In Norman Maclean’s text, Young Men and Fire, the reader is revealed an emotional and heart-wrenching tale of 13 smokejumpers that lose their lives on a seemingly ordinary day of wildfire fighting.

Maclean says, “A…

cases that have had startling outcomes that result in a court ruling in favor of the plaintiff rather than dismissing a “ridiculous” case altogether. Norman versus Honda of America Manufacturing is a prime example of what is considered to be a bizarre case. The Norman V. Honda of America Manufacturing case involved a young lady named Karen Norman, whom along with a friend, were in her four-door 1991 Honda civic vehicle, in which Karen was in the driver’s seat trying to back her car up to leave…

First sang by the Temptations this song became the first of many Motown songs to declare political protests on the world climate, but for my generation many recognize the song as being soulfully…

As he got older, Colin Dexter took an interest to crossword…

Becoming famous for his witty sense of humor he so boldly displayed in his painting, but when he unveiled the painting entitled “The Problems We All Live With,” many fans and critics were to say at the least “shocked.” Rockwell took a new serious approach with this painted by capturing a second of fiction in one of the many historical events this nation has seen. The painting is of a little…
Milun: A Tale of Love and Loss Milun, transcribed and composed by Marie de France, is a love story that intertwines readers into the tragic sequence of events, drama, and imaginable love within the poem.
