    Quite honestly, not a lot of individuals really know what these figures mean; a lot of us will just be estimating what it could mean with no real reasoning. Seems unfair that certain industries will throw these estimates towards the public, unless they’re scare tactics; excuse me for bringing in an opinion of my own. According, to the Trading Economics, “The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in the United States has expanded 1.5 percent in the second quarter of 2012 over the previous quarter. Historically, from 1947 until 2012, the United States GDP Growth Rate averaged 3.3 percent reaching an all time high of 17.2 percent in March of 1950 and a record low of -10.4 percent in March of 1958 ("United states gdp," 2012).…

    The cover of the novel The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald incorporates many of the recurring themes and motifs that are expressed throughout the novel. Francisco Couradal-Cougat worked with Fitzgerald to create the most recognizable book cover in American literature. My cover of the novel is called The Distracted Dream. I gave The Great Gatsby the title of The Distracted Dream because the novel is primarily about Gatsby’s dream of being with his true love Daisy. Gatsby believes that if he has enough success, then he will be worthy of Daisy and they will be able to run off together. Throughout the novel money and material things distract Gatsby from his dream and he loses the true meaning of it. Gatsby is so focused on his dream that it he is distracted from other intervening factors in life such as Daisy’s husband and child that she already has. He refuses to admit that they are important influences on the success of his dream. The title also relates to the theme of the corruption of the American Dream that is prevalent in the novel. Many people during the 1920s came to America in order to fulfill “The American Dream”, which was associated with wealth and success. The parties and materialism present in the 1920s distracted many people and they forgot about their original desires and the true meaning of the American Dream.…

    The ancient Sinhalese were skilled engineers. This can be seen in the works that have come down to us, such as the stupa and the irrigation system. Contemporary engineers have saluted this achievement. The logo of the Institution of Engineers, Sri Lanka (IESL) has as its most prominent feature, a dagoba. Other items in the logo include a sluice gate and a reservoir. This logo was reproduced on a stamp in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the IESL. The IESL has also included studies on ancient engineering skills in its multi-volume publication ‘History of Engineering in Sri Lanka.’ (2006) C.R. Panabokke stated at a recent talk before the Royal Asiatic Society, that irrigation in ancient Sri Lanka was an indigenous development. The techniques were not introduced from India. The dry zone was not flat, though it appears so. It is undulating, which meant that it contained valleys and had a lot of drainage. The irrigation schemes of the north central province were set in these valleys. Ancient irrigation started first with channels, then ponds using first and second order streams then came the creation of small tanks and thereafter the large irrigation schemes. . The techniques used in the ancient irrigation projects have evoked admiration. They were considered to be ‘without parallel elsewhere in the world, when it came to sophistication’. Parker said of Pavatkulam, whose original name is not known, that ‘it is astonishing to find this early work adhering to the best type of later designs. There was a single inlet culvert and two outlets. The designer had enlarged the sectional areas of the inlet and outlet culvert from their entrance to their outlets. Without such enlargement the resulting increased pressure would tend to force the water through the joints of the masonry to the back. This would remove the soil in suspension and eventually lead to failure of the reservoir. The embankment had a total height of 24 ft in the deeper part of the reservoir. The four…
