Part One Paragraph
From what I know about The Sound of Music and Surviving The Applewhites, I know a few similarities and differences. One of the shallower differences is that the Von Trapp family only sings, dances, and plays guitar, while the Applewhite family has a variety of skills. A similarity that they share is that they both work for what they commit to. These comparisons and contrast show one of the themes, which is determination. The other theme is change, which is shown through Austria in The Sound of Music and through Jake and E.D. in Surviving the Applewhites. There is one final difference. However,this does not tie into any of the themes. It is that the Applewhites most likely were not in as much danger as the Von Trapp family.
According to the article "This Apple Could Have Been Saved" by Kristin Lewis and the Informational text there are many ways to reduce food and explain how food is wasted. In the U.S so much unneeded food waste that can easily be avoided. One way food waste could be reduced is composting. One way to food gets wasted is by throwing away left overs. This is one of the most common ways that unneeded food waste is collected. Instead of people saving or even composting there left over food they often choose to be lazy and throw it away. People should instead save these left overs for later. According to the informational text leftovers like veggies can be made to make soup, casseroles and other tasty recipes. Also, in the article it says "Cow skins
The relationship between the United States of America and Latin America nations has been turbulent since the beginning of colonization. The United States had withheld a sense of superiority since its inception. Their view of Pan-Americanism is only shared by them; Canada and most Latin American nations do not share this view. They viewed Latin America’s struggle for independence as a necessity, but did not pledge their assistance until it coincided with American interests and objectives in the area. The author mentions Latin America’s one-crop economy, but they do not emphasize the role the US played in their economies or how much they were involved in their own politics. Recent events, in regards to Cuba, have made certain parts of the chapter
The Applewhite and Von Trapp families are very different in their lifestyles and interests yet have very similar families. For example, the families are similar because they are quite large and work together to solve their problems. At the beginning of both the book and the movie, the family members did not get along with each other and a member of each family, Liesel and E.D., wished to not be part of their family.
How many times have you thrown away a half eaten apple or a bag of chips that you just could not finish? Now multiply that by 318.9 million give or take a few million. In the story “This Apple Could Have Been Saved” Kristin Lewis states that many Americans waste much more food than we should. Two ideas for reducing food waste are one what to do before and in the process of eating, and two what to do after eating.Three ways to reduce food waste before and in the process of eating. One way is to use smaller plates. If you use a big plate then you will be misled into believing that you would be able to eat it all. So next meal you are going to eat just grab a smaller plate and eventually it will just become a reflex. So why is this important, it is important because it will have people pile less on their plates which means less food be wasted plus you can always just get seconds. The second way is to eat ugly produce. Grocery stores throw away one-third of all the food it produces 133 billion pounds of food each year. Most of that is produce that looks different or has one little bruise. So next time you go
In the early 1900s world war 1 started. WW1 was a chaotic time for the people living in these war ready locations. This battle of death occurred mostly in Europe, but there were other battles in many different locations. The main causes of this war were the alliances, imperialism, and militarism.

I am writing you in regards to This American Life’s retraction of its episode “Mr.Daisey and the Apple Factory”.Although the excerpt you gave was partially fabricated from what I understand from the retraction episode all the things you mentioned are actually happening in China. Just because you didn't see them yourself doesn't mean you shouldn't have mentioned them. To me it seems like you thought just that. You saw your visit as a piece of the pie and you wanted the whole pie but you didn't have it.

In this paper, I intend to describe the inner working of the household in Greek civilization on three levels: family, city, and cosmos of gods. To achieve this goal, we will look into Bacchae by Euripides, and Oresteia by Aeschylus. Bacchae shows the workings of the house of Cadmus, a royal family, whose actions directly affect their city. This family tree includes a god, and is strongly affected by the will of the cosmos, through Dionysus. Oresteia is a play of three parts. We see the families dysfunctional interactions, and how they impact the city over time. We also see how the gods have an influence on these characters lives throughout the events that happen. Overall these interactions lead to the undermining of Greek civilization through death and destruction.
There are various threats in the external environment that influences Apple. Rapid technological development and change is a problem, the company might be set aside by a competitor who invents a newer technology. Tax increases have also influenced Apple.
