...Colour Symbolism in The Collector Colour plays a vitally important role throughout ‘The Collector’ in terms of how it manages to sway thinking and cause reactions. The use of colour in literature is particularly stimulating as it conveys meanings in two ways- natural associations and psychological symbolism, it is clear that Fowles has an acute understanding of how and why colours communicate meaning. With this understanding he uses colour symbolism in several different ways, the main two being; to emphasize obsession and to demonstrate how different the two main characters are. The reader is aware that Fredrick Clegg is an obsessive character instantly, his infatuation with Miranda is emphasized as he describes the fantasy life he daydreamed about in which she is ‘all pretty with her pale blonde hair and grey eyes and of course the other men all green round the gills.’ Colour symbolism here is used in several ways; firstly, ‘green round the gills’ meaning jealous, illustrates the longing Clegg feels to be superior and envied, perhaps because he has felt socially inferior for so long. Though more interestingly, this very obvious link between the colour green and jealousy reveals the simplicity in which Clegg expresses himself. His speech is so formal it feels uncomfortable, this dated, old fashioned phrase and the child-like associations he makes, feel to me, as if Fowles is using colour symbolism to accentuate the almost inhuman formality and simplicity that Clegg possesses...

...evaluate the calls made by those analysts to ensure they are adhering to policy and procedure. There is a lot of validity to this survey on an internal level. This survey will help both departments understand where they are missing the mark. The policies and procedures impact a variety of internal sectors, which in turn impacts the overall business. For example, at the collector level, the agent needs to understand how to do their current job functions. They should be taught those skills by their supervisor. If their supervisor does not have a clear understanding of the current policies in place, when the quality group listens to, and evaluates the calls made by the collector, the collector is apt to fail. On a wider spectrum, the managers dictate to the Quality Group what they want to hear in the phone calls made with customers. If the Quality Analyst hears something that is against policy or procedure they will notify the management team. Once the management team reviews the call they will determine whether or not the current policies in place are in line with the specific needs of the business. For example, a collector had failed to verify the customer’s insurance information on a call, after the management team reviewed the call they determined that verifying insurance information on every call was not necessary. It was decided that a typical customer doesn’t regularly change their insurance provider and when a customer is asked for that information on every call, they get...

...Clegg wants Miranda because Miranda is everything he has never been able to have while growing up, but there is a flaw in this while Miranda and Clegg talk by the fireplace one evening. “Why do you take all the life out of life? Why do you kill al the beauty?’ I never had your advantages. That’s why” (79 Fowles). We can see that Clegg wants Miranda because he has never had the advantages in life that Miranda has had, but there’s a huge flaw in this statement and Miranda points it out “You can change, you’re young, you’ve got money. You can learn. And what have you don? You’ve had a little dream, the sort of dream I suppose little boys have and masturbate about, and you fall over yourself being nice to me so that you won’t have to admit to...

...the old people in the family of countries, while Russia, and other European countries are like the younger instyle kids. I made this connection because while we are still using fossil fuels, Russia for example are moving on to bigger things like solar panels. In Russia you can find solar panels all over the place. They have them on top of hospitals, houses, public buildings, just about everywhere. In the city of Krasnodar, they put a solar panel on top of the building to collect heat for their water. The solar collector system produces 10 m3 of hot water daily. The operational season is from the end of April until the end of September. The hot water in the pipe after the collectors heat it can reach 80°C in hot weather. The collectors are installed on the roof of the hospital's kitchen, and the water is used for cooking after some additional boiling powered by electricity. The system consists of 108 solar collector panels. A storage tank is used with these collectors to accumulate water and stabilize the supply. The drop in water temperature in the tank overnight is about 2°C. A pump is used to circulate water through the system. That just a taste of what they invested in. currently Russia is trying to put a solar panel in space to generate necessary power, yet we just have them on a couple of buildings and the lights for the streets. Another country that is ahead of us would be the English, and man over in England is supposed to have created an air powered...

In designing the game, assume that there is no regulation and that the two firms simultaneously choose between advertising and not advertising. Display your hypothetical payoffs in strategic form (see Figure 9.1) and highlight the Nash equilibrium. Explain the intuition for why the firms in your example would favor regulation to ban advertising.

...De’Aisha Waller Professor Trokan Religion 102 November 11, 2013 "For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted." This one sentence summary found at the very end of Luke 18:9-14 should give us all a good slap in the face. This particular passage is of vital importance in the Christian walk. Luke 18:9-14 tells us about a Pharisee and a tax collector who both go to a temple to pray. The Pharisee stands before God praying about himself; he thanks God that he is not like other men and women and that he is not like the tax collector beside him. At the same time, the tax collector lays himself down before the Lord praying that God have mercy on him, a sinner. Recognizing his sin and unworthiness the tax collector humbles himself and asks for the Lords mercy; which brings him forgiveness and peace. The Pharisee on the other hand looks down upon the tax collector and even thanks God that he is not like other men and women. This sense of self drives a wedge in the Pharisees relationship to God and also brings wrath and judgment upon himself. As I read this passage I found myself saying, "I must remain humble." Asking that question daily in every situation and circumstance will help each to avoid a mind set of self-righteousness as seen in Luke 18:9-14. (cf. Forerunner Commentary) The historical context of Luke is fairly interesting. Upon reading the gospels one might conclude that Matthew, Mark and Luke all pretty much say the same...

...thermal electric technology. This is primarily due to nine large commercial-scale solar power plants, the first of which has been operating in the California Mojave Desert since 1984. These plants, which continue to operate on a daily basis, range in size from 14 to 80 MW and represent a total of 354 MW of installed electric generating capacity. Large fields of parabolic trough collectors supply the thermal energy used to produce steam for a Rankine steam turbine/generator cycle. Figure 1. Solar/Rankine parabolic trough system schematic [1]. Plant Overview Figure 1 shows a process flow diagram that is representative of the majority of parabolic trough solar power plants in operation today. The collector field consists of a large field of single-axis tracking parabolic trough solar collectors. The solar field is modular in nature and is composed of many parallel rows of solar collectors aligned on a north-south horizontal axis. Each solar collector has a linear parabolic-shaped reflector that focuses the sun’s direct beam radiation on a linear receiver located at the focus of the parabola. The collectors track the sun from east to west during the day to ensure that the sun is continuously focused on the linear receiver. A heat transfer fluid (HTF) is heated as it circulates through the receiver and returns to a series of heat exchangers in the power block where the fluid is used to 5-24 SOLAR PARABOLIC TROUGH generate high-pressure superheated steam. The superheated steam...

...age i have never really been fond of mazes. I remember going into a maze a few years ago at six flags with the mindset that it was going to be cheesy and unrealistic. Oh man, was i wrong. I got so scared and paranoid to the point that when someone jumped out and scared me i physically punched them in the face by pure fear and instinct. Least to say the worker was not happy about it. This event transformed from me walking calmly through a scary area to me feeling threatened, attacked, and on the verge of being killed by someone popping up in my face. Transformations obviously create fear. This can be shown in the following three stories. Joyce Carol Oates “Where is Here”, Julio Cortazar's “House Taken Over”, and Arthur Tress’s “the Dream Collector” all transform by using suspension to prove Joyce Carol Oates “Where is Here” transformation scares readers because it goes from being a nice day to becoming creepy by an unwanted visitor.

...to debt collectors. This paper will provide information about how to stop calls from collectors and how to correspond with them about your account or to dispute a collection action. This paper also explain one’s right to privacy, and how debt collection efforts may affect your job, your credit report, even information in your medical files. This paper will also reflect from the business owner’s aspect and how debt collection agencies can affect their business, especially if the collection agency is not following the law as they should. Why are you being contacted by a collection agency? It usually means that a creditor has not received payment from you for several months. They have negotiated with another company or are using an in-house affiliate called a debt collector to attempt to get you to pay. Third party collectors often purchase your debt for less than you owe, and your debt is now owned by the collector. A collector may also work for the creditor in return for a fee or a percentage of any money collected. In-house collectors that are affiliated with the original creditor work on behalf of the company directly. Because the creditor has taken a loss on your account or because you are late with making payments, this negative information may show up on your credit report. Often the first contact with the debt collector is a telephone call from a representative, a prerecorded message asking you to call a mysterious toll-free number, or a letter. When a collector calls or...
