The lawn boy had recently turned 12 years old and his grandmother had given him a ride-on mower that was recently owned by his grandfather. Although it took him a few minutes to figure out how to work this mower he later figured it out and he started to mow his very small lawn. After he was done with his lawn, someone approached him and asked him if he would mow their lawn for $20. That was when his business started. After he was done with mowing that lawn, several people approached him and

The poem “Saturday’s Child” and the book The Secret Life of Bees have many things in common. In “Saturday’s Child” Countee Cullen uses the personification of death and imagery to portray the loss of innocence, which relates to Lily Owens in The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd.

Don Kerr’s "Editing the Prairie" is a poem about the various landscapes, or lack thereof in Saskatchewan. Kerr presents the prairie in a sarcastic, critical way that many prairie people can make connections to. Though his outlook on the prairies seems rather bleak, Kerr’s poem presents very strong sarcasm, point of view, and effectively use parallels between poem structure and prairie topography. In order to further understand and appreciate “Editing the Prairie”, one must critically analyze how these components mentioned above play a role in this poem.

His journey began by receiving his degree in physics, which led him to no job and therefore, he worked as an electrician. Afterwards, it states, “but I ultimately earned a Ph.D. in the history of political thought,” (104) which really just led him to a serious thought of what he wanted to do with his life, because he wasn’t quite satisfied with it. He then fell back to the mechanic lifestyle (105) in which he states, “The physicality of it, and the clear specificity of what the project required of me, was a balm for feelings of professional panic” (105). Because Crawford had left the mechanic ‘life’ in his teenage years, he had a hard time fixing some bikes; he eventually had to contact Fred to receive guidance. It states, “Over the next six months I spent a lot of time at Fred’s shop, learning,” (108) and even after being offered a huge salary in a job as a director, he kept returning back to the mechanic shop. Crawford states a strong statement, saying, “Fred’s life as an independent tradesman gave me an image of liberality that I kept coming back to” (109). He then chose liberty, opened a small shop, alongside Tommy and began his new journey as a self-employed business owner. Because the shop “supported a spirit of experimentation,” (111) Crawford increased his knowledge in many aspects, for example, he learned why someone should never let a bearing spin when drying it, how to bill, the amount of attention a bike needs, and finally, he realized that as committed he is to the bike, this commitment and responsibility transfers over to others or the owners. For example, Crawford was simply going to hand over a bike that wasn’t necessarily completely fixed, but instead “he felt compelled to get to the bottom of things” (123). It states, “The bike is for

Billy should start by saving $6 every week and put in a bank such as Synchrony Bank, which has an annual interest rate of 1.05% Since Billy is a lawn mower, he should be able to generate at least $6

The Holocaust can be seen as one of the most devastating genocide that occurred in history and that is well known in many places worldwide. One may assume that those who played a part in the acts done by the Nazis in Germany may have been mentally disturbed and/or sick, evil people. However, the novel Ordinary Men: Reserve Police Battalion 101 and the Final Solution in Poland by Christopher R. Browning provides another alternative to this statement. Browning provides the reader with the idea that anyone is capable of becoming a murderer, especially when the opportunity presents itself. In his book he attempts to prove this statement through multiple ideas and theories and also provides events which took place to analyze some of those ideas.

Ordinary Men is the disconcerting examination of how a typical unit of middle-aged reserve policemen became active participants in the slaughter of tens of thousands of Polish Jews.

Posted on the New York TImes a young author who goes by Michael Pollon, who decided to share th world about the interest facts about lawns. Even though people step on grass, mow the lawn, or decoreate, he was curious in why people do it. In the article he stated the imporantance different lawns, and how each lawn can represents a family.

The men of Reserve Police Battalion 101 were just ordinary men, from a variety of backgrounds, education, and age. It would appear that they were not selected by any force other than random chance.

One of the best feelings that a person can get while sitting in class is that feeling of “when the light bulb goes on.” That moment happened last Tuesday in class, when Dr. Liu was giving us his overview of Turfgrass. When he explained about how the patterns in the turf are because of the direction that the grass is cut. All those years of playing baseball in middle school and high school came together and the light bulb went off. Learning that special patterns could be done with the help of a roller on the turf was very cool. It would have really awesome to have done a few unique patterns in the outfield in high school. My mind automatly went to the amazing baseball fields that are seen on TV or the Rose Bowl on New Year’s Day every year.

In “The Mower Against Gardens,” Andrew Marvell uses a conceit to liken the plants in an English garden to the women of a brothel, exemplifying the theme of man’s perversion of nature.

At the forefront, the poem “An Ordinary Boy” (pg. 15)” is about the same boy who is the protagonist of the collection, who has wings. He looks in the mirror and wishes he could get rid of them, “Take this from me and I will be forever grateful,” says the boy.
