Nathan Lane

One Tree Hill “There are always stereotypes in high school. People are placed into groups. You’re a jock, you’re a cheerleader, you’re a freak, you’re into the drama department. I had a lot of trouble fitting into those groups when I was in high school because I wanted to be a part of all of them. One Tree Hill represents people who are multidimensional and who like more than one thing.” Hilarie Burton, who plays Peyton Sawyer, says it perfectly herself. One Tree Hill shows diversity among all.

Nathan Hale was born in Coventry, Connecticut, in 1755 to Richard Hale and Elizabeth Strong, his parents. In 1768, when he was fourteen years old, he was sent to Yale College with his brother, Enoch. Nathan was a classmate of a patriot spy. His name was Benjamin Tallmadge. Nathan graduated with first-class honors at the age of 18 and became a teacher. He was the first in East Haddam and later in New London. After the Revolutionary War began, he joined a Connecticut militia and was elected first lieutenant

The Culper Ring was a spy ring created by American Major Benjamin Tallmadge under command from General George Washington in 1778 during British occupation of New York City at the peak of the American Revolutionary War. The "Culper" name was given by Washington who created it from Culpeper County, Virginia. The two main people in the Ring, Abraham Woodhull and Robert Townsend, used "Samuel Culper, Sr." and "Samuel Culper, Jr.", as code names. Tallmadge was in direct control of the Ring but Washington

Heroes: Grappling With Power With the proliferation of supernatural television shows and movies, I expected Heroes to be more of the same. It is not. Heroes offers a unique twist on the classic superhero tale through its wide variety of characters, its concise plot, its special effects, and its wise use of tone. Mohinder Suresh, who functions as the series’ narrator, teaches genetic theory in a small, stuffy classroom to bored college students in India. As the class ends, a colleague pulls Mohinder

This paper examines Joseph Needham’s impact on the historiography of Chinese Science and Technology (S&T), arguing that his great achievements were marred by an East/West comparative approach, and that subsequent historians have only partly overcome these restrictions. His multi-volume Science and Civilization in China (1954-ongoing) single handedly thrust China into the Western-dominated historiography. Organized along the disciplinary lines of modern science, Needham sought to document every scientific

On occasion when watching a show or movie or when reading a book we can come across characters to whom we can easily relate. For this assignment we were asked to do just that and find characters with whom we felt we shared characteristics that could be used to describe ourselves. The three fictional characters that I believe most represent my personality are Mal Reynolds from the show firefly and the movie Serenity for his loyalty and courage, Jack Sparrow for his silliness and free-spirited nature

The show, One Tree Hill, has many characters with different types of personalities. One in particular, Nathan Scott, known as the best basketball player in his High School, is known to be a popular jock-type guy, selfish and rude. He wants to become the best basketball player and beat his dad, Dan Scott, one day. Throughout the show, Nathan Scott makes many different mistakes but he gets to know other characters that help him to grow from the person he once was. Even though he was once self-conceited

“It’s been decided,” Taylor hissed with a clenched jaw, “Now hurry up, we’re almost inside.” “Ignoring it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. The village was my home.” “No it wasn’t and they weren’t your family. We are,” he snapped, glaring at her, “And speak no more of it, or I will tell Mother.” Lorenna’s back tensed as if that woman didn’t try to beat that very idea out of her head over the past ten years. “Claire…” “Be quiet Mary,” Lorenna scolded, pushing her off, refusing to look at either of them

Going to the park always gave Rick Castle a chance to think while he watched Alexis play. The first times he would come with her, he didn't part from her not for a second, not wanting to miss the any of the fun- and maybe to keep an eye on her too-. However, recently she had started to demand more independence, stating it was silly for her to play with other kids if her father was following her too. It was a bittersweet feeling for him, admiring his kid,but also knowing the little things that marked

Homeward Bound Travelling has always been in my blood. Before I was born, my Mum worked as a flight attendant and worked while she was pregnant. I was travelling as a foetus! However, after giving birth to me and reaching middle age, Mum had an existential crisis. She decided that even after working for 16 years as a flight attendant, she hadn’t travelled enough and wanted to see the whole world. While I wasn’t exactly thrilled at the idea of giving up on school, friends and 7-year-old things for
