Write a 2 pages paper on independent study for november 7. Poems Relating to Veterans and/or Veteran’s Day Brian Turner’s poem, “Here, Bullet” is a poem that describes the bullet and the human reactions to the bullet. He depicts the bullet as an evil thing. The poem is packed with figurative language and mostly personification which is the major style in this poem. By personifying the bullet, Turner speaks to the bullet as a villain and even challenges it. He says, “And I dare you to finish / what you’ve started”. He described the pain caused by the bullet to the body as an explosion which causes pain and eventually kills as shown by the phrase, “Bullet, here is where the world ends, every time”. The significance of this poem is that Turner has removed the blame to the terrorists who fire the gun but instead, he blames the gun by making it responsible through personification. Yusef Komunyakaa’s poem “Facing It” is another military poem about a painful experience suffered by a Vietnam War veteran when he visited a Vietnam veteran Memorial. Komunyakaa uses the first person to create a symbolic setting of the memorial sculptures by drawing its physical properties. His descriptions create a ghostly reflection of the settings which has been clogged by his military experiences. The poem shows that the many survivors of the war come to a dead end upon visiting a memorial site. The military people are also taken to be unable to experience the present or the future without interference from the memories of the war. As such, they keep on grieving even when safe from the war. “The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner” by Randall Jarrell is a short poem which is filled with condensed brevity and shocking violence. This gives the poem a rather immediate and durable impact to the readers. This is partly due to the tittle of the poem depicting that it is written from the poem of view of the dead gunner. Jarrell paints an uncomfortable picture about his sympathetic situation by precise choice of diction. The gunner seems like a small child who has lost the comfort of his biological mother to land into the hand of the state. By alluring to paradox of ‘birth” and “death”, he is able to present the trauma undergone by gunners. “Dulce et Decorum Est” by Wilfred Owen is a poem which describes the general conditions of the military in war especially when attacked and presents the effects of such an experience through the eyes of a person who has lived through the experience. The poem depicts the soldier’s situation as utterly frightening and life-threatening when they are gas attacked and have to retreat. The soldiers live though had moments as they are fatigued and are unable to walk as some are even limping. Even at death, the soldiers are happy to patriotic to their country. “11/11/11” poem by Christina Lovin is a description of the pain which the society and families of fallen soldiers go through when they remember their departure. The pain of losing people in war distracts normal occurrences every time bereaved people hear the funeral drum in commemoration of the dead soldiers. We can feel the Lovin’s pain as she remember the death of her here brothers who died in war. This poem is a reflection of pain from the view point of the society as opposed to the soldiers themselves. Works CitedBrian Turner, Here, Bullet. Alice James Books. 1 edition, November 1, 2005.

Create a 10 pages page paper that discusses faith and work integration. Indeed, there exist personal, ethical, and corporate dilemmas that ran at parallelsTo start with, faith and work are two opposites in many aspects. Theology has separated itself from the everyday of people’s lives. R. Paul Stevenson defines my spiritual dilemma based on the central question in the epilogue of his book “The Other Sox Days”. My view on work is that it is an activity undertaken to put bread on the table. People are always willing to work seven days a week without going to church. The church is not interested in the other six days that people spend in the workplace. This has led to an increased polarity between faith and the workplace. Faith and religion appear to be in conflict when my work demands that I work on Sunday, which is against church principles. This has resulted in me stop working for employers who require employees to work on Sunday.It is often hard to determine what guides our actions in the workplace. Faith and work share a lot of virtues we practice. Honesty is the virtue required in the workplace and it instilled in us from our religious backgrounds. In the workplace, company policies stress the need for honesty in procedures and ethical conduct. This virtue in the workplace integrates well with faith. We need to be vigilant when working under pressure to meet deadlines.Deuteronomy 16:19, tells us that bribe blinds the eye of the wise and twists the word of the righteous. Nevertheless, how far do businesses go marketing? There is no problem with giving free samples of your product to the customer because it is providing an opportunity for the customer to assess the product or service. However, where do you draw the line? When do the provision of free samples and gifts bear with the implied understanding that product or service will be brought in return. because, at this point, my faith makes it become a bribe? From a Christian perspective, marketing must be done in an honest way.&nbsp.

Corporations and Stockholders’ EquityCase Studies Case 1Ted was a wealthy, 20% stockholder of TDS Corporation. He was looking over the financial statements of the corporation and saw that TDS was in need of a large loan. Further, he knew that December sales were weaker than expected and that the yearly financial statements would show a lower net income than anticipated. He then decided to loan the company $3 million at 5% interest and also become a customer and purchase $250,000 of merchandise. Ted’s becoming a customer would increase the business’s December sales and net income, and give the company sufficient cash to meet expenses. When approached with the ideas, the CEO objected, stating that the “loan” would have to be recorded as additional capital because a stockholder could not loan money to a company. Ted stated that as long as the money was treated as a loan with interest and the expectation of repayment, it should be allowed. The CEO then stated that it would be unethical for the company to “borrow” money from a stockholder. Also, it would be unethical for the company to “sell” merchandise to a stockholder, because it would merely be done to improve the December sales. Ted stated that the loan agreement of 5% interest would make the arrangement reasonable. He stated that if the interest rate was 25%, then the CEO might have a valid ethical concern. Ted also argued that the sale of merchandise to him was completely ethical, because he was not going to return the merchandise. He further contended that it should not matter whether he was a stockholder because in these transactions he would be a lender and a customer, which would not involve any ethical issues.Please review the case and answering the following questions:•

Create a 2 page essay paper that discusses Why plagiarism increases in schools and universities around the UK.Some of the reasons why plagiarism is rising in that manner are explained in this essay. One of the reasons for the increase of plagiarism in universities and schools around UK is the easy access of the internet (Watkins, 2008). There are various tools such as Google that students use to conduct their research and get access to information and ideas that can be used to complete assignments and research projects.However, such research tools have contributed to plagiarism increase across the UK because it enables learners to copy information from the internet. It is difficult to spot this form of plagiarism and cannot be identified manually. Indeed, there is a “significant, negative influence on the rate of plagiarism due to the internet” (Ison, 2014). The internet is therefore a significant cause of increasing plagiarism in most universities and schools around UK. Online education is also a significant contributor of plagiarism on the internet platform. Ison (2014) argues that online coursework or online education which is common in various institutions in UK causes a great temptation for students to plagiarize than the brick-and-mortar form of education. Online education allows students to stay on the internet for a long time, tempting them to search through various websites for information that can enable them to complete their online assignments easily. Furthermore, there is limited supervision in online studies because the student and the lecturer operate from different places and the lecturer cannot supervise the student directly.
