    When she found out she was shocked, “the reason it was deeded to the veterinary students was that the barn had bats and we were the only ones guaranteed to have a rabies vaccination” (Vogelsang 45).

    George Saunders’ “Puppy” and Toni Morrison’s “Recitatif” tell of two different stories with different characters in presumably different time periods. Both authors have drastically different backgrounds that bring them to these tales. However, their works of literature are more comparable than one would initially think. From the perspective of the reader, the intent of Puppy was to stress that there is often more to something than meets the eye and that because of this, we tend to want for things that we do not really understand. The families that appear in this story are perceived differently on the surface than they actually are underneath everything.…

    For as long as I have owned a smartphone, I have been a supporter and avid proponent for “unlocking” a new smartphone. On both Android and iPhone operating systems, a user can tweak various parts of the software on their phone to allow them to access capabilities that cell phone companies do not want their users utilizing. Opportunities such as allowing your smartphone unlimited hotspot tethering, making use of cell phone towers from other carriers, customizing software, and even downloading experimental non-approved apps are all features that come with unlocking a smartphone. For the Android world this process is called “rooting” and for the iPhone community unlocking a phone is known as “jail-breaking”. In the article “The iPhone Freedom…
