I see it in sports a lot. In the NFL a dude called Colin Kaepernick started this whole debate when he kneeled during the national anthem. This rose a lot of controversy because a lot of people don’t think that it’s right. It also got too out of hand because people misunderstood what he was doing and it got into a big mess. This I think represents nationalism well because the people who caused a mess really was proud of their nation and had strong thought about that, so they stood up for what the…

Bees are one of the most important insects we have, they help our environment by pollinating and helping plants. They pollinate plants that we need, like corn, tomato, peas, peppers, peach trees, apple trees, onions, and many more plant that we has humans need to live a healthy life. They also made the delicious honey that we all love, with what they take from the plants they make the food for their queen and the honey. Although many people can’t stand bees, they are very helpful to us, but…

One writer was compelled at the suggestion to look up the definition of “hillbilly” in the dictionary. Hillbillies are “dumb-assed Americans who have babies with their siblings {or} pets, and call them names like ‘Mary-Beth’ (Starnes, 2007). What a depressing image that was painted. If people would open their eyes and look deep into this mountainous area they would truly see that many of the stereotypes of today are an old world school of…

The documentary ‘Blackfish’ is produced by Gabriela Cowperthwaite and stars Tilikum the orca. It is based around two water parks in the United States of America – Seaworld and Sealand. ‘Blackfish’ is a documentary that tells the true story about an orca’s life in captivity. Several pieces of emotional footages give examples of how the whales are cruelly treated and kept in poor conditions. It asks the question ‘should whales be kept in captivity?’. ‘Blackfish’ works effectively to persuade…

Catholic God about their approaches on later versions of the apple story, while the Anglican one was having his drink alone, usual Calvados; his approach to the apple issue. - Again! – This time Jehovah jumped furious from his divan, just to get a wild giggle from that big and depressed group of Aztec, Mayan and Incas gods. Nobody…

brought the magic potion, the elixir of trouble, with him everywhere he went. His mere presence seemed to do it. He lived by a different standard. To Brig, drinking and the party life was everything. Denny liked partying too—a lot—but nobody embraced the wild life like Brig. Two years ago, Denny got together with Brig on the north side of the city to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. It was always dangerous to be out drinking with Brig, but drinking with him on St. Patrick’s Day in Chicago was good…

“A hero is someone who had given his or her life to something bigger than oneself” - Joseph Campbell (bigthink.com). In other words it means you do something that changes someone else's life positively. Within these heroes there is sometimes a Heroic Journey. The Heroic Journey is the basic path a hero takes to become a hero. Recently I read The Hobbit and watched the film Moana. These two stories have a hero who goes on a Heroic Journey. The Hobbit when compared to Moana has a better/stronger…

It seems the caveman diet is continuing to grow in popularity. That could leave you wondering what exactly this diet entails. Is it something that you could do and stick with?

The caveman diet is called this because it pushes people to go back to the way things were during that time period. Rather than eating foods that are deemed unhealthy and unnatural, the…

Can we call it a Murphy’s law night? That’s basically what it was. A night where anything that could have gone wrong did. My dog Charlie is a very different kind of dog. She can be very high strung at times. She is a black lab that loves, and I mean would jump off a 10 foot drop just to be able to run. To set the setting of this lovely night my dog put me thru I guess I should mention I used to live in Sonora, Ca.. In Sonora all you have is mountains, multiple lakes and creeks, and wild…
