    Contrary to students within other provinces, those in Ontario should study only Canadian literature in grade twelve English courses. Although there are many existing writers in different cultures, it is important for Ontario students to first become familiar with Canadian literature before moving on. It is believed that students should focus on their Canadian culture - despite being surrounded by other cultures- promote and establish their own writers, and encourage younger Canadian authors.…

    The story opens in the month of January with the oft-quoted line: “None of them knew the color of the sky” (Crane 57). “Them” means four individuals who are aboard a dinghy, having been shipwrecked: the captain with an injured arm, the correspondent, the cook, and Billie, the oiler. Except for Billie, the rest of the characters remain unnamed. The oiler and the correspondent row the dinghy, while the captain provides directions and the cook bails water out of the boat.…

    What would be more important, the safety of an animal, or our own safety? Each day many animals cross our roads but sometimes the unfortunate happens when an animal accidently crossed the road when we are passing by. What do you do? In “Thoughts on Capital Punishment” by Rod Mckuen and “Traveling Through the Dark” by William Stafford, there are some similarities that help the reader compare the two poems, but there are also a number of differences that set them apart for example Stafford’s poem is much more serious than Mckuen’s poem. Although in both poems, the poets show sentimentality for the animals being killed by drivers, they differ in imagery, persona, and tone.…

    “Yet I seek not a fellow feeling in my misery. No sympathy may I ever find. When I first sought it, it was the love of virtue, the feelings of happiness and affection with which my whole being overflowed, that I wished to be participated. But now that virtue has become to me a shadow, and that happiness and affection are turned into bitter and loathing despair, in what should I seek for sympathy? I am content to suffer alone while my sufferings shall endure; when I die, I am well satisfied that abhorrence and opprobrium should load my memory. Once my fancy was soothed with dreams of virtue, of fame, and of enjoyment. Once I falsely hoped to meet with beings who, pardoning my outward form, would love me for the excellent qualities which I was capable of unfolding. I was nourished with high thoughts of honour and devotion. But now crime has degraded me beneath the meanest animal. No guilt, no mischief, no malignity, no misery, can be found comparable to mine. When I run over the frightful catalogue of my sins, I cannot believe that I am the same creature whose thoughts were once filled with sublime and transcendent visions of the beauty and the majesty of goodness. But it is even so; the fallen angel becomes a malignant devil. Yet even that enemy of God and man had friends and associates in his desolation; I am alone.”…

    In1991-92, the cement industry went through a major transformation, heralding a new era of privatization and effective price decontrol inline with a range of other public industries.

Capacity utilization of FCCL in FY 2011-12 has been 62% (based on 11,445 TPD) whereas in FY 2010-11 it was 93%( based on 3,885 TPD).

    The cement industry in Pakistan has an oligopolistic market structure which means that these companies have great market power and have the opportunity to make massive profits. The industry is marked by a strong cartel that regulates the prices, market share and production of cement in the country. The cartel restricts the market share of each manufacturer based on its productive capacity, but no company is allowed more than 10% of the market share. However, some manufacturers enjoy brand equity and charge higher prices. All Pakistan Cement manufacturers Association (APCMA) represents the industry to the…
