Editha :: essays research papers

Editha   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  In the beginning Editha is war hungry. She wants her country to go to war, and she wants George to go and fight. Even though the author doesnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t give the age of Editha, I believe she acts very childish, and immature. I understand loving your country and wanting to fight for it, but one must also realize the danger that comes along with it. She is obsessed with her country and fighting for it. She puts an ultimatum on George. He is unsure of the war, and unsure of fighting in it, but she constantly pushes him to go. She even evolves God in it. Saying à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“God meant it to be warà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬? (273). She is speaking of it, as if it was a à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Holy Warà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬?. This is not the case, and George does not buy into it, but she keeps pushing him. The ultimatum comes when he says à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ll come back to supper, if youà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ll let me. Perhaps I shall bring you a convertà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬? (272). She repl ies with à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Well, you may come back, on that conditionà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬? (272). She is putting à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“if, and only ifà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬? requirements on his return to her.   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Once he leaves, she gets more demanding, and writes him a letter explaining that if he doesnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t make the right (or her) decision, then the engagement will be off. Her love of country is more important than the love of her man; à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“There is no honor above America with me. In this great hour there is no other honorà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬? (273). Editha is very set in this train of thought, she can see no other way, and no other options but to fight. If George does not fight, then she cannot marry him. She is forcing her morals, and ideals down his throat, and he does not have a chance to stand up for his own. Editha claims, à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“She could not accept for her country or herself a forced sacrificeà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬? (273). Yet this is exactly what she is doing. These few rational insights lead me to believe that Editha suffers from some sort of mental instability. She claims not to want a forced sacrifice, yet this is what she does, and when a ratio nal insight crosses her mind, she recognizes it, yet she dismisses it as fast as it came to her. I feel that she guiltà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s George into going to war, and is very proud to have done so, when she learns of his decision.

Business Plan: Paper Recycle & Reuse

Business Plan: Paper Recycle & Reuse 1. Introduction a. The name of my business is â€Å"All Papers†. b. The business is about recycle and reuse paper 2. Business Description a. The company will collect the second hand paper, cardboard box and textbooks then turns into pencil, gift box and white papers. b. Paper is one of the most common daily use, recycle paper will have a low cost to get the processed materials and low risk. c. The main goal for this business is to reduce the paper waste, and protect trees. 3. Sale and Marketing a. Students in school, and young group of people is our target market. . We will sell the recycle pencils, gift boxes and clean A4 papers in every stationary store like Staples gift shops and school shops. 4. Conclusion and Summary a. The most important aspects for this plan is â€Å"Recycle†, the technics to recycle the products are the key point for this business, as Szaky said, â€Å"We’re on the edge of bankruptcy and of being a hu ge success at the same time† so the procedure for recycle can not cause any kind of pollution, if we recycle papers, and we create pollutions, no one will no longer trust us that we are an environmentally friendly company.However Furthermore, all the products are using the recycle materiel, so the price in the stationary store will have more competitive power compare with other new product. Thus, I believe this investment will win in the market competition. www. starkstate. edu

Marine Arthropod Facts and Examples

Arthropods are organisms belonging to the kingdom Animalia and the phylum Arthropoda. They are a very diverse group of animals that includes but is far from limited to insects, crustaceans, spiders, scorpions, and centipedes. Arthropods make up the largest phylum in the world, with more numbers and species diversity than most other phyla. With more than 800,000 known species of arthropods, it is no wonder that they dominate the land and sea. Characteristics of Arthropods All Arthropods Jointed legs: Jointed legs allow arthropods to travel quickly regardless of their method of transportation. Whether swimming or scurrying across the ground, arthropods are speedy because of their jointed legs.A segmented body: An arthropods body can be divided into one, two, or three main sections. If they have one section, it is called a trunk. If they have two sections, these are called the cephalothorax and abdomen. If they have three sections, the third section is the head.A hard exoskeleton: The exoskeleton of an arthropod is made of a strong polysaccharide called chitin. This hard shell protects the animal, retains moisture, and sometimes even plays a role in reproduction.Compound eyes: Compound eyes allow arthropods to take in their environment in a variety of ways. Arthropods can see through a very wide lens and use their compound eyes to detect the slightest of motions and perceive any depth. Additional features make certain species of arthropods better suited for their specific habitat. Terrestrial Arthropods Land dwelling arthropods have a number of features that enable them to succeed in their environment. Stinger: The stinger allows terrestrial arthropods to inject their prey with poison and paralyze, injure, or dissolve it into an edible liquid.Book Lungs/Trachea: In order to respirate air, terrestrial arthropods need a special set of lungs and/or trachea. Book lungs are layered organs that expand to take air in and contract to absorb it.Spinnerets: Terrestrial arthropods like spiders use spinnerets to produce webs. These can be used for shelter, prey entrapment, courtship, etc. Aquatic Arthropods Like land-dwelling arthropods, aquatic arthropods require adaptations that make living wholly or partially underwater possible. Gills: Just as book lungs allow for terrestrial respiration, gills allow for aquatic respiration. Marine arthropods use their gills to take in water and absorb its oxygen into their bloodstream.Cement Glands: Cement glands are unique adaptations that allow barnacles to adhere to nearly any surface. The adhesive secreted helps barnacles cling to rocks, ships, and other organisms and is so strong that scientists study its properties as inspiration for new materials.Swimmerets: Swimmerets allow some species of aquatic arthropods to swim, a movement that closely resembles running quickly through the water. In some species, a pair of swimmerets is used to inseminate mates. Habitat and Distribution Arthropods can survive in nearly any habitat. Different species can be found on dry land, water, or a combination of both. Aquatic arthropods are often found in coastal habitats like sandy beaches and intertidal areas but can even live comfortably in the deep sea. Horseshoe crabs are one of the oldest known species of marine arthropods. They have been known to inhabit both deep ocean waters and coastal sands. With as many species of arthropods as are living on the earth, it is far more difficult to find an environment or ecosystem where arthropods are not present than to find one where they are. Reproduction Arthropods usually reproduce sexually through external fertilization or, more uncommonly, asexually in cases where both male and female reproductive organs are present in one organism. External fertilization occurs when a male arthropod encases its sperm in a pouch that is deposited directly into a female arthropod or sent free to be taken up by a female. The offspring of most species of arthropods begin as eggs, then hatch from these and enter a larval stage. In many arthropods, such as crabs, you can see these eggs attached to the hard abdomen. The larvae undergo metamorphosis, sometimes emerging from a cocoon during the pupal stage, to progress into adulthood. Water presents interesting challenges to the offspring of aquatic arthropods. Throughout this process of metamorphosis, young marine arthropods drift through the sea and can cover great distances in this manner. They have no control over where they end up before they reach adulthood.
