Captain Honore Dialectical Journal

“Magellan’s extraordinary skill as a strategist proved to be the decisive factor in negotiating the entire length of the Dragon's Tail” (Doc C). He ordered lookouts to go to the highest perch on the ship, where they could see obstacles and waterways that were ahead. He sent small scouting parties in long boats who would come back with news of the findings, so that armada could go further ahead.This helped Magellan a lot and he could plan his next move. He often tasted the water to locate where he was. If the water was fresh he knew he was inland, if the water was salty he knew he was close to the

During a warm, sunny morning at a house surrounded by a big field of flowers, Oyasumi has to babysit two kids, Prince Alfred and Nature Alfred. Oyasumi made a cup of coffee for herself as she waited for the kids to arrive. They finally arrived at Oyasumi’s house and ran to the door, excited and happy. Oyasumi didn’t want them in her house with the thoughts of something possibly breaking, so she told them to play outside. Nature Alfred rolled around in the flowers, purring with happiness to finally see lots of plant life, while Prince Alfred became bored. After a few minutes, Nature Alfred also got bored. Prince Alfred felt like roleplaying as his character, a prince, but he also didn’t want Oyasumi to be the “beautiful” princess in his roleplay.

If you read the diary of a high school girl, what could you learn about her? The name of her best friend, what kind of a person she is, and maybe even signs of troubles deeper than the bad grade she got on her last chemistry exam would pop out at you. She probably would not explicitly state these things, either—they would become apparent simply by looking at how often her best friend’s name appeared within the pages, how she interacted with the people around her, and how she described her thoughts and feelings. Seeing things directly from her perspective would give you a unique look at who she was as a person, what her relationships with other people were like, and what her take on events was, all without ever being told what they were like

Emelie squealed sheepishly, and she quickly shoved her books into her bag and slammed her locker shut.

Matthew Fontaine Maury, known as the “Pathfinder of the Sea,” constructed a map of average wind currents, which helped ships determine the path they needed to follow. In doing this, he allowed ships to more accurately position themselves and make adjustments accordingly to end up at their intended destination. During the Civil War, the Confederate Navy commissioned Maury, and he was assigned with the task of harbour defence. He also began experimenting with electric mines, and was later sent to England as a special agent.

You had never thought of yourself as an object, nor did you ever truly think of yourself as human being. You were simple existed with no real meaning. If you thought about it deep enough, you might conclude it was for your sister, the leader of some gang in the midst of some unknown town on the east coast of the US. You remember the nights she crawled into your bed when her night terrors became too much and you missed the warmth of her slipping her arm around you as she cried into your back. You wondered how she would be getting along without you now, considering she gave you up.

Huck and Tom decided that they needed to plan out, on how to save Jim. Tom talks about how rescuing Jim is too easy, since his uncle trusts everyone on his farm. He tells Huck that there is more honor in having more difficulties, so he wants to add them himself. Huck is surprised to hear this and questions Tom. Tom then talks about what else they will need on their escape. He wants to do everything the harder way. After talking, Tom decides that Jim should cut off his leg to escape, because that how people in the book did it. Huck refuses to listen to his ideas. Tom also wants to give Jim a shirt, and tell him to make a pencil, and write on a journal on the fabric. He advises that jim used his own blood as ink. Huck still refuses to let Jim do any of what he is saying. The two

When he left the shore he didn't know what was to lie ahead in his journey, but to say the least it was the most prosperous voyage ever made. He opened so

Chapter 8 Protagonist/s: Marie-Laure LeBlanc/ Werner Pfennig Antagonist/s: Germans Time: 9th August 1944 Summary: Allied artillery begins shelling Saint-Malo again. Von Rumpel becomes delirious from his illness and attempts to search the house once again.

“Aw, I don't understand this stuff, sis,” the boy exclaimed in a loud voice, breaking the silence, “Why do I need to learn about vectors for anyway? I'm gonna be a pilot, like Wyatt; I don't need to study all this useless junk. Jolker say's I'm a natural born pilot.”

I do not consider myself to be anybody’s best friend. While I do have many friends that I consider myself to be close with (and I’d like to believe they opposite is true), the school year has just started and many friendships that existed last year may or may not fade away as time passes by. This is because friendships are mainly built on conversations shared daily, whether they be in the classroom or outside on social media. Even if one person is reluctant to hold a conversation, then the bonds of friendship will slowly and steadily break apart due to the lack of sustained interaction on a daily basis. Communication is paramount to ensuring that a relationship is maintained. In my case, I do not believe I interact with anyone on a daily basis enough to be considered “best friends.” Sure, I would consider many people I’m acquainted with good friends, but that is the extent of our friendship. On the other hand, I have several good friends because we have relatively good chemistry. Successful interaction with one another has led to a mutual desire to sustain our friendships.

For Carolinians to navigate using the stars they had to have had a good concept of astronomy their use of the stars was in more of a practical sense. In Lewis’s “voyaging Stars” Nautical astronomy was

Navigation in ancient times, centuries before such advances as radios, satellites and GPS, relied upon sight, sound and knowledge. The first journey’s upon the sea no doubt relied upon sight and used the costal shores to navigate. Remaining in sight of land to fish and journey short distances along the coast. Venturing farther from shore using unique or recognizable formations as landmarks, the position of the sun, clouds and other indicators of land. The Phoenicians

Up until the late 15th century, the furthest any sailor had ventured was around the Mediterranean Sea and to its’ neighboring countries. No one dared to venture too far, as they had no clue where they were going nor how to get back home. Though this changed with new navigational advancements like the
