- 7981: Animal Farm 4
- ... are used by Orwell to represent the proletariat, or unskilled labor class in Russian society. This lower class is naturally drawn to Stalin (Napoleon) because it seems as though they will benefit most from his new system. Since Boxer and the other low animals are not accustomed to the "good life," they can't really compare Napoleon's government to the life they had before under the czars (Jones). Muriel: Muriel ... had given him a tail to keep the flies off but that he would sooner have had no tails and no flies. Mollie: She is one of the animal who is most opposed to the new government under Napoleon. She doesn't care much about the politics of the whole situation; she just wants to tie her hair with ribbons and eat sugar, things her social status won't allow. She ... calls all animals to a secret meeting. He tells them about his dream of a revolution against the cruel Mr. Jones. Three days later Major dies, but the speech gives the more intelligent animals a new outlook on life. The pigs, who are considered the most intelligent animals, instruct the other ones. During the period of preparation two pigs can distinguish themselves, Napoleon and Snowball. Napoleon is big, and although ...

- ... Globalization Adult community education is an important aspect for attracting large number of customers towards OCC. The needs of the target market should be assessed through subjective surveys regarding the communities wants and interests and new courses should be added to the curriculum. Also, an objective survey of local businesses should be done to know their needs and their knowledge regarding present growing technology. Information should be given on how their ... various ways to attract variety of students for enrollment. Providing what consumers need at an increasingly lower prices to establish long-term customer relationships in a profitable manner wherever these customers may be in the world, often requires working with other organizations, employing new technologies in new and different ways, and being sensitive to social and ethical considerations. The combination of good teaching and easy accessibility gives customers real value.

- ... a centralized monarchy. The colonists believe power should flow up from the people to the rulers. The British believe power should flow down from the King to the subjects. The two different uses of the world power also change the tone of the document. The colonist's definition of power as coercive in the hands of the King and good in the hands of civil authorities identifies the King as the ... more than just grammatical significance to the document.

Malcolms death didn t really end his views, his beliefs, and his way of achieving civil rights. The black Panthers were a group which were formed ... rights for the blacks.Armed with sincerity, the words of revolutionaries such as Malcolm X, law books, and rifles, The Black Panther Party fed the hungry, protected the weak from racist police, and presented a new paradigm of Black political and social activism. Founded in October 1966 by Bobby Seale and Huey P. Newton in Oakland, Ca., the Party grew to at least 5,000 members nationwide, with chapters in ...

- ... she came to America. Her father could not afford to buy her bridal linens so he decided to arrange for her to marry Anthony Angeluzzi, his friend’s son. Anthony was living and working in New York and would be willing and able to give Lucia Santa a good life. Reluctantly she agreed to marry a man she only knew as a young child. Together they had three children; Lorenzo, Octavia ... other women on the street offered Lucia Santa help, but soon after the pity and condolences they turned their backs on her, except for one, Zia Louche. As a pregnant widow Lucia Santa with her new wiser eyes got past her misfortunes and married her second husband Frank Corbo. Frank was an older man that had never been married; he had a good job and was willing to care for Lucia ... for long periods of time. Each time he would return with having earned enough money so that they would not have to struggle to make ends meet. However, on his last trip he returned a new man.

- ... slides past another—as at the San Andreas Fault in California, North America's most quake-prone area—or is subducted (slides beneath the other plate). “Subduction-zone quakes account for nearly half of the world's destructive seismic events and 75 percent of the earth's seismic energy. They are concentrated along the so-called Ring of Fire, a narrow band about 38,600 km (about 24,000 mi) long ... Day 1988) Other potential clues being investigated are tilting or bulging of the land surface and changes in the earth's magnetic field, in the water levels of wells, and even in animal behavior. A new method under study in the U.S. involves measuring the buildup of stress in the crust of the earth. “On the basis of such measurements the U.S. Geological Survey, in April 1985, predicted that ... Andreas fault, near Parkfield, California, sometime before 1993.”(Day 1988) Many unofficial predictions of earthquakes have also been made. In 1990 a zoologist, Dr. Iben Browning, warned that a major quake would occur along the New Madrid fault before the end of the year. Like most predictions of this type, it proved to be wrong. “Groundwater has also played an important part in earthquake predictions. A peak in radon in ...
- 7988: What Is Physics and What Are Its Uses?
- ... physics. Doctors are now able to use lasers for surgery. Lasers are based on the physical principle of light, and are devices for the creation and amplification of a narrow, intense beam of coherent light. New laser microsurgery can actually alter the shape of the cornea in the eye so the patient's eyesight can return to normal, and he/she will no longer need those bothersome glasses. Ultrasound is used ... destroying various unwanted substances in the body such as kidney stones. Ultrasound uses sound waves to dissolve these foreign bodies. If not for physics, ultrasounds would never have been discovered and utilized. MRI scans, another new discovery, are able to show a complete three dimensional picture of the interior structure of the body, and are extremely valuable in hospitals. These scans are based on the principles of electromagnetism, and the phenomenon ... even light. Physics help to understand the dark matter of the universe, because it applies theories to what the dark matter is. We are also able to look at distant spots in the universe with new telescopes because of the principles of magnification and amplification of light. Not only can physics better your baseball game and explain the dark matter of the universe, but it can save lives. It remains ...
- 7989: Superconductivity
- ... would pull him and the following one would push. There was no chance of getting lost. Since the lattice was cooled, there was less vibration making it easier for the paired electrons to go through. NEW MATERIAL That theory worked well for the conventional, metallic, low-temperature superconducting materials. But later on, new materials were discovered. It conducted at temperatures never before dreamed possible. That material was ceramic. What was believed to be an insulator became a superconductor. The latest Ceramic material discovered superconducts at 125 Kelvin. This is still far away from room temperature but now, liquid nitrogen could be used. It is much cheaper than the rare, expensive liquid Helium. Scientists still don't know how the new superconductivity works. Some scientists have suggested that the new ceramics are new kinds of metals that carry electrical charges, not via electrons, but through other charged particles. PROBLEMS / SOLUTIONS Throughout the time, scientists have ...
- 7990: A Perfect Day For Bananafish
- ... probably extremely important to consider why the main character, Seymour Glass, decided to commit suicide. What I believe to be the reason for Seymour s suicide has two basic components: the spiritual depravity of the world around him, and his struggle with his own spiritual shortcomings. The spiritual problem of the outside world is mostly a matter of material greed, especially in the west, and materialism. On the other hand, his own spiritual problem is more a matter of intellectual greed and true spiritualism. In addressing the suicide, the difference should be distinguished between the "See More Glass" that we see through little Sybil s eyes, and the Seymour Glass that we see through the eyes of the adult world. Even though these two characters are in theory the same man, they are slightly different in some ways. You could also say that they are the same character in different stages of development. Whatever ...
