that we would need to construct the car. These materials included one mousetrap, cardboard pieces, six balloons, four eye hooks, 2 smooth pens, string, and four small records. However, there were a few steps that had to be taken before connecting all of the materials together. The pens had to be stripped to be made hollow. We pulled the front and back out of the pen to get a hollow cylinder. Then, we cut the balloons in order to apply them to the wheels. We cut the top and bottom of the balloons…
As well, the reader sees a similar response of concealed fury from Sister Aloysius when she notices that Father Flynn uses a ballpoint pen. Earlier on in the play the reader is informed of Sister Aloysius’ hatred for ballpoint pens, and such is evidently displayed with her tone when she mentions Father Flynn’s use of ballpoint pens. By associating ballpoint pens to Father Flynn, Sister Aloysius naturally develops negative feelings for Father Flynn. In addition, Father Flynn has an extremely…

Mid-Sweep The Clean House brings new meaning to naturalist works, drawing in comedy in a way both familiar and foreign to any reader. Taking place in a time potentially not to far from that of now, reflecting on current events or that of those very close in time proximity. Though no location is really known, a Connecticut-esque vibe is expected in a place residing some place between the city and sea. The cast is upperclass for the most part other than Matilde, who is obviously of a lower…
There are many similarities and differences between the two prominent far-right parties in France and the United Kingdom. Immigration reform, Euroscepticism, long-term leadership, and dramatic recent European Parliamentary election success are the most significant ties between the two, and foreign relations, success in local elections, election structure, and historical background being the most significant differences.
