He wrote a number of other books of course, including a story called "Ninety-Three." In the storyline of Ninety-Threewe hears of a ship caught in a dangerous storm. At the height of the storm the frightened sailors heard a horrible crashing noise below the deck and they knew instantly that the noise came from a cannon, part of the ship's cargo, that had broken

In this section I will be detailing and comparing the relationships between China-Japan, China-Australia, and China-Venezuela. I am first going to start with the relationship between China and Japan. I will begin with the time frame between the years of 1949-1969. During this time, China sees Japan as a threat, which is not surprising because of Japan’s assault against China in the 1890s to 1920s, Japans brutal occupation of China in the 1930s and 1940s and Japan’s role in America’s containment strategy

East Cooper Community Outreach The non-profit I have chosen for my leadership project is the East Cooper Community Outreach program. This program is a non-profit organization that was founded in 1989 to assist victims after Hurricane Hugo. East Cooper Community Outreach, also known as ECCO, offers assistance to the numerous people in Mount Pleasant living at the poverty level, also known as the “working poor.” ECCO is essential to the community and we will learn about this organization’s genesis

One of the main purposes of our judicial system is to produce fair results. This way the defendant is not convicted for something that they did not do. Although this is supposed to be the case, our society is set up in a way where the rich people have more of an advantage when it comes down to being provided with a lawyer than the poor.
