Cider

I would like to share with you the beginning of my experience with volunteering at Shalom East. I will be working in the hospice center and visiting with the patients in their last moments of their life. This is not going to be an easy job for me but when I found out about the opportunity I knew it was something I needed to do. I have a large heart and feel compelled to give what I can to perfect strangers in their time of need. I would want someone to do the same for me. In my Civic…

In the popular mind, valuable nutrition and exercise are respected by society. However, within the past couple of years, some extreme and unhealthy trends have occurred. As a result, the definition of healthy is transformed and begins to misrepresent the textbook facts of nutrition. If we can understand the cause of the altering, we can improve the meaning of nutrition. In fact, I will discuss multiple health movements and rationalize their true health benefits. Within the past century in…

Keats “To Autumn” creates imagery through the use of sounds and alliteration in order to establish a soundscape that reflects and compliments the words fabricating the images. In this sense, the simultaneous and complementary use of a soundscape in conjunction with the imagined images produced by the literal meaning of the words utilizes sight and sound to create a more engaging experience; an example of this is the use of s sounds and m sounds that lead the reader to create the sounds of bees…

Whenever I plant the young larches I'll think that none can plant as you planted; and whenever I split a gad, and whenever I turn the cider-wring, I'll say none could do it like you. If ever I forget your name, let me forget home and Heaven!--But no, no, my love, I never can forget 'ee; for you was a GOOD man, and did good things!" (The Woodlanders, Chapter 48) These lines not only show…

people. After Van Buren took office-succeeding Jackson, it did not take long for Whig supporters to promote Harrison 's campaign. They fueled off of democratic ignorance as a reported claimed that Harrison could be bought off with "a barrel of hard cider," and a "pension of two thousand a year" (Watson,215). This generalist claim upset thousands of frontiersmen who still lived in log cabins and affected other citizens that reminisced on the idea of the frontier who were upset of the frontier’s…

also known as the Apple Tree House. It was built on what is now known as 298 Academy Street. It was constructed in two separate sections. The first section of the house was built back in the 1600s by the Dutch settlers. The property also housed a cider press and apple orchard which helped the house achieve its nickname. Since it was built on a hilltop, the place was used as a lookout and became an unofficial headquarter for military operations during the Revolutionary War. It has been said that…

Their debut album ‘Don’t Need Much‘ is about all the “important” things – drinking cider, getting high in the sun and going skateboarding. For two years ‘Cynics’ was the name for Giles Bidder, back then an 18-year-old living in Brighton. He played one of his first solo shows in July 2009 with Holland’s Tim Vantol. That night, a last minute…

sauce and peanuts for dinner. I wanted to then know how special occasions were celebrated in her family. For birthdays she would get to pick what was for supper that night and they had a chocolate cake for every birthday. On Halloween they had apple cider and powder sugar donuts. For Christmas Santa Claus would bring the tree on Christmas Eve when he brought all the presents, but they would leave their tree up well into the New Year. On New Year’s Day they would always have the traditional…

Bang. One man falls. Bang Bang. Two more fall. Then they all run, as police begin to arrive. How did the U.S. get to that point, where murders occur often and the criminal gets away? The 18th amendment. The only amendment that has ever been repealed. The 1920’s alcohol prohibition was unsuccessful due to a lack of enforcement, citizens disregarded the law, and it led to the rise of organized crime. The idea of a national Prohibition began with a religious movement that led to a…

In the 1800’s, more land was conquered in North America by the United States which led to plantation growth in the South. This led to the demand of more people to work on the expanded fields from the South, so they utilized the triangular trade system to benefit themselves. However, slavery was a foreign and unacceptable practice to the North since they were more industrialized. This incited a political development called abolitionism in the North which impacted the subjugated African Americans…
