quotNightquot essay Hi, I'm doing a essay based on "Night" by Elie Wiesel as the topic, I'm also provided with some other story I have to write about. It would be great if I could get a bit of help on it. Maybe just write down a few ideas that I can elaborate upon, thanks! Here is the source/ question given: [b]"... dangers we face lie beyond our imagination"[/b] I have to write a intro, a paragraph on the story which I can do myself and maybe just add on with the ideas you guys give me, and then a response on the book Night, a personal response paragraph, and a conclusion. (Once again, just a few ideas would help, I honestly don't have much to say about this topic, but I want to be able to do good/ write more about it,

English Poem help Hi, so I'm still pretty new to the English language/ history and I'm having trouble explaining the message of a poem. I know the basics of it, like the horrors of the holocaust described in the poem, but I need help getting in depth of it. So here's the question I'm stuck on: In a proper paragraph, explain the message of the poem, using the figurative language of the poem as support (thus showing how the use of poetic devices gets the message across). Here's the poem that I found: Well.. I'll just copy paste it here lol I. I would like to be an artist So I could make a painting of you Little Polish Boy Standing with your little hat on your head The Star of David on your coat Standing in the ghetto with your arms up As many

LoL placement games Hi, My bro is playing his placements right now and so far he has won 7/9 games (so 7:2). Even if he loses the last one, I'm pretty sure he will be placed into silver? But does his kill/ death ratio count into this? Because he's usually forced into playing support (people don't want to be support.. and he's being nice.. lol) so he doesn't get many kills, and in about 3 out of the 7 games he won was negative (he was sona and the lowest one in ratio terms was 3:6 with 27 assist- also does assist count into what rank he will be placed into?). The 2 games he loss was (1:7 and 3 assist, the other was 2:4 and 4 assist)

Endothermic/Exothermic Reactions help Hi I'm having troubles differentiating the difference between the two (this is for chemistry). In my notes an negative enthalpy is exothermic, and positive is endothermic? For this question (If no enthalpy is given- and you have to solve it using Q=mc(delta)t how do you know if it's exothermic or endo, also I'm not sure if it's negative or positive for the final answer, I believe it's something to do with the temperature?)- 5.50kg of water ar 12.5 degrees celcius is heated to 96.0 degrees celcius on a camping stove that burns propane. Calculate the heat supplied by the propane to the water. So here's what I did: Q=mc(delta)t : (5500g)(4.19J/g degrees celcius)(83.5 degrees celcius)- I think the temperatu

Chemistry molar enthalphy help So.. my teacher is confusing and barely explains stuff :(... Anyways, I need help understanding when to use what formulas. (below are 4 formulas) "Q=mc(delta)t" - This is used to find Joules (heat?)- units are J or KJ.. etc (I feel like this formula is kindof useless though, because I've never been asked to just find the "KJ".. Rather it's usually the molar enthalpy... so I would just use the formula below.. But if I do get a question that only asks for the heat? I use it?.. actually I'm not too sure when to use this, because most of the time I use the one below or the formula after that. ) "n(delta)cHm=mc(delta)t - (This is used to find Molar enthalpy?)- units are KJ/mol (delta)rH- n(

Windows 7/ 8 Hi my cousin is getting a new desktop and he was wondering which one to get (personally I recommend windows 7.. because I heard windows 8 is hard to use.. etc). He wants to know the [b]speed, cost, size, capabilities, warranties, and restrictions[/b] on these systems, cause he's a geek lol. Ex. Windows 8 is more expensive because it's new.. supply and demand.. etc. I'm not a major computer expert so.. .yeah :p... (or.. windows xp.. which i doubt anyone really wants over windows 7 lol..)

Chemistry manipulating formulas Hi, I've always had troubles manipulating formula's, because I've never really been truly taught (stupid teachers focus on material but not the basic stuff like this.. which I have troubles with), I kind of just have to learn it myself. But lately I've been getting a bunch of formulas that I have to manipulate in Chemistry. For example Pv= nRt How do you manipulate it? o_o. I believe uhh for example I'll try to find n (mol) I divide RT on both sides and the formula will be Pv/Rt = n. Here's where i get confused, why can't I multiply n (formula so far pv x n = Rt) over to the other side and then divide pv (because they are being multiplied by each other?- this where I'm wrong, it's also an extra step for me do

Kinder Egg ban So.. I've always wondered why Kinder eggs are banned in the USA. So the reasoning is kids swallow the toys or some shyz... I don't even think it's a reason; If the kids swallow them they are probably pretty dumb, does the plastic cover taste good? why the hell would they swallow it... remember the saying: chew your food? If you can't chew it don't swallow it. And if that's still a problem, it should be the parents fault for not supervising and teaching their children to only eat the 'tasty' chocolate part. And also why just the USA?...

Poetry help please Hi, I need to write a poem.. and well, I hate and dislike writing poetry, and suck at it. Really need help please! Example: (about mushrooms) Edit : it can be about anything, and so the style can be free verse Overnight, very Whitely, discreetly, Very quietly Our toes, our noses Take hold on the loam, Acquire the air. Nobody sees us, Stops us, betrays us; The small grains make room. Soft fists insist on Heaving the needles, The leafy bedding, Even the paving. Our hammers, our rams, Earless and eyeless, Perfectly voiceless, Widen the crannies, Shoulder through holes. We Diet on water, On crumbs of shadow, Bland-mannered, asking It keeps going on for like 4 stanzas... Anyways it doesn't have to be this long. I think around
