While reading The Stranger I noticed that traits that Albert Camus character depicts in the book are closely related to the theories of Sigmund Freud on moral human behavior. Albert Camus portrays his character of Meursault as a numb, emotionless person that seems to mindlessly play out his role in society, acting in a manner that he sees as the way he’s supposed to act, always living in the moment with his instincts driving him, and if the right circumstance presents itself the primal deep seeded animal will come out. I believe that most of the character’s traits fall under Freud’s notion of the Id and Ego mental apparatus, and don’t believe that his idea of the super-ego is represented in this book.

I believe that the reason James Riley wrote the book Story Thieves was to teach a lesson. This lesson was that no matter what you think may happen, there are always more consequences than you think there are. For example, in the first few chapters in the book, Bethany believes that bringing Owen into the sixth Kiel Gnomenfoot book will keep him quiet and nothing will happen. Instead, Owen changes the story after it ends, so the Magister and Kiel come into the real world, wreaking havoc everywhere they go. Second of all, when Bethany learns the location spell, she assumes that she will be able to use the spell to find her long lost father. However, when her world is in danger, she uses the spell to find someone that they need to help her and

The Stranger The Stranger exhibits a society that has confined itself with a specific set of social standards that dictate the manner in which people are supposed to act. This ideology determines the level of morality, and how much emphasis should placed on following this certain "ethical" structure. Albert Camus's main character, Meursault, is depicted as a nonconformist that is unwilling to play society's game. Through Meursault's failure to comply with society's values and conform to the norm, he is rejected and also condemned to death by society.

What is the point of this experiment, and how do you make it? Well, this experiment is ment to teach people how to design a safe car that would prevent the egg from cracking if full on collision happened. The little egg carrier would be a vehicle in a life-like scale. This experiment gets you to make three different cars, where each car would be focused on a certain aspect in safety. In my experiment, I would have one car focus on bumpers. My next car would focus on the seat, or the cage. And my last

Alright, so first and foremost we have to look at every possible suspect. I believe that our options are (in rough order of probability):

My fourth game went well. I won it, so that meant I was 3-1-0. Dan had printed a standings sheet out, and he asked if anyone wanted to see it. I went up to him and asked to see the sheet. Before Dan showed me the list, he said, “You're going to jinx yourself.” I went through and looked at it. On the sheet, it said I was in fourth place. That means I would make it to the semifinals. Just my luck though, I lost my fifth game. I played a guy by the name of Elick. He was flying a similar list to mine. I targeted his Kavil, and his other ships came to my side. After I lost, my hopes of victory had gone down. The only way for me to get into the final 4 is to have everyone above me lose. But I was sure that wouldn't happen.

In many traditional folklores, trickster characters are portrayed as being animals or other nonhuman entities; for example, Coyote in Native American tales, Br’er Rabbit in African American stories, or the devil in Blues legends. However, nowadays with an endless supply of movies and television series, while there are still animal and nonhuman tricksters, the trickster character can be commonly found being portrayed by mere men. Nonetheless, animal or man, these tricksters all encompass the same signifying traits, “He defies authority. He goes against the rules. But he does it in a way that’s often lovable, and that often results in good things for the culture at large,” (Sutherland). One of these more recent tricksters being portrayed by a man on television is the character Neal Caffrey of the program White Collar. Neal is an ex-convict, ex-con artist more specifically, who was incarcerated and instead of serving time in prison is working with the FBI as an insider on cases. First of all, he is a trickster because he was, and very might well still be a conman. Second of all, he is extremely cunning and can use his words to manipulate people and

the coyote relies on his own wits. The coyote is always looking for the short

We were on last round out of I think nine, and I think we had maybe one two to three rounds. So in the round we were facing Paola’s team. Towards the end of the round, the score was about one hundred ten to twenty. My team buzzed in, and did something wrong. I’m not sure what we did, but it was wrong, and their team captain challenged it. He was the one who was answering a lot of the questions as well. Because of the challenge, we got our points taken away, and the other team got a question that only they could answer, and they got it right. After that meet, I decided that the next year I was finally going to try in scholar’s bowl a lot more.

I hope that everything is going well for you and your new place. I have realized that it has been a few months since I have seen you, and I would like you to know that it is not your fault. We have been friends for almost seven years now and I have began to see some changes in our friendship. You have a hard time accepting the truth and advice from others.
