A Big Year
By Bob Kowalski
Would you go to the ends of the earth to see a bird? What if it were a really special bird: one with beautiful feathers, an entrancing call, or a silly dance? What if seeing that one special bird would allow you to win a contest?
If that contest doesn't get you on television or win you any cash prizes, would you still do it? For those who participate in the "Big Year," the honor of beating the previous record is the only reward they get or even want.
A "Big Year" is a year in which a person attempts to see as many different species of birds as possible within a particular region. For most in North America who participate in a "Big Year," this region is the lower 48 American states, plus Alaska, Canada, and a couple of French islands off the Canadian coast.
You may be thinking that looking at birds is silly, but just think about the numbers of the recent record holders and the commitment it takes to get these numbers. One recent "Big Year" winner managed to see 744 birds in one year, missing the record by just one bird. Big Year birders travel by train, plane, boat, car, bicycle, and of course, by foot. They can cover over 150 thousand miles to get numbers of sightings this high. They can also spend a small fortune.
Just to clarify, the birds these contestants are counting are the number that they see in a particular year. You see, the contest is based on an honor system. No pictures or other evidence is required as proof of a sighting. Most birders take great pride in their reputation and their abilities to see or hear and then identify a bird. Usually, important sightings of the rare birds needed to get counts in the 700s are visited by hundreds of birders. It is pretty hard to cheat your way to a record-breaking year, but in general, few are interested in cheating.
This honesty comes from the fact that most people who want to break such a record know the greatest rewards are not necessarily in winning. Such rewards are in being able to commit a year of your life to doing something you love. Rewards are found in seeing amazing, inspiring creatures like the California Condor or the Magnificent Frigate bird. Rewards also come in spending time with people who, like you, want to spend their time looking to the skies and trees for glimpses of emerald, crimson, or cerulean blue feathered jewels.
You don't have to be able to travel a continent to have a big birding experience though. Have a big month. Or a big weekend. Set a personal record, learn to identify the species that live in your part of the world, or try to learn the calls of just two species of birds. You will soon find looking at birds isn't such a strange way to spend your time.
Extra! Extra! Backyard Birding
Many schools, families, and young birders across the country participate in the "Great Backyard Bird Count." While not as long as a "Big Year," the "Great Backyard Bird Count" happens every year. It depends on birders and families across the country to watch feeders and other areas in their yards and count the number of birds they see. Unlike the "Big Year," the goal is not to see who can count the most birds. Instead, participants in this event work together to help bird experts get a good idea of how birds are doing. Participants are given checklists and enter their sightings on a website. Called a "citizen-science" project, this event is open to anyone, requires no travel, and happens every year over one weekend in February.

HELP QUICKLY?? 100 POINTS!!! 10. What images does Thomas create with his words in this stanza (what do you see in your head based on his descriptions)? Make sure to provide textual evidence to support the imagery you see.
Answer (You didn't tell me what poem and which stanza) Is it this poem? :
"Do not go gentle into that good night" by Dylan Thomas
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
What images does Thomas create with his words in this stanza (what do you see in your head based on his descriptions)?:
Thomas wrote "Do not go gentle into that good night" during a very specific moment in Dylan Thomas's life. His father, David John Thomas, had first introduced him to the wonder of language by reading him Shakespeare before bed at night. Thomas's father was a grammar school teacher, but he had always wanted to be a poet but was never able to realize his dream. Thomas wrote "Do not go gentle into that good night" because his father was dying.

During school program you noticed that your friends clothes look much better than yours
She look beautiful in that dress, I said to myself when I noticed one of my friend wearing a very sparkling clothes. I thought for a moment why didn't my mother brought me beautiful clothes like others, why is my mother only the old fashion lady, all these question arrived in my mind just at that time.
As I got home I looked for my mother everywhere but she was nowhere to be found. I asked my neighbors but they either couldn't tell me where she was.
I feeling hopeless sat at the corner of the room thinking that my mother has left me alone all by my self, but to my astonishment there was this "knock knock" I ran towards the door open it and a lady looking so much worried entered in the house. I felt very blue looking at my mother and went to her to ask what was the matter. She tried to hide from me, but the man standing besides her told me that she was suffering form cancer. I was shocked to hear this and ran up in my room. All night I was sobbing and feeling so embarrassed that how greediness has killed my inner piece.
It has taken life of my mother who meant too much for me , without her I was nothing, without her I had no place of my own. Then and there I realized how my greediness has cost me.

STEVE
(raising his voice)
There's something you can do, Charlie. You could go home and keep your mouth shut. You could quit strutting around like a self-appointed hanging judge and just climb into bed and forget it.
CHARLIE
You sound real anxious to have that happen, Steve. I think we better keep our eye on you too!
DON
(as if he were taking the bit in his teeth, takes a hesitant step to the front)

And then we might as well set up some kind of a kangaroo court. How about a firing squad at dawn, Charlie, so we can get rid of all the suspects. Narrow them down. Make it easier for you.
DON
There's no need gettin' so upset, Steve. It's just that . . . well . . . Myra's talked about how there's been plenty of nights you spent hours down in your basement workin' on some kind of radio or something. Well, none of us have ever seen that radio—

What is the similarities and differences of intimate
RDER
and casual speech style.
Intimate
Casual
Answer:
Explanation:
Both Casual and intimate speech style are used in an informal setting (unofficial scenario between colleagues, friends or members of a social group). Both types of speech usually do not require a lot of coordination or measured approach, arrangement or careful selection of phrases as could be required in an official or formal set up. However, it is worthy of noting that intimate and casual aren't the same, even though both are speeches are operated on an informal level, the intimate speech style is often used between people who share a very close relationship, this include very close friend or family member, between spouses and so on. Casual speeches may occur between colleagues and those we share a lesser degree of intimacy with. Content and mode of intimate speeches are often more informal and as such very loose than between casual speeches.

Explain Feklisov's rationale for American assistance to the Soviets?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached or further context, we can say the following.
Feklisov's rationale for American assistance to the Soviets was that the United States government was interested in the scientific minds and technology developed in the Soviet Union. So helping some Soviets coming to America, the government could learn about the secrets behind Soviet weaponry and technologies.
Let's have in mind that these were the times of the Cold War, in which the United States and the Soviet Union competed in the arms race, the space race, and in the spreading/containment of Communism around the world.
Colonel Alexander Feklisov (1914-2007) was a Soviet spy who has a legal residency in the United States.
