The Angel's Command

Karen Hesse’s Stowaway was a totally self-enveloping novel in the form of a sailor’s diary, about a young boy from Britain who runs away from his family problems. In the hope of returning with all of his problems sorted out. He hides aboard a boat called the Endeavor that will be traveling the world. He is discovered however by the crew mates and his adventure begins. Stowaway is a great book it even interested me as a reader who almost never reads for personal enjoyment. I really like the way that Karen Hesse wrote this book. Rather than a traditional book she writes a diary type of account of what happens in 1768 to 1771 aboard the endeavor. The diary is cool because you can see and feel the emotions of day to day life. You also get a feeling of how he feel about others and how he thinks others feel about him. It’s kind of cool how her writing style takes you back to a different time. Were people weren’t writing to get famous it was so when they got home from their adventure. The family members were able to see the trip through the eyes of the one that took it with very vivid descriptions. The characterization in this book is great, as soon as you start the book there are characters that you can tell that you will like or that you are going to hate. First you will meet Nicholas who’s the perspective that the book is written in. Once he is discovered on board the Endeavor you will meet Mr. Bootie who you probably won’t like he’s not too nice to Nicholas thought the entire…

In my position with the Army Materiel Command, I actually was responsible for several other programs that covered many of the Army’s core functions for communications and signal. One of the Army’s major functions is Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR). Absent the actual purchase of weapons system the second most important function that needs to be performed is controlling those systems via communications. The Army Materiel Command…

possible, I think to myself. I died on my bed, with my wife and children surrounding me. I was a King, an Emperor in fact, since; and I am proud to say, that I ruled an entire Continent, the Continent of Marsa. But back on track here, where... am I exactly? I try to move as fiercely as possible, maybe I'll be able to get out of one situation, but it was to no avail. Tssskkk... Fine, I was hoping to get out of this without having to use my powers but it seems I won't be getting anywhere in that…

EV-516 woke up right on time, the way she always did, at least, the way she always did since the operation. Her eye scanners flickered bright colors back and forth, sending information to her eyes and into her brain. She stood, dressed, and walked out of the boarding house rhythmically, in the same pattern she did everything. Every move that EV made was to the beat of the ticking sound that transmitted to every aspect of her being. It was constant, not even ceasing when she slept. The…

Wolfe, was going to be teaching to the students that day. Due to absences that day in the class, this lesson was taught in front of eighteen students, with ten boys and eight girls. To begin her lesson, Mrs. Wolfe started straight after their morning meeting. All of the students were already situated on the carpet, so she was able to move almost flawlessly from the meeting straight into the lesson about commands. Mrs. Wolfe started out her lesson with the following question: “What is a…

scenarios, power is used differently by whoever is in charge depending on their circumstances as well as their restrictions. Second is the intention of whoever was in charge. Jack from Lord of the Flies wanted to survive no matter the cost; loss of innocence, lives, whatever it may have been. He also had no restrictions and more importantly, he did not care how anyone else viewed him and only looked towards forwarding his own interests as mentioned by his quote to Ralph, “And you shut up! Who…

more information. Hell, who was I kidding the girls trumped Geography every time. At least in South Dakota I would be in good company with some great men-Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt. It took a few minutes to process what I read; but I tried not to dwell on it. I did, however, begin asking questions to see if anyone knew anything about Ellsworth. My initial investigation found that Ellsworth wasn’t so bad. At least there were a lot of colleges filled with young single…
