This could only mean one thing, he was poisoned and then stabbed as a coverup. The crew had to think long and hard, who would do this? Their question was answered when they found a opium pill beside his body. The only person on the ship who carried opium pills was the ship’s chef, Bobby. They looked behind them and they couldn’t find Bobby, they thought maybe he saw the pill and left when nobody was looking, knowing that they would find the pill eventually. The crew finally found him lurking around and took him to court. The court found him guilty of first degree murder and he was placed in jail for life. The first mate was released from prison and he was so thankful that the crew looked at his body a second time. The only question left to answer was why he would kill the captain. He was very notorious for being a rebel, and although he was a new recruit he found a grudge very quickly and wasn’t afraid to be brute to anyone he didn’t like. He was also good friends with the cooper, and Bobby made the mistake of telling him everything, the cooper finally came clean. It turns out his plan was to become the captain’s friend in order to illude people from thinking he was capable of committing murder, his

Have you ever felt like you have done actions that have made you feel guilty and suicidal on the inside? Francis Cassavant, the main character in the book “Heroes” by Robert Cormier, has. Even though Francis is filled with internal conflict at many parts in the story he is still a hero. His suicidalness he feels toward himself, his self consciousness due to his war injury, and the guilt he carries around of what he let happen to Nicole

Despite the grimness of their situation they have assured themselves that they will be rescued. Each character seems to have a particular mindset about their situation. The captain is slightly in shock from the loss of the ship, the cook is hopeful and positive to the point of arrogance, the correspondent is pessimistic, and the oiler is entirely concentrated on survival. The oilers attitude later becomes ironic as he is the only one to die at sea. Despite being in a rather hopeless situation, the characters have some expectation of rescue. Even so, the positive outlook of the cook seems to irk the correspondent somewhat during their

As there journey began they had many dilemmas but I would say their first dilemma was the death of Sean O’Brien a young Irish men found with his brother Allen O’Brien when they collected the cattle for the drive. That part of the story was the first major event of the story driving fear in many of the crew. As the drive went north, so did Jake spoon, who brought along a woman by the name of Lorena Wood. Lorena is major character in the story as she is a love interest of both Augustus McCrae, Jake Spoon ,and desired by many. The story had an interesting offshoot that involved a sheriff from fort smith, Arkansas by the name of July Johnson. This story begins with Jake Spoon who was in fort smith

Throughout Shakespeare’s plays, a vital aspect in his writing is similarity to classic Greek tragedy; specifically including a tragic hero, who is identified by a detrimental flaw ingrained in their character, eventually causing their demise. Bill Cosby, a beloved family comedian, prominent figure in American television, and an imperative influence on American’s view of black families, depicts a modern day tragic hero. However, like all tragic heroes, Bill Cosby had a downfall, as Mark Seal states in his article, “The One Accuser who might bring Bill Cosby down for Good,” he allegedly committed over 60 sexual assaults and rapes. Therefore, it is apparent that Bill Cosby portrays a tragic hero because he was an outstanding figure in the civil rights movement. He was beloved; nevertheless, he destroyed his life work, reputation, and family by sexually assaulting young women throughout his life.

An intervention would need to be very careful in this situation, for the reason that an intervention may be in contrast to the native religion beliefs. By reason of many natives indicating to spirit obstruction as to experiences that cannot be explained. I believe organizations will need to be discreetly disclosed Kereta's strange experience as likely a development, symptoms of a psychological disorder, while being respectful to the native’s religion and beliefs

A possible theme for Oedipus the King by Sophocles is that one’s blindness can hide the inevitability that is his destiny. Oedipus is in this situation. He struggles to escape his fate: killing his father and marrying his mother and believes he is successful. Sophocles believes that the gpds control one’s destiny and the inevitability that a person will do what is destined despite there hero’s intentions.Oedipus represent the standards of a true tragic hero: he is well known, basically good, his punishment is out of proportion compared to his crime, the audience at some point feels sorrow and pity for him, and Oedipus has a tragic flaw. During the whole story Oedipus thinks that he may be able to change his fate a live life how he wants but he falls to that which is his destiny.For these reason Oedipus is truly an example of a tragic hero and is unable to avoid his tragic fate.

Colonel Cathcart’s manipulation of the finish line is funny until the moment we realize the body count left behind by his petty ambitions. As the number of missions drags on, characters disappear one by one until the main character, Yossarian, is almost entirely alone. Clevinger, Orr, Dunbar, Dobbs, Kid Samson, McWatt, and Hungry Joe all disappear. By the end of the novel, half of the named characters are dead, and there’s no better culprit than Colonel Cathcart. Rather than a slapstick comedy, Cathcart’s constant raising of the number of missions takes on a Sisyphean edge. On a lesser scale than Colonel Cathcart, the same pattern of surface-level comedy turning disturbing is present with Aarfy. Aarfy is initially played as a good-natured, if mischievous, man. Sure, Aarfy is a complete disaster of a navigator, a characteristic that is played for laughs when Aarfy navigates them into extreme danger repeatedly. Although Aarfy seems to only befriend Nately in hopes for a job offer after the war, Aarfy still seems virtuous when he expresses his refusal to take advantage of nice girls and to pay for prostitutes. Aarfy’s existence seems to be a joke made just to annoy him squad mates, and the punchline hits horrifically when Yossarian discovers Aarfy raping a maid before killing her to silence her. When questioned on his actions, Aarfy repeats his previous statement of never paying for sex. Thus concludes the joke, and the reader is

On the Captain’s order, the oiler rows the boat directly toward the shore. The boat capsizes and the people on the boat are so weak that it is hard for them to even keep their heads above water.
