- Lewis And Clark The Story - 1,038 words
The Lewis and Clark expedition across the present
day United States began May 14, 1804. With the
approval of President Jefferson and the U.S.
Congress, Lewis and Clark gathered an exploration
party of about four dozen men. These men headed
off to discover Western America. On September 1,
1805, they arrived at the Bitterroot Mountains,
near present day Idaho. This began a nightmare
that would not end until they reached modern-day
Weippe. September 1, 1805, the explorers set out
traveling west, heading into rough, seldom
traveled, mountainous country. They stopped at
todays North Fork of the Salmon River, known as
Fish Creek to Lewis and Clark, where they caught
five fish, and were able to kil ...

- Extended Metaphor On Math Class From Hell - 644 words
An Extended Metaphor about why Math Class is Hell
It glared at me, mocking me, jeering at me. It
silently screamed wicked taunts at my nervous
gaze, flawlessly manipulating what made me sweat
the most. It knew how to take advantage of my
fear, my dread of what awaited. Standing high on
the wall, it's demonic face of 12 numbers and
twitching hands tortured me with a snide smile. I
arduously tried to avoid its evil glare and the
way the spherical white face, splashed with
ominous black numbers, laughed almost sadistically
at my suspense. 1:26 PM it shouted at me, 60
seconds until I was devoured by ... HER. This
horrific face shrilled sharply in my ears and
resonated throughout my body. "1:27 P ...

- Character - 401 words
The sun was setting. Far to the east, threatening
black clouds arose from the fumes of pollution
from the several smokestacks towering over the
city. The streets were pocks marked and dented
with the recent shower of acid rain. Hot boiling
steam from the sewers made the temperature of day
much hotter than it really was. Just outside the
borders of the city is a lake covered with muck
and crude oil spills. Death and despair floated
aimlessly on the surface of the unhospitable body
of water. Corpses of dead fish, seagulls... bobbed
just under the rim of the black slime. The black
slime sensing fresh prey, extended it's corrupt
and revolting tendrils farther...until it caught
another unsuspecti ...

... oes in. There is a scream as the tiger devours
Kenny and Charles cringes outside the bathroom.
Soon after that incident Miss Bird comes by to see
what happened to the two boys, and she goes right
into the bathroom and is devoured as well. Charles
then noticed that the tiger was satiated and he
proceeds to use the bathroom, and heads back to
class. The fear in this story may also be a fear
of growing up. Charles sounds to be in about first
grade and is getting used to acting more mature
and being a responsible young man. The fact that
Miss Bird made him say bathroom instead of
basement is something that may have played tricks
on Charles' mind, and maybe the tiger was his fear

- Beowulf - 613 words
Did Beowulf truly obtain the qualities of an epic
hero? In the epic poem Beowulf, Beowulf's
character traits prove to be the depiction of an
epic hero. Beowulf's traits of boastfulness,
bravery and amazing strength are the proof of his
heroism. Beowulf's boastfulness may not be the
most convincing heroic trait, but it certainly was
important to the people of his time. Beowulf
boasted to Unferth to clarify Unferth's
misunderstanding of a swimming event between
Beowulf and Breca, in which they swam out to sea
and remained there for five nights. Beowulf
informed Breca of how they were seperated after
five nights in a storm. He boasted of the nine sea
monsters he slayed while he floated about. B ...

- Coffee Hour Descriptive Essey - 610 words
The clock, left in the family house for more than
a few generations, announced noon. Noon witch as
long as they remembered was used for nothing more
than a sit down with a spouse, close neighbor or a
passer bye, the coffee hour. Cracking beneath a
strongly knitted carpet announced the arrival of a
person while knock on the porch door announced the
arrival of a neighbor. The strong but pleasant
smell of freshly grounded coffee occupied the
house in witch the time has stopped ticking some
fifty to sixty years earlier. Not much has changed
since the last visit; walls are still pale white,
pictures in symmetrical order line the walls, and
stains from childhood pranks still stay as a
testament to ...

- Hiking The Appalacian Trail - 1,193 words
I remember exactly what I felt as I stepped out of
the truck and into the afternoon sunlight. I was
at Lehigh Gap, a drop-off point where the
Appalachian Trail meets highway 873 near
Lehighton. A group of friends and I were being
dropped off to begin our three day journey to
Eckville, another drop-off point southwest of
there. I turned to face the trail and was
surprised to see quite possibly the steepest hill
I had ever seen. As a matter of pure coincidence,
this was the summer of 1999, the year of a
terrible draught. Reservoirs were low and
water-boiling advisories were in place all across
the state. It was also one of the hottest summers
on record. By the time we started hiking at nine

- Wuthering Heights Relationships - 1,568 words
Since the dawn of human thought, man has sought to
define the relationships between all things
surrounding him. He categorizes every living
creature, labels every natural element and names
every phenomenon. He then connects each object to
another with a line and draws the line back to
himself. This way, he feels omnipotent,
confidently grasping the essence of his world in
his hands. Such behavior seems to have peaked in
the nineteenth century when many intellectuals
around the world were pre-occupied with defining
the relationships between man and the society, man
and God, man and nature, and man and man. The
preservation of order intrigued them and the
concept of entropy frightened them. Ma ...

- None - 721 words
Only thirty years after the Piedmontese army
marched into Rome to unite Italy under one
government, the country suddenly found itself on
the brink of the twentieth century and a rapidly
changing world. The twentieth century would mark
the beginning of great changes throughout Europe,
and Italy would not be left untouched. What set
the stage for these changes, though, were the
years just prior to, and directly after 1900. The
decade before 1900 can be thought of in terms of
its government leaders, most notably, Francesco
Crispi. Crispi attempted to lead Italy with
administrative reforms and expansion abroad. The
1890s, however, also marked a time of great
crisis, as riots over the prices of f ...

- Capital Punishment - 1,319 words
It is usually called, simply, the chair and at one
time, was in constant use at New Yorks legendary
Sing Sing Prison. But, no executions have occurred
in New York since 1963, a time when support for
capital punishment was eroding across the country.
The states capital punishment statute was declared
unconstitutional in 1977. In this year, and in
each of the following 17 years, Democratic
governors vetoed legislation to restore the death
penalty. Yet, in 1994, with the coming of
republican Governor George Pataki, an agreement
was quickly reached with legislative leaders on a
law to revive the death penalty for several
categories of murder which included about ten
types of homicides. The signi ...

- The Campaign For North Africa The Battle Of El Alamein - 1,170 words
... h North Africa, code-named Torch. During the
preparations for the battle, the Royal Air Force
established complete air superiority and subjected
Axis forces to intensifying punishment. General
Montgomery planned the battle in three stages: the
break in, the dogfight, and the break out.
Montgomery planned to use diversionary tactics to
indicate that he would attack in the South,
drawing forces away from the strongly held North,
then massing Allied forces in the North. On 23
October, the break-in phase of the battle began
when 1000 British guns opened up along a six mile
front in the North. Twenty minutes later, at
approximately 10 PM local time, the 30 struck the
North, while to the South ...

- Aushwitz - 1,352 words
... The scientifically planned crematoria should
have been able to handle the total project, but
they could not. The whole complex had forty-six
retorts, each with the capacity for three to five
persons. The burning in a retort lasted about half
an hour. It took an hour a day to clean them out.
Thus it was theoretically possible to cremate
about 12,000 corpses in twenty four hours or
4,380,000 a year. But the well-constructed
crematoria fell far behind at a number of camps,
and especially at Auschwitz in 1944. In August the
total cremation reached a peak one day of 24,000,
but still a bottleneck occurred. Camp authorities
needed an economic and fast method of corpse
disposal, so they again ...

- Henry Ford - 2,194 words
"A bore is a fellow who opens his mouth and puts
his feats in it." Henry Ford's parents left
Ireland during the potato famine and settled in
the Detroit area in the 1840s. Henry Ford, born
July 30, 1863, was the first of William and Mary
Ford's six children. He grew up on a prosperous
family farm in what is today Dearborn, Michigan.
Henry enjoyed a childhood typical of the rural
nineteenth century, spending days in a one-room
school and doing farm chores. At an early age, he
showed an interest in mechanical things and a
dislike for farm work. He had an intelligent,
inquisitive nature and was energized by the huge
growth of industry occurring in the Detroit area.
He was also an avid experimen ...

- Capital Punishment - 1,548 words
The issue of capital punishment has been an
ongoing controversy for many centuries. Punishment
by death has been in practice since its first
appearance in Babylonian writings by Hammurabi
dating to 2000 B.C. This form of punishment was
later termed as "capital punishment."
Abolitionists of capital punishment rely on the
eighth amendment for support. Stating that the
execution of an inmate regardless of its manner is
cruel and unusual punishment. Abolitionists also
believe that the punishment is unnecessary and is
not cost effective for the American taxpayers.
Finally, abolitionists depend on the moral issue
of the death penalty to band capital punishment.
Capital punishment advocates depend ...

We pulled into the gravel driveway a punctual half
hour before our expected arrival. Great, I
thought, an extra hour I would be waste at my
grandparents'. Wasn't it good enough that I was
spending the entire weekend here? Did we have to
get there so soon? When you are thirteen, each
minute at your grandparents' is like sitting
through an oration of the entire set of the World
Book Encyclopedia. Climbing out of the car, my
sister and I apathetically walked across the
driveway to the brick sidewalk, past the patch of
towering sunflowers, and around to the back screen
door. As we opened the squeaky door, we passed
from the bright sun of a spring day in
Pennsylvania onto the back porch of Grandp ...
