Finish the Painting: A Billionaire's Manifestojerelhill
Jerel D. Hill is a man living two lives. By day, he is an average USA track athlete and by night, a struggling entrepreneur that lives with his head in the clouds. Jerel has always questioned his reality, but the truth is far beyond his imagination.
A recurring dream inspires Jerel to embark on a transformational journey to become a billionaire and Olympic gold medalist. During the recurrent dream, Jerel walks the streets of New York City with thick, gold necklaces around his neck as crowds of on-lookers gaze in awe. After awakening from the dream in a state of confusion about its meaning, Jerel sets out on his adventure.
During his journey, Jerel encounters his worst fear – settling for less than what he imagined possible for himself. In moments of adversity, he continues to keep his faith in God to overcome the obstacles he faces.
Amid “dream-killers” attempting to bring him “back-to-reality”, Jerel escapes their pessimism by staying focused on creating a multi-billion-dollar professional track and field industry and winning Olympic gold at the 2020 Tokyo Games.
With the state of the sport ripe for disruption, Jerel’s vision becomes crystal clear. He makes it his obligation, duty and responsibility to put athletes over profit and reconstruct a deeply-flawed system.
One summer day in a bookstore in Shreveport, Louisiana, Jerel has a chance encounter with a stranger who prophecies to him about his future. “You’re about lead an entire nation,” said the stranger. It was then that Jerel realized that the mission he was on was much bigger than himself.
After conquering his demons of doubt, Jerel becomes relentless to manifest his vision.
The document provides examples of themes from Around the World in 80 Days including resourcefulness, perseverance, the importance of timekeeping, kindness towards others, selflessness, honesty, dealing with obstacles, and the importance of relationships. It cites passages showing Phileas Fogg and Passepartout problem-solving creatively, persisting in their journey despite delays, keeping precise time, helping those in need, prioritizing others over themselves, being trustworthy, overcoming challenges, and the bond between a master and his servant.
The document describes experiences from the perspective of a Muni bus traveling through San Francisco on different routes, providing warmth and transportation to passengers on cold nights, witnessing friendly interactions between passengers, and going up and down the steep hills while the passengers enjoy the scenery. The bus has been serving San Francisco for a long time and welcomes all people aboard as it travels across the diverse and ever-changing city.
The document provides context about Victorian England, including details on social classes, currency, and locations mentioned in Great Expectations such as cathedrals and prisons. It examines the lives of the upper, middle, and working classes. The working class often lived in poor conditions and had little access to education. The document also references Pip's opportunity to go to London to study with Mrs. Havisham's help, contrasting it with the lack of opportunities for many working class children of the time.

A girl survived attacks from monsters in medieval times and fled to the Village of Shadows. She lived with her uncle after her father died protecting her from a meteorite. Depressed and alone, she spent her days drinking, hoping someone would take her away. A traveler told her she had untapped strength and potential as an adventurer. She started training and avenged her father by killing the Lich. Word spread of her power, though the King of Creatures now targeted her. She continued preparing for adventures by working at a refinery and learning life's lessons from new friends.

This document summarizes and discusses different perspectives on education presented in the readings. It discusses two methods of education - one aimed at developing general ideas and one focused on practical skills. It also examines perspectives on narrow vs broad aims for education. The document then summarizes sections from the book describing two characters' differing educational experiences - one finding his education depressing and considered obsolete, while the other attended a school for gifted students.
The document summarizes key passages from the first chapter of the novel "My Son's Story" that discuss several important themes:
1) Recognition and identity as the main character encounters his father for the first time.
2) The importance of education and how it shapes the main character's views on equality and social responsibility.
3) The central role that work and community play in the characters' lives and sense of purpose.
4) The complex relational dynamics between family members and how relationships change over time.

Lecture 03: A Gentle Introduction to TheoryPatrick Mooney
This document provides an overview of literary theory and how to write a college-level English paper. It discusses that theory questions common sense views about meaning, writing, and literature. It notes that a good paper includes an argument supported by evidence from the primary text and analysis showing why the argument is relevant. It should not rely on plot summary or obvious claims. The document also provides definitions and examples of literary terms and techniques like metaphor, irony, and genre. It discusses Foucault's views on how discourse is controlled and distributed in a society through various rules and systems of exclusion.

Lecture 12 - What's Eula Worth? (9 May 2012)
1. Lecture 12: What’s Eula Worth?
English 104A
UC Santa Barbara
Spring 2012
9 May 2012
“I earned [it] myself, weaving at night after Henry and the
chaps was asleep. Some of the ladies in Jefferson would save
up string and such and give it to me and I would weave things
and sell them. I earned that money a little at a time […] I would
take the can outen the chimney and count it now and then
while it was making up enough to buy my chaps some shoes
for next winter. […] I would know them five dollars […] I would
know it if I was to see it again.”
— Mrs. Armstid in The Hamlet, part 4, ch. 1, sec. 2
2. Money
“‘All right,’ he says. And he reaches down and hauls
out the money and pays the two hundred and
eighteen dollars and fifty-two cents in cash and
asks for a receipt.” (Chick Mallison on p. 23; ch. 1)
“Back then, no Jefferson, Mississippi boy ever had
a whole dollar at one time very often, let alone four
at the same time. So we had to trade with him.”
(Chick Mallison on p. 56; ch. 3)
“Aleck Sander said No, that we were all white boys
taking advantage of him because he was a Negro
by asking him to let us do the same thing he did.”
(56)
3. “Anybody with a car: To run out to Varner’s
store quick and get Flem Snopes. He will pay
you, whatever you charge and whatever extry –
ten dollars extry – twenty extry –” (Ratliff
reporting Mink Snopes’s courtroom speech on
p. 87; ch. 4)
“when the oil company got through cussing Mr
[Eck] Snopes for being a grown man with no
more sense than that, they even gave Mrs.
Snopes a thousand dollars to show they were
sorry for her even if she had married a fool.”
(Chick Mallison on p. 117; ch. 7)
Wallstreet Panic Snopes: “I want to learn how
to count money.” (135; ch. 7)
4. “You boys have got Flem Snopes wrong. He’s got
too much respect and reverence not jest for money
but for sharpness too, to outrage and debase one of
them by jest crude robbing and stealing the other
one.” (Gavin Stevens, quoting Ratliff on p. 147, ch.
8)
And again:
“‘I tell you, you got Flem all wrong, all of you have. I
tell you, he aint just got respect for money: he’s got
active’ (he always said active for actual, though, in
this case I believe his choice was better than
Webster’s) ‘reverence for it. The last thing he would
ever do is hurt that bank. Because any bank whether
it’s hisn or not stands for money, and the last thing
he would ever do is to insult and degrade money by
mishandling it.’” (Gavin quoting Ratliff, p. 150; ch. 8)
5. Observations about the body
Gavin, repeating Ratliff, on Eck’s heroism: “And still
without sense enough to jump, let alone Snopes enough,
not even knowing yet that even Jody Varner wasn’t going
to pay him anything for saving even a Varner Negro.” (p.
33; ch. 2) Gavin’s response: “‘Dont tell me they gave him
the dollar,’ I said – all right: cried – to Ratliff. ‘Dont tell me
that!’” (34)
●
I.O. Snopes has a “business” receiving compensation for
mules “accidentally” killed by the railroad. (262; ch. 16)
●
When his employee, who “actively” places the mules in
front of the train, is accidentally killed, the railroad
compensates his widow with $8500. (243; ch. 16)
6. At the Cotillion Ball
“Gowan said it was the way Mrs Snopes and Mr
de Spain began to dance together. […] Mrs
Snopes was dancing that way, letting Mr de Spain
get her into dancing that way in public, simply
because she was alive and not ashamed of it like
maybe right now or even for the last two weeks Mr
de Spain and Uncle Gavin had been ashamed;
was what she was and looked the way she looked
and wasn’t ashamed of it and not afraid or
ashamed, that the little puny people fallen back
speechless and aghast in a shocked circle around
them, could understand [...]”
7. “[…] all the other little doomed mean cowardly
married and unmarried husbands looking
aghast and outraged in order to keep one
another from seeing that what they really
wanted to do was cry, weep because they were
not that brave, each one knowing that even if
there was no other man on earth, let alone in
that ball room, they still could not have
survived, let alone matched or coped with, that
splendor, that splendid unshame.” (Chick
Mallison, pp. 78-9, ch. 3)
8. Eula’s Value (preliminary notes)
●
Flem has already traded on Eula to become
superintendent of the power plant. (p. 145; ch. 8)
After Byron Snopes’s bank embezzlement: “Though
it was not until two days later that the head auditor
was ready to commit himself roughly as to how
much money was missing. […] on the third day
Ratliff said, though I didn’t know what he meant
then: ‘That’s how much it was, was it? At least we
know now jest how much Miz Flem Snopes is
worth.” (Chick Mallison on pp. 125-6; ch. 7)
9. The furniture salesman’s wife, to Eula: “You’re a
trader. I’ll make a trade with you.” (Gavin
Stevens on p. 233; ch. 15)
“‘To be exactly what he needed to exactly fit
exactly what he was going to be tomorrow after
it was announced: a vice president’s wife and
child along with the rest of the vice president’s
furniture in the vice president’s house? Is that
what you tried to tell me?’”
“‘Something like that,’ she said.
“‘Just something like that,’ I said. ‘Because
that’s not enough.’” (Gavin on p. 234; ch. 15)
10. “Not catching his wife with Manfred de Spain yet is
like that twenty-dollar gold piece pinned to your
undershirt on your first maiden trip to what you hope
is going to be a Memphis whorehouse. He dont need
to unpin it yet.” (Chick Mallison, repeating Ratliff’s
words, on p. 30; ch. 1)
“So I can’t think of but one Snopes object that he’s
got left.”
“All right,” I said. “I’ll bite.”
“That-ere twenty-dollar gold piece.”
“What twenty-dollar gold piece?”
“Dont you remember what I said that day, about
how when a country boy makes his first Sad-dy night
trip to Memphis, that-ere twenty-dollar bill he wears
pinned inside his undershirt so he can at least get
back home?” (pp. 159-60; ch. 8)
11. Prognostications
Gavin, to V.K. Ratliff: “‘To be president of it
himself,’ I said. ‘No!’ I said. ‘It cant be! It must
not be!’ But he was just watching me.
‘Nonsense!’ I said.
“‘Why nonsense?’ he said.
“‘Because, to use what you call that twentydollar gold piece, he’s got to use his wife, too.
Do you mean to tell me you believe for one
moment that his wife will side with him against
Manfred de Spain?’” (160; ch. 8)
