The next day…
The end of poverty film was filled with overwhelming information I think many people could benefit from and perhaps see things differently than before. Sure many people are aware that there is poverty around the world but what they do not know is how extreme it can be in certain places. If people in our society would take a chance to see this film they might not take for granted everything they have in life because compared to how people live in Kenya, they definitely live a lavished lifestyle.…

Whitechapel has historically been the heart of the local community – a key hamlet of the East End which has catered for the changing migrant population for generations. A symbol of the East End’s multi-layered history is the Brick Lane Mosque, which has previously served as a church and a synagogue. Within Whitechapel, many of the historic buildings still form part of the rich urban character, including the heritage churches and synagogues, and the historic shop fronts and hospital on the…
murders were found in. The area that the murders were found was in Whitechapel which is in the east end of London. Whitechapel was an area of poverty in London. William Rubinstein writes, “Whitechapel . . . was synonymous with urban poverty and squalor. . . According to Charles Booth's Life and Labour of the People in London, (1891-1903), the 90,000 inhabitants of Whitechapel (out of 900,000 in the East End) did indeed have the highest percentage in poverty of any London district (47 per cent)”…
Tight Ends How have tight ends turned from just another lineman to point scoring machine? One they are bigger than most other plays so they can't be tackled easily, and two they are usually drafted for their catching skills, not their blocking skills. Tight Ends, almost all do some very amazing things, an example of a good tight end is Travis Kelce, who played in college, and the NFL. The position of tight end has changed over time. “As a tight end, I had to learn to block and catch.”(Mccormack,…

Eschatology is the study of what is commonly referred to as the “end times.” This era in history was foretold by the book of Revelation in the New Testament. This field of study can have both good and bad come from it. An example of a good thing from it would be to recognize signs of Christ’s second coming and to let those signs strengthen one’s faith. A bad result that could be pulled from studying Eschatology would be a person attempting to pick a date for when Jesus comes back to retrieve all…

I read Neil Gaiman’s The Ocean at the End of the Lane last year for Literature & Rhetoric II. However, to be honest, I definitely tired of reading Neil Gaiman works once we got to this novel. We had already read The Graveyard Book, a volume of The Sandman comics, and The Wolves in the Walls. It was one Gaiman work too many and, last year, I did not really enjoy it too much. I really loved The Sandman collection that we read and felt like I liked him more in that medium. I also thought that The…
