Orphaned non-free media (Image:CdEPcover.jpg) edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:CdEPcover.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 03:00, 28 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

The Umbrella Sequence edit

Adding several extra steps to the process, and several more days for waiting for responses, would bring things grinding to a halt. Sorry. - TexasAndroid 13:06, 28 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Two writers, (Mr. Audubon and Dillard), wrote two articles on similar topics, discussing huge masses of migrating birds, that exposed the differences in their writing. Because the two writers are describing similar things, the reader can easily differentiate between the different styles and diction of the two writers. The three most prevalent of the differences between the two passages are extended metaphors, imagery, and the utilization of pathos versus ethos. Although differences between the two passages are move prevalent, there are also a few similarities, other than just the subject matter. They both have a similar tone, one of pure awe of the beauty and power to move that the myriads of birds have. The comparison of these two similar passages is an effective way to demonstrate the differences in the style of the two writers.
The first difference between the two writers’ respective styles is the two different extended metaphors that the passages utilize. There are two major discrepancies of the two extended metaphors that the passages use. The first is Audubon’s usage of describing the birds using military terms, such as legions and columns. This is juxtaposed by Dillard’s description of the birds by words that evoke a major sense of motion, such as. The other disagreement between the two piece’s styles, as far as extended metaphors, is how
