What makes people seek for experiences that make them feel scared? Fear is the expectation or the anticipation of possible harm, so why do people like it? There is a hormone called dopamine, that is released during scary and thrilling activities, according to David Zald, some individuals may get more of a kick of this hormone than others. Lots of people enjoy scary experiences, because of the feeling that they have after these situations. As reported by ABC News, in “Spooky Business American Economy”, people spend about 7 million dollars in Halloween, looking for costumes, decoration objects, and also in haunted houses. People enjoy scary movies, roller coasters, and haunted houses. Similarly, people enjoy thrilling literature, as Edgar Allan Poe and Louise Erdrich poems, “The Raven” and “The windigo” respectively. Both of these authors write and explore death and the ambiguity of what will happen after death, by using concrete examples of imagery and symbols, structured paragraphs, and a certain type of diction.

The Grants observed how the two ground finches preformed while attempting to obtain a seed called a Caltrop. Caltrops naturally have spikes around the seed as a defense against intruders. The Magnirostris did not have a hard time cracking open the Caltrop, with its hard, powerful jaw. However the Fortis would have to put more effort into cracking a single seed. The regular Fortis would try for six times and then give up, moving on to another seed. They will often move onto a different seed without trying. However the Fortis with a beak that is slightly deeper beak would attempt to crack the caltrop, and after a few tries, will succeed.

Imagine if there were a significant period in American history, in which a skilled and competent writer had not taken pen in hand, to capture that period's significance or meaning. One must ask, what would be inherently lost, if all we had were self serving war stories such as, "American Sniper" or "Zero Dark Thirty," (as entertaining as they might be) to reflect upon the deeper meanings of the wars of this time. Moreover, one could only imagine the loss, if during other significant periods of American history; there were no captivity narratives such as Mary Rowlandson's. What if, "The Red Badge of Courage," or "The Things They Carried," had never graced the pages of our text books? For a decade now, students and scholars alike have waited patiently for something that is more than just

Soaring high above the ground late at night, under the dark canopy of trees. Stooping down low to catch a small rodent. It flies back up into its nest, ready to eat. There is only one animal that matches all of these descriptions, and that’s an owl! A particular owl, called the Northern Spotted Owl, is a small brown bird that lives in old-growth forests also known as “cloud forests”. This essay will provide information on the northern spotted owl and discuss its appearance, habitat and diet, and give you some interesting facts about it.

Hi… I search for the chapter title in the Internet. What does it mean? How does it relate to the chapter? Well, I found that is the study a bird of the crow family (e.g. crows, ravens, rooks, etc.), but the symbolic meaning of the Raven in Native American Indian lore describes the raven as a creature of metamorphosis, and symbolizes change, or transformation, instead the Raven is considered a trickster because of its transforming, or changing attributes in other tribes. In the case of Cheryl, by the chapter, I can tell is a good thing; giving the case that her body is getting stronger, of course she was beaten by the trail.

Barn owls are the most widely distributed species of owl, and one of the most widespread of all birds. These owls can be located almost anywhere in the world besides polar and desert regions. The barn owl is a nocturnal hunter that rests in abandoned buildings and trees. While hunting, the owl relies on its acute sense of hearing to guide them in the dark. Barn owls received their name due to their tendency to nest in old barns. This predatory bird's diet can vary depending on the location in which the owl lives. In North America and Europe, voles and shrews dominate the owl's diet, while the Mediterranean region their diet is mainly mice and rats.

The American Crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos) is a large bird found throughout the United States and parts of North America. All species are “two-legged, thick-necked birds with heavy, straight bills” (Vuilleumier 465). The American Crow is the largest crow in North America and is most well known for its call. Their caw is “lower than other subspecies” (465). Distribution of the American Crow differs from season to season. In the summer during breeding season, they can travel as far as the northern territories of Canada. In the fall, they are likely to spend their time in the lower 48 states and migrate as far south as the Mexico-United States border.

“The Raven” represents Poe’s confidence that the artistic feeling of a poem is an end to itself. Poe used several symbols to take the poem to a higher level. The raven was the most recognizable symbol throughout the poem. When Poe had decided to use a refrain that repeated the word "nevermore," he found that it would be most effective if he used a non-reasoning creature to utter the word. In 'The Raven' the symbol is obvious. Poe himself meant the Raven to symbolize 'mournful, never-ending remembrance.' Our narrator's sorrow for his lost, perfect maiden Lenore is the driving force behind his conversation with the Raven. In turn, the Raven, even through his limited vocabulary, forces the narrator to face the reality that Lenore will return 'nevermore,' a fact that the narrator does not want to acknowledge. As a result, by the poem's conclusion the Raven has the eyes 'of a demon's' and its shadow hangs over the narrator's soul. For the poem's speaker, the Raven has moved beyond mournful, never-ending remembrance to an embodiment of evil. In speaking of “The Raven,” Poe declared that an intended undercurrent of meaning first becomes apparent in the metaphorical “Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!/ Quoth the Raven ‘Nevermore!’” The raven thus becomes “emblematical of Mournful and Never-Ending Remembrance.” The undeniable power of “The Raven” comes from the inexplicable, overwhelming sorrow at the heart of the poem, conveyed through the
