Tom Murphy Compare And Contrast

One summer my parents informed my brother Ben and I we were going on a trip to Yellowstone National Park. I had never been so excited for anything in my life. I had a passion and love for nature, and being that Yellowstone had some of the most beautiful and interesting geological features on Earth, I knew I would have a blast. They said we would be going in a few weeks, and I literally couldn’t wait. I kept asking questions upon questions, and finally, my dad just got annoyed. “Go research it, Juliette.” He said. “The internet will know more than I do.” I took his advice and went to research Yellowstone.

On the 2nd of February 1986, just before 10pm a 26-year-old nurse Anita Cobby was brutally dragged into a stolen HT Holden Kingswood while walking along a suburban street in Blacktown by five men whom later identified to be John Travers, Michael Murdoch and brothers Michael, Leslie and Gary Murphy. Cobby was savagely raped and tortured for hours while in the car, they also stole her money to buy petrol for the car. She was later dragged from the car and through a barbed wire fence and into a paddock where Travers slit her throat after an argument about her seeing their faces and knowing their name caused her to almost be decapitated causing Cobby to bled out. Her naked bloodied blood was left on a secluded cow paddock on Reen

Today was an exciting day, my family and I went on a trip to the Yellowstone National Park! I was shocked at the history of the park. The park has been around for almost 11,000 years. We had to take a plane because it is located almost in all of Wyoming, but does go into Montana and Idaho, so I got to visit three states. It is one of the United States well known parks and visited by millions, including myself. The tour guide was very helpful in giving us information about the park. The earliest visit recorded was back in the 1800s. The people of Montana did not want development of the land that lead to President Ulysses S. Grant to preserve the land and make it a park. The people refused to have mining and logging to destroy their land.

John Colter and Tom Murphy are very much alike, but different at the same time. They where both explores.

Patrick Murphy- Wants to win the election to the senate. Now, if he beats Sen. Rubio, he would have taken down two well-known Republicans. That would launch him to the top of the Democratic Party.

Emily Murphy was an accomplished and honorable leader who passionately swept the nation from the Great Depression and into the new era of women empowerment. She vigorously fought for basic rights women were deprived of- voting, a fair share of property etc. She was born on March 14, 1868 in Cookstown, Ontario into a family with a wealthy businessman and landowner for her father. Due to her private schooling education she was raised with a profuse thinking. In 1887, she married Arthur Murphy and gave birth to four children. When one of her children died from diphtheria in 1906, Murphy and her family moved to Edmonton, Alberta. While in Alberta, she became more intrigued and aware in social issues, widespread poverty,

Michael P. Murphy is considered by many to be the most successful and one of the greatest navy seals to ever live. Michael P. Murphy was born on May 7, 1976 in Smithtown, New York. Michael was raised in Patchogue and attended Saxton Middle School. He went to BUD/s in January 2001 and graduated with class 236.

There is an abundance of survival characteristics to choose from, some of which we may not even consider, and the individuals from this unit have shown many. I believe that Melinda Murphy and Cole Matthews showed determination to survive life threatening situations. Melinda fought breast cancer like a mercenary, and Cole Matthews strived to live through a severe bear mauling.

Jackson Hole is where settlers and pioneers went to discover new adventures and rediscover their inner spirit. Tucked away and cradled by the beautiful Tetons, and neighbored by a National Elk Refuge, Grand Targee national park, and Yellowstone national park. Jackson Hole, Wyoming is a popular destination. Well known for its excellent skiing, camping, and wildlife it truly is a paradise for the outdoorsman or even anyone who would like to escape the city.

I believe that before we are able to compare and contrast the three men who have claimed ownership over Tom, we must examine each one individually, and then compare and contrast their ideologies to those that were typical of southern men at the time. Tom, at first is under the Control of Arthur Shelby, a farmer in Kentucky. Tom is eventually sold to Haley, a slave trader who in turn sells Tom to Augustine St. Clare in New Orleans. Finally, after the death of St. Clare, Tom is once again, and finally sold to Simon Legree, a Louisiana plantation owner.

Tom Murphy is a modern day explorer who also traveled Yellow Stone National park alone two hundred years after John Colter did Tom Murphy traveled the same area as John Colter did.

Chief Murphy. I always thought he would be the kind of chief that would arrest a person for what they did not for who they are. He arrested a Mexican man a few days ago because he assumed that he entered the country illegally. Now the poor man is pressing charges on the chief for false accusations and physical abuse.

John Colter and Tom Murphy are two very different people. Although, they did almost the same thing. They both travelled through Yellowstone, but Colter travelled with Lewis and Clarke for part of it and Murphy travelled alone with only a bag of supplies with no entertainment. Colter didn’t have much, Murphy had a whole bag of things made from modern material.

My first impression of exploring the Timpanogos Cave National Monument was that it could possibly be a very strenuous journey. The reason I believe this is because at the very first stop there were warnings about bringing water and also warnings that one must stay on the trail at all times. Also I learned that it is prohibited to being any animals, one cannot run on the trail, you can’t throw rocks, and there are no strollers, wheelchairs, or wheeled vehicles allowed on the trail. Although these rules may seem a little bit harsh I am sure that they are only in place for the safety of the guests visiting.

Personally, when I view this picture, it is shocking to me. When I see such a great deal of people living in one place it makes me think about how their lives have to be so different from mine. In Murphy, our population of less than 2,000 people doesn't even compare to the place circled on the map. Here we have space and room to breathe, where as, there they can't even drive without almost hitting somebody. In that area there are high poverty rates, high need for food, low sanitation, and extremely close housing in most cases. In Murphy, we have lower poverty rates,less of a need for food, higher sanitation, and spread out housing. Our lives here, in Murphy, are privileged to say the least.
