The Theme Of Main Themes In Matched By Ally Condie
"Our time together feels like a storm, like a wild wind and rain, like something too big to handle but
too powerful to escape." (pg. 267) This quote is from an amazing Dystopian Young– Adult Fiction
Novel, Matched by Ally Condie. The themes of this book are lies and deceit, courage, and choices.
The main characters are Cassia Maria Reyes, Xander Thomas Carrow, Ky Markham, and Emily. The
book is set in Oria Province in The Society. In Matched, at the age of 17, teenagers are matched to
the person they will spend the rest of their lives with and at her Match Banquet, Cassia is Matched
to her best friend, Xander. When she get her microcard with all the information about her Match,
instead of seeing Xander's face on it, she sees Ky Markham's, an Aberration, a low status person.
She becomes increasingly intrigued about knowing better her accidental Match and eventually,
spending more time together, they un–coincidentally get matched into being partners in their hiking
hours. They eventually fall in love but it is obviously forbidden by The Society, so the ... Show more

Ky is an Aberration (second lowest level in the social caste) because his father committed an
Infraction and has to suffer the consequences like never entering the Matching Pool (which means
he can never be matched). He is usually alone until Cassia starts spending time with him after she
saw him on her microcard. He finds himself falling hard for her and tells her his whole story of his
life and how he became an Aberration. In the end, he teaches Cassia to write cursive and tells her
that he loves her. "Cassia. I know which life is my real one now, no matter what happens. It's the one
with you. For some reason, knowing that even one person knows my story makes things different.
Maybe it's like the poem says. Maybe this is my way of not going gentle. I love you." (pg.

Choosing A Major And An Idea Of A Career
Choosing a major and an idea of a career you want to pursue, is not an easy choice. There is a lot of
thinking that goes into deciding what you want to study and what you want to become in the future.
Most people are not positive even once they have entered college as to what it is for sure they want
to do. This MyPlan assessment was extremely informative in what my skills were and how I could
use them. Going to the Career Center on February 5 really helped me to understand what my results
meant and what I could take out of this assessment. We took four tests, a personality, personal
interest, skills, and values test. For my personality test report, there were 4 different categories
looked at to come up with a combined census of what my personality is. You were either,
extroverted or introverted, sensor or intuitive, thinker or feeler, and judger or perceiver. My results
showed that I was ESTJ. Which means that I am extroverted, sensor, thinker, and a judger.
Extroverts basically respond very well to social gatherings and like to be around people. They are
usually very talkative and tend to work well in teams. Sensors seek specific answers to specific
questions. Usually they do not have a very wide imagination and are more realistic. Thinkers believe
that it is important to be right and honest with themselves than it is to be liked. A thinker seeks
fairness and tend to be tough–minded. Judgers appreciate organizations, punctuality, order,
schedules, etc. Judgers tend to

Comparing The Hunger Games, Sheet 'AndThe Perfect Match'
Dystopian novels are becoming more and more common these days, with more well known series
including The Hunger Games, Divergent, Fahrenheit 451, and so many more. A commonality
between all of these is the way their society is controlled by the government. Most of the time, the
citizens have no control over anything because the government makes the decisions for everyone.
The two short stories used in this paper are both dystopian short stories and show a lot about how
modern society acts and what it could turn into. "The Perfect Match" by Hen Liu focuses on a world
where everyone is connected to each other through a handy gadget named Tilly, created by
Centillion Software. "Ten With a Flag" by Joseph Paul Haines is about a society where ... Show

Similarly, "Ten With a Flag" has a deep reliance on technology; however, it is used in a different
way. In this story, instead of Tilly, the citizens have something called Central. Central is a little
different than Tilly, though, in regards to what it is used for. Instead of Central being a personal
assistant, it is the main grid that everyone is connected to. Their cars operate with Central to drive
the citizens where they need to go, Central keeps track of messages, it picks out their wardrobe, and
does a lot of things for the individual, much like Tilly can do in the other story. The main issue this
story talks about is how the government uses Central to determine how helpful a child will be to
society before it has even been born. Human Services uses Central to "predict the future based off
the child's cellular past and other environmental factors" (Haines). Once the child's usefulness has
been determined, they tell the parents what rank their child is in. If the child has a higher rank than
the parents, the parents will receive a promotion. If the child has any abnormality Central marks it
with a flag and the parents are given the option to terminate the pregnancy. However, what Human
Services does not tell the parents is that their request to terminate the pregnancy is not always
accepted. After all, "the flag is an option, not a right" (Haines).

Characteristics Of An Oligopoly
It's called an oligopoly. It's not a regular market... It's a market in which they control the prices and
they've been doing it for years.
Richard Miller
The quote above explains the characteristics of an oligopoly in comparison to other market
structures. Miller suggests the nature of the market is uncommon and that prices are rigid.
The hypothesis mentioned in the introduction supports this assumption on the real estate market in
Hanoi. However, it can be questioned whether the real estate market is an oligopoly.
2.1 Market structure
In economics, a market structure refers to the characteristics of a market that influence the behavior
of firms within an industry. These include number of firms, market power, level and forms of
competition, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In oligopoly, industries are dominated by a small number of large firms, though in any one industry
the firms are likely to vary in size. The concentration ratios of these firms tend to be fairly high. This
means that, for example, the largest four firms in the industry accounts for 70% of the market share.
The implication of this is that firms in oligopoly are interdependent. The actions of one firm will
directly affect the others. Each of the large firms in the industry has to try and predict the actions of
the others. They may collude to avoid this.
2.2.3 High barriers to entry/exit
Barriers to entry are high. Oligopolies often maintain their position of dominance in a market
because other potential rivals are unable to enter the industry. The hurdles that prevent other firms
from entering the industry are called barriers to entry. These barriers could include government
licenses, economies of scale, patents and access to technology. In addition, many established
oligopolies spend enormous sums on product differentiation and advertising, making it difficult for
new firms to match such expenditures. High barriers to entry allow firms to make economic profits
in the long–run.

Employer 401 Case Study
We often ask the question, "How does our 401(k) plan stack up?" When you are an employee, you
will consider items such as the investment choices, administration fees, or loan terms. However, if
you are an owner, the most important thing to think about may be how to contribute the highest
amount you can under Section 415. For 2016, the defined contribution plan annual addition limit
without catch–up is $53,000, and will rise to $54,000 next year.
The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) subjects qualified employer plans to compliance testing.
Employer 401(k) plans must pass the "actual deferral percentage" (ADP) test, and if there are
employer match contributions, the "actual contribution percentage" (ACP) test. However, safe
harbor plans are not subject to discrimination testing if the plan sponsor contributes a pre–approved
safe harbor employer contribution.
Safe harbor plans guarantee that the Highly Compensated Employees (HCEs) will be able to
contribute the maximum deferral amount of $18,000, but not necessarily the maximum annual
addition under Code Section 415. In those cases, the triple stack match formula may be the solution,
as follows:
Stack One: 100% of the first 3% of deferrals, plus 50% on the next 2% of deferrals. That means that
if an employee defers 5%, they will receive the maximum 4% of compensation match on the first ...

In addition to the requirements discussed above, it is important to remember that none of the stacked
matches can require a 1,000 hour of work or employment at year end. Stack One also cannot be
subject to vesting, as it must be fully vested to qualify as safe harbor. Provisions for the triple stack
match must be in place before the start of the plan year in which they are

Jodi Picoult's Nineteen Minutes
For the most part, I enjoyed Nineteen Minutes. It was an extremely emotional novel about a teen
boy that killed ten people in his high school. Describing the school shooting was not the book's main
idea, the real purpose was to explain the events leading up to and the events after the shooting. In
my opinion, Jodi Picoult started the book out beautifully when she described how long the school
shooting was by relating it to basic everyday things that most people could relate to.
Most of Nineteen Minutes took place after the shooting, when the community was trying to recover
and rebuild trust after the horrific deed of Peter Houghton. Honestly, at first I was shocked because I
couldn't understand why Jodi Picoult kept backing up Peter and

The Role Of Parenthood In Jodi Picoult's Nineteen Minutes
"In nineteen minutes, you can mow the front lawn, color your hair, watch a third of a hockey game.
You can bake scones or get a tooth filled by a dentist.... Or, as Peter Houghton knows... in nineteen

Jodi Picoult, Peter had been bullied his whole life, and he wanted revenge. Peter felt the only way to
get revenge was to pull the trigger towards classmates and teachers.
Nineteen Minutes takes place in a small town known as Sterling. In Sterling, everybody knows
everybody. You stop at an intersection, and you know the person stopped next to you. You see your
neighbors at the grocery store, and your teacher at Olive Garden. So obviously, everyone in the

parenthood, and it is secretly eating both of them up internally.
Conflict was created between Peter and his parents. Peter did not meet the standards his deceased
brother held. Peter's parents were disappointed in the difference between sons. To adulterate Peter's
situation, he was constantly bullied by classmates in and out of school. One day Peter could not
handle it anymore, and the last string of the braided rope broke.
The conflict Peter was struggling with himself was impossible to conquer without support from
others, and Peter never truly had the support he needed to thrive. Peter was suffering from post–
traumatic stress disorder as a result of chronic victimization. Peter had a foggy ending, which made
it seem like the bullying would never stop, so he figured he was the one who had to stop

I am reading Matched by Ally Condie and I am on page 208. This book is about a young girl named
Cassia Reyes, living in the Society. In the Society they have perfected most everything that was
wrong with the world and they regulated and decide everything. The hopes of this process is to
ensure a long healthy life with those you love surrounding you always. Cassia has never questioned
or broke the Society's rules. Around the time a teenage girl turns seventeen they are invited to a

One characteristic of Cassia is that she is curious. After, seeing Ky's face on the micro card and
learning about his status, Cassia becomes very curious. She asks Ky's questions about his past that
are considered inappropriate. She asks him to teach her to write because wonders about the past and
she wants to be able to create. Ky gives her little pieces of his past at a time and Cassia is always
wanting more of it. Cassia's grandfather gave her and artifact with a forbidden poem inside of it. The
poem tell the reader to fight. Cassia never thought of her grandfather as a rebel, so it confuses her
that he gave it to her. After reading the poem and being with Ky, Cassia starts to see things
differently and to question the Society's choices. She wonders about her match and about why the
Society took everyone's artifacts. SHe wonders how things might have been if Ky were not an
aberration and is indeed her match. Another characteristic of Cassia is that she is strong. When she
was younger, Cassia's grandfather told her that she is strong enough to not take the calming, green
tablet. She has stuck to this and has never taken the tablet. It is a common thing to take the tablet so
I believe that not taking it makes her strong. Another reason Cassia is strong is because the does so

Advantages And Disadvantages Of Matching System
3.4 Evaluation
As a basis for this logical framework first–order logic can be used. For evaluation stratification can
also be applied. It is a bottom–up evaluation phenomenon.
For evaluating matching rules there is need to have a hold on aggregation operations. To find the
best match first compute all possible matches with their matching confidence.
4 Challenges
There are mainly three drawbacks of rule–based techniques:
1. They cannot utilize data instances efficiently even though they conceal ample amount of
information like distribution, value format, frequency of words, and so on that would help in
matching process.
2. In some cases writing matching rules is very difficult due to incomplete information while in
learning based approach using appropriate learning methods such as Naïve Bayes make
"probabilistic rules" which can be done easily.
3. It cannot exploit previous matching efforts to serve the current matchings. Hence, systems that
uses only rule–based techniques face difficulties learning from the past, to improve over time.
Due to these reasons learning approach is developed and followed.

A new self–configuring and adaptive schema matching system has been proposed. It uses a
combination of schema and matrix features as well as different matching rules to construct and adapt
matching processes automatically. This framework offers some advantages like: correct methods for
dealing with schemas that are semantically rich like ontologies; extensible matchers; and semi–
automated derivation of the rules that are constructed for matching based on already mapped sources
like identifying constraints, synonyms etc. For diverse match problems this approach returns good
results as well as it is a good competitor of manually tuned approaches. It can be further enhanced to
support more complicated

Informative Speech On Content Implementation Plan Essay
Content Implementation Plan I am appreciative for the valuable information I obtained from this
course. I intend to incorporate the researched practices into my reading program. Allington
addressed several critical components of instruction necessary to ensure reading interventions are
delivered with the best intentions and students are responding successfully to the reading
interventions. However, my "aha–moments" included the topics: the volume of reading, matching
students' independent and instructional reading levels to appropriate texts, expert interventionist,
matching intervention to the classroom curriculum, and group size. Volume of Reading I agree with
Allington, the volume of reading is a critical component which supports the quantity of extensive
reading, required to ensure struggling readers accuracy and fluency rates accelerate to develop
proficient readers. Often the reading interventions focus on specific reading skills such as phonics,
word recognition, fluency (speed), and etc. The research suggests the intervention time be dedicated
to continuous reading versus using the majority of the time working on individual skills. Allington
provided me the critical awareness and the importance of the quantity of extensive reading. I
definitely will redesign my intervention time to reflect the suggested amount of time to focus on
individual reading skills and extensive reading, as Allington suggested. Therefore, I look forward to

Montgomery Vs Murray Persuasive Speech
The men's French Open Final was a tale of two players: Novak Djokovic, the undisputed best player
in the world, and Andy Murray, the man who rarely gets it done in big matches.
In Sunday's Final, Murray came out guns blazing, winning the first set 6–3 by playing solidly and
maintaining a controlled aggression. Toward the end of the first set, there was a controversial
moment when the umpire overruled a call and awarded Murray a point rather than replaying it. The
crowd, already overwhelmingly on Djokovic's side, really jumped on the official. Despite winning
the point, Murray seemed frazzled by the incident.
Djokovic got off to a hot start in the second set, while Murray seemed out of it. The match continued
in that manner with Djokovic winning the second set 6–1 and the third 6–2. After finally deciding to
resurface, Murray was competitive in the fourth set, but ultimately lost the set 6–4 to lose the match.

Court Tennis Research Paper
As tennis players we all strive to have the very best strokes and hit the ball as hard and as accurately
as possible – EVERY single time. However, this strategy is not always the best and most intelligent
one to employ. Tennis is a very unique sport that takes a lot of physical and mental strength, along
with unyielding strategical discipline. In order to be a successful player you must resist the
temptation of trying to rip every single ball past or through your opponent on the majority of your
shots. There are less than 1% of players who can do this and still win the majority of their matches.
In other words, the selection of different shots and playing styles are all like a different type of
poison, each with an accompanying antidote. There are no shots in tennis that do not have an
antidote. After playing tennis for even a short period of time you will begin to notice that there are

You must also ask yourself, "Which one of my shots is better than this guy or gal?" Sometimes these
don't match up due to a lack of shot variety at your disposal, but testing your new strokes is
imperative for developing a reliable stroke. In my opinion, players with the most shot variety will
win more matches than a person who is very good at hitting one type of shot. I highly encourage
experimenting with newly learned shots, as there is no other way to develop shot reliability. While
doing this you must think of performance–based results as opposed to outcome–based results. If you
are too focused on the outcome of your shots during a match you are putting yourself under a lot of
unnecessary mental

The Process Of Matching Hospitals And Residents
Problem
Initial Solution
The process of matching hospitals and residents was chaotic and confusing before the NRMP began
to be used in 1952. The main way hospitals chose medical students was to extend an offer to the
student as early as they could. The demand of the hospitals was greater than the number of students
looking for residencies, prompting "considerable competition among hospitals for interns."1 This
competition lead to hospitals presenting students offers earlier than others could. With offers so
early, hospitals could not know the final class standings or grades of the students by the time they
finished school.1 In the most extreme cases, hospitals would send offers to students two years
preceding the internship.1 In 1926, the ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The small adjustments began in 1945; the first of which would help students by resolving "that
hospitals should allow students 10 days after an offer had been made to consider whether to accept
or reject it."1 In the year 1946, another change was made and students were given up to eight days
to respond.1 In 1949, the AAMC proposed "that appointments should be made by telegram at 12:01
A.M., November 15, with applicants not required to accept or reject them until 12:00 noon the same
day. Even this 12–hour waiting period was rejected by the American Hospital Association (AHA) as
too long"1. They agreed on the "Appointment of Interns" which contained that "no specified waiting
period after 12:01 A.M. is obligatory"3. Even after these changes were made, it was clear that there
were still problems in the matching process. "In order to avoid these problems and the costs they
imposed, it was proposed, and ultimately agreed, that a more centralized matching procedure should
be tried"1.
Second Iteration of the Solution
Ultimately, the students were unhappy with modified original system. Their decisions had to be
made quickly and without the ability to consider other offers. The hospitals had to select students
before the students had developed any notable skills or even knew their specialty. Named as a form
of "congestion" and "market failure" by Roth in 2008, it was evident that changes in the residency
matching program needed to be made. Thus,

Nikhil was much more devoted. Whereas Moushumi seemed to feel as if she was trapped and felt

admit: that the affair causes her to feel strangely at peace. The complication of it calming her"(Lahiri

listening to what her parents were telling her to do. Dmitri, unfortunately for their marriage, became
the solution for her.
Despite all they have in common, Moushumi is clearly not the right one for Nikhil. Later on

Oligopoly : The Four Theories Of Market Structure
Market structure is defined as the particular environment of a firm, the characteristics of which
influence the firm's pricing and output decisions. There are four theories of market structure. These
theories are: Pure competition Monopolistic competition Oligopoly Monopoly
Each of these theories produce some type of consumer behavior if the firm raises the price or if it
reduces the price. The theory of pure competition is a theory that is built on four assumptions:
(1.)There are many sellers and many buyers, none of which is large in relation to total sales or
purchases. (2.) Each firm produces and sells a homogeneous product. (3.) Buyers and sellers have
all relevant information about prices, product quality, sources of supply, and so forth. (4.) Firms
have easy entry and exit. A pure competitive firm is a price taker. A price taker is a seller that does
not have the ability to control the price of the product it sells; it takes the price determined in the
market. The pure competitive firm is a price taker because a firm is restrained from being anything
but a price taker if it finds itself one among many firms where its supply is small relative to the total
market supply, and it sells a homogeneous product in a an environment where buyers and sellers
have all relevant information. Examples of perfect competition include some agricultural markets
and a small subset of the

Allocative Efficiency and Dynamic Efficiency
Efficiency is to fulfil the needs and wants of consumers by making optimal use of scarce limited
resources. There are several meanings of efficiency and all are linked to how well a market shares
scarce resources to satisfy consumers. The two of the terms within efficiency going to illustrate are
allocative efficiency and dynamic efficiency. Allocative efficiency Allocative efficiency looks into
the goods and services that match the changing consumers' needs and preferences, reflecting on the
price willing to pay. Allocative efficiency is reached when there is no one made better off without
making someone else worse off. The condition required for allocative efficiency is when the value in
which consumers place on a good or service equals the cost of resources being used up in
production, total economic welfare is maximised. In the diagram to the side, at P1 and output Q1 the
market is balanced, at this point the total area of producer and consumer surplus is maximised. If
suppliers would limit the output shown on Q2 and increase the market price to P2, sellers will be
gaining more producer surplus by expanding their profit margins. By doing this there would be a
bigger loss of consumer surplus. Therefore to sum this diagram P2, Q2 is not an allocative efficient
distribution of resources for this market, whereas P1, Q1 he market stability price is considered to be
allocative efficient. There are many diverse market structures at presence. Allocative efficiency is a

19 Minutes, By Jodi Picoult
19 minutes is a book written by Jodi Picoult that describes a school shooting. This book was written
in a pretty unique way, because instead of having story told by sequential events from one
perspective, it is told from many perspectives, from different times, and in different orders. For
example, one moment you could be reading from the point of view of the shooter during the event,
and the next you're reading from the point of view of a student 6 months after. The author uses
different points of view and a non–linear timeline to tell a unique story. Jodi Picoult uses different
points in time for each chapter, but it isn't a random order. Whenever there is a change in time, it is
because it logically follows what you just read. What ends ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net
...
During the book, you get to see through the eyes of the shooter, the judge, the judge's daughter, the
shooter's parents, the shooter's lawyer, and the main detective on the case. I might even be missing a
few, but these viewpoints were the most used. This ties in well with my previous point where I said
the author used different points in time. Not only do you get to see different views, but also you get
to see each viewpoint at many different times. One chapter you could be reading about what the
judge was doing before her daughter was born, and the next chapter you could be reading about
what the lawyer and his family is going through near the end of the case. There are a few characters
and moments that I think showcase how well these viewpoints were done in this book. One of them
is the different viewpoints during the shooting. While the first time the shooting is described we
only see from the detective, later on we get to witness it again from other's eyes. This line is from
Patrick's view, "Turning a corner, Patrick slipped on blood and heard another gunshot, this one loud
enough to ring her ears." (Picoult, 22) and this line is from Josie's view, "As the gun fires, it ripper
two stripes of her skin from the base of her thumb. Her hands jerked upwards." (Picoult, 440). These
two lines are talking about the same gun shot, but Patrick's line is from the beginning of the book,
and Josie's line is from the very end. Another part of the book that I think benefited well from
different viewpoints is the relationship between Josie and her mother, Alex. The two don't have a
very deep relationship in the beginning, which is shown by Josie many times, "The last place Josie
wanted to go was out to dinner with her mother." (Picoult, 150). Josie usually tries to avoid her
mother and thinks she doesn't understand her. From Alex's view, she feels like she hasn't been a very
good mother to Josie and often is

Suffering And Redemption In Andersen's The Little Mermaid
In this essay, I will be exploring the themes of sexuality, suffering, and redemption in Andersen's:
'The Little Match Girl' 1 (1845); The Steadfast Tin Soldier' 2 (1838), and 'The Little Mermaid' 3
(1837). This will be through the analysis of: the Little Mermaid's transformation into becoming a
human, and her death; the scene where the Little Match Girl burns her matches; the Tin Soldier's
river journey and when he is destroyed in the pan along with the Paper Doll.
Within Andersen's fairy–tale 'The Little Mermaid', the aforementioned themes are presented through
the mermaid's transformation into becoming a human. For example, she sacrifices her tail despite
the warning from the Sea Witch that 'every step you take will feel like you're treading ... Show more
Unlike 'The Little Mermaid' and 'The Little Match Girl', the ending to this tale is not as happy
compared to the other two texts but still provides a rather resolved symbolic ending to the tale. From
the beginning of the tale, the reader already feels empathy for the Tin Soldier since he 'stood as
firmly on one leg as the others did on two'2 (page 99), and the reader is quickly made aware of the
importance of this one tin soldier as 'he's the one who turned out to be remarkable'2 (page 99).
Although his disability is mostly ignored for the remainder of the tale, at the ending the Tin Soldier
mistakes the Paper Doll for having one leg due to the position she is in and relates to her on that
matter. Soon after the two are destroyed, Davis theorises that the ending can be read as a
'punishment for his willingness to desire somebody physically perfect and therefore unlike
himself'8. This proves that in 'The Steadfast Tin Soldier', suffering goes hand in hand with the
soldier's sexuality as the reason why he suffers is because of his eagerness to meet the doll again.
The same idea can be applied to 'The Little Mermaid' because the mermaid too experiences
suffering for her sexuality since she chose to become disabled to be with her prince. To summarise,
James studied Andersen's works and concluded that 'Andersen's extraordinary imagination created
dream–like

Tilly, taking her out of his ear. He also asks Ellen to take hers off, however she grew very frustrated
with Sai's request and asked for the date to be over immediately. This only fueled Sai's rebellious

Tilly does. From taking down foreign governments to negatively optimizing searches, Tilly and

inconsistencies and suspicion . He then decided to leave her in his home because he was "going out

Personal Narrative: Kansas State Championship
I have never won a Kansas State Kids Wrestling state Championship out of my nine years of
wrestling. But, this year I was determined that it would change.
My first match at state was my easiest. I took down my opponent named Bryce Wells from Derby
right away to get an early lead 2–0. I then was able to lock up my favorite move the cradle and
somehow I turned it into a weird move. In 2 minutes and 32 seconds I got the pin to finish my
match.
My second match was my second easiest. I took him down my opponent named Rowdy Martin from
Ulysses and worked my cross arm series from turk, to cradle, to butch. Then, in 1 minute I finally
pinned him with a cradle.
My next match and my last for the first day was in the semis against Johnny Akin from East Kansas.
I took him down really quick and worked my cradle, butcher, and turk on him to tech fall him 15–0.

There was about 15 seconds left and I had been working my cross arm series with him but not
getting anything. At the end of the first period it was 2–0.
It was his choice wince he won the toss and chose bottom. I started my crossface again working it
but nothing was there for me to do. Finally I had a chance and took it, I got a cross face cradle and
took him to his back with 30 seconds left in the second period he was on his back all of those 30
seconds. At the end of the second it was 5–0. I was starting to get tired since I used a lot of my
energy to keep a hold of my grip.
I had the choice in the third and chose bottom also. I did a quick sit out and switch than he caught
me flat and was able to get the legs in but no points. He quickly started throwing across cross faces
but they weren't lightly either. They were fists coming across really hard getting a couple of
knuckles to my nose. The first one hit and was a sting to my nose the second was a terrible

Analysis Of The Little Matchstick Girl
The Little Matchstick Girl is a short story written by a danish author named Han Christian Andersen
about a small childs death. In this story the child is sent by her father on an extremly cold and snowy
night to sell matchsticks. Throughout the story she ends not being able to sell any any and is afraid
to go home. Anyone reading can easily immerse themselves in this story as the author gives a
descriptive narrative about the events leading up to her death. Readers should take a look at this
story and really look at the overall theme, setting, and language. This story has an over all theme of
saddness which is explained by the situations that take place during the course of the story. In the
beginning of the story the child is sent out in the cold while its snowing. She happens to be out there
with her mothers slippers which are too large for her. While walking along, a slipper is stolen by a
boy who wants it for his own selfish reasons. As the story goes on it explains that she is sent out by
her father who appears to be abusive. The story mentions how her father will land blows for not
being able to sell matchsticks to make money for the family. One can only wonder about her
parents, maybe they are physically unable to go out themselves. Is her father projecting his anger
onto her because of his own failures?. Not succeeding at it she ends up trying to go into survival
mode and warm herself with the matches, fails, and freezes to death. Her death seems as

I went into the locker room of the club and went to a quiet place to think over my game. As I
thought through I realized that he really isn't a hard opponent for me. He played a good game and I
lost all my focus becuase I thought I had the win in my hands. My father walks in the room and tells
me to, "Take this as a learning experience". I did not know what he meant until I realized all that I
did wrong. I realized that I can always play well once I keep my focus throughout the whole match.
This match taught me that I must always keep my focus no matter what. I beat my opponent 11–4 in
the first game because I kept my focus throughout the game. The rest of the match would have been
exactly like that if I simply just kept my focus. I listened to my father and took this moment as a
learning experience. For the next couple of weeks, I started to change my level of focus. I played
with old men who were fairly easy to play with, however, I tried to keep my focus throughout the
whole match even though I could play around with these old men and still beat them. This little drill
helped me overcome my nervousness and my lack of focus during important matches that I had in
the future. Even to this date I have found that this little change in my mentality during squash
matches has helped me during tough situations and has got me to my high rank that I am today.
When I was younger, I did not have a strong

"It is logical to assume that a firm wishing to sell more goods or service will drop its price. At a
lower price, the quantity demanded by consumers will increase" (James & Keith, 2008, p. 139). On
the other hand, non–price competition is the strategy in which company uses to increase its market
share by offering such quality of goods or service, customer focus, or other sustainable competitive
benefit other than price. This strategy is such brand management, advertising, or sales promotion
(Brue & McConnell, 2002).
With the price competition, when one firm lower its price to sell more goods or service, other firms
will match the fall in price in order to remain their market share. If the firms decide to lower prices
further, a price war will be happened and it results in firms' bankruptcy (James & Keith, 2008).
"Firms will engage in non–price competition, in spite of the additional costs involved, because it is
usually more profitable than selling for a lower price, and avoids the risk of a price war" (Brue &
McConnell, 2002). This is the reason why some firms prefer to use non–price competition rather
than price competition.
Three different ways in which Airlines compete for their market share: ❖ Price leadership: This is a
type of collusion which Airline industry uses to avoid the uncertainties of competition. This is when
one firm has the greatest market share and the firms with lower market shares follow the

Cheating In Professional Sports Essay
One thing about sports that everyone agrees on is that they are fun to watch. Another thing that most
agree on is that cheaters get what they deserve. However, the amount of cheating has increased
significantly in professional sports over recent years, thus making them not so fun to watch by some.
Cheating occurs through secret deals, bad trades, and use of drugs to gain a field advantage,
therefore sports that most people have grown to love have become less entertaining, and more
violent to the public. Changes need to be made to professional sports in order to restore it's former
glory.
There has been a lot of athletic scandals in colleges across the country. These scandals have been as
a result of the coaches and athletic directors failing to take the full force of the law and giving their
players freedom to do everything even if it is against the law. One of these fatal scandals is the

the coaches of the team. The incident left one player dead and the other imprisoned for 35 years.

reader second guessing themselves the whole time. The reactions were endless. The beautiful love
story between Nina and Caleb had the audience yearning for more (Picoult 1–351). Even when
difficult times came about within the relationship, the ultimate want was for Nina and Caleb to work
it out. When Nathaniel exposed the horrific event that took place against him, jaws were on the floor

I peeled my eyes away from the sparkly face and chuckled to myself when I realized how long I had

smile, and quickly opened the door before she could say something to stymie my decision to keep
the mask. I respect my mom, but I can be right sometimes... right?
The evening dragged by slowly, probably because all I wanted was to be stuck in my room with that
mask. I wanted to add jewels to the bare line and make retractable, blinking eyelids. Dozens of times
my parents caught me zoning out while they were talking, and I was met with a sigh from my mom
every time. It seems like all she does is sigh these days, how can she have any air left to keep her
alive if she's always breathing out so heavily? I grinned at this thought, but quickly bent my head
and disguised it as a cough before she could ask what I was thinking.

The mask was on my nightstand, propped upon my lamp. It frowned at me with its pouty mouth,
and the eyes flickered with a yellow glow, even though the lamp was not on. Startled once again, I
crept closer, but stopped short and laughed.

which produces people to become ignorant by being told how to act, they stop thinking how they
live their lives. Society trust in what their phones tell them is best for them and what will make them
