These are the images from Shutterstock I would like. They are being used in a tri-fold brochure so the res don’t need to be extreme as long as I can edit them without degrading the image. I will mostly just be changing the ratio of images to fit my template. If I could have these by 7-Jul that would be great because I need to get them over to Frank at PERS 532P for printing. Thanks in…

This transition of power is the focal point between both Barbara Ehrenreich,PhD, author of “Your Local News-- Dateline Deli”, and Fareed Zakaria, PhD, who wrote “The Rise of the Rest”. It’s Ehrenreich’s theory on how outsourcing is causing America to fall behind that help the reader get a better understanding of Zakaria’s statement that, Americans are living through a power shift called “the rise of the rest”.

The short story “Teacher” by Guy Vanderhaeghe, supports the idea of what authority and power is. It shows how it can affect others, by its uses and abuses of it. The author portrays totalitarianism by using Mrs. Dollen, where she has absolute power over her grade 6 students. Sometimes, it is not such a good thing to want to control and take advantage of everything because it might just come right back. Vanderhaeghe goes in depth with Mrs. Dollen’s physical description, which helps her maintain control.…
It is worth mentioning that most of the quotations are from large Symphonic works of composers who were living and writing concomitantly with Mahler. Berio himself in an interview assumes the emphasis placed on 20th century music, most specifically in the last one hundred years. Although the preference for modern works points towards a post-tonal harmonic structure, the majority of quotations are of a more moderate nature, such as Stravinsky, Ravel and Debussy rather than the full-blown atonality of Schoenberg, Webern and Boulez. To a certain point, it seems contradictory that an avant-garde composer such as Berio has emphasized most pre-serial works.…

The quest theme has been apparent in literature throughout societies and time periods as an enduring concept that allows for widespread uses. In William Faulkner’s As I Lay Dying, the Bundren family embarks on a physical journey that places them within the confines of an absurd existence. Their quest, one that subjugates them to the trials and tribulations that would weather the toughest stones, is trekked for a mutual goal of each family member: to bury their dead matriarch, Addie. In forcing the family on this emigration to a seemingly unreachable destination, Faulkner pushes them to the very limits of humanity and constrains them to not only accomplish what they set out to do, but also to introspectively look at why they are doing it, why…
Edward Hirsch recently gave a presentation at Aquinas College and went over a few of his poems and talked to the audience about himself and his poetry. Having Edward for our next new candidate would be a great twist on season 20 of The Bachelor. Although he is rather different from the usual handsome and fit guys that are typically on The Bachelor, this twist is exactly what The Bachelor needs. The Bachelor usually picks men that are young, good-looking, well-known, and are seeking a woman for a relationship. The Bachelor intrigues people who watch it because of the handsome men and how they choose a partner from the show.…
The Simon principle is an economic assessment used to define a country’s immigration policy. The principle states that if the marginal immigrant makes a non-negative contribution to the treasury you continue to admit immigrants until the contribution goes to zero. Liberals and conservatives support the principle. Liberals believe immigrants are acceptable as long as they benefit the country’s economy positively. Conservatives believe countries should have no issue with immigrants as long as the country is not a welfare state.…

1 in D major, “Titan,” was performed next. It was much longer in duration than the first piece. It showed uniqueness in that it incorporated everyday sounds into the music, such as bulge calls, bird songs, and dance tunes, which provided for a very wide variety of tone colors. The symphony began with a thick-textured undertone in the strings and a two-note “hunting call” in the woodwinds, which persisted throughout the piece. Also present was a bright fanfare in the trumpets, followed by a light descending melody played by the entire orchestra.…

The Question of Hu by Jonathan D. Spence reconstructs the journey of Father Jean-Francois Foucquet and John Hu from China to Europe during mid-seventeenth century. Throughout the book, Spence addresses several issues on cultural differences between China and Europe, with their varied definitions of sanity, moral obligation, and social status.
