Summarize the article: The article spoke about the strong employment rate that seems to favor the second half of 2014 in the US. This was something that was not expected by the Feds. Thus, they have projected interest rate to be closer to zero to compensate for the declining economy and help somehow raise expenditure by encouraging consumers to borrow from the bank. However, in the wake ...

Discussion and Comparison of Laparoscopic and Open Surgical Inguinal Hernia Repair in Adults.

Abstract
There is an ever increasing number of hernia repair surgeries required likely due to decreasing levels of physical activity amongst young adults and concurrent muscle wastage in the abdomen. Time off from work, staffing issues at hospitals, and cost of hospital bed space are some of the issues associated with the high cost of open surgical methods. Wound infection, decreased mobility, and recurrence of the hernia are problems associated with all surgeries. The last thirty years has seen the advent of laparoscopy and minimally invasive techniques of surgical repair. These methods offer the promises of decreased surgical ...

Abstract

This paper clearly presents and defines the numerical study on how hollow building block operates to suppress the convectional currents and reduce the amount of heat flux transferred across the petition of the building wall. The configuration and weight of these blocks have made them to fully be utilized in building the facades. The air filled cavities (hollow cells) together with the small cross-sectional area geometry provides an appropriate elevation for the building block. The hollow polythene bars inserted in this bricks also helps to reduce the heat by about 36% depending on the petition number (Mejad 2006).

The Scrivener’

Perhaps the most sophisticated aspect of Melville’s story is in how effectively he lures the reader into focusing on the character of Bartleby. The scrivener’s inscrutability is oddly compelling and invites one to try and “understand” Bartleby, to fashion a diagnosis, even imagine a treatment or cure. But the story is about perspective itself, the perspective of the lawyer, who can only assess and try to make sense of his enigmatic clerk within the confines of his own singular world view. True, his is the ethic of Wall Street and the pragmatic rationalism that defines the class of people ...

Quality Assessment

Scanning technology (3D laser scanner technique) measures the dimension of a precast concrete panel using extraction algorithms to measure boundary points with a compensation model to increase measurement accuracy (Kim et al., 2013). 3D laser scanning converts CAD models into BIM, which identifies scanned objects by ensuring precision for rebar mapping before actual drilling as well as rebar detailing for installing rebar cages (Hajian & Brandow, 2012). Before shipping precast concrete elements, dimensional quality assurance (DQA) is carried out to ensure that there are no dimensional defects using a scanner in an automated process that saves time and labor input ( ...

Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s The Yellow Wallpaper places a woman into an insane Victorian environment for the purpose of demonstrating the insanity of the insanity of the Victorian Woman. It is an ingenious plan to “show” rather than “tell” the repercussions of a social construct that respected and repressed women at the same time.
Charlotte Perkins Gilman is one of the most intelligent of the early feminist writers. Having published over 200 writings, she blatantly blows the collar of Victorian imagery off the necks of women everywhere. When Gilman started writing, the role of women was to act “as ...

Melanomas are tumors that arise from the melanocytes or the pigment cells (Mihajlovic et al. 739). A common form of melanoma is the primary mucosal melanoma that is found in the mucosal lining of the urogenital tract, respiratory tract and the gastrointestinal tract (Mihajlovic et al. 739). Primary malignant vaginal melanoma is one such type of mucosal malignant melanoma that is very rare (Lin et al. 376) and very aggressive in nature (Androutsopoulos et al. 1). The first case of primary malignant vaginal melanoma was reported in 1887 and modern literature has noted about 500 cases, globally (Chen et ...

Introduction

There are numerous descriptions of drowning that are available and actually, all of them bear some weight. According to Lunette, G., et.al death by drowning is the consequence of a obstruction of respiration by impediment of mouth and nose by a liquid medium which is more often than not water (2004). Actually, there are many other drowning definitions wherein all have some accuracy. In regards to true drowning, there are relatively no considerable disagreements, since there is a general conduit, which involves the water inhalation, which could eventually pass through the alveolo-capillary membrane thus eventually reaching the general circulation ultimately. Characteristically, a difference ...

Self-reliance

“Be yourself; no base imitator of another, but your best self. There is something, which you can do better than another. Listen to the inward voice and bravely obey that. Do the things at which you are great, not what you were never made for.” (Emerson) (Nina et al, 1094)
In this quote, Emerson urges people to remain themselves at all times. He insists on people obeying their natural instincts, trusting in their intrinsic abilities and doing the things that they can do best. He believes that by so doing everyone will be able to rely in him/herself.

The story shows a woman brought to an “ancestral house” by her husband who is a physician, due to her nervous condition. She is convinced she is sick, but her husband doesn’t believe it is anything significant, instead explaining it as all in her head. Her husband insists she does nothing but rest, leaving her alone in a large upstairs room, which was once a nursery, while he is gone often overnight. She becomes seemingly obsessed with the wallpaper, and while at the beginning simply complains ...

The Dead is an intriguing masterpiece written by James Joyce and bases his storyline in Ireland during Christmas. Joyce invites the reader into his plot by his artistic description of things and scenery in his book.

Joyce writes that the snow covers both the dead and the living and unites them into a frozen paralysis (Joyce, 184). The story of the dead encapsulates Gabriel Conroy as viewing himself superior to others due to his intellectual capabilities as ...

“When we read Dickenswe are reading all sorts of other things at the same time—plot, character, moral dilemma, historical predicament, and so forth—but we can see all these in their full complexity only if we attend to the illuminating play of style” (Alter 1996). Indeed, Charles Dickens is a master of style and a versatile genius. He weaves magic with his words that takes the readers into a rapturous world of imagination. The power of his words and imagination manifested in his depiction of simple stories and building of characters make him one of the most popular English novelists of ...

August Wilson’s use of rhetoric devices

Most plays all over the world feature the work of August Wilson, a great play writer in the late twentieth century, who presented outstanding skills of utilizing literary devices appropriately. He received two Pulitzer drama prizes in two different decades to affirm his position as one of the greatest literacy minds (Gamerman 31). Having identified his career early, Wilson had to confront his family to allow him be a writer and not a lawyer as favoured by his mother and other family members. However, his zeal and commitment in writing make his material admirable whenever they come into use at any place. ...

Control Valves

A valve is a control device that is utilized in adjusting the flow rate of a fluid in a pipe (Doddannavar, Barnard, and Ganesh, 2005).

The valve comprises a flow passage in which the flow area can be varied. Operation of valves in most scenarios is manual. In cases where the valves are operated automatically, electromechanical actuators are used. The electromechanical actuators can include electric motors or pneumatic actuators that are motorized by air ...
