records to support fishery management. Sixty percent of the trawlers in China are distributed in the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea. The Yellow Sea (YS) is a semi-closed area of the Northwest Pacific Ocean with an average depth of 44 m. The East China Sea (ECS) lies over the broad shelf of the Northwest Pacific Ocean with an average depth of 370 m. Trawling for Chinese fishery in the two seas mainly occurs in coastal waters or in seawater at depth to 300 meters. Based on our in situ…
In 2015, a group of New Testament scholars, Ben C. Blackwell, John K. Goodrich, and Jason Maston compiled a published book that presents the historical context of Romans through the literature that was present at the time of the composition of the Roman epistle, namely, the Second Temple Judaism era. Plenty of Bible scholars, such as John Piper, study the Bible by only using canonical Bible. Dr. Blackwell, Dr. Goodrich, and Dr. Maston, on the other hand, provided non-canonical literature to…
A current day conflict that the U.S is involved in is that which is centered in the South China Sea. To give some background and explanation, the South China Sea has all of the makings of a conflict that could with time escalate to being a serious armed confrontation. Essentially, China believes that it has territorial right to the ocean to it 's south, particularly to the billions of barrels of oil, and very large reserves of untapped natural gas which can be extracted underwater. The issue…
When the old man found himself in the fight of his life, he also found himself alone. Facing his challenges detached from any companion, Santiago and his introspection are a vital part of Ernest Hemingway’s Novel, The Old Man and The Sea. One of the greatest writers since William Shakespeare, Hemingway is undoubtedly a valuable part of English literature. Despite being awarded a Nobel and Pulitzer Prize, Hemingway still faced many critics and experienced many hardships. This story is about an…
Ernest Hemingway is one of the most revered and studied American authors, famous the world over for his extensive bibliography of short stories and novels. However, Hemingway was a deeply troubled man, and many of his works are monuments to his struggles with depression. “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” is an ideal example of Hemingway’s nihilistic view of the world: it appears to be a mirror into his very soul. The theme of “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” is decidedly nihilistic: life, human ideas…
being maintained, local state actors have made it increasingly difficult for restoring stability in the region, primarily the aggressive actions of China in the South China Sea. As stated in the U.S. Pacific Command’s Posture Statement, “Chinese coercion, artificial island construction, and militarization in the South China Sea threaten the most fundamental aspect of global prosperity - freedom of navigation.” This aggression has begun to concern many regional governments and illustrates Chinese…
First of all, Bronte depicts Antoinette as a character who loses her sanity and becomes a violent ‘beast’. In Jane Eyre, the first impression of Bertha emerges when Jane hears a “demoniac laugh – low, suppressed and deep” and some moaning from Bertha (Brontë 164). The moaning indicates that Bertha functions more like a wild animal than an ordinary human being. Brontë portrays her like a savage creature instead of a human. Jane also hears “a snarling and snatching sound, almost like a dog…

Imagine yourself, in a small, little town not known by many people from other states; you and your friends enjoying a normal life in this little town, until one rainy day everyone’s home and your younger brother decides to go out in the rain and steer his paper-mache boat in the stream of water leading to the sewers. Seems innocent and safe right? He will be enjoying his rainy day and you will be inside doing your work knowing that he will return safely; but what if I tell you that he doesn’t…
Castaway assessment 1. To critique the film castaway I would say that they do not show enough of what he had to do to survive for the 4 years on the island they showed him catching a few fish and the showed him cracking coconuts, but they never showed him trying to catch any animals or setting any traps that he might find on an island. Also, I would have a little bit more of the time that they were having at home searching for him or at his funeral. They just showed him at the island for the…
