Little Miss Sunshine

Hiroshima by John Hersey is a historical nonfiction book that tells the stories of six survivors of the devastating nuclear bomb dropped on Japan on August 6th, 1945. Each character feels the effects of the bomb directly and has to deal with the changes in their formerly ordinary lives, along with the misery and hysteria, and the mysterious radiation sickness that follows the devastating nuclear explosion. This book was mostly written to dispel derogatory views of the Japanese in America during…

Imagine going back in time, putting yourself in the shoes of the Hiroshima civilians in 1945. It’s a normal day, but suddenly a bright flash passes. You see the people around you disintegrate, disappearing from the world. One second they’re here, and the next, not even a single trace. The only thing that kept you alive was the walls of two buildings. August 6, 1945 is a day that will remain in our hearts forever. There were many places we traveled in Hiroshima, but to me the Peace Park was the…

On August 6, 1945 at 8:15am, an American B-29 bomber plane dropped an atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. The devastation was unlike anything seen before. The city was flattened immediately. 8,000 people were killed as a result of the bomb and another 35,000 were injured. Japan still didn’t surrender. Three days later, another nuclear bomb was dropped by the Americans on the Japanese city of Nagasaki. Afterwards, on August 15, 1945, Japan finally surrendered. World War Two was over.…

In the 1940s, the atomic bomb was undergoing development and in August of 1945, the first non-test atomic bomb was dropped by a U.S. B-29 bomber on the city of Hiroshima in Japan and another was dropped, 3 days later, in Nagasaki. Some justify the attack because it spared the lives of many American and Japanese soldiers that would have been lost in an invasion of Japan, which was the alternative to the bombings. However, the cons outweigh the pros: the bombs caused mass civilian casualties,…

Throughout the clips in the movie lighting is a small little detail that we may notice but not know the meaning of it, also in a black and white movie it can be a little harder to see. As the Finch family goes to the Robinson’s house late night, Atticus, Mr. Finch, gets out of the car as Jem is in the back seat watching, and scout is in the front sound asleep.…

recognizing members at quarters in front of the crew, stopping by their desk to offer a handshake and a thank you or by writing a positive page seven. All of these things are easy and take minimal effort; I must make a conscious effort to do the little things. By doing the easy things well and showing the members I appreciate all of their efforts; we can improve morale at the entire unit. My personal values include, but are not limited to, family, honesty, loyalty, happiness and freedom. All…

next step was for them. Prays to God, to show her what journey to follow, one thing is sure her kids' happiness, and safety comes first. {indent}She did not plan to converge, until Amy, her four-year-old exhibited ornery behaviors. Not like her little girl; Gone was the happy girl, they all know and love. In her stead an angry, stubborn girl; why she even fought with her brother Jason, they never argued. Jenna was beside herself with worry, felt a sudden sense of urgency to lay a plan into…

still a bit of similarities, but mainly because of the main theme of Robin Hood. In the Robin Hood Disney movie, by Walt Disney, animals are used as the story’s characters, but in Robin Hood Prince of Thieves, live people are used. In the cartoon, Little John and Robin Hood were partners throughout the movie, but in the live movie,…

actually turns out to be but I just find it suspicious that she is knocking these classic, very popular tales that Disney makes. The second thing that really jumps out at me is that one paragraph after she bashes the beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid is when she finally gets to her trip to the movies and she states that “even before the title sequence, however, I started to shudder.” At this point, I am just confused. This lady hasn’t even got to the movie and she already has her…
