...TUI University MODULE 1: Case Study ENG102 English Composition 2 Dr. Mike Frangos 12 October 2013 "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge," by Ambrose Bierce, was set during the Civil War in Alabama. This gave me an insight to life during the war and what happens to people if they take sides. The author chronicled the experience of a southern secessionist identified as Peyton Farquhar, who was condemned to death by hanging from Owl Creek Bridge. Bierce's sequence of writing goes from the present time then to a flashback, an imagined present or fantasy, then back to the present again. The story began with an unidentified man being prepared to be hanged by a company of Union soldiers on a railroad bridge that runs over a river. His hands were behind his back, his wrists were in cords, and there was a rope around his neck. He and a couple of soldiers were the only people on the bridge. After all of the essential preparations, the two soldiers stepped aside and were ready to perform their duties. And then the author transferred the reality to the main character’s thoughts, having the reader view Peyton’s thoughts also as reality. “He looked a moment at his "unsteadfast footing," then let his gaze wander to the swirling water of the stream racing madly beneath his feet." Peyton Farquhar grew up as a rich southerner. He had everything that a man could ever want at that point in time: a wife, children, land and slaves. However, he had...

...Merging personal computers with consumer electronics Edmund Wilson III Colorado Technical University Online ENG202 12/10/2010 Merging Consumer Electronics with Personal Computers The invention of the computer had two primary goals: convenience and flexibility. Its convenience provides ways for people to effectively complete a task. The flexibility further allows the user to perform a multiplicity of functions simultaneously. For example, an English inventor and Mathematician named Charles Babbage built an adding machine that would mechanically perform computations of arithmetic. (Berkshire 2004) Conveniently, this early computerized device removed the potential for human error and made it possible to compute information in a smaller amount of time and with less mental effort or energy. Today, the flexibility of computers has grown from simple Mathematical computations to multi-faceted functions and applications. Advancements in technology have opened personal computers to new supportive uses. Their functions have shifted from storing data and word processing to creating, playing, and sharing multimedia files and networks. The personal computer can be networked (connected) with home electronics to create the ultimate technological experience. These mergers can include gaming systems, DVD players, cameras, home theater or sound systems, high-end televisions, home security systems, and more. Converging most or all of these devices with your personal computer can expand your...

...Indicators of Effective and Efficient Use of Language A Paper Work Presented to Professor Rowena J Rivero The Faculty of the Graduate School Meycauayan College In Fulfillment of the Requirements for the ENG202 Descriptive Linguistics Nathaniel R. Bautista Student CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Words are basic element in communication, to communicate effectively one must know what exactly he/she wanted to express. Use specific rather than general words avoid clincher, there repeated words lost its effectiveness, because of redundancy. Do not use slang, jargon, or foreign words. It only confuse your listener, you also avoid euphemisms that can create subtle ideas. Above all avoid self–favorite words. In this world of complex individual men and women are two distinct creatures, who actually had opposite expressions, ideas and choice of words. This is the main reason why conflicts arise. A lot of studies show the diversity of men to women. To start with let us explore the languages each one utilizes. Facilitating better connotation between sexes, doesn’t mean that men need to completely change their behaviors or that women need to change, but in order to improve communication and have more harmonious relationship and effective work environment, we each have to work harder to understand and respect our differences. The men speak “menglish” women say “it’s a girl thing“. It may sound the same the same but words and phrases have entirely different meanings thus...
