Outlining.pptxNioAbaoCasyao

This document discusses outlines and their importance. It defines an outline as a written plan that serves as a skeleton for paragraphs or a summary of essential information. Outlines give an overview of topics and show how subtopics relate. They are useful for organizing ideas before writing and analyzing papers. There are two main types of outlines - writing outlines made before writing and reading outlines made when studying papers. Outlines also have different notation systems like decimal or alphanumeric and use indentation. Formal outlines for submission use topic or sentence outlines. The document provides an example of a sentence outline for an essay about moving on from a past relationship.

BP Statistical Review of World Energy 2012: Summary of 2011 databp

This document summarizes key events in the global energy system in 2011 based on BP's annual Statistical Review of World Energy. It notes that while political unrest disrupted oil and gas production in parts of the Middle East and natural disasters impacted nuclear power in Japan, overall global energy consumption and GDP growth were close to long-term trends. However, prices of oil, coal and natural gas increased substantially. The energy system adjusted to disruptions through increased oil supply from Saudi Arabia and other OPEC producers, diversion of natural gas from Europe to Asia, and increased coal exports from the Americas to Europe to replace natural gas. Fuel substitution and supply/demand responses helped maintain energy flows despite significant political and natural disasters.

This document is a compare and contrast essay analyzing the animated films Finding Nemo and Tangled. It summarizes that the two films have different personalities for the main characters, with Marlin from Finding Nemo being neurotic and worried while Rapunzel from Tangled is spirited and adventurous. It also notes that the backgrounds of the films are different, with Finding Nemo taking place primarily in the ocean and Tangled featuring Rapunzel's adventure through hills and towns. Finally, it states that while both films have happy endings, Finding Nemo ends with the reunion of Marlin and Nemo while Tangled ends with Rapunzel losing her healing powers after cutting her hair to save Flynn Rider.

My ancestors on both sides came from India and China in the 17th/20th centuries as indentured laborers or in search of jobs. They had little education but worked hard as planters, plowmen, bread sellers to provide for their large families of 7-13 children. The grandparents on both sides prioritized education, working to send all their children to primary school and some to secondary/university. This enabled my parents' generation to pursue further education and careers. My father worked from a young age in farms and fishing before starting his own successful business with my mother's support. They had 4 children and emphasized education to enable future opportunities.
