...Bound to True Love Sharon Olds’ Poem “True Love” takes the reader through several levels and scenarios of expression to explain what loves means to her. She uses actual words and metaphors to explain the “love” and care she has for her husband. Olds uses the word “bound” throughout her poem to insinuate that she is trapped in the relationship with her husband. The use of the word “bound” might have a negative connotation in this poem, but the speaker gives the impression that she loves her husband to a certain degree. While she never mentions the length of their marriage, one can sense that they are not newlyweds. Some might read this poem and get the impression that the speaker feels stuck (trapped) in her relationship with her husband while some readers may feel differently. The speaker starts by saying, “In the middle of the night, when we get up after making love, we look at each other in complete friendship, we know so fully what the other has been doing” (1-4). This suggests that, when a couple is in love one, they must build a friendship. This is why the speaker states, that when she looks at her husband, she knows exactly where he has been, right there with her. While they make love and still respect one another, they become as one. Further, they were bound to each other as she states, “bound to each other like mountaineers coming down from a mountain” (4-5), just like a code of ethics between the two mountaineers, through team work the mountain was climbed. They are...

SMART objectives are: ! • • • • • ! Here are some tips for ensuring that your objectives are SMART: ! SPECIFIC Specific – states exactly what you need to achieve Measurable – includes a quality or quantity measure Achievable – You have the resources, time, opportunity and support to succeed Realistic – can be challenging but must be achievable and relevant to your role Time bound – with a clear end date or timescale Objectives should clearly state what you are expected to achieve, using action verbs to describe what has to be done. For example: • Not specific: Encourage more people to join the Sports Centre • Specific: Increase membership of the Sports Centre • Not specific: Conduct research • Specific: Formulate plans for research on topic X ! MEASURABLE Objectives should include a quality and/or quantity reference so that you can measure whether or not you have achieved them. For example: • Not measurable: Increase membership of the Sports Centre • Measurable: Increase membership of the Sports Centre by 10% • Not measurable: Formulate plans for research on topic X • Measurable: Formulate plans for research on topic X and submit grant...

...One of the biggest adjustments in my life thus far is transitioning from high school to college. Most of you are aware, it’s a difficult transition. From living on my own, to the rigorous courses, it is not facile. Among those challenging courses is English 1301; an undeniable accommodation from the expectation in high school English. English 1301 is the first semester of freshman English and is designed to promote critical thinking, reading, and writing. The concept of appeals is important when it comes to writing, the following appeals are observant in our everyday lives; pathos, logos, and ethos. In this essay, I will demonstrate the time I successfully joined a college readiness program at UTA; known as Upward Bound. Upward Bound is a federally funded organization sponsored by The University of Texas at Arlington. The club was created fifty years ago, and has expanded immensely over the years. Upward Bound was founded in 1965 by the U.S Department of Education. This program equips students all around the country with the necessarily tools to succeed during and after high school. Upward Bound allows ages 14-18 take advantage of their...

...We Are Bound for the Promised Land Back in the old days, the communities were a lot more conservative. Every father was the head of the family. Many people lived in small towns, and had farms. Almost everybody knew each other, in each town, and everybody knew if something big had happened, or if something was worth knowing. There were a much bigger difference between boys and girls, and it was not normal to play boys and girls, like it is now. In the text, We Are Bound for the Promised Land, we see some of these points, and we learn about how life was, for a girl named Eilean, back in the days. In the text, We Are Bound for the Promised Land, we meet a girl named Eilean MacLeod. Eilean is a girl living in a small town with her mother, her father and her two sisters. She helps out her family, by feeding the chickens and the cow, wearing a little apron over her dress. Eilean goes to school every day, and has to friends named Angus and Lewis. Angus and Lewis are to boys, and Eilean father is not very happy about that. He wants Eilean to be “normal”, and have friends who are girls, instead of boys. Eilean is the youngest in her family, and is not treated very well, by anybody else, but her mother. Her father is very strict, and at one point he hits her so hard, she falls to the ground. Her mother loves her, but there is nothing she can do, because se does not want the father to get mad. It’s obvious that the father is the head of the family. Eilean seems very quiet, but she isn’t...

...CHAPTER 5 – ARRAYS CASE STUDY SCENARIO Sorting Data A dozen umbrellas lie on the ground just inside the classroom door when Dr. Taylor begins his lecture. “A cold, rainy day like today makes me want to stay in and order pizza for delivery rather than go out myself.” Handing a phone book to a student in the front row, Dr. Taylor says “Gail, please look up the phone number for Domino’s Pizza on Main Street, and if you don’t mind, I will time how long it takes you to find the number.” Gail flips through a few pages while Dr. Taylor looks at his watch. “Here it is . . . 555-8275,” she says. “Seven seconds. Thank you Gail.” Dr. Taylor presses some keys on his cell phone while continuing his conversation. “Now please look up the name of the person with the phone number 555-5982, and again I will time you.” Dr. Taylor’s focus returns to his watch even as he speaks into the phone. Gail slowly flips a couple of pages, then stops just about the same time Dr. Taylor ends his call. “I assure you the number is in there, Gail. We will wait while you look it up.” “You will probably wait a long time,” she says, “because there is no fast way to find a number.” “Why not? It’s the same data.” “But the phone book is sorted by names, so finding a name is easy. Finding a number is very difficult because a phone book is not sorted by numbers.” Dr. Taylor takes the phone book from Gail. “Exactly! The sorting process does not change the data, but it organizes the data in a context,...

...We are Bound for the Promised Land The extract text from A. E. Watterson’s novel ‘We are Bound for the Promised Land’ is about Eilean who is a young girl. She lives with her parents and her two sisters Mary and Fiona. The sisters and Eilean work on the farm with their mother, while the father is a priest. The family is a very traditional and religious family. A priest is a person who works at the church and helps people, listens to them and talks to them about there’s personal or religious problems. You can describe a priest as a soft and gentle person. Eilean’s father doesn’t act kind and gentle at home. He is very dominant and everything has to be like he wishes at home. “There are no buts about it. It needs to be done.” There is no place for the other family member’s opinions, they have to follow the father’s order and ask him for permission. Everyone in the family obey the father except Eilean. She is the most individual person in the family who goes against her father. In page three of the text ‘We are Bound for the Promised Land’ Angus describes Eilean and Lewis as cowards, but Eilean tells him that she is not a coward and not afraid. She promises to take with them to the beach at a Sunday, to prove that she is not a coward or afraid. Angus and Lewis are Eilean’s friends. They spent time together and her father doesn’t like it. “Katie MacInnes and her friends are lovely girls, you should try to be a bit more like them”. He says. The father doesn’t like that his...

...“... However as autism is a hidden disability, when I am out dealing with the public things can be really tough. Quite often I get tutted at by cashiers as I fumble about trying to find my wallet. I notice the eye rolling as I take longer than most to pack my shopping, and get accused of being rude when I don’t say thank you to someone for waiting for me so I could go past (I don’t always realize that is what they are doing!). I have been followed in shops by staff and security guards, possibly because I look “shifty” and suspicious, or because at 4’9″ I look like an average 11-14 year old!... One day, queuing up to buy something, I got into a muddle again, dropping everything and getting anxious about holding up the people behind me. The cashier smiled at me and said “Don’t rush darling, you’re OK.” I looked up, smiled and said “thank you.” Much more slowly, and more accurately, I pulled out my purse, paid and packed my shopping away. I was shocked, but this time in a good way! I have noticed other things too. People laughing at me from afar (a common occurrence) who then spot my badge as they get closer will look super embarrassed. I get less passive aggressive “huffing” from fellow shoppers as I make social faux pas left right and center, and less horrified staring as I jump up and down and squeal because I get overexcited...

...2012 CFB Does anyone of you know when the earliest women’s high heels form appears? You probably think of 18s or 19s. NO. It’s 1100 years ago from China which was Song dynasty. Don’t think that was too old because it’s the basic form of women’s high heels, and it became so popular once ever. Think about what high heels do for women, all it does is to make you look pretty. But today I am not going to talk about the women’s high heels; I am going to talk about the Chinese foot-binding, what cause it and what it affects. They have similar function but it’s different. High heels are the shoes of the foot, but the foot-binding is changing your foot’s shape as a high heel. You see the difference, one is shoes and one is foot. Chinese foot- binding started during song dynasty, it is a Chinese custom of wrapping women's feet with 10 feet long bandages in order to stop them from growing with age, (picture, some women went even further, turn their feet into only 3 inches long which we call it “three-inch golden lotuses.”) and give them pretty look back then. But it has caused severe life- long disability for many millions of elder women, and even in recent years. Why Chinese women want their feet to be bounded? First of all, obviously any husband doesn’t want his wife run away, if a husband hitting his wife that she couldn’t ran away because it’s very difficult to run with bounded feet. Second, having a wife like that, it’s a status symbol for men. It means you are able to let your wife...

...With the given information, (The correlation coefficient is r=.792), and by looking at the scatter plot, you can see that it is mostly straight with no outliers and that it is positive, (the scatterplot runs from the lower left to the upper right). The method of least squares is a formula, (yﰀ = b0 + b1x), that is used to determine how well a line fits a certain set of data. To start, you would need to insert the data onto lists L1 and L2. List all values for age in L1 and all values for Price advertised in L2. To do this press STAT, EDIT, ENTER, and enter the data. L1 should be all x-values and L2 should be all y-values. Make sure your diagnostic is on by clicking 2nd catalog and scrolling down to DiagnosticOn, click ENTER twice. Next you would press STAT, move over one to CALC, and down eight to find LinReg(a+bx). Press 2nd, 1, comma, 2nd, 2 and then ENTER. This will tell the calculator to use L1 and L2 as your x and y. Now you should have your answers r=.944 and r^2=.891 What do you do with a lurking...

...Number each step and include a description of each step. Be sure to include the events of each step and any environmental conditions that are required or determine the action of the molecules involved. (15 pts.) Note: You must use the table below for your answers. While you do not need to use every row, YOU CAN NOT CREATE MORE ROWS. Transferrin without Fe bound does not interact with its receptor and circulates in the bloodstream until it catches an Fe ion. Once iron is bound, the iron–transferrin complex can bind to the transferrin receptor on the surface of a cell and be endocytosed. under the acidic conditions of the endosome, the transferrin releases its iron, but the transferrin remains bound to the transferrin receptor, which is recycled back to the cell surface, where it encounters the neutral pH environment of the blood. The neutral pH causes the receptor to release the transferrin into the circulation, where it can pick up another Fe ion to repeat the cycle. The iron released in the endosome, like the LDL in Figure 15–33, moves on to lysosomes, from where it is transported into the cytosol. The system allows cells to take up iron efficiently even though the concentration of iron in the blood is extremely low. The iron bound to transferrin is concentrated at the cell surface by binding to transferrin receptors; it becomes further concentrated in clathrincoated pits, which collect the transferrin receptors. In this way, transferrin cycles between...
