All Angels

The Common Theme Of Tragedy All soldiers endure traumatic experiences that have a similar effect on them for the rest of their lives. The themes of horrors of war and how the young soldiers lives are changed for the worse are both prevalent in both Remarque’s All Quiet on the Western Front and Sassoon’s “Suicide in the Trenches.” The soldiers lost their youth while away in the trenches. While both Remarque and Sassoon exemplify the horrors of war and the theme of the lost generation, Sassoon…

these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.” - Martin Luther King Jr., 1963 In response to discrimination in many parts of the world, the United Nations (1948) created the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), which stated that, “Human Rights are rights inherent to all human beings, whatever our nationality, place of residence, sex, national or ethnic origin, color, religion, language or any other status.” In other words, we are all entitled to human rights and…

Coach of the Year Quinn Snyder | Utah Jazz - The Utah Jazz haven’t made the playoffs since the 2011-12 season, where they got swept by the San Antonio Spurs in the first round. But things have changed, as the 2017 Jazz are young and talented at all positions. Rudy Gobert is a defensive mastermind in the middle, and the addition of Joe Johnson will be key for Utah in close games (sorry Gordon Hayward; you’re clutch, but Joe Johnson is clutch-er). The Jazz were the youngest team in the NBA last…

Mao Zedong leading their troops in World War II.] “Liam can start World War III, a war that will be so great that it can end all wars. He can bring suffering the likes the world has never known, mass disease, mass starvation, mass genocide, all while convincing the world’s people that what he is asking them to do to one another is a just-cause and righteous. “This can all happen or none of it can happen, the future is an unknown at this point, but if Liam is allowed to fall into the wrong…

I chose to do Angels in America because I had heard of it before, and as I was searching through the Tony Award’s for the Best Play’s, looking for something impressive to perform, I saw a familiar name and decided I would give it a go. Originally I wanted to do a piece by Prior, but as I read the play I liked the idea of trying out Roy’s character more, so I changed it.

This season, it is no secret that the Cleveland Cavaliers desperately need help at the backup point guard spot. With no solid backup option behind All-Star Kyrie Irving, he has had to log a lot of minutes. Right now, he is averaging 35.2 minutes per game.

Trout is easily the best defensive player in the game and easily blows away all other outfielders. As his strong point in the game Mike, in all honesty, shows everyone how it’s done. Trout has an insane fielding percentage of .993, that being said he makes a play on a ball hit in his general vicinity about 99.3% of the time whereas the league average is about…

swear in my presence. You respect me, and I 'll respect you. I 'll treat you the age you act, so act as grown up as you want to be treated." If all this seems a little harsh, you also have to be willing to show flexibility if something truly was not their fault or was beyond their control, because they are not kids anymore than they are adults yet. Will all this work? Sometimes. :-) The advice that they are not kids anymore, but not really adults, really hit home. I had to put myself in…

We are all Human Throughout life, humans go through an endless journey called life. And in that life span one must overcome several challenges live throws at you. Since we cannot tell the future, the obstacles that we face might end up changing our whole lives.
