Crane Wilbur

There once was a girl named Beastie. She had been born in a field one spring. No one in the area would ever think that one little, powerful girl would grow up to become the most talented in the history of heroes. Little did she know that so many people would soon look up to her for her strength of becoming a legend. As a child, she had emerged from a golden ball. That golden ball had been her source of power since she was really young. With the ball, she would send all the horrifying, mysterious creatures away from the people of her town, protecting them from all harm. As she grew older, she had become much, much stronger. So strong in fact, she could swing at the ball with her bat and it would hit the side of the universe and come back. Her muscles were as hard as a rock. She could've lifted up the universe if she wanted to. The bat she had carried with her was so heavy, a person who would've tried to pick it up would've broke a bone instantly. Many people of the town that had heard of her, never even saw her. She was a hardworking but mysterious human being who secretly and quietly kept the people out of danger. Hearing the screams of her people one day, Beastie had awoke. Many dangerous creatures had attacked the city. For as strong as she was, many she killed in an instant with a punch as strong as hers. With one mighty swing she had knocked out five in a row. But one gigantic monster was left. Taking out her bat and her golden ball, she tossed the ball up and swung as…

A crane has collapsed, with only minor injuries to workers that could be treated at the company’s nurse’s office. Depending on the level of care, the injuries may make the mishap reportable in that sense, but regardless it should be investigated as a near-miss mishap since employees could have been severely injured or killed. Additionally, there is word that OSHA has been called by an employee complaining that this is an imminent danger situation. Although supervisors, engineers, and I as the…

In “Juggler” by Richard Wilbur, the speaker and the audience witness the gravity-defying performance of the Juggler. When juggling, the Juggler changes the dull atmosphere to a lively one through his momentary triumph against gravity. The speaker observes that although the performance showed temporary victory against gravity, the Juggler made ordinary objects seem special and entertained the audience by inspiring them. The speaker describes the Juggler’s abilities using images of divine power…

OBJECTIVES We aim to determine if draw down of an impoundment at Necedah NWR creates habitat that is more desirable to whooping cranes after hatching colts and if said habitat can also provide better shelter for young colts leading to higher probability of fledging. We will also determine what impacts, if any, this drawdown will have on other avian species such as sandhill cranes and secretive marsh birds which may act as an indicator species in relation to wetland ecosystem quality (Conway…

Have you ever seen the movie adaptation of a book you liked? If you remember it wasn’t like the original story in many ways. Since movies started being made, producers tried to translate popular stories to the big screen. Stories like Washington Irving’s ¨The Legend of Sleepy Hollow¨, ¨The Jilting of Granny Weatherall¨ by Katherine Anne Porter, and Nathaniel Hawthorne’s ¨Rappaccini’s Daughter are all examples of books that were put on a screen. For movie makers, stories by Modern and…

Towards the end in Irving 's narrative, Brom basically admits his guilt of hitting Ichabod Crane with a pumpkin: "Brom Bones, too, who shortly after his rival 's disappearance conducted the blooming Katrina in triumph to the altar, was observed to look exceedingly knowing whenever the story of Ichabod was related" (Irving 38). Brom appears "exceedingly knowing" and wins his prize in Katrina from his main rival in Ichabod. The people of Sleepy Hollow make an extraordinary effort to lie to…
