The 100

The causes of the 100 year war was a conflict between England and France. Little things contributed to the war such as control of the English Channel and trade were a few causes of the war. King Henry ll of England, married a noble French woman, and brought more French land under his control. In 1328 Philip died with no heirs. The king of England, Edward lll, was his closest relative, and he would become King of France through his mother, but the French did not want him to become under English…

The song “100 years” is very inspiring. In the song he tells you, “Half time goes by, suddenly you’re wise. Another blink of an eye 67 is gone,” so he is basically saying that life goes by quick and someone shouldn’t waste their time on something stupid. As the song goes on, he keeps repeating “I’m _ _ for a moment.” During the song, he seems as if he’s fine with getting older, he’s wishing for another moment once he gets to 99. Most of his emotions are joyful, but towards the end the music…

the grand stands was a nightmare. Seeing the best athletes from around the state made me feel scared and frightened. Of failure. In that instant, I realized that my fear was going to chase me onto the track and all the way to the end. Starting the 100 metre heat was one of the scariest things I may have ever done in my life. In what seemed like a second, I had crouched down, hear the set sound and gone racing down the track. I knew that I couldn’t look around or I would slow down, so I looked…

The NPR 100 is a list of 100 songs from the twentieth century. To start the process, they asked the people within their NPR community.

From the staff, they gathered around three hundred songs to put on the ballot. NPR then conducted a ballot that allowed listeners to vote. They also gathered a panel of musicians from a…

English 112. The essays are: a summary report, a literary analysis, and an argumentative report. Below I present general descriptions of my writing, along with my review of my strengths and weaknesses. My purpose on writing a summary report “How to Live 100 +” was to present a summary about a video of Dan Beuttner where he stated that social and cultural factors influence longevity. My intent was not to argue his position, but it was about to tell who the main character was and…

If you found $100 on the street, what would you do with it? If I found $100 just sitting on the street, the first thing I 'd do is probably look around for people searching for something, ask around maybe. However, if there was no one around, I 'd do what most people would do and pocket it. One hundred dollars isn 't a ridiculously large amount of money, (maybe to a teenager like me with nothing of necessity to pay for on a regular basis) but I 'd still save it. Ever since I was a kid, I was…

Rothenberg, the director of “The 100”, successfully uses lighting and film techniques to convey the story’s theme, loss of innocence. Loss of innocence plays a major role in developing the character of Bellamy Blake as he changes from a kind brother to a cruel and harsh character. In the novel, Bellamy thinks Sasha is involved in the disappearance of his sister and the author states “The next time blood was [is] spilled in the camp, it was [is] going to be hers” (Morgan 106). The author shows…

I often tend to view people as two different types: one who will drop what they are doing and help someone, or the one to carrying on with life only to care about themselves. As I read through this article, “Does It Make a Difference to Know Poor People?” by Michael Jordan Laskey, I realized that more people should strive to interact with helplessness and those in need. The main character of the article, Mike, was in Lower Manhattan where he and a group of classmates were handing sandwiches…
