The Longest Time

update technology to meet these standards. An improvement in technology will increase efficiency and effectiveness throughout the plant and a plan to implement these changes should be done over the span of 3 to 5 years. This time frame to update technology allows enough time for the updates to be made effectively and the new machines to be produced. The administrative offices are shabby, disorganized, and run inefficiently. Improving technology here will increase efficiency and effectiveness as…

“Hills like White Elephants,” by Ernest Hemmingway and, “The Story of an Hour,” by Kate Chopin are both short stories that take place in short periods of time and focus on the relationship of a couple. Though the stories differ greatly, they are similar in that they both include the use of a train as a symbol and in their focus of the women in the relationships introduced. The trains in both stories are the most significant similarity because they represent the different futures that Jig and Mrs…

Time is one of the very few things every human on planet Earth has in common. Everyone has to deal with it whether they experience good times or bad. In James Schuyler 's "Hymn to Life," time is represented through many different things and in many different means. This poem describes and fully entangles both the good and the bad that time gives us here throughout our lives. Schuyler manages to offer up conflicting views on time throughout the duration of the poem, and because of this he creates…

present with all that comes our way. A while back we buried a friend. He had been sick, but his death came sooner than expected. We were barely able to keep up with the harsh pace of his illness and still struggle with his passing. Around the same time, I found a little kitten on the street, not even two weeks old, thrown away with the garbage. A carefully planned day turned chaotic the moment I picked him up. Life is not a program we can schedule for. We cannot will away events once they have…

same person they were with the arm, is proof that “the substance whereof personal self consisted at one time may be varied at another” (p. 15). Thus, if the physical is not what defines personal identity because of its variance through time is inconsistent with personal identity, it would be mayhap be possible to attribute personal identity to an immaterial soul, one that is consistent through time. But Locke would not concur, and not due to the incompatibility of the soul with personal…

Safety and security is a big time subject in the Probation Department. It is a way to make sure that all Probation Officers are safe and alive and well. One thing I have found out is that we need to be sure that we are both safe and secure in every situation. Today I Recruit McKnight was given a paper from Instructor Limbrick on safety and security because I failed to follow protocol due to lack of judgement and made a mistake by reporting without a partner. It was irresponsible of me to report…

materials had to be utilized in a way that was transformative. The materials could not be identifiable. During this project, I constantly made and edited sketches because sometimes the materials were recognizable; thus, they needed to be reworked. Each time I found a solution to hindrance, the sculpture morphed into a new and more improved form. The progress I made kept me motivated and I was satisfied with the…

The old saying “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” is so true here. Success can be as simple as being a better person, some who gives up their free time to make a positive impact to the people around you. Success can also take the form of being rich and successful in the public eye. As for me, success looks a little different. When I envision a successful person I see my father and my mother. My dad…

differences we all have with our family, they’re the ones who will always be there for us. They will lift us up when we are down and they’ll straighten our path when our road becomes a little curvy. They will love us unconditionally, no matter how many times you mess up. And that’s the one really good thing about family. You can scream, rip each other’s head off, and mistreat each other, but deep down, nothing can change the love we have in our hearts. Each of the families in “Planned…

completed and the results were recorded as accurately as possible. The results we obtained seemed to be in favor of the hypothesis we had set out initially. It seems to show that as time increased, the concentration of the “drug” left in the blood system decreased. It also shows that, the higher the concentration at a specific time interval, the higher the absorbance value will be. A reason for this is because light absorbance is related to color, as well as, concentration, in that, when the…
