...Personal Narrative Most people’s goal for a bible camp is not to get in trouble ,but on the other hand I am not like most people. I was not actually planning on getting in trouble ,but if you would have seen my tribe you would understand how we were able to get in trouble and still have much fun. Most grades had a huge spread out from girls in 6th grade to 9th grade. For us though we had about all 9th graders so we were all very wild and fun. Well it was the third day of camp and we were suppose to be having an overnight in the woods ,but since it was raining like crazy we could not. The two Maras, Olivia, Shelby ,and I still made fun out of the rain including making a slip and slide with only the ground and ourselves. We were...

...more enthusiastic about that day then I was until I realize “today is deer hunting day!” I suddenly jump for joy until my dad tells me to be quieter because everyone is asleep. Whoops… I think to myself as I start layering up on clothes. My dad warned me yesterday that it would be cold which I realized but didn't know until I stepped outside. Once I get back in the house I grab a package of fruit snacks and powerade and head to the truck. On the way there I ask, “do you think were going to get a deer?” He replies “ I hope so.” Then that gets me thinking, I wonder if...

...feeding chuckle or a calm quack. As the ducks got in range, they cupped their wings to slow themselves down for landing; when the back peddling began I called the shot. Molly jolted out of the blind into the water to pick up our harvest, knowing there would be a treat waiting for her when she returned to the blind. She had to make three trips to collect the birds, but once she got back, she shook the cold water off and waited for her reward. The last duck Molly retuned with was the most important. After I took the fully mature greenhead from Molly’s mouth, my eyes lit up and the blind erupted with excitement as we celebrated our accomplishment of bagging a banded mallard. A banded duck to a duck hunter is equivalent to a monster buck to a deer hunter. The sky was covered with waterfowl of all kinds, especially the prized drake mallard. The plumage of their green heads glimmered in the light of the morning sun. The ducks steadily filled the hole for their final flight. We continued shooting and filling our stringers full of ducks until we reached our limit. My fellow hunters and I were beyond excited over the day’s harvest. After we all calmed down, we picked up our decoys, and began making our way back to the boat ramp. As we motored along, all we could talk about was tomorrow’s hunt; hoping we would be fortunate enough to have another great day, but all the while knowing that hunts like today are few and far between. The weather was great, the ducks co-operated, and Molly did...

We someone yelling,”Who’s eating my roadkill!” It ended up being a man named Mr.Fogle,he was pretty cool, we explained our story to him and he understood everything. He told us his story about how he used to be an sandwitch companies pitch ma until he got fired and how now he lives in a dumpster. Tinsel went to shake his hand but, as soon as he grabbed tinsels hand he threw him into the dumpster and yelled,”I'm going to you and your sister's gonna make you fat ahhaha” He turns to me “Fallow me were going to go get more roadkill.” He takes me to a road where there is a lot of dead animals. I looked to my left then right,I see a semi coming up in the distance. I tell Mr.Fogle,”Can you grab this deer it’s too heavy and i’m pretty sure it can make Tinsel gain ten or fifteen pounds.” My Plan worked I tricked him, as he was dragging it I run to the curb of the road, then in a quick motion the semi hits him and he dies. I ran as fast as I can back to Tinsel when I reach the garbage can I break the lock with a brick and he springs out crying. I tell him all what happened he laughed a little, we started looking for a police officer we find one and we tell him everything.“Mr.Fogle,Jared Fogle he’s been wanted for 3 years dead ,and you guys ended up tricking him into stepping in front of a semi,damn you kids have guts. Well might as well give you the reward come on to the station with me” he said. The police station is clean it was different...

...in front of us a deer started trotting our way on the same trail. I froze as my heart felt as heavy as a brick. It smelt like a cold autumn day. The leaves were crunchy and the air was crisp and cool. We had about 100 yards to get to my stand and I heard a deer blow at us. Whoosh! Whoosh! I knew then that some deer in the area would know we were there. I climbed in my tree stand and I saw a doe in the corn field that I was sitting on. I ranged the deer with my range...

...There are probably people out there that think hunters can just go out in the woods and kill any amount of deer or animal at any time but that isn't true whatsoever. Licking County is classified as a three deer county and based on the rules from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (2017) “No more than three deer may be taken from a three deer county during the 2017-2018 deer hunting season” (Para 4). Hunters are not allowed to hunt in the night hours when it is dark they have to hunt from sunrise to sunset. In some counties, antlerless permits are able to be purchased however in licking county an antlerless permit cannot be purchased. For those who don't know an antlerless permit as stated by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (2017) “Antlerless deer permit means: antlerless deer permit, youth antlerless deer permit, senior antlerless deer permit, free disabled veteran antlerless deer permit, or a free senior antlerless deer permit” (para 3). Here in Licking County, we are only an either-sex deer permit county which means we can buy three permits that can be used to tag either a buck or a doe. As I stated there are many rules and regulations that restrict a hunter when he...

...Week 7 (Assignment 6) The Way to a Good Deer English November 22, 2011 Deer hunting is a very demanding hobby. The one thing that everyone must keep in mind when hunting is your safety and the safety of others. The reason for this is that you are using a weapon that can cause serious harm to you or someone, but this is not what this essay is about. I want everyone to actually learn what it takes to be a hunter. Being a hunter takes skill and understanding how deer sense things. The first thing that comes to everyone’s mind when thinking about hunting is killing Bambie. This is not the way I think, because of how I was raised. I took up hunting at an early age. I would always go with my father. So, here is what I have learned about hunting deer. You, as a hunter have got to know where the deer are. This is the easy part. Just find some good land with a water source, and good food that they eat i.e. acorns, wild persimmons trees, apples trees, corn, clover, and winter rye. Scout the land after locating these, to see if you can find there bedding areas. Finding the bedding area is the hard part. Deer in general will bed down in areas where they feel protected. Like in open areas surrounded by thick brush, or in low lying areas. After finding these good spots look for trails leading to their food, and water sources. These trails are what will make you or break you when it comes time to kill that big buck. The trail usually will lead to natural pinch points in the land. This...

...was up making breakfast. “What’s for breakfast?” “Egg sandwiches and bacon your favorite.” answered my mom. As I shoved down my favorite breakfast, my dad yelled from his room. “Matt let’s go.” So I quickly finished my plate and I threw into the dishwasher and I was off for the door. I couldn’t see a thing walking out to the garage. I tried finding my boots but my dad already had them in his hand. I hurried to get my boots on and when I got into the truck I could barely breathe. “Where are we going to hunt at dad?” I asked. But as usual my dad answered back. “I don’t know Matt it’s totally up to you.” “But dad you know where the deer are and I don’t.” I answered back. Dad groaned “I don’t know Matt probably at your Uncle Tim’s house down the road.” I loved hunting at his place because it’s so open and there have been huge deer there this year. “OK…” I answered back in my smooth voice. We pulled up to Tim’s house and he was outside feeding the chickens. “Morning Tim.” Dad said. “Morning boys, are you boys going to hunt here this morning?” We both nodded our heads. Then dad began to talk. “Have you been seeing anything lately?” Tim thought for a good 5 minutes. Then he said in his aha voice “Yea,...

...the area that brought logs from Saginaw to Alma. Due to the other houses around this one being about the same, others built theirs in his likeness, or media. This house was one of the first built in the city and served as a home for the Wright Family. It was constructed by Detroit Architecture Firm and is still a very important house for the community. This house struck my eye for a few reasons. It’s a very large structure that is one of the oldest houses in Alma and that I am very interested in the Victorian style houses. My Home Painting It was a very difficult task to find an actual piece of artwork in my house that was not from my daughter’s crayons. I did however find a small box that has a picture of deer and wildlife on the top. I have used this box for years and never really “looked” at it. I looked at the bottom of the box and found that the name of picture was, “The Classic by Evans”, 1966....

...Husbandry Guidelines For Chital or Spotted deer (Mammalia: Cervidae) Date of Preparation: Western Sydney Institute of TAFE, Richmond Course Name and Number: Captive animals, RVU30204 Lecturer: Graeme Phipps, JackiSalkeld, Brad Walker, Axis Axis Compiler: Holly Moran DISCLAIMER 2 OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY RISKS Chital deer are a flighty animal and need plenty of room to run, feel safe and graze (or mimic) as they do in the wild. If chital deer to not have this room they will be very edgy and will cause problems for keepers. That will then create Occupational health and safety issues with regards to being in the enclosure with them. Give them plenty of room as they may kick but will most likely take off with the herd and become skittish. This is when a escape is most likely. Make sure all fencing is at correct height and that deer have a safe area to retreat too. When approaching deer do so in a quiet manner with no sudden moves but make sure they know you are coming. Daily cleaning must be done to clear fesses to unsure a clean enclosure and workplace. Cleaning routines should be carried out with gloves. Hands must also be washed when finished. A hazpac assessment should be carried out on any possible hazards. Keeper entrances must be at standing height. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1 2 INTRODUCTION............................................................................................................................... 7 TAXONOMY .................

...hunting for deer with her father, father friend (Charlie), and fathers’ friends’ son (Mac). Going to the woods where they are going hunting for deer, Mac takes jabs at Andy about how small she is and how she cannot shoot because she is a girl. Her father sticks up for her and says that she can shoot and that she even has something about her that attracts animals to her so that is good for them. Fast forward towards the end of the story, Andy hears a deer and is given the opportunity to shoot it. Andy then has an internal conflict about whether or not to shoot the deer but does so anyway because of the pressure being out on her and that is where the rite of passage begins. The deer is shot square in the chest by Andy but does not die and runs off immediately and that is where Andy’s’ guilt and regret set in. Later at the campsite she see’s the deer she shot while everyone is sleeping and proceeds to walk up to the deer and touch it where she had shot it in the chest and she feels even worse. Andy doest tell anyone about seeing the deer and just goes back to bed. Later in the day, Andy and the rest go hunting for the deer she had shot the previous day. They find it dead in the woods and Andy’s father takes out his knife and exposed the deer’s underside and Andy takes off running away and that is where the rite of passage came full circle. This rite of passage changed Andy because she was trying to be one of the guys but after actually shooting and killing a deer,...

...Alexandra Rike Judith Celentano DATE \@ "MMMM d, y" January 28, 2015 Gaining Faith The bell is close to ringing and releasing me for the rest of the day from the most hated place on earth…school. However, today, I wouldn’t mind staying over a few extra minutes to avoid the intense quiz session that is about to take place in my Memi’s car. Last night, I heard my mom on the phone with my Memi telling her all about my new boyfriend, and I’m sure she is just chomping at the bit to know everything about him. I already know what her first question is going to be. “Does he have Jesus in his heart?” I never understood why that was such a big deal to her until now. Throughout my life, my Memi was constantly lecturing my parents for not taking me to church as much as they should, and for not teaching me all about the Bible at a young age. I never understood why she was so obsessed and driven to get me interested in church. I always thought that I would start going to church once I felt like I knew what everyone was talking about, once I could fully understand everything and the hidden meanings. I didn’t think there was a reason for me to go to church until I was older. However, I think that when something major happens and leaves an impact on your life, there is one clear place to run to…God. Things changed for me. Now, I desperately want the bell to ring so that I can go take care of my Memi. I want to be there for her the way she was always there for me, making me smarter...

...This past week, the same day I photographed the Brown Creepers in my last post, I was making the trip home after work, when my good karma finally paid off. I was starting to change lanes to turn when I saw this on the roadside. [singlepic id=1093 w=450] I often have trouble distinguishing a Cooper's Hawk from a Sharp-shinned without putting some work into it, but this one was large enough to remove any doubt. This was a Cooper's and likely a female since they are larger than males. And this was a large Cooper's. Still running 70 mph, I couldn't stop in time to pull over. That meant turning around, driving a mile back and making another pass. I was ready this time, stopping at a distance, shooting the photo above before moving closer. This was the first Cooper's I'd ever "worked," so I didn't have any idea what to expect. Do they sit and let you approach or are they like Red-tails, so skittish that it seems they bail if you so much as think of pulling over. The road was busy, including too many 18-wheelers for my comfort, so I had to wait for an opening to creep down the shoulder to get closer. Plus, there's a Highway Patrol office a half mile back towards town and the last thing I needed was a trooper getting after me for driving on the shoulder. Close enough to shoot through the passenger window, I killed the engine and stopped. I had the camera halfway up and the hawk seemed like she was going to stay put. But as she appeared in the viewfinder and the autofocus engaged...

...work attempts to distill the vile essence of bigotry and transform it into consciousness. One has had to tolerate the ageism, racism and the entire ism that manifest itself into feelings that an artist grasp and utilize to be the creator of this sculpture and more like its storytelling figures have to display. Rouse, as it is called, is very provocative. It is a presentation of a nude figure standing amidst a large assemblage of deer antlers and cradles overhead another nude figure resting in deer antlers. Its combination of wood, bronze, paper and antlers creates a mind altering experience upon sight. In deciphering just the word alone and applying it internally as well as an external component, one simply has to know its word origin. Rouse: awaken from consciousness; activate; stimulate; incite; instigate; provoke someone’s anger or action; hunt; force; or drive out; displace or chase away very well imposes and defines a journey a person may want to embark upon. The sculptor ROUSE is a life-sized sculptor of a light-skinned woman, bound and in fetal position placed on a bed of antlers. She appears somewhat transparent. The reclining figure is molded from rice paper and glue, thus reinforcing a fragile nature. Perhaps this is the way the artist would like you to see her metamorphosing into another complete individual. She could be...
