Paying for a foundation inspection can be worth every penny if you uncover extensive and expensive foundation damage that will cost you thousands of dollars to repair. By comparison, you are paying peanuts to find out if the home you will be buying will be a great long-term investment. You might be thinking, “I have a home inspector, why would I want to pay for a foundation repair inspector?” Home Inspector: Great for an Overview The ultimate reason boils down to specialty. A home inspector will
The word home has many definitions but one definition that I feel fits it best is “a familiar or usual setting”. The definition itself is vague and I think that's why it fits perfectly. The word home has very different meanings and different reasons for its meaning to different people. Along with definitions there are also quotes that, in a way, provide a definition. For example, “home is where the heart is,” explains that home is a person or place that you love most. My favorite is one that isn't

The place was quiet...as quiet as it was cold. There were no fancy lights adorning the shabby little cabin, but newspapers and used cardboards sealed the cracks and holes that plagued its wooden walls. There was no laughter of merry family members sitting around a sumptuous meal celebrating the season. But in the dark and tiny kitchen stood an empty, scratch infested table that hadn't had the company of its masters since the summer that had just passed. Just beside the kitchen, in a room barely
Ursula K. Le Guin's short story The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas is set in a blissful utopian city, the denizens of which live in an environment of peace and plenty. The parable highlights the sacrifices humans make in order to maintain civilization, the role of scapegoats in society, and the bargains people are willing (or unwilling) to make to maintain peace and happiness, or at least the image thereof. Le Guin's tale raises questions about the nature of a truly moral society, the contrast between
Importance of Community in El Tonto Del Barrio The title of Jose Armas’ story, "El Tonto Del Barrio" (or "The Barrio Dummy"), may be interpreted two different ways. The first interpretation is literal and applies to the simple-minded Romero, who with the help of his community is able to function in the real world. The second interpretation is ironic; it applies to the Harvard-bound Seferino, who though he means well is so lacking in experience that he turns Romero’s world upside down and nearly
The famous novel “Emma” written by Jane Austen, published in 1815, deals with wealthy bourgeoisies who mostly occupy their time with wealth, status and romance. The novel takes place in Hartsfield, in the English countryside near Highbury. Throughout the novel the narrator leaves the reader in much suspense. The narrator does so using a specific tone which does not allow the reader to outright understand what is to come, or in many cases what is meant at the scene. Evidently, though under the surface
The Haunted House - Original Writing It was the Christmas holidays and beady eyes phased with curiosity were glazing over us. I felt as though everyone was staring at us, and we were now the central attention of our new, humble town, Gravesend. As our entire luggage was being unloaded, I noticed that everyone was glaring at us as if we did not belong here. I felt uncomfortable and insecure. The neighbourhood itself appeared rather pleasant and, on the road, children were playing with each
The Significance of Act 1 Scene 1 in A Taste of Honey in Establishing the Relationship Between the Main Characters and the Social Context of the Play In my opinion Act 1 Scene 1 is the most important scene of the play because straight away we find out that Helen is a "semi-whore". We also see the beginning of a strange mother-daughter relationship. As soon as we read the first page we find out the setting and the time of the play. The time of the play is very important because of the social
The piece of work I have choosing to reflective upon is an Initial Assessment of a family of asylum seekers from Pakistan. The family consisted of a father, mother and their five children ageing from 12 years old to 2 years old. “An Initial assessment serves as a blueprint it will be mortified as ideas are tested out and new data and information is gathered. The social workers will continually reassess the nature of the problem, and the need for support when doing an initial assessment” (Pincus
The stone angel is a symbolism for Hagar Shipley in the form of her character, and the way she displays no emotions, similar to a stone angel. Also, the position of the angel in the cemetery reveals Hagar’s high self-esteem and pride by the towering position of the angel overlooking the town. Moreover, the stone angel’s features represent Hagar in other ways; they include the missing eyes, the hardness of her personality, and Hagar’s lack of motherly affection for her first born child. The symbolism
The smell of human waste intoxicated our noses. All my senses became weary as I endeavoured to stay awake. I had to keep strong. Dayo rested besides me, helpless, on the floor barely covered. Her eyes withering as the light dawdled through the splinter in the walls. Lips arid from the lack of food they had not been feeding us. She had been drained of all the energy she used to have. There were 60 other women like me and my sister, all different ages. We were captive in steel cages like animals with
“Don’t judge a book by it’s cover” is what been told around and what most people still don’t do. How we decide how something is worth by just looking at it without getting to know someone or something even closer. John Steinbeck wrote a book in 1937 about two farm workers moving place to place trying to find their happiness. By going through things together and keeping each other’s hope by reminding one another about their motivation on even trying and ways how the farm workers, Lenny and George
