...What is Vietnam? Like the question, my answer is succinct: Vietnam is the Sleeping Beauty. You will find out why, just let the story begin. 1. Beauty Once upon a time, there formed in the Southeast Asia, a little but extremely beautiful Princess called Vietnam. Mother Nature was excessively fond of her and gave her the most wonderful gifts that make her a desirable beauty. Indeed, she was placed in a favorable geographic position alongside 3000 km spectacular coastlines and busy sea lanes which open many opportunities to develop tourism and international trading. She has plenty of stunning landscape and picturesque destinations, to name but a few: Saigon (the Pearl of the Far East), Ha Long Bay (world natural heritage), Son Doong Cave (World’s Largest Cave). Plus, Vietnam was generously given a wide variety of natural resources, e.g. minerals, fertile soil, diversified ecosystem… In addition to natural endowments, Vietnam has resourceful human capital: a 90-million population with favorable demographic structure. The working-age population is accounted for more than a half of the whole.

...In the National Gallery ”In the National Gallery” is a short story by Doris Lessing form 2007. The themes in the story are that older are more patient than younger, a person can be attracted by another without showing it, and you must follow the time otherwise it can become ugly. The narrator is first person point of view “She was the boss girl in this group, even if nit officially a head girl or monitor” (page 3, line 43). The narrator has an objective sight, but the narrator reflects and interprets what he sees. Therefore gets the reader a subjective view on the text. Because it is his thoughts we read. “Her eyes focused, on the great brilliant horse, so close, towering there on the golden canvas, on his hind legs.” (page 4, line 102) The French girl did not say anything about the horse; therefore can the narrator not tell what the French girl thinks about the horse. We only get the narrator thoughts therefore the narrator becomes unreliable. Strubbs horse is a symbol of the older man. “But then a man sat down, on the other side of the bench’s arm and he leaned forward, elbows on knees, and locked hard at the horse” (Page 1, Line 19). Before had the horse an important role in the society. Every great leader in history has sat on a horseback, because it was a strong, powerful, and fast. Now we only use the horse as a hobby. When the older man was young he was a strong and marvellous man. He cut pick up a sixteen-year-old girl when he just where twelve years old. ”She...

The Nitrogen cycle is a cycle where nitrogen through decaying vegetation, excrement and carcasses materialize into the nitrogen we find in the soil. The Nitrogen cycle is almost identical to the Carbon cycle. Natural Disturbance are disturbances caused by Mother Nature. Anthropogenic caused disturbances are man’s way of harming the ecosystem. Nature has a way of recovering with and without help. Estuary Ecosystem The United States of American is a country that consists of many different ecosystems in a relatively small space. From the arid desert climate with scorching temperatures to mountainous areas that stay frozen year round, the United States has many different ecosystems to offer. One ecosystem in particular is the estuary system. Normally found along coastal lines, estuaries offer a safe haven for water, air and land creatures alike. It also offers a great area for many different types of vegetation to grow. One state with a plethora of estuaries is the state of Florida. Florida, having a relatively warm climate year round and having a coast line that almost surrounds the entire state, gives these ecosystems a great environment to flourish.

...been a tri-state debate between Florida, Georgia and Alabama. This fight has been over if Georgia should be required to send more water from the Chattahoochee River to Apalachicola Bay. Georgia should not be required to send more water to Apalachicola Bay. The world is continuously growing and with Atlanta being such a huge city, Georgia is in extreme need of the water consumption. Water shortages continue to be a problem for people, it affects one to two billion people in the world. Without enough water people will not have access to good sanitation and hygiene. Not having proper sanitation can increase the risk of disease and death. It is argued that inadequate amounts of water will also lower the risk of food production. This is Florida’s main debate. Florida wants the water to help with their production of Oysters, which is a growing business for their economy. However, I think the lives of humans and their needs come before that of ways to stimulate the economy. Florida also complains of drought like conditions, getting water from the Apalachicola Bay would not nearly give them enough water to stop the drought like conditions that are a problem to Florida. Giving them more water would only increase the chance that Georgia could go into drought like conditions. In order to send more water down the bay they will need to build barriers to start and stop the water flow when needed and it will eventually cost more than having the water will be worth to them. The water should stay...

...EARLY COLONIZATION PERIOD IN AMERICA By the 1700’s two settlements had been established, Chesapeake and New England regions. Both New England and the Chesapeake region started off as colonies, established by England, and were divided into two distinct societies because of their religious, economic and geographical differences. The first major difference between the two settlements was religion. On one hand, the puritans, who colonized the New England, were very religious. They wanted to create a model society in which there were limits to legitimate commercial behavior, and the religious idealism would turn into a renewed sense of community. They were very strict in their religious beliefs. The Chesapeake region took a different approach, and did not put religion at the center of life. In the Chesapeake, religion was much less severe. These was the difference between two region. The second difference between the two settlements was economy. The Chesapeak’s economy was almost entirely based on farming. Rice, indigo, tobacco, sugarcane, and cotton were cash crops. Crops were grown on large plantations where slaves and indentured servants worked the land. On the other hand New England’s economy was largely depend on ocean. Fishing was most important to the New England economy. Farming was difficult in New England for crops like wheat because of the poor soil. As can be seen the economic sources was different between the two region. The last difference between the two settlements...

MANILA BAY bay of the South China Sea extending into southwestern Luzon Island, Philippines. Almost completely landlocked, it is considered one of the world’s great harbours and has an area of 770 sq mi (2,000 sq km) with a 120-mi (190-km) circumference. Its widest diameter, from northwest to southeast, measures 36 mi. Corregidor Island, 30 mi west of Manila, divides the bay’s 11-mi-wide entrance into two channels—the seldom used South Channel and the safer, 2-mi-wide North Channel between Bataan Peninsula and Corregidor. The northern and northeastern shore of the bay adjoins Luzon’s central plain. There the bay is shallow and lined by the mud flats and mangrove swamps of the delta of the Pampanga River, site of the most extensive commercial fishponds in the Philippines. Most of the bay is between 30 and 120 ft (10 and 40 m) deep; the tidal range is only moderate. Manila Harbor, at the easternmost part of the bay, is divided into two sections: North Harbor for interisland ships and South Harbor for international shipping. Sangley Point is a U.S.–Filipino naval reservation near Cavite, on the southeastern shore, and Balanga, on the western shore, is the base of a small fishing fleet. Manila Bay provides excellent protected anchorage, since it is sheltered by the...

This belief was strong among the Baptists as they said lord and king had given them freedom but the white gentlemen in Jamaica kept it back. • Sam Sharpe could read newspapers and he heard the people at the bay talk he would then bring up all news and spread it among the negroes on the plantations. Sometimes he would bring newspapers from the bay and read m to the slaves.

...activities of the Non-Conformist Missionaries. It was felt that the teachings and preaching of these religious sects, especially the called Baptists, Wesleyan /Methodists and Moravians had the effect of producing in the minds of the slaves a belief that they could not serve both spiritual and temporal masters. St. Matthew 6:24 St. John 8: 36, I Corinthians 7:23, Galatians 3:28 The third and most immediate cause was the flogging of a female slave in the northern part of Jamaica. Her husband was forced to watch the brutal flogging. He struck the whipper. The overseer then ordered him to be arrested, but the other slaves refused. This began the chain of actions. Flogging of a slave Another cause was the influence of Sam Sharpe, a slave in Montego Bay who was able to urge the slaves to stop working on the plantations by spreading "watch words" called freedom. He could read and write. From his master's newspaper he learnt that emancipation was very near and that wage and labour would come to Jamaica. He spread the news among the slaves. Under the guise of religious group meetings in St. James, he organized a general strike during the Christmas week of 1831. Christmas day in the year of 1831 came on a Saturday. This meant that the slaves had two consecutive days off from work. They were expected to resume working on Monday December 27, 1831. The Christmas holidays provided an...
