The company, Hampton Machine Too] Company, had requested renewal of an existing $1 million loan originally due to be repaid on September 30. In addition to the renewal of the existin- loan, Hampton was asking for an additional loan of $350,000 for planned equipment purchases in October. Under the terms of the company's request, both loans, totaling $1.35 million, would be repayable at the end of 1979.…
I walk into the dull atmosphere classroom, pictures of present and past high school baseball players stare back at me. The marker board covered in scribbles of math and assignments that will soon be issued to us by the teacher. One look at the teacher and you can tell he wasn’t in the best of health. Starting with his overweight physic to his white, pasty skin, almost a bit discolored in some areas. It was soon discovered early in the year that he suffered from a heart deficiency. Yet, having constant road blocks enter his path, he continues to teach and peruse his passion. I rather much enjoyed that class, and there was one month left till until school was out. Students start to file into class; among them is a familiar but unacquainted face, Dan. Dan and I knew each other but neither of us had taken the time to traditionally acquaint ourselves and really talk. Dan had short golden blonde hair, pale white skin, which was making his acne more visible. He was tall and lanky with a friendly smile and attitude. That day he finally introduces himself and we begin to talk. My first impressions were that he was sweet yet a bit odd, referring to many people and myself as ‘love’. As well came off as ambitious and carefree, after having snuck out of class multiple times and just leaving for the day. As summer dawned closer and sophomore year was coming to an end, me and Dans friendship grew and we exchanged numbers. Summer began, weeks pass and we talk from time to time. Till one day while texting I ask if he had any big plans for the rest of summer. The reply I got was not what I expected. He told me that he was due to have brain surgery in a month or so. And as well, that that wasn’t the worst part, not only is his condition fatal if he doesn’t receive proper treatment, but that if the operation is successful that a side effect is that he will lose all memory of the last 4years of his life. At this point in the conversation my mind was racing trying…
I was promising child when I was young. My parents were busy to show me off to others. I was so called talented child that never miss an A in a single class. My parents did not ever doubt about me becoming eminent man. I was always forced to study all day. I wanted to play soccer or basketball with my friends but I had to take some classes in educational institutes after the school. My life was totally micromanaged by my parents. When I was 14 years old, I went to middle school and started to consider about what is my life. At that moment, I met a friend, Xiao Xu, who sat next to me in the class. He was definitely not a model student but he was so called a delinquent in my class. We talked a lot in the class and I started to hang out with him. As a duck takes to water, I met his friends through him. I wanted to hang out with friends frequently because no one bothered me when I was…
She is amazing and probably the most important person I have she is my best friend. She has been my best friend for the last 4 years. I have known her since I entered high school and since that day we have become the most inseparable friends in the world. I have much affection toward her, we have lived many things together, through thick and thin, she always been there for me when I needed her. She is a little taller than me and always makes those few inches a big deal. In her eyes I’m supposed to be the tallest because I’m the oldest which is true sometimes but not this time. She is the type of girl that doesn’t wake up super early to fix her hair; she would rather have the extra sleep. She would rather eat a juicy Big Mac instead of a boring salad because she says “salads are for cows”. She would rather spend the day in her sweatpants and a pain white t-shirt because she find them more comfortable then a dress or skinny jeans. She has those hazy eyes that get you in a trance; her eyelashes are long and beautiful. Her personality is one of the things that. I love about her, she can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens and still have a smile on her face. When she smiles it’s because she feels like screaming. She is a strong girl even when other are not. Her hair has the sweet scent of strawberry and is always messy, even when we go out. She is a very attractive girl in my eye, she is tall but I think that's what makes her look cute. She is normally thick and her skin is caramel .Her touch makes people shudder like a cold breeze of winter, it’s smooth and hasty. Her smile is a bit crooked but it’s a genuine smile, not a lot people don’t see her smile because she hates her smile only the people she trusts see her genuine crooked smile. When she smiles her dimple appears which is the cutest thing because she hates it and tries to hide it but I always notice them. If I can describe her in a few words they would be friendly, respectful, hardworking, and an honest…

He mentions that culture and genre are an ongoing process and it depends on a daily professional life. Symbolism in Canadian culture is dependent upon people’s expectations. He exemplifies “The blue fleur de lis flag of Quebec was used to oppose the red and white maple leaf of Canadian national flag.” (238). Americans do not have that contradiction.…
The time has changed, when there was a girl, who has just moved back to school from boarding school seated infront of me. That girl was so pretty, skinny and gorgeous to me. I was wondering if she will be my friend one day. Suddenly, she asked me, “ can I borrow your correction tape?” and I said “sure”.

But she doesn’t care at all. Since then i know her name is Nur Daniella.…
It is great that you are so fascinated in the internet that we use, I am more than happy to answer your questions to help you understand better. The internet does make life so much better and much faster to obtain information these days other than waiting for information to come to the television or reading this information in the newspapers. This helps many business people and parents who are always on the go. The best way to know if the internet is reliable and credible is to always double check your question or answer if you feel that there may be a chance that you are obtaining the wrong information. Educate the users of the internet and teach each individual what not to go onto and what not to look up. There are many viruses that can affect our computers also when we mis-use the internet. Usually you try to stay away from sites that are well known to give out the wrong information such as Wikipedia or Ask. For me personally I have learned a lot about what sites to stay away from during my school classes and discussion questions, I always use to use Wikipedia and with attending school it has taught me to open my eyes and see what wrong information I was receiving. One of my favorite websites would be Web MD and my student online library, I have found nothing but the right information on there and I have also verified with teachers and doctors to be sure also. Always double check yourself there is no wrong in doing that. You also asked me about digital divide, this term is referred to people who do have access to the internet and then the other side is for people who do not have access to the internet. You can also compare this to people who do and do not have a smart phone or a home computer. I personally do feel that this divide can be put together and many Americans and families overseas can obtain a computer and have access to the internet. Many people raise money for a lot of beneficial things; why not add the fact of helping…
