...Both stories depend upon illusions, or possible illusions. Does Young Goodman Brown really encounter the devil in his walk through the woods? Or is the man a creature of his imagination? Does Jane really see a woman behind the wallpaper? Or is she hallucinating? In each case the author is ambiguous on the point to involve the reader more firmly in the dilemma of the main character. Both stories depend upon repressed sexuality. Faith wants Brown to remain with her and have relations. Brown rejects her and goes to fulfill his "evil purpose." Jane both desires and resents John and has no satisfactory outlet for her sexual needs. Both stories end with the protagonist rejecting the world. Young Goodman Brown becomes an embittered, sour, cynical, standoffish man. Jane descends into madness. However, Brown manages to live in the world, albeit in an emotionally cramped, pushed-away fashion. He and Faith must have had intercourse—how Brown must have cringed!—because there are plenty of children and grandchildren by the end of "Young Goodman Brown." Jane, on the other hand, is unable to deal with her feelings. One has the feeling that there can be no reconciliation between her and her doctor husband. The note of despair is carried through differently ______________________________________________________________________ The portrayal of the masquerade ball foreshadows the similar setting of the carnival in “The Cask of Amontillado,” which appeared less than a year after...

...Freshwater and Saltwater Fishing Fishing is a sport enjoyed by many outdoor enthusiast. There is nothing like hearing the sharp, high pitched whining of the reel as your line gets pulled into the depths of the glistening, crystal clear, salty water. There are two types of fishing; saltwater and freshwater. Many people do not realize the vast differences in the two types of fishing, or even the obvious similarities. Selecting the right equipment for the different fishing styles, such as tackle and bait, can make or break an anglers day. Any fisherman needs some basic gear to be successful on the water. Whether it is saltwater or freshwater fishing, there are three essential parts to a fishing setup. The first would be a fishing pole. This is used to string your line and allow you to reel it back in once you have hooked a fish. The second would be your line which is used to cast out into the water. The last vital component to any fishing setup would be the hook. With any luck, the fish will latch onto your hook and you can reel it in. The main differences in freshwater and saltwater fishing is the type of tackle that is used. Lakes and ponds are usually the main spots for freshwater fishing, whereas saltwater fishing is done in the massive ocean. These size differences in the water holes has a drastic affect on the size of your catch. Freshwater fish are typically smaller, usually around 10 pounds, while saltwater fish can be as big as a car. In order to pull in a massive...

...Public Policing Versus Private Security Comparison Paper AJS/502 November 23, 2013 Public Policing Versus Private Security Comparison Paper An individual seeking employment dealing with police work has the option of either obtaining a job as a private security officer or a police officer. Many similarities and differences exist concerning the two roles of public policing and private security. How private security and police officers operate and work together among the two organizations is different, but both entities display leadership responsibilities. The influences that both organizations have on the criminal justice system would be much better if both entities would join forces and collaborate on strengthening their relationship and working toward protecting society. This paper will highlight the differences and similarities between the two roles, how the leadership differs between the two roles, and what the relationship of each role is with the criminal justice system. The paper will also draw attention to what the essential policies for each role are and identify and discuss the significance of a comprehensive security plan, and what its main components are. Differences Both private security and public security are similar in many ways, but major differences between the two entities do exist. A distortion often exists between the dissimilarities of private and public policing. The individuals who work as private security officers have a mirror...

...The Economics of Open Source Software Development Jiirgen Bitzer and Philipp J. H. Srhroder (Editurs) O 2006 Published by Elsevier B.V. Linux vs. Windows: A Comparison of Application and Platform Innovation Incentives for Open Source and Proprietary Software Platforms Nicholas Economides and Evangelos Katsamakas ABSTRACT The chapter analyzes and compares the investment incentives of platform and application developers for Linux and Windows. We find that the level of investment in applications is larger when the operating system is open source rather than proprietary. The comparison of the levels of investment in the operating systems depends, among others, on reputation effects and the number of developers. The chapter also develops a short case study comparing Windows and Linux and identifies new directions for open source software research. Keywords: Open Source Software, operating systems, technology platforms, Linux, innovation incentives. JEL Classification: L 10, L86, L3 1. 10.1 INTRODUCTION Open source software is an emerging type of software that may fundamentally affect the business and economic features of the software industry.

...Hospital Comparison Many people are interested in how their local hospital or hospitals are performing and are interested in a grading system that will allow them to evaluate the level and safety of patient care that is being provided (medicare.gov). On the Medicare website, http://medicare.gov/hospitalcompare, consumers are able to evaluate this information. This site provides information on several aspects of care including timely and effective care, use of medical imaging and readmission complications and deaths (medicare.gov). This paper will look at comparing Platte Valley medical center in Brighton Colorado, with Columbus community hospital in Columbus Nebraska. Both these hospitals are smaller facilities and are acute care hospitals. The comparison of these two hospitals will be in the category of timely and effective care. First a comparison will be done on timely and effective care for heart attack care. The next comparison will be conducted on Heart failure care. The comparison will look at these two similar hospitals and assess how effective and timely the care is in these two areas and will also compare them to the national average. The first subcategory to compare will be “Outpatients with chest pain or a possible heart attack who received aspirin within the first twenty four hours of arrival or before transferring from emergency department (medicare.gov). This is an important measure to look at as there is evidence based practice and studies that indicate...

...Having a job and having a career means two different things to me. For the last three years I have held a job as a customer service rep. For me in this field I really don’t see much growth unless you are willing to be a very extreme and repetitive person. I have learned in the last two in a half years of being in this profession that it is not something I would continue to do. To compare what I am in school to do and what I have done over the last two in half years is a big difference. Far as the customer service field I can say that it is job security and that I have benefits but not much more. I don’t have leadership that is really driven for the best other than meeting quotas and stats. I have the repetitive and simplicity of the job and the same atmosphere. I have given my all and best to my current job and everyday grow to hate it more. For the most part the atmosphere is very open to any type of person to work in the field. There is not much that goes into screening for a customer service position. Which for me I feel makes for a not to safe environment. I have meet some great people who work at my current job but they are not happy with the overall working conditions either. The pay is not the best and not may incentives that are given to strive to be better. The opportunity for promotion is given not because of your job performance but more for if management feels that you are a good candidate or not. So for me this is not a good job or working situation for me at all...

...‘‘Love vs. Hate relationship” After watching the film “A Dollhouse” by Hendrik Ibsen, I seen that there is was a love and hate relationship between the characters Mrs. Linde and Nora. A contrasting difference in the characters, are shown not in the characters themselves, but the role that they play in their marriages. These two women have different relationships with their husbands. Torvald and Nora have a relationship where there is no fairness. She plays the submissive role in a society where the lady plays the passive role. Her most important duty is to please her husband, Torvald, making her role similar to a slave. Torvald also considers himself to be superior to her. Nora was raised in such a way that her role in their day and time required her to do whatever her husband said to do. It all started when she was younger and her father never gave her the opportunity to think for herself and to be independent. That lead her to being so submissive and the results was her not being able to have her own mind. As for Cristine and Krogstad their relationship is much more open to us. It is clear that if Cristine and Krogstad were to engage in an argument, it is more likely that they would come to an agreement soon after. When Mrs. Linde and Nora are put in comparison, both are willing to sacrifice themselves for other things that are dear to them. Mrs. Linde shows her loyalty to her family when she knew that she had the right to...

...COMPARISION OF GREEK AND ROMAN CULTURES Element Greece Rome Art The Greeks developed 3 design elements. These elements were Corinthian, Ionic, and Doric. They also used pottery as an important form of expression and storytelling. This showed different aspects of their culture throughout the ages. The Romans were fond of using statues, paintings, and mosaics in their culture. The inspiration for these forms of expression came from the Greeks. The statues were purposely designed to tell stories of their history and culture. The Greeks used small figures as well as life size statues among other materials to tell of their culture, especially their heroes and gods, important event events, and culture. Roman statues were significant in telling of the history of the culture. Government The main forms of government in ancient Greece were Tyranny, Monarchy, Oligarchy, and Democracy. Kings were the first rulers of Greece leading way to Democracy. The first rulers of Rome were kings however the Romans developed a government which allowed citizens to elect their own consuls (officials). After years of this the power of the consuls gave way to an emperor. Philosophy There were three main contributors to Greek philosophy, Plato, Socrates, and Aristotle. The basic philosophic thoughts were based on subjects including ethics, logics, and rhetoric. Romans were influenced by the philosophical writings of the Greeks. Lucretius, Cicero, and Seneca were some of the first Romans...

...Comparison of Two Religions By: Matthew Dane Religion 212 Mr. Owen Miller 11-3-2013 For this paper I was asked to compare and contrast two of the different Religions we have studied over the last four weeks. I learned about about some religions I knew nothing about so this is going to be interesting. I am going to do the paper on Hinduism and Buddhism. In Hinduism you are to worship many Gods. They do only believe in one Supreme Being, Brahman; but they pursue knowledge of Truth and Reality; they strive for moral order and right action; and they promote tolerance. They follow the Vedas very closely. 1“The Vedas are the Hindu scriptures that contain revelations received by ancient saints and sages.” Hindus believe that the Vedas are without beginning and without end; when everything else in the universe is destroyed, the Vedas remain. So by this the Hindus believe the Vedas are the ultimate authority. These people also believe that everyone should achieve Dharma. Unfortunately there is no true translation for this word, so this is the closest we can find. 2“Hindi word “dharma,” often translated into English simply as “religion,” refers to a broad complex of meanings, encompassing duty, natural law, social welfare, ethics, health, wealth, power, fulfillment of desires, and transcendental realization.” Anyone who makes dharma central to one’s life strives to do the right thing, according to one’s duty and abilities, at all times. In the world today, millions of people...
