In a school as massive as Boston University, it is difficult for any one individual to become a prominent, widely recognized social figure. Yet somehow, people all over campus recognize junior Barron Roth. Donning a backwards black hat, a long black t-shirt with “Official” plastered in all caps across the front, white jeans, and white Vans with no socks, Barron sails past the windows of Boston University’s West Campus dining hall on a sky blue skateboard. A tiny gold cross swings from his neck…

On 04/01/2016, at approximately 1920 hours, Officer Bowman and your affiant were requested to respond to the Family Dollar to speak with an individual whose purse had been stolen. Officers arrived on scene and spoke with the 11 year old female victim. The victim placed her purse in a designated area for book bags which is a policy of the store to deter and lower the amount of thefts. The victim placed her purse there believing she was following the rules and proceeded to shop for diapers for…

On Tuesday, October 20, 2015, I spent the day at Media Elementary School in the Rose Tree Media School District assisting 4th-grade teacher Mrs. Williamson. Mrs. Williamson is a teacher with 23 years of experience and she spent most her career with Media Elementary School. The school day for the students begins at 9:00 am and ends at 3:30 pm. I was supposed to report at 8:45 am as the teacher began preparing for the class few minutes before the students entered the classroom. I reached there at…

calculation. When taking significant figures into account for a problem, exact numbers will not affect them either. When performing a measurement on a digital instrument, read and record all of the numbers as displayed, including zeros after the decimal point. But on a scaled instrument, estimate one more figure than you can actually read from the scale. This accounts for the inaccuracies and errors that occur naturally. Accuracy is “a measure of the deviation of the measured value from the…

position. In the meeting, there are two types of conflict preferences that arise, competition and avoidance. John has clearly been taking the stance of avoiding the issues that he had previously with Denise as he states “ I have never raised, this point before , but you won’t confront…

Mr. Beasley reaches this point through the avoidance and stubbornness. By killing his wife’s dog, Meecham receives the divorce papers. Though his avoidance of the court summons and the decisions that follow, Meecham changes his life forever. All this because he refused to handle…

The Necklace In my literary analysis of the Neckless the Author presents a women who was born into a life of mediocracy but longed for an existence of privilege and prestige. Mme. Loisel is described as even though pretty and charming had nothing of monetary means that made her look effluent in the eyes of upper class. In paragraphs one through four she describes her failure to measure up to what her expectations are of the rich and famous. She wishes to be adored by distinguished gentlemen…

Without the mother’s direct insight, it creates sympathy towards the daughter. If it was told from a third person point of view, the author would not be able to convey the emotional connection the reader develops with the daughter. If the work was told from the third person point of view, that would contradict the overall purpose to convey the conflicting personal relationship between the mother and daughter that is conducted by the author. If…

contribution margin per unit below budget, led to the total contribution margin being much lower than budgeted. Other factors could be discussed here––for example, it seems that the PalmKid did not achieve much success with a three digit price point––selling price was budgeted at $149 but dropped to $102. At the same time, variable costs increased. This could have been due to a marketing push that did not succeed. 14-33 (20 min.) Market-share and market-size variances (continuation of…
