...emphasis in their communication difficulties. (Wood, 1989) Midge seems to treat Scottie more as a mother than as a friend. Whether this is in an attempt to ease the pressure off Scottie with his vertigo, she constantly talks down to him. This is highlighted when Midge attempts to explain her bra to him, telling Scottie that "You know about these things. You're a big boy now." Scottie recognises this relationship, going as far as to tell Midge "Don't be so motherly." (Modleski, 1988) Another scene in which these two appear is when John attempts to overcome his vertigo by climbing a stepladder. This scene also highlights the mother-son relationship these two seem to have, as Midge warns Scottie while getting the ladder for him at the same time. While Scottie is climbing the ladder, he looks out the window and falls into vertigo again, dropping towards Midge. Here, Midge looks on with concern at John, and seems to hold him in a way very similar to the way a mother would hold her child. (Modleski, 1988) This motherly relationship is greatly emphasised when Scottie is taken to the...

...damaged by mobs. Notch has even added a splash text to this effect. It is always safer to mine in a staircase pattern or find an open-mouth cave on the surface. It is also safe to place ladders as you go so you don't fall off the block and get killed. A 2×1 hole straight down is still not advisable, but is much safer, since you don't have to stand on the block that you're removing. If you want to dig straight down, another method consists of mining 4 blocks in a 2×2. Stand on one and break the one next to it, hop onto the block below, and repeat. Make sure you don't dig two down from the one you step onto; you have to be able to jump back up. This will consume more resources but constructs a staircase back to the mine entrance. A safer method is to dig a 3×1 hole with a ladder down the middle. (Multiple ladders may also work.) It's worth re-adding some side blocks every 5 to 8 levels, in case you fall off the ladder. You can also pour water at the bottom to protect you from fall damage. The wider hole gives you room for both those side blocks and torches, and means you always have someplace safe to stand when digging. Such a shaft is also a good start for shaft mining the area. Another way is to dig down 3 blocks from the surface, place a ladder on the bottom block, stand on that ladder and mine the blocks below and repeat. This method isn't particularly fast, but can be useful if say you are in a small extreme hills biome and want to mine for emeralds without accidentally...

The afternoon was just as any ordinary afternoon of work that gets a new hair salon business up and running. It began with getting supplies together to go clean the marquee before putting the new sign up so that everyone would know that the hair salon that used to be beside Wal-Mart in our town had not gone out of business, just a change of location. Once the supplies were gathered, we headed to the marquee which was located by the major highway (HWY 40) about 50 yards from where the business is located. We began to set up all of the supplies to include the ladders, Windex, rags and tape in order to put the sign up correctly. Shortly after that, we began to put up the sign on the North side of the marquee. The wind was blowing and the ladders were a shaking, but we managed to get up them and...

...will, more than likely, experience anxiety. The fear of not being prepared for the test will cause the person to feel anxiety. With this being stated, anxiety can decrease when there is more time to gain the confidence of being prepared for upcoming tasks. The last cause of anxiety that will be mentioned is the tendency to look too deeply into a problem that has a simple solution. It is easy for some to fall into the trap of thinking that a problem absolutely has to be complicated in order to have a valid solution. This will cause anxiety because the simple solution may be unconsciously overlooked due to searching for a complex one. Overcoming this cause would consist of the person making a conscious effort to think of solutions as a step ladder, going from simple to complex. In conclusion, there are people who can’t control their anxiety; for the ones who can control it, knowing the causes can be a great start in decreasing the likelihood of more...

...In Pynchon’s, The Crying of Lot 49, we are thrown into the life of a paranoid woman, Oedipa. At first she is a cliche of a woman; she literally starts the story off with returning home from a Tupperware party. We soon find that she is much more interesting than a cliche character as we follow Oedipa through a series of unfolding conspiracies that redefine and shape her life. It seems that her new found obsession with searching for the meaning of a sign called “the trystero” begins to give meaning to her life. She becomes so engrossed with finding out more about this sign that she relentlessly researches into and follow clues that will leader closer to the truth about the trystero. We find that in the end there is hardly any concrete meaning to the trystero; it is seen all throughout history and pertains to people of all spheres of life. This only leads Oedipa down a path of more questioning and fewer answers. Through this, we find that although she is able to find meaning or context about the trystero, there is still no real, concrete conspiracy that we can define clearly. Instead of the trystero being the definable image to a conspiracy, the trystero only leads us, and Oedipa down a road of more questioning. In one of Oedipa’s first encounters with discussing the trystero with Dribblet, she finds that he has an understanding about the...

...Thomas Pynchon Thomas Pynchon, a contemporary as well as a post-modernist writer began his writing career and found much success in the nineteen sixties and seventies eras. Pynchon was influenced by his time period and wrote about the serious issues surrounding society, while also incorporating satirical notions, which reflected his quirky personality. The sixties and seventies produced a culture heavily focused on science, mathematics, technology, industrialization, war, and also a counterculture movement focused on pop culture, self-expression, sex, drugs, and crime. In each of Thomas Pynchon’s writings, representations of these key environmental, social, political, and cultural forces that define these eras are evident. Pynchon began his collegiate career studying engineering physics at Cornell University. Although he did not complete this degree, Pynchon was heavily interested in science and technology. His first job out of school was with Boeing Aircraft Corporation in which he was a technical writer and found inspiration for many of his works (Pynchon 3). Science was not only interesting to Pynchon; it was an interest of the culture of the sixties and seventies. The expansion of the space program in the sixties as well as the voyager programs of the seventies placed heavy emphasis on space and exploration. Emphasis on technological advancement and the increased use of mathematics also became prominent interests in these eras, which led to a common theme to many of Pynchon’s...

...Globalization Globalization is an ongoing process of integration and interaction amongst companies, governments and people. It is driven by invention of new technologies and forms of communications, international trade and investment. In addition to economic aspects, globalization plays an important part in other fields. It can also be defined as the integration of economic, cultural, political, ecological and social systems through internationalization and interconnectedness. Globalization is the principally new step in the development of the long-term process of internationalization (transnationalization) of the economic, political, cultural, legal and other aspects of the society's life, at the point when interrelationships between the national socials have reached such a level, when some drastic changes within the entire world community gradually transforming into the integral society institute, became inevitable. The level of economic, scientific, technological, legal and informational interrelationships of the national industries have reached a point, when at least three principally novel features are imminent. First, the world's economic community, formerly seen as loosely connected multiple countries, is gradually transforming into the integral economic system, with national societies now representing the constituents of the integral world's economic body. Second, while conditions of globalization, national and global economic issues are swapping...

Henry, through the story, advices us should love ourselves and other people. The love between three persons, Johnsy, Sue and old Behrman makes a moving story. Johnsy had sometimes forgotten loving herself and cause the worry for Sue, but the biggest love is the love of the old Behrman for Johnsy. He was self - sacrifice to save the life of Johnsy. Despite being a old man, he didn't hesitate to go out in a cold weather, climb up the ladder and paint the last leaf, because he know that it is the leaf of hope, a hope for a life that is giving up . In addition, I never see that life and death seem to be close like that. The fate is “decided” just through the last faint ivy leaf, it was...
