Little Nimrod killed C.C. Robin. There are a couple pieces of evidence that prove this. For instance C.C. robin was killed with a blow to the head - Little Nimrod had picked up a tent pick and hit him with it. This Fact is important because it shows what the murder weapon was and that is an important part of the case. Also that piece of evidence shows there was only one blow to the head which had enough force to kill him. Another piece of evidence is, C.C Robin was a witness along with arch Forester when they found the dead eagle. This proves that because that there was more than one witness which is always a key thing in a case is to have in a murder case. Because Little Nimrod didn’t want another witness, he killed C.C. Robin with the nearest…
Jones’ William Clark… chapter 3 starts with George Rogers Clark (GRC) declining Jefferson’s offer to lead a military excursion westward, suggesting that a few men could sufficiently do the job. Jones then writes of the Clark family’s belated travels across the Appalachians and down the dangerous Monongahela and Ohio rivers before landing outside Louisville and building a farm. He then writes about more problems with Indians, prompting GRC to lead an unsuccessful military campaign after a forced peace treaty was disregarded by non-invested tribes. William Clark is also written about: his joining of and exploits in the Kentucky militia, his journalizing of these exploits and the areas they took him, his self-taught education and naturalistic writings, and his commissioning as a lieutenant in the newly reformed, post-St. Clair’s Defeat US Army. Clark’s early duties as a lieutenant, Jones writes, involved ferrying soldiers and supplies around western outposts and forts, and even to the Chickasaw Indian tribe once. Within a few years, Clark became quartermaster of one of the four Sub-Legions of the US Army, joining the campaign into northern Indian lands that culminated in the Battle of Fallen Timbers, the final and deciding battle in the Northwest Indian War. Jones then recounts General Anthony Wayne’s successful…

When we hear or see the name Robin Hood, we think of the heroic outlaw in the English folklore who, according to legend, was a highly skilled archer and swordsman. Traditionally depicted as being dressed in Lincoln green, he is often portrayed as “robbing from the rich and giving the poor” alongside his band of Merry Men. Robin Hood became a popular folk figure in the late-medieval period, and continues to be widely represented in literature, films and television. The nonprofit organization located in New York, the Robin Hood Foundation has a legal philosophy of “taking from the rich and giving to the poor”. The mission of this organization states that the Robin Hood Foundation is New York’s the largest poverty-fighting organization, and…

For those who don’t reach the end of the book The Kite Runner, they might consider Amir to be evil or immoral. Based on his actions from his childhood and teenage years he does things that seem inhumane and inconsiderate.

Readers begin to sympathize more with Amir because they understand what being neglected can make a person feel like. They can also relate to what it might be like to not have a mother as well as the despair of being betrayed by someone you love.…
As I crossed the road with my dog Henry, I could feel the frigid winter breeze on my face. Then I felt a snowflake land on my nose like a plane landing after a long flight. I didn’t like this cold weather at all but I had heard many children around me cheering and laughing. I heard things like “woohoo it is snowing” and things like “oww don't throw snowballs at my face”. That last one made me chuckle a little bit when I had heard it. Then I heard someone yell my name, which is Brian by the way. So I turned around and felt a big snowball hit my back.…

“As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger to them that sent him, for he refreshes the soul of his master.” Proverbs 25 :13. All agree that Robin saved many lives, however some think that the trip to warn John go in the Wynd was too risky for Robin’s health. Some think Robin should have gone on the perilous journey to save the castle nevertheless others think he should not have. Robin should go on the journey to save the castle for three reasons. These reasons are: He could gain respect, he could save lives, and he could gain strength.…
A little over a month ago, I had the supreme honor of interviewing an absolute acting legend whom I barely knew. In fact, had it not been for a couple of dear friends, I would never have even known the wonder that is Marshall R. Teague. I even questioned whether I was worthy of such an interview. I hadn't even seen an entire movie of his. But he agreed to the interview, and I had done my homework. Furthermore, I was immensely impressed with Marshall as I witnessed and experienced our online interactions. And my good friend, Rick Ravanello, had nothing but good things to say about him. In fact, Rick himself agreed to share a special memory...…
Michelle, brown eyed, 48 year old lady who walked with a slight hunch. She always wore bright red lipstick specifically designed to cover her dry, chapped lips. Her hair felt like hay and her wrinkles covered her face like art. She wore thrift clothes everyday, and she wore them proudly. Michelle was unemployed, and lived with her two dogs Lucy and Lola. She has had her dogs by her side since I can remember. They were inseparable. Michelle had a heart of gold and a sympathetic soul. She was passionate about every person she met, evil or kind. Benevolence filled her body from the tip of her toe to the top of her head. Whenever she first saw you, she would greet you with a smile reaching from ear to ear, showing off her…
“Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight.” (Christopher Nolan) In The Dark Knight, Batman is the hero of Gotham. Batman is Bruce Wayne’s identity as he fights crime to protect Gotham in Nolan’s trilogy. Bruce Wayne was born a hero, he was raised the way a hero is and lived the life of a hero. There is no doubt in my mind my argument will be convincing in this case. When one searches for the definition of “hero” in the dictionary, one finds definitions of the term such as: “a man of distinguished courage or ability, admired for his brave deeds and noble…
She asked me what my name was and I replied,” Roger”. Then she told me to go wash my face. She left the door right open I thought I could make a run for it, but I didn’t want to put myself in any more danger. The lady got up and left the room only looking at her purse. She said her name was Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones. I was amazed by how long her name was but I had no time to think about that. I took care to sit on the other side of the room so she wouldn’t suspect anything. Then she heated some lima beans and ham she had in her icebox. I had to admit I was starving. She also made some cocoa. As we ate dinner she said,” Now, here, take this ten dollars and buy yourself some blue suede shoe.” Then she led me down the hall and I didn’t know what to say. As I walked out the door she told me goodnight and to be safe, but I didn’t say anything back. No words can explain how grateful I am for her to do the things for me. Then she shut the door. I was relieved when I got home. Man… What a…
“In 1903, the industrialized world moved at the speed of a steam engine.” Most people thought that was fast enough. A few months before a smug scientist had claimed that no powered aircraft would ever get in the air despite the efforts of many would-be aviators. His words seemed to have been confirmed a little later after a motorized aircraft crashed into a river, killing its pilot. Men wore bushy handlebar mustaches and high-necked collars and wouldn’t have left the house without a derby or a top hat. Women wore high button shoes and long skirts and wouldn’t dare go out without their hair pinned up and a hat upon their head. A nickel had the same value as a dollar in today’s world. It was in this world that the Wright…
The research paper I have chosen to examine from Batman films involving the presentation of the Byronic hero in contemporary movies. The Byronic hero of the Batman are darker and ruthless, however, as a hero, he participates in a journey that faces adversaries without killing them. His characters portray strong, intelligent and hard-working because before his time being a Batman, he travels around the world and learns various languages, cultures and martial arts to obtain knowledge so he can battle his enemies and solve the cases in different ways. Batman carries the dark character because his parents were murdered in front of his own eyes when he was a young boy that leads him to retaliate his parents' death.…
