The Royal And Pontifical Blood Of the University Of Santo Tomas “It is said that blood is thicker than water‚ it is what binds us‚ defines us‚ curses us. For some blood means a life of wealth and privilege‚ for others a life of servitude.” –Words spoken from a recent movie I have watched.

Cummings was born on October 14‚ 1894 in Cambridge

“There Will Be Blood” Let me begin by saying that the movie‚ “There Will Be Blood‚” was completely different than I had originally thought it would be. I knew very little about the storyline of the movie and had very little background information. I guess all I really presumed what that ‘there would be blood;’ which did not happen much either.

people think that using American Indians as mascots honors the Indian people‚ but the truth is they feel insulted and segregated. There have been many requests to change this‚ not only by Indian people but by regular people from other cultures too‚ and still these sports teams used them as mascots. High schools and colleges shouldn’t keep their American Indian name or their symbols. Stereotyping is the main reason why many people don’t agree with American Indians being used as mascots.

Wyatt Earp’s buffalo hunting approach was very different then that of "old timers". The "old timers" had a standard way of going about there hunt. The hunter would provide five four-horse wagons‚ and enough supplies to last several months. They would also bring along a driver‚ a stocktender‚ a camp watchmen‚ a cook‚ and four skinners.
