Writings by Edgar Allan Poe Insight
Dezzie B. Ligon III 10/30/12 English 5 Mr. Rabot Without Recourse Thesis: The act of death is that of many intricate parts. It is destined, at times a mystery that is sought, frequently sudden and ill accepted, and recurrently caused by vengeance lacking true justice. Title: ââ¬Å"Conqueror Wormâ⬠In life lies destiny, in destiny lies death. The poem ââ¬Å"Conqueror Wormâ⬠by Edgar Allan Poe exemplifies this fact by portraying man as a tragedy and a worm as the hero.The poem is set as a play with a plot telling of sin, madness, and horror. The angels are the audience members, man is shown as mimes that fly around as mere puppets, and the writhing Conqueror Worm surfaces at the climax of the play and devours said mimes. After the curtainââ¬â¢s fall the angels then confirm ââ¬Å"that the play is the tragedy ââ¬Å"Manâ⬠, and its hero the Conqueror Worm. â⬠The theme of this poem is conveyed to the reader in the quote ââ¬Å"The mimes become its foodâ⬠. T he meaning of this is that in the end, all of man is destined to die and become worm food.His use of diction in the choosing of the word ââ¬Å"becomeâ⬠instead of a word such as ââ¬Å"areâ⬠tells the reader that man is not born as worm food, but as destiny catches up they will inevitably succumb to such a fate. Additionally, although the Conqueror Worm is the collection of all worms that ultimately devour manââ¬â¢s bodies, it is also the embodiment of death itself. Surprisingly, Poe uses this embodiment of death as the protagonist of the story. This then creates the conflict of Man vs. Death, or more simply Character vs. Nature. Man is the Character while Death is Nature. Sadly, in such a conflict Nature always prevails.This conflict thus gives more support to the idea that death is but the destiny of man. This ending destiny is also shown in the quote ââ¬Å"Out-out are the light-out all! â⬠in which after the arrival of the writhing worm nothing but darkness re mains. Manââ¬â¢s mortality will always plague itself because there is only one thing man is meant to do. That is the everlasting fate of becoming nothing but worm food. Title: ââ¬Å"Ms. Found in a Bottleâ⬠In death lies mystery, in mystery lies those who seek answers. The short story ââ¬Å"Ms. Found in a Bottleâ⬠by Edgar Allan Poe illustrates this idea through the intricate retelling of the final moments of a manââ¬â¢s life.The story is told through first person view by an unnamed narrator. The narrator originally sets sail from Java on a ship headed to the Sunda Islands; however the trip is ruined by a storm that kills all crew members except for him and an old swede. Though they are alive, there ship is swept south by a whirlpool for 5 days before a black ships appears and collides with his ship. The narrator is thus thrown onto the new ship where he comes into contact with very ancient looking crew members who do not acknowledge his presence. Eventually he over comes his despair and eagerly awaits the discovery of the most southern parts of the world.Sadly, before reaching their final destination the ice parts revealing a giant whirlpool that sinks the very large black ship. The underlying theme of the story is conveyed in the quote ââ¬Å"I presume, utterly impossible; yet a curiosity to penetrate the mysteries of these awful regions, predominates even over my despairâ⬠in which the narrator tells the reader that his yearning for answers to the mysteries of the unchartered region stands above his actual fear of death. However, the unexplored region isnââ¬â¢t actually that of the south.The south is just an embodiment of the realm of the dead and the curiosity the narrator feels is for the mystery of the inevitable death. The whirlpool that takes him and the ancient crew mates to such a realm is a symbol used by Poe to depict a doorway to an unknown place. This is a perfect symbol because the whirlpool only brings things down into t he depths, the depths of the underworld itself. Additionally, the wanting of answers is also portrayed in the statement ââ¬Å"It is evident that we are hurrying onwards to some exciting knowledge-some never-to-be imparted secret, whose attainment in destructionâ⬠.Here it is obvious that the knowledge they are seeking is that of death, death being that which leads to destruction of oneself. The ancient crew members he set final voyage with seemed quite peculiar. It was as if they were on the brink of death but holding out for a sole reason. Right before the whirlpool hits it is said ââ¬Å"but there is upon their countenances an expression more of the eagerness of hope than of the apathy of despair. â⬠The ancient ship mates seem to know of what is to come and smile because now they can truly find the answers they sought.To both them and eventually the narrator, death is something they seek because the mysteries of the realm of the dead are to interesting to be left unansw ered. Title: Annabel Lee In death lies abruptness, in abruptness lies ill acceptance. The poem ââ¬Å"Annabel Leeâ⬠by Edgar Allan Poe exemplifies this idea through the poetic telling of the death of a young boyââ¬â¢s loved one. Annabel Lee, who long ago lived ââ¬Å"in a kingdom by the seaâ⬠, loved the narrator; however she was abruptly killed by a wind that chilled her.The narrator mad with love thought that the Angels had envied their love and conspired with nature to send said wind that killed her. According to the narrator, their love was too strong to be severed by the ââ¬Å"Angels in heaven aboveâ⬠or the ââ¬Å"demons down under the seaâ⬠. He is reminded of Annabel Lee by everything, ââ¬Å"For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams of Annabel Leeâ⬠, and at night he lies by her tomb by the sea. The theme of the poem is conveyed in the lines ââ¬Å"With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven coveted her and me.And this was the reason t hat, long agoâ⬠¦ A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling my beautiful Annabel Leeâ⬠. Here depicts the idea that when one suddenly dies someone else tends to have a hard time accepting their death and instead places blame on things which blame cannot logically be placed. The narrator, along with many other people in real life, has trouble accepting the death of someone he loved so strongly. Thus, he seeks to blame the Angels or more specifically but only through inference, God. ââ¬Å"The angelsâ⬠¦ went envying her and me-Yes! that was the reasonâ⬠¦ that the wind cameâ⬠¦ killing my Annabel Lee. â⬠Once again, the ill acceptance of the sudden death of his loved one is shown by him still ludicrously placing blame on angels controlling the winds. This constant condemnation of the Angels then creates a small Character vs. Nature conflict in which the narrator-being the character-just isnââ¬â¢t fully able to accept this sudden death caused by Nature. We all know death is inevitable, however, when it rears its ugly fangs and causes a late death of someone we care about, we lack the capability of complete acceptance.Title: The Cask of Amontillado In death lies revenge, in revenge lies injustice. The short story ââ¬Å"The Cask of Amontilladoâ⬠portrays this idea through the recount of a vengeful plot devised by the narrator Montresor. At its beginning it is shown that Montresor held a grudge against Fortunato. Montresor says ââ¬Å"when he ventured upon insult, I vowed revengeâ⬠. Fortunatoââ¬â¢s insult is unknown but to the narrator it is quite serious. He then with the use of reverse psychology, tricks Fortunato into becoming intoxicated and into a niche hidden deep within the Montresor catacombs.Montresor then easily overcomes the drunken Fortunato and chains him within the niche. To finish his plot of revenge he walls Fortunato into his newfound tomb. The underlying theme of the story is conveyed in the quote ââ¬Å"I hastened to make an end of my laborâ⬠. At first glance it would seem this is simply referring to Montresor and his completion of his makeshift wall, but it has a much stronger hidden meaning. The use of the word ââ¬Å"endâ⬠refers to the sentence given to the convicted and the use of the word ââ¬Å"laborâ⬠is that of the arduous take of being jury, judge, and executioner.Montresor, driven by vengeance, creates his own untrue law and condemns the accused to a penalty not of death but that which will inevitably lead to such a fate. This odd ââ¬Å"sentenceâ⬠of Fortunato by Montresor can also be originally seen in the line ââ¬Å"I must not only punish, but punish with impunity. â⬠Here Montresor says he has to punish him, but in a paradoxical way punish him without punishing him. This is indeed what Montresor tried to do by locking him away, but letting him live.However, the idea of punishment with impunity is ludicrous because it is not possible. In reality, Montr esor did punish him thus being another reason why vengeance is of untrue justice and law. Poe, making Montresor the protagonist, even though he is indeed doing evil deeds also supports the idea of vengeance without true law. When vengeance causes death, or like here when vengeance speeds up the ever turning wheel of the inevitable, it is not possible for justice to be uninvolved. However, it is also impossible for true and ââ¬Å"goodâ⬠justice to be associated as well.

If a TFN is not provided, the employee can be taxed up to 49% of their income. If an employee has submitted a form for a TFN and is waiting to receive it, then the employer should deduct normal income tax for up to 28 days, after which they resume taxing at the maximum rate.

The Juvenile Justice System Essay examples - 1326 Words
The Juvenile Justice System Jodia M Murphy Kaplan University CJ150 Juvenile Delinquency Professor Thomas Woods July 31, 2012 Abstract This paper takes a brief look at the history and evolution of the juvenile justice system in the United States. In recent years there has been an increase of juvenile cases being transferred into the adult court system. This paper will also look at that process and the consequences of that trend. History and Evolution In the early nineteenth century juveniles were treated the same as adults when it came to the legal system. We did not have separate courts or jails for juveniles and they would often receive the same punishments as adults that had committed crimes. ââ¬Å"At the beginning of theâ⬠¦show more contentâ⬠¦There are three ways cases are sent to adult court, there is concurrent jurisdiction where certain cases can be tried in either juvenile or adult court, statutory exclusion, where certain offenses are automatically tried in adult court and judicial waiver where a hearing is held to decide whether the case will be transferred (Seigel amp; Welsh, 2011). While the process does differ from State to State there are some basic guidelines ââ¬Å"â⬠¦states that have transfer hearings provide a legitimate transfer hearing, sufficient notice to the childââ¬â¢s family and defense attorney, the right to counsel, and a statement of the reason for the court orde r regarding transferâ⬠Seigel amp; Welsh, 2011). Depending on which side you view the transfer issue from, the consequences can be positive or negative. On the positive side the juvenile is afforded more constitutional rights in the adult system, such as a trial by jury. For some juveniles it could mean a chance of having their charges dismissed (Seigel amp; Welsh, 2011). By transferring juveniles into the adult system you are more likely to have violent offenders taken off the streets and given tougher sentences for violent crimes than they would haveShow MoreRelatedJuvenile And Juvenile Justice System752 Words à |à 4 PagesThe juvenile justice system and criminal justice system also known as the adult justice system is two different systems.

Auditing and Assurance Confusion of Market Transactions
Question: Discuss about the Auditing and Assurance Confusion of Market Transactions. Answer: Introduction This particular report mainly highlights on various issues that are related to the auditors responsibility, particularly during the period when the global financial crisis took place and affected the whole society. At the time of global financial crisis, it had been found that the financial auditors were incapable to serve rational reassurance to the fiscal declarations of the firm that it was not spoiled. Moreover, they failed to provide rationale reassurance to the organizations regarding the fiscal declarations that it does not contain any material errors. The Auditing Standards of Australia imply that most of the users depend on the firms fiscal statements as the main source of data (William, Glover and Prawitt, 2016). The reason behind this is that the fiscal information users are unable to attain any kind of additional data that are required for meeting the need of any particular information. This report has been prepared for providing information to the Chartered Accounting or ganizations partner i.e. Sally Smith in order to illustrate the liability of the auditors during financial crisis (global) for expanding the entire auditing system. It can also be said that the aim of preparing this report is to scrutinize the impact of the crisis and the fluctuations in the macro economy on the auditors liability within a authoritarian environment. Financial Crisis and Auditors Liability This portion of the report deals with detailed study of global financial crisis and is related to the auditors liability. It has been found that the fiscal volatility comprehends the concept of this crisis. Nonetheless, various troubles were manifested from the side of social, economic and political environment. This period shows duration of disorder, tension and critical testing in society (Redmayne, 2013). Thus, financial crisis took place due to various state of affairs of various financial actions, an alteration and a break that exemplified the stagnation, slowdown and declination in the financial actions. As a result, financial crisis is considered to reflect on the mistrust in the whole monetary system across the world and decline in the prices of the share prices and commodities in the stock exchange. However, as per Eilifsen et al. (2013), this global crisis is considered as an opportunity to repair various factors of monetary system, particularly the shortcomings that lead to monetary downturn. The international institutions and government can beat all the negative impacts of the crisis by guiding the international fiscal reform system accurately. As this helps in maintaining transparency, accurate regulations of market, development of rules regarding securities account and maintenance of integrity among fiscal markets that strengthens the cooperation between monetary institutions across the world. Moreover, the improvement of various monetary firms become more complex due to identification of price and increases the investors risks. Additionally, accurate risk assessment and determination of its origin help in regulation augmentation and administration of economic system. As per ASA 700 i.e. Accounting Standard of Australia, there is a differentiation in Responsibilities of Auditors in Fiscal Declarations and it can be found in Para 37 to 40 ASA 700 (Louwers et al., 2013). Opined to the regulation, an auditors responsibilities include fiscal declaration presentation and he is also responsible for providing compliance statement. The auditors are also liable for addressing financial reporting and other reporting accountabilities like Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements. Therefore, an auditor is responsible for financial declarations and also examines if the regulations of the firm comply with the financial reporting framework. It has been found that the evaluators are responsible for opinion issuance on fiscal declarations of an organization. During auditing, the evaluators are highly responsible for audit engagement and kind of rendered fiscal services. The evaluator also develops various missions for determining fiscal reports along with report structure (Cohen and Simnett, 2014). Additionally, the auditor practices professional skepticism during nature identification, duration and extent of auditing process. Furthermore, evaluation of audit evidences takes place for recognizing whether the fiscal declaration is free of material misstatement or not. Opined to Arens (2016), the auditors are liable for reviewing quality of monetary reporting. Auditing helps in controlling the quality through competition of the audit programs, dating and signing of the documents. Additionally, analysis, synthesis of various balance elements and profit and loss also helps in the process. The auditors are liable for detecting risk that occurs due to fraudulent activities and error and for maintaining internal control. In addition, error detection includes incorrect statistical calculations determination, misinterpretation regarding various factors and misapplication of accounting policies (Grant and Wilson, 2013). Nevertheless, fraudulent activities detection is considered as liability for the evaluators with the aim to determine the thefts of various properties and diversions. Moreover, it helps in omitting various impacts of monetary transactions on fiscal statements and misapplication of various strategies of accounting that usually result into mi sinterpretation of the users regarding economic data. It can also be said that the present financial status is affected adversely through the global crisis of economy as it leads to impact of both regional budgets of government and organizations. During the particular period, the main motivators of growth required to send at home the staff members of various corporations and the facilities of investing also decreased. Therefore, during the global financial crisis, most of the evaluators undertook several challenging works for handling the uncertainty and also the unsteady condition. Consequently, it has been found that the liability of the auditors of most of the organizations is significantly amplified in various financial circumstances (Arens, Elder and Beasley, 2014). Therefore, the auditors of the firms were required to deal with high risk and were presented by complex financial environment or else uncertain environment through the maintenance of continuous affiliation with the customers. Additionally, the connections were maintaine d through communications especially with those who oversight the accountability for fiscal declarations and along with it the communiqu with the management department. Furthermore, the evaluators were required to consider various accounts regarding planning of the strategies of auditing, going concern, understanding the operations of the organization and its environment (Claessens and Van Horen, 2015). It also includes audit of various fair value inventories, superannuation plans, consideration of audits for various fiscal statements, opinions of auditors and reveal of financial reporting. Continuance of the Association of Client It has been found that during the occurrence of financial crisis, the management department for internal controls and segregating the business practices changed the business practices of most of the organizations. Therefore, these can help in imitating the lack of integrity. Moreover, the indications are comprised of certain substances, which result an evaluator to lift questions about the correctness of the engagement of audit (William, Glover and Prawitt, 2016). At this particular situation, the auditors of the firm require to consider all the regulatory and legal compulsions with the aim to withdraw or continue the customer association. Communications with the Individuals having Knowledge about the Procedure of Financial Reporting As per Simnett, Carson and Vanstraelen (2016), the organization, equivalent governance and the Board of Directors are considered for various oversight functions of the firm. These are liable for governance that is in line with the listing regulations of ASX that develops audit committee and can play the function critically in the economic reporting. However, this particular role became more serious during global financial crisis. The reason behind this is that it includes overseeing of the established process and the maintenance of internal controls regards reliability of fiscal declarations of various organizational concerns. Moreover, the amplification of global financial crisis results into auditors liability. Thus, the evaluator along with the people of governing units counts the risks that are faced by a specified organization. However, this makes it certain about the committee that considers the account and influences the ore-existing and new risks on oversight of the accountab ility for the processes of fiscal reporting. This process involves reconfirmation with the firms management about the reporting system and internal control system (Grant and Wilson, 2013). Moreover, the organization also faces troubles regarding high liquidity risk and also contains material improbability. As a result, the appraiser is required to appraise the firms capability regarding keeping the organization in a going concern situation. Additionally, the managements judgment should be understood by the auditor for differentiating the illiquid assets value and supporting the varied information. Communication with the governing units and the management The auditors liability calls for requirement of the preservation of standard communication along with the firms governing units. During financial crisis, significance of this is considered as more vital to resolve various problems on a timely basis. Thus, the auditors can be conscious regarding the material weaknesses in the internal control procedure, which should result into development of probable material misstatement in the fiscal declarations. Moreover, the auditors of the firm put spotlight on understanding of the business operations and its external and internal environment (Kunz et al., 2014). Therefore, the auditors require assessing various factors. The auditors liability directs towards the evaluation procedure of the risk that is concerned with the material misstatement in the fiscal declarations that are owned to fraud. In addition to these, the auditors should also determine and respond to various risks that are related to fraudulent activities of business operations a nd this involves specific risks about fraud that are understood by the management department of the firm. Considerations about Going Concern Concept Opined to Barnard et al. (2014), generally the auditors of the organization require using various assumptions of going concern concept accurately in order to prepare several fiscal declarations. In addition to these, the auditors should consider the material uncertainties that are related to the business capability in order to persist as a going concern. Moreover, during global financial crisis, credit availability got reduced and at similar moment illiquidity took place for short run (Cohen and Simnett, 2014). Therefore, this implies that various potential issues might affect the procedure of prolongation of the operation of an organization as a going concern. Planning the Whole Policy of Auditing It has been found that the global financial crisis puts direction towards the requirement for development of strategy particularly for the preparation of economic audit report. An auditors responsibility includes amendments and up gradation of various data that are obtained through auditing. The accounting policy highlights the types and as per that allocate the resources, as these can be used for specific audit zones, materiality and timing of various processes that are included within the process of auditing. Moreover, the auditors should consider the asset impairment computations, measurement of fair value, legal issues about regulations and contracts, tax asset write-downs, fraud risk factors, superannuation fund enumeration and factors that upset the capacity of the enterprises as a going concern (Knechel and Salterio, 2016). Understanding the Business Environment and the Business Entity It is important for the auditors to have perfect understanding regarding the operations of a firm and its environment. They should also focus on particular regions of fiscal declarations in order to identify the material misstatements (Junior, Best and Cotter, 2014). In addition to these, the auditors of an organization should consider various regions of fiscal reporting, particularly those involve the impairments of several recorded asset value, adjustments in accounting, arrangements of debt among many and changes in the total capital of share. Documentation According to the Accounting Standard of Australia that is ASA 230, it can be stated that the auditor of an organization should maintain all the documents (Simnett, Zhou and Hoang, 2016). The reason behind making documentation is that it helps in making the matter certain about an auditor and this include he has an accurate and enough record of data and information regarding the performance of the firm with the aim to sustain the conclusion. Collapse of the Lehman Brother and the Liability of the Auditors It has been found that the collapse of the American Investment Bank i.e. Lehman Brothers leads to the worst global financial crisis at the period of Great Depression. According to the financial experts, it is difficult to forecast the government activities in future. Moreover, they were unable to identify defaults regarding subprime mortgages that were liable for collapse of the firm. It has been found that the particular firm had insufficient liquidity, though it has huge asset base. Therefore, during the period, the other banks started to worry regarding the unsound condition of economy and thus, they shifted to other motive of protecting their interest and also to begin withdrawal of line credits. Moreover, Lehman was entirely exposed to U.S. market of real estate. It has been found that the firm put a huge quantity of $ 60 billion in the commercial market and thus it was counted as huge subprime mortgage (Junior, Best and Cotter, 2014). Therefore, collapse of Lehman is considered as the official triggering of financial downfall as it brought monetary recession in the society. It can be said that this collapse and the recession created a huge shock to both the international and domestic markets and remained as the largest filling of the bankruptcy. The fundamental issues of Lehman Brothers were developed for many years and were not revisited, whereas, the fraudulent activities of fiscal declarations that are incorporated by the organization itself aimed to cover up the key issues apparently. Moreover, it intended to buy time only for the pledge that was neglected and unappreciated by the firms auditor over an enhanced period of time. Thus, it can be said that the collapse of the particular Bank is considered as a vital lesson for the auditors of all organizations. Moreover, this particular incident puts direction towards the auditors liability for scrutinizing the fiscal declarations that are represented by the management department of the firms. Additionall y, an auditors responsibility is to judge a factor regarding the preparation and presentation of the fiscal statements fairly as per the principles of accounting that is the Australian Accounting Standards Board (Arens et al., 2015). Conclusion It can be concluded that the auditors of all organizations should prepare new strategies for gathering evidence regarding upholding the myriad fiscal statements of the management and to examine whether these statements have any corrective assertions within the limitations of materiality. Thus, in order to express any opinion, an auditor should scrutinize all the obtainable evidences for concluding and sustaining the material monetary statements. However, it has been found that the professional skepticism is able to drive the auditors judgment regarding the confirmations that are needed to obtain the particular state. Moreover, the accounting principles are perfunctory and prescriptive in nature. The auditing rules require behavioral nature as the mechanisms and tests are considered as much descriptive and more dependent on the auditors judgment. Therefore, the auditors are counted to be sovereign in their appearances and facts. Moreover, a greater descriptive reasoning is required to incorporate for concluding the standard has been met or not. As a result, the auditors should put importance on the review of the audit evidences, however, due care can also be implemented in the procedure of auditing.
