Entropy When I woke up that Saturday morning, I knew something would go wrong. I was planning a trip to San Antonio with my best friend, Elizabeth. First, my car wouldn't start. When we finally got the car started, we noticed that the air conditioner was not working, This is a major problem, especially if you live in Texas. We decided to keep going and to just roll the windows down to get some fresh air. Not even ten minutes after doing so, it began to rain. This did not slow us down at all. When we finally arrived in San Antonio, sweaty and exhausted, we stopped at a nearby gas station to fuel up. When we came back from paying, we noticed that the car ahead of us had backed out into my car, and in return left a huge indention in my front bumper. Furious and outraged, I…
Willa Cather writes the story of The Joy of Nelly Deane, describing Nelly’s joy as “unquenchable,” especially, Nelly’s joy attracted all the Baptist ladies who admired the prettiest girl in Riverbend, Nebraska (Cather, p. 225). Nelly fluttered from one social event to another, parties, picnics and dances, and sings like a “prima-donna” in the Baptist Church choir, where she met Peggy, the narrator of the story.…
Andrew Cockburn writes about how generals or different designation holders pretend to be at front line and hold various decisions with themselves rather than letting the ones who fight for us make the decisions. Firstly, Cockburn argues overall about the different incidents happened so far by holding the decisions and taking longer time to decide by the generals. Likewise, he discusses about the consequences of holding the decisions for a longer time by trying to watch through virtually, and how far can it be damaging for us. Supporting his arguments, Cockburn wisely asserts viable opinions and facts about how the commanders feel while they are battling. The most supporting document or the important document Cockburn includes in this article…
In their essays, both Anyon and Gatto's made a similar and critical argument that schools have been teaching an "invisible curriculum". In his essay "The seven-lesson school teacher", Gatto pointed out that the 12-year elementary education is no less than a jail sentence where "bad habits" (p.19) are the only curriculum have been learned (P.19). Anyon, in his "Social Class and The Hidden Curriculum of Work" also implied that there is a hidden curriculum being learned when students are only taught knowledge based on stereotypes of their schools' social economic status in order to perpetually maintain the social class differences.…
Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee are two of the most effective military leaders in American history. These men have become symbolic of the two nations at conflict during the Civil War. Both had very different backgrounds and personalities that caused them to differ in their military leadership and accomplishments. Even though General Lee would surrender his army to General Grant, Lee throughout the course of the war proved himself to be a better military leader.…

The Great Depression was the greatest economic crisis in the Western World. The stock market crashed on October 1929, sending Wall Street up in flames. By 1933, the Great Depression reached a high point leaving over thirteen million Americans jobless (“The Great Depression”). Relief and reform measures were soon put into place to lessen the heavy load the Great Depression created, but America would not fully recover until after 1939.…
Opening doors of hopes and dreams for thousands of people, the discovery of the New World rapidly broadened the minute and stubborn perspective of the world people once knew. Promising of wealth, new lives and freedom, many sold their life to servitude for a taste of America. But instead of wealth, they found debt. Instead of a new life, they found death. Instead of freedom, they found the endless cycle of poverty. Although few made gains, many, like Richard Frethorne, were left impoverish and destitute. Frethorne’s letter supported Hofstadter’s adverse views on indentured servitude in three main criteria: the disappointment of the New World, the inescapably torturous life of an indentured servant, and the countless deaths that diffused throughout the journey.…
William Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury tells of a crumbling southern family, the Compsons, through the inner thoughts of three brothers and a third person narrator. Each of the three sections gives a different perspective on their sister, Caddy, who is the main cause of the turmoil in the family. The brother’s, Benjy, Quentin, and Jason, each interpret Caddy differently based on each of their interior conflicts. Benjy’s section gives the reader the perspective of the Caddy from a simple minded perspective, and describes Caddy as such. Quentin, being highly educated, gives a deeper look into Caddy and how she leads the family, and Quentin, to their end. Jason views Caddy as a disappointment and a curse upon the family. In Jason’s interpretation…
Peaceful resistance to law positively impacts society. Humans have a lengthy, detailed history of not always being able to see what is right or moral in certain circumstances, and unfortunately, humans are who create laws. One infamous example of unjust laws would be the Jim Crow laws of the south. Today, it is clear as day that discrimination and racism is unconstitutional, but why was it so hard to see that during that time period.…
The Great Depression of the 1930’s was the worst economic period in the history of the United States. Taking over the presidency in 1932, three years after the Depression began, Franklin Delano Roosevelt became responsible for leading America’s quest to escape the Depression. Roosevelt passed the New Deal in an attempt to help the nation recover through a series of initiatives focused on economic recovery. While most people would agree that the New Deal had a definite impact on the United States throughout the early-1930’s, there are some critics that think that the New Deal prolonged the Great Depression. These critics believe that different initiatives could have returned the United States to prosperity much sooner, and that the Depression would’ve continued much longer if not for the start of World War II.…
