I think the central idea of “From War to America by: Christian Luis” is Hope is stronger than fear. I know this because in the text it said, “Hearing a sound like a hand slapping a metal table. The boys and girls of his class (Francois) knew it was an explosion somewhere close. Everybody either tried to make jokes to calm the situation or they cried.” This shows that everyone was unsettled/completely terrified by the war.…

A veteran to me is a patriotic, unselfish, brave, and courageous person, who would sacrifice time from their families to serve and protect our nation. As Jeff Miller once said, “The willingness of America’s Veterans to sacrifice for our country has earned them our lasting gratitude.” Veterans from every country have served throughout many wars. They have put their blood, sweat, and effort into doing the right and beneficial thing for their nation. Being a veteran means not only to serve in the military, but it means to have the selflessness and courage to go off to war to ensure the freedom of the nation.…

We owe our life, soul, and happiness to our military Veterans. Anything we have ever known, lived and dreamed in America, has been fought for by our Veterans. I never thought about how much our Veterans suffer, because I did not want to feel the pain tearing at my heart. They risk their lives so we can live ours knowing that a bomb won't be set off in our backyard. Think about it.…
Natural Disaster Most men resorted to deception. In the constantly changing political landscape of the city, gang leaders would often attempt to grab power and influence that was ultimately beyond them, normally by employing deceit and bribery. Sure, many resorted to violence and threats, but Viktor was different. He was purely one dimensional in his tactics. Viktor’s meteoric rise was instead owed to his immense, inescapable ferocity and his willingness to do what other men balked at.…

The opinion of people determines whether the interest group is beneficial or whether the interest group is detrimental because if special interest groups do not have the support from people they will not grow and the group will not gain any power. This is what makes the special interest groups either beneficial or detrimental and when the group is not showing anything that people would like to support that would not give any power to the interest group and if the mass liked what the interest group was doing or supporting then they will support it and when many people all want something made as a law the special interest group supports a candidate that is running for president and pays for his/her campaign and when they win the election they…
The House of Mirth and The Good Soldier have different techniques that engage the reader in the story. Both novels discuss topics such as adultery and manipulation which were highly touchy subjects in their time period. These “scandalize” themes in these two novels holds the reader's attention but, the writing techniques the two authors use make the novel more interesting. The House of Mirth uses a more traditional way of writing while the The Good Soldier uses unordarthox writing style. The House of Mirth is a linear novel with a couple of flashback but its linear nonetheless linear.…
From a young age, my parents impressed on me the values that you work hard for what you want in life: that your word is your bond and you do what you say and keep your promise; that you treat people with respect. They taught and showed me values and morals in their daily life. That is a lesson that I continue to pass along to our son, and we need to pass those lessons on to the many generation to follow. I travelled the world while working hard in the incredible arena of fashion. After living and working in Milan and Paris, I arrived in New York City twenty years ago, and I saw both the joys and the hardships of daily life.…
In “A Soldier’s Declaration” the author, Siegfried Sassoon, says that the public does not have “sufficient imagination” to realize the realities of war. Perhaps in 1917, when this piece was published, this was true. One hundred years ago, the camera was not widely used, neither was film, as it had just been invented. Radio was gaining more popularity, but it is hard to capture war and the suffering that comes with it in audio alone. The newspaper was how most people kept up with the progress of The Great War and they were often censored by the central government, so the public had no idea what the war was like to those in the heat of it.…
