Why the protagonist remains unnamed?

The protagonist remains unnamed for two reasons. (1) The protagonist remaining unnamed creates a separation for the narrator. The narrator returns for a funeral, but he does not appear to want to interact with anyone. He then walks over to Hempstock Farm where he sees Lettie’s mom. The narrator begins remembering events that happened when he was 7. Since most of the book takes place as a memory it would make sense that the protagonist would remain unnamed because most people do not refer to themselves by their name in memories. (2) Names are power, when the antagonist ...

Seemingly, Malcolm Gladwell believes that working for a famous company or attending an elite college may terminate a person’s dreams. The famous author uses the analogy of a big fish in a small pond in his latest book, “David and Goliath,” to overturn conventional notions regarding who should be an underdog and what makes for a disadvantage.

Accordingly, the popular author, outlines that choosing something elite translates to accept to be like a little fish living in a big pond. ...

Summary and Annotation

Putting Walden’s philosophy and that of Henry David Thoreau, it is easy to notice the interconnectedness of their philosophies and their practicality. Both use metaphors that in the end become a philosophic system. Walden speaks about the relationship between man and his environment. Thoreau on the other hand demonstrates that human beings can overcome struggle that exists between the self and the society but then, nothing can be trusted if proof is not offered, “No way of thinking or doing, however ancient, can be trusted without proof.”(Hamby 1). These try to bring out meaning of the inherent things ...

Abstract

Solid waste and wastewater are primary sources of pollution from food processing industries. The wastewaters usually contain high suspended solids, organic starch and sugars that may contain toxic substances to the environment. Solid wastes come from organic materials while the mechanical preparation processes need biological treatment before releases into the environment. When untreated, they find their way into other water plants like lakes and streams. Since they have higher nutrient content, they result of eutrophication of the water systems hence causing algal growth. It, therefore, compromises the stability of the aquatic ecosystems as the water quality is changed. It ...

Question 1

Introduction A contract is either forceable or unenforceable.For it to be enforceable and valid, it has to meet certain elements: offer, intention to create legal relations, acceptance, and consideration (Beale, 2002).

However, several reasons ensure that a contract cannot be enforced: duress, misrepresentation, unfair terms and undue influence. In the facts given, each person has their merits, strengths and weaknesses. To analyze the position Steve is in and whether he stands to win any legal action brought against, each case will be analyzed separately, giving the merits ...

The area chosen for analysis of the acid rain effect is New Hampshire. Fig. 1 shows the effect of acid rain in Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest.

Abstract

Risky behavior contributes to the maladaptive behavior of psychopathic individuals. However, the results gotten from a group of psychopathic individuals in an experiment using the Levenson Self-Report Psychopathy (LSRP) and the Angler’s Risk Task (ART) to evaluate their decision making has been equivocal. Different factors of psychopathy may be suitable to explain the findings. We examined the relationship between primary, secondary psychopathy and the performance based on the methods used. Impulsivity was also added to find out its effect as a moderator. In a combined model of the interactions and effects of primary, secondary psychopathy and impulsivity, only secondary psychopathy ...

“The Tyger” – William Blake

“Haiku” – Matsuo Basho r-p-o-p-h-e-s-s-a-g-r – e.e. cumings Over the centuries human civilization has tended to have an exploitative relationship with nature: we plunder the earth for old, precious stone and minerals; we consume grain and fruit, nuts and berries; we kill wildlife – sometimes for food but also for pleasure. Humankind has also meddled in nature – genetically-modified crops are simply the latest example, since before them skilled horticulturalists have for centuries produced hybrid plants for practical or aesthetic purposes. The popularity of zoos and wildlife parks demonstrates our fascination with the other species that inhabit our world. Poets have ...

Culture is a set of traditions, habits, values, and norms that a group of people share. That is as basic as definition goes. What it implies though is that culture is intricate, deeply-rooted in a person or nation's psyche, and is quite definitive of a people group's identity. Unfortunately for the outsider, like an entire language to be learned, a group of people's culture takes tremendous amount of time to learn - a lifetime would not be an exaggeration. But for the person who marries as foreigner, or for a merchant wanting to expand overseas, a lifetime is a little too long for such an endeavor. How ...

"Every morning was a cheerful invitation to make my life of equal simplicity, and I may say innocence, with Nature herself. I have been as sincere a worshipper of Aurora as the Greeks. I got up early and bathed in the pond; that was a religious exercise, and one of the best things which I did. They say that characters were engraven on the bathing tub of King Tching-thang to this effect: "Renew thyself completely each day; do it again, and again, and forever again." I can understand that. Morning brings back the heroic ages. I was as much affected by the ...

The exterior of the Metropolitan along 5th Avenue is a wide plaza with small areas with greenery, fountain and places to sit and relax. The plaza is being renovated so the usual effect of the large plaza leading into the well lit and airy lobby was not one hundred percent but it could still be felt. The two areas, internal and external seemed connected and moving for one space to the other seemed perfectly natural. The lobby/front hallway of the interior of the museum was so open and airy I felt very small and that the design was made to ...

Introduction

The null hypothesis for the experiment was that oxygen production is the same in both plants while the alternative hypothesis was that oxygen production and thus the rate of photosynthesis is higher in Ceratophyllum than in Cabomba due to its efficiency in carbon dioxide utilization (Kitaya, Murakami, & Takeuchi, 2003).

Materials and Methods

Experimental Design The research question to be answered in the experiment was whether there is rate difference, in oxygen production, in oxygen production between Ceratophyllum and Cabomba. It was predicted that each of the plants would have different oxygen production rates. The dependent variable was the rate in oxygen ...

Few issues today raise as much heated emotion as the subject of eugenics and bioengineering. Hardly a day goes by when we do not see Congressional hearings on the ethics of stem cell research or debate in the media over some proposal to expand to boundaries of our artificial reproductive technologies.

Aldous Huxley’s controversial book Brave New World introduced the possibility of selective breeding of human beings as far back as 1932 (Huxley, 1932). More recently in 1970, the book Future Shock by Alvin Toffler portrayed ...

Fishing until The Pond is empty

A resource dilemma can arise when a collection of people mutually control a band of resources, for instance, a community grazing land, a populace of fish or communal health services. Normally, the resource pool is occasionally replenished and produces a stable and protracted resource flow. The resource dilemma occurs when users are lured to consume above what the pool of resource can produce continually. Failure to control usage at a sustainable level would result to adverse effects on the resources, therefore, putting at danger any future benefits to the community. The case of the fishpond is tremendously significant concerning the resource dilemma and it would ...
