    I wish that I own a vocal phonation to sing Narayan Gopal’s songs. I know I can’t sing. I have a deep note of voice sinking into the throat. When I want to throw out my voice to sing, I have my voice stuck in the larger soundboard of the adam’s apple. My voice is a low voice and it sounds a little coarse. When the vocal cords in the larynx vibrate, the vibration turns into a bass range, among the lowest range of voice of a male vocal tract. I have a strong desire sing, sometimes once in a…

    There are a lot of poems in the world. I chose two to compare, so we could see some different types of poetry. But exactly how would you compare them? The poems “Jabberwocky” by Lewis Carroll, and “Two Limericks” by Edward Lear are fairly different. We’ll be comparing these poems by three main points: alliteration, rhyme, and repetition. The poem “Jabberwocky” has quite a few alliterative occurrences, such as: “Callooh callay”. Or even “snicker snack”. Due to “Two Limericks” being so short, it…

    ended Dec. 11, 2008, when he was arrested amid allegations he operated a $50 billion Ponzi scheme. He pleaded guilty to 11 felony counts on March 12, 2009, and was sentenced on June 29, 2009, to the maximum sentence of 150 years behind bars. The “Ponzi Scheme,” named after the 1920’s swindler Charles Ponzi, is a ploy where earlier investors are paid with funds given by subsequent investors. In a Ponzi scheme, claims of underlying investments are bogus; very few, if any, actual physical assets or…

    The jolly tone juxtaposes the emotion of regret that is seen from stanza 3. This can be seen when the internal rhyme scheme of “Just so: my foe” is used to show that he is faltering because he feels both guilty and regretful. We as readers could infer that a jolly rhyme scheme is used in order to make fun of the Boer War as Thomas Hardy disagreed with it. Moreover, Lord Tennyson uses no structure in ‘The Charge of the Light Brigade’ to signify…

    The Madoff Scandal At one point in time owning the last name of Madoff was a very powerful and respected title, on a cold winter’s day that all changed. When my Father Bernie Madoff came and confessed to my brother and me about a multibillion scandal he has been running since the early 1990’s it changed everything. This grand truth swept the legs from under me. I remembered that it came as such a blow that I had to sit down. I could not even process the magnitude of what he had just told me.…

    Amanda Ford Ms. Drosdick Language Arts, per. 6 12/26/17 Roald Dahl. 26 years after his death, and almost everyone knows the name Roald Dahl. In life he was nicknamed the children's champion, and for good reason. His wonderfully fantastical children's books have fueled the imaginations of generations of children; If you've never read Roald Dahl, then you've never had a childhood. Although more well known for his books, his poetry is no less impressive, and this is proved by "Television", a piece…
