In Biology through the Eyes of Faith, it explains the difference between a scientist’s perception of nature oppose to a Christian’s perception.

At the Montclair Art Museum, located in the Rand Gallery of Native American Art, there is a tall statue made of Bronze and Jetulong wood, standing tall behind a glass case, called Pueblo Maiden.

The face features two indentations which look like closed eyes and a rectangle shape for the nose but there is no indentation for a mouth. The head of the figure rests on a narrow shaped neck.…
Significant Place is a paper that was designed to show one’s ability to use descriptive and figurative language. This essays main purpose was to let the reader know about a significant place by using descriptions about what you see. In this essay I really focused on showing the reader what the surrounding were and not telling. My significant place was Otto’s Place in Galena. I chose this place because this is where I have spent the last four years working. I know a lot of the place and have been in there so much describing it would be easy. I picked Otto’s Place: A Hidden Gem, as the title because many people who have found it have been so impressed that with their food and atmosphere and wondered how they have never been there before. In…
The salty wind sent Alice Clark’s hair rushing behind her as the boat pulled closer to the dock of the small land mass only minutes away. From her standing position leaning over the rail, she could see the figures of the few people who inhabited the remote place just off of the coast of Nova Scotia. It seemed they had all shown up to see the tourists getting off of the ferry—the visitors of the day.…
Statues come in many different forms, sizes, styles, and reasons. After watching our online video and I saw a statue from “The New Kingdom” of the infamous Pharaoh Akhenaten. I was intrigued by the unusual features of this statue. They were unlike the traditional features on a statue I am accustomed to. My research was to find out a little more about this Pharaoh and why he was featured so radically different from the typical statues I was accustomed seeing from ancient times including that of ancient Egyptian tradition. I took a look at some historical facts to see if they may help put the pieces of the puzzle together.…

Every year, my summer consist of my family and I traveling around the states. Boston Massachusetts, was one of the states that built the love and appreciation I have for nature.

Trees and flowers you’d Normally see on the TV, Big Houses with paintings so bright you think it was painted every-week.The lawns was tidy, plantings and the trees were clipped to purity.

The drive didn’t seem like it was half an hour; more like couple of minutes. From…
I'm sitting on a bench in Christopher Columbus Park. The wooden planks at my back are faded from a combination of sun and sea-breeze, and under my fingers are lover's carvings. Names, initials, crooked hearts, equations that end in forever. The last time I was here, I was eighteen. Maybe back then, I would have seen the beauty in it all.…
As I sat in my elementary classroom that first day of school after summer break, the teacher asked us to raise our hands if we went away during the summer. I quickly raised my hand and smiled feeling gitty. When it was my turn to say where I went that summer, I blurted out in a proud voice, “I went to Cape May” At that point the teacher would look at my puzzled and said, ‘Oh… you mean Cape Cod.” And before I could disagree she was on to the next student. ”Cape May, New Jersey, the southernmost tip of New Jersey. It is exit 0 (zero) on the highway,” I thought to myself and itched to shout it out. The teachers mistaking my vacation spot for another went on for all my elementary school years but it did not bother me, it made me feel good that I had a special place that no one else I knew had seen or even knew about.…

As we were coming off the Tower of Terror, all you could see were the old fashioned furniture, the dusty cob webs, flickering lights, rusted orange-red gates, and the copper colored outside of the building that held a million screams. Everything was beyond great. It was a beautiful day and I was in Disney World with my best friend, Nicole.…

They say Florida is one of the most beautiful states in the country, and I had to see it with my own eyes in order to believe it. As I walked out of Orlando International Airport, I could not believe how humid and beautiful this place was. Living for eighteen years, I have never ever in my life have seen such a beautiful place. I stood outside the door for almost four minutes looking around and taking pictures at the beautiful palms. We started walking to the parking lot, where all the rental cars were located at; we approach our white mini-van that our parents had already reserved for us. We put our luggage in the back of the car and headed to the resort where we would be staying.…
When I was living in the City of Mexico, my parents would take me and my little brother to visit my grandparents every weekend. My grandparents lived north of the state of Mexico; it was the town of Atotonilco in the state of Hidalgo. The exact location was miles out of town into a rural area; this area is about at least 90 square miles in total land. What makes my grandparents’ home so important to me is that, this land is full with life. There are woods, small rocky hills, plain fields for cropping, creeks, and most importantly my grandparents’ farm. It was a paradise to me, but there was one particular thing that would define why this place is important to me. It was the black cherry tree; it was scary, and an evil presence could be felt whenever anyone walked by it. I realized then that, this was the place that resembled true human beings dark secrets hiding in the center of paradise.…
