For your outline, identify the main sections: Start by determining the main sections or major ideas that you want to cover in your paper. These will serve as the primary headings or Roman numerals (I, II, III) in your outline. Generally, you should have an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion.
Break down the main sections: Under each main section, list subpoints or supporting details that expand on the main idea. These can be represented by capital letters (A, B, C) or Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3). Think about the key arguments or information you want to include in each section.
Provide further details: For each subpoint, include specific details, examples, or explanations that support and develop that subpoint. You can use lowercase letters (a, b, c) or lowercase Roman numerals (i, ii, iii) to indicate these additional levels of information.
Remember to keep your ideas connected to your thesis statement and annotated bibliography.

Wal-Mart Documentary: Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price
Major Persuasive/Argumentative Essay
In the documentary “Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price,” the filmmakers present
two perspectives regarding Wal-Mart. First, Wal-Mart executives claim that the retail
chain provides stable jobs in a family friendly atmosphere while helping local
communities and offering affordable products.
On the other hand, however, many economists, as well as communities, argue that the
retail giant is hurting the economy by putting local shop keepers out of business by
purchasing foreign-made products, and by exploiting overseas workers and store
employees.
In a 3-4 page well-developed 5-Paragraph essay (Introduction with thesis statement, a
minimum of three body paragraphs, and conclusion), take a position on the question: “Is
Wal-Mart Good for America?” and write a “persuasive” paper addressed to the public
detailing how the company is either “good” or “bad” for America.
This essay must incorporate a minimum of “2-3” secondary “scholarly” sources, follow
proper essay structure, and exhibit proper MLA format for formal essays including
proper in-text citations, parenthetical notes, and a works cited page.

Once you have finished adding all of your foods, scroll through the Nutrient Target Summaries.
By default, Cronometer set each nutrient to the recommended values as set by the DRI nutrition standards. The basic idea for these targets is to get at least 100% of the minimum value each day to have good nutrition. For nutrients that have a maximum, it is recommended to not exceed the maximum value.
Bars colored in yellow mean you have not yet reached your minimum target
Bars colored in green mean you have met the minimum target and not yet exceeded your maximum target.
Bars colored in red mean you have exceeded your maximum target.
You can mouse over a bar to see the top contributors from your diary on that day to meet this specific target.
Answer the following questions and submit them along with your saved Cronometer food analysis.

Think about “The Story of an Hour” in four parts:
hearing the news
holding back
letting go
the revelation
How does each part reveal additional information about Mrs. Mallard?
The Story Of an Hour-3
Knowing that Mrs. Mallard was afflicted with a heart trouble, great care was taken to break to her as gently as possible the news of her husband’s death.
It was her sister Josephine who told her, in broken sentences; veiled hints that revealed in half concealing. Her husband’s friend Richards was there, too, near her. It was he who had been in the newspaper office when intelligence of the railroad disaster was received, with Brently Mallard’s name leading the list of “killed.” He had only taken the time to assure himself of its truth by a second telegram, and had hastened to forestall any less careful, less tender friend in bearing the sad message.
She did not hear the story as many women have heard the same, with a paralyzed inability to accept its significance. She wept at once, with sudden, wild abandonment, in her sister’s arms. When the storm of grief had spent itself she went away to her room alone. She would have no one follow her.
There stood, facing the open window, a comfortable, roomy armchair. Into this she sank, pressed down by a physical exhaustion that haunted her body and seemed to reach into her soul.
She could see in the open square before her house the tops of trees that were all aquiver with the new spring life. The delicious breath of rain was in the air. In the street below a peddler was crying his wares. The notes of a distant song which some one was singing reached her faintly, and countless sparrows were twittering in the eaves.
There were patches of blue sky showing here and there through the clouds that had met and piled one above the other in the west facing her window.
She sat with her head thrown back upon the cushion of the chair, quite motionless, except when a sob came up into her throat and shook her, as a child who has cried itself to sleep continues to sob in its dreams.
She was young, with a fair, calm face, whose lines bespoke repression and even a certain strength. But now there was a dull stare in her eyes, whose gaze was fixed away off yonder on one of those patches of blue sky. It was not a glance of reflection, but rather indicated a suspension of intelligent thought.
There was something coming to her and she was waiting for it, fearfully. What was it? She did not know; it was too subtle and elusive to name. But she felt it, creeping out of the sky, reaching toward her through the sounds, the scents, the color that filled the air.
Now her bosom rose and fell tumultuously. She was beginning to recognize this thing that was approaching to possess her, and she was striving to beat it back with her will – as powerless as her two white slender hands would have been.
When she abandoned herself a little whispered word escaped her slightly parted lips. She said it over and over under her breath: “free, free, free!” The vacant stare and the look of terror that had followed it went from her eyes. They stayed keen and bright. Her pulses beat fast, and the coursing blood warmed and relaxed every inch of her body.
She did not stop to ask if it were or were not a monstrous joy that held her. A clear and exalted perception enabled her to dismiss the suggestion as trivial.
She knew that she would weep again when she saw the kind, tender hands folded in death; the face that had never looked save with love upon her, fixed and gray and dead. But she saw beyond that bitter moment a long procession of years to come that would belong to her absolutely. And she opened and spread her arms out to them in welcome.
There would be no one to live for during those coming years; she would live for herself. There would be no powerful will bending hers in that blind persistence with which men and women believe they have a right to impose a private will upon a fellow-creature. A kind intention or a cruel intention made the act seem no less a crime as she looked upon it in that brief moment of illumination.
And yet she had loved him – sometimes. Often she had not. What did it matter! What could love, the unsolved mystery, count for in face of this possession of self-assertion which she suddenly recognized as the strongest impulse of her being!
“Free! Body and soul free!” she kept whispering.
Josephine was kneeling before the closed door with her lips to the keyhole, imploring for admission. “Louise, open the door! I beg, open the door – you will make yourself ill. What are you doing Louise? For heaven’s sake open the door.”
“Go away. I am not making myself ill.” No; she was drinking in a very elixir of life through that open window.
Her fancy was running riot along those days ahead of her. Spring days, and summer days, and all sorts of days that would be her own. She breathed a quick prayer that life might be long. It was only yesterday she had thought with a shudder that life might be long.
She arose at length and opened the door to her sister’s importunities. There was a feverish triumph in her eyes, and she carried herself unwittingly like a goddess of Victory. She clasped her sister’s waist, and together they descended the stairs. Richards stood waiting for them at the bottom.
Some one was opening the front door with a latchkey. It was Brently Mallard who entered, a little travel-stained, composedly carrying his grip-sack and umbrella. He had been far from the scene of accident, and did not even know there had been one. He stood amazed at Josephine’s piercing cry; at Richards’ quick motion to screen him from the view of his wife.
But Richards was too late.
When the doctors came they said she had died of heart disease – of joy that kills.
