462 words
Underwater hockey was created in the mid-twentieth
century, by those that found ice, street and field
hockey all to unexciting. It seemed that the only
things left unchallenged in hockey were air and
water. Thus, this game removed the first, and
added the latter. Underwater hockey is held at the
bottom of a swimming pool 2 - 4 meters deep. The 6
players in the water must hold their breath while
playing, but there are 4 substitutes that may be
used freely. Players wear masks, fins, snorkels,

impulse-purchased products. Companies working in
this category need to understand it thoroughly,
and use this knowledge intelligently. In many
countries, agencies are organised by categories.

World War Ii Harley Davidson

For the last century, motorcycles have been a
major influence to international culture. Back in
1885 Gottlieb Daimler created the first
gas-powered motorcycle, with the mindset of
function over form. It was nothing but a wooden
bicycle frame, with a simple four stroke engine
attached (Solomn R. Guggenheim Museum). At that
point motorcycles were very experimental. While in
the beginning they werent much to look at, they
truly proved their usefulness in both World Wars.

Music today is not segregated against by most
people. Not only is it not segregated, it is
joining. One example of that is the relationship
between black rappers and white rockers. The
distinct line of rock and rap is now turning into
a blur. The first point that rap and rock is not
segregated against is that whites buy more rap
music than blacks. That shows that whites do not
discriminate against blacks in music. The second
point that rap and rock is turning into a blur is
that when rap first s...

Reader Through The Book Jake

Hero in Hemingway's writing The Sun Also Rises The
remarkable thing about the book was its liberal
use of dialogue and how Hemingway used it to carry
the reader through the book. There was no plot in
the book in the sense that there was no twists,
intrigue, or goals for any of the characters and
the dialogue was the only thing that moved the
reader through the book. Hemingway used so much
dialogue that it was difficult at times to follow
