The Perfect Storm by Sebastian Junger is an account of an immense storm and its destructive path through the North Atlantic. In late October of 1991, crews of several different fishing ships left their port for their final haul.

The system, was said to be a “perfect storm” because all of the elements were just right to create

The most recent Post Partum case that has rightfully caused a media frenzy is the Andrea Yates case. Yates was the mother of five young children. This past summer Yates held each of her children in a bath tub full of water until their death. Yates had PPD. Post Partum depression causes a new mother to become depressed to a severe extent

During the Middle Ages, Courtly love was a code which prescribed the conduct between a lady and her lover (Britannica). The relationship of courtly love was very much like the feudal relationship between a knight and his liege. The lover serves his beloved, in the manner a servant would. He owes his devotion and allegiance to her, and she inspires him to perform noble acts of valor (Schwartz). Capellanus writes, in The Art of Courtly Love, “A true lover considers nothing good except what he thinks

In this reflective essay of “The Pearl”, my thesis statement is: “Juana urged Kino to throw the pearl away, but due to greed, Kino refuses.” The pearl in this story symbolizes evil and greed, and it has transformed Kino’s personality. At first I thought that Kino would throw the pearl away when he realized that he was changing after he hit his wife, but he didn’t due to the greediness that the pearl had brought him. Compared to Kino, Juana’s personality does not transform to the extent that Kino’s

As Eric Burdon stated: “Inside each of us, there is a seed of both good and evil.” Even though one may have a history for crime, or in general just being an evil person, they may have good reasons for it. In the book The Demon King by Cinda Williams Chima, the differences between the clans people and wizards clash. Han “Cuffs” Alister had a history for being a thief, and part of a gang. The “Cuffs” in his name was meant for the silver cuffs he wore on his wrists that never came off. He stole food

An Indigenous girls basketball team from northern Manitoba scored a slam dunk after four months of fundraising efforts enabled them to practice with a Toronto Raptor and play in a Toronto basketball tournament. This is an opportunity that players from the remote First Nation’s community of God’s Lake Narrows just don’t get, said the team’s coach Kishma Davidson. “It’s going to show them that dreams do come true and it’s also going to show them that determination does work and working hard and having

George, is that you? It isn't unusual for this specific fiend to be summoned—from depleting Halloween party tricks in relinquished shelters to more authentic rituals in the woods—yet it needs to concede that this is the first time it's ever been called forward from its domain, down beneath the earth, into a claustrophobic lounge showered in dull pink sparkles shining from the old glass lights and an abundance of wide-eyed, frightening vintage porcelain dolls. Going with those peculiarities are tea

The purpose of this drawing is to show how the tendency of human impulse towards savagery will always be prominent within us. There are simply ideals and rules in civilization that are designed to contain and minimize it. Therefore, when these restrictions are lifted or discarded, savagery will take over causing destruction within and the inevitable loss of humanity. This is prominently represented by Jack, who is dressed in his school uniform clean and presentable, while standing on the beach confined
