Beginning in 1984, a nonprofit called TED was started with a mission to spread ideas. The most important way this nonprofit spreads ideas is through short and powerful talks conducted by speakers. Various topics are discussed in these talks such as science, technology, and entertainment. Each speaker when talking about their topic uses different elements to make their speech effective. Some speeches are more effective than others because of the elements they utilize. Lizzie Velasquez is a TED talk

In Sherwood Anderson’s “Hands,” and William Faulkner’s “A Rose for Emily,” both authors introduced main characters who are alienated in their respective societies. In Anderson’s work, Wing Biddlebaum is an outsider because he wants to escape from his society since he has been accused of being a child molester.

Similarly, in Anderson’s work, Wing Biddlebaum chooses to remove himself from society since he has been falsely accused of being a child molester. In this way, both characters are outsiders in their communities

Wednesday Morning It is a typical Wednesday morning, the middle of the week, and I’m running late to school. It’s 7:43 and most students are making a mad dash to beat the morning bell, others linger around the green courtyard, catching up with friends, dreading going to class. I make my way through the maze of students, and I catch my best friend, Lauren, in the stairwell at the top of A building, both on our way to the history class we have together. We do not say a word, just share a look that

Jake Barns, in Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises, and Darl Bundren in William Faulkner's As I Lay Dying both have a certain desire, throughout their respective novels, for the affection and attention of a particular woman in their lives. For Jake it is Brett, and for Darl it is his own mother, Addie Bundren. However due to unfortunate occurrences in their lives, they can no longer gain that love and affection. Daryl and Jake both seek for the attraction of a woman in their life but due to circumstances

And, basically it would be time to lock us up. Then, when we thought this was going to come to fruition, then it was like stuff that was maybe somewhere deep inside there. We kind of knew what had happened to these people. Also, with Ed Herman’s passing, that had to be a big thing. It has to be a recent thing, because Ed’s death was recent, so, that is a thing that covers over all four chapters of this. Interviewer: Did you always know the jeep would still be here?
