position as the daybreak sets in – so the viewers are able to set their eyes on their bloody clothes and weakened bodies. But as the gang has to flee quickly, these appear only in a long shot, from 1:21:24. Flashing cuts indicate the wounds of Clyde at 1:22:16 and Bonnie at 1:23:56. Only when Clyde’s brother is dying, fenced around by the police, zooms the camera closer from a high angle at 1:23:14. Again, the revealing and heinous final scene of Bonnie and Clyde, which depicts the well-known…

Donne declares love a quick draw, a tyrant and a powerful master that can turn even the strongest hearts to glass. In the first stanza, the speaker compares love to the plague and to a powder blast using metaphor and hyperbole. He states: “Who will believe me, if I swear/ That I have had the plague a year?/ Who would not laugh at me, if I should say/ I saw a flash of powder burn a day?” He extends the metaphor to love saying that no one could possibly be in love for an hour, because love can…

international interventions and retaliations of aggression qualify as being a just cause for any war. U.S involvement in the Vietnam has been keenly attributed to its political labors to restrain the proliferation of communism throughout Southeast Asia (Pike, 1996; Walzer, 2001).This shows that the primary cause of the war was for a political interest, which according to the Just War Theory, is unjust. The dispute was between South and North Vietnam. It raged into a war when U.S. first got…

Power Tumbling, Trampoline Gymnastics Two years ago I made one of the best decisions of my life I started to do T&T(Tumbling and Trampoline). I came into this sport a lot later than most people do at the age of 15, but I picked it up rather quickly. I joined a competition tumbling team and competed very well in my first season competing. Starting as a level seven on every event I mobilized as far as I could on the event known as double mini, and this is where I ran into some problems. I…

All around me is water, trees, and lily pads. Oh, and did I mention lily pads, there were more lilypads here than there are people at this lake. It was a hot day, suns out, no clouds, and then I asked if we could move spots. I thought there were no fish in that spot. There we are, my uncle and I on an old 16 foot Lund aluminum boat. It was our second to last day on our fishing trip and there was supposed to be a storm the next day. We knew this was going to probably be our last chance to…

I feel the reasons for my life and development are due to nurture and development being multicontextual. Growing up in Strawberry Plains was simple, only two basic roads exits; Strawplains Pike and Andrew Johnson Highway. Everyone knows you and plus you’re likely related to them. I did not leave Strawplains Pike until I obtained my license at sixteen and started attending church on Broadway. Going to Broadway, exposed me to people who did not understand me and “city living.” Going to Carter can…

year. With each year comes a new journey, but that’s the best part. Seattle is very alive, and there is always something different and new thing to do. I have done a lot in Seattle, I’ve seen the space needle, the troll under the bridge, been inside Pike Place market various times, and much more. Seattle is a very loving city, everyone cares for each other no matter the circumstances. It’s a great place to live and grow up. I know this cause both my parents lived about an hour out of Seattle for…

rather it was set on the one thing I love doing most-- basketball. It was the day I had been waiting for since I signed up; tryouts for Indiana Elite SWISH were finally here. I awoke that day and got dressed in a pair of burgundy, Pike Central basketball gym shorts, a Pike Central t-shirt, black Nike basketball socks and I waited all day until my mom finally told me that it was time to leave. I was more excited than I had ever been before, but my nerves were also taking over. As my mom and I set…
