Bomb disposal is the process in which explosive devices are rendered safe and are properly disposed of. Bomb disposal teams, more commonly referred to as Bomb Squads have the job to identify, defuse and dispose of an explosive device. Bomb squads can be found in each branch of military as well as in our local and state police. Bomb disposal teams in the navy and airforce tend to work on the disposal of explosive chemicals more than they do explosive devices. The Army and Marines are trained more…

“A Rose for Emily” Critical Analysis “In good fiction, certain of the details will tend to accumulate meaning from the action of the story itself, and when this happens they become symbolic in the way they work” (O’Connor). In William Faulkner’s “A Rose for Emily,” many components that may be initially dismissed in a passage, through intelligent writing, gather a deeper meaning. Homer, for example, appears to be just another tragedy to strike the pathetic life of Emily Grierson. However, many…

live. At first she could not cook, clean or do hair but Mister used physical abuse to “train” her. She followed all of his rules because she knew what would happen to her if she didn’t. One of his rules was that she was never allowed to touch the mailbox. She could not get mail out of the box for any reason. He even told her that he fixed the box and that he could tell if she touched it. Years later Shug Avery (Mister’s Mistress) came along and got the mail out of the box. There was a letter in…

just him, Christine and their son Holt until next hunting season when clients would fill the lodges. For ten years, he had lived for the fall when he could guide hunters into the mountains. But now he felt edgy. Unsatisfied. He yanked open the mailbox and reached inside for the pile of envelopes.

dinner. I responded in kind with quick phone call, I could hardly see the numbers on the phone, covered with tears of gratitude. In return she only asked that if I ever was able, to help others as she helped me. I soon found another endowment in the mailbox, just large enough for a few small birthday gifts for a five year old little girl and Christmas that arrived two days later. Attempts to show my appreciation went unanswered, the number I had for her was disconnected. I often wonder what…

The male protagonist experiences a wide variety of sexism and oppression within the film from women. At the start of the film, he is strolling his pram and opening his mailbox. At this moment a female asks him about the building meeting but seems to disregard his opinion and backhandedly says ‘I should really be talking to your wife’. Seeing females as a more serious or smarter gender in this society and that men’s opinions do not matter. When he was on his bike riding on the road, a stranger…

the hope two friends have to rekindle their weakened friendship by sending each other letters in the mail. The first two stanzas are dedicated to the narrator who describes him sending the letter. The narrator decides to place the letter in their mailbox on an ominous, wet night, creating a feeling of optimism and hopefulness. The poet uses the phrase, "I have walked coatless from the house"(2), as a symbol to illustrate the vulnerability and anxiety the narrator had. From the first to second…

Regarding posting flyers for house council executive board candidates, there was not a history of mandating resident assistants to put up flyers for candidates ever before. When I was a sophomore student running for the president position in Johnson, Lewis, and Thatcher cluster's (abbreviated as JOLT) house council, I literally had to put up my flyers myself with my own hands in each hall and conversed with every passenger for election. This holds the truth to every other candidate as well. For…

horizons by introducing us to other RAs and residents within Lower Quad. We have been able to connect with many different people through the programs she and others in our community have hosted. My personal favorite program that Sade’ hosted was a mailbox program. Throughout first semester, many of us talked about how cool it would be to have mailboxes outside our doors. Sade’ then began to collect cereal boxes and once she had enough, we gathered to decorate and create our mailboxes which…
