I am the lawyer defending Sir Walter Raleigh in this case. He has been charged with treason. The story is that Sir Walter Raleigh brought his daughter, brother and wife to an unestablished place that is soon to be called Roanoke. There were a lot of storms and things, so they couldn’t establish it, so they left. Sir Walter came back, except this time, he didn’t bring his brother along. He got there and established it with his wife and daughter, but there was trouble. So, Sir Walter went to…

It is an isolated volcanic island located in Polynesia whose native name is Rapa Nui. This island is a prime example of this type of archeological controversy.

Vivian Winters is the kind of person you find yourself unable to resent. She’s tall, pretty, and sugar-sweet. She’s also whip-smart and business savvy, and a blog she started in secret her freshman year has morphed into a business making her thousands a month – it’s exactly the sort of success you’d begrudge a person less likable than her, though I doubt she’d have found it, had she been less personable. Obviously, she’s not a flawless human, but she’s a thoroughly good person. Having lived with…

The breathtaking row of an aligned set of flowers to form the Lei is one of the prime connections to the base of the hawaiian culture by contributing to the ancient craft itself. A more well-known phenomenon that had one of its origins among the islands of Hawaii and is still dwelled upon to this day is surfing. Surfing is a vibrant water sport that had one of its birthplaces among the Hawaiian islands of the…

Have you ever wondered what if someone in your life disappeared? Have you wondered if you leave the room, will the people in that room still be there when you come back? If you leave someone alone, will they still be there when you get back? For the colonists of Roanoke this was a reality as they disappeared without a trace. No one knows where they went and it’s up to the scientists of today to speculate. The colony of Roanoke may have assimilated into or captured by the native indian tribe,…

The volcano rises about 13,680 ft above sea level. It is obviously very hot near the volcano because it has magma in it that is about…
