When Anna Woodward and Josiah Flint lived in Steuben County, New York, it wasn’t unusual for Indians to stop by the cabin to trade.

Did you know that pigs are the 3rd smartest animal alongside dolphins and chimpanzees? The story of The Three Little pigs is about three pigs who were set off on their own into the world. All three build their homes one by one. They encounter a wolf who tries to capture each pig individually. The first two pigs built separate homes that were not very stable, so the wolf destroyed the homes and eats those pigs. The wolf is mostly successful except when he encounters the third pig who has built a brick house. The wolf tries to trick the little pig to get him out of his home. The wolf is persistent in this goal, but in the end, it’s no use. The pig lures the wolf into a boiling pot of water and eats him in the end. Due to these actions, the third pig is the most admirable of the three. The third pig is the most admirable because he is clever, ambitious and hardworking.…

Most of the conservation efforts concerning invasive species usually involves removing the organism for the impacted area, but if these species can be used to feed an ever growing population, removing them to be used for a purpose would be ideal. I find it especially wonderful that they’re using the opportunity to feed people who are in need. On another note, it was interesting to read how the fish is so stigmatized, to a point where people refuse to go the restaurants that serve…

Most of the literary works we have discussed in class are so distinctive from each other, yet so similar. In "The Yellow Wallpaper" and "The Beast in the Jungle" we see how symbols are used to portray and dramatize the theme of the story. We also learned how women were treated, or "expected" to act, in works such as "The Yellow Wallpaper", "The Beast in the Jungle", and "My Contraband", which then leads to the subject of miscegenation. We also see miscegenation used in most of Chesnutt's works and in "Desiree's baby" by Chopin.…
Presently, there’s another species that is not only thought of as less desirable, but actually feared. This is the Asian carp. Asian carp were introduced to the ponds of the Southern United States during the mid 1970’s. This was done to alleviate the problem of the algae that was building up. There are four main species of Asian carp. These include Bighead, Black, Silver, and Grass carp. As a result of flooding, the Asian carp escaped from the ponds and established themselves in the Mississippi River (“Asian Carp Fact Sheet).And now they made there way,into the illinois river system.And now they are, making there way…
Though the two stories “Fish cheeks” and “Two Kinds” have many similarities, their differences play a key role in defining each individual story. Both stories have the same basic setup; they are each told from the point of view of a young Asian-American girl, who are both the daughters of generation Chinese immigrants. This proves to be a source of conflict in the two stories, due to the fact that the cultural and generational differences between both mother-daughter duos. In the story “Fish Cheeks,” the narrator is struggling with her heritage and cultural traditions as she tries to fit into American society and be accepted by her peers, specifically, the minister’s son. She is embarrassed by her mother’s ethnic food choices for dinner and…
