Essay About Your Life Story
Crafting an essay about one's life story may seem like a straightforward task, as who knows your
life better than you? However, delving into the intricacies of personal experiences, emotions, and
reflections can be an incredibly challenging endeavor. The difficulty lies not only in the
chronological organization of events but also in the introspective analysis required to convey the
deeper meaning behind those experiences.
Navigating through the vast landscape of memories, one must carefully select the events that
shaped their identity, influenced their perspectives, and contributed to personal growth.
Unraveling the threads of one's life story demands a delicate balance between candor and
discretion. The challenge is not only to share significant milestones but also to articulate the
emotions, lessons learned, and transformations experienced along the way.
Moreover, the process can be emotionally taxing. Revisiting past triumphs, failures, and
moments of vulnerability requires a level of introspection that can be both cathartic and
unsettling. Striking the right tone в Ђ“ neither too boastful nor overly self-deprecating в Ђ“ adds
an additional layer of complexity to the writing process.
Crafting a compelling narrative goes beyond mere chronology; it involves weaving a tapestry of
experiences into a coherent and engaging storyline. The challenge is to captivate the reader,
allowing them to vicariously experience the highs and lows of the author's journey while
imparting universal truths and relatable insights.
In the end, an essay about one's life story is a nuanced and multifaceted undertaking that
demands not only a command of language but also a deep understanding of oneself. It is an
exercise in vulnerability, introspection, and storytelling prowess that requires finesse to strike the
right chord with the audience.
For those seeking assistance in articulating their life stories or any other narrative, there are
platforms like HelpWriting.net where expert writers can provide tailored essays that resonate
with personal experiences and perspectives. Such services offer a valuable resource for
individuals looking to transform their stories into eloquent and compelling essays without the
challenges and emotional labor associated with self-disclosure.

Monster Culture In J. Cohen s Seven Theses
When people think about monsters, they usually assume they could be defeated
forever, and the good will resume directly after the monster s demise. However, as J.J.
Cohen argues in Monster Culture (Seven Theses), the monster always escapes from
being ceaselessly spurned. Form the footprints of the yeti across Tibetan snow; to the
bones of the giant stranded on a rocky cliff, the monster does and will remain.
Additionally, no matter how many times King Arthur killed the ogre of Mount Saint
Michael, the monster reappeared in another heroic chronicle during the Middle Ages,
proving once more that no matter how many deaths monsters endure, no matter how
many attempts it took to destroy the monster, they return with additional force
(Cohen 5). Monsters... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Cohen writes that one function of the monster is to escape. To escape means not to
be seen; it means to be resurrected by new storytellers in new eras. Likewise,
monsters equal human fear, for fear cannot be physically conquered or literally killed
it will persist for eternity. Applying Cohen s point to Dracula shows that anything the
monster wrecks havoc upon, the material remains but the monster itself turns
irrelevant and vanishes. However, it vanishes only to reappear once again. As
Dracula and various vampiric stories relate, the undead returns in slightly different
clothing, each time to be read against contemporary social movements or a specific,
determining event, (Cohen 5). Vampiric figures are found worldwide, from the
ancient Egyptian deserts to modern Hollywood, each reappearance and its analysis
are still bound in a double act of construction and reconstitution. Vampires in ancient
Egypt differ from the modern vampires constructed in Hollywood: modern vampires

ideas of vampire structures and the like. Because of this occurring theme dealt with

Essay on Chapter Five Forensic Science
January 24th, 2014 Forensic Science/ Mod 3
Chapter 5 Test
True or False:
1) Pollen is an example of trace evidence.
Answer: True
2) Through microscopic examination of pollen or spores, it is possible to identify a
specific plant that produced that pollen or pore.
Answer: False
3) All Pollen Spores are produced continuously throughout the year.
Answer: False
4) With the exception of bacterial endospores, pollen spores are reproductive
structures.
Answer: True
5) Spores are produced only by fungi.
Answer: False
6) Flowering plants or angiosperms are the only plants that produce pollen.
Answer: False
7) Pollen Spore identification can provide important trace evidence in solving crimes
dues to their ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Answer: Animal pollinated plants are strong, which make them easier to be found
during evidence collection but not a plentiful as wind pollen. Wind dispersed
pollen produces large amounts of pollen, which makes it easier to be found in
forensic science during evidence collection, but it s harder to direct find a suspect
with this type of pollen. Water dispersed pollen absolutely has to stay in water or it
will degenerate. So this type of pollen doesn t exactly help in forensic science unless
a victim was drowned.
17)Describe how pollen can be used to determine if a crime occurred in the city or in
the country or during the day or night.
Answer: Pollen can be used to determine if a crime occurred in the city or in the
country or during the day or night because country city conditions are different. The
air is more polluted in the city than in the country, which can affect plant cycles. Also,
the city has a lot more sidewalks other pavements, shaded areas and not very much
fertile soil for plants to even grow. This majorly limits the types and survival of plants
in that environment. Plants mostly flower in the daytime opposed to the night time
because there is sun only in the daytime. This means that there is more pollen in the
air during the

Internal And External And Internal Stakeholders
Stakeholders are defined as those who have the power to influence the outcome of the
problem at hand and have a demonstrated investment in doing so (Collaborative
Justice, n.d). Some of the external and internal Stakeholders in our corrections are:
Police Agencies: If the local police decide to conduct a large sweep of offenders
who have warrants or make mass arrests of people involved in the drug trade, their
pre trial facilities can expect a large night of intakes, many of whom may be under
the influence or detoxing (Horgan , 2012). Our counts are reliant on the number of
arrests that the police make and our medical staffs often are required to deal with a
sick population (Horgan , 2012).
Prosecutors: When the local District Attorney or ... Show more content on

The US Supreme Court recently ruled that strip searches may be allowed even
without probable cause which could make the correction officers jobs safer
(Horgan , 2012). In severe cases of overcrowding, courts may require that offenders
be released to ensure that the living conditions pass constitutional muster (Horgan ,
2012). In these cases (most recently seen on a large scale in California), decisions
must be made about which inmates are released (Horgan , 2012).
Inmate Advocacy Groups: There are numerous organizations that work to ensure that
those who are incarcerated are treated humanely. They will frequently make inquiries
of medical care, overcrowding, and safety issues (Horgan , 2012). They react to
offender complaints which may or may not have merit. This causes the local Sheriff s
or Department of Corrections to respond to these complaints (Horgan , 2012).
Correctional stuff: correctional stuff plays a major role in what goes in and out of
the facilities. Correctional security officers for example are supposed to be monitor
every single thing that enters the premises to avoid drugs getting to inmates.
Correctional officers are also to be ethically concerned with how they relate to
inmates, it s unhealthy for an officer to supply inmates with illegal

Magnet Therapy Magnotherapy
This article is about a 9 month old baby wearing a homeopathic magnetic hematite
healing bracelet, which causes the baby to suffer from lead poisoning. It is a
handmade bracelet sold at a local fair, and the parents of that baby bought it and
placed it occasionally on him/her. The practitioners of magnet therapy or
Magnotherapy assumed that wearing a magnet could expand bloodstream to
individual s fundamental tissues and restore people bodies. Moreover, the
practitioners of magnet therapy are lack of knowledge, and the baby parent is
careless. As a result, the baby now is at higher risk of losing his/her life. The baby
parents should have researched on this bracelet before they bought it. They would
have known the negative side

The Rise And Rise Of Religion During The Axial Age Essay
The Axial Age (for purposes of this paper, and in our reading) span from 800 BC
until 600 AD, and saw the rise and fall of empires, the invention of coinage and
markets, and the birth of countless philosophical and religious schools of thought.
From studying this innovative and tumultuous time period, one may come to several
conclusions on how material gain and spiritual thoughtmay be closely linked. Here,
the pursuit of profit became the pursuit of social good ; the lines between civic and
marketable gain became blurred, forever changing the attitudes of peasants and the
rich alike. The Axial Age was a crucial period in our history in which leaders learned
how best to manipulate their populace, philosophical thought took root in the rational
ratios of the cosmos, and marketeconomy became not only a medium in which to
acquire that which one needs to survive, but the bedrock upon which our society is
built. I plan to support the ideathat coinage and the rise of religion during the Axial
Age is supported by explaining the following concepts from our reading: that the
calculation of debts, market economics, and a fundamentally different system of
trading allowed a space for new philosophical thought to emerge, that the pursuit of
profit became synonymous with the pursuit of personal betterment, that governments
realized it was crucial to suppress the total economic gains of its citizens, and that
religion was in part founded to placate the poor, listless masses. Let us

Media Simply Reflects and Reinforces Existing Social Values There is a notion held
by many people that the media has the power to affect our beliefs, attitudes, values
and behaviours either directly or indirectly. Many sociologists believe that the media
could be extremely powerful and influential because of their technology, economics,
and because of the sheer scale of operations. There has been a tremendous amount of
research done into the possible short and long term effects of the media on society but
very little has been proved either way. Early research often stressed the construction
of the audience and made assumptions about the impact on the public. This includes
the hypodermic effect... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This theory has since been discredited for being too simplistic and narrow in its
approach. It does not take into account for other variables such as the fact that the
tests were done on small groups in unnatural surroundings, and the personality of
those tested. This approach would appear to make no allowance for the fact that as
human beings we are active in how we try to make sense of the world. A
contrasting model of behaviourism is the audience selection approach. This
approach sees the media as having an active audience rather than the passive one
portrayed by the behaviourist view. This theory proposes that the audience choose
what they want to read/hear/see, based on their own attitudes, values and beliefs.
For example television programmes could be used as an escape from loneliness or
as a central leisure interest. Basically this approach implies that the messages have
meaning to the individual or group. David Morelys 1980 study was seen by some
sociologists as an important step forward in studying media effects as it took account
for meaning rather than suggesting that we are merely receptors for what we see/read
/hear. Morley interviewed 29 different groups of people including apprentice
electricians, sociology students and management trainees and asked then for their
views on a well known television programme at the

Integration of Women into the Armed Forces Essay
Today s military includes women who train at boot camps, serve on warships and fly
combat planes. Women currently represent fifteen percent of military personnel, and
their presence is increasing among new recruits, up twenty five percent in the A ir
Force. Among officers and enlisted personnel, fifty five percent, or 107, 733 women
report some form of sexual harassment. Recent accusations of sexual misconduct

The Army examination of the drill sergeant selection sys tem found it did not
consider a candidate s maturity or complete a thorough background check. There
was no close investigation of instances where drill sergeants had beaten their wives,
which was a particular problem with some of the accused at the Aberd een Proving
Ground. The military s position is that the problems of sexual harassment int eh
military can be attributed to a lack of leadership, detailed in two army investigations
(Barry and Thomas 49; Schitt A1, A19).
Opponents of the military s lack fo leadership reasoning believe the problems lie in
how the military environment facilitates sexual harassment, in addition to making it
difficult for women to resist or report instances of sexual advanes. They fee l the
creed of drill sergeants, the power of the military structure, and the fat that military
women can not just walk away from their jobs contributes to drill sergeants having
powers over women that result in sexual harassment. These issues are explain ed by
civilian psychiatrist Major Elsbeth Ritchie in testimony at the court martial of a drill
sergeant from the Aberdeen Proving Grounds. Ritchie explains that fear of sexual
harassment in the military is elevated due to a drill sergeant creed of I am Mother, I
am Father, and God to recruits (qtd. Sciolino, pg. A14). Furthermore, the military

Lawn Bowling History
The history of bowling goes way back to the 3200BC when Sir Flinders Petrie

A Life Of Balancing School And Business Essay
A Life of Balancing School and Business
With the vogue around with startups, entrepreneurship is not a post educational
phenomenon anymore. The world has shown how young people whilst studying, can
triumph in creating great companies. But, how young of a student are we talking
about? You would think college , but no; today we are to look at a high school
student who dreamt enough to do enough.
Ahmed Fahad is a high school senior who resides in Dhaka. His dreams are big and
his actions bigger. In an interview Fahad tells us the story of his short
entrepreneurial journey with great impact on his personal life, family, friends and
the startup scene of Bangladesh. Fahad s self employing afflatus started young;
according to him working for a company or under another person was never a
choice. Hence, from that very muse of self building, he co founded a Carpooling
service called Dhaka Rides, in September 2015. Let s find out how.
A Few Years up the Road
While studying in 8th grade, Fahad started working in a web development
company called Hackhouse, based in Dhaka. During his working period there, a
project called Jaben was landed by Hackhouse founder and CEO Fahim Saleh. Jaben
was a project that serviced in facilitating regular CNG Auto passengers in booking
their ride and simplifying the process. The project failed to reach its potential due to
the complexity in managing unwilling CNG drivers. However, this gave Fahad a shot
of insight and an inspiration to create something

Criticism of Organized Religion in Little Boy Lost and Little Boy Found
Organized religion and its adversity to the natural world is a topic that William
Blake addresses quite frequently in his writings. In Little Boy Lost, from Songs of
Innocence, Blake presents a young child, representing the fledgling mind, getting
lost in the dark forest of the material world. The illustration at the top of the page
shows the little boy being led by a light or spirit of some kind, the vapour that Blake
later speaks of. The boy cries out to his father, not his biological father, but the priest
that has been guiding him on his education of the world thus far. The priest is
moving too fast for the boy and leaves him behind to wander ... Show more content

for Blake s attack on religion s ideas of hierarchy and condemnation of rational
thought. The next stanza describes the boy asking God, indicated by the capitalized
Father, how he could love him or another human more than a little bird picking up
crumbs. The boy states that he loves God in and as much as a little bird. This echoes
the naturalist ideas supported in the aforementioned poems. Blake seems to be saying
that the proper way to worship and commune with God is by loving all natural beings,
human and non human. The priest, a symbol of organized religion that Blake so
sharply critiques, overhears what the boy is saying and is infuriated by the idea that
a person could worship God through nature, without ritual, politics, or human
involvement, and that the boy dares use his mind to question what he has been
taught. The priest makes the boy a martyr, preaching from his high pedestal of
pomposity, and burns the boy, despite the cries of his family. The boy s curiosity and
natural thinking have been squelched, and his imagination bound in iron chains.
Blake closes the poem by asking if such
Criticism of Organized Religion in Little Boy Lost and Little Boy Found
Organized religion and its adversity to the natural world is a topic that William
Blake addresses quite frequently in his writings. In Little Boy Lost, from Songs of
Innocence, Blake presents a young child, representing the fledgling mind, getting
lost in the dark forest of the material world. The illustration at the top of the page
shows the little boy being led by a light or spirit of some kind, the vapour that Blake
later speaks of. The boy cries out to his father, not his biological father, but the priest
that has been guiding him on his education of the world thus far. The priest is
moving too fast for the boy and leaves him behind to wander ... Show more content

Reflection Of Journalism And Writing
I know that the Master of Science program at Columbia will fit my needs as a
student and as a budding professional. Journalism and writing have not been lifelong
loves of mine, and throughout high school I was a math and science student. I took
an introductory journalism course as a senior in high school, and I quickly learned
that journalismis more than writing about yourself and topics you like. Even with
the light requirements of the class, I got my first taste of the process of writing a
story. When I arrived to campus, I decided to apply to the journalism program in
hopes of simply becoming a better writer, regardless of what I would end up
studying. Nearly three years later, I am thankful that I decided to take the first
steps toward becoming a better writer. The undergraduate journalism classes I took
piqued my interest in the field, and the potential graduate courses at Columbia will
culminate my learning experience. As an undergraduate, I was particularly
influenced by a class I took during the 2016 election. The class was described as a
seminar discussion on recent election news, but it turned out to be something
entirely different. I soon found out that the class was going to be responsible for
creating and maintaining a new website similar to Politifact. Each student was
assigned a local or state senate race and a national race to follow and fact check.
This task, while interesting, seemed daunting at first. The local race seemed too

Martin Luther Letter Of Reflection
A Letter of Reflection of the Improper Practices of the Church by Martin Luther
Martin Luther was a German monk, theologian, university professor, Father of
Protestantism and church reformer whose ideas influenced the Protestant Reform,
and changed the course of Western Civilization. Luther did not like the immoral
conduct that was exhibited in the Church, so he composed the Ninety Five Thesis
which sparked a theological dispute that would result in the Reformation and the birth
of the Lutheran. http://www.educationalwriting.net/resource_center/Thesis/Topics
/Summary_of_95_Thesis_Topic.htm
Since Martin Luther could not express his feelings about the immoral conduct and
hierarchies of the Church in public, he decided to write a letter. The Ninety Five
Thesis on the power of indulgences were widely considered as the primary example
of the Protestant Reform. Martin Luther used the Thesis to talk about how he was
unhappy with the way the church used self indulgences for the churches own good.
Martin Luther s Thesis went against the teachings of the Church on the reality of

The Importance Of Living With Crohn s Disease
Growing up with Crohn s disease, it was very important for me to live a healthy
lifestyle. With Crohn s disease, often the small intestine is inflamed, making it
hard to digest and absorb nutrients from food. The lack of nutrients can lead to
malnutrition for people with Crohn s disease. Which meant it was really easy for
me to lose weight and muscle tone making me weak and lethargic. This made it
really important for me to eat healthily. I guess you could say I was kind of forced
into a healthy lifestyle at a young age, so it became a routine for me, a routine I
think would benefit other people as well. I always start my morning out with a
carnation instant breakfast shake. it gives me the calcium and other key nutrients that

Dante s Argumentative Essay
For three years past, trade had been getting worse and worse, and the price of
provisions higher and higher. This disparity between the amount of the earnings of
the working classes and the price of their food, occasioned, in more cases than could
well be imagined, disease and death. Whole families went through a gradual
starvation. They only wanted a Dante to record their sufferings. And yet even his
words would fall short of the awful truth; they could only present an outline of the
tremendous facts of the destitution that surrounded thousands upon thousands in the
terrible years 1839, 1840, and 1841. Even philanthropists who had studied the subject,
were forced to own themselves perplexed in their endeavour to ascertain the real
causes of the misery; the whole matter was of so complicated a nature, that it became
next to impossible to understand it thoroughly.... Show more content on

The indigence and sufferings of the operatives induced a suspicion in the minds of
many of them, that their legislators, their magistrates, their employers, and even the

league for their prostration and enthralment. The most deplorable and enduring evil
that arose out of the period of commercial depression to which I refer, was this
feeling of alienation between the different classes of society. It is so impossible to

Japan Invades China (1931-37)
Japan invades China (1931 37)
Japan s main objectives of invading China in 1931 were to destroy communism and
poses control over neighboring areas on the Asian continent. It was believed such a
control was necessary to be able to issue possible military threats and inquire the
natural resources needed to insure Japan s economic independence. By defeating
Russia in the Russo Japanese War of 1904 1905, Japan acquired possession of
Russia s Liaodong Peninsula Leasehold, which she renamed the Kwantung Leased
Territory, and the South Manchurian Railroad (BJorge, 2011). After Korea was
captured in 1910, Manchuria was filled with mineral wealth, gorgeous farmland, and

On August 11, Jiang Jieshi moved 80,000 men into Shanghai. China tried to air
force bomb the Japanese warships, but ended up missing and killing hundreds of
civilians in Shanghai. At the end of August the Chinese forces tried to fight and
attack the Japanese in Shanghai, but were unsuccessful and turned back to the
defensive side in September and October. The Chinese lost 250,000 soldiers
compared to 40,000 Japanese soldiers. In November, thanks to French priest
Jacquinot de Bessage, some Chinese civilians were given a place to live after losing
their home. (Beck, 2007)
The Shanxi capital Taiyuan fell on November 9. In late September, the Communists

destroyed their equipment and committed suicide. (Beck, 2007)
The Japanese broke through enemy lines in Shanghai and Chinese began
withdrawing toward Nanjing on November 11. Jiang felt the world was on his side,
even though the League of Nations did not take any action, and the signing of the
non aggression pact with the Soviet Union had no impact. But Japan was well on

My Overall Impression Of The Book Floating City Is That
My overall impression of the book Floating City is that it gives a good in depth
analysis of the organized crime economy in New York City. I enjoyed the book
because it was credible, and very informative. The author, Sudhir Venkatesh is a
great sociologist who is not afraid to go into the field and put himself in potentially
dangerous situations for his research. Although it took him a long time to collect his
data, Vankatesh persevered and wrote a great book. The topics covered in this book
mirror those brought up in lecture very well. Crime, gentrification, urbanization, race
and class all play big roles within the underground economyof New York City.

Contrary to those beliefs, not all criminals are deviant (Davidson, 2017). Those
whom forge illegal immigrating documents to be able to create better lives for
people living in third world countries may be breaking the law, however they are
doing what many would consider the right moral decision. Also, crimes such as
sex trafficking and drug selling are also illegal, however there is such a need for
these addictions in society, that more and more people are choosing these illegal
careers, regardless of the social stigma they hold (Williams, 2010). Throughout the
book, one of the drug dealers Vankatesh spends a lot of time with, Shine, often says
that the reason he sells drugs is because of consumer supply and demand
(Vankatesh, 2013). He sells drugs because he knows that regardless if he sells
them or not, the drug addicts will get their product one way or another, so he
might as well be the one making money off it. Although some may not agree, many
drug traffickers and sex workers live by the consumer and demand concept to make
up for the lack of ethics within their line of business. The world of organized crime
consists of many different types of people performing many different types of illegal
duties. Although society views these acts as deviant, most of the criminals would not
identify like so. These people tend to the socially unacceptable needs of society and

Oppressed Women In Society

women were severely oppressed. Sadly, this was and is the case for a countless
amount of societies around the world. But, why? It is hard to comprehend why
women were below men for hundreds of years, but there are hundreds of reasons
why females were and are oppressed in society, particularly historically and
psychologically. In society there are many deep rooted issues making women
secondary to men.
Women s struggle for equality rests in the needs of society. In the book, The
Majority Finds Its Past: Placing Women in History , by Linda Gerber, she explains
that one of the main reasons women were and are oppressed is the simple fact that
females can have children, but why does that separate each gender? One of the
reasons is the simple fact that women can get pregnant because this is such a time
consuming process, it made it difficult to obtain the same social status as their male
counterparts. It was quickly established that men stood for physical power while a
woman stood for being the child bearer. This became the social norm for thousands
of societies around the world. As men were advancing, females were being held

Investigating the Reactions between Polyvinyl Alcohol and Borax in Making a
Rubber Ball
Introduction
Chemistry, while usually thought of as being practiced mostly in labs, actually
affects everyone, everywhere. Chemistry and chemical processes are constantly
occurring. We are dependent on them. The air that we breathe, the food that we eat,
and thousands of other simple and confusing things depend on chemistry. In this
particular case, the relationship between Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) and Sodium Borate
(Borax) is being investigated. PVA is a water soluble synthetic polymer (Maciborski,
and Salamone), while Borax is a natural mineral with many household uses. It can be
used as herbicide, to bleach teeth, as a household cleaner, and a ... Show more content

The decision was made to manipulate the ratio of PVA to borax, as that would allow
for different results. The first ratio chosen was 10:1, as it was thought to be a good
starting point. However, many experiments are needed to reach a conclusion, so
more ratios were tested out; the ratios 5:1, 3:1, and 2:1 were included as well, to get
a variety of results. With all these different options, it would be possible to see which
ratio was the closest and how that would impact the rest of the experiment.
The Borax and PVA were poured from their respective beakers into a smaller
(100mL) beaker, and then the solutions were stirred together thoroughly. This was
done for all the ratios. 20 mL of PVA and 2 mL of Borax were used for the 10:1 ratio;
10mL PVA and 2mL Borax for the 5:1. 12 mL PVA and 4mL Borax for the 3:1; and
10mL PVA and 5mL Borax for the 2:1 ratio.
The mixtures, after being made, were all allowed to rest in the beaker for 5
minutes. After the allotted time, the mixtures were taken out of the beakers using
rubber gloves, since they are a mild skin irritant due to the fact that they contain
Borax ( Material Safety Data Sheet ). They were then molded into a ball and tested
for durability, shape retention, and bounce. The ones having the best of all the
aforementioned qualities (5:1, 3:1, and 2:1 ratios) were then saved and put into
plastic bags to be used in the succeeding

The Haitian Revolution In Langston Hughes s Troubled
Island
Forward:
Contextualizing Troubled Island The Haitian Revolution (1791 1804) is history s
only successful slave revolt, and African enslaved persons managed a monumental
feat on a largely insignificant island in the Caribbean under French control. Naturally,
numerous persons were and are inspired by the Haitian Revolution in facets of life
from aggravating social change to creating high art. The story even remains impactful
without racial influence; considering, the dominated persons were long subjugated
and unprepared for battle, yet they defeated a world power for their freedom.
Concentrating on elevated art forms, Langston Hughes (1902 1967) wrote the libretto
Troubled Island grounded in the Haitian Revolution s aftermath and Haiti coming into
its own as a nation. By following the revolution s leader Jean Jacques Dessalines,
Troubled Island stresses Haiti s need to cope with the tribulations of banding together
and organizing an emerging nation. Moreover, the libretto highlights intraracism
among the Haitians following independence, including France s cultural influence
continuing to divide Haitians. Nevertheless, Troubled Island is not a total retelling of
actual, historical events, for persons creating a show often alter or add events to fit

Island
Forward:
Contextualizing Troubled Island The Haitian Revolution (1791 1804) is history s
only successful slave revolt, and African enslaved persons managed a monumental
feat on a largely insignificant island in the Caribbean under French control. Naturally,
numerous persons were and are inspired by the Haitian Revolution in facets of life
from aggravating social change to creating high art. The story even remains impactful
without racial influence; considering, the dominated persons were long subjugated
and unprepared for battle, yet they defeated a world power for their freedom.
Concentrating on elevated art forms, Langston Hughes (1902 1967) wrote the libretto
Troubled Island grounded in the Haitian Revolution s aftermath and Haiti coming into
its own as a nation. By following the revolution s leader Jean Jacques Dessalines,
Troubled Island stresses Haiti s need to cope with the tribulations of banding together
and organizing an emerging nation. Moreover, the libretto highlights intraracism
among the Haitians following independence, including France s cultural influence
continuing to divide Haitians. Nevertheless, Troubled Island is not a total retelling of
actual, historical events, for persons creating a show often alter or add events to fit
the operatic stage and emphasizes significant themes. Fundamentally, William Grant
Still (1895 1978) composed the music and Langston Hughes wrote the libretto for

Ap Bio Water Research Paper
Water
Water is a medium for metabolic reactions and an important constituent of cells. In
most plants and animals, it makes up about 65 95% of their mass. The water
molecule is referred to as a dipole, a polar molecule, with a positive (hydrogen) and
negative (oxygen) charge, separated by a very small distance. A molecule with a
separated charge is polar. A hydrogen bond; the weak attractive force between a
hydrogen atom with a partial positive (o+) charge and an atom with a partial
negative charge (o ) oxygen can be formed between two atoms. Hydrogen bonds are
weak, however in large quantities, like the large number present in water it makes
the molecules difficult to separate and gives water a wide range of physical
properties vital to life. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This is known as an О± 1,4 glycosidic bond.
Condensation reaction
Formation of a glycosidic bond between two glucose molecules, making maltose
Hydrolysis reaction
Hydrolysis of the glycosidic bond in maltose
Polysaccharides
Polysaccharides are large complex polymers; a large molecule comprising repeated
units, monomers bonded together by glycosidic bonds.
Glucose is the main source of energy in cells. It is soluble in water meaning it would
increase the concentration of a cell contents and draw water in by osmosis. It is
therefore converted into a storage product, starch, which;
Is insoluble so has no osmotic affect.
Cannot diffuse of the cell.
Is a compact molecule and can be stored in a small area.
Carries a lot of energy in its C H and C C bonds.

North Country By Niki Caro
Films reflect all aspects of life, like the depiction of law in society. This much is
true in the 2005 film North Country , directed by Niki Caro, based on a
fictionalized interpretation of the first historic class action sexual harassment
lawsuit in the United States, Jenson v Eveleth Mines. The film focuses on the main
character Josie, a single mom to two children, trapped by her abusive husband and
the lack of decent paying jobs for women so she could support her family. Josie
escapes, going back to her hometown in the rural part of Northern Minnesota, but the
only way to support her family was to go to work in the iron mines. Even though the
mines had been hiring women for years, maleemployees still outnumbered females
when Josie... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Finding three plaintiffs with similar grievances proved to be difficult, since a lot of
the female mine workers relied heavily on their jobs. In the end, Josie s true
character shines through, attracting multiple plaintiffs to her case and a victorious
win. One way this movie reflects the law in society is by illustrating the difference
between law on the books and law in action. Those in favor of the Civil Rights Act
of 1964, which is intended to eliminate discrimination based on characteristics like
sex, argued that laws protecting women from unpleasant jobs were...designed to
enable men to monopolize those jobs (CITE REP MARTHA GRIFFINS), which
discriminated against women who were not allowed to apply for these jobs. It wasn t
until 1975, nearly eleven years after this act passed, that the Northern Minnesota Iron
Mines even hired their first female miner. From that point, it seems as if the
unconstitutional discrimination against female miner worsened to the point where
men were still outnumbering female miners 30 to 1. Not only were the female miners
outnumbered but they were put it lower level positions as opposed to their male
counterparts, making the mines as Sterling and Reichman would put it, a gendered
organization (CITE). A gendered organization that promotes discrimination against its
female employees because it makes no effort to include them in

The media chooses to portray and sell sex, violence, drama and role models
because it appeals to teenagers biological and evolutionary instincts. The excessive

Visiting Schools Of Buddhism For Education Of Cambodia
Visiting communities of Buddhism for Education of Cambodia (BEC) s projects
was a meaningful activity. The monks from BEC are unquestionable active in
society and they have different programs for the support of housing, caring of
elderly people, educating prisoners, children and others. Their mission is to
provide ethical education and to render a peaceful live with high principles in
families and society. The Executive Director of this organization is Ven Rahula. In
the afternoon after lunch time we went to an isolated small village and they
showed us a project that they executed. One of the projects was a recent house
built a couple months ago for a grandmother with her three grandchildren. The lady
was in a real need of a house. Before the house was built, she had a tent in which
she was living. The monks also set up a floor covering in the middle of the dirty
road and in no time I saw about fifty kids sitting down. Ven Rahula started
educating the children about the five main principles to live a moral life. 1) No
Killing 2) No stealing 3) no sexual misconduct 4) No lying 5) No drinking alcohol.
Many times he kept repeating the five principles in Khmer and in English as well.
Rahula was patient and kind to them. We, mason group, were allowed to teach them
anything we wanted like words in English and games. I loved to be in between all
those kids and see the great morals and set of values that they are being implemented
at such young age. I consider a great idea that the

Fearless Research Paper
A hero can be defined as a person who is admired or idealized for courage,
outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. That definition is a perfect
description of Adam and his wife, Kelley. The whole book Fearless is about Adam
being a hero for his country and also himself. Kelley played a big part in the book
also. She pretty much saved Adam s life.
Adam was pretty much the definition of hero. From having a drug problem to going
above and beyond to serve his great country. Adam Brown was a Navy SEAL in the
United States Navy. He was a loving husband to his wife Kelley Brown, and a
caring father to his two children, Nathan and Savannah Brown. Adam Brown died
on March 17, 2010. Adam served on SEAL team 6. That was the team that took
down Al Qaeda leader, Osama bin Laden. For that reason, Adam was a hero. To

was because she saved Adam from the devil. Throughout chapters 1 through 9 in

two months of dating Adam, he had a relapse. For months she babysat Adam or
she was out looking for him at crack houses. That takes some want and a dedication
towards their relationship to stay together through the hard times. That is one of
the reasons Kelley is a hero. Kelley also was at home alone a lot when Adam was
deployed. She would take care of the two kids all by herself for several months at a
time. It had to have been really hard on her to not have her husband around a whole
lot. When Adam was finally home, Kelley was a wonderful wife to him. She
would run Adam hot bubble baths as it said on page 238 in the book. She would do
this every night for Adam. She was a wonderful wife and mother and for that reason

Mental Analysis on Holden Caulfield in J.D. SalingerÐ’ Ò‘s

Today in the United States, according the Nation Institute of Mental Health, ,
almost one in four adults suffer from a diagnosable mental disorder in any given
year, and one in seventeen adults are suffering from mental disorders that can be
considered serious, such as major depressive disorder, bipolar disorders, pervasive
developmental disorders, panic disorder, and post traumatic stress disorders (Health
Care Service Corporation) (The Numbers Count: Mental Disorders in America).
J.D. Salinger s novel, The Catcher in the Rye, provides the narrative of a young
adult, Holden Caulfield, who I believe shows many symptoms of several different
mental disorders. In this essay, I will be providing examples straight from The
Catcher in the Rye... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
He also mentions that he is always feels lonely and has a constant urge to commit
suicide, which is a severe symptom of depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety and
many other mental diseases and disorders. I also believe that these symptoms and
disorders can be kick started by a traumatic event. For Holden, this would be the
death of his little brother, Allie. The death of Allie could cause Holden to idolize
those who have the same characteristics as his kid brother. For example, since Allie
died young, Holden acts more generous and kind to children than he does to adults
or people his age. This is also why Holden idolizes his little sister, Phoebe, because
she shares any characteristics with Allie, including his red hair. Allie s red hair
might also be another reason that Holden cherishes his red hunting cap so much;
Holden described Allie s hair as being extremely red, so the redness of the hunting
cap might resemble the redness of Allie s and Phoebe s hair, so when Holden wears
the cap, he can pretend that he is more like them. However, it can be argued that
Holden s extreme emotions are typical of any teenager going through the transition
from being a child to an adult. Though it is true that adolescence teens ages fifteen

Diary Of Lady Murarasaki Analysis
In The Diary of Lady Murasaki, translated and introduced by Richard Bowring, the
author of the diary, Lady Murasaki, writes about her daily life as a lady in waiting
for Japanese royalty. It is set in the Heian Period, which is a relatively stable and
peaceful time in Japanese history. She uses various poetry and fashion throughout
her stories to demonstrate how this was the only way for women at that time to
express themselves. Her details about her live are vibrant and comprehensive. She
talks in detail about the events that the ladies attended, the things they wore, and
even the places they stood even on the wall. (Murasaki, 65) Most of her diary is
simply recording what is happening around her, but sometimes she will talk about
how she is feeling. Especially in regards to court life and how it is very difficult.
Poetry was a prevalent form of expression or escape for women in the court. Many
times women would not be allowed to speak their minds, but when they used
poetry they could say how they really felt about something. For example, in the
first pages of the diary, Lady Murasaki references a time when His Excellency
surprised her and was standing very near, and he asked her for a poem. She takes
the opportunity to talk about how the garden they are in makes her feel, which
typically would not be something women could tell him, but with the use of poetry
she could. (Murasaki, 4) Lady Murasaki was very pessimistic about court life. She

The Ten Year Cultural Revolution
The ten year Cultural Revolution, in essence, was a political power struggle inside
of the CCP, and as Mao died on September 9 1976, the Gang of Four was arrested
soon on October 10. Since Mao s successor Hua Guofeng was politically weak, Deng
Xiaoping came back to power. Though the new leaders tried to help China recover
from the revolution and rebuild the economic systems, the influences of the
revolution did not vanish quickly. The Party had to deal with the mistakes that Mao
made during the revolution, make the resolution on the revolution, and formulated
the new road that the country should follow. Other than the political struggles that the
Party faced, the society also created troubles. The intellectuals, especially the sent
down youths who illegally came back to cities, were excited and looking forward to a
democratic government, and they again started to criticize the government and
commented on the politics just like their predecessors did in the Hundred Flowers
Campaign. However, this situation did not satisfy Deng, who emphasized that the
correct line for China was to insist the absolute principle of the Party (Meisner, 457),
and he then decided to consolidate his power. In general, though Cultural Revolution
ended, the political struggles that it represented never stopped, and would be
continued for years. Meinser points out that Mao did construct the country and lead
its people to reach many striking successes, including building a modern nation state,

made during the revolution, make the resolution on the revolution, and formulated
the new road that the country should follow. Other than the political struggles that the
Party faced, the society also created troubles. The intellectuals, especially the sent
down youths who illegally came back to cities, were excited and looking forward to a
democratic government, and they again started to criticize the government and
commented on the politics just like their predecessors did in the Hundred Flowers
Campaign. However, this situation did not satisfy Deng, who emphasized that the
correct line for China was to insist the absolute principle of the Party (Meisner, 457),
and he then decided to consolidate his power. In general, though Cultural Revolution
ended, the political struggles that it represented never stopped, and would be
continued for years. Meinser points out that Mao did construct the country and lead
its people to reach many striking successes, including building a modern nation state,
Secularity Governance in Turkey
Turkey has been inhabited for thousands of years, since the Paleolithic Age. From
its extremely detailed and complicated history to its rich ethnic heritage, Turkey is a
culturally diverse land where east meets west. Turkey is located at the crossroads of
both Asia and Europe, which makes it politically and economically significant to
both eastern and western regions. Historically, Turkey was part of the cradle of
civilization, when it was known as Asia Minor . When it was colonized by the
Ancient Greeks, it was introduced into western European influence, along with the
establishment of the Byzantine Empire (Now, present day Istanbul) by the Romans.
The capture of the city by the Ottoman Empire, however, brought it back to Eastern
control. Unfortunately, the Ottoman Empire began slowly declining for several
centuries, finally bringing the fall of the empire and thus establishing the Turkish
Republic in 1923. This modern nation state was forged by the reforms of Mustafa
Kemal. Kemal sought to impose a secular rather, laГ ЇcitГ©, democratic system, in a
predominantly Islamic nation; this began Turkey s course toward progression and
modernization. My people are going to learn the principles of democracy the
dictates of truth and the teachings of science. Superstition must go. Let them
worship as they will, every man can follow his own conscience provided it does not
interfere with sane reason or bid him act against the liberty of his fellow men. .

Othello the Outsider Essay
Othello the Outsider
Shakespeare s tragic hero, Othello, was a man whose gifts far outnumbered his
weaknesses. On the battlefield, he was accomplished; in his profession, he was
highly ranked; and, in his life, he was blissfully married. Despite these great
advantages, however, Othello s destiny was ruin. Everything he had so carefully
made for himself would be destroyed by one flaw: his fear of remaining an outsider.
He feared this fate, yet he harped on it continuously, tearing himself between his
identity as a foreigner and his desire to live as a normal citizen. Even so far back as
his first public speech, perturbations caused by this internal unrest surfaced, and it
was unrest that would ultimately lead to his horrible and ... Show more content on
Helpwriting.net ...
If used too often, the approach turns from rhetoric into reality, and the speaker truly
is set apart. This method of appeal is used in many places by Othello, sometimes in
regular conversation, which leads to the feeling that he actually believes it. Later on,
when Iago needs to prey upon a weakness in our hero, this self doubt turns out to be
just the key to instilling distrust and jealousy.
As this first portion of self effacement ends, the text sweeps into a section of grand
language and imagery. Othello becomes picturesque for a moment, stating, For
since these arms of mine had seven years pith / Till now some nine moons wasted,
they have used / Their dearest action in the tented field; / And little of this great
world can I speak / More than pertains to feats of broils and battle (page 19). Every
line in this passage contains a descriptor of either vast time or vast expanse. The
images produced by the use of words that describe large things deliver a spacious,
worldly subtext meaning to Othello s literal meaning. Words such as, seven years,
moons, field, and great world create an extensive, cosmopolitan view of his life that
conflicts with the literal meaning of his speech, where he is bluntly saying that he
does not know about anything beyond battle.
The short, artistic detour of the middle of the speech is quickly focused back on
topic, though, and it only takes one line before

country were travelling to Toronto and the opponent s city to show their support for
the Jays. Unfortunately, their efforts were cut short in a series loss to the Kansas

Donaldson hit a .297 avg, hit 41 hrs and 123 RBIs in his first season as a Toronto
Blue Jay which lead to the nickname Bringer of rain . He was traded to the Jays in
return for Canadian third baseman Brett Lawrie. He was an amazing addition to
the team with his great skills at third base and his awesome batting skills. To repeat
his remarkable season, Donaldson will need to work just as hard if not harder than
he did last year and stay healthy. It is extremely hard to repeat the same stats from
year to year especially when an injury could occur at anytime and sideline you.
Donaldson maybe able to increase his stats by making pitchers walk him more.
This would help score more runs as well as win more games. Will Donaldson go
back to back as a MVP? Can he bring the rain once again this season? Training camp

Rhetorical Devices In Speech To The Troops At Elizabeth
Leadership shines through all writing of Elizabeth s writing such as her speeches
and even her actions. She shows time and time again that she can be a leader just
as such as a man. Which was an incredible feat even to this day. The undermining of
women in the workplace didn t start with elizabeth and it didn t end with elizabeth.
She was always told how to be a leader, what she should do with other nations but
her true initiation into the life of a queen was when she took control of how she
ruled and simultaneous picked up on common traits of a leader. I myself will take
up arms, I myself will be your general This quote is one of the most inspirational
and most full of rhetorical devices in her Speech to The Troops at Tilbury She uses
Convoluted metaphors, imagery, and diction in her writing and its one of the
most essential things that make her a great queen. I know I have the body but of a
weak and feeble woman; but i have the heart and stomach of king, and of a king of
england too, and think foul scorn that Parma or Spain , or any prince of Europe,
should dare to invade the borders of my real. Elizabeth explains to her subjects and
soldiers that she is the king that they want even if she is but a woman in their eyes.
She draws them in with this convoluted metaphor of having the heart of a king and
of england no less. This also supports her claim of being there for her people by
praising them. Which she does so well in the beginning by saying My loving people,

Spanish-American War
The Spanish American War was fought between the United States, and Spain. Sadly
it s not a popular subject in high schools these days, so most students don t know
anything about this war. The Spanish American War marked a new beginning for the
United States, Cuba and Spain. These countries where affected by the war because
the Spanish American war would end the Spanish Empire, create a new one, and give
a colony its independence.
WHAT STARTED THE WAR
The Spanish American war was about Cubin Independence. At the time of the war
Cuba had been a colony of Spain. Most people in America today don t know this
simply because they do know about the Monroe Doctrine. The Monroe Doctrine kept
Europe out of the new world but it didn t take away the ... Show more content on

The war in the Pacific was also important because the Spanish also no longer had a
fleet to govern and protect its colonies, leaving them open for rebellion and attack.
At the same time as the war in the Philippines a US fleet of four ships lead by
Captain Henry Glass moved on Guam. When the Fleet approached the Island of
Guam, they fired one round out of each gun upon the fort guarding the harbor. They
were confused when instead of firing back, the Spanish sent a cruiser out to replace
there ammo and gun powder. The Spanish thought the fleet was saluting their
authority (navies do this to military bases to show they do not intend on fighting, they
just need some supplies). When asked, the Spanish Commander had no idea there
was a war between Spain and the United States. The Spanish surrendered the island
and left with the American troops as POWs (Prisoners of War). This was yet
another heavy blow to Spain because the United States now had a base to put
supplies to fight wars in the Pacific
CARIBBEAN FRONT (CUBA)

of Cuba many battles had been fought and new tactics were developed. The

Uranium should be produced in a safe, healthy and environmentally responsible way
because this is important for consumers, producers and society as a whole. The
production of uranium through hydrometallurgical processes such as leaching, ion
exchange, solid liquid separation and solvent extraction has not been without
controversy, especially during the early stages of the industry. Nowadays, the
industry has changed drastically and a lot more can be done to ensure that safety is a
number one priority.

The process of mining uranium releases radon into the atmosphere as well as other
heavy metals if not properly managed. Radon is a colourless, tasteless gas and
exposure to high levels can increase the chances of getting cancer. As a result, every

Biological Weapons Of Mass Destruction Essay
Biological Weapons of Mass Destruction
One of the three serious weapons used for mass destruction is biological.
Historically, biological weapons are the oldest form of WMD and have been in
use since the Medieval Ages. During medieval times corpses were placed on
catapults and launched into an enemy s water or food supply to poison is and cause
deadly infections. As far as being used the United States, in 1763 when British
officers planned to distribute blankets with smallpox (eku, 2017). In this era the use
of biological weapons was new and thought this particular strategy was necessary to
win out wars between countries. These horrific attempts were continued during war
as generals made it a priority to kill off their enemies and instill ... Show more content

Smallpox is another highly contagious viral disease that shows signs of high fever,
severe weakness, and an eruption of pimples that blister, produce pus, and form
pockmarks on the body. The most common three ways biological weapons work
are: One is contact with the skin, two is gastrointestinal, and three is pulmonary
(eku, 2011). Biological weapons are very serious and any country, state, or city
being threatened by this needs to take it very seriously. Not only is this type of
weapon hazardous but it is actually pretty easy to create and get a hold of. Terrorist
groups are drawn to easy ways to create panic and chaos, threatening to release this
type of weapon will definitely cause that. A biological attack can not only cause
sickness and death in one particular area, but can also spread from one country to
another due to how easily it can be spread.
Chemical Weapons of Mass Destruction
Chemical weapons are manmade poisons that are made to kill, injure, and
incapacitate others. They are dangerous because they are silent and are often
invisible to the naked eye. They typically attack different parts of the body like skin,
lungs, and can make you confused of what is going around you. Types of chemical
weapons include blister agents, blood agents, choking hazard agents, nerve agents,
tear gas, vomiting agents and psychiatric compounds. . These agents can be sarin,

Dan Coats Essay
The battle for the state of Indiana is usually quite set. Indiana has long been
considered to be a staunch Republican supporting state, especially in Presidential
races. The Hoosier state has only supported a Democratic candidate for president five
times since 1900. These include Woodrow Wilson, Franklin D. Roosevelt in two
elections, Lyndon Johnson, and, by a mere 1% margin, Barak Obama. But, it is also
interesting to note that eleven Democrats have been elected Indianas governor during
that same time span. On the other hand, 14 Republican presidential candidates have
defeated a Democratic candidate by double digit margins, including six times when a
Republican won by more than 20%. Historically, Republicans have been strongest in

This is important because of that roughly 4.9 million people, enough voted for the
Republican Daniel Coats to return to the US Senate after a 12 year hiatus.
When trying to win any election in Indiana, candidates need to focus on the issues
facing the everyday Hoosier. Specifically, the economy and jobs in Indiana are
paramount. Understandably, candidates try to focus on Indiana s largest economic
markets to get as much support as possible. For example, Northwestern Indiana is the
largest steel producing area in the U.S. Besides steel, pharmaceuticals and medical
devices reign king in central Indiana (Bureau of Labor Statistics, http://stats.bls.gov
/eag/eag.in.htm). This is largely attributed to the international headquarters and
research facilities of pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly, the state s largest corporation,
residing in Indianapolis. Similarly, the world headquarters of Mead Johnson
Nutritionals is located in Evansville, Indiana. Logically so, Indiana ranks fifth among
all U.S. states in total sales and shipments of pharmaceutical products and second
highest in the number of bio pharmaceutical related jobs (Terre Haute Economic
Development Center, http://www.terrehauteareaedc.com/econ_industry.htm).
Therefore, when politicians look to pick up the work force s vote, they give special
attention to these departments. On

facing the everyday Hoosier. Specifically, the economy and jobs in Indiana are
paramount. Understandably, candidates try to focus on Indiana s largest economic
markets to get as much support as possible. For example, Northwestern Indiana is the
largest steel producing area in the U.S. Besides steel, pharmaceuticals and medical
devices reign king in central Indiana (Bureau of Labor Statistics, http://stats.bls.gov
/eag/eag.in.htm). This is largely attributed to the international headquarters and
research facilities of pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly, the state s largest corporation,
residing in Indianapolis. Similarly, the world headquarters of Mead Johnson
Nutritionals is located in Evansville, Indiana. Logically so, Indiana ranks fifth among
all U.S. states in total sales and shipments of pharmaceutical products and second
highest in the number of bio pharmaceutical related jobs (Terre Haute Economic
Development Center, http://www.terrehauteareaedc.com/econ_industry.htm).
Therefore, when politicians look to pick up the work force s vote, they give special
attention to these departments. On

Palm. ABA Journal, 68 70.
The merger of a Palm handheld computer and a mobile telephone is the first device
that combines cell phone mobility with powerful computing. Thus, merger of
mobility and muscle produces pocket size prodigy. Hirsch mentioned the
Smartphone, by San Diego based Kyocera, combines a cell phone and a fully
functional Palm in a single pocket device. Compared with a regular Palm, it is a
little thicker, a little taller and seems a fraction of a second slower to respond to the
stylus. The screen is slightly smaller and the device slightly heavier, though the
difference is not very noticeable. But the negatives ... Show more content on

Massola, James (2007, July 12). Apple s iPhone illustrates feature creep. Eureka
Street, 8 9.
Massola state that the arrival of the iPhone is the latest example of the upgrade
cycle that drives our consumer society. It promises the latest in features and
technology. It is quite possible there has never been so much excitement over a
phone before. The new features it promises, whether we need them or not, are the
hook used to capture new customers. In a world in which we already have too much
stuff , it is questionable whether we are really improving the quality of our life by
persisting with the cycle of upgrades that manufacturers stimulate. The number of
early adopters out there are those people who have to have the latest and greatest and
seems to grow exponentially.

Lord Of The Flies Persuasive Speech
Lord of the Flies, a shockingly vivid novel crafted by William Golding, explores
the intense reality of disastrous government in a unique and understandable
manner. Stranded on a deserted island after a mysterious plane crash, lacking
shelter, safety, and adult supervision, a group of prepubescent boys survival is
doomed from the start. Elected leader, Ralph is assigned to lighten the load, and
provide a sense of security for the young boys, aching to go home. But as things
begin straying to chaos, a community meeting is held where the most vital
personalities on the island, Ralph, Jack and Piggy, each give a statement as to what
they believe needs to be done in an attempt to maintain order. Ralph and Piggy, who
are portrayed as protagonists... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Again, he establishes his credibility and tears the audience down a bit more, as he
states, Well then I ve been all over this island. By myself. If there were a beast I d
have seen it. Be frightened because you re like that but there is no beast in the
forest (Golding 83). By saying this, he is showing the younger boys that he knows
what he is talking about, and his reason, because he has seen every nook and
cranny of the island. And because the group is so young, and they have been
longing for someone to find security and knowledge in every since they were
stranded, they believe him wholeheartedly. This works entirely to the advantage of
Jack, as he is now holding this clan of misfits within his grasp. Despite the fact that
they may all fear him and take offense to his words, there is no other direction for
them to turn, and they must all obey the terms he
