The University of Guelph has been my dream school with my dream program for many years. I’ve done allot of research into other programs across Canada and nothing will give me anywhere near the same degree that The University of Guelph will. I've always been very passionate about equine activities and that is why i believe I'll achieve great success in the Bio-resource management equine program, as when you love what you do it's like you're not doing it at all. This passion for all equine related activities is the reason I chose this program I want to learn more about the systems and care that goes into running a equine related business and most importantly I want to further my knowledge in this field. My whole life has always revolved around horses and I know that's what I want to do for the rest of my life and this program gives me the best chance to be able to do that.

Equine conformation evaluates the degree of correctness of a horse's overall structural correctness. Undesirable conformation can limit and restraint the amount of work and force you can apply to your horses upon showing, competing or just leisure activities. When inspecting a horse's conformation it is crucial to fracture things down into five main groups. The five main criteria include:balance, structural correctness, way of going, muscling, and breed/sex character.

The novel clearly reiterates the notion that more people conform than rebel when confronted with authoritarian control. The animals in the novel are divided into two categories. Those who have knowledge and therefore power, and those who lack knowledge and therefore are submissive. The main difference is that the submissive animals such as the horses and sheep represent the people that chose to stay uneducated, as it is a much less difficult pathway. They chose this because knowing consequences creates threatening actions against the livelihood of the animals. Despite the animals suffering from violence, poor conditions, and being overworked, they continue to conform as it becomes an easier lifestyle for them. The repetition of the lines “Napoleon is always right” and “I will work harder” showcases how the farm animals follow the routine of others and resign to conformity as their means of life, for it is an easier, simpler outlook to life for them. The idea of being an outlier and having a voice is forsaken by the animals, as the narrative evolves they witness more and more unruly acts of behaviour from the pigs, who are controlling the farm. The emotive language used within the line “Silent and terrified, the animals crept back into the barn” effectively demonstrate how a wave of melancholic and frightened emotions flood through the farm animals, creating a sense of compliance within. The use of threatening tone within the lines “At this there was a terrible baying sound outside, and nine enormous dogs wearing

Throughout history, humans have depended on the horse. Horses have contributed to the growth of humankind as transportation, farm workers, and battle steeds. They have been trained to support humans in many ways. When did this relationship begin? At what point did the horse become a vital part of human society? Exploring the evolution of the horse can help to answer these questions.

In the novel Animal Farm, the writer satirizes certain characters, in an effort to depict society in a humorous way. This essay will focus on the characters of Boxer, Mollie and Napoleon.

Our propaganda poster displays laws or beliefs that occurred in the novel “Animal Farm” in our vision of how they would be portrayed. Both pathos and ethos rhetorical devices are used to inform, persuade, and convince the animals of the farm of what is considered right. The two types of propaganda used include name-calling and the application of fear. The poster includes three scenes or images depicted from the book; an animal hoof stepping on a human hand that held a whip, Napoleon, and one of the guard dogs killing a pig that is intended to be Snowball.

Therefore, they need to work harder to avoid being thrown away. Instead of questioning the unfair treatment, the animals rather think less and do more work. Common animals are naive working class, who are unable or unwilling to question authority, condemning themselves to suffer the full extent of the ruling class’s oppression.

This technique is applied with other animal characters, such as horses, which are known to be hardworking, are represented as the submissive, unquestioning labourers, and sheep, which are identified as being gullible, obedient followers, are represented as people who readily accept propaganda without questioning the truth.

An example of the irony in the story, is the government of San Lorenzo, a small island nation somewhere in the Caribbean. The people in San Lorenzo were utterly hopeless. They have always been this way. San Lorenzo has been throughout history, one of the most unsuccessful and useless place on earth. The people are dirt poor and do not have any motivation at all. The way that they are kept alive at all is by trickery by the government and the holy man Bokonon. The dictator of San Lorenzo and Bokonon were both friends who decided to govern San Lorenzo by themselves. Since the people were hopeless and without direction, Bokonon invented his religion and the the dictator outlawed it and made practicing any religion other than Christianity punishable by death. All the people on the island had become devout Bokononists, and the struggle between the government and the religion kept them entertained, and therefore alive. The hopeless,

Humor can be found in the most unexpected places throughout literature. Even in writing that is not intended to be comedic, humor can be used to strengthen its message. For example, in “A Good Man is Hard to Find,” Flannery O’Connor’s use of humor and irony helps the readers better understand the theme, why the character’s actions led to their deaths, by bringing attention to these consequences.

We looked at each other, stood up, and headed down the big hallway and around the corner to find my mom gasping at the fact that her water had broken. This was a surprise seeing as she was not due to give birth to my little sister for another two weeks. Once again, we were out the door and in the car. My grandmother did not put me in my car seat right and I remember struggling to free my arms the entire ride. My mom sat in the front seat yelling and muttering words under her breath. I was afraid because my mom was in such a strange state but I soon realized that she was yelling more at my grandmother than at her painful stomach. Every time we approached traffic, she gasped and turned behind her with her hand on my car seat, as to secure me from some ejecting force. It was not until years later that I was told all of the stories about what a terrible driver my grandmother was and how many cars she destroyed in various "incidents," as my grandfather calls them. We reached the hospital in plenty of time, but with one problem remaining, my grandfather and dad remained uninformed and unreachable as the resided among thousands of intoxicated football fans. They arrived in just enough time to see my mom before she had my sister, but not without strategic methods to get a hold of them. They first had to be paged over the intercom and when that seized to succeed, event staff members were sent to find them standing

Task 1 Part A: A satire to some, but a slanderous novella to us: George Orwell’s Animal Farm uses a plethora of satirical techniques to mock our glorious authoritarian regimes. Throughout the sequence of events, the animals live under ridiculous commandments, such as not wearing clothing or sleeping on beds. They are each rightfully voided until one modified version remains: “ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL / BUT SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS” (Orwell, Animal 133). The trimmings of freedom, although a stellar idea for any transitioning society, are mocked through the ambiguity of “equal.” Equality, in the tightest definition, places all members of society at the same socioeconomic levels. The “more equal than others” connotates that

Bang my eyes opened as I leaped out of bed. I ran at full speed to my brother's room and woke Miguel up and screamed Happy Birthday to him. We went and changed and went on our iPads before our parents woke up. It was all a hurry as we looked like buzzing bees zooming through the house, at around 10 past 9 we ran out of the house full of eager and excitement. Sitting in the car, we drove along streets, highways and whinny roads but when I though we would ever make it to the horse riding we reached. I hopped out of the car ready to get on the Horse but realised the first group wasn't back yet. The three of us played basketball, got a helmet and got ready.

Ever since I was a child I knew that I wanted to work with animals. Horses, in particular, have always fascinated me. After much begging, pleading, years of convincing, and always working hard to save up money, I convinced my parents to allow me to buy a horse. To me, Indie was the most beautiful quarter horse I could have ever dreamed of getting. Since our purchase of Indie, we have acquired another horse, Sherman, and a pony, Tucker. Although the horses have always been hard work, they were worth every sweaty hot summer evening of mucking out the stalls and frigid winter mornings of carrying water to the trough in order to avoid freezing our hoses. After all, I used to dream of being a veterinarian and helping all kinds of animals in some way.
