Cuban Missile Crisis President John F Kennedy
1,589 words
The political world is much like a stew, methinks.
It is a conglomeration of what has been, what is,
and what is to become. Since the dawning of the
atomic age with the World War II invention of
atomic / nuclear war capability, however, this
stew has taken on a whole new taste, a piquancy
that perhaps none of us were -- or ever will be --
truly prepared for in all of its possible
mishmash. No longer were the world wars to be
merely strategies, complete with trenches, tanks,
and troops. Since the...

journalism, is a complex weave of structure,
sight, composition, light, and texture. So there
is no wonder that some photographers must face a
very important decision - staging versus fate.

Act Iii Scene Prince Hamlet
1,439 words
The theme of appearance as opposed to actuality is
illustrated through several main characters in
Shakespeare's play, Hamlet. Many characters in the

actions, these characters display invalid personas
of themselves. Three of the main characters that
demonstrate this theme of fact versus fiction are
