He was a "tight-fisted" man who held money as close to his heart as Scrooge does. When Marley appears to Scrooge, Dickens describes the chain which Marley has "clasped around his middle". It is a chain made of "cash-boxes, keys, padlocks, ledgers, deeds and heavy purses wrought in steel". These symbolise Marley's selfish, covetous and obsessive personality. It is a representation of a message that Scrooge will only receive through the things he values most; money and…

The aim of the Stress Concentration Experiment was to observe the stress concentration factor/feature for a set of mild steel specimens with various irregularities in each sample. These irregularities or “stress-raisers” include any notches and holes which vary in size (radius) and placement on the specimen (edge notches or holes) that may have an effect on the flow of stress. With the use of a Hounsfield 50 kN electrically operated tensile testing machine and 12 1-mm thick mild steel test…

that you don’t have to be concerned with if it will be a problem. You asked me that, and it’s ok. I keep telling you that it is about progress not perfection. I feel I understand you enough to where you being emotional is not a problem. I genuinely like that you’re emotional, most men aren’t. We live in a society where we tell our boys and men not to be, and I don’t think that is healthy for the soul. I’m not saying be out here crying every 5 minutes, but being able to express your…

It is a well known fact that living in San Francisco is expensive. Apartment rent in a decent 1 or 2 berooms in a good neighborhood costs fortune, there are tons of nice but expensive restaurants and all the nice small and unique boutiques sell three digits and four digits shoes and dresses.

And,…

Good looking, charming, intelligent, well educated. Many people with these traits go on to make a positive name for themselves; however, one man took this concept in a different direction. Ted Bundy exploited his good looks and charm to his advantage taking the lives of young women and girls who were too trusting, and too vulnerable. And his path of terror made him one of the most memorable serial killers of all time. Ted Bundy’s full name was Theodore Robert Cowell, he was born at the…

Research and technology have increased awareness of addiction processes work, with advanced achievement in the discovery and the mapping of neurotransmitters and hormones which strongly affect our feelings and inclinations.

BERNARDONE: (Roaring) Home! FRANCIS: My home is here – here in the square. And these men and women who have gathered to hear me...they are my father and mother. (Old Bernardone went wild. Grabbing his son round the waist with both arms, he tried to wrench him away from the column.) I'm not going. I have no father, no mother. I have no home – only…

He turned a little sideways in his chair to drink his mug of coffee. At the table on his left the man with the strident voice was still talking remorselessly away. A young woman who was perhaps his secretary, and who was sitting with her back to Winston, was listening to him and seemed to be eagerly agreeing with everything that he said. From time to time Winston caught some such remark as 'I think you're so right, I do so agree with you', uttered in a youthful and rather silly feminine voice.…
