In this report, I will be discussing the formations of tuff rings, tuff cones, and a variety of spectacular geologic features that can be seen in the Southern Oregon area (near Silver Lake); including Hole in the ground, Fort-Rock, and Table-Rock complexes. To begin, we will start with the background of how tuff rings and tuff cones are formed. Hydrovolcanic eruptions are some of the most violent spectacles, each generating hundreds, or even thousands, of explosions throughout the course of its eruption
Rogue waves are very large, like mountains of water. They are often 100 feet tall. Rogue waves do not follow regular wave patterns and are unpredictable. Scientists believe that there is a pattern, but have not found it. This means that there is only one wave at a time, and do not come in a series

What is amazing about Leeson’s activities is the fact that he was able to accumulate such staggering losses without the management of Baring’s noticing. Leeson had various roles to play within BSS; he was the general manager, the head trader and the head of the back office. Usually different people perform these tasks, but Baring’s management failed to see the conflict of interests befalling one undertaking multiple roles . Leeson had control over both the trading desk and the clearing and settlement
The expanding global market has created both staggering wealth for some and the promise of it for others. Business is more competitive than ever before, and every business, financial or product-based, regardless of size or international presence is obligated to operate as efficiently as possible.

Many multinational organizations have used derivatives for years in financial risk management activities
The study of popular culture is incomprehensible without the examination of the representations in the mass media, such as television shows, music videos, advertisements, films and so forth. The Bechdel Test is a tool that allows for such an examination be conducted. Anita Sarkessian in her infamous blog Feminist Frequency suggests that The Bechdel Test can be used to gauge not only female presence in films, but also the representation of minority individuals. Both versions of the test consist of

madness can lead to sadness, while in others madness can lead to anger. In act II of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet, through the words of Hamlet’s long Rogue soliloquy, Shakespeare uses a series of poetic devices such as: mood, understatement, rhythm, simile, and symbol to identify that Hamlet is indeed going mad, specifically mad at himself. Primarily, mood can be identified in the following passages: ‘“O, what a rogue and peasant slave am I!”’(II, II, 577) and ‘“For Hecuba!”’(II, II, 585). From Hamlet’s

From the late 1800s, as the US began to collect power through Cuba, Hawaii, and the Philippines, debate arose among historians about American imperialism and its behavior. Historians such as William A. Williams, Arthur Schlesinger, and Stephen Kinzer provides their own vision and how America ought to be through ideas centered around economics, power, and racial superiority.

The Doctor Stories use interior monologue in a stream-of-consciousness as a tool to reflect each narrator’s experience and gives insight into the character and his appraisal of each of the situations encountered. It is through this stream-of-consciousness that we come to realize the observational nature of this doctor’s actions and thoughts. In the story A Night in

This poem looks like a note left on the refrigerator for a roommate, a family member or a lover to see. This particular style of the poem is what mostly grabbed my attention. This poem is clear and direct. The simple ness if this poem left me confused at first. In the entire poem only the words “I” and “Forgive” are capitalized.
