The serpent of evil lured them to the tree of knowledge, however, and its fruit proved too much of a temptation. With a bite, their "eyes... were opened," and the course of their lives, and the lives of mankind, were changed (Gen. 6-7, 22). Whether or not one accepts the Christian concept of creation, countless works of art are patterned

Lynyrd Skynryd wrote this song in response to Neil Young’s song “Southern Man” which was written with the belief that all southern states were still very much into racism and put most the blame on the state of Alabama. “Sweet Home Alabama” contains one verse in response to Young that through the turmoil there is still a great sense of southern pride. “Southern Man” and “Sweet Home Alabama” gives the impression of a feud of sorts between Skynyrd and Young; they were actually big fans of each other and

“Know thy self, know thy enemy. A thousand battles, a thousand victories.” – Sun Tzu. A quote meaningless to an essay analyzing Scott Pilgrim VS. The World (Edgar Wright, 2010). This attempt at humor is like the humor within Scott Pilgrim VS. The World, and despite being used frequently never truly dulls throughout the film’s progression. Yet the biggest kicker for the film is the originality, not settling for typical special effects and soundtracks. Instead leaning in favor to create an exceedingly

You can hear him from the corridor. Neil Young is kicked back on a lounge chair in the focal point of his suite at New York 's Carlyle Hotel one late morning, cutting without end at the series of his acoustic guitar. His wet hair is brushed back and he 's wearing a T-shirt that says "Earth," with pants and shoes. He puts his beat-up 1940s Martin – past proprietor: Hank Williams – by him on the sofa.

A small group passes by the protagonist Thomas, who hands one begging girl a crumpled bill from the back seat of his

Giants and Angels roam the pages of Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s stories, “A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings”, and “The Handsomest Drowned Man In The World”, creating the perfect scene for magical realism. Many of the elements within these stories coincide with each other; this has everything to do with the overall component of magical realism, which binds together similarities and sets apart differences. The theme of each story can be found within the other and can stand by itself to represent the

Though the perspective of the story is third person omniscient initially, it is still evident that we are viewing the story through a child’s lens. The young protagonist skips “lightly from hen house to pigpen to smokehouse” showing that she is happy, excited even, to enjoy the natural setting weaved around her.

Kaze No Denwa It is April 11, 2011, and one month has passed since the great Japanese tsunami splintered the island. In a small coastal village, a man parks his car at a distance and walks towards the only object in a large field: Kaze No Denwa, the “Phone of the Wind.” Tears begin to well in his eyes as he feels the gentle breeze wash over him.
