Phantom

Why the fuck did I wear my USNA class ring? My career prospects ruined on the first day onboard CG-61, the USS Monterey. While I was reading Brian Turner’s Phantom Noise, the commanding officer entered through the wardroom’s hatch. He seemed civil at first, almost pleasant. As pleasant as a salty sailor with 20 years at sea could be, that is. While he was examining his new junior officer, me, his eyes locked onto the ring’s sapphire. Immediately vivid, his eyes turned to daggers that aimed…

In “Critical Essay on ‘The Phantom of the Opera’”, author David Kelly debates why Leroux’s book makes a better stage production or movie than a book. While Kelly feels Leroux’s characters lack depth, he advises this depth can be found when the characters are on screen or stage. Although Kelly does acknowledge that Leroux adds character elements he “does not follow through with them” and “the problem is that Leroux’s writing is all elements and no details.” Conversely, Kelly credits Leroux with…

the judges. Her name was Stephanie and she was the Color Guard Caption Head for Phantom Regiment. I looked down, closed my eyes and waited for the music to begin. As a performer, I have been accustomed to auditions and have auditioned for several things over the course of my life, but my audition for Phantom Regiment was something completely different. I knew then, and still know now, that I will one day spin with Phantom Regiment. I knew that at my first audition chances were very slim of even…

Star Wars: The Phantom Menace In 1998, Lucas Film released a teaser poster for their long waited and highly anticipated new movie, Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace.

They each set the stage, and while The Phantom Menace may attempt to be more politically savvy, more “wowing” in action, and more stoic, the opening of A New Hope still trumps it by introducing strong characters, (Clever Princess Leia, bumbling C3PO, and imposing Darth Vader) a clear conflict, and has the superior action in the form of a gunfight. Both films also make use of a wise old sage type character who later dies, with The Phantom Menace killing Qui-Gon Jin and A New Hope depicting…

small--but beautiful. The outside walls were made of gold and decorated with crystals. The entrance was incredible as the doors would be opened by two respectable men welcoming the audience. Long before that, one afternoon, I decided to see “The Phantom of the Opera,”as I was recommended to attend, but never at night. I remember the place so luxurious, beautiful, and deep affection that I felt for that place in one night so much that I wished to own it. That starry night, as I arrived home,…

In addition to using hyperlinks to move within the website, I also used some hyperlinks that are linked to other websites. The news section on the main menu contains news from CBS News. For the “Drones” page I used pictures to show off the DJI Phantom 4, the Parrot AR Drone, and the DJI Inspire 1. The pictures came from the DJI website for the…

trope. Those features carry on in today’s readings of the same work, and, despite our modern bloodthirsty craze for terror, create the horror found in each of the feature frights. It takes exploration of three of those works – The Body Snatcher, The Phantom Coach, and Bleak House – to find which…

Alices progression from childhood into adolescence begins by demonstrating her small attention span by daydreaming . This is shown when her older sister reads to her a novel.

before.” American poet Edgar Allen Poe’s words describe gothic feelings felt by the Phantom and the creature in two well-known works of fiction. A novel receives the genre, gothic, when the piece of literature meets specific requirements. Gothic elements compose and support a novel’s theme in the author’s intended manner.
