Burdekin and Farrokh K. Langdana there a table that outlines the receipts and expenditures of the confederacy from February seventeenth, 1861 to October first, 1864. From studying this table it is easy to see how much money was raised from bond purchases during small periods of time. Interestingly enough, the table is able to reflect the Currency Reform Act of 1864 because the value of bonds sold from October 1 1863 to April 1 1864 jumps dramatically from approximately one hundred fifty-five million dollars in bonds sold to two hundred seventy-three million dollars in bonds sold. This jump was caused by many people going to trade in their large denomination bills for Confederate bonds that payed four percent interest. Over the nearly four years covered by this table the cumulative sum of all of the bonds sold totaled approximately five hundred thirty-one million dollars.
The Civil War was caused by the north imposing unfair tariffs on the south, the constant argument over slavery and the slave trade, and states’ rights. “The South felt overcharged and cheated” (Document, essay). The south received mostly all manufactured goods straight from the north and Europe and since the south produces mostly cotton, they must acquire all manufactured goods from out of state. Congress passed the Tariff of 1828 and 1832 which made South Carolina and the south very mad. South Carolina and the south believed they were getting cheated, so South Carolina threatened to secede unless the tariff was lowered.
The first main cause of the Civil War was economic differences between the Northern and Southern states. During the first few decades of the 19th century, the North had an industrial revolution that brought an economy that relied on laborers. While at the same time, the South continued to rely on slaves for their farming and the production of cotton. The Northerners did not need slaves for their economy, but the Southerners could not make any profit without cotton or slaves. In the 1860’s, the North had twice as many railroads as the South, and the South had a bigger cotton production because of their slave population (Document A).
Speaker The speaker is Annie Dillard, who is also the author of the book. In Holy the Firm, the author expresses her thoughts in regard to questions such as the reason that humans are created by God; the meaning and essence of God’s work; and the relationship between the believers and God. Dillard encounters great conflicts in her belief in God when she saw that a girl in her neighbour’s farm was burned by a plane crash. She starts to question whether every act of God has any real meaning in it and if it does, why would God let a innocent girl be burned by excruciating fire at such a young age when she has done nothing wrong. She even wonders if God is just a powerless creator who has no power to save those who suffer from atrocities.
After the Civil War, the United States had two distinct economies, which is quite significant. The Southern economy was completely damaged by the results of the Civil War. Southerners were forced to readjust their entire economy, because slaves needed to be liberated, leaving slave-owners with no workforce. Meanwhile, in the North, the need to supply Union armies with particularly daily supplies marked the start of an era of industrial development. Which giant corporations essentially emerged known as Big Business.
Soldier payments were delayed, were inconsistently delivered, and the value of Confederate dollars crashed. The Civil War favored Northern industry and capitalism
Debatably one of the most entertaining and memorable commercials during last year’s Super Bowl was the 30 second Mr. Clean ad: Cleaner of Your Dreams, which aired during the third quarter of the game. The ad features a wife tired of cleaning who gets increasingly more turned on as her fantasy husband, “Mr. Clean”, uses Mr. Clean products to finish the household chores and concludes with a surprise ending of Mr. Clean transforming into her real husband, an average looking man. This ad destroys gender roles, showing that it is good for everyone when men help clean the house. Through the use of visual communication, verbal communication, and the timing of the Cleaner of Your Dreams ad, Mr. Clean effectively asserts that men need to help women clean while representing its intended audience, men watching the Super Bowl, and entertaining its target audience, people who buy cleaning supplies.
After the Civil War many problems arose. For farmers- shipping rates, freight rates, silo prices, and interest rates all skyrocketed. Many businessmen, such as middlemen, would try to take advantage of the farmers needs to mooch more money off of them. All of these issues caused the Farmer’s Alliance to form. The farmers that were participating in the alliance were being directly affected by the rise in rates and prices.

“Being Green at Ben and Jerry’s” Will’s use of analogy makes the essay interesting; it shows the reader how little the influence drilling would have on the ANWR. Will also makes excellent use of facts and statistics to persuade the reader that drilling in the ANWR would not be a bad thing. He also makes comments about environmentalists and their opinions, which makes the reader interested in his acknowledgment of his opposition, also making him a more credible source. In order to be more persuasive, Will needs to clearly state his position regarding the argument, as well as using more emotional appeal. Dear Representative, farming is by far the greatest industry in New Zealand.
a. Since entering college, interviews have become a much more relevant topic. I have always been a strong interview candidate naturally. I am articulate, while remaining casual, which typically breeds positive results. Coming into school, I struggled with the STAR format. The entire format seemed somewhat forced and was not natural for me.
