For instance, in Life of Pi, Pi describes Richard Parker as so in one situation, “I saw a sight that will stay with me for the rest of my

Western Civilization The Witch-Figure and the Sabbat Robin Briggs Today, there remains a relic of the European witch-hunts predominant at this time of year. Halloween decorations are flooded with depictions of tall thin hats, and haggard old women flying on broomsticks. For a time period of approximately the middle fifteenth century to sometime into the eighteenth century witches were thought to be a serious threat to the community. Skeptical Roman authorities finally helped put an end to the continued

A drone is an unmanned aircraft, it is more formally known as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), it is a flying robot that can be remotely controlled. Citizens in LA met this decision with protests arguing that drones can be used for unwarranted surveillance and some even fear that drones will become weaponized and start patrolling the skies. Flying robots monitoring the skies is clear example of dystopian future and may remind us of Orwell's 1984 but, advocates say that the

Since Christopher Columbus’s discovery of the disoriented magnetic compass off the South-Eastern coast of the United States, more than 1000 people have vanished into what is called The Bermuda Triangle. For centuries, many have reasoned with their fears of the unknown only to coin it a mythical second name, The Devil’s triangle. B.

While Adam was flying the B-29 he almost got shot down, he was getting shot at by a zero, but the zero got shot down from the turrets on the plane. Josh was getting scared because he thought that it was smoking and they were going to die. “get a hold of yourself we are

connection I found was to the essay "The Great Forgetting". "The Great Forgetting" was about how relying on automation systems will cause people to lose the skills to properly use it in case of a malfunction, and people rely too heavily on it. For example, flying a plane on autopilot is great and advances technology, but if something goes wrong, the pilot needs to know how to manually fly the plane to a safe landing. This is like the essay "Learning How to Die in the Anthropocene" because in both of these

p.91). It is indeed of great significance for Alice to boldly assert her right to think. The child not only is aware that she has a right to think, but also a right to speak out what she thinks. In the court scene, when the all pack of cards come flying at her, Alice gives “a little scream, half of fright and half of anger, and tried to beat them off, and found herself lying on the bank, with her head in the lap of her sister” (Carroll, 1993, p.121). Threatened with execution, Alice boldly shows

Being with him had the potential to do so much harm, yet she kept responding to his messages. “What’s you biggest fear?” “Getting injured. I’m not sure what I’ll do if my hockey career ends before I’m ready. Every time a guy goes down it’s a reminder how close I am to having my dream taken

The 1950s was a chaotic time for the United States. China had just fallen to communist forces, Russia was in an arms race, and national security was at an all-time high. Accusations were flying against anyone thought to be a security risk, and throughout it all, Joseph McCarthy trumped the blame card more than anyone else. In The Crucible, Arthur Miller alludes to this period of time by using Abigail Williams to represent Joseph McCarthy and by using the General Court of Salem to represent the
