    lowers her in her mother’s eyes, but also leads her into trouble with Manly Pointer when she assumes him less intelligent when he actually knows more of the world, because Hulga “sat on her neck in a deep chair, reading. Sometimes she went for walks but she didn't like dogs or cats or birds or flowers or nature or nice young men”…

    ” but somewhere along the line [he] done something wrong and got sent to the penitentiary” (Connor 27) and this act makes him feel compelled to do the things he does. In “Good Country People” the antagonist is Manley Pointer who is a great con-artist and did just that. Manley Pointer is crooked to the core even what he carries with him shows that trait, “[i]t was hollow and contained a pocket flask of whiskey, a pack of cards, and a small blue box with printing on it” (Conner 9) just…

    that she is taking advantage of Manley Pointer, the Bible salesman. When Joy/Hulga and Manley Pointer have their first kiss, Joy/Hulga believes that nothing has changed between them and that everything is “a matter of the mind’s control,” (__). Up to his point in the short story, Joy/Hulga has had control. But when Manley Pointer takes Joy/Hulga to the loft, Pointer takes control. Before things get heated, Joy/Hulga says that she is quite a bit older than Pointer. She does this to prove her…

    attack code after the return address on the stack, then overwriting the return address with an instruction in the normal code or in a system library that will jump control to the stack pointer, which would be pointing to the location just after the return address. The actual command to jump control to the stack pointer does not have to be present in the code, just the equivalent machine code byte…

    another. You’re a perfect Christian, you’re…” (290). This may hint at the idea that Hulga is partly Christian like her mother. This line could also show how naive Hulga is and that she doesn’t understand her beliefs well enough to realize that Manley Pointer was a nihilist similar to Hulga. Manley was a true atheist/nihilist, in comparison to Hulga they are completely different. This leads me to conclude that Hulga has her own beliefs inspired by multiple philosophical ideas such as…

    sparked her interest, since she is interested in sea life and the ocean. In the future, I feel like she would enjoy brainstorming with a peer partner. I also think it would be useful to write down her predictions to revisit after she reads. Using a pointer to keep her place during reading, is a very useful strategy for a reader who likes to “race”. It is easy for a student to get off track when they are rushing through. If the student can focus on keeping their finger directly under the word…

    Although Curry excels in shooting three pointers, Jordan is the better overall basketball player. Many people might argue that Steph is a better 3pt shooter than Jordan, in some cases this is very true. However, Jordan averaged more points per game than Curry. Curry is currently averaging 22.7 points per game he plays. In Michael Jordan’s prime he averaged about 30.1 points per game during the regular season. This shows that Jordan doesn’t need multiple three pointers to have good average…
