...1. King of the Hill is a cartoon comedy show which is more like an adult cartoon without the perverted disgusting humor like other fox cartoons. I like it, it is interesting and it has an amazing theme song especially the full version of it. It is about a Guy name Hank R. Hill who has a wife named Peggy Hill, a son named Bobby Hill, a dad named Cotton Hill, a mom named Tilly Hill, a step mom who went to kindergarten together with Hank Hill named Dee-dee Hill and a niece named Luanne Platter. He drinks beer in front of his house with his best friends from high school; Bill, Jeff Boomhauer, and Dale Gribble who are also his neighbors, plus last but not least they played on the same football team in high school. Dale Gribble has cheating wife...

...colonists surrounded Boston and Charlestown to keep the redcoats contained. The Siege of Boston was commanded by Artemas Ward, Nathaniel Greene, John Stark, and Israel Putnam. Before breaking through the siege, General Gage waited for reinforcements from General Howe General Clinton, and General Burgoyne. Therefore, the colonial militia and the British just remained and waited for something to happen or change. This happened in Philadelphia. In Philadelphia, Mat 1775, delegates from all 13 colonies met to begin the Second Continental Congress. Fighting broke out in Massachusetts and the king declares Massachusetts ‘in rebellion’. Most delegates wanted to make peace with the king; they sent a document call the Olive Branch Petition to King George. In the document the colonists told their king that they would remain loyal to him if he were to remove the intolerable acts from Boston. The king never replied to them, so they set up a continental army and put George Washington as commander in Chief. Washington headed to Boston while a major battle broke out between the redcoats and militia. The minutemen had the redcoats surrounded in Boston. British General Howe was in charge of the navy and ships at anchor at Boston Harbor. If he needed to, he could use his cannons and guns to powerful effects. On June 16 Col. William Prescott took up a strategic...

...The year 1066 began with the death of a king, and ended with a shout and a trembling new monarch. When the English king Edward the Confessor died on 5 January 1066, no fixed procedures were in place to decide who should succeed him on the throne. The Witan (a council of wise men) had to make the decision, and they had four candidates to choose from Edgar the Atheling, a sickly14 year old boy. Harold Godwinson, powerful noble in England, a good soldier and a gifted politician. William juke of Normandy, a distant cousin of Edward the Confessor, over the sea in France. Harald Hardrada, King of Norway and a direct descendant of the kings of England. He was related to King Canute, the King of England from 1016-1032. Harald Hardrada attempted to invade England, and once Harold Godwinson heard about this he gathered as many soldiers as he could and set off 187 miles north to where Harald Hardrada was at Stamford bridge. On September 25th 1066 the battle took place, It was a bloody battle and one in which Harold's army (the Saxons) broke through the Viking invaders front line to go on and win the battle. It was such a fierce battle that only twenty four of the three hundred ships, that came to England carry the 8,000 soldiers, returned to Norway. King Harold's celebrations of victory were cut short as news came of the impending Norman invasion and no-one was left along the south coast of England to stop them. The Saxon army raced back south to face the Norman invaders. William...

...| Thinking Like An Historian | The Dialectic in Faith/Reason and Ethics/Daily Life | | | History 104: The Medieval World: 500-1500 C.E. | This paper is going to cover two countries. One is a western European nation and one is a Middle Eastern nation. We are going to be covering France and Iraq and how their medieval formation of religion shaped their country into what it is today. The purpose of this paper is to outline how religion used to have such an impact and see how much that impact is today. Church and State have made a separation but is that a good thing or a bad thing? When you think of France you think of the Eiffel Tower, rolling fields of grapes at one of the many vineyards on the countryside, the fantastic food and the endless romance. Most do not often think about the days when soldiers in suits made of iron ran the countryside and collected the King’s taxes from all of the peasants he ruled over. It was a time when work and the Church were the only things in your life. Modern day France is Parliamentary Republic with two Houses of Parliament (the Senate and the National Assembly) and the Council of Ministers, led by the Prime Minister.1 The Republic of France is ultimately led by a President but he/she must confer with all branches of government before any major changes can be made. This political checks and balances system ensures that the people of France have a part in how government rules over nation. National sovereignty is vested in the...

...Life as a King Solomon Anselet is our new king and now rules the kingdom on his father’s (King Harold Anselet) behalf. The Kings father retired and handed his role over to his son, Solomon Anselet. Harold Anselet quotes “My son Solomon Anselet will now take over my position as King and rule the entire kingdom and the crown shall pass down through many generations throughout the middle ages.” Solomon quotes, “I will be a loyal and trustworthy king and I will make sure to protect my people from all dangers to come.” This sounds pretty promising to me. All hale King Solomon. King Solomon’s Food King Solomon is very new to all the different foods and quotes “All this food is so overwhelming and I have never been so full.” This obviously states that being on the Royal table truly is heaven on earth. King Solomon stats that there is a large variety of food starting from every meat to finishing with every single fruit you can think of. The main meal was usually served early, before midday and would usually go on for a couple of hours. It has been said that the closer you sit to the king the more important you were. Having these big feasts was really good for the kings and would state there wealth and status. King Solomon’s Housing/Clothes King Solomon lives in a huge castle. Starting near the river and making its way up the hill ending on top of the hill. The castle is so huge he states “I could probably fit at least 500 people in my castle.” The King’s castle has stone walls to keep...

...supporters of monarchic rule use it, what the metaphor does, and its inaccuracy. By inaccuracy I mean that it is merely the preferred image of those intending to exclude the people from holding power. It contributes to preventing people from changing the political status quo and renders the possibility that ignorance is anything more than a violent force threating political order unthinkable. At the same time, the caricaturing of a growing population of those who do not neatly fit the monarchic political order as a monstrous abomination limits the scope of potential remedies. The monarchic distribution of ignorance and the problem it supposedly remedies come through in King James I’s own words in the “True Law of Free Monarchies” (1598). Written by the King of Scotland just five years prior to becoming the King of England and Ireland, this treatise rationalizes unequal distribution of ignorance that sets the monarch apart from others. This...

...Vistulanians, and it was probably then, in the 7th century, that the two mounds, of Krak and Wanda, were erected. In the tenth century Prince Mieszko I annexed Cracow and the land of the Vistulanians to the Polish State. In 1000 a bishopric was established in Cracow and the construction of the first cathedral was begun. As year 1038 began Prince Casimir the Restorer made Cracow his capital, and first stone buildings were built on Wawel Hill. In 1138 Boleslaus III Wrymouth chose the town as the seat of the Senior Prince when Poland was split into several provinces. After ravages by the Tartars in 1241, Prince Boleslaus the Chaste granted a charter to Cracow in 1257 and drew the city plan which has survived unchanged, with a regular grid of streets and a central square market place. From the 13th to the 15th centuries the stone and brick City Walls were built, surrounding the city and joining it with Wawel Castle.(Podleski, J. 1995) In the reign of King Casimir the great the city and Wawel were thoroughly rebuilt in the Gothic style. The King settled the borough of Kazimierz to the south of Cracow and founded Cracow Academy, the predecessor of the oldest Polish university, the Jagellonian University. The city flourished in the 16th century...

...nations, and between men. THE PROPHET, HIS CONTEXT, AND HIS TARGET AUDIENCE The prophetic figure and the context of the Book of Amos are important for understanding its social criticism and ground-breaking lessons. While the Book of Amos may have been a product of at least three authors or editors over three different time periods (see below), the original purported figure and inspiration was a cattle herd breeder and cultivator of sycamore fruit from Tekoa, a little village on a hill in rural Judea, about six miles from Bethlehem and 18 miles from Jerusalem. He lived during the pre-exilic reigns of Uzziah from 791-740 B.C. (coregent and later King of Judah), and Jeroboam from 793-753 B.C. (King of Israel from). Tekoa was a rugged and desert-like area. Amos would have spent substantial time in the wide-open spaces of the Judean outdoors in the relatively harsh arid environment. From Tekoa, on a hill at about 2500 feet, one could see part of the dead Sea and a vista of arid, rugged limestone hills and mountains. As with John the Baptist, the wide-open spaces of the desert are somewhat naturally associated with spiritual vision. The starkness and danger of the wilderness may at times starve the senses, but excite the inner faculties. This period...

...discover Italy are described by Virgil in The Aeneid. Romulus and Remus were related to Aeneas through their mother's father, Numitor. Numitor was a king of Alba Longa, an ancient city of Latium in central Italy, and father to Rhea Silvia. Before Romulus' and Remus' conception, Numitor's reign was usurped by Nimitor's younger brother, Amulius. Amulius inherited control over Alba Longa's treasury with which he was able to dethrone Numitor and become king. Amulius, wishing to avoid any conflict of power, killed Nimitor's male heirs and forced Rhea Silvia to become a Vestal Virgin. Vestal Virgins were priestesses of Vesta, patron goddess of the hearth; they were charged with keeping a sacred fire that was never to be extinguished and to take vows of chastity. There is much debate and variation as to whom was the father of Romulus and Remus. Some myths claim that Mars appeared and lay with Rhea Silvia; other myths attest that the demi-god hero Hercules was her partner. However, the author Livy claims that Rhea Silvia was in fact raped by an unknown man, but blamed her pregnancy on divine conception. In either case, Rhea Silvia was discovered to be pregnant and gave birth to her sons. It was custom that any Vestal Virgin betraying her vows of celibacy was condemned to death; the most common death sentence was to be buried alive. However, King Amulius, fearing the wrath of the...

...and more comfortable, and the rapidly growing industry provided many North Americans with dreams of building the first transcontinental railway that would propel them into generations of prosperity. Two such North Americans were William Mackenzie and James J. Hill, Canadians who made it their lifelong goal to build the first transcontinental railway. Ultimately, Hill succeeded in achieving his dream while Mackenzie’s railway floundered through bankruptcy and shoddy assembly. The difference between Hill’s success and Mackenzie’s failure lay in their approaches to building railway empires. Where Hill was the single-minded perfectionist, relying only on himself in every aspect of his Great Northern Railway, Mackenzie treated his Canadian Northern Railway as one of his many hobbies, giving his attention only to facets of the railway that interested him and frequently relying on others for aid. Mackenzie and Hill’s different attitudes set them apart in their devotion to their dream, attention to detail, and varying levels of independence, and it was Hill’s superiority in all three areas that caused his eventual triumph over Mackenzie. Both Mackenzie and Hill shared a dream of building a transcontinental railroad, but whether Hill was exceptionally dedicated to his dream or Mackenzie simply wasn’t dedicated enough, it was clear that both railways were greatly influenced by the level of commitment their owners put...

...Sisson – World Culture I June 2, 2013 Abstract The purpose of this paper is to imagine myself as a figure in the Bayeux Tapestry and to write a first- person account in a letter home describing this historical event. In this paper I have described the event in detail and have explained why it was justified for us to raise arms in battle. To My Loving Mother Herleva, Let me start by saying I miss and love you and the family. Things have been very complicated since King Edward died without naming an heir to his throne. Edward's immediate predecessor was to be Harold of Wessex, a wealthy and influential English noble, who was chosen to be king by the Witenagemot of England. However, Harold was challenged by William who demanded that he had been promised the throne by King Edward and that Harold had confirmed this agreement. Harald III of Norway also disputed the succession. His right to the throne was founded on an arrangement between his predecessor Magnus I of Norway, and the earlier King of England Harthacanute, whereby if either died without heirs, the other would inherit both England and Norway. (Wilson, 1985) To add to this confusion Williams and Harald III both began assembling troops and ships for battle. Williams and I spent months preparing our army for battle and we waited for the right time to attack so that William could claim what was rightfully his. Mother you should have seen it about 10,000 soldiers dressed for battle in a rainbow of...
