While the boy is outside working his sister calls him for “supper”. “At the word, the saw, as if to prove saws knew what supper meant, leaped out at the boys hand, or seemed to leap” again the writer is personifying the saw so that it seems almost like an animal at the zoo waiting for feeding time, or so that it doesn’t murder anymore trees. Caesura is also used, “neither refused the meeting, but the hand!” this gives a feeling of abruptness and sudden realisation to what has just happened to the boy. It makes the reader feel as if they can see it in their minds eye. It is if a death is waiting to happen. “The boys first outcry was a rueful laugh” this shows how shocked he and everyone else were. “As he swung toward them holding up the hand, half in appeal, but half as if to keep the life from spilling” this indicates that losing his arm would be like losing everything because it such a needed thing in this time, to be able to half both hands to work. Also “life” is a metaphor for the blood that would be pouring out of him, this reinforces the fact his life is slipping away and his time is near. “a big boy doing a mans work, though a child at heart” this gives the effect that his whole life has flashed before him and his life may be over, reality has hit home.

When the sister came out and told the brother that supper was ready and the saw looked as if it “leaped” out of the boys hand, it seemed as if the saw was a friend of the boy that did not want to be abandoned, so it pulled away from the boy in anger, causing injury to the boy. The saw and the boy were in essence “friends” because of the time they spent together sawing firewood, and when faced with the boy leaving was upset. 2. What do you make of the people who surround the boy—the “they” of the poem. Who might they be? Do they seem to you concerned and compassionate, cruel, indifferent, or what? a. The “they” of the poem appear to be his family, possibly his uncles, aunts, or cousins. They could be neighborhood friends of the boys. b. Whoever they were, they did not seem to be very concerned that the boy was injured, let alone dead. They seemed uncompassionate and unconcerned about what they had witnessed. 3. What does Frost’s reverence to Macbeth contribute to your understanding of “ ‘Out, Out—’ ”? How would you state the theme of Frost’s poem? a. It seems to me that Macbeth’s verse is about how short life is, that life is just a shadow, a player, in the game of life, that walks around on a stage, then one day is over. Frost uses part of the first line of Macbeth’s verse “Out,...

    ...writing her thesis on “Understanding and assessing pathological communication patterns in the workplace culture preceding burnout.” She frequently lectures on the subject of burnouts. Burnout is loss of engagement, i.e, reduced energy, involvement, self-efficacy and motivation. The foundation of burnouts begins with out relationship at work. There are three different dimensions; energy, involvement, and effectiveness. These three elements are in a continuum between engagement and burnout. If these three deminsions lean towards the burnout side, one will start to feel exhaustion (both mentally and/or physically), cynicism (to protect yourself from exhaustion and disappointment, you become cold, with a distant attitude), and ineffectiveness (you become so exhausted and drained that the quality of work decreases as you lose confidence and self-esteem in yourself, and then others begin to also lose confidence in you). WORKLOAD IS THE LEADING FACTOR FOR BURNOUT. The biggest paradox being “do more with less”. This leads to burnout because we can’t deliver the same quality. Solveig explained to us that here are six factors that attribute to having a burn out. * Workload (leading factor) too much to do- or too little (being overqualified) * Control – how much control do you have over your work – are you being micromanaged – this can be degrading * Reward – psychological contract with yourself “if I di this on...

    ...subprime crisis and the credit crunch. The main focus of this paper is an analysis of the effect of leverage and liquidity factors on the balance sheet during the crisis, using data from Goldman Sachs and, more importantly, Lehman Brothers from 1999 to the second quarter of 2008. The two investment banks are compared and analyzed to assess whether the balance sheet argument is holding as the crisis deepens. 1 INTRODUCTION The 2007–8 predicament is the product of two crises: the subprime crisis and the credit crunch, which combine to create the perfect storm. Individually, neither crisis would have created a big problem but combined they have had a lasting effect on the banks, albeit in different ways. However, as Adrian and Shin (2008b) point out, the subprime securities market is relatively small compared with the overall financial market, and the total loss in overall write-downs from the entire investment banking sector, which stands at US$81.5 billion (Onaran and Pierson (2008)), is less than or equivalent to an average daily gain or loss on the stock market under normal conditions. In order to fully understand the problems affecting the investment banking sector, there is a need to define the term “investment bank”. Hughes and MacDonald (2002, p. 459) define an investment bank as “a bank whose function is the provision of longterm equity and loan finance for industrial and other companies, particularly new securities”. However, after the...

    ...support technical, methodological and managerial aspects of environmental and social product development (e.g. Baumann et al., 2002). Several firms have successfully integrated this new knowledge and have moved towards a high level of integration of sustainable design in their business. However, this number of firms is small compared to the total amount of businesses that still struggle to successfully integrate sustainability issues in their product development: the BSR/GlobeScan State of Sustainable Business Survey 2013 shows that only one in five companies successfully integrated sustainability across their business and operations (BSR, 2013). The translation from theory on sustainable design into practical applications in business turns out to be difficult, whereby a gap between the theoretical foundations and the practical application thereof occurs (Baumann et al., 2002; Tukker et al., 2001). Research on the integration of (environmental) sustainable design in practice has created insight in many success factors and obstacles towards achieving this (e.g. Handfield et al., 2002; Boks, 2006, Satterfield et al., 2009). These and other studies identified a multitude of cross-disciplinary factors, whereby a distinction can be made between two main groups of success factors and obstacles: those related to organisational structures, processes and practical issues, and those that are linked to the internal value chain of a firm. The latter group includes...

  • Out, Out—” by Robert Frost Essay

    ...Frost’s poem Out, Out, it appears as though a small boy is out doing some work that normally older men would do. Including this is cutting firewood with a chainsaw. As he is doing his work, his sister comes over to announce that dinner is ready. Then, in his own excitement, he loses control of the chainsaw and it cuts his hand. He pleads with his sister to not let the doctor cut of his hand. But the boy eventually loses too much blood and dies, and then everyone just moves on and goes back to their daily routines. The first thing that came to mind from reading this poem is why no adults ever interfered at any point throughout the poem. Not once does an adult come to the boy and take over the work for him. Never does an adult tell the boy that he can take a break. Then at the end, not a single person (adult or child) seems to mourn for the boy after he dies from his accident. Everyone just moves on without a second thought. It makes it seem as though this was just something that the people were accustomed to at the time. Maybe this was a period where people were dying almost on a daily basis and everyone just realized that there was no time to stop and mourn for others so often. At point in the poem, it seems as though the chainsaw is blamed for this tragedy that befalls. While the saw is what caused the boy to lose his hand and bring about his death, the author seems to personify it. For example, when the boy’s sister came to...
