Ben Hall? Who was Ben Hall? A victim, hero or a criminal? Good Afternoon fellow students and Mrs. Nielsen. The topic that we will be debating this afternoon is: Ben Hall was a decent, innocent young man who suffered continual harassment by the police for no reason at all. He was driven into crime by the harshness of the authorities. Therefore making him an outlaw hero. A hero is defined as a person who, in the opinion of others, has heroic qualities or has performed a heroic act and is regarded as a model or ideal. Today I will be talking about Ben hall’s life and what makes him a hero.

I really enjoyed reading this piece, the way that Lamott wrote it and her way of describing things really caught my attention. How she says she questions herself reminds me of the way that I do the same thing when I write, hearing that a professional does it as well really makes me realize writing doesn’t come easy to even the best. The way that

It was interesting to learn by reading this book that Dr. Hahn grew up as a Presbyterian, yet later converted to Catholicism. He got an early taste in life of what confession means when he was caught shoplifting records growing up in Pittsburgh, PA. In Chapter 1 (Getting Our Stories Straight), there is an excerpt of the chapter titled the Pittsburgh Stealer where he explains how he disappointed his father and how he viewed him in a different light after he confronted him about shoplifting. His father was no longer just a judge, jury, and executioner, but represented God’s fatherhood to him because he realized he had broken his father’s heart. “I wish I could say that this was the moment of my conversion to Christ---a dazzling and sudden

When the body of the California woman and her unborn child were found four months later, her husband, Scott, was charged with two counts of murder. Detective Craig Grogan gave a sworn statement that he had probable cause to believe Mr. Peterson committed two counts of the crime of 187 Penal Code, homicide, on or about December 23 or 24 of 2002, in the county of Stanislaus. April 17, 2003 the Judge of the Superior Court in Stanislaus County, California issued a warrant for the arrest of Scott Lee Peterson.

Until the recent year of 1987 people often saw the neolithic age as a glorious turning point that made us the great spices we are today, but Jared diamond a brilliant scientist of his age wrote an article for discover magazine called The Worst Mistake in the History of the Human Race by Jared diamond which presented a rare idea of the neolithic age being a mistake by our ancestors. He talked about how with agriculture came biased and disease like a real pandora's box. Disease was mostly caused by things like an unhealthy diet, and biased was caused by an unnecessary social classes. A few years ago a blogger and a supporter and student of traditional farming countered Jared diamond’s article with rage due to him believing that everyone was siding with Jared Diamond.Although his argument is sloppy and could not be called a scientific paper. Jared diamond was and is more convincing than Jim Woods in arguing that the neolithic age should be a considered a negative turning point in human history. This is because with agriculture came the faults of humanity such as racism, sexism, biased, etc., the very problems that humanity has been

This trait in Ellis’s writing and teaching style is what really grabbed me and got me interested in the book. How wise is the person who realizes that as scholarly as they may be, there may always be a better opinion out there? Joseph has presented to me a most noble way to write. He has circumvented my prejudice against authors who insist that their ideas and methods are the only thoughts that exist.

William Paterson (Patterson) was born in County Antrim, Ireland, in 1745. When he was almost 2 years of age, his family emigrated to America, disembarking at New Castle, DE. While the father traveled about the country, apparently selling tinware, the family lived in New London, other places in Connecticut, and in Trenton, NJ. In 1750 he settled in Princeton, NJ. There, he became a merchant and manufacturer of tin goods. His prosperity enabled William to attend local private schools and the College of New Jersey (later Princeton). He took a B.A. in 1763 and an M.A. 3 years later.

The movie started out with the death of Joey Doyle, by the Mob members throwing him off the to of the building. What was their reason for killing him? I believe Joey Doyle was a witness of a Mob crime and the Mob was afraid her would talk to the police if investigated, so they did not take any chances and killed him. Do you think Edie Doyle few in love with Terry Malloy from the first time they walked together? Even though it was right after Edie’s brother died and she met Terry, I think she made it clear that she was into him, especially when he asked her if she remembers him and she said how could anyone forget that face. What was the reason for that detective to clime on top of the roof and have a chat with Terry Malloy? Even though the

The beginning of my ancestors coming to America, started in France with the Reverend James Boisseau in 1685. Politically in France at this time, King Louis XIV was making France the center of European culture. The would have been many scholars, artists and other great minds of the time in France. But in 1685, in an effort of increase religious unity, King Louis repelled Edict of Nantes, an act that granted Protestants extra rights. This action took away a lot of right from many people in France at the time. Along with many other Protestants and Orthodox Christians, they didn’t want to be suppressed in their rights because of their religion, so James Boisseau left for England. Arriving in England, James would have found a country in revolution,

Writing an excellent book, short story,or poem is an ability very few people posses : Nathaniel Hawthorne is someone who had this talent. Hawthorne's writing is mostly centered around romantic fiction, he has written a plethora of things but he is mostly remembered for his short stories and novels. Before divulging into his work, a reader should know where his writing comes from, his inspirations, originality and what some would call pure genius. The author, Nathaniel Hawthorne, is an individual whose work has been and should continue to be analyzed for years to come due to his unique twist on romantic fiction. Many of his works have casted a silhouette over America through his intricate stories and writing style that revealed the themes of psychology and human nature during the 19th century. Hawthorne’s ominous style makes his works into oddities compared to the other romantic fiction novels in his time. Many of his works, such as The Scarlet Letter, exemplifies the epitome of Hawthorne’s distinct outlook on the moralistic attitudes of

Our Time is one great example of an essay that exemplifies the use of different literary devices, which helps us as readers connect with him as a writer even better.

I believe that the three texts that I have studied contained moments of optimism and pessimism which in turn have shaped my opinion of the general vision and viewpoint. This alludes to the feelings and emotions portrayed through the omniscient camera in "The King's Speech", the morally inclined narrator Nick Caraway in "The Great Gatsby" and the protagonist in the novel "Foster". I was very intrigued to find out more about these societies and the vision the author/director hoped to convey.
