    The funk is no place to be. A funk can come on when you’ve put on a few extra pounds in the midsection. A funk can make you stinky if you spent the entire weekend cramming for a final and skipped out on a shower. The funk can make you look like an extra in The Walking Dead when you missed a healthy eight hours of sleep. A lot of us have been there and it’s easy to get stuck in the cycle.…

    Life after death was a huge and important aspect of Ancient Egyptian culture. Artifacts and records show the people believed their bodies would be used again; if their heart was lighter than the Feather of Truth, they would be able to continue to the afterlife. Thus their bodies would have to be well preserved. The dead would be dehydrated using natron, then wrapped in linen. The wealthier could afford higher quality care, building elaborate tombs and burying various items to bring to the afterlife.…

    Death of the Ice Man There are many different theories of how the Iceman died. I have decided that I believe that Ötzi was murdered for spiritual reasons and all of the artifacts that were found with him were peace offerings. This makes sense because almost all of his belongings were about ten feet away from him neatly put there. If someone were going through his stuff it wouldn’t be so neatly put there. The reason there is a huge gash between his forefinger and his thumb might be that cutting his hand was part of the ritual.…

    Like all road safety campaigns, Keep the Bromance Alive and Little Bit Dead have the purpose of making Australian roads safer and discouraging unsafe habits. Keep the Bromance Alive encourages positive peer pressure, by showing men encouraging mates to not drink drive, not to speed and encouraging seatbelts. Contrastingly, Little Bit Dead discourages negative behaviour by showing a potential catastrophic outcome of unsafe driving. Unlike Bromance, Little Bit Dead focuses solely on drink driving, rather than the three aspects. The purpose of Bromance is to persuade by taking a humorous stance and making fun of the idea that men are nagging, or a ‘big girl’ if they tell their friends to demonstrate safe behaviour; this shows that it is better…

    After reviewing my persuasive speech over why the University of Oklahoma is the best university in the nation, I would sum up my speech as a little bit of train wreck. Although I made good claims with factual evidence, the amount of stuttering I did, and all the times I was choked up throughout the speech drew my audience’s attention away. From this, I lost my audience’s belief that I was competent of the information I was reiterating to them. At the introduction of my speech I believe I started out fairly strong and gave a good run down of the coming speech.…

    Sky Burial, also known as celestial burial is a ritual commonly practiced in many provinces such as Mongolia and Qinghai, but mainly in Tibet, has been done for a thousand years. It is the way of disposing the body in the most beneficial way, by it being fed to the vultures. They consider the body after death to be empty so there's no harm in disposing it in the most generous way possible. It starts off with the body being untouched for three days then wrapped with white cloth and finally carried to the mountain where it is cut up and finally given to the vultures for feeding.…
