Franklin D. Roosevelt once said, ‘’ When you get to the end of the rope, tie a knot and hang on.’’ Those words were practically my motivation and expectation during this semester of my first year in college. As a recent graduate from high school I knew I didn’t have all the material I needed to proceed as a college student; however, I wanted to take the advantage of my education. It was a eerie feeling the first weeks of college. Being in this class I expected to grasp the information and…

Once the horse was released and started to pick up its pace, I instinctively pulled the rains to the point where the horse slowed down. My dad noticed how fast I acted and that I was a natural. From then on, I was allowed to ride the horse by…

Studying a problem can be accomplished in two ways – experimental research and observational research, and there are advantages and disadvantages to each. In regards to the speculation concerning what creates a genius (inherent genetic advantages or intense practice at a young age), this paper will discuss the validity behind the nurturing explanation and the creation of an experiment to help prove it. First, there are various pros and cons to the types of research that can be applied.…

punishment, or as it’s better known as the death penalty, as an option within the judicial system has existed for centuries with mentions of such acts stemming all the way back to the bible. The act has had different variations changing throughout the course of time ranging from those as terrible as public centralized hanging or burning to those seemingly better such as lethal injection.

which recognized Portugal's rights to territories it had discovered along the West African coast as well as the enslavement of infidels and non-Christians captured there. So what does this really mean to the explorers who will forever be altering the course of history for the Indigenous peoples? Was the hostile war-like conditions justified?

in cinema with a particular eagerness to experiment. This is reflected by impromptu appearances in his films. For instance, in Rear Window when fixing the clock in the songwriter’s flat. He also experiments by using the rolling camera technique in Rope, the montage of Psycho and the frequent use of the Kuleshov Effect throughout his films, usually used with an extreme close up of the camera into a character’s face, emphasizing the actor’s facial expressions (Peter Wollen, 2004).

When comparing “The Lottery,” and “Trifles,” some may begin to think about the running theme to both of these literature works, which is murder. Shirley Jackson creates a mysterious short story on how a town stones one person to death just for the sake of an old tradition.
