2016 has been filled with vicious rivalries: Black Lives vs. Blue Lives, Vote Leave vs. Stronger In, Clinton vs. Trump, but none can top the 160-year-old battle which continues to ravage the homeland of Wawa, bagels, and Bruce Springsteen. Not all speak up, but all have an opinion; some even consider this contention to be New Jersey’s own Civil War. Each side is deeply devoted, unwaveringly loyal, prepared to fight for their cause, taking their conviction to the grave. Starting in 1865, this…

The Chosen Affinity: Uprising 1 They all said life would be better here. Trapped in a tiny train with about 6 other people. We were around 15 years old, some older, some younger, three guys and three girls. The train took off yesterday with no known location. My twin brother and I had received a letter in the mail a few weeks prior. Mine came with a one way ticket and a letter my parents had quickly snatched from me and would not allow me to read. After they had fallen asleep however, I snuck…

In this essay, I will demonstrate that there is a strong, undeniable connection between music, magic and imagination in William Shakespeare’s play The Tempest. Also, I will indicate their role in the mentioned literary text and in what way do they affect the main characters, the relationship between them. Imagination, understood as the ability to create new sensations and images in one’s mind, was considered by Pierre Charron to be the most active and stirring faculty of the soul — [imagination…

In the early America when people started to come from the far east to settle for a better life, there were times that weren’t so great. One of the major negatives was slavery, also not many women had the right to their own person they were practically slaves to the men in my opinion. In the book, “An American History Give Me Liberty” by Eric Foner sites in chapter 3 called Creating Anglo-America 1660-1750 some of the important marks of that specific time period. Like in 1676 the Bacon’s…

It was summer, no school and no homework and to top it off a brand new phone. I was going to one of my favorite places to go to the beach. I was going to trying to do some kiteboarding. I was going with one of my best friends of all time, Thomas Bacon. We rented a beach house right on the ocean. We packed up two cars with surfboards and boogie boards galore. We drove for six hours down with me watching movies on my phone. We stopped at Williamsburg to see a friend at William and Mary. The trip…

A counter argument to ‘State v. Black’ would of course be the case of ‘State v. Oliver.’ Yet, this case should not apply to my client nor should it have an effect on the outcome of his case. Other than the fact that both of the husbands in each case disciplined their wives, there are no similarities to be drawn. Yes, both husbands did hit their significant others, but this argument is a weak one, as one husband (Richard Oliver) was far crueler, inflicted major physical damage and perhaps had ill…

No one knows for certain exactly what causes migraines. Currently it is thought a series of small irritations or events build up until the dam bursts and a migraine headache is triggered. What causes migraines, or triggers them, varies from individual to individual. What affects one person won't have the slightest affect on others. Migraine triggers are very personal. The experience of many who suffer from these headaches is that a particular food or mix of foods will tip them over the edge into…

Humans gain ownership of intangible items everyday, so how does that affect a person’s development of self identity? If a person owns something intangible, that person will feel more powerful because ownership of knowledge equates to power. If a person has a lot of knowledge, than that person has a large amount power. For example, in the 1900s people gained ownership of the idea that the Aryan race was the “master race.” People who read “Mein Kamph” by Adolf Hitler gained this knowledge. Since…

wouldn't remember it. One of our many family traditions include inviting the "new guy" to dinner, so continuing with this, he came over after a couple of months. When he arrived, we expected a simple night with some chatter, but were we wrong. We enjoyed bacon wrapped mushrooms on the patio, ate a wonderful dinner, then played wii. Fr. Schroeder instantly became…

Identify the Final Research Project topic. What influenced you to make this choice? In my Final Research on animal’s cruelty, I evaluated all perspective. I choose cruelty to animals to expose the brutality that the pig had to undergo to bring a bacon and pork chops to our table. They tails were cut off with any medication to eliminate aggressive behavior. The hamburgers we eat that came from cattle that stood in tight cages for life until time for slaughter. The fried chicken and the egg that…
