...The poem that I choose to write about is “Wild Geese” by Mary Oliver. In this poem she compares the behaviors of wild geese and humans. The poem doesn’t have rhyming words, but it does have a calm tone. The poem starts out saying “You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it is”, these lines show repetition because she uses the word 'You' over and over again. These first few lines grasp the reader’s attention because you will think she is talking directly to you. These lines are telling the readers that they don’t have to ask for forgiveness all the time and they should be love themselves like the wild geese they have no regrets they don’t have a concept of right and wrong. The next lines also show repetitive rhythm using “Meanwhile”, “Meanwhile the world goes on. Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain are moving across the landscapes, over the prairies and the deep trees, the mountains and the rivers. Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air, are heading home again.” In these lines she is saying that the no matter what wrong we have done the world still goes on, it’s not going to stop. These lines have a lot of descriptive words that allows the reader to grasp a picture in their mind. The last line here shows that the geese are returning home and so can you. The last lines of the poem “Whoever you are, no matter how...

...The two short stories I have chosen to compare are “the Lottery” by Shirley Jackson, and “A Clean, Well-lighted Place” by Ernest Hemingway. These two short stories and authors are totally different, and touch on different walks of life. In the story “A Clean and Well-Lighted place,” the theme is centered around empathy, and despair. The author is economical with style in the short story. In the short story “The lottery,” the general theme is conformity, and irrational fear, and the narration of the story adds to the dark undertone, and distance to the reader as if they were looking in on a scene. Shirley Jackson wrote the story in a simple style, and straightforward manner. This is quite different to Ernest Hemingway’s short story “A Clean, Well-Lighted place,” because in contrast he concentrates on the dialogue between characters, and gives the reader a feeling of eves dropping a conversation in the café. I found some similarities between the stories, and the first is that there are no specific locations or period in time mentioned to set the scene. In “The Lottery,” the date of June 27th is mentioned, but no year is clear. In the story “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place,” Hemingway kept the focus of the story away from a specific date and location, and kept the center of interest on character dialogue. The reader is given some clues in both stories to draw their own conclusions as to the time period and location. Hemingway uses Spanish language in places, and mentions a soldier...

II, MW, 1:30-2:45 p.m. 20 October 2014 Compare and Contrast Analysis While reading two good stories, you can find many comparisons and difference between the two. Mama in Alice Walker’s “Everyday Use” and Amanda in Tennessee Williams “The Glass Menagerie” have some comparisons and difference. Mama and Amanda both live in modest homes. Mama’s house, “It is three rooms, just like the one that burned, except the rood is tin; they don’t make shingle roofs any more. There are no real windows, just some holes cut in the sides, like the portholes in a ship, but not round and not square, with rawhide holding the shutters up on the outside” (Walker 71). Amanda’s house, her front porch is a fire escape, so her house isn’t really that nice either (Williams 991). Also both Mama and Amanda are single mothers with two children. Both of their husbands left them with no say. Mama’s husband really doesn’t say why he left. But Amanda’s husband left with a phone call: TOM. This is our father who left us a long time ago. He was a telephone man who fell in love with a long distances; he gave up his job with the telephone company and skipped the light fantastic out of town… The last we heard of him containing a message of two words-“Hello-Good-bye!” and an address. (Williams 972) Another thing that Mama and Amanda have in common is that they have a different relationship with one of their children. Mama will probably pick Maggie over Dee, just like...

...Jada Huntley 2/27/15 English 1103 Margaret Garrison Compare & Contrast This paper is about two little girls and their similarities and differences. How they are different is that one of the little girls (Lynda Barry) is going unnoticed in her household and is being neglected and her only safe place is school and she loves it. The other little girl in Edward P. Jones story her mother takes care of her and makes sure she gets to school and has everything she needs for the first day. Where these two are the same is that they are both black, they both go to school and they both love it. “The Sanctuary of School” is Lynda Barry’s narrative essay about her experience as a neglected child and how she learned to use art to cope with her situation. In her essay Barry describes a memory of being a seven-year-old child of parents who focus their attention on finances instead of her and her brother. Barry writes about an occasion when she leaves her house in the early morning hours and finds herself at her school’s playground. She is found by the school janitor, who allows her to assist him as he does his duties to prepare the classrooms. Soon after she greeted by the school secretary and a teacher who both wave at her. When her teacher, Mrs. LeSane, arrives she runs toward her in tears of relief. Mrs. LaSane asks Barry to carry her purse, which Barry feels to be an honor. It is here that Barry finds her security in art, drawing a house with a blue sky and sun in the corner and...

...Children of Light Our fathers wrung their bread from stocks and stones And fenced their gardens with the Redmen's bones; Embarking from the Nether Land of Holland, Pilgrims unhouseled by Geneva's night, They planted here the Serpent's seeds of light; And here the pivoting searchlights probe to shock The riotous glass houses built on rock, And candles gutter by an empty altar, And light is where the landless blood of Cain Is burning, burning the unburied grain. Robert Lowell History History has to live with what was here, clutching and close to fumbling all we had-- it is so dull and gruesome how we die, unlike writing, life never finishes. Abel was finished; death is not remote, a flash-in-the-pan electrifies the skeptic, his cows crowding like skulls against high-voltage wire, his baby crying all night like a new machine. As in our Bibles, white-faced, predatory, the beautiful, mist-drunken hunter's moon ascends-- a child could give it a face: two holes, two holes, my eyes, my mouth, between them a skull's no-nose-- O there's a terrifying innocence in my face drenched with the silver salvage of the mornfrost. Robert Lowell Lowell was born in Boston, Massachusetts to a Boston Brahmin family that included poets Amy Lowell and James Russell Lowell. His mother, Charlotte Winslow, was a descendant of William Samuel Johnson, a signer of the United States Constitution, along with Jonathan Edwards, the famed Calvinist theologian, Anne Hutchinson, the...

...Lord Acton made, I do believe that power can lead to corruption, but not necessarily every individual will fall to victim to this. With power comes certain responsibility to lead others on a positive and uplifting path, never giving in to one’s own accord. Especially with “new” power, one can easily lose their morals in the pursuit of more power. This is greed and can lead to thief, lies, and total corruption. I believe that this comes from not only power, but the monetary reward that comes with power. Unfortunately more people than most strive to become the best not for bragging rights or to help others, but for the money flow that will be created from the power they obtain. Ego will also come into play, behaving as though others cannot compare to them, in this they are losing the ability to successfully lead and falling further into the corruption. According to the science and technology psychology, “to call someone “a little Hitler” meant he was a menial functionary who employed what power he had in order to annoy and frustrate others for his own gratification,” (2011). This reminded me of a time that I was employed at restaurant and me and another individual was up for the same promotion. The other individual ended up with the position and was now over me. I personally saw a change in them for the worse and how they abused their power to humiliate and weed out individuals that did not personally like, regardless of their performance on...

...1. Accounts receivable and other receivables The company maintains provision for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make require payments, and such losses have been within management’s expectations. 2. Inventories a. Valuation. IFRS requires that inventory is carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost of the certain finished goods that are purchased for resale in relation to semiconductor repair services cannot be determined using the LIFO because the IFRS does not permit the use of LIFO. b. Impairment. IFRS requires reversal of inventory impairments in the period in which an impairment condition reverses (with the reversal limited to the amount of the original write-down). 3. Property, Plant, and Equipment a. Cost. After initial recognition, IFRS permits two measurement alternatives: at cost less accumulated depreciation; or, if fair value can be measured reliably, at a revalued amount that equals its fair value at the date of the revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation. An entity must make an accounting policy choice to use either the cost model (that would be consistent with U.S. GAAP) or the revaluation model to measure each class of PP&E. The accounting policy that is selected must be applied to the entire class of PP&E. b. Depreciation. IFRS requires that each part of an item of PP&E with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item shall be depreciated...

...There are many similarities between the poems Nettle’s and The Manhunt one being that both poems are about people caring for someone close to them for instants in the poem Nettles it’s about a father who caring for his child after falling in a “parade” of Nettles but even after fixing him his father is still angered by the nettles and doesn’t want his child to feel this pain again so he decides to cut down the nettles but even after cutting them down, the new “recruit” of nettles are back within two weeks showing that no matter how hard the father tries to protect his son from pain “he would often feel sharp wounds again” this is the last line in the stanza which clearly shows how he’s son would experience pain in his life no matter how hard he tries to protect him. Whereas the Manhunt is about a man’s wife who is caring for him after his injuries from war and how he been scarred physically and emotionally. The poem is structured in couplets and each couplet lets us almost experience each small step the man wife took to help come close to him again and to get him to open up to her. The poem structure also looks like a ladder so each stanza could represent a rudder on the ladder and with every step she takes she is slowly getting closer to the top or her husband. Both poems also touch on the topic of love but in each poem it’s a different type of love, the love shown in the Manhunt is an intensive love towards her husband we see evidence of this from “handle and hold” and...

We speak together as one mind, one heart, one sound, so that love and support can be found. Our mistakes are learned from and we begin to look back, on the way things used to be before our music was intact. We cannot be a selfish a selfish generation only looking for fame, what we should realize is that at the end of every year we will never be the same.

As we stand here today as witnesses to the power of music in our...

There where many things that were revealed that caused the failure of some colonies and the success of others. From disease to greed and all the other ups and downs that molded America today. Major differences between the British colonies and the French colonies where the greed and the way the two colonies performed actions that made them fruitful in all the endeavors they were making their goals. Take for intense when the British first came over their goals weren’t clearly set out and endorsed by companies that did not well equip the people they sent over very well, which made it so colonist were very unprepared and met catastrophe. The goals that the British companies had set where small colonies, based for trade and they wanted fur and other agricultural items. The British had little to no regard for the Indians land and saw it as property that could be bought and sold, The British also believed that the land was their God given right and it was their job to use the land. They did trade with the Indians but didn’t see the major uses for the local understanding. The French on the other had came over and set a major problem for the British. The French colonist...
