Darlene is a wealthy bird-watcher who has been the first person to identify 17 different species of rare birds, including the Gawking Loon, and her Gawking Loon Bird Treats have won numerous awards at international bird culinary events. She has no children, but she does have a very manipulative dairy farming, playboy husband, Hue Heifer.

He may have children, but nobody is sure. Willis and Wanda are very private people who do not want their wealth to be publicly revealed. Like all red-blooded Americans, they don’t want the government to get one red cent of their hard earned wealth. Despite their differences, they want their children to share equally, but want their wealth protected so that their children can enjoy it.…

I feel that both Dillard and Didion have a very personable narrative writing style that engages the audience in different ways. Joan Didion’s “The Santa Ana” immediately pulled me into her story with the introductory sentence: “There is something uneasy in the Los Angeles air this afternoon, some unnatural stillness, some tension” (Aaron and Kuhl 44). I was also impressed by how she was able to convey a message of severity and some chaos through her narrative of the effects the Santa Ana winds have on not only the people but in Los Angeles and other locations around the world that have similar experiences due to the nature and harshness. The closing sentence: “The wind shows us how close the edge we are” (47), sent chills down my spine and…

In the 1800s, slavery was a very important talked about subject matter in politics, economics, and culture. It was such an important aspect of the time period that it was on everyone’s mind, and everyone had an opinion on it. This tore the country in half, and forced the South into secession. Many people wonder if this was legal, but due to the fact that the North had also broken laws and that the lawbook was in their favor, the South was entitled to secession.…
The two major purposes of the Crusades were the desire to indicate how Christianity is more superior to another religion and domination of lands. The Crusades were prominently known as the Holy Wars between the Christians and Muslims. In addition, religious conflicts and wars between Christianity and Muslim resulted in a prolong battle within the Western civilization. Many people from lower class to higher-class citizens, who strongly believed in Christianity and its interpretation of salvation, were all participated in retrieving the liberation in the Holy Land. Most of the Christians perceived that they needed more lands for their children to inherit, and that Muslims were not worthy to rule the Holy Land. In fact, the Holy Land was prosperous…
The song, “Wishin’ and Hopin’” by Hal David and Burt Bacharach, illustrates how some women display themselves as a property for men in order to attract them. For example, the girl is told to “do the things that he likes to do”. This suggests that women need to show interest in the man’s fascinations in order to be noticed. Similarly the girl is advised to “wear [her] hair just for him”. By using the word “just”, the writers indicate that a women’s appearance should depend on the man’s preference instead of their own pleasure. The authors use imperative commands along with physical verbs to enforce the actions that the girl must perform for the man’s attention. Physical verbs, such as “squeeze” and “kiss”, are normally actions done under lustful…

The two wars are very closely tied together and have a big relationship with each other.First off, some of the differences from the first world war to the second.

She was constantly in conflict with herself over whether or not what she was doing to help this boy would be seen as inappropriate and wrong. Laura’s friends and family were also apprehensive at first when she informed them about Maurice and their weekly visits; they were all worried for her safety. This boy came from a family of drug dealers and criminals, they didn’t know if they should trust him spending so much time with Laura. Even though everyone was telling her differently, Laura had a gut feeling that what she was doing was right: “I had only known Maurice for a couple of months at that point, but I already knew he would be in my life for a long, long time. I just knew that in my heart” (Schroff and Tresniowski 97). Even throughout Laura’s internal conflict with their relationship and her friends and family’s apprehension, Maurice and Laura’s bond was unbreakable.…
