Okay I apologize to the those who bid on my last order as I am brand new I needed to change this assignment and wasn’t sure how to do so, so I had to cancel it. For Assignment 5, you will prepare a powerpoint presentation of 20-25 slides. Each slide should contain the answers to the questions below as well as applicable graphics. Your powerpoint will also be plagiarism checked so make sure you compose short, effective and descriptive paragraphs in your own words. Citations for quotes, references and graphics should be listed on your last slide. 1) Read the different components and definitions for plot 2) Read the short story ‘The Fall of the House of Usher’ by Edgar Allan Poe 3) Respond to the short answer questions below 4) Explore the irony and symbolism in the short story 5) Write and explain the plot Line of the short story Plot: A plot line contains the following components: Introduction: Is when the characters, setting and beginning of the story occurs. This part of a short story needs to grab the readers attention. Rising Action: When a turn of events occurs in the short story which leads up to the climax. Climax: Is the pivotal turn of events in a short story when a dramatic situation occurs. This usually involves the protagonist and antagonist. There could be a conflict, dilemma or loss. Falling Action: Occurs after the climax when a resolution to the conflict or drama is starting to emerge. Denouement: Is the conclusion of the story where a resolution is made. At times a surprise ending can occur here where the reader is not expecting the conclusion to be what it is. There can also be an indeterminate ending where the problem is not resolved by the end of the story which leaves you the reader ‘hanging’. For example, in Bourne Ultimatum, Matt Damon is seen being shot at from a roof top before diving into the water below to escape his followers. This leaves the viewer questioning the conclusion and the meaning behind what occured. A) Short Answers: Please respond to the following questions in short answer responses of at least 4-5 sentences each with the use of a direct quote from the short story to support your answers 1) Analyze the description of the setting provided by the narrator, what kind of atmosphere is created? What are the images the narrator instills in your mind to solidify the atmosphere? 2) What is the name of the proprietor of the House of Usher? How do he and the narrator know each other? 3) What kind of illness does the proprietor of the mansion suffer from and why did the narrator go to visit him? 4) How is the proprietor’s bedroom a metaphor of himself? Describe the room and explain. 5) How are Lady Madeline and the proprietor related? Does the proprietor and Lady Madeline have a close relationship? Support your response with direct evidence from the short story. 6) Read the ballad. Does it relate somewhat to the proprietor of the Manson and his life? How? 7) What does the proprietor ask the narrator to help him with when it comes to Lady Madeline? Where do they take Lady Madeline’s body? Describe the proprietor’s reaction to the scenario. 8) Provide three titles of the books that the narrator read to the proprietor. What were some of the themes that were explored in the novels that the narrator chose to read? How does this relate to the proprietor’s recent mental state and health? 9) What is the final story that Edgar reads to the proprietor? What does he hear as he is reading the story and who appears at the door upon him reading? 10) Who appeared at the door and what happened to the proprietor once he saw the figure? What was the reaction by the narrator and what happened to the mansion at the end of the short story? 11) Were you surprised by the plot and the conclusion? Why or why not? You should also include in your powerpoint the information requested below. How you integrate it into your presentation is up to you. B) What is the Plot Line? For this portion of the assignment you must outline the plot line of this short story. C) Irony and Symbolism: Take your time and read the definitions for irony and symbolism below. Then, based on the short story, write a 150-200 word paragraph about how both irony and symbolism helped in supporting the theme of the short story. Be sure to identify what the exact theme of this short story is. Irony- Is when an outcome of events is the opposite of what is to be expected. Symbolism: Is the use of objects which provide a hidden meaning. For example, dove= peace, lily=death. I would like this written in Times New Roman at a font size of 10. Also this needs to be done in Canadian English with grammar and such, and also I need to be able to attain at least a B for grade 12 English. Thank you. This is the beginning of assignments I will be posting here if this goes well. Also please keep in mind that I need to pay in USD but the currency exchange is a killer right now

A corporation in the United States is about to expand its business’s globally, as part of this expansion, it will begin to sell its products in Europe and Asia. In addition, it plans to open a manufacturing plant in Asia. The president and chief executive officer (CEO) is concerned; he has heard many stories of companies that have tried to expand globally, but operations either failed miserably or did not live up to expectations because of the cultural differences.

The CEO has asked you to research problems that other corporations have had with the process of expanding globally and develop a plan to avoid these types of intercultural errors and missteps.

you will select a multinational corporation or international nonprofit agency that has encountered these problems (this can be a previous or current employer of yours). You will research the corporation or organization to discover any cultural barriers that the corporation or organization encountered as it

4-6 paragraphs

Although the original goal of the juvenile court was to care for the wayward child through therapeutic interventions, there are many individuals calling for juveniles to be treated as adult offenders. The current debate between those pushing for harsher juvenile punishment and those asking for treatment may lead to a shift in the way juveniles are processed in juvenile courts and the type of disposition or sentences they will receive.

Using the course materials, textbook, library, and Web resources, research juvenile justice, and comment on the following statement:
•Juvenile delinquents should be treated and sentenced like adult offenders.

Identify and discuss 4 different reasons that support your argument.
•Research the different perspectives on juvenile justice and sentencing.
•In 4–6 paragraphs, address the following:
◦Identify and discuss 4 different reasons that support your argument of whether or not juveniles should be treated and sentenced like adults.
◾Use research to support your argument.

Be sure to reference all sources using APA style.
I will need 4 references for this assignment.

Examine the development of the notion of government by social contract in the writings of Hobbes, Locke and Rousseau. What did Locke find wrong in Hobbes’ account, Rousseau find objectionable in Locke’s theory, and what problems remain in Rousseau’s social contract? Does the notion of government by social contract even make sense, and if so, what is the best social contract that can be achieved?The paper should include both a discussion of the thought of at least two of the philosophers covered in the course as well as your own thoughtful reflection. Students are require to have a minimum of 8 sources for the assignment. Second, the paper should contain a brief description (briefly mention the authors and the selected works) of the selected philosophers. Third, the paper should contain a detailed description of at least three components of the works of the two selected philosophers.

Microeconomics Project 1 Your Investment Company receives $20,000 from a group of investors (your classmates). Your firm specializes in building mutual funds only with the best and biggest American companies, so you are going to build a fund only with ordinary stocks from the companies included in the S&P 500. With that money, you bought stocks en 2 companies ($10,000 in each company) on 09-04-15 and you’ll sell it on 11-06-15 just before the investors’ big meeting (P1 due date). You are on charge of analyzing and tracking the movements and key facts of the stock price of both companies. So for each company, each Friday register the stock’s close price during the period (10 Fridays). After the stocks have been sold, you should calculate the profit (or loss) made for each company. Also, you should calculate the profit (or loss) made as mutual fund (including both companies). You will inform the investors of the mutual fund performance. They will be happy or angry depending on the quality, clarity and knowledge showed by you in the report (your paper). The investors know they can earn or lose money, so the important key in your paper is how you explain to them what happened with the market and the companies selected during the period of investment. The Investors’ report will include at least the following: 1. The reason (just economic arguments) why you chose each company (1 paragraph per company) 2. Mutual fund’s composition which means how many stocks, for each company, there are in the fund (1 pie chart or table) 3. 2 graphs showing the weekly stock price for each company (1 graph per company) 4. 1 graph showing the weekly value of the fund (the value of the mutual fund is the amount of stocks multiply by the stock price) 5. A comparison between the initial fund value and the final fund value, and how much money you earned (or lost) in dollars and in percent. (1 table with those figures) 6. An analysis of your outcome. In your opinion, why did you earn (or lose) that money? What happened with the market or with the industries involved that affected this? (2 paragraphs) 7. Given the results, analyze if it would have been better to leave the money in a CD (certificate of deposit) which paid an annual interest of 3%? The investors are very busy guys so they don’t need too many words. They need smart and clear explanations. Other Instructions: • I’ve posted the link to yahoo-finance.com but you can use any other reliable source. • The paper will be made using Microsoft Word (.doc or .docx) which may include at least the 3 graphs required. Of course additional relevant information that supports your arguments, such as pictures, graphs, data and other
