...importantly taught me the true value of life itself. Being that my mother has had Multiple Sclerosis for more than ten years, I have witnessed firsthand the struggles and hardships that she has faced. One example of those hardships is not being able to walk without assistance. Seeing her face many hardships has convinced me that even though life may get hard, it may not be a beneficial thing to give up. The different emotions that she faces may not be recognizable to those around her but she still manages to take it one day at a time. To my mom a new day brings a new brand new attitude and a new possibility. I like to live by that mindset because it shows the amount of optimism you have. My mother has a strong way of saying “When the tough gets going, the tough gets going.” Whenever I am having a horrible day or decides that I will decline something because it is too “hard” then I will remind myself of this motto; Then I would sit and think of her reaction and her positive mindset about things which would consequently influence mine. Also, showing her being a fighter toward her condition has consequently convinced me that without a fight there is no point in standing for what you believe. Seeing my mom trying to fight against not losing her walking completely and also standing up for her overall has convinced me to speak what’s in my mind and in my heart. My mother’s condition could possibly worsen and she may stop walking all together. Being aware of this my mom tries extra hard to...

...narrator has truth in his words, but all events in the story point to the contrary. T. Corahessan Boyle, or T. C. Boyle for short, is an unreliable narrator. The truth of this story is not in the text, but in the underlying meanings and subliminal nuances. This hidden reality really helps the reader make a direct judgment of the characters. After reading between the lines, one quickly finds out who the characters are, but more importantly, who they are not. Every 19 year old boy wants to be tough. Reputation is everything to a teenager and toughness is the cornerstone of that reputation. Even though most boys at 19 are far from being truly tough, they sure do play the part. “Greasy Lake” outlines the adventure of three wanna’ be tough dudes. Throughout the story the author, also the narrator, leaves hints for the reader to help determine the characters background. He refers to them as ‘mistakes’ but after a while the reader realizes that the one sole mistake was the boys fronting to be tough in the first place. The second line of the story immediately triggers a judgment call for the reader. The narrator comes outright and says, “We were all dangerous characters then (Boyle 164).” Dangerous dudes are known for reputation, and reputation is built by ‘showing’ not ‘telling’. The reader now has to ask him/herself if the narrator is truly dangerous. If he is dangerous, there would not be a point in telling the audience in the second sentence, for that would surely spoil the rest...

...Alexander Team B discussed the decision making that the CEO of Xerox had to perform in the beginning of her tenure in order to get the company to where it is today, stable and competitive. I think that we all agreed that when she first took the position that she had to make some tough decisions by cutting departments which in turn meant cutting jobs which is always going to be a hard thing for any manager to do within any company. In the state that the company was in when the CEO took it over hard decisions had to be made in order to keep the company out of bankruptcy. She closed down the desktop printers division and focused on the commercial printers to give the company a boost in sales and it worked. Fast speed color printers are something needed in almost every company, Xerox just has to stay competitive with HP and Brother in order to keep the company running in the right direction. We also found it very interesting and noble that the CEO keeps the company to have a family fell to it. At sometimes one of the team members felt that this could be a downfall due to keeping a family orientated environment would cause a manager or anyone with an authoritative position not want to make the tough calls when needed closures, layoffs etc. The team also found it interesting that a former CEO that had left the company had been asked to come back and basically handpicked Anne Mulcaly to be his successor.

..."It was your two-word retranslation, Lee- 'Thou mayest.' It took me by the throat and shook me. And when the dizziness was over, a path was open, new and bright. And my life which is ending seems to be going on to an ending wonderful. And my music has a new last melody like a bird song in the night." Lee was peering at him through the darkness. "That's what it did to those old men of my family." "Thou mayest rule over sin, ' Lee. That's it. I do not believe all men are destroyed. I can name you a dozen who were not, and they are the ones the world lives by. It is true of the spirit as it is true of battles-Only the winners are remembered. Surely most men are destroyed, but there are others who like pillars of fire quite frightened men through the darkness. 'Thou mayest, Thou mayest!' What glory! It is true that we are weak and sick and quarrelsome, but if that is all we ever were, we would millenniums ago, have disappeared from the face of the earth. A few remnants of fossilized jawbone, some broken teeth in strata of limestone, would be the only mark man would have left of his existence in the world. But the choice, Lee, the choice of winning! I had never understood it or accepted it before. Do you see now why I told Adam tonight? I exercised the choice. Maybe I was wrong, but by telling him I also forced him to live or get off the pot. What is that word, Lee?" "Timshel," said Lee This passage portrays the theme of Timshel which means 'Thou mayest' in hebrew. Once Lee told...

...Being a girl can become a difficult life style. Between our stages in life, staggering attitudes and emotions… I don’t know how we would get through it. I myself am a girl, born and raised as one; so I know first hand that I can be very frail and take many chances. I’m also the target for a lot of people, for emotional support and other things. My parents depend a lot on me to take care of things when they can’t, especially because I'm the only girl. I recall my 5th grade classroom, the desks were set up in rows of six, and I sat in the middle row, of a large room filled with an average sized class. And that’s where he sat, right there in front of me; now being a female in a male bias world I found that most guys don’t expect you to know how to fight. And that’s where he made his mistake. His name was Tommy and he tried to take my pencil, this might not seem like a big deal now but ever since I was younger, I had an “obsessive compulsive disorder” type of thing; I absolutely positively could not stand to have people touching my things, or things that I had previously touched. So I asked him kindly to please not touch my things…he didn’t quite listen. He continued to grab for my book bag when I told him again “DO NOT TOUCH MY THINGS” I was getting madder and he didn’t seem to comprehend the level of seriousness displayed in my threatening tone. “Shut up” he snapped back at me “don’t be a tattle tale”. “I wont,” I said through my teeth “but stop touching my things” with an...

...Over the years in college, college athletes are going into debt because they are not being paid to play in sports events. Money is needed for college athletes when they don’t have enough to pay for food or clothes. First, college athletes should be paid because it keeps them in school. Second, athletes work harder than most students. Third, selling merchandise with signature on it is against NCAA laws. Paying athletes could keep them in school because they could go a different way in their life instead of sports. “If college athletes were paid for the talents that they possess while in school, they might be more willing to finish their degree, just on the off chance that the sports path doesn’t work out for them(Walch)." Some college athletes will not be guaranteed to go pro in the sport they love to play. If athletes stop playing sports, they can try a new path to a new career. “NCAA regulation that 50 percent of student athletes have to graduate is very loose, but in order to keep the facade of a student-first mentality, college athletes are not ‘paid’(Walch)." Athletes won’t have enough money to buy food or essentials while in college. College athletes can receive loans...

...Salary Vs. Satisfaction Money is an asset that all people need and of course want more of. Choosing your professional career can be a very tough decision between the jobs that will provide a higher income or the outcome of your personal satisfaction. Indeed having a high-paying job saves the financial stress that millions of people have, but what happens when your satisfaction runs out? Society has brainwashed each other to believe that the higher the income the happier you are, but is money really the key to happiness? Working for the satisfaction can make an employee develop stronger and steady goals rather than someone that dreads going into work could create more of a negative attitude towards work. There are other things that are by far way more important than salary when deciding on a job or career.

Lisa Henderson, author of the 2010 Salary and Satisfaction Survey, mentioned that more pharmaceutical companies are looking for more regulatory, stronger qualities, and knowing the clinical roles while hiring employees. Henderson (2010) also states that employees struggle with the workload pressure that tan employee can develop due to not being fully satisfied with the work environment.

Whether it is a small business startup or it is a simple investment opportunity, seizing the moment can result in the option to retire early. Entrepreneurship is the ability to flip investments and businesses for a profit. Entrepreneurship is what allows me to work from home and be my own boss. Entrepreneurship is what lets me live life to its fullest without restrictions. Looking back at my short time in business, I have started a business before I was able to drive, I turned a hobby into a source of income and I have been able to help my parents with finances. My first business venture came when I was 14 years old. I was very interested with making YouTube videos and how to get more views. I created my first website detailing the different methods on how to gain exposure on YouTube videos. It took me over a month to read up on web development and networking. I took the plunge and bought my first server to host my website. I implemented Google Analytics so I could watch how many viewers I was getting and what pages they were most interested in. After a couple of weeks of letting the site run on auto-pilot, I started to receive a few emails about creating websites and managing their web servers so I decided to start...
