    Governess after saying the name of the ghost‚ “Peter Quint- You devil”. This mystery illuminates the meaning of the work as a whole because the reader can conclude many ways of how he had died. For example‚ we can say that he had died since the evil spirit of the ghost left the body of MIles‚ the Governess was holding him to hard‚ or that he died in shock and fear. The death of Miles contradicts the whole story because we had thought that Miles was a friend of the ghosts but at the end we realize that he

    portrayed the Ghost Dance as a reaction to the social and political dissatisfaction of the Indian tribes.

    Mystery of ‘K’ in CMYK The K in CMYK stands for “Key”‚ but the answer is much more interesting than that. The “key plate” is said to add the “detail” to a printed image. This is true in that the black plate in a four color process print pushes the contrast and creates “detail”. Many people suggest that the theory of using K instead of B because it may be easily confused with “Blue” is a myth. While it is highly speculative what the reasoning is‚ there are context clues as to why it may actually

In his native country of Norway‚ and indeed all around the world in the year 1881‚ ‘duty’ was seen as a powerful motivator in both religion and society. The abstract concept of duty was what constrained society into ‘acceptable’ boundaries‚ and people without a sense of duty were often shunned and rejected

Although as Johnson makes clear in the early pages of his novel‚ it is not really a mystery when you consider the sanitation issues they were facing in mid-nineteenth century London. Johnson describes how two men from different fields with different

    Look‚ I dig Ghost Rider. As I said when reviewing the first Ghost Rider movie (one that I still believe holds up as a passable guilty-pleasure) the comic-book antihero’s appeal lies in his darkness‚ his badassery and his extreme heavy-metallitude. That‚ and the motorcycle. Having said that‚ I don’t think most issues of Ghost Rider I pored over as a child were ever actually well written. The story -- of a man who sold his soul to the devil‚ to moonlight as a bounty-hunter by night‚ covered
