Horror Film: The Giant Hogweed By Renfrew County

The novel, The Tumbleweed Society, written by Allison J. Pugh, was published on January 9, 2015 by Chicago Book Addict. In this book, Pugh sits down and has conversations with adults from different working classes and economic stances; lower class, middle class, and upper-class. These adults give insight from their individual lives by telling different stories emphasizing struggles in three main areas; home life, work life, and relationships. Pugh truthfully reveals the different worlds people live in and what everyone in different social classes must endure. The job insecurity and the uncertainty of everything else that haunts these people’s lives also have a huge impact on their development as people and

Then in the early 1970’s, a large seed reservoir was present and effectively cultivated a crop of spotted knapweed where the soil had once been disturbed (SCWD, n.d.). This infestation had remained unattended to until 1983, when the Stillwater Mining Company began operations. The Stillwater Mining Company began aggressive measures to control the spotted knapweed, but the weed had established itself and began spreading to adjoining private and public properties. Since then, the efforts of the Stillwater Mining Company, local land owners, Untied States Forest Service (USFS), the Stillwater Valley Watershed Council, and Stillwater County have effectively controlled the spotted knapweed in all areas except for along the river corridor (SCWD.

Throughout slaughterhouse five Billy Pilgrim lives a metaphorical life that exhibits the destructiveness of war, destroys the concept of time and death. Kurt tells his war experience through the fictional life of Billy Pilgrim who has come unstuck in time. Billy is unstuck in time because he was dragged through life in a way that had no sequence. The point of view of my novel is omniscient, since the author is both the narrator and part of the story.

The Haunting of Hill House is a book about four people that all have backgrounds of experiencing supernatural events. Because of this, they were all chosen to explore the supernatural happenings occurring at Hill House. The house was originally built by a man named Hugh Crain. It had been a place of mysterious events and also the deaths of those who lived there. Dr. Montague, a supernatural investigator, then carefully selected three people with paranormal backgrounds, and invited them to explore the occurrences at the house. Luke, the future heir of the house, Theodora, a careless artist, and Eleanor Vance are invited to the house. Eleanor Vance is the main character and narrator of the story. She lived alone,

I choose to interpret the representation of cars in The Haunting of Hill House. In this novel, a car is first represented as a means of control over Eleanor by her sister (Jackson 7). However, Eleanor’s stealing of the car transforms the car into a representation of freedom from her present life (Jackson 10). The car allows Eleanor to be free of her controlled life and to begin her own journey (Jackson 10). We observe the same car at the conclusion of the novel as a device used to free herself from her forced departure of Hill House (Jackson 178). She uses the car to commit suicide, allowing her to stay at Hill House indefinitely (Jackson 182). I argue that in the novel the car is utilized for control

In “The Haunting of Hill House”, Jackson uses a third person point of view in order to create an ambiguous feeling during the supernatural experiences which leads to confusion of weather the novel falls under the sub-genre female gothic, or not. Jackson starts the novel with a very powerful quote: “No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream.” (1). That famously known quote is indeed very ambiguous, that evokes suspense. The sub-genre female gothic conventions consist of an old haunted house, mystery and suspense, supernatural experiences, women distress during a transition to adulthood or motherhood, repressed emotions, an aspect of feminism, heroic male figure, dark, and horror. The Haunting of Hill House consists of some of the female gothic conventions but lacks some too.

In the beginning of the movie the director show us the small town of Wirrawee that was once a peaceful, even a boring place. Somewhere you would think it's very unlikely to run into armed soldiers. But when it is occupied by enemy forces, Wirrawee transmuted drastically. Ellie sitting in the once facilely recognisable garden of family friends, Mrs Alexander, knowing that enemy soldiers are approaching, Ellie must have felt terrified. Life, as she knew, had turned upside down. A news report later confirmed this “Enemy forces occupy all the coastal towns… 40 people are dead.” “We believed we were safe. That was the big fantasy.” Ellie was very brave to cope with the going violine and to lead her friends back to home.n

The irritating irritants. The venom from each insect assault, can lead to irritation, swelling, infection, or a red mark. However in most cases it can or cannot be harmless, but also remain painful and

To escape the reality of this undeniably complicated world, would be something so distant to even consider, yet it would not be impossible to. The film “Where the Wild Things Are” unconsciously portrays an attempt at this escape through the leading role, Max and his fellow Wild Things. Max’s Journey could be considered a quest for sanity and morality in the sense that his everyday life initiated him to escape this reality and experience a much preferable life in which would be considered his safe space, where he was unknowingly faced with his own deepest aspects of himself through the personalities and conflicts of others leading him to further learn his place in the world.

Marijuana is a drug that is prepared from the bloom head (flower) of cannabis plant and it is utilized as a medication in some conditions, such as, glaucoma and so forth.

Marijuana is listed under one of the ancient and prohibited drugs with high rate of use for both medical and recreational purposes (Grinspoon and Bakalar qtd. in Lucas et al. 435). It has been used for the last 5000 years around the world by both legal and illegal ways. Furthermore, Grinspoon and Bakalar in their research say that “despite the high rate of recreational use and over 5000 years of therapeutic applications, this plant has resulted in relatively few serious negative physical or social impacts beyond the consequences associated with legal prohibitions on its use” (Lucas et al. 435). Canada was the first country in the world which outlawed use of cannabis in 1923 and there are no scientific basis behind its prohibition (MacQueen

cultivation of the hemp plant is currently legal in Canada for its seed, grain and fibre, albeit it is all done

Day in and day out we find ourselves looking down at our phone to reply to a text or check out a new instagram picture that someone posted. Phones and the internet play a huge roll in our society today as how we communicate relies solely on these devices. Just like our phones, our society craves horror such as in horror films and books. One specific horror film that is famous to the U.S. is The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, involving five kids that stumble upon an eery home. How would this movie change if the cellphones we use today were such a thing in this time period? An upgrade in technology would change this movie drastically by the ways and means of transportation, communication, and distraction.

Noxious weeds can be very harmful to all aspect of rangeland. They can outcompete native grasses and forbs causing a loss of forage to livestock and wildlife.

Programs have been created to help with the invasion of weeds. It’s taken lots of time and resources to get programs started up to be able to combat the effect of noxious weeds.
