Toni Morrison is referencing the poet Dante Alighieri, who wrote these words in his "Inferno" as a reflection on the human condition. She uses this quote to convey her belief that writing should seek to reveal and illuminate truths that may already be known but are often overlooked or suppressed.

You just got into college you are starting that college in fall 2009 you were wondering how bad must your grades be for you to get kicked out of the college before you even start attending?

If you received an acceptance letter with no conditions attached to it, then you are accepted. They are not going to come back and decline your acceptance. However, if the acceptance letter is conditional, in other words saying something to the order of, " Your acceptance is conditional upon successful completion of courses already in progress," then they can inform you that you acceptance has been invalidated.

Are there any subcategories to user acceptance testing If yes, what are those?

Yes, there are four types of user acceptance testing, as follows: Alpha and beta testing Alpha testing refers to the tests that developers conduct by themselves. It does not involve the end-users in any way. It is one of the first stages of testing an application. On the other hand, if you, as end-users, conduct a test for an unreleased application, it would be beta testing. Beta testing helps developers identify the issues that arise when actual users work with an application. Contract acceptance testing Contract acceptance testing involves testing a product and seeing if it meets the terms specified in a contract. If the application meets all those terms, contract acceptance testing is successful. On the contrary, if there are flaws in the application and it does not meet the contract requirements, the developers must work on the application and rectify those issues. If the developers fail to meet those requirements, they may face legal action. Regulation acceptance testing Regulation acceptance testing resembles contract acceptance. In the case of contract acceptance, the client sets the guidelines and requirements for the application. However, in the case of regulation acceptance, bodies like the government lay the guidelines. These guidelines ensure that the application does not compromise national security, people, etc. The developers must meet those guidelines to launch the application for public use. Failing to do so may lead to fines, a ban on the application, and other legal action. Operational acceptance testing Operational acceptance testing falls under quality management. It aims to ascertain that the application is ready to go into the production environment. It also establishes that the already existing platforms can support the application. Freelance platforms like Eiliana enable you to find excellent user testing jobs.


What should you do if you cant move on from a failed relationship?

First of all, you can get over it -- just not yet. The end of a relationship can be a little like a death, and it goes through phases. Usually, the sequence is denial, anger, bargaining and finally, acceptance. Chances are you've already done denial, and maybe bargaining. Let yourself feel a little anger -- go ahead and blame the jerk who dumped you. Get that out, and trust yourself. You can get to acceptance and move on. Live long and prosper!
