picture of the teen’s mother looking distraught and another article in the WSJ sports section titled “Team Canada: Officially Unstoppable” shows a hockey player with his hands up in the air and a look of celebratory victory with a huge smile on his face. In like manner, NE has numerous photos of people showing emotion. For instance, the article “Mad Mel’s Even Madder” contains a photo shot of Mel Gibson with a look of anger and appears as if he is yelling; while another article on the same page “Celine’s Cancer Stricken Husband” shows a picture of Celine Dion looking down with a wrinkled forehead and a frown on her face. Although both contain some graphic similarities, there is definitely a difference how the graphics are presented and used. Even though the headlines of both publications...

...Compare and Contrast Tuck Everlasting Paper The novel and movie Tuck Everlasting are both exciting and interesting. The story Tuck Everlasting written by Natalie Babbitt is about a family that can not die, but they live forever. The novel and movie are both amazing and many people recommend it.

...Cuneiform and modern typing on a computer has similarities and differences. Both forms of writing revolutionized the society. For Mesopotamia, cuneiform made a big difference for them because they can record important events and important people in Mesopotamia. In modern time, typing was very important because if you make a mistake, you just have to click a button. And if you want to add something in the middle, instead of erasing you can just add it in. Out of the two, typing is easier. It is easier because you don’t need clay and it isn’t messy. If you make a mistake you can erase it easily. When the clay is dry and you made a mistake you have to start over. There are also differences between typing and cuneiform. For cuneiform it is longer to right and it is by hand. You need clay tablets. There is a stylus and symbols instead of letters. It is harder to correct and needs a lot of training. Cuneiform is wedge shaped and the tablet is sun dried on dried in a kiln. On the computer, you push buttons to get letters. It is a faster way to write. To print, you use ink and typing uses a keyboard. Although typing is better, it is also more expensive. You also use paper instead of clay to print. Typing uses electricity and you need little training. It is also easy to correct and faster send to people. Even though it is hard to write in cuneiform by looking for every letter it is fun doing it in on clay. Scribes in the ancient times must have had a lot of fun working with clay. I know...

...to write about them. Comparing thru contrast would be a much better essay. The idea of writing any essay is to interest the reader to the point where they do not want to stop reading the paper. It is important to capture the reader’s attention, and to keep their interest until the end of the story, or essay. Comparing two ideas that are similar and comparing their similarities could be detailed on how you could change something about the subjects to be able to show their differences. Letting the reader make their own conclusions after giving them the information will help to get the reader involved. subjects. The situations in which these are most effective are professional reflections. Professional comparisons are usually backed by professional primary sources. Those are primary sources can give factual information about both viewpoints in the essay. Personal reflections in a compare and contrast essay is slightly more ineffective as usually personal emotions can get in the way of being objective. If you take one side of a two viewpoint subject, you would find the essay favor the side you have taken. Professional compare and contrast essays are coming from multiple viewpoints. These viewpoints are factual based and usually have a logical conclusion. This is the primary difference when using a compare and contrast essay. Much like a diagram or graph, a compare and contrast essay shows measurable results to the reader. Thus allowing them to come to their own...

...handout will help you first to determine whether a particular assignment is asking for comparison/contrast and then to generate a list of similarities and differences, decide which similarities and differences to focus on, and organize your paper so that it will be clear and effective. It will also explain how you can (and why you should) develop a thesis that goes beyond “Thing A and Thing B are similar in many ways but different in others.” INTRODUCTION In your career as a student, you’ll encounter many different kinds of writing assignments, each with its own requirements. One of the most common is the comparison/contrast essay, in which you focus on the ways in which certain things or ideas—usually two of them—are similar to (this is the comparison) and/or different from (this is the contrast) one another. By assigning such essays, your instructors are encouraging you to make connections between texts or ideas, engage in critical thinking, and go beyond mere description or summary to generate interesting analysis: when you reflect on similarities and differences, you gain a deeper understanding of the items you are comparing, their relationship to each other, and what is most important about them. RECOGNIZING COMPARISON/CONTRAST IN ASSIGNMENTS Some assignments use words—like compare, contrast, similarities, and differences—that make it easy for you to see that they are asking you to compare and/or contrast. Here are a few hypothetical examples: * Compare and contrast Frye’s...

...Though I believe that Canaanites and Israelites are essentially the same people, the Israelites just being a new generation of Canaanites that left the larger cities and included other peoples from outside of Canaan, there are still several differences between the two people. But what are the differences between Canaanites and Israelites? That is what I plan to discuss and explain in this paper. One obvious difference between Canaanites and Israelites are the gods they worshiped. Though Israelites more than likely worshiped some Canaanite gods, the number of gods seems to be significantly less than before, not to mention the presence of YHWH that becomes prevalent during this time. Though gods like Asherah and Baal are still worshiped, others seem to fall out of favor as YHWH becomes more popular (Tappy). Though unclear how exactly YHWH came to the region, it was probably diffused from somewhere else to the Highlands, and rapidly gained popularity, to the point where it was the Israelites chief god instead of Baal, like with the Canaanites. Still...

...The concept of death is filled with a vast amount of uncertainty, the concept of where one goes after death is a question that had baffled people from the beginning of time. A number of people have attempted to create individual ideas of what the afterlife will be like. This paper will try to find the differences and the similarities between the hell that is depicted in Dante’s Inferno and in the film What Dreams May Come. The film, What Dreams May Come, is about two people, Chris and Annie, who fall in love and become soul mates. Unfortunately Annie faces many hardships in her life after her two children pass away in a car accident in addition to her husband dying as well. Annie is unable to deal with the pain of her losses and chooses to commit suicide. Because of Annie’s decision to end her life she goes to a special place in hell for those who commit suicide while Chris is in heaven. Once Chris realizes that Annie will never be able to join him in heaven he promises to journey to hell and retrieve Annie and bring her back with him to live in heaven together for eternity. A difference between Dante’s depiction of hell and the film’s view of hell is the concept of where one goes when he or she dies being subjective or objective. In Dante’s Inferno, he creates a hell that is full of creative monsters, and terrifying lands filled with unthinkable punishments for the crimes that were committed while the person was alive. This hell is divided and then subdivided again into...

...Code of Ethics Comparison Abstract This paper is a comparison between the codes of ethics of the American Counseling Association (ACA) and the American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC). This paper aims to present the similarities and differences between the two codes of ethics. There are two main sections on this paper. The first section presents the general similarities and differences of the two codes of ethics. The second section presents the similarities and differences of the two codes of ethics on three specific areas: Confidentiality, Sexual Intimacies and Informed Consent. The author used the codes of ethics of both organizations in the process of comparing and contrasting. The general comparison reveals that the codes of ethics of the two organizations apply to the same profession but they differ in the foundation upon which their codes of ethics were crafted. The comparison on three specific areas reveals similarities in contents but differ in depth and details. Introduction The code of ethics is the heart and soul of any business or professional organization. This code of ethics sets the standard to which all business or professional activities of all of its members are measured. This code is the ultimate guide on how members of the organization should act in connection with the performance of their duties and obligations. Likewise, it is the basis upon which disputes can be settled or decisions are to be made. This is the protection of each member...

...This six weeks we read The Princess Bride and watched the movie. They were both interesting and intriguing. In this paper I will be comparing and contrasting the movie from the book. I will explain what the movie lacked or what the book added. This paper will explore how different the book and movie were from each other. I will discuss the difference between Princess Buttercup and Westley. At the beginning of the book, Buttercup was always rude and made Westley do all her chores, “Farm Boy, fetch me this,” Buttercup said. One day, when the Count and Countess came to visit, Buttercup realized that she was in love with Westley. She told him how she felt and Westley seemed as if he didn’t feel the same way, “I love you,” Buttercup said, but Westley just closed the door without saying a word. The next day Westley told Buttercup that he was going to America for a better life and that they would meet again. The movie was similar but not quite like the book; Buttercup was rude to Westley but that was not explained in the movie, “As you wish,” Westley would always respond with. The Count and Countess never went to her house, but when Buttercup told Westley that she was in love with him, Westley felt...

...With the completion of the assignment from week four, questions six thru twelve are the questions that discuss the similarities and differences in circulation, tracking, and the security measures for handling and the storage within small, medium, and large facilities. Going question by question to review and to draw conclusions about the similarities and differences in these different size facilities. Question six states if paper records: How many different locations are there in your department that patient files may be found? From this I can conclude that smaller offices that use the paper filling system instead of electronic more than likely have less holding space for the medical records while medium and large facilities may have more holding stations, but now usually have less than a small facility does because they more electronic records than paper. Question seven, if paper records: Is there a need to chart the circulation of files from one location to another, so that your staff knows where files are kept? What I can conclude form this question is that no matter what size facility the staff is working in, there should be some sort of organization process or filing system, either alphabetical or numerical order of the patient’s medical records and they should not have to be circulated from one location to the next so that each staff member knows where it is located. In question nine, what can cause the biggest problem for records management if it isn’t done right? I also...

...they are different. In a comparison/contrast paper, be sure to develop a thesis that includes words that signal comparisons, such as “although,” “even though,” “in spite of,” “except for,” “not withstanding,” or “but.” Also, use appropriate transitions to signal comparisons and link paragraphs within the body of your paper, such as “on the other hand,” “in contrast,” “similarly,” “also,” “both,” “even though,” and “in the same way.” In order for two things to be worth comparing, the two things should initially appear to be different. In order for two things to be worth contrasting, the two things should initially appear to be similar. Comparing and contrasting are ways of exploring the similarities and differences between two things. 'Compare and contrast' is often used as a development strategy for essay assignments but it's a helpful strategy for any important decisions you have to make. Generally speaking, comparing is showing the similarities, and contrasting is showing differences between two things that are related in some way. For example, you wouldn't compare/contrast reading a book to driving a car, but you would compare reading a book to reading with an e-reader.

There are many similarities between King Arthur and Queen Elizabeth II, but there are also many differences. This paper will not be discussing the differences, only the similarities. Everybody knows that King Arthur was the king of his country, and Queen Elizabeth II is the queen of her country, so that will not be discussed into a whole lot of detail, but not everyone knows the way they rule/ ruled their country. The first similarity is that both Queen Elizabeth II and King Arthur ruled at a relatively young age. Queen Elizabeth II assumed official duties at the age 16, Arthur too was 16 years old, so they were even the same age. Though, they became...
