The Everlast “Boxing Makes You Bigger” commercial seems to be about boxing but is really about being a better person. This becomes more evident as the commercial progresses. The beginning focuses on boxing itself. The main character, the boxer, is seen practicing relentlessly and as a result, he wins his matches. One could attribute that to an advertising technique. The company is promoting its products by showing victorious people using them. However, most effective commercials progress a story

The grass is always greener on the other side; the things you dismiss in your life, give little thought towards, or complain about may be what others envy. In Christy Brown’s memoir, my left foot, Brown is born with Cerebral Palsy, a condition that alters his physical growth, leaving him in a helpless state that requires aid throughout his entire life. In Brown’s life, he will physically make significant improvements and face obstacles that he is forced to coincide with in order to further the success

I don’t think much, I don’t even look at the postage stamp, I just start to tear through the envelope like I would for any other piece of mail. What I find is interesting, however. I thought it was a joke at first, but no, the card really said “Sheridan High School Reunion!”. Had it really been 25 years? I swear I had just gotten back from from there after the Collins wedding–all the hassle

The sound of gun fire echoed across the central plains like deafening crashes of thunder. The rich green grass was slowly turning red with blood, as Native Americans and the United states army were waging war at the battle of the Little Big Horn. Many people know that the Native Americans were victorious over the United states army, which was under the command of General George Custer, but few people know that Custer’s long journey to the Little Big Horn started in the heart of North Dakota, at Fort

The Battle of Little Bighorn, also known as the Battle of Greasy Grass, was not a significant battle when comparing death count, but it was a big turning point in the course of American History. George Custer was a widely respected military leader who had rarely lost a battle up until that point. It was a shock to the white population that an Indian tribe had that much power and could beat such a powerful army with such advanced military tactics. George Armstrong Custer’s arrogance and the already

At the end of the Civil War, two great men found themselves in a bind. Robert E. Lee, commander of the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia, had a slew of wounded and malnourished soldiers, and nothing to feed them. Ulysses S. Grant, commander of the Union Army, had resources to spare and extended an offer of surrender in exchange for those rations. Lee accepted, and therefore forfeit the Civil War to the Union Army. Throughout their four year struggle for victory, the two men underwent many trials

No matter how much something can differ some characteristics are shared. As strange as it sounds it’s very true, both Grant and Lee are two different yet similar people. As these two fights for what they believe in, though their beliefs are different they share some qualities. Ulysses S. Grant wanted the nation to expand and look forward towards the future. Robert E. Lee thought that an old aristocratic way of life was the better choice and that it can survive and dominant in American life.

Murtagh and Huck Finn In great works of literature many of the same traits and characteristics appear in the main characters. Adventure books where you find Heroes and villains in a constant struggle to thwart the others efforts are where you could notice the reoccurring traits the most. Heroes are often very similar, demonstrating similar strengths and weaknesses. I compare Huckleberry Finn, to Murtagh of the Inheritance series. Although Murtagh is not the main protagonist, he is most certainly
