![]() Furthermore, she discovers dining out is a way for the couple to connect and they look forward to it every week. She finds out that the clients’ entertainment bucket is almost zero, their clothing expense is minimal, and their grocery category is practically nothing. However, in further discussion the advisor begins to uncover more details. From a comparison stand point, the advisor should recommend client A reduce the frequency of going out for a bite to eat. After examining the data it’s found that on average only 15% of the collective group’s discretionary budget goes towards this category. For example, client A goes through an expense analysis and finds out they are spending 35% of their discretionary budget on dining out and would like to know how this compares to other clients. When clients are looking to compare themselves to others they want to compare the hard data. Our propensity for comparison leads us straight into the “Iceberg Effect” and even more so when it comes to our personal finances. The reason: his physical ability was subpar in comparison to his peers. For example, Tom Brady, arguably one of the best NFL quarterbacks of all time, was drafted in the 6th round of the 2000 NFL Draft. However, there are flaws to comparisons as it cannot always be quantifiably measured. Comparisons are efficient it allows for a baseline to be created that streamlines the evaluation of others. We are constantly comparing ourselves to everyone around us. At work, you are compared to others in your industry with similar job functions in order to set your wage. In sports, athletes go through tryouts where they are rated against one another to earn a spot on the team. Our school system inherently compares students, leading to special classes or enrollment in certain schools. Wanting to compare ourselves to others is drilled into our heads from a young age. ![]() How else are they supposed to know if they are doing well? Our clients recognize the number of people we partner with and often ask “How do I compare to the rest of your client base?” The answer we provide is typically not what someone would want to hear as we constantly state “I can’t compare you to our other clients, as your situation is truly unique resulting in an apple to orange comparison.” After we respond, the clients continue to probe “Well, what about people close to my age with similar assets and debt?” And again, we answer the same way: “Comparing other clients around your age with a similar situation in regard to assets and liabilities is once again an apple to orange comparison.” The rationale behind these questions makes sense as our clients are seeking a benchmark to compare themselves to. ![]() One of the many benefits of our job is having the privilege to work with many wonderful families and individuals. ![]()

![]() One of Peppermint Patty's most troublesome traits, however, is her tendency to only hear what she wants to hear from others. In another strip she let Charlie Brown pitch the last throw of the game (Peppermint Patty pitched a no-hit, no-run game and were leading 50–0 on the 9th inning, 2nd out, 2nd strike), only to see Charlie Brown (obviously Lucy's fault), lose the game. However, she quits in disgust after only one game despite tossing a no-hitter and slamming five home runs, her new team loses, 37-5, because of their somewhat porous defense. In the first series of strips in which Patty appeared from 1966, she actually joins his team as its new pitcher, relegating Charlie Brown to the outfield. Peppermint Patty is a star athlete, especially in baseball, where her team regularly trounces Charlie Brown's squad. Finally, Peppermint Patty exacerbates her stupidity from these mortifications by then stubbornly blaming everyone who tried to warn her and she blindly ignored to her sorrow. Furthermore, when Patty went after Snoopy for this fiasco, she was convinced that the ferocious cat next door, World War II, was Snoopy in disguise for absolutely no rational reason and attacked him, forcing Snoopy to come to Patty's rescue. She later graduated and found out to her total humiliation later when the principal of her regular school explained what she had done. Furthermore, Peppermint Patty enrolled into the Ace Obedience School at Snoopy's recommendation, took the curriculum with the other dogs and never seriously questioned why she was the only human participating in that manner. Peppermint Patty's obtuseness got even more pronounced such as when she applied to a school for Gifted Children with a big sack expecting to receive things until the school representative explained to her embarrassment the complete misunderstanding she had about the institution. During a scuffle with Marcie, Snoopy's doghouse (which she thinks is a “guest cottage”) is destroyed, and Marcie finally convinces her friend that Snoopy is a beagle, not a "funny looking kid with a big nose." Her realization came during a period when she refused to go to school and instead attempted to stay with Snoopy. Peppermint Patty can be dimwitted until March 21, 1974, she did not realize that Snoopy was a dog. Peppermint Patty finds out that Snoopy is not human in the strip from March 21, 1974. This has been explained by saying that her father works late, and she is too insecure to sleep until he returns home. ![]() Peppermint Patty's bad grades are possibly exacerbated by her tendency to sleep through class. She also finds patterns in her true-or-false tests, and often says her answers out loud ("True! False! False! True!") In a series of strips from 1984, Peppermint Patty is held back a grade for failing all of her classes-only to be allowed to return to her old class when her old desk in front of Marcie starts to emit snoring noises, leading children and faculty alike to suspect that the classroom is haunted by a "snoring ghost". ![]() In one comic strip, she got a Z-, which she called "sarcasm". She is widely known for receiving a D− grade on every test or assignment in school (in 1999, the final full year of Peanuts, her teacher presented her with a certificate placing her in the "D-Minus Hall of Fame"). Peppermint Patty can often be very lazy, especially when it comes to school. Peppermint Patty is well known for her identity as a tomboy she often plays sports and is probably the jock of the Peanuts gang. ![]() ![]() ![]() It does not install files in hidden directories, It reports protecting your personal information when posted online.

There are two parts to the term iambic pentameter. The crafting of the aural aspects of a poem is what we may call "ear training." Thus, the crafting of the visual aspects is what we'd call "eye training." Poetic Feet Writing Letters of Recommendation for StudentsĪ brief exploration of the various aspects of sound that can be utilized when making a poem.See Part 2 of our scansion conversation to deep-dive into how to make this poetic tool work for you. Once you’re comfortable with scanning poems, we’re ready to talk about how scansion can help you strengthen your own work. Here are common feet in the English language: You might like knowing what different meter rhythms are called.Ī unit of stressed and unstressed syllables is called a foot a foot consists of 2 or 3 syllables. Also, this website allows you to practice scansion, and this website has more practice examples. This video is our favorite! Make sure to check out our interview with Annie and hear her talk about why meter and scansion is so important. Poet Annie Finch, Queen of Meter, workshop leader, and author of several books of poetry and craft, has helpful tools available on her website to help you practice and master poetry scansion. In this stanza, it’s easy to see that Wordsworth uses a regular, rhythmic meter, which creates a pleasing musical tone for this poem. You can listen to the poem read out loud, which will help you see the relationship between scansion and meter, or rhythm. Let’s take a look at what the first stanza of William Wordsworth’s “ I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud” would look like. ![]() Now, we can use this same technique to scan (or mark the stressed and unstressed syllables) for a whole line of poetry. Clap loudly for the stressed syllables, and clap softly or just barely touch your hands together for the unstressed syllables. To practice getting attuned to meter, you might find it helpful to try clapping the syllables of a word or line while you read it out loud. Notice how the stressed / and unstressed u markings go above the syllable to show where the natural emphasis occurs in the word. If we wanted to scan the word “everybody,” it would look like this: We note unstressed syllables with a u mark. The second and fourth syllables are not emphasized they are unstressed syllables. These are called stressed syllables, and when we are noting meter, we note stressed syllables with a / mark. You might notice that you put more emphasis, or stress, on the first and second syllables. Try saying the word “everybody” out loud. A stressed syllable has more natural emphasis an unstressed syllable is not emphasized. To scan a poem, you first have to know how to identify stressed and unstressed syllables in a word or phrase. ![]() Take a moment and try singing “ Hickory Dickory Dock” or “ Hey Diddle Diddle” out loud, and notice how the rhythm of the rhyme propels it forward-this is meter in action! All right, so how do I scan a poem? Children’s nursery rhymes rely heavily on regular meter (and sometimes, on changes in meter) to create delight, surprise, and to underscore the meaning of the rhyme. Scansion, or the ability to scan a poem, is one tool available to help poets better understand their own poetry and the poetry they encounter.ĭelight in stressed and unstressed syllables is inherent to English-language speakers. Meter is the natural rhythm of speech and language, and while many of us have a natural or instinctive sense of musicality in poetry, learning how to recognize and talk about meter can help take that instinct and strengthen it. Scanning a poem allows us to visually see how the meter operates in a poem, and it allows us to notice patterns and changes in emphasis.Ĭareful attention to stressed and unstressed syllables also allows a poet to develop a deeper sense of a poem’s musicality and rhythm. Careful attention to meter allows a poet to develop a deeper sense of a poem’s musicality. The rhythm in a poem is made up of stressed and unstressed syllables-syllables with greater or lesser natural emphasis-and this is formally called meter. Scansion is the act of scanning a poem for meter, or marking each syllable and each line in a poem to notice where the stressed and unstressed syllables fall in a line of poetry. Tell Tell Poetry knows it is! But to use scansion effectively in your own work, first you have to know what it is and how to do it. ![]() But you’re not sure if meter is relevant to contemporary poetry. You know that Shakespeare and Yeats wrote in iambic pentameter, and maybe you have a vague memory of scanning a poem in high school English.

Glowing crystalline structures sprout from its forearms and hips. Azazel has curved spikes on its back and a long, segmented tail that ends in a pincer-like structure. Its hands have five clawed digits and it has bird-like feet. It has a pointed snout with an overbite, sharp teeth, and large ridged horns extending from the back of its head. In its own physical form, Azazel is a large bipedal creature with red eyes and purple skin. It has a strong belief in destiny and suggests that humanity's destruction is inevitable. Īzazel embodies its "Rectifier" moniker it arrogantly believes itself to be above mortal understanding and sees itself as a neutral agent of justice and judgement, meting out destruction on humanity in proportion to the destruction that humans themselves have caused. Seeking to efficiently hunt Jin and Kazuya down and thus destroy Azazel for good, Zafina made contact with the Sirius Marksmen. Zafina knew Azazel would resurface if Jin and Kazuya's devil blood was not eradicated. However, Azazel's power grew stronger even inside the seal. Zafina sensed this and used a ritual to seal its spirit within her body. Unbeknownst to most, Azazel's spirit survived the confrontation with Jin. Azazel was assumed to be dead, but Jin was found alive shortly after, still afflicted by the Devil Gene. Jin took his chance to challenge Azazel, and rushed it, using the power of his Devil Gene to punch through its chest despite its warning that a fatal attack would destroy Jin as well. However, Azazel reemerged outside the temple in its golden form following a fight between Jin and Lars. Lars fought it and appeared to defeat it, making it disappear in a flash of light. Azazel told Lars that humanity needed to atone for its sins and that it would be the one to subjugate them. Lars fought Kazuya, who subsequently left the temple, and then confronted Azazel in its chamber. ![]() Įventually, Kazuya, Jin, and Lars Alexandersson, a defector from Jin's Tekken Force, converged on Azazel's Temple. Jin told her that Azazel was already stirring and that it was too late to stop it. Zafina noticed this, and warned Jin to stop his warring before it was too late. Their war caused Azazel to grow in power. Kazuya, who was controlling G Corporation from the shadows, stepped up to oppose Jin and the Zaibatsu. Jin came to believe that destroying Azazel would rid him of the Devil Gene and save humanity from a path of self-destruction to this end, he used the Mishima Zaibatsu to stoke all-out war across the globe. Azazel began to speak telepathically with Jin, and told him that it would achieve physical form if the world was filled with enough negative energy. Jin and Kazuya were the "two dark stars" referenced in the prophecy. Thousands of years after its imprisonment, the seal binding Azazel broke due to fighting between Kazuya Mishima and his son, Jin Kazama, both of whom were carriers of the Devil Gene. A prophecy was passed down among Zafina's clan that stated that Azazel would awaken and destroy the world when "two dark stars" clashed in battle. Īt some point, humans overthrew Azazel, and Zafina's ancient ancestors imprisoned its spirit in the temple that was once built in its name, placing a magic seal to bind it within. It was once known as the "Rectifier" and is the progenitor of the Devil Gene. Azazel is a demon that ruled over the heavens and earth thousands of years ago. ![]() ![]() ![]() The seller is having some type of delay getting the title for the car so that might turn off a few buyers.

You will no longer be able to impregnate your partner. After the procedure is complete, ejaculations will continue to be and feel the same as prior to the procedure, but your semen will not contain any sperm. Want some more good news? A vasectomy does not mean you can’t have, or enjoy sex.Īfter a vasectomy, you’ll still be able to have erections, orgasms and ejaculate normally. And neither will the pitch of your voice. So the good news is your sex drive and hair patterns won’t change. A vasectomy does not reduce your sex drive.Īfter a vasectomy, your male hormone levels remain the same. So let's get some of the questions answered right off the bat. Of course, deciding that it’s time for your partner to have a vasectomy is one thing.This is the topic most everyone has, but is often too shy to ask. There is also a slight risk of ongoing pain but this is very rare. It can hurt – There will be some vasectomy pain and swelling in the groin or scrotum but ice and painkillers should be enough to manage it. It doesn’t protect against STIs – Babies, yes. In the end, we had it reversed as it felt wrong and unnatural to be ‘infertile’.” As one mum explains, “Psychologically it was hard on both of us after. It can be hard on poor hubs (and you) – Even though he’s technically not losing anything, it can still be difficult for men to come to terms with. It’s not a straightaway thing – It will take 8-12 weeks to get the all-clear that the sperm shop is officially closed. After all, you may not want any more rugrats today. Most doctors will need to speak to both husband and wife before going ahead, especially if the husband is under 35. No more babies – Although it’s a pro for many, it can also be a problem, especially if you do change your mind down the road. It’s hubby turn, right? Vasectomy cons to consider ![]() It’s the fair option – You went through pregnancy and childbirth. Compared to tubal litigation for ladies, this is a bargain! But it will generally cost around $800 for all consultations, surgical procedures, and sample follow-up. It’s not that expensive – Vasectomy cost will depend on your state, your age, and your private healthcare situation. Men still ejaculate – it’s just the sperm gets reabsorbed into his body rather than being mixed with the semen. It doesn’t change him – Getting the snip won’t rob him of his manhood, lower his testosterone or make him any less of a man. Most men are able to return to work within 24-72 hours. It’s a minor procedure – Generally done under light or general anaesthetic, a vasectomy takes around 30 minutes. ![]() No fumbling for condoms in the bedside drawer, at least! Plus, a vasectomy doesn’t decrease the libido of the man, just the risk of falling pregnant. It can make for better sex – After all, when there’s no risk of falling pregnant, it can be a lot more fun to head to the bedroom. No birth control! – It also means you can say goodbye to the pill, the Mirenaand the condoms. Men can go in for a vasectomy reversal, but it’s not guaranteed and it can be expensive. But, if you’re not sure, it’s probably best to stay clear of a vasectomy. No more babies – Which is a great plus, when you know you’re done. Snip snip, hooray! – Why say yes to the snip ![]() But there are a few more things to consider before booking your (his) vasectomy appointment. It sounds like a grand idea, right? You get to keep everything in working order and hubby has to go in for the snip. No sperm, no babies, no whoopsies for mum and dad. So men just ejaculate but the fluid won’t contain any sperm. It is a surgical procedure where the vas deferens tubes (located inside the scrotum) are cut, preventing sperm from being released into the semen. Unlike most birth control on the market, a vasectomy is all about dad. Considering closing down the baby-making factory? It’s a big decision, isn’t it? But before you shut the sperm shop, have a read of our list of pros and cons to see if it’s really the right option for you…we mean, your partner.Ī vasectomy is a common birth control option for couples that no longer want kids. ![]() |
