...There are some similarities between two painting. First of all, the objects in both painting is similar. They both had the huge mountain, a forest, a pool or lake and also the appearance of human. The layout of both painting is also similar. There is a lake in the middle of the forest and the mountain is in the back. In contrast, there are also some differences between 2 painting Looking up the Yosemite Valley and Heart of the Andes. In Heart of the Andes, I think because of the time of a day, the painting Heart of the Andes is brighter than Looking up the Yosemite Valley. There is no shade in there. The most important differences between 2 painting is the position of viewing. In Looking up the Yosemite Valley, the artist view is from the bottom....

...Dr. Xiao Wang ENC1101 February 25, 2013 Diction, Imagery, and personification in the poem “I wondered lonely as cloud” This is a beautiful but simple poem about the beauty of nature and how inspiring it can be. The speaker says that, wandering like a cloud floating above hills and valleys, he encountered a field of daffodils beside a lake. The dancing, fluttering flowers stretched endlessly along the shore, and though the waves of the lake danced beside the flowers, the daffodils outdid the water in glee. The speaker says that a poet could not help but be happy in such a joyful company of flowers. He says that he stared and stared, but did not realize what wealth the scene would bring him. For now, whenever he feels “vacant” or “pensive,” the memory flashes upon “that inward eye / that is the bliss of solitude,” and his heart fills with pleasure, “and dances with the daffodils.”Wordsworth use of vivid imagery, concise diction and detailed personification is used to paint a picture perfect scene. The poem is rich with imagery, and in the first stanza, Wordsworth describes the scene as he wanders “as lonely as a cloud.” He compares himself to a “Solitary cloud” that is floating over the valleys and the hills and then he sees a “crowd” of golden daffodils which are under the trees and beside a lake and are “Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.” It is evident that the poet is admiring the beauty around him and capturing a beautiful snatched moment in time that nature has presented...

...Religious Poetry Research Paper Abstract King David was the author of Psalms 23: 1-6, and was revered throughout the bible as a great man that had great leadership qualities, and was admired by God. God himself referred to David as a man after his own heart. Throughout the Bible, there was only one man that held the heart of God; and that man was David. God described David as being a, “man after God’s own heart,” and gave the reason why He felt this way about David. “I have found David son of Jesse a man after my own heart; he will do everything I want him to do” (Acts 13: 22, Life Application Study Bible). The poetic words of Psalms 23 was written by King David, illustrating God as our Shepherd who provides, leads, protects, and comforts. Religious Poetry Research Paper Psalms 23 The Lord the Shepherd of His People A Psalm of David. 23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. 3 He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell[a] in the house of the Lord Forever (Psalm 23:1-6, The Maxwell Leadership...

...SWOT Analysis Wheeling Hospital Inc. David S. Pesi DeVry University SWOT Analysis Wheeling Hospital Inc. The place I chose to do my SWOT analysis on is Wheeling Hospital, where I work. It has served as a hospital in the Northern Panhandle of WV, Eastern Ohio and parts of Pennsylvania longer than any other hospital in and around WV. Founded in 1850 by Bishop Richard V. Whelan and Dr. Simon Hullihen, owned and operated by the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston. A catholic hospital that serves as a health ministry that provides care to people of all creeds and providing first-rate health care by abiding to their mission of HUMAN TOUCH: Healing, Understanding, Ministry, Advanced technology, Nurturance, Tradition, Ongoing education, Unity, Care and Hope. Wheeling Hospital has the area’s only full service Cardiac Catherization lab, which allows them to diagnose and treat all cardiac health issues. All other hospitals in the area are only able to take X-ray pictures of your heart, but if you need treatment for your case, they have to send you out to another hospital an hour to two hours away. This proves to be an advantage for Wheeling Hospital because people who care about their loved ones, wants them to recover with the least amount of complications and with the heart, time is of the essence. They also provide extraordinary cancer care through their Schiffler Cancer Center. It is internationally recognized and has treated patients from thirty-four states and thirteen foreign countries...

...Nagambie is a small town, home to some of Victoria’s finest and historic wineries. With its increasing popularity as a tourist destination as well as quality vineyards, Nagambie has triggered government initiatives for the region’s development. The Mitchelton Wines, located in Nagambie along the beautiful Goulburn River. It is one of the leading wineries in Nagambie and is considered to be one of the most contemporary and yet historic wineries in Australia. However, since Nagambie is a small town and there are strong competition from more popular wine regions in Victoria, such as the Yarra Valley, Mitchelton lacks exposure. Thus, Mitchelton Wines and the tourism businesses of Nagambie should cooperate with the Australian tourism industry at large to increase their success and geographical identity/brand equity. Strategic operations from other successful wine regions such as the Napa Valley are taken into consideration in this report to formulate proposed strategies....

...Themes Themes are the fundamental and often universal ideas explored in a literary work. The Decline of the American Dream in the 1920s On the surface, The Great Gatsby is a story of the thwarted love between a man and a woman. The main theme of the novel, however, encompasses a much larger, less romantic scope. Though all of its action takes place over a mere few months during the summer of 1922 and is set in a circumscribed geographical area in the vicinity of Long Island, New York, The Great Gatsby is a highly symbolic meditation on 1920s America as a whole, in particular the disintegration of the American dream in an era of unprecedented prosperity and material excess. Fitzgerald portrays the 1920s as an era of decayed social and moral values, evidenced in its overarching cynicism, greed, and empty pursuit of pleasure. The reckless jubilance that led to decadent parties and wild jazz music—epitomized in The Great Gatsby by the opulent parties that Gatsby throws every Saturday night—resulted ultimately in the corruption of the American dream, as the unrestrained desire for money and pleasure surpassed more noble goals. When World War I ended in 1918, the generation of young Americans who had fought the war became intensely disillusioned, as the brutal carnage that they had just faced made the Victorian social morality of early-twentieth-century America seem like stuffy, empty hypocrisy. The dizzying rise of the stock market in the aftermath of the war led to a sudden, sustained...

...Proposal for Use of Pseudostem from Banana Tree (Musa cavendish) D. G. FERIOTTI & A. M. IGUTI Maua Institute of Technology, Sao Caetano do Sul, Brazil (danygf85@yahoo.com.br) ABSTRACT This paper presents a proposal for use of pseudostem from the banana tree (Musa cavendish). After banana harvesting, the pseudostems are cut and left in the fields. In order to add value to banana plantation, the pseudostem could be processed into products. Nowadays, the pseudostem fiber has been used mainly in handicrafts. Although studies have shown that the cellulose fiber has suitable features to industry, the yield is low because pseudostem has about 90% of water. This research presents the physicochemical composition of the liquid fraction extracted from pseudostems and proposes an application for it. The following analyses were performed: sugar, protein, fat, solids, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, chloride, tannin, polyphenoloxidase and peroxidase activity, microbiological and pesticides. Once it contains potassium and sodium, the development of a sport drink seemed suitable. The paper presents some social and economical data of Vale do Ribeira region, the main banana producing region of Sao Paulo State. Additionally, some concepts of the banana plantation are reviewed as well as information about sport drink and the new Brazilian law on athlete’s food. Data about its market are also included, and the results of analyses. The results showed that the liquid fraction...

...I then decided to write once again about a topic found in my first paper and I noticed that despite the fact that the Valley of the Rulers isn’t the first ledge, or terrace in Dante’s Purgatorio[1] (unlike Limbo which is the first circle of hell) and that it isn’t also technically IN Purgatory but right before it (a.k.a Ante-Purgatory), it does indeed have some similarity/parallelism (but also big differences) to the first circle of the Inferno (Limbo). The key words I noticed was that Dante the wayfarer asks Virgil who are those “separate from the rest” as they approach Limbo[2] (In the Inferno). Then in the Purgatorio, Sordello leads Dante and Virgil to the Valley of the Rulers who are referred to those (spirits) who are “set apart”[3] Now speaking of Limbo in the Inferno, Virgil, who also happens to be from this place (proved by line 39, Inferno 4), refers to the inhabitants of Limbo as “those who live in longing”[4] (manifested by their constant sighing, and not any outcry of pain due to suffering unlike other Cantos in the Inferno). Logically and factually, these souls long for the Beatific Vision or entry into Paradise, but such event will never happen despite these pagans being virtuous[5] (unless Christ decides to repeat the Harrowing of Hell wherein He took some virtuous pagans in Limbo and brought them to Paradise[6]). In reference now to the Valley of the Rulers, these individuals also live in longing, but unlike the virtuous pagans in Limbo, these late-repentants will...

...Energy Solution Faces Economic Obstacles By STANLEY REED Published: November 28, 2012 LONDON — Until last month, the Don Valley Power Project in northeast England looked like a winner. In July it topped a shortlist for a share of as much as €1.5 billion in E.U. funding for innovative low-carbon electricity schemes. But then came a blow. When the British government published its own selection of potential recipients of a slice of £1 billion, or $1.6 billion, in funding in a national competition for carbon capture and storage projects Oct. 30, Don Valley was left off. That means it is not eligible for a share of the E.U. money — equivalent to $2 billion — either. The government is not commenting on why Don Valley lost out, but a key reason appears to be its hefty £5 billion capital cost. Don Valley looked well conceived. The plant would burn coal — normally a huge polluter — but 90 percent of the carbon dioxide would be removed and piped 250 miles, or 400 kilometers, to the North Sea. There the company would inject the gas into two oil fields to assist recovery of oil, helping to offset the expense. But the program cannot go ahead without the support of the British government, the project’s sponsor, 2CO Energy said. Carbon capture and storage could be a boon for the gas and power industry because — if plants could be built economically — it offers a way to use fossil fuels like coal and gas to generate electricity for decades while also meeting greenhouse gas targets...

...John Steinbeck: Chrysanthemums Analysis The authors’ use of vivid details draws the reader into the lonely world of Elisa Allen. The dismal setting at the very onset of Steinbeck’s short essay, allows nature to become a part of the overbearing shadow of Elisa Allen’s hopelessly trapped existence. From the closed off valley to the fenced in garden, Elisa’s mundane covered pot imprisons her needs on various levels. As the story states, “It was a time for quiet and waiting”. She waits to be appreciated and taken seriously by her husband, Henry. She waits and longs for a meaningful sexual relationship that will have depth and substance in the prime of her life. She waits for a chance to fulfill her dreams of adventure, and yet even though she is strong, proud and willing she is never given the opportunity to discover who she is or what else she may be capable of doing. The strong, sturdy, beautiful chrysanthemums become an extension of Elisa. For when the flowers were well taken care of by her planters’ hands, they bud, thrive and grow into outstanding sturdy blossoms that are the talk of the county. She too would like to bud like the flower, to be opened up to new awakenings, adventure and feelings of appreciation and beauty. The fact that she longs to be a part of something bigger than herself is seen in the numerous brief trancelike depictions of her physically being at the ranch and yet looking toward the horizon at what possibly lies just out of...

This includes both evidence of tangible fact, such as measurement of hospital acquired infections, and measurement of customer perception, such as would be accomplished through a customer satisfaction survey. In a service industry such as health care, the performance measurement process starts by defining precisely the services that the organization promises to provide, including the quality or level of service (e.g. timeliness, reliability, etc.) that is to be delivered” (Performance Measurement Fundamental, 2011).
