    Who Was Responsible For Tupac Death

    Tupac, or 2Pac was an African-American rapper who had sold more than 75 million records worldwide, and was considered a hip-hop legend throughout his career. He was born on June 13th, 1971 and died a very tragic death on September 13th, 1996 . His death caused much sparkness to occur as of who it was that killed him, not of how he died. A lot of factors played in during his death, and considering the complexity of the murder, it was hard to tell if the death had been staged, or if it was all an act. Although, considering the circumstances, rivalries, and suspicions it can be concluded that Tupac Shakur was killed by the Crips gang, and that he isn’t alive in spite of the rumor that states that Tupac is still alive, or that his boss Suge Knight killed him.…

    Baking Soda and Vinegar Rocket

    All the materials you will need are very simple house hold; scissors, balloon, vinegar, baking soda, rubber band, empty bottle, clear wrap, straight pin, marker, thin piece of wood, drinking straws, and duct tape. One of the first steps is to make the rocket fuel the key component in this rocket. I began with placing ¼ or 1/3 of vinegar in a normal size bottle, after that you will make the baking soda bomb. You take a piece of clear wrap and place a good amount of baking soda in a square piece wrap up all the corners and wrap it up tight so it won’t come undone on accident, place it to the side for later use. You also need to a balloon and marker and straight pin for the next part. You will take the balloon and cut off a part where it will fit over the mouth of the bottle easily. Then take your marker and mark a spot where it is directly in the middle of the top and then use your straight pin and poke a hole in the top. Once this is all prepared lay the balloon and a rubber band over to the side separately. Once everything is ready you need to build a launcher, you can use a thin piece of wood lay on the ground at a 45 degree angle. You should attach a drinking straw on to the bottle to hold it in to place on the wood. After all is in place put the Baking soda bomb in to the bottle of vinegar and quickly put the balloon and rubber band on the bottle. Then place it on the piece of wood, you will only have a few seconds to do this entire thing so act fast. When you do this project you will need to be very careful and work fast because if you don’t watch out it will go off in your hands or worse your face. Be careful to follow it all very closely or it all could go…

    Poem Analysis: Into The Grave

    Unfortunately the relationship between the speaker and the mother in the poem is unclear as it is stated that her mother has passed away and is in a grave, which is shown here in the following excerpt “… into the grave!” but all throughout the poem she speaks of her mother’s courage, which is shown here “courage that my mother had. Went with her, and is with her still… if instead she’d left to me. The thing she took into the grave!–That courage like a rock” which is not typically something that is said by someone who didn’t have a good relationship with the person who’d passed…

    Tupac Research Paper

    On September 7, 1996, Tupac Shakur was shot dead in a drive-by shooting as he was headed to a suite Suge Knight, a member of Death Row Records, rented for the night after the Mike Tyson vs. Bruce Seldon boxing match. The fight was held at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, where Knight had spotted a crips gang member. As the black BMW Shakur and Knight were riding in halted at a red light, an unknown white Cadillac pulled up to the right of them. One of the four men in the Cadillac fired at the passenger's seat, where Shakur had been sitting. Shakur was hit four times, twice in the chest, one in the arm and once in the thigh. He was rushed to a Nevada hospital, where he was in a coma for six days before finally passing away on September 13, 1996. To this day, the assassination is still officially unsolved. The assassination of Tupac Amaru Shakur was unjust because he was an influential rapper, fighting through rough times as a man on the streets; however, many people believe he was a criminal involving himself in violence and drugs (France 1).…

Parham suggests questions based on a picture that was published after Tupac’s death. The picture was supposedly taken the day after Tupac was shot…

    As I Lay Dying: Poem Analysis

    Death causes the Bundren family to deal with change. Each character selects a unique way to cope with the family’s loss. By coping, the characters satisfy personal motives while simultaneously moving on with their lives. Coping mechanisms differ in the character’s emotional connection or “closeness” with death. Ranging from a strong emotional relationship to complete separation and dissociation, the “close” spectrum charts a character’s effectiveness in coping with death. As Faulkner addresses the idea of closeness he tests the constraints of emotional connection. Can the emotional connection become too “close,” enough to drive someone to the brink of insanity? As I lay Dying offers insight and response…

    Castilian Translation Of The Blazing World By Margaret Cavendish

    In this paper we present the Castilian translation of The Blazing World (1666) by Margaret Cavendish (to be published by Ediciones Siruela in April 2017). We divide our discussion on three points. First, we review the receipt of Margaret Cavendish in the field of Castilian language, doing much attention to translations of his works as to works that allude to the author. Secondly, we present how we have solved some major problems posed by the translation of the text as adopted for treatments between different characters (eg, typical rhetorical turns of the time, some archaic words and grammatical constructions, and some polysemic or historical semantic changes, as in "art", "artificial", "fancy", "wit". Finally, we present as we have structured…

    Poetry: Poem Analysis

    The works we studied within Creative Writing were all helpful in creating my own works to submit to the class. Throughout all of the reading, many of the works inspired me in different ways, whether it was short story plot ideas or word usage in the poems. While crafting my work for the final portfolio, I reviewed many of the poems from our poetry packet in an effort to find inspiration and to create new interesting images. I took the most inspiration for my formal poem, which I found most difficult to write. One of the poems that was most useful to me was Jilly Dybka’s “Memphis, 1976.” Dybka’s poem follows the sestina form; I also wrote my last poem in this form, so it helped to follow the form by looking at her poem as an example. Dybka’s…
