because the media distorted the escape of Guy Montag. When Montag fled successfully from the government, someone else was used as a scapegoat in place for Montag. “The innocent man stood bewildered…the camera fell upon the victim as the Hound….an announcer on the dark screen said, “The search is over, Montag is dead; a crime against society has been avenged”(Bradbury 142). “They didn’t show the man’s face in focus. Did you notice? Even your best friends couldn’t tell if it was you. They…

The Harvest Moon Festival is an Asian holiday that celebrates the union of families and friends while observing the full moon and giving thanks for the harvest. The Asian American Student Association and the Vietnamese American Student Association observe this day and created a festival here, at Oklahoma State University. I enjoyed the festival, even though the festival did get a bit disorganized, you could still tell that the organizations and the audience all had a fun time regardless of the…

“Fate of the Sons of Usnach”, by Lady Gregory, was written for the people of Ireland. Lady Gregory took it upon herself to write the Cuchulain stories as the people of Ireland knew it and not how the scholars of the time would write it. Her rewriting of the Deirdre story may have been for the people, but it was not without its political motives. At this point in time there was a need for the Revival of the Irish people and Lady Gregory along with W.B. Yeats wanted to unite the people of Ireland…

I attended the opening night of Much Ado About Nothing on September 22nd in the Russell H. Miller Theatre. I saw posters for the play hanging in Ivan Wilson Fine Arts Center, Cherry Hall, and outside the theatre. Upon entering, I was given a program with the exposition, characters, and actors’ names. As I walked to my seat, the lights were on, the set was onstage, and “folksy harp music” was playing, or as a classmate described it “Italian bistro music.” The set gave a “Greek” feel with cream…

Fahrenheit 451 is a futuristic novel about a technologically advanced dystopian society, written by Ray Bradbury in 1953. Bradbury depicts a society that is completely content with the suppression of alternative knowledge and learning. The novel reveals that nobody has meaningful conversations, reads books, or explores nature. Instead they are filled with “noise” from televisions that are as large as house walls, radio broadcasts through “seashell” earbuds, or repetitive commercials on…

taken showed cocaine, marijuana and Xanax in Samman, but the hospital disposed of the blood sample before the medical examiner could perform the more sophisticated toxicology report, Mallak said. A toxicology report for Samman’s roommate, MMA ring announcer Troy Kirkingburg, showed heroin, cocaine and alcohol, according to Mallak, who said it’s reasonable to assume the two men were using the same drugs. Daniel Valverde, one of Samman’s trainers, said he was stunned in part because Samman was…

Narrative Essay It was the Tuesday night before my 14th birthday, at the Greenville Track Club summer all-comers meet, that I first felt the pain of running. Even though I hadn’t trained at all beforehand, I jumped in one of the mile heats anyways. The first two laps went without much trouble, and I was feeling good. I have been told that the first lap of a mile race is run off of nervous energy, and the second lap is run off of the momentum of the first, but the third lap is when the race…

relevant. It needs to be clear that Montag did not kill Beatty for revenge. Beatty’s death was because he was ignorant and did not choose his last words wisely. “And then, after a time of the men sitting around the fire, their faces expressionless, and announcer on the dark screen said, ‘The search is over, Montag is dead; a crime against has been avenged “’ (F451 70). In Montag’s society, this is what should be done. It’s also very ignorant. Everybody in that society believes what he/she told…

great chance to end the game. So the Brock got set and began his penalty shot, first he shot full speed to the left side of the net, faked a shot which fool the goalie then did a spin-O-Rama and tucked the puck into the net. Next, I remember the announcer screaming “HE'S DONE IT BROCK BOESER HAS WON THE STANLEY CUP FOR THE VANCOUVER SUN DEMONS!” As the whole team tackled Brock as we celebrated our win, I couldn't believe it. We were Stanley…
