...Fern Hill Summary "Fern Hill" is six stanzas of praising and then lamenting days the speaker spent at Fern Hill as a youth. And this speaker is stoked about running through the countryside. Throughout the poem, he talks about how happy he was as a youngster and how oblivious he was that youth was passing. But at the end of the poem, the tone shifts dramatically from joy to lamentation. It's almost like singing, "If you're happy and you know it, think again!" What was a carefree bliss for the speaker turns out to be a fleeting joy that he ever can't recapture. What a bummer. Stanza 1 Summary Get out the microscope, because we’re going through this poem line-by-line. Lines 1-2 Now I was young and easy under the apple boughs About the lilting house and happy as the grass was green * Welcome to Fern Hill, where the speaker was once young and carefree. Plus, apple trees. Sounds like a great place to Shmoop. * He also hung out in his "lilting house." What in the world is a lilting house, you ask? Well, lilting is an old school style of Gaelic singing, but it can refer to anything with a cheerful, happy tone. * So was the house singing? Well, maybe not literally, but with this personification, the speaker is setting the mood for the rest of the poem. Things are good. * He's young, happy, and the pastoral scenery is like a mirror of the speaker's joy. Lines 3-5 The night above the dingle starry, Time let me hail and climb Golden in the heydays of his eyes...

...Summary September 11th played a pivotal part in United States history. The U.S economy was in a era that movement towards a better economy was inevitable. Daniel Yergin explained, “Up until September 11, there was a sense that with the crisis and the risks, that nevertheless this movement towards globalization really was irreversible. And since then there's a recognition of that you can't turn back the clock; we're not going to abolish e-mail, or computers aren't going to get slower, but things can go in another direction. Markets do best and work best and deliver what they can do during times of peace. And if you're not in a time of peace, but you're in some other kind of time, then things won't work as well, and priorities will be elsewhere as well (Commanding Heights)”. The United States was about to go into a recession and President Bush wanted to rebuild an economy that will put the United States back to economic freedom. Bush had a plan and want to seek out new ventures to make his plan come to life. “Out of the sorrow of September 11, I see opportunity, a chance for nations to strengthen and rethink and reinvigorate their relationships. When nations open their markets to the world, they find in America a trading partner, an investor, and a friend (Commanding Heights)”, Bush explained. He wanted to make sure that the world would have confidence in America, but technology was a barrier that couldn’t be suppressed. Richard Cheney explained it as, “ I don't think there...

...Imagery in Hamlet Hamlet is one of the most widely read works of literature. It's an exploration of the multifaceted world of adolescence. This world is full of confusion, thoughtfulness, intimacy, and action. It's a study in how a young person emerging into adulthood attempts to cope. In Hamlet, Shakespeare allows his hero to dream and to think through his dreams (Williams). Hamlet is a revenge tragedy and by the end, almost every character has died in some tragic or gruesome way. In this play, Shakespeare makes use of imagery, allegory, metaphor, and symbolism. In particular, the symbols of the ghost, the garden, and flowers, along with imagery and metaphors for madness are used to convey specific ideas which provide depth and complexity to this story. The ghost is a pivotal symbol and appears throughout Hamlet. Is the ghost Hamlet's father or is it Hamlet himself? Is the ghost real or is it part of Hamlet's imagination? The ghost claims he is Hamlet's father. He says he was murdered by Claudius, Hamlet's Uncle who is now wed to Hamlet's mother and who is also sitting on the throne. He also says his sins must be wiped clean before he can ascend to heaven. His soul is "doomed" to endure "sulph'rous and tormenting flames" until the "foul crimes done in [his] days of nature / Are burnt and purged away" (1.5.6; 17-18). The ghost requires revenge and this is an odd request given the religious context, yet this is what sets the revenge plot in motion. Father's Ghost. My hour...

...A former pitcher, now unemployed takes a job as a caretaker for a wealthy couple, but when their teenage daughter goes missing, he’s a suspect. STORY COMMENTS BACKWATER presents as an engaging dramatic, mystery-thriller. The tone is tense and mysterious. Visual storytelling is well crafted. There’s nice subtext in the opening image of Adam and Eve, as well as the serpent. Later the “Eden” sign solidifies the theme. Clearly the family is entering into what looks like paradise, but possible temptations may lead to a serpent emerging. The opening teaser sets the tone and mystery. Just make sure to label the transition in time from the opening to when it flashes back, as not to confuse the audience. The first act does a good job of establishing...

Atticus Finch, a lawyer and leader of Maycomb, defends Tom Robinson, a black man wrongly accused of Rape. Social inequality will never change, though it can be a hardship it simply will not go away because minds aren’t easily swayed, the natural opinion that one is better than another, and the demand of one group to conform to the dominant group. To begin with, Civil discrimination starts in the mind; this mind does not have to be one of poor thoughts or strong thoughts, either can be tainted by prejudice.

...Overall, the crime scene sequence should be tightened. Also, the speech by the Senator slows down the pace. Consider cutting or shortening. Remember don’t make it easy for Jude. Make him work to get the information. Make him investigate and make him overcome obstacles along the way. The flash drive might be too easy for him to have vs. finding where the key belongs and maybe the flash drive is locked up. By the end of the first act, Jude should clearly have an objective or goal that locks him in, such as unraveling the mystery. Right now as structured, he doesn’t feel locked into a goal yet. He wants information, but there isn’t a decisive first act break. The tension is rather mild too. Find ways to elevate the tension. Maybe someone breaks into his apartment looking for the key etc. This could be what locks Stevens into his goal. Enhance the tone to sound more suspenseful. Maybe after he leaves the police department (after seeing Ross), he thinks someone is following...

Use additional resources if necessary, from the University Library or your textbooks. Provide citations for all the sources you use. Response: Well, there could be numerious reasons why Hispanics are not doing good. From prior experience in the Interactive Scenario’s city, in that area where education isn’t a prime, it is obvious that people will not get a great job or a legal job. Being that there’s such a small community of Hispanics in the area and that of it being a legitimate worker or a cut above the the average person in Philadelphia, it’s small. That, and being the jobs are scarced already in the area where they could pay good enough money that doesn’t just make ends meet. Part II Answer the following in 50 to 150 words each.

Dave believes that apathy does exist and people do care, however he believes that we live in a world that discourages involvement and puts obstacles in the way to further prevent and discourage that involvement. He gives many examples of the obstacles and barriers that he mentioned. He uses an ad as his first example.

...How to Write an Executive Summary: Why Write It? Investors, lenders, executives, managers and CEOs are busy. Always. That means that the executive summary is an essential gateway for your business plan to get read. Think about it this way: if you had an endless list of things to do, and someone handed you an 80-page document and said "read this! you'd probably first want to know why. "The most important reason to include an executive summary is that in many cases, it is the only thing the reader will read," says Pablo Bonjour, founder & CEO of Katy, Texas-based SMG Business Plans, a company that offers entrepreneurs assistance in writing business plans. According to Bonjour, investors will read the executive summary to decide if they will even bother reading the rest of the business plan. It's rare for an investor or lender to read an entire business plan, at least in the initial stages of analysis and consideration for funding, so having a strong executive summary is key. When you're writing your business plan, your goal is to get your foot in the door and face-time with the investor. "Assuming that your business is a good fit for the investor, a strong executive summary will get you invited in for a meeting," Hirai says. "A poor executive summary will leave you standing in the cold."
