- 8861: Pride And Prejudice
- ... is one of complete disgust. “She is tolerable; but not handsome enough to tempt me; and I am in no humour at present to give consequence to young ladies slighted by other men.” From Darcy’s reaction, we can only imagine what he really thinks of Elizabeth, but we are given a very good idea. This is not love at first sight, there is no attraction between the two, there is ... become worst enemies, in fact they seem to become anything but a couple in love, which is exactly what they end up to be. Soon after their original meeting at the ball, Elizabeth and Darcy’s paths cross again. This time it is at the home of the Bingleys where Darcy is staying, and where Elizabeth comes to visit Jane, her ill sister. When Darcy see her this time, his reaction ... find it hard to believe that his impression of Elizabeth could change so drastically within a matter of days. Elizabeth, on the other hand, has a more reasonable reaction. She made no notice of Darcy’s reaction. “perfectly unaware; to her he was only the man who had made himself agreeable nowhere, and who had not thought her handsome enough to dance with.(pg.22)” Elizabeth’s reaction is believable. ...
- 8862: A Farewell To Arms - Response
- ... reader? Will I ever finish them all? What will I do if I tire of reading?] When I finished FTA I was of course stunned by the death of Catherine and the baby and Henry's sudden solitude. "What happens now?" I felt, as I so often do when I finish a book that I want to go on forever. This is infinitely more difficult with a book that has no ... topic for my class presentation that I know many people see that the unfairness of life and the insignificance of our free will are apparently the most important themes in the book, but I don't agree. I also don't agree that it is a war story or a love story. Exactly what it is, though, is not clear to me. Can't art exist without being anything? "There isn't always an explanation ...
- 8863: A Tour of the Pentium Pro Processor Microarchitecture
- A Tour of the Pentium Pro Processor Microarchitecture Introduction One of the Pentium Pro processor's primary goals was to significantly exceed the performance of the 100MHz Pentium processor while being manufactured on the same semiconductor process. Using the same process as a volume production processor practically assured that the Pentium ... enabled the first Pentium Pro processor silicon to exceed the original performance goal. Building from an already high platform The Pentium processor set an impressive performance standard with its pipelined, superscalar microarchitecture. The Pentium processor's pipelined implementation uses five stages to extract high throughput from the silicon - the Pentium Pro processor moves to a decoupled, 12-stage, superpipelined implementation, trading less work per pipestage for more stages. The Pentium Pro ... the Pentium Pro processor can have a 33% higher clock speed than a Pentium processor and still be equally easy to produce from a semiconductor manufacturing process (i.e., transistor speed) perspective. The Pentium processor's superscalar microarchitecture, with its ability to execute two instructions per clock, would be difficult to exceed without a new approach. The new approach used by the Pentium Pro processor removes the constraint of linear ...

- 8865: Central America
- ... America is located close to the United States in relation to the Eastern Hemisphere, our ways of life are indescribably different. When we discuss Poverty in the United States many of us, including myself, don't really know what 'poverty' is. It seems like only a select few are afflicted by it here and programs like Welfare and Food Stamps (with varying degrees of success) seem to lessen the effects. In ... leads some to rebellion. Some have taken a path of Passive rebellion. This can be seen in literature and popular music which questions the government. Others exercise their right to vote (even if it doesn't really matter because the results are fraudulently attained). For example, "the 1974, 1978, and 1982 presidential elections in Guatemala were all fraudulently manipulated by military regimes "(Pg 109, Booth and Walker). Others take a more ... situation that combines all these ideas happened not too long ago in Nicaragua. All the hardships discussed earlier were present : extreme poverty, corrupt government, and worsening of conditions, driving many to rebellion. The early 70's was a time where, unions were repressed, wages were set by the military regime, inflation was 10%, and 13% of the working class was un/under employed (compared to 5-6% in the United ...
- 8866: A Comparison Of Two Poems About Soldiers Leaving Britain To
- ... departing later in the war. This poem was written a few years after "Joining The Colours". The mood of each occasion is different because "Joining The Colours" was written when the soldiers and their relative's thought that the war would be over by Christmas but instead it finished much later on and millions of soldiers got killed. The mood in "The Send Off" is totally different because the soldiers were ... going to a wedding day". In stanza 2 the soldiers "are singing like the lark". In stanza 3 they make noises with "whistles, mouth-organs". The soldiers are carefree because they are brave. They don't understand how dangerous war is because they are too young. They are not serious, they feel as if they are going to a celebration. When the soldiers leave there are many people celebrating their bravery ... moment for them but they might not realize how bad it is because this is the first time that war ever happened to them. We feel sorry for them because many of their sons won't come back. The second group of people mentioned in this poem are those who are standing at the roadside watching.

- 8867: Human Behaviours And Society
- Human Behaviours And Society Throughout the years, men’s and women’s behaviors have been defined with certain specific characteristics that make a difference between them. Moreover, these kinds of distinctions have been made according to scientific research in human mental and biological functions and responses to stimuli. However, nowadays there have emerged some kinds of male and female behavioral stereotypes created by society. In fact, if men and women don’t follow this sort of social conceptions, they won’t be part of society. Thus, it can be seen that social stereotypes of masculinity and feminity, not male and female biology, control human behavior. Society ...
- 8868: Immortal Beloved

- 8869: Uniform Chaos
- ... With this announcement, Oedipus is aware that his pursuit for order has led to a life of chaos. The central thesis is that the presumption of order establishes physical, intellectual, and spiritual chaos. The text's reference to the sphinx, Oedipus, and Tiresias creates this notion. These three literal signifiers are the metaphoric symbolizers of physical, intellectual, and spiritual chaos. The concept of physical chaos is first introduced during the first speech of the priest when reference is made to the "harsh singer" (Madden 37), the sphinx. In greek mythology, the sphinx is recognised as a hybrid creature with a woman's head, a lion's body, an eagle's wings, and a serpent's tail. In reality, "the virgin with the crooked talons" (Madden 48), is a unique archetype for many things in one single being. The sphinx is ...

He was the ruler of his domain, uncontested by any other local dogs. he was a mix between a St. Bernard and a Scotch Shepherd dog. He weighed one hundred and forty pounds, and ... one with utmost pride. Buck had everything he could want. Little did he know, he would soon have it all taken away from him. One night, while the judge was away at a raisin grower’s committee meeting, the gardener, Manuel, took Buck away from his home. Buck was then sold, and thrown in a baggage car. This would be the beginning of a new, cruel life for Buck. On his ride to wherever he was going, Buck’s pride was severely damaged, if not completely wiped out by men who used tools to restrain him. No matter how many times Buck tried to lunge, he would just be choked into submission at ...
