...any business but in a non-profit human service organization the financial statements contain information that allows for identifying and measuring performance. Valley of the Sun United Way, a large non-profit organization located in Arizona, depends on government funding and private donations to continue operations and since it is an organization handling millions of dollars a year, accountability is a must. Team C has analyzed Valley of the Sun United Way’s audited financial statements and the following is the result of their analysis. 1) Where do you see major increases or decreases in line items? The changes between 2009 and 2010 are minimal if you consider the operating costs of running a business. The biggest change among the line items that I reviewed would be the change between net assets to net cash. The change occurred in the operating activities portion of the budget. In 2009 the total was $6,568,844 and the results from 2010 were $6,006,660. If only assessing the combined statements of cash flows, 2009 would appear to be a more successful year. However, the total net assets in 2010 were significantly higher than in 2009. 2010 saw more success in long term investments. If looking at all expenses and profits in 2009 and 2010, I would say that overall 2010 was a better year for Valley of the Sun. 2) What internal or external factors might have caused those changes in the line items over the course of the year? When reviewing the financial...

...INCA CREATION In the beginning, Pachacamac the sun rose slowly from Lake Titicaca. Pachacamac was so bright that nothing else could be seen in the sky but him. However the sky night was empty so he made the planets, stars and the moon. The moon became his wife and they both rules over the earth and heavens. Pachacamac made from stone the first humans who were creatures that knew nothing about the world or even how to survive in it. The sun and moon had a daughter and son and sent them to the earth to help the humans. The son taught the men how to plant fields and build houses and the daughter taught the women how to weave and make food. Pachacamac’s son became the first Inca, he and his wife went to find a place for their people to settle down. They stuck their fathers golden rods in the earth. Each rod would act as a symbol for his people to build a city. In the valley of Huanacauri another rod was planted and this became the first temple of the sun and this would be the place where people would settle. Then Inca and his wife went to gather his people. Inca went north and his wife south. In the small villages the husband and wife were both admired that people moved to the valley of Huanacauri. Incas wife’s followers settled in the south whilst Inca’s followers settle in the north. All of the cities were divided into northern and southern halves that represented males and female forces.

...clouds, weary mind and an anxious heart, I broke free and started running at valley at the heart of bustling suburban neighborhood. With a wide damp trail, no one seems to be running here for quite some time although it’s a trail for anyone to conveniently tread upon. It was a good day to run with the sun hiding somewhere behind the foliage of tree leaves. The valley is unsurprisingly huge. As I reached half a mile, the path ended with a log leading to a rocky road. I began to wonder if this is the end. Confused, I looked around there are no more paths and I wanted to see the small river at the bottom of the valley. So I tried to go down from a small cliff towards a dried water path. Afraid of course, because it gets darker downwards. One things that gets me going are the crumbs of rock placed by people who’ve been there before towards to a more visible path. I kept looking behind wondering also if I took the right path. I reached the nondescript river. Disappointed, I went back to the crossways. One path leads to the concrete paved road and another continues the trail. The question now is, what if this trail will lead to nowhere? Or what if I get loss? With my feet thinking ahead of me, it started the path continuing the trail. It surely leads me to a dead-end and the only way is to cross the river. If I cross the river, I will be on the other side of the valley and that side of the valley might have no exits. Assured by the rocks I saw at the river, I crossed anyways ...

...the expedition to the Ice Palace is more than just a chance to reunite with her school friends: it is the beginning of her acceptance of her aging process. Death has previously been presented as a topic too sophisticated for Siss, causing her to retreat from the her friends that were able to accept the death more easily. Siss was isolated from physically as well as emotionally. This separation paused her emotional growth and led to her desperate attachment to staying a child. As the group of children embark on their journey to the Ice palace, they first must go through a series of valleys. Crossing through the first of these valleys, “the sun had become strong and warmed the heather and last year’s pale grasses. It smelt like some magic morning when one was quite small, and now it lay like ballast, heavy inside them. All that one did not yet know. There was a little of it in that smell” (166). The sun is depicted as an opposing force, melting the ice that has covered the...

Around the swamp grew cattails about three feet tall. Off in the distance sat many trees, a mixture of oak and pines. To the other side was an open field with corn growing up from the ground. After he took in nature’s surroundings, he began to climb the ladder one step at a time. When he arrived at the top, he unhooked the latch for the door. He pushed, and the door swung open.

...MERCURY Mercury is the first planet from the sun and the smallest planet at the moment. Its revolution period is 88 earth days and its ration time is 59 days. Mercury is made up of core-iron-nickel alloy, mantle, and then the crust which is silicate. During the day mercury’s temperature reaches 800°F and at night it goes down to -279°F. Mercury looks similar to earth’s moon; it is covered with craters which are made from meteors, asteroids, and comets and it covers 70% of mercury. Its diameter is 3,031 miles, its mass is 5% of earth’s mass, and the sun is 6.3 times brighter. Mercury was named by the Greeks, after the messenger of their g-d. Mariner 10 visited mercury, it mapped 45% of it, and it was the only one which visited more than one planet during its mission. It went up from Cape Canaveral, Florida on November, 1973 and went to Venus in February of 1974. Never attempt to observe Mercury or anything close to the sun with a naked eye because it can cause permanent damage. And with binoculars or telescope it is even more dangerous. VENUS Venus is the second planet from the sun it is called the evening star because it can be seen by sunset and also by sunrise.

...who looks after her husband and their home. But as you read on, Steinbeck uses symbols that give deeper insight to Elisa, her marriage, and her feelings. It is realized that there is more to Elisa than initially thought. Elisa is sexually repressed and held captive by a male dominated society that thinks of women as nothing more than mothers and housekeepers. The first significant symbol is the discussion of the weather. Steinbeck describes the winter fog, and how it sits over the valley like a lid on a pot (para 1). This can be seen as a metaphor to describe Elisa feeling trapped in her boring life. There is the mention of the sun shining around the area, on the fields nearby, but no sun in the valley where Elisa lives. The sun is generally associated with warmth and happiness. The fact that it is not present in Elisa’s environment symbolizes that she isn’t happy. The most obvious of symbols is the chrysanthemums. The chrysanthemums are representation of Elisa’s being. She is isolated in the valley; there are no neighbors to speak of. Her husband, his ranch-hand and their dogs are the only people around. She takes pride in her chrysanthemums. This is obvious in the way she cares for them. She is meticulous in the way she trims each plant, killing any creature that may do them harm and prevent their growth. Even though Elisa gets immense pleasure from her flowers, they are still not enough to contain her nature. This is reflected when Steinbeck says “even her work with the scissors...

...years the state of California has been suffering from a drought that has left behind many farmers in the dust with their fallowed crops. The Central Valley, located in the heart of California, is home to a vast variety of crops that feed the world. The valley has taken the blunt of the hit caused by the recent drought as many farmers have received zero allocations of their contracted water along with many water wells drying up. The lack of water not only has an affect on farmers but anyone else that enjoys the succulent foods that articulate from California’s farms. As the lack of rainfall has had an influence on the current shortage of water, it is not the only factor contributing to it. “In 2009, the department of Fish and Wildlife ordered restrictions on the water run-off, which began the now six-year-old policy of sending billions of gallons of fresh water annually into the Pacific Ocean” (Hill). With California’s extensive need for water, legislation needs to transpire in order to use what precipitation we do receive to be allocated effectively and efficiently. California has been known for many substantial reasons, ranging from the Gold Rush of 1849 to its beautiful coast line that attracts many tourists. One important piece that always seems to be overlooked is the agricultural industry that thrives in the Central Valley. California produces much of the nations food; 99 percent of walnuts, 97 percent of kiwis, 97 percent of plums, 95 percent of celery, 95 percent of garlic...

The next step was to get lost in a series of valleys, hidden behind those mountains. In other parts of India, the name Kashmir resembles a dangerous place. Even though Srinagar is full of army, I never felt out of place. In fact, after crossing Srinagar and Anantnag, army presence is less, especially in tourist places. I got aware that the security threat is a little over hyped in Kashmir. Still the reluctant part of me was cautious, but one part of me could not wait to explore more of the valley. We reached the literal ‘priceless’ home (because of the act which prohibits sale of properties) of our beautiful host. I knew everything would be safe, but I could not completely let go of the possibility of an attack or sudden disturbance which might compel me to cancel all plans and stuck there itself. Pahalgam looked like it’s stuck and still struggling between being a tourist attraction and a traveler’s...
