The area explored during this walk has a good contrast of scenery; heather-clad moors, lead mines, beautiful meadows and woodland. The charm of Arkle Beck provides us with an impressive return. Reeth is the capital of Upper Swaledale, occupying the loveliest of positions below Calver Hill, with views of the surrounding hills and wild heather moorland. It is an attractive village with a large sloping green, enclosed on each side by housing, hotels and shops. Reeth used to be a busy market town with a charter granted in 1695 permitting six fairs each year and a weekly market held on Friday. The fairs have long since gone, but a small market still takes place each Friday. The Reeth and District Annual Agricultural Show is held on the last Wednesday …show more content…
Most of the dry-stone walls which extend straight to the tops of the fells are the result of the Parliamentary Enclosure Act of 1778. Enclosure of land for the purpose of scientific management was recommended by Sir Thomas Elliot of Fremington, acclaimed as one of the greatest improvers of the moors in Yorkshire. He advised ‘never to attempt any improvement without enclosing.’ This action transformed the countryside and contributed to the unique character of the Dales. From Fremington we follow a narrow tarmac lane which climbs up behind the aptly named White House, passing some former chert quarries to Fremington Edge. Chert is a hard, flint-like stone, which was quarried in both black and white forms. It was ground to a fine powder and used in the making of fine china and pottery. As height is gained we are favoured with splendid views of Reeth, Arkengarthdale and Swaledale. Approaching the ancient settlement of Hurst, its two imposing chimneys come into view. Despite army attempts to knock them down with artillery during the last war, they remain well
Mamie Phipps Clark Although Mamie Phipps Clark is not a common name in discussions of scientific and academic achievement, she remains a very influential psychologist over the course of history. Her work contributed to the disestablishment of school segregation and increased awareness in racial bias in children. She was well educated, despite all the barriers against her. And she was a loving mother, husband, and friend to those who knew her.
When people see new construction or a recently paved road, they often do not realize the sacrifice that was made to create these luxuries. Most people pass some form of construction on the way to their jobs or school every day. This simple fact sparks questions regarding what this area looked like before it was inhabited by humans. Illinois forests have undergone drastic changes in the decades since European settlement. Only 31 % of the forest area present in 1820 exists today. (Iverson Pdf) Tearing down trees to build new structures isn’t bad if done in moderation, in some ways with time and good planning its wonderful. However, anyone that hunts or claims to be an outdoorsman will relate to the incomparable feeling experienced when alone in the woods and far from the hustle of the urbanized world.

When I found out I qualified to be a candidate for the NJHS, I knew I had to take this chance. This group is made up of people who depict leadership, character, citizenship, academic success, and service and I would love to join. These characteristics wouldn't just be valuable for a candidate to have, but for everyone to have to exceed in life. If I were to be in the National Junior Honor Society, it would give me an opportunity to ameliorate my future and motivate me to do better.
Mark Driscoll, the Pastor at Mars Hill, discusses six different views in his article, “What are the Various Views on Creation?” They are Historic and Young-Earth Creationism, the Gap Theory, the Literary Framework View, the Day-Age View and the Theistic Evolution. In each of these views, Driscoll discusses the age of the earth and the amount of time it took God to create the earth. I believe the Historic Creationism is more scriptural. Genesis 1:1 is self-explanatory when it states, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth”. There was no time frame listed.
William Golding once said, “The only choice that really matters, is the interpretation of the story, is your own. Not your teacher 's, not your professor 's”. Holden Caulfield’s evolving circumstances and troubled past allows the reader to have strong cathartic moments whilst reading the story. In J.D Salinger’s novel The Catcher in the Rye, Holden Caulfield’s innocence causes the reader to feel appreciative towards his personality and attitude through his coming of `age. Comparably, Holden’s troubled past which he has presented throughout the story allows the reader to feel sympathy emotions towards what he’s been through as a person (mortalities). In addition to the sympathetic emotions, Holden’s dynamic personality makes us feel contemplative
“Courage is not simply one of the virtues but the form of every virtue at the testing point, which means at the point of highest reality.” Clive Staples Lewis, known as C.S. Lewis, was a popular Irish author, famous for his Christian works, especially “The Chronicles of Narnia.” Throughout his novels, Lewis enlightened his readers with his views about faith. Although his novels were revolved around Christianity, Lewis was not always a believer. There were many things that influenced Lewis as a writer, but the most significant were his love of fantasy, his fascination with mythology, and his Christian beliefs.
At the Miss California, USA seminar we were directed in how to apply makeup the correct way for stage lighting and also we had a number of evening gowns modeled so that we could know what is acceptable. We also had numerous swimsuits modeled for us by other delegates who I will be competing with. The person in charge of the USA pageant organization is Carolee Munger from San Luis Obispo, CA. She taught us how to present ourselves in the presence of our judges and also how to reach for our highest goals. The seminar was eight and a half hours long. It included learning, speaking skills, self confidence, and personal rights as an individual. We also had the privilege of listening to a well known psychologist speak to us about pageantry and how important it is know yourself and the goals you would like to achieve in life. Questions such as, "Where do you see yourself in five years?" have definitely given a new thought to what I would like to do for the rest of my life. I learned how to act self confident even in situations where you don't feel comfortable. I also learned that knowing how to make a grand entrance instead of a grand exit will give you a special presence.

The 2-300 acre Dimmock Cote Farm in Cambridgeshire, just a mile or two South of Ely is making Fenland Celery (a Victorian Favourite), and the unique way in which it is produced fashionable once again. Hamish has been farming this area for three or four seasons now, but before

This mid to late-19th century account of an early Victorian (English) public park illustrates the change of function and transformation of the Victorian public park from its original role as an upper-middle class observatory of Nature to its redefinition as this class' s social observatory of the lower classes. Between the years of 1840 and 1860, the public park's role in the eyes of England' s upper crust changed drastically due to the economic and political structure of Victorian England during this time and J.M. Milton's quote reflects this reality.
place like this would bring a lot of status to it. It is quite a sheltered place down in the valley and this is something that is common with its children - they tend to be sheltered and spoilt. Thrushcross grange is comfortable and decorative whereas Wuthering. Heights are basic and down to earth. Whilst Wuthering Heights has great power in its commanding position up on the hill, it will never be in.
“The bottoms consisted of six blocks of miners’ dwellings, two rows of three, like the dots on a blank-six domino, and twelve houses in a block. This double row of dwellings sat at the foot of the rather sharp slope from Bestwood, and looked out, from the valley towards Selby.” (pg.36)
