At first glance, the building looks like a giant basket, complete with handles. The company’s founder, Dave Longaberger, oversaw the design, stating, “if they can put a man on the moon, they can certainly build a building that’s shaped like a basket.” He was able to create this eye-catching metaphor by integrating the parts of a building…

    moon accomplished bringing in scientific treasure, political leverage, but possibly the most important aspect of it was the fact that it united the nation. William J Cook described this as follows: “A moon landing was to be attempted on the fifth Apollo flight. In an otherwise awful year, it would be a singular event that brought Americans together, however briefly” (Cook 2). It was clear that John F. Kennedy’s speech was powerful, because he not only accomplished the original goal of sending a…
