Throughout the history of motion pictures, the industry has produced a vast number and variety of films that have differed from genre to genre.

Space Race: The USA Wins The Competition To The Moon And The Cold War Few moments define the twentieth century and human scientific advancement like the Apollo moon landing. But now, almost fifty years later, we may forget that this achievement was the result of a relatively short and furious "space race," with a mere twelve years separating the first manmade object orbiting Earth (Sputnik 1 in 1957) and Neil Armstrong 's 1969 walk on the moon. No human has ventured so far since the end of the Apollo
When man first walked on the moon it was a very significant accomplishment for mankind, especially the U.S.A., many people wrote articles or simply talked about and shared their opinions on this incredible accomplishment. In the text that appeared in Times magazine titled, “Man Takes First Steps on the Moon”, one can see how much of an accomplishment it was for the U.S and many other people to have been able to walk on the moon.

Well before I read this book, I actually did think about what the title could mean and why the author wrote it so. Before I read this book I thought the book was about astronauts or something ridiculous. During the book I had some ideas that "The Fault In Our Stars" meant a mistake or something that predestined one's fate. I was kind of close.

Audre Lorde once said, “I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her shackles are very different than my own.” These “shackles” Lorde referred to are the almost inescapable gender constructs seen across society.

Jace Thacker Pre-AP English II, B8 Mrs. Connor April 17, 2015 Prisoners of Death Bang! Boom! All you can see is darkness, but you hear as if outside. Prisoners of war were captured everywhere during WWII. POW camps had better treatment and were better than than other concentration camps. The conditions of the camps varied from one to another, but from Stalags and Concentration camps, they were close to the same. A large portion of deaths in POW camps were from “lack of food” (Uhl 1).

The door to the bulky module unlatched to a whirr, and from behind it emerged a figure cladded in white. “One giant leap for mankind,” the man uttered, as he descended the short flight of stairs down to ground level, disengaging his fishbowl helmet to the pleased “Cut!” of the director and the thrilled clapping of everyone else in the studio.
