Wrecking Crew. Maybe in a future installment, and not in the format of the epilogue. The epilogue reads more like a cast of characters instead of an actual epilogue. The description of what happened inside the cave was explicitly delicious to my mind's eye. The author delivers a gritty scene, but don't fret. Delicate, emotional situations are handled with excellent care as well. The scene where Gunns interrogates a dying man in particular will tug on your heartstrings. The main character's innate

What is Photography? Photography is the art, science and practice of creating durable images. Or as Ken Rockwell put it “Call it vision, imagination, or seeing; it all comes down to the same thing: the ability to envision a final result in your mind's eye, and then to make it so with your tools at hand.” My friend Kristen Savonell-Zehner has taken her hobby/interest to the next level, paid professional. Kristen got her first camera at a very young age and was constantly taking rolls upon rolls

Patrick Butterfield Butterfield 1 Professor Scarpone English 101, Section 6 Monday, October 13, 2002 Take a trip with me. I mean mentally, of course.

an eagle in its patient and abrupt action. The crisp and precise style in which the poem has been written is also appealing to me. The poet has captured the reality about an eagle’s behavior well, hence the reader is able to see the eagle in his mind’s eye. I Saw a Jolly Hunter- Charles Causely This poem states in a funny way the mishap of a hunter who goes after a hare in the country one hot sunny day. As the hunter takes aim, he fails to notice the gun pointing the wrong way and ends up shooting

RDG099 Pro. Mitchell Lucy Bergin 11/1/2015 Patience||| ||| Patience is necessary for success. It is said that “all good things come to those who wait” If we wish to achieve anything of significance, we cannot expect to achieve it overnight. Patience teaches us to value the effort and not just the success. It is a mistake to think that happiness can only be attained through certain achievements. Patience takes time to learn if you aren’t born with it. You have to be able to trust and wait. Being

make herself from everyday items. To add even more realism of character, Welty describes her as “Her skin had a pattern all its own of numberless branching wrinkles and as though a whole little tree stood in the middle of her forehead…”. In your mind’s eye, you can picture this small little old woman facing a path faced with hardship and danger, but with no inkling of fear or worry by her in her journey she is facing. The hardship of an elderly women embarking on a long walk to town is daunting

old brandishing a revolver, tilted my world in its axis. A thousand pictures played on a reel in my mind, of blood and gore, and a belligerent wave of emotion crashed: despair. I sat immobile, only aware of the horrifying scene unfolding before my eyes. “Ye wala nai, wou wala.” He drawled, cracking the deadly silence. My father obeyed, his hand reaching for my mother’s smartphone, following the same route, handing it to the wretched mugger. He revved away, leaving our lives changed. And it was all

What we know about the outside world has been conveyed to us by means of our five senses: what our eyes can see, our ears can hear, our nose can smell, and our hands can touch and feel, our tongue can taste. We are limited to these senses. Everything we hold, smell, listen to, and see in the outside world is only an electrical signal in our mind; for example, we can see an eagle flying in the sky. In reality, this perception is not in the outside world but is an electrical signal in our minds. However
