Native Americans Fur Trade
671 wordsThoughts on the Mountain Man and the Fur Trade Critique This article was somewhat interesting; it was not a very appealing title for the author to have chosen to write about. He talks about the importance of Fur Trade in the 1800 s, even though there are those who say it was not a very important export that required few men I strongly believe that this did play a very big role in history.

Homer Barron Miss Emily
1,159 words... to those angels in coloured church windows- sort of tragic and serene. It gave me the image of someone with a child-like innocence who clearly was in dire need of some help, she sounds very lost. The other thing that grabs me about this description is the use of the word angel which I find ironic considering that we later find out that she keeps a corpse locked away in an upstairs room. Its safe to maybe say that she is an Angel of death. The other character that keeps coming up in this stor...

National Hockey League Point Of View
1,414 wordsDuring the 2002 Winter Olympics, the hockey games were fast-paced, exciting, and full of tension and well-coordinated offensive plays. And as I was watching these games it readily became apparent to me that the reason the players were focusing entirely on their skill was that none of them were approaching the aggressive type of playing they had during the regular NHL season. Crosschecking against the boards was rare; penalties tended to be even rarer, and throughout the entire Olympics there wer...

The Degeneration Of Order In Lord Flies
1,479 words.".. Lord of the Flies is not, to say the least, a simple adventure story of boys on a desert island" (Epstein 204). The elements of Lord of the Flies -- a tropical island, a group of schoolboys without adult supervision, a herd of wild pigs -- may seem to be the elements of a perfect Utopian fantasy. Instead, they are the elements of a nightmare, a Utopia that quickly disintegrates into, first, chaos and then a dictatorship based on fear and ritualized brutality. However, the novel is also not ...

Perfect Person 1 Corinthians
1,153 wordsby David K. Phillips CLARIFIED When one mentions the term 'dating' it can produce, on the ambivalence continuum, feelings ranging from delightful bliss to genuine confusion or even aversion.

In a casual sense, therefore, dating can certainly mean hanging out with the opposite sex for non-romantic purposes. Some of these...
