Imagine a person being forced off of their property. How would they feel? They would fight back‚ right? That is precisely what the Indians did.

Why exploring the ocean is mankind’s next giant leap By Philippe Cousteau‚ Special to CNN “Space…the final frontier.” Not only has this classic phrase dazzled the many millions of fans of the Star Trek franchise‚ some could argue it has defined a big part of the American ideal for the last 50 years. The 1960s were dominated by the race to the moon and Americans were rightfully proud to be the first nation to make it there.

there is a blend of pale‚ dark‚ bright and pastel colours that spread across the clouds. Hopkins has a characteristic method in his poems. He uses double- barreled words‚ such as ‘rose-moles’‚ ‘couple-colour’‚ etc. These words seem to splendidly sum up what Hopkins is trying to say. For example‚ ‘fresh- firecoal chestnut falls: finches’ wings’ refers to autumn and ‘for rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim‚’ refer to the mole like spots on a trout. He uses words that would not be normally
