...between Conrad and his parents, and in especially with his mother. She takes and interprets all of his actions the wrong way, thinking that he is pointing her out in order to hurt her feelings. Therefore, in order for a relationship to be strong and for it to last, there must be proper communication, with being outgoing and honest. Another important element in relationship is trusting. Without trust a relationship will most likely be sabotaged with suspicion and lies. Cal trusted his son, Con in many ways, even before Con learned to trust himself. One of the first evident signs of external trust in this novel was when Con gets his car for Christmas and "Cal, resisting the urge to call, 'Take it easy!' or any other of those good luck charms, thinks, He will be very careful. He will take it easy, even though he has not driven in nearly a year, because he is a good driver." (Page 117) An additional show of a lack of trust is when Con does not have enough belief in his mother to tell her how he feels about all the things he is feeling. This includes what he believes his mother thinks of him, and about his feelings on his brother's death. When a relationship is in lack of trust, many hurtful and damaging things are held inside, and feelings do not become acknowledged or known. The element of forgiveness is very important in numerous ways, because no one is exactly perfect, and everyone makes mistakes in life as expected. Some people can come to terms with the past and move on, but others...

The Spanish name for pineapple, pina, and the root of its English name, reflects the fruit's visual similarity to the pinecone. Pineapples are actually not just one fruit but a composite of many flowers whose individual fruitlets fuse together around a central core. Each fruitlet can be identified by an "eye," the rough spiny marking on the pineapple's surface. The pineapple plant...

Easy Riders, Raging Bulls is remarkable in the way that gave us an understanding and behind the scenes of Hollywood’s last golden age. “The 70s were the first time that a kind of age restriction was lifted. Young people were allowed to come rushing in with all of their naïveté and their wisdom and the privileges of youth. It was just an avalanche of new ideas, which is why the 70s were such a watershed” (Biskind 15). A small low budget biker movie made in 1969 sparked the new era of movies, known as Easy Rider. This movie was a shock but a huge success to Hollywood for the fact it was made with drugs, booze, and violent rivalry. Once Easy Rider was successful a new breed of directors were in demand, such as Francis Coppola, Peter Bogdanovich, George Lucas, and Martin Scorsese.

It was prominent due to usage of new narrative and style techniques in presenting changes in American values in the film industry at that time. The period of 60’s is known as a period of change, which was carrying an idea that the goal American society sets, can be successfully achieved. The most common topic in the movies of that period was America’s role in the World, as well as it’s controversial position. President of the US at that time, John Kennedy was promising that before the end of the decade men will step on the moon. He also lobbied for the civil right movement and the Civil Rights Act, which emphasized the end of the period of long segregation in the South. The latter finally gave the same amount of equality to Whites and Blacks. However, the decade ended with the Watts riots.

...“The Sufi Tale”. In Lord of the Flies, the “beast” or the “Lord of the Flies” represents the fear of the unknown, while in “Sufi tale” the watermelon is the symbol of fear. The boys in Lord of the Flies react almost the same as the villagers in “Sufi Tale”, they both cower and are afraid of this unknown. The settings of both stories are idyllic, but the fears have ruined the paradise by causing chaos. However the endings of both stories are entirely opposite due to the leaders’ solutions. Since the settings in both stories are both idyllic, lives should be easy, peace, and happy. “The Sufi Tale” happens in a small quiet agricultural village. Villagers use simple tools and have plenty of trees, fruits, and food. People there have happy lives. Although in Lord of the Flies, the boys’ plane crushed, the island is perfect just like the Eden paradise. The boys do not have to worry about food, because the island is full of fruit trees and small animals that they can hunt such as pigs. Also, the weather of the island is warm, so they do not have a problem about how to keep themselves away from freezing at night. Therefore the island is idyllic, even Ralph said “this is a good island” and “we can have a good time on this island”. Even though the fears of the unknown are presented in different forms in two stories, the chaos it causes does not change. Fear of the unknown is represented in Lord of the Flies by the “beast”. The kids are scared of the unknown “beast” and they think it is...

...orchard stacks, and the cold storage buildings? This case study suggest scalability, the textbook stated that when analyzing a customer’s scalability goals, it is important to keep in mind that there are obstacles to scalability, in this case the fruit trees can grow tall and leafy, therefore they can absorb wireless radio frequency (RF) signal (Oppenheimer, 2011). Therefore, the selection of technology that can meet Harriett’s goals for accommodating her tall fruit trees is vital and the having proper storage is essential as well, because the cold storage buildings have ice hazards, which impedes the installation of equipment. Scalability is integral during the phase of network design process such whether to use LAN or WAN. In my opinion the usage of WAN would be better due to the cold storage buildings, because it have less capacity than LANs, but also it has more affordability due to routing protocols that can minimizes WAN traffic, improve efficiency on WAN circuits the utilization of a compression, allocated WAN bandwidth (Oppenheimer, 2011). The utilization of Ethernet because it has the standard method for connecting servers, switches, and end users’ machines (Oppenheimer, 2011). Make a list of business goals for Harriet’s Fruits and Chocolate Company. What are some constraints that will affect these goals?

...examine the fruit eating habits of the children in elementary and middle schools. This research showed that apart from general hatred among the children for fruits, there are certain other reasons which turn to affect their eating habits, psychologically. One of them was spotted as the form in which the fruits are presented. Researchers said, on average slice cut fruits are more liked by the children as compared to whole fruits. In this experiment, three of six schools were allotted randomly to serve apples in cuts. The variable set was the amount of fruit intake by the students in the schools. Three control schools served apples as a whole, in their cafeterias. Determination, utilization, and misuse of apples were measured before and amid treatment. (Robert, Washington) This result suggested the key finding that in the schools where slice-cut pieces were served, the fruit eating students’ percentage increased by 71% as compared to the schools which served whole fruits. This study applies the rule of accommodation from behavioral financial aspects and gives a case of an adaptable, easy ecological change that advances adherence to a good diet and declines waste.

Pineapple consumption has double in last 10 years, making the industry grow into a more complex chain. Other major fruit product today is plantains, which production has grown over 60% in the last 30 years. Plantains have become a major part of food in Central and West Africa, and in other regions such as the Caribbean Islands, South, and Central America. As comsuption for both fruits have been increasing during the last few years, it comes as no surprise that more and more producers have entered in the industry. Traditionally, the world’s largest pineapple producer was Hawaii, however today only two fresh pineapple operations are left in the country as production and labor has become cheaper elsewhere. On the other hand, though many have joined the plantain production, still...

...Early farmers picked up some fruit of wild plants to home, eat them, and spited out the bigger seeds or defecated the tiny size seeds to human latrines. And then the seeds germinated in the early lab. But the key points were how the early farmers decided to pick up which fruit? It’s not hard to make some hypothesis: Fruit size: Strawberry, early farmers went into thorny thicket amid the mosquitoes on a hot, humid day to pick up strawberry; the only criterion is the size. The early farmer would choose only bigger size ones to compensate the while to get sunburned and mosquito bitten. Bitterness: Many wild seeds evolved to be bitter, bad-tasting or even poisonous to keep human or animals away from eating them. Natural selection functioned as getting the fruit tasteful dispersed by animals and continue the process of reproducing, meanwhile if the seed remained tasteful, the animal will chew them up as well. Occasional individual almond trees have a mutation in a single gene that prevents them from synthesizing the bitter-tasting amygdalin, which breaks down to yield poison cyanide. Such trees die out in the wild, while the trees lived near humans survived by being picked up by curious children or early farmers who noticed the non-bitter fruit. Fleshiness, Oiliness and fiber length are all similar in the selection process. Initially the wild fruit had less fruit around their seeds, but early farmers chose the fruit mutated to be with more Fleshiness, less seeds, such as squashes...
