What was thought to be a family myth was confirmed by a Lincoln exhibition which uncovered the story of a historical exchange of letters between 11 year old Grace Bedell, and Abraham Lincoln, addressed on October 15, 1860. At the time of Lincoln’s running for office, young Grace Bedell thought it upon herself to advise Lincoln that he would have much more voter appeal if he grew a beard. She supported this cause by suggesting that, “All the ladies like whiskers and they would tease their…

In my opinion, this story is about control. Emily's father controlled her life while he was alive and in turn she controls his by not wanting to release his body so that he could be buried properly. Emily wants to also be in control over Homer so she poisons him. This story is similar to the story "One of These Days" by Garica Marquez because both of these stories kind of revolves around "power" even the townspeople wanted to have power over Emily like the Mayor wanted to have power over the…

dreamland where I have been since 6:30 PM. I've slept for 12 hours and I want to keep sleeping. I want to stay in bed where nothing happens to any extremes. I dreamt of lighthouses and the light it casts out over the clear blue gulf sending a signal of safety to those passing by. I wonder about all the things that are like lighthouses to me. I think of the time Alex gave me the towel when I ran to his car in the downpour and that night laying in his backseat playing music through the broken…

been taking large strides and advancing as well. The very first solar cells where only about 2% efficient. This improved, and in 1961 a series of solar cells were designed to provide electricity to 256 lighthouses off the coast of Japan. The very first implementation was on the Ogami Island Lighthouse in 1966 [4]. The cells were designed to provide constant operation regardless of the harsh conditions present, like the large waves and gusts of wind. They completely replaced the diesel generators…

Savage!” There was no answer” and on (Huxley 267) it shows “The door of the lighthouse was ajar. They pushed it open and walked into a shuttered twilight….just under the crown of the arch dangled a pair of feet”. These two quotes are basically saying that John did have many problems such as his mother’s death and the others who are currently not with him in this dark time when he said he needed space by himself in the lighthouse. He then went to the top and then hung himself which led to the…

Miller compares the ads to the news stories by describing the ads as, "So brightly focused and so dazzlingly insistent, each stands out luminous and sharp in the bewildering murk of factoids like a high-tech lighthouse in a blinding fog" (143). Making the comparison that the ads act as a lighthouse through a fog implies that the ads are guiding the viewer from the boring, dreary and regular world and into the fantastic, bright and euphoric world that they can have once they buy what is being…
