Strong Central Government Bill Of Rights
1,237 words
The anti-Federalists were against the ratification
of the constitution. The views of the Federalists
and the anti-Federalists were completely
different. The Federalist and anti-Federalist
papers were battles over problems with the
Constitution. The only reason the anti-Federalists
agreed to help ratify the constitution was because
of the Bill of Rights and without the Bill of
Rights the Constitution would not have been
ratified. Following the American Revolution the
United States was free of Bri...

must be underlined or italicized) are presented in
the debate over to whether or not the American
Revolution produced a Christian nation. Nathan

nation. So did the Revolution produce a Christian
nation? It is my belie...

... ings of storm. Nights I sat at the kitchen
door listening out into the darkness until finally
spring came, and everything transcended. As one by
one the ponds opened, tool the white ice painfully
into their dark beliefs, I began to listen to them
shore-slapping and rock-leaping into the growl of
creeks, and then of course the ocean, far off,
pouring everything, ever and over, from jar to
enormous jar. You'd think it would stop somewhere,
but next it was rocks flicking their silver

Warriors Were Similar Similar In A Few Ways Hector
608 words
Two of the main characters in Homer's The Iliad,
Achilles and Hector, compare very differently in
many ways. Although they were both war heroes,
they came from different sides of the battle and
fought each other under different beliefs. These
two brave warriors fought to the death in Book 22,
where Hector eventually lost to Achilles. Even
though Hector lost the fight, the war still raged
on, even less merciful than before. These two
warriors were similar in a few ways, but mostly

Skilled Listening Active Listening People

In the workplace, it is not how a message is
intended that determines its effect but rather how
it is received. As Robert Bolton states in People
Skills, the distinction between hearing and
listening is important. Hearing refers to the
physiological process of receiving auditory
sensations. Listening is more complex and involves
the interpretation and understanding if those
signals. One can hear a person without ever
listening to him or her. Whether or not one can
actually listen and be listened...

Cuban Missile Crisis 20 Th Century

with a much more critical eye, and evaluate the
cost and benefits of the cold war. Had I lived
through the Cuban missile crisis, I probably would
have said that the whole cold war was a success
because I am still alive. I don t think that I
ever can have the same respect for the situation,
no matter how many accounts I read, or films I
watch. I think that this should be taken into
account when r...

Make Good Caesar Rome

bad traits. Shakespeare gives Julius Caesar a
mixture of qualities ranging from reasonable to
that of a tyrant to arrogantly ambitious and,
sometimes, superstitious in order to portray a
variety of sides to the potential leader of Rome.
Such men (Cassius) are dangerous I fear him not.
Political nobility, thus, is formed with just
reason to threaten Rome, yet at the same time
portraying characteristics not of an antagonist.
When such a character with sporadic influences is
fashioned, conflict ari...

Oliver Cromwell Political Freedom

Oliver Cromwell, a Puritan fundamentalist and

changed the history of England with, perhaps, what
he did not do, rather than what he did do after
the success of the insurrection he led against
Charles. Though rather unsuccessful as a
politician, Cromwell, single-handedly redefining
the art of war and military strategy, proved to be
one of the greatest military geniuses of all time.
Despite the professionally trained forces that

HIV positive individuals have a moral
responsibility to let others know they are HIV
