...use her happiness to receive the love she expected Spoon River to reciprocate. This resulted from the few flaws in her procedure that immobilized her chances to obtain the results she wanted. These flaws included her inability to express her feelings, and her inability to take the plunge and tell Spoon River her situation and desires. Her valuable beauty faded when she assumed Spoon River understood her emotions, and when she waited her whole life for the same emotions in return. One’s frailty to apply one’s beauty, in conjunction with physical force, results in the inability to obtain one’s yearning. Mrs. Williams and Ethan Frome, with rough experience, realized that this was the only way to obtain what they desired. Osborne made it seem as though she had an acceptable reason to why she never took action to express her feelings. She claimed that she could not speak due to her purity and simplicity. “[I] withered before your eyes, Spoon River, thirsting, thirsting, voiceless from chasteness of soul to ask you for love” (Masters 14-16). Osborne characterized herself as a celibate and simple woman who is limited to her desires. Because she does not show distinctiveness, she can not get the awareness of who she loves. This demonstrates the importance of individuality and distinctive components in order to grab other people’s attention and achieve what one aspires. If Osborne expressed her feelings toward Spoon River with physical action, by adding uniqueness to her...

...In Spoon River Anthology written by Edgar Lee Masters he creates many themes on being peace through death some examples of this theme are these following epitaphs; Wendell P. Bloyd, Fiddler Jones, Washington McNeely. You might ask how do these epitaphs relate to peace through death, Bloyd examines death after life as a why of god’s punishment. Jones ended his life with happiness even though he didn’t accomplish much, just forty acres and a broken fiddle. McNeely wanted success for his children but instead got failure but it all didn’t matter when he finally died. In this essay there will be ideas relating to the theme peace through death. Wendell P. Bloyd is a character that has been treated unfairly through life and as he reviews it in death we can see what he thought was wrong, one of those things was god. You could say he’s being too critical, to mean, and maybe even a little atheist, he said these things for he thought god put him on earth to be a fool, and always be fool. Bloyd was even ironically beaten to death by a catholic guard. He said “Where he was beaten to death by a catholic guard. My offense was this: I said god lied to Adam and destined him to lead a life of a fool,...” Wendell is a perfect example to idea of peace through death,...

Believing that you’re only able to live one life could benefit the person because they take that idea and they accept it. In that acceptance they choose to live everyday as if it were there last, so that by their last breath they can say they had a good life, even with the struggles and heartache. Most people live with the belief that we only have one life; although life is a gift with endless possibilities, it's not always...

...Purpose of Brochure The main purpose of the brochure is to inform potential customers about the business, and what sorts of products they sell. Panel 1 – This panel is essentially the most significant as it is the first part of the brochure that potential customers will see. Panel 1 contains a small amount of text, with four images and a bold, eye-catching WordArt title. I feel that it is purposeful because the images represent the products which are sold within the shop, and the text offers a brief overview of what sorts of products the shop sells. Panel 2 – The purpose of Panel 2 is to provide the potential customers with details on how to contact the business, should they want to. It contains the address of the business, an email address, and a telephone/fax number. There is also a map of Llangollen showing where ‘Cottage Cards and Crafts’ is located. Panel 3 – It informs potential customers about the business, with minimal text so that it does not look overloaded with text (which could put people off viewing it). It also contains 3 images of Llangollen within panel 3, which are purposeful because ‘Cottage Cards & Crafts’ is located in Llangollen. Panel 4 – The purpose of panel 4 is to convey a small amount of information about lovespoons. There is also 2 images on that panel; one of lovespoons and one of a welsh dragon. They are purposeful because ‘Cottage Cards & Crafts’ sell welsh lovespoons. Panel 5 - This panel contains a combination of text and images...

...Mekong River's development may flow into conflict By Marwaan Macan-Markar BANGKOK - The six Asian countries that share the waters of the Mekong River risk being swept into a regional conflict if their governments ignore flashpoints that have surfaced and do not coordinate actions that affect the river, experts here say. A potential trigger is the irregular flow of the Mekong's waters, which experts at a discussion marking World Water Day on Friday said was due to both natural factors and man-made development in countries upstream of the river, including dam development by China. "Unless we have a mechanism to regulate water use and support and develop it, we are bound to witness conflicts among countries that share the river," said Joern Kristensen, chief executive officer of the Mekong River Commission (MRC), an inter-governmental body that manages the river's lower basin. The most troubling period for the lower Mekong countries - Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand and Laos - is the annual dry season. So changes in river flows during this time hit them the hardest. "In the dry season, if one country upstream takes water for its own purpose, it affects the countries downstream," Kristensen said at a discussion on "Water and Conflict" at the United Nations Conference Center. The MRC's research has shown that during the dry months from around November through May, the 4,400-kilometer-long Mekong - which flows from the Tibetan plateau down to Vietnam and out to the South...

...of the river. 3. To investigate the impact of humans downstream. methodology On this field trip we went to Wag Water River. We use material such as rulers, stop watch, sketches and description of sites was made; method of observation was used to see how humans use the river for various reasons. Along the river channel group of student did the following at different points; Velocity: we measure the velocity of the river atleast three times to get an accurate measurement, we calculate the average. The velocity of the river was measured with a half filled bottle of water placed in the water at a given distance of 30m for some seconds (velocity=distance/time (seconds).The stream was also measured before and after tributary to show effect of tributaries, and deposit load which affects flow of the river stream and this was calculated by (cross section x velocity), then we compare the stream discharge at different sites and accounted for the differences. After we did that we also measured the depth of the river, we used the meter rule for this measurement, for every meter we measured the depth then we find the average. Rock samples were also taken to classified as: very angular, angular, sub-angular, sub- rounded, rounded and well-rounded and measured with a meter. Hence fort the student identifies bed loading at the three different across the width of the channel (atleast fifteen for each stop).

...Integrated Commercial Waterfront. Case: Sabarmati River, Ahmedabad. PRELIMINARY REPORT Thesis Guide Ajay Kaushik Submitted by: Shrikant Sharma 0806025 INTRODUCTION A river is a natural watercourse, usually freshwater, flowing towards an ocean, a lake, a sea, or another river. In a few cases, a river simply flows into the ground or dries up completely before reaching another body of water. Small rivers may also be called by several other names, including stream, creek, brook, rivulet, tributary and rill; there is no general rule that defines what can be called a river, although in some countries or communities a stream may be defined by its size. A river is part of the hydrological cycle. Water within a river is generally collected from precipitation through surface runoff, groundwater recharge, springs, and the release of stored water in natural ice and snowpack’s (e.g., from glaciers). Potamology is the scientific study of rivers. The water in a river is usually confined to a channel, made up of a stream bed between banks. In larger rivers there is also a wider floodplain shaped by flood-waters over-topping the channel. Flood plains may be very wide in relation to the size of the river channel. This distinction between river channel and floodplain can be blurred especially in urban areas where the floodplain of a river channel can become greatly developed by housing and industry. WATERFRONT The term “Riverfront” comes under the generic term “Waterfronts”...

...------------------------------------------------- Freshwater ecosystem From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Freshwater angelfish Freshwater ecosystems are a subset of Earth's aquatic ecosystems. They include lakes and ponds, rivers, streams, springs, and wetlands. They can be contrasted with marine ecosystems, which have a larger salt content. Freshwater habitats can be classified by different factors, including temperature, light penetration, and vegetation. Freshwater ecosystems can be divided into lentic ecosystems (still water) andlotic ecosystems (flowing water). Limnology (and its branch freshwater biology) is a study about freshwater ecosystems. It is a part of hydrobiology. Original efforts to understand and monitor freshwater ecosystems were spurred on by threats to human health (ex. Cholera outbreaks due to sewage contamination). Early monitoring focussed on chemical indicators, then bacteria, and finally algae, fungi and protozoa. A new type of monitoring involves differing groups of organisms (macroinvertebrates, macrophytes and fish) and the stream conditions associated with them. Current biomonitering techniques focus mainly on community structure or biochemical oxygen demand. Responses are measured by behavioural changes, altered rates of growth, reproduction or mortality. Macroinvertebrates are most often used in these models because of well known taxonomy, ease of collection, sensitivity to a range of stressors, and their overall value to the ecosystem...

Some of the words Herman Maclean had written that intrigued me was “No fish could live out there where the river exploded into colors and curves that would attract photographers. The fish were in that slow backwash, right in the dirty foam, with the dirt being one of the chief attractions. Part of the speckles would be pollen from pine trees, but most of the dirt was was edible insect life that had not survived the waterfall.” This quote is a great description of what Herman had seen and how he analyzed his surroundings when fishing. In his writings he even adds in quotes that he said or the people he was with and what he was saying in his mind to...
