The song “Keep Your Head Up” is an excellent representation of Ralph’s character since it’s about remaining optimistic and hopeful, even in the hard times, which is what Ralph tries to do. The lyric, “You’ll turn out fine” corresponds to Ralph’s attitude, especially during the beginning of Lord of the Flies when he says, “’This is our island. This is a good island. Until the grownups come to fetch us we’ll have fun’” (Golding 35). Ralph continuously tells the boys that they’ll be rescued and…

2 Dimensional Art The two dimensional art that I observed is called Judith and Her Maidservant with the Head of Holofernes, created between 1623-25. The artist of this painting is Artemisia Gentileschi. This was a large painting that covered over half of the wall. This painting was created by using oil paint. Artists used oil paintings because it dries slowly, the colors are able to blend together, and lastly oil paintings allows the painting to be larger then what it normally would be. The…

percent of the population are affected by this phenomenon. Depending on the person, the symptoms and complexity of it my vary. In the ted talk The Voices in my Head, Eleanor Longden shares her personal experiences of her life being diagnosed with Schizophrenia. During Longden’s first year of college, she first heard a narrative voice in her head that she could hear very clearly.

provided to them. This surprised me because the way I would have thought about the issue is having the rich pay more in order to alleviate some of the burden put on in the marginal areas of Latin America. In the chapter “Keeping a Roof over One 's Head: Improving Access to Safe and Decent Shelters” by Anna Wellenstein & Marianne Fay it gave the example that the poor people in San Salvador paid $72 and in contrast to the rich only paying $29 for water connection (p.100). My opinion is that if…

Today a legend steps down. University of South Carolina head football coach Steve Spurrier called it quits on a storied career. The Head Ball Coach, as he’s known by many, had a great run. He won over 228 games. He’s the winningest coach at both Florida and South Carolina. He took two struggling programs in Duke and South Carolina to new heights. At the age of 70 Coach Spurrier decided it was time to step down. He also did it in the middle of the season which some people including myself…

of boys stranded on an island attempting to work together and the eventual end to their teamwork. Symbols are used throughout to depict unsaid aspects of their time on the island and represent the boys themselves. With the continual use of the pig head on a stick as a symbol, referred to as the Lord of the Flies, Golding implies that without civilization, civility begins to deteriorate. As soon as Jack and the other boys who are hunting kill a sow feeding…

Joshua Lyon is the author of this biography titled Pill Head. It is one of the several books Natalie Varghese had left for me once she had moved out of my home. I promise you though with this book you would never get bored. In the broad subject of drugs, the literature we have read never really just goes out there and blurts it out, but he also talks about his sexuality and the city life in a style and approach that remind me of Mothers and Sons, and the Hours. On the count of my personal…

covering three main topics, why so many bees are disappearing, the history behind the reason, and what can be done to stop the issue. The reason why so many bees are disappearing is due to stress that people put on them. For example, in the article “The Head-Scratching Case of the Vanishing Bees”, Clyde Haberman states, “ There is, too, a possibility that honeybees are simply overworked. From season to season, colonies are routinely trucked around the country to pollinate crops. It just may be,…

I personally feel this is a tremendous step for…
