or more discussing the questions below. Remember to begin your paper with an engaging introduction and clear thesis statement, develop each point in the body of your paper using examples and quotes from the stories, and conclude your paper with a restatement of your thesis and closing remarks. Also, be sure to maintain your credibility by including in-text citations and a reference list correctly formatted in APA style.
Setting: In many ways the two short stories are set in radically different times and places. There is, however, at least one commonality that both settings share. Discuss the differences and at least one similarity.
Characters:
“Love in L.A.:” Describe Jake, the main character. What kind of man is he? Is he the story’s protagonist or antagonist? Explain your answer. Describe Mariana. How does she perceive her interactions with Jake? In what ways are his intentions different from hers?
“A Good Man Is Hard to Find:” Discuss the personalities and motives (i.e., what does each seem to
want
?) of the following characters: the grandmother, Bailey, the children’s mother, the children, Red Sammy Butts, The Misfit, and the other two escaped criminals.
Symbolism:
“Love in L.A.:” Both the car and freeway are symbolic in this story. What is the deeper meaning of each?
“A Good Man Is Hard to Find:” What do each of these symbolize: the grandmother’s hat, the town of Toomsboro (hint: “Toom” sounds strikingly similar to another word) and The Misfit’s car?
Themes: What are the main themes/messages of each piece? What, in other words, do you think the authors, Dagoberto Gilb and Flannery O’Connor, are trying to communicate about life and human nature in their respective stories?
Tone: What does Gilb’s tone seem to reveal about his attitude toward the characters and plot in “Love in L.A.?” Likewise, what does O’Connor’s tone seem to tell us about her attitude toward the characters and plot in “A Good Man Is Hard to Find?”
Irony: In what ways do the titles of both stories contain irony?
Moral Codes: (A moral code is an individual’s internal set of beliefs and principles that guides their conduct toward others. Everyone has a moral code, although not everyone’s behavior is necessarily “moral” or law-abiding.)
“Love in L.A.:” What is Jakes’ moral code? Elaborate on your answer, using at least two examples from the story to support your opinion.
“A Good Man Is Hard to Find:” By what moral codes do the grandmother and The Misfit live by? What external influences (upbringing, faith, experiences, etc.) have shaped their codes? Discuss the “goodness” (or lack thereof) of both characters. Do they or anyone else in the story qualify as a “good man?” Why or why not?
Final Thoughts: Literature intersects with many areas of our lives, often providing commentary on cultural norms, and—in the case of the O’Connor story—the influence of religion on individuals and societies. In what ways has rea.

This needs to be APA and no wikipedia
You will be analyzing two short stories, “Battle Royal” (which is the first chapter in Ralph Ellison’s novel,
Invisible Man
) and “The Birthmark.” As you read, reflect on the ways each depicts characters that are deemed socially unacceptable because of their outward appearances.

Remember to begin your paper with an engaging introduction and clear thesis statement, develop each point in the body of your paper using examples and quotes from the stories, and conclude your paper with a restatement of your thesis and closing remarks. Also, be sure to maintain your credibility by including in-text citations and a reference list correctly formatted in APA style.
Setting: Describe the settings of both pieces and identify how the eras in which they take place—with their distinct societal attitudes and customs—affect the main characters?
Characters:
“Battle Royal:” Discuss the young man and his grandfather. Why do we never learn the young man’s name? What do the grandfather’s dying words reveal about him?
“The Birthmark:” Describe the main characters: Aylmer, Georgiana and Aminadab. What is important to each?
Point of View: In which point of view (first- or third-person) is each piece told? If the point of view in “Battle Royal” was changed, would it have made the story more effective, or less so?
Symbolism:
“Battle Royal:” Analyze the deeper meaning of the following: the “battle royal” itself, the naked blonde, and the young man’s dream at the end of the story.
“The Birthmark:” What does Georgiana’s birthmark signify, first to her and then to Aylmer? What does alchemy represent in the story?
Themes: What are the main themes/messages of each piece? What, in other words, do you think the authors, Ralph Ellison and Nathaniel Hawthorne, are trying to communicate about life and human nature in their respective stories?
Fear: What role does fear play in both pieces?
Discrimination: Both stories address physical appearance, specifically one’s skin, and the way people may discriminate against others because of external characteristics they deem inferior. Compare and contrast how discrimination and prejudice are presented in “Battle Royal” and “The Birthmark.”
Final Thoughts: Author Tim O’Brien wrote, "That's what fiction is for. It's for getting at the truth when the truth isn't sufficient for the truth." Talk about how literature might give us “truer” insights into the human experience by appealing to our senses, emotions and empathy. Describe a situation in which you or someone you know may have been discriminated against because of appearance, gender, race or another attribute. What did the experience teach you?

Sample Topics for Essay #11. In an essay explain the light O.docx
Sample Topics for Essay #1
1. In an essay explain the light OR darkness/cloud imagery in "The Jilting of Granny Weatherall." Distinguish types of “light” or levels of darkness that are used and discuss what role these play and the significance these descriptions offer toward helping readers interpret the story.
1. For example, explain Tobe’s motivation for staying all those years in “A Rose for Emily,” and what that says about society at the time; OR the true significance of the mother’s last line in “Town & Country Lovers”; OR O’Connor’s portrayal of the Misfit in “A Good Man is Hard to Find.” Are there things that any of the stories suggest to you that we did not discuss in class? Develop one for an essay.
1. Take a really close look at the lists of “things” that “they carried” in the story of that name, especially in 2 or 3 characters we DID NOT talk about in class. Does O’Brien do a good job of getting across the emotional issues and symbolic baggage of these characters?
1. What does “The Red Convertible” reveal about Native American life on the reservation. Comment on things such as Henry & Lyman’s mother or sister: what is their role, or the role of women among and in the Native American community. In other words look closely at the narrative to see what Erdrich reveals about being in their situation.
1. Examine the theme of passion, along with uses of symbolism and the treatment of gender in Kate Chopin’s story, "The Storm" (available online). Does what happens here resemble some of what occurs in “Town & Country Lovers?” If so, how? If not, does it describe “love” or is something else at work here? Provide sufficient explanation for your point of view.
1. Examine the use of SYMBOLISM (i.e, water, landscape, specific setting, a use of color, OR another element) in detail in one story that we read, or compare/contrast the use of the same symbol between two stories that we’ve discussed.
1. Select an aspect of a story that we did not cover in depth during class discussion to explain or interpret your ideas about what the author/story may be saying about their culture or society. What does looking at that component add to your understanding of the story? The message?
1. The story “Assembly Line” by B. Traven, is on the course Moodle site. It deals with the clash of cultures when a NY businessman meets a native Indian in southern Mexico. Although written many years ago, are there parallels with the characters in this story and the corporate world of “profit” and “bottom line” today?
1. Offer an analysis of a character’s motivation, especially if it really doesn’t seem clear or easy to interpret, OR contrast your views with those that may have been expressed in class about a character that we discussed. BE SURE TO SUPPORT & EXPLAIN YOUR IDEAS/VIEWS.
***These are “suggested” topics. You can come up w/one of your own or re-work some ideas that these samples offer. Essays should be typed or word-processed, approx. 3-4 pag.
Discuss the present state of groupware implementation in your orga.docx
Discuss the present state of groupware implementation in your organization
As you prepare your 3 page paper, you'll probably want to think about the kind of work that you do, the kind of work that your colleagues do, and what you know from the readings about information processing systems in general and what kinds of work groupware is best at supporting. You'll probably also want to think about how much trouble it is to change things in your organization in any event, about the kind of supervisory climate and environment you work in, about the kind of resources you have available to you, and about the kinds of demands being made upon you for day-to-day performance. The readings are to give you some information about how other people have dealt with groupware; it's up to you to apply this information to your own settings and come to some conclusions.
List of Writing Prompts
For students:
There are three prompts below each with four texts. For your literary analysis essay, choose
ONE prompt and text pairing that interests you. Then, take a look at the guiding questions for
the text you choose. You don’t necessarily need to answer all of these questions in your paper.
The questions are there to help get you thinking in a direction that will be more likely to lead
you to a successful literary analysis.
PROMPT 1.
Write an analysis of a key character in a literary work. Focus on two or three key actions of that
character. Discuss the character’s motivations and decisions in terms you can support with clear
evidence from a critical reading of the text. Consider whether this character’s actions fit
together or contradict each other. You may also want to consider whether or not any other
characters in the story are aware of this conflict, and if so, how they influence the character you
are writing about.
Literary Works (choose one):
“Interpreter of Maladies” (Jhumpa Lahiri, 1999)
Guiding Questions:
1. How does a new outsider community member like Mrs. Das influence Mr. Kapasi, who
seems to have become bored with his life and his role in the community?
2. How does Mr. Kapasi’s desire for Mrs. Das make him unable to understand Mrs. Das’
desires, leading to his failure to fulfill his role as the Interpreter of Maladies?
3. How do the Das family’s actions surrounding their children show that their desires or
interests do not accord with their obligations?
“What You Pawn, I Will Redeem” (Sherman Alexie, 2003)
Guiding Questions:
1. How does the grandmother’s property at the pawn shop help to define the narrator’s
desires and feeling of obligation to recover it? Why is it so important?
2. How does the character accomplish his objective, and how is this surprising considering
all of the unfortunate events and bad decisions he makes along the way?
3. How do the other characters--the Aleuts, the pawn shop owner, the waitress, the police
officer, the other Indians at the bar--each play an im.

Final Thoughts: Author Tim O’Brien wrote, "That's what fiction is for. It's for getting at the truth when the truth isn't sufficient for the truth." Talk about how literature might give us “truer” insights into the human experience by appealing to our senses, emotions and empathy. Describe a situation in which you or someone you know may have been discriminated against because of appearance, gender, race or another attribute. What did the experience teach you

List of Writing Prompts
For students:
There are three prompts below each with four texts. For your literary analysis essay, choose
ONE prompt and text pairing that interests you. Then, take a look at the guiding questions for
the text you choose. You don’t necessarily need to answer all of these questions in your paper.
The questions are there to help get you thinking in a direction that will be more likely to lead
you to a successful literary analysis.
PROMPT 1.
Write an analysis of a key character in a literary work. Focus on two or three key actions of that
character. Discuss the character’s motivations and decisions in terms you can support with clear
evidence from a critical reading of the text. Consider whether this character’s actions fit
together or contradict each other. You may also want to consider whether or not any other
characters in the story are aware of this conflict, and if so, how they influence the character you
are writing about.
Literary Works (choose one):
“Interpreter of Maladies” (Jhumpa Lahiri, 1999)
Guiding Questions:
1. How does a new outsider community member like Mrs. Das influence Mr. Kapasi, who

NOTE: All submission posting times are based on midnight Central Time.
For this assignment, you will be analyzing two more short stories, “Battle Royal” (which is the first chapter in Ralph Ellison’s novel,
Invisible Man
) and “The Birthmark.” As you read, reflect on the ways each depicts characters that are deemed socially unacceptable because of their outward appearances.
Please write a
comparison/contrast essay of 1000 words
or more discussing the questions below. Remember to begin your paper with an engaging introduction and clear thesis statement, develop each point in the body of your paper using examples and quotes from the stories, and conclude your paper with a restatement of your thesis and closing remarks. Also, be sure to maintain your credibility by including in-text citations and a reference list correctly formatted in APA style.
Setting: Describe the settings of both pieces and identify how the eras in which they take place—with their distinct societal attitudes and customs—affect the main characters?
Characters:
“Battle Royal:” Discuss the young man and his grandfather. Why do we never learn the young man’s name? What do the grandfather’s dying words reveal about him?
“The Birthmark:” Describe the main characters: Aylmer, Georgiana and Aminadab. What is important to each?
Point of View: In which point of view (first- or third-person) is each piece told? If the point of view in “Battle Royal” was changed, would it have made the story more effective, or less so?
Symbolism:
“Battle Royal:” Analyze the deeper meaning of the following: the “battle royal” itself, the naked blonde, and the young man’s dream at the end of the story.
“The Birthmark:” What does Georgiana’s birthmark signify, first to her and then to Aylmer? What does alchemy represent in the story?
Themes: What are the main themes/messages of each piece? What, in other words, do you think the authors, Ralph Ellison and Nathaniel Hawthorne, are trying to communicate about life and human nature in their respective stories?
Fear: What role does fear play in both pieces?
Discrimination: Both stories address physical appearance, specifically one’s skin, and the way people may discriminate against others because of external characteristics they deem inferior. Compare and contrast how discrimination and prejudice are presented in “Battle Royal” and “The Birthmark.”
Final Thoughts: Author Tim O’Brien wrote, "That's what fiction is for. It's for getting at the truth when the truth isn't sufficient for the truth." Talk about how literature might give us “truer” insights into the human experience by appealing to our senses, emotions and empathy.

The French Revolution Class 9 Study Material pdf free download
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Can someone write this essay for me ASAP in APA.docx
- 1. Can someone write this comparison/contrast essay for me ASAP in APA style? For your first Individual Project, you will be analyzing two short stories, “Love in L.A.” and “A Good Man Is Hard to Find,” in terms of their similarities and differences.Please write a comparison/contrast essay of 1000 words or more discussing the questions below. Remember to begin your paper with an engaging introduction and clear thesis statement, develop each point in the body of your paper using examples and quotes from the stories, and conclude your paper with a restatement of your thesis and closing remarks. Also, be sure to maintain your credibility by including in-text citations and a reference list correctly formatted in APA style.Setting: In many ways the two short stories are set in radically different times and places. There is, however, at least one commonality that both settings share. Discuss the differences and at least similarity.Characters:“Love in L.A.:” Describe Jake, the main character. What kind of man is he? Is he the story’s protagonist or antagonist? Explain your answer. Describe Mariana. How does she perceive her interactions with Jake? In what ways are his intentions different from hers?“A Good Man Is Hard to Find:” Discuss the personalities and motives (i.e., what does each seem to want?) of the following characters: the grandmother, Bailey, the children’s mother, the children, Red Sammy Butts, The Misfit, and the other two escaped criminals.Symbolism:“Love in L.A.:” Both the car and freeway are symbolic in this story. What is the deeper meaning of each?“A Good Man Is Hard to Find:” What do each of these symbolize: the grandmother’s hat, the town of Toomsboro (hint: “Toom” sounds strikingly similar to another word) and The Misfit’s car?Themes: What are the main themes/messages of each piece? What, in other words, do you think the authors, Dagoberto Gilb and Flannery O’Connor, are trying to communicate about life and human nature in their respective stories?Tone: What does Gilb’s tone seem to reveal about his attitude toward the characters and plot in “Love in L.A.?” Likewise, what does O’Connor’s tone seem to tell us about her attitude toward the characters and plot in “A Good Man Is Hard to Find?”Irony: In what ways do the titles of both stories contain irony?Moral Codes: (A moral code is an individual’s internal set of beliefs and principles that guides their conduct toward others. Everyone has a moral code, although not everyone’s behavior is necessarily “moral” or law-abiding.)“Love in L.A.:” What is Jakes’ moral code? Elaborate on your answer, using at least two examples from the story to your opinion.“A Good Man Is Hard to Find:” By what moral codes do the grandmother and The Misfit live by? What external influences (upbringing, faith, experiences, etc.) have shaped
- 2. their codes? Discuss the “goodness” (or lack thereof) of both characters. Do they or anyone else in the story qualify as a “good man?” Why or why not?Final Thoughts: Literature intersects with many areas of our lives, often providing commentary on cultural norms, and—in the case of the O’Connor story—the influence of religion on individuals and societies. In what ways has reading “Love in L.A.” and “A Good Man Is Hard to Find” impacted your own views on love, “goodness” and religious faith? Do you need a similar assignment done for you from scratch? We have qualified writers to help you.
