Descriptive Writing: Nightfall The reflection of the orange orb in the lake flickers slightly as birds fly over it‚ chirping shrilly. The orb drags away the orange streaks of light as it drowns in the horizon and paves the way for a silent‚ enchanting night. Light slithers away‚ relinquishing its claim over the terrain to the shadows. Darkness creeps slowly and steadily drowning the cries of birds in its everlasting glory. The orange sky evolves into a jet of black cover overhead with millions

Today‚ we‚ group archeology A‚ have recovered an artifact on one of the battlefronts of the First World War. After days of digging we finally have what we think is the complete object with no missing parts. It’s a rather eerie‚ light object that sits in the palm of a hand. It’s a small piece of triangular metal‚ or rather small pieces of metal joined together‚ that looks like a small rusty bronze slice of pizza with a lot of screws and hinges as toppings. Its extra parts consist of a small mirror

The purpose of our sanctuary on the Virginia Eastern Shore is to provide a home for chickens who already exist‚ rather than adding to the population and thus diminishing our capacity to adopt more birds. For this reason we do not allow our hens to hatch their eggs in the spring and early summer as they would otherwise do‚ given their association with the roosters in our yard. All of our birds have been adopted from situations of abandonment or abuse‚ or else they were no longer wanted or able to

What made Puritans unique even in the colonies was the fact that they believed everyone had to make his or her own profession of faith‚ and they held that any

Israel illustrate this point. Even America‚ “the land of the free‚” has struggled with this notion of coexistence dating back to when the colonies were first settled. The Seven Years War generated common and disparate interests within English colonies‚ and the consequences of the Treaty of Paris both helped to unify and further separate the existing British colonies. While coexistence is nothing more than a notion‚ it seems that every action in an effort to unify doesn’t come without separation.

The Causes for Colony Collapse Disorder Bees play an integral part in daily human life. Bees pollinate $14 billion in US crops per year‚ which includes apples‚ coffee‚ and almonds (Danforth‚ 2007). Unfortunately‚ they have gone through a rapid decline in population in recent years; managed honey bee population has decreased by one-fourth in Europe between 1985 and 2005‚ and by more than one-half in North America between 1947 and 2005 (Christen‚ Fent‚ & Mittner‚ 2016).
