...1 Katherine Anne Porter’s “The Rope” and Margaret Atwood’s “The Resplendent Quetzal” have a lot of similarities. These two short stories are based on couples, and the basis of the problem in the two stories seems to be that they do not have children. In “The Resplendent Quetzal” we know that they lost their child at birth. While in “The Rope” we are lost as to the “how” or “why” they do not have children. The two stories show how these couples cope with their issues instead of trying to address it. In “The Rope”, the author does not use “he said” or “she said”, the narrative just goes straight into the conversation or thoughts of the character. The third person narrative technique does not give us insight into the psyche of the characters. It makes it seem like we are watching the incident happen. Each paragraph recounts the dialogue of both static individuals indirectly, without punctuation, in past tense, as if the tale were being told later by an overhearing neighbor. Each paragraph moves, not to a new speaker, but to a new grievance that both parties address; neither ever truly hears the other, although we do. We perceive a map not only of the argument but also of the frustrations that make up the marriage. We get the emotional standpoint of both characters. The story starts using the wife’s point of view who seems to have hysteria. There is no description of her, we do not know her name or where they are. There is also no name or description of the husband. The husband...

...Fiber Ropes And Wire Ropes During this segment we will cover the different types of fiber ropes, such as manila, sisal, hemp, coir, cotton and nylon. We will also discuss the fabrication, care, handling, characteristics and the inspection of fiber ropes. During the wire rope segment, we will discuss the fabrication, fiber core and characteristics of wire rope; wire rope lay, and the safe working capacity of wire rope. Fiber Rope: • Types of ropes • Fabrication • Care • Handling • Characteristics • Inspection Wire Rope: • Fabrication • Fiber core and characteristics • Wire rope lay • Safe working capacity MANILA ROPES The quality of the fiber and its length give manila rope relatively high elasticity, strength and resistance to wear and deterioration. In many instances, the manufacturer treats the rope with chemicals to make it more mildew-resistant, which increases the quality of the rope. Manila rope is generally the standard item of issue, because of its quality and relative strength. Select the INFO button for additional information on the manila fiber rope. Fiber Rope - Sisal The next fiber rope is the sisal fiber rope. Sisal rope is made from either the sisalana or the henequen plant. Sisal rope is about 80 percent as strong as high quality manila rope and is easily obtained. It withstands exposure to seawater very well and is often used for this reason.

...Wearing Quick Weaves versus Sew-ins Today women are more likely to be wearing not just the latest fashion, but also weave. There are many styles and methods when it comes to applying weaves. All techniques of weaves styles have different procedures; some may seem more difficult to apply than others. The two most popular techniques are quick weaves and sew-ins. Quick weaves and sew-ins differ in technique, care and cost. A quick weave is a method of installing hair extensions to hair without leaving out any natural hair. The hair extensions are attached to the natural hair by either adding gel to the natural hair to lay it down or by braiding the natural hair down to the scalp and then gluing the hair extensions down on top of that. With this method a person do not have to worry about choosing a color to match the natural hair, or about blending the hair extensions in with the natural hair. This method also gives a very flat and non bulky look to the hair extensions. A Quick Weave can last up to 4 weeks with proper maintenance. It could last longer but the natural hair needs to be washed and deep conditioned every month, especially when wearing braids or hair extensions regularly. To maintain a Quick Weave style a person should never put any oil based product onto the extension hair, for straight styles a person should wrap the hair every night and tie it up with a satin bonnet or satin scarf, for curly styles a person should apply light mouse and roller set to the hair overnight...

...Ropes of Hatred Tammy L. Boyd-Polk SOC/315 Mr. Hassan El-Amin Week 5, Individual Assignment 9/31/2007 Ropes of Hatred Hatred is not a behavior that humans are born with, it is a behavior that is taught and bred into people. In most cases this act of instilling hate is incepted during child hood, by a parent or a close relative. In some cases people who breathe hatred may have been introduced to this way of thinking out of their household by close friends or acquaintances. In either case this way of thinking has caused a strain on intercultural relationships in past years and it stills haunts our current society. The Deep South still wreaks the singe of racial discrimination, it seems the further south you travel the more you can experience or hear about how prevalent racism still is in these areas. It is always bad when the common citizens have this mentality; however when your judicial system is comprised of individuals who still embrace this thought pattern, then you really have to ask yourself who can you trust ?or who can you even turn to? when the officers that are suppose to up hold the laws are tainted along with the laws that are suppose to govern the land. It is apparent that the governing body of the United States places racial issues on the back burner; it seems to me that the government will only address certain issues if media attention warrants it. There is no excuse why all laws are not equivalent...

...PM 592 Project Cost and Schedule Control Executive Summary After reviewing the project costs, schedules, and earned values I have realized that there are some concerns with the schedule and costs. I have found that there are some tasks that have put the project behind schedule and over budget. After reviewing the project closely and making the adjustments by requesting and adding additional percentage for resources to the builder, plumber, electrician, hvac, and the ferris wheel supplier it will bring the project back on track and under budget. Which if you review the revised schedule you will find that the new schedule will still allow the theme park to open on time and within budget. Schedule 1 [pic] Performance Analysis Based on the Earned Value Management I have found that there are a couple stages behind schedule and once complete will end up over budget. Phase 1.5 Joists and Roof Deck is currently at 76% completion and is behind schedule, according to the charts once this is complete will end up finishing late and over budget. The responsibility of this task is on the Builder. Phase 1.7 Rough Carpentry is currently at 65% completion and also is behind schedule, this phase also will end up finishing late and over budget. Once again this task responsibility is on the Builder. Phase 1.11 Elevator is currently at 76% completion and also is behind schedule, this phase also will end up finishing late and over budget.

...My perfect summer I never imagined a wonderful summer as the one I have spent in Logan. Global Academy 2012 gave me the opportunity to experience the most unforgettable moments of my life. Despite the cultural shock, the lonely I felt at the beginning and all de embarrassing moments I had, Logan have been the perfect place for me to grow as a person, to improve my English, to make new friends, and to become more independent. I just can describe this summer as my best summer ever, my perfect summer. My most memorable moment in Logan was the ropes course because I was doing really challenging things, things that I never thought I could do. After I achieve my goals at the ropes course and overcame all the challenging things I felt a great satisfaction and self-realization. At the beginning I was shock by American culture but as soon as I started understanding it I enjoy every single moment in Logan. I really loved my first academic track excursions. I went to a restaurant in a small town called Ogden and I tried the Mormon Muffin, it was so delicious. I also had a great time at the Independence Day celebration at Rommie Stadium, the fireworks were amazing. I had never seen so many fireworks in one night. I was so amazed and I took a lot of pictures with my camera. These experiences gave me the opportunity of talk with native speakers and improve my English skills. Shopping in Logan is one of the things I enjoyed the most; the clothes, shoes, and almost everything are so...

...1. Why was the Great Depression of the 1930”s considered a boom time for Outdoor Recreation? (write on back for additional space) The Great Depression is considered a boom time for Outdoor Recreation, because people had little money to do anything else.

...Outdoor Education remains my favorite field trip of all time due to all of the memorable activities we experienced. For instance, I was able to touch and hold a wide variety of animals that I had never seen until I visited their science center. One animal was a blue tongue skink that reminded me of leather because it was dry and smooth. The chinchilla was also smooth, yet its fur was also the softest that I had ever felt. This goes to show that one can find similarities in unusual places. I would have never guessed that a reptile and a mammal would have anything in common, but their bodies were pleasing to the touch in different ways! In addition, I also was able to scale to great heights when I visited the high ropes course deep in the forest. Once I had my safety harness and helmet, I surged upward on ladders and nets. The nets were not as challenging as the balance beam which turned out to be my favorite because of the patience and determination that were needed. I realize now that even something difficult can be fun. I hope to use this thought in other areas of my life because now I might achieve even more than before. Finally, I loved splashing around Lake Peters in the canoe with my partner. The direction on how to hold the paddle and how to steer were not that hard, but actually doing it on the lake was difficult. It became less difficult with the help of my partner because we had to work together to be successful. This means that...

...Week 5 Rope Case: Fair Day’s Work MBA 63X A James Major Point of Story The juxtaposition of how management views a fair day’s work to how a worker views a fair day’s wage. Management and staff sometimes have competing interests and while directives may be given about performance improvement requirements, these directives are sometimes made without first getting staff buy in for the process. This can cause a disconnect in interests as exemplified by Ginny. The slogan work smarter places the onus on the management team to show workers how to work smarter. However, the catch phrase fair day’s work places the onus on the employee to determine what is a fair day’s work based upon his or her pay. Ginny believes that she is giving a fair days work for a fair days pay and will endeavor to ensure this status quo is maintained as long as there is no one looking over her shoulder. Theory Our economic system is predicated on the belief that those who work hard and apply themselves will be rewarded for their labor by a fair day’s pay. This foundational transaction is often at the core of companies’ belief that to keep employees going, a wage will suffice as a motivator for performance and performance improvement. Studies have however shown that this is rarely the case. Yes, it is true that a wage is the default motivator because money is measurable and fungible, but at best it is only a secondary motivator. Organizations provide rewards to staff with one simple fact in mind, to...
