Statement of Purpose Ever since my childhood, I used to fix things at home. Sometimes it would work and other times it would go down the drain. As a kid, I’ve experimented on simple toys to various machines used at home which was obsolete. I was intrigued as to how machines worked and wanted to explore more about them. I remember a day when I fixed something at my home and everyone praised me. It was then that I realized that I had a thing for machines and this paved for my interest in Mechanical

Monstrous desires are not as exclusive as one might think, and in Karen Russell’s short story “Vampires in the Lemon Grove,” we come to recognize that, despite the fact that the two main characters, Clyde and Magreb, are actual vampires, their “monstrous” urges are all too familiar- perhaps even quintessentially human. In fact, with careful analysis, specifically through psychological criticism, we, as readers of “Vampires in the Lemon Grove,” can see that by understanding psychological urges of

to justify that killing Simon was a tame act and that they didn’t demonstrate raw violence. They tore him apart like the pack of mutts they’d become. Its proven time and time again, what was the reason for them to want to kill Ralph other than to quench Jack's lust for blood, and his need for power. Jack again shows his quick temper when he has the “boys”, or better his pack of wolves, tie Wilson up and beat him. All these acts point to the God Ares, and his cruelty and his quick temperedness showed

Jennifer Turner History TR 12:30-1:45 October 16, 2014 Democracy viewed as a system strictly for the benefit of the rich and to control the poor. Democracy is the platform for a man to quench their insatiable want to attain more money. The rich were unaffected by this desire, for they continue to have monetary gain while the poor suffered. A position of authority is given out without any thought to whom has been chosen for the role. Once the poor becomes intolerant to the subjective behavior they

and loss of speech without a visible physical cause. Bertha Pappenhiem was diagnosed with hysteria by doctor, Josef Breuer. Breuer had given her a pseudonym, as “Anna O.” Her hysteria lasted for two years and for several weeks, and she was unable to quench her insatiable thirst. Anna’s ability of speech was reduced to the point where she was unable to understand or speak her native language. Breuer successfully treated Anna by helping her recollect forgotten memories from traumatic events. Dr. Breuer

In “Drinking”, Billie Jo tries to take care of her mother, who is hurt, while her father gets drunk in another town. This poem evokes sadness, because of the lack of hope for her mother. The word choice, or diction, in “ It wasn't very much. But it was enough for him to get good and drunk.”, conveys that she is upset about his betrayal to her dying mother, but also in disbelief. This is shown by the short sentences that she writes, and the lack of descriptive adjectives in the story. This may have

I cannot help but cheer for women who break societal standards and take control of their own lives. Anne Bradstreet did just so in the 17th century by having her poems published, in a time where her authorship was questioned solely because of her sex (Lauter 395). Her voice roars throughout her poetry as the penned words evoke her godly conviction and love for her family. Primarily, her religious faith is strongly present in her pieces. I appreciate Bradstreet’s reliance on God in her poem, “Upon

There are a few times in the Frankenstein play where we got to see some of Dr. Frankenstein’s characteristics. One of the characteristics is how desolate he is. The tone of the narration is implying that he is accepting defeat and giving up. This is especially noticeable at the end when Dr. Frankenstein is telling Captain Walton to kill the creature for him, knowing that he will not survive to kill himself. He is also regretful. I say this because on page 284 on the first paragraph he says, “Take

Aluminum metal reacts with oxygen in the air to produce a thin hard film of aluminum oxide on the surface. Thus, as the aluminum oxide film becomes thicker, it will absorb moisture from the air. In fact, moisture is the source of hydrogen, which could affect the quality of the weld (e.g. porosity). Another reasons aluminum is different from steels when welding is that, aluminum also does not change its color as temperature approaches the melting point. The oxide that forms so rapidly on its surface
