Comparison Poetry Essay - 2397 Words

Poetry Essay Each one of the poems offers a unique view upon love. The first poem by Robert Herrick, To the Virgins to make much of Time, focuses upon the idea of carpe diem. The poem stresses the idea of marriage while love and flesh are still young and believes this gift of virginity to be a great waste if not given while it is still desirable. Marvell also uses the carpe diem theme to his poem ‘To His Coy Mistress,’ however with three certain sections within the poem. The first part elaborates on the idea of unlimited time; this then evolves a ‘but’ into the poem that everything must come to end and death catches up upon us. Then in the last third of the poem the word ‘therefore’ comes into play as the poet says that we should enjoy†¦show more content†¦Herrick tries to scare the reader into marriage, he does not with for them to be without protection but the carpe diem theme also suggests that they must go and seize the day, while they are still in prime and youth, so they are not wasted. This is summed up in the fourth and last stanza of the poem ‘for having lost but once your prime, / you may for ever tarry’. Marvell also uses the carpe diem theme to his poem ‘To His Coy Mistress,’ however with three certain sections within the poem. The first part elaborates on the idea of unlimited time; this then evolves a ‘but’ into the poem that everything must come to end and death catches up upon us. Then in the last third of the poem the word ‘therefore’ comes into play as the poet says that we should enjoy the time we now have with one another. The main point of the poem is for Marvell to persuade his coy mistress ‘to sport’ (now let us sport us why we may) and at first glance appears to use conventional methods to get his time of pleasure. The ‘Coy Mistress’ within the title may imply a complicated relationship with coy meaning a shy, quiet reserved person, not the sort of person that one would imagine ‘to sport’. Also the word mistress derives from the word ‘master’ and gives a sense of authority. During the first stanza of Marvell’s poem he tries to persuade his mistress, praising her using conventional ways ‘to walk and pass our love’s long day’. Marvell explains that they will live and love one anotherShow MoreRelatedA Comparison of Poetry Essay967 Words   |  4 PagesA Comparison of Poetry In this essay two poems will be juxtaposed.

Cuánto demoran los papeles para esposos de residentes

La peticià ³n de papeles para su cà ³nyuge realizada por un residente permanente se demora, en el momento de escribir este artà ­culo, entre aproximadamente 21 meses de mà ­nimo y 30 de mà ¡ximo. En este artà ­culo se explican las causas de la demora, cà ³mo es posible hacer un cà ¡lculo mà ¡s detallado, segà ºn el caso de cada solicitante, cosas que deben saberse mientras se està ¡n en el medio del proceso de la tramitacià ³n y, por à ºltimo, quà © causas pueden dar lugar a la negacià ³n de peticià ³n de la tarjeta de residencia, tambià ©n conocida como green card. 4 factores que determinan la  demora la green card para cà ³nyuges de residentes La demora de la peticià ³n, la cual se puede presentar para un cà ³nyuge del mismo sexo o del sexo opuesto,  depende, bà ¡sicamente, de cuatro: En primer lugar, de quà © oficina del Servicio de Inmigracià ³n y Ciudadanà ­a (USCIS) debe aprobar la peticià ³n En segundo lugar, de la oficina consular en la que se realiza la entrevista para los casos de cà ³nyuge fuera de Estados Unidos o de la oficina del USCIS que debe aprobar el ajuste de estatus, para el caso de cà ³nyuges en situacià ³n migratoria legal en los Estados Unidos En tercer lugar, del nà ºmero total de peticiones de esta categorà ­a, ya que existe un nà ºmero mà ¡ximo que se puede aprobar por aà ±o fiscal y asà ­, cuando se alcanza dicho nà ºmero las oficinas del gobierno paralizar el nà ºmero de peticiones aprobadas hasta que el inicio del siguiente aà ±o fiscal. Y en cuarto lugar, del paà ­s de nacimiento de la persona pedida ya que para Mà ©xico aplican unas fechas y para el resto de Latinoamà ©rica y Espaà ±a, otras.   Pero es posible calcular las demoras y tambià ©n verificar cada poco si hay cambios en los tiempos de tramitacià ³n. Ademà ¡s, si todavà ­a no se ha iniciado el trà ¡mite, esto es lo que se debe  hacer para que un residente solicite la green card para su cà ³nyuge. Paso 1: demora el USCIS en aprobar la peticià ³n El primer paso en la obtencià ³n de la green card para el cà ³nyuge es que el USCIS apruebe la solicitud. El paquete con ella se envà ­a a una oficina (depende del lugar en el que se reside) y, una vez, allà ­, se distribuye entre los llamados Centros de Servicio. A las pocas semanas de haber enviado el paquete con la solicitud se recibe una carta que tambià ©n se conoce con el nombre de NOA1. Contiene informacià ³n importante, como el nà ºmero de caso y tambià ©n el lugar en el que va a tramitar la solicitud.   Una vez que se sabe cuà ¡l ha tocado, ir a esta pà ¡gina oficial, bajar el cursor, elegir el Centro de Servicio adecuado y presionar en centro de servicio fechas de trà ¡mite.   A partir de ahà ­ se abre una pà ¡gina y hacia la mitad de la misma buscar formulario I-130 peticià ³n para pariente extranjero y verificar la opcià ³n de peticià ³n de un residente permanente para un cà ³nyuge o un nià ±o menor de 21 aà ±os.   Y el tiempo de procesamiento son los meses en los que el USCIS se demora para contestar si aprueba la peticià ³n o la deniega. Lo notifica con una carta conocida como NOA2 que es muy importante porque ahà ­ aparece la fecha de prioridad. Paso 2. La gran espera por los papeles Una vez que el USCIS aprueba la solicitud hay que esperar por una visa disponible. Esto quiere decir que por ley hay un nà ºmero limitado de peticiones de tarjetas de residencia que se pueden hacer en esta categorà ­a de solicitudes de residente para esposo, lo que se conoce como F2A.   Y como el nà ºmero de solicitudes es mà ¡s grande que el nà ºmero de visas disponibles entonces se producen unos retrasos.   Cada mes el Departamento de estado publica el boletà ­n de visas. Ahà ­ es el lugar donde informarse  si ya hay visa disponible y se acabà ³ la espera. La manera de mirarlo es teniendo la fecha de prioridad en la mano. Si la fecha es anterior al dà ­a que el boletà ­n de visas seà ±ala para la categorà ­a F2A, eso quiere decir que comienza de nuevo la tramitacià ³n que falta.Si es mà ¡s reciente, hay que seguir esperando. En la actualidad, el boletà ­n de visas està ¡ dividido en dos grandes categorà ­as.   En el caso en que se puede ajustar el estatus, verificar la fecha en dates for filing. Por el contrario, los casos con procedimiento consular deben consular el final action. Paso 3. Ajuste de estatus o procedimiento consular Entonces pueden pasar dos cosas segà ºn dà ³nde se encuentra el cà ³nyuge pedido: Si està ¡ en Estados Unidos legalmente se puede proceder a su ajuste de estatus. Y aquà ­ se explica cà ³mo verificar los tiempos de demora para eso. Recordar que los esposos de residentes en situacià ³n migratoria de ilegalidad no pueden ajustar su estatus y, por lo tanto, antes de iniciar cualquier trà ¡mite migratorio deberà ­an consultar y asesorarse con un abogado. Si la persona pedida està ¡ fuera de Estados Unidos habrà ¡ unas gestiones (como envà ­o del affidavit of support) con el Centro Nacional de Visas y los pasos finales se harà ¡n en el paà ­s de cada uno, incluyendo una entrevista en el consulado o Embajada. Aunque las demoras varà ­an por paà ­s en là ­neas generales puede decirse que desde que hay visa disponible a la finalizacià ³n del proceso no pasan mà ¡s de seis meses.   Problemas en la peticià ³n de la green card para esposos Estas son 42 causas por las que se deniega la green card. No todos los problemas son iguales, ya que en algunos casos es posible pedir un perdà ³n, tambià ©n conocido como waiver. En otros casos, el castigo es solamente temporal. Finalmente, en algunas circunstancias no serà ¡ posible encontrar arreglo y no se obtendrà ¡ la green card. Ademà ¡s, tratà ¡ndose de un matrimonio, el USCIS y, en su caso, el consulado va a poner atencià ³n para averiguar si el matrimonio es real o es sà ³lo de conveniencia.   Recordar que los  esposos de residentes que està ¡n en Estados Unidos como indocumentados  no pueden ajustar su estatus por matrimonio. Con lo que si los piden en esa situacià ³n tendrà ¡n que salir de Estados Unidos y allà ­ puede saltar el problema del  castigo de los 3 y de los 10 aà ±os. Por todas estas razones dichas, es recomendable antes de iniciar trà ¡mite asesorarse con un buen abogado de inmigracià ³n cuando alguno de esos problemas puedan aparecer. Mientras se està ¡ esperando por los papeles Mientras se espera por la green card, puede suceder que el solicitante cambie de estatus legal al naturalizarse y convertirse en ciudadano estadounidense. Esto es lo que debe  hacer si el residente se convierte en ciudadano.   Por otra parte, tambià ©n mientras se espera por la green card si el cà ³nyuge està ¡ fuera de Estados Unidos puede que desee viajar para reunirse con su esposa o marido. Pero esto no siempre es posible y conviene enterarse de las posibilidades de ser exitoso al  pedir una visa de turista mientras se espera por green card. Asimismo, como las cosas de amor pueden ser cambiantes, es importante conocer cà ³mo  afecta el divorcio a la green card. Consejos para que todo el trà ¡mite resulte bien Estados Unidos es un paà ­s diferente en muchos aspectos como por ejemplo, el migratorio, el legal, o en materia de impuestos, etc. Para evitar problemas y conocer los derechos todas las personas que desean emigrar deberà ­an familiarizarse cuanto antes con los aspectos bà ¡sicos del paà ­s y asà ­ evitar mà ¡s tarde problemas indeseados.   Ademà ¡s, este es un listado de telà ©fonos y pà ¡ginas webs en los que se puede verificar informacià ³n sobre el caso y obtener buenos recursos migratorios.   Finalmente, se aconseja tomar este quiz - trivial o test- para verificar que tienes los conocimientos bà ¡sicos para obtener y conservar la tarjeta de residencia. Es difà ­cil conseguirla. No corras el riesgo de que te la cancelen por ignorancia. Este artà ­culo es sà ³lo informativo, no es consejo legal.

Psychology A Human s Mind - 1399 Words

The foundation to a human s mind is based on the principals both taught into and gathered from experiences as a child. As children grow older, they soon start deciphering this information to decide for themselves which of their actions are right and wrong. What draws me to study psychology is this mental processing, and how it affects a person s current and future character; particularly children. Childhood is a stage when a person s individual identity begins to form; Children, more so than any other age group, are easily influenced by their surrounding environment; What they learn from these experiences, whether good or bad, they carry for the rest of their lives. Just likes ripples, each experience can be solitary or continue to amplify through social-emotional interactions, unless somebody or something is able to calm the disturbance. Having received my masters in applied psychology, my desire to obtain a Ph.D. in counseling psychology is motivated by a desire to build on my exi sting academic framework of psychological concepts to explore the link between behavior and trauma in order to better serve the communities that I work with: Adolescents. The understanding of the internal and external factors that determine coping mechanisms and responses to life stressors have been an integral and valuable aspect of my success as a counselor to date, as well as have provided a steep learning curve for me to master.

Where (was his starting point): In 1466, at the age of fourteen, Leonardo was apprenticed to one of the most successful artists of his day, Andrea di Cione, known as Verrocchio. Verrocchio’s workshop was at the centre of the intellectual currents of Florence, assuring the young Leonardo of an education in the humanities.

Between 1480 and 1493 Leonardo Dad Vinci designed what is known today as the â€Å"Aerial Screw’ or also known as the â€Å"Helical Air Screw’. Leonardo Helical Air Screw measure approximately fifteen feet across and the material used to build it were reed, linen, and wire. The main power proportion came from four men that were standing in the middle of the craft rotating different pedals in order to rotate the screw like shaft (See figure L-1). Leonardo was a very methodical reader and writer. He often read books that interest him with pen on hand. He was so critical of himself that he used to describe his though in writing, and draw them most of the time in order to retrace his thinking. In the old time it was common for inventors to read others innovators ideas in order to create new ones or reproduce the same invention with improvements. One of those creations was the Leonardo â€Å"Assault Vehicle†. After researching Roberto Evaluator’s â€Å"De re military’, Leonardo Dad Vinci went ahead and created the Assault Vehicle with a technology that was unheard of at the time. Due to the lack of funds and the war at the Apennines Peninsula Leonardo had o restrain his master creation to Just a blueprint. The Assault Vehicle had an upside- down cone shape with four wheels at the bottom, and a crankshaft for propulsion. Been that Leonardo was so critical of his own invention, he decided to make improvement to his own invention at a later time. One of those improvements was the vehicle self-propulsion. Leonardo achieved this improvement by creating a spring-power system (As the Motor), and an innovated differential transmission system. (L-2 Picture of Assault Vehicle) Another area in which Leonardo Dad Vinci broke new ground was painting.

As a scientist, he greatly advanced the state of knowledge in the fields of anatomy, civil engineering, optics, and hydrodynamics. His journals include a vast number of inventions, both practical and impractical. They include musical instruments, hydraulic pumps, reversible crank mechanisms, finned mortar shells, and a steam cannon. When (his professional life begin ): 1476 Why (did Leonardo start doing all this things): Helen Gardner says â€Å"The scope and depth of his interests were without precedent†¦ His mind and personality seem to us superhuman, the man himself mysterious and remote†. Leonardo was the archetype of the renaissance man, a man whose unquenchable curiosity was equaled only by his powers of invention. Basically, he just did all this because of his curiousity. Where (was his starting point): In 1466, at the age of fourteen, Leonardo was apprenticed to one of the most successful artists of his day, Andrea di Cione, known as Verrocchio. Verrocchio’s workshop was at the centre of the intellectual currents of Florence, assuring the young Leonardo of an education in the humanities. Consequences (of his existence): Liana Bortolon, writing in 1967, said: â€Å"Because of the multiplicity of interests that spurred him to pursue every field of knowledge  Ã¢â‚¬ ¦ Leonardo can be considered, quite rightly, to have been the universal genius par excellence, and with all the disquieting overtones inherent in that term.

Cystic Fibrosis Research Paper free essay sample

Without the cystic fibrosis variation of the CFTR gene, the CFTR proteins created by the gene act as a channel protein which can be found in the membranes of cells which line the passageways of organs such as the pancreas, lungs, and intestines. The CFTR protein can be modified in numerous ways to give the host cystic fibrosis; in fact, over 1000 transformations of the CFTR gene have been recognized. One of the most common of these mutations is a deletion of a single amino acid from the long chain of 1480 in the CFTR protein. This causes a breakdown of the channel made with the missing amino acid, which means that it never transports chloride ions, like it was made to do, because it never reaches the cell membrane. This mutation is delta F508, because the deletion occurs at position 508 on the CFTR protein. These sorts of mutations work to deteriorate and destroy the efficiency of the CFTR protein by changing or replacing parts of the protein’s amino acid order. This order chooses the way that the protein is folded, and if this order is changed or altered, the way that the protein will also be modified, causing the protein to not be able to work. In this case, the protein is a protein channel inside a membrane, and if folded improperly, the molecules that would normally pass through it are not able to, which means that the structure has failed to do its task, which is the transport of chloride and sodium across epithelium (tissues). This failure is caused by the altered fold of the protein, because proteins function only when the proteins are folded perfectly. When folded improperly, the substances for which the protein was made cannot fit through the protein channel, and so cannot pass through it. The phenotype or physical appearance of anyone with the autoimmune disease cystic fibrosis varies, as there are multiple possibilities and combinations, but have many recurring traits. Some of these visible traits include Delayed growth, failure during childhood to gain weight in a â€Å"normal† manner, bursts of weight loss, copious and unnatural production of phlegm, and scarring. Most of the phenotypes of cystic fibrosis do not show is a visible manner in the very early stages of human life. However, about 20% of babies with CF will be born with meconium ileus, which is a severe intestinal obstruction. The lack of certain transport molecules also prevents nutrient absorption, which causes a huge appetite. Cystic fibrosis was discovered in the 1930s by the Bohemian pathologist Carl von Rokitansky, who made the first description of the disease as part of a report about a death of a fetus. In 1938, Dorothy Andersen M. D. wrote the first comprehensive report on cystic fibrosis and also named it, referring to the cysts in the pancreas of children and an elevated amount of fibrous tissue. In 1955 a group of parents founded the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, which later became the National CF research Foundation in 1955 as well. In 1980,b The foundation created the Research Development Program, which is a network of research centers at top universities. In 1989, the single most important discovery in cystic fibrosis research was made; the discovery of the CFTR gene in the human body, which led to scientists understanding cystic fibrosis at its most basic level. With the knowledge of this gene, scientists could also, for the first time, synthesize a healthy version of the gene for research. The first gene therapy for patients with cystic fibrosis occurred in 1993, which truly started further studies in CF gene therapy. Cystic fibrosis comes with many odd symptoms which are caused by the defects in the CFTR gene’s amino acid sequence. Because cystic fibrosis helps to prevent the movement of salt and water in and out of cells, the lungs and pancreas begin to secrete thick mucus, which will eventually block passages within the body, eventually rendering the passageway useless from clogging. As an example, mucus lines the membranes of many internal organs in order to protect the organ. The protein channels placed inside the membranes allow chloride ions to pass through, and because of H20’s (water’s) polarity, the water molecules are dragged along with the ions, which also thins the mucus inside the cells. Without the movement of the chloride ions, the mater and mucus cannot move out, causing a buildup of mucus. In the pancreas, these unusable passages prevent the secretion of the necessary digestive enzymes from the pancreas to the intestine, meaning that an inability to digest any kind of food, especially fats and proteins. Another major symptom is being extremely underweight and malnourished. This is caused by the other symptom of not being able to digest foods and retain nutrients. In fact, this symptom of not being able to absorb nutrients or digest foods causes many other symptoms. Diabetes is one of them. As damage to the pancreas from unusable protein channels increases, more and more insulin-producing pancreatic cells are destroyed, causing type-1-diabetes from lack of insulin. In the lungs, the production of the thick mucus also increases the likelihood of infection, so people with cystic fibrosis are known to have lungs with copious amounts of bacteria in them. Other common symptoms include salty-tasting skin, loss of appetite, weight loss, fatigue, coughing, increased mucus in the lungs and sinuses, recurring episodes of pneumonia, inflammation of the pancreas, and infertility for men. Because cystic fibrosis is a hereditary disease, different populations are more or less likely to have this mutation in the CFTR gene. About one in every twenty-five Americans of European descent is a carrier of the gene, though possibly not infected fully with cystic fibrosis. Remember, you need to have the mutation in BOTH of your CFTR genes to have cystic fibrosis. ) One in every seventeen-thousand African Americans is a carrier of the mutated gene, and one in thirty-thousand Asian-Americans is a carrier. Overall, the Caucasian race is most susceptible to having cystic fibrosis. The various treatments for cystic fibrosis have improved astronomically since the disease was first discovered. In the year 1962, patients with cystic fibrosis had a median or ave rage life span of about ten years. Treatment has developed to the point that the average age to which cystic fibrosis patients survive has been raised to forty-one years of age. When cystic fibrosis was first discovered, there were no treatments available. In 1989, when the CFTR gene was discovered, scientists were intrigued, and in 1993, gene therapy for cystic fibrosis patients began. Since then, scientists have learned much more about how cystic fibrosis affects humans, and many different treatments have been developed to counter some of these symptoms. Simple exercise is always good for patients with cystic fibrosis, because it will help to sweat out the excess salt that cannot get out of the body because of unusable protein channels. There are antibiotics to help prevent bacterial build-up in the lungs and sinuses. Pills have also been developed to thin mucus in order to prevent the extraneous buildup of mucus in the body. To solve problems of lack of nutrition or vitamins, injections can be arranged, of the nutrients themselves, or of enzymes that the pancreas naturally makes. Currently, even through years of research and progress, there is no true cure for cystic fibrosis. However, many different medications and activities help to lower chances of harmful symptoms of cystic fibrosis and help to prevent certain fatal events from occurring. Current research is mostly held at places such as the Cystic Fibrosis Research Development Program Center, where there is research funding. Most of the hope in curing or treating cystic fibrosis has been placed on drugs and gene therapy. These drugs that are being synthesized have characteristics meant to counter the symptoms of cystic fibrosis, such as the overproduction of mucus, bacteria buildup in the lungs, and infection.
