‘I don’t feel like I have this rage inside me and it’s building. I refuse to let him have that; he can’t have me. It would mean he had won' (Dugard, 2011, para. 1). This is how Jaycee Lee Dugard feels about her kidnapper, Phillip Garrido, after being held captive for eighteen years of her life. The crimes of Phillip Garrido should have easily been prevented if law enforcement, parole officers, and other officials would have done their jobs correctly. Not only could have the kidnapping been completely
kidnapped from outside of her house. Her stepdad tried to chase down the car on a bike but they got away. Her stepdad called the police and everything but she wasn’t found. Phillip and Nancy Garrido took and kept Jaycee in the backyard of their house in Antioch, California for 18 long and sad years. During those eighteen years she was rapped multiple times and was told many lies by Phillip and Nancy. The icing on the bake was that Phillip got Jaycee pregnant twice and she had two daughters when she was only
captured it from the Turks in 1094. Having held it for two years, it was only because of the inability of the Turks to unite against him. Tancred saw Edessa as his chance to cut himself a piece of real estate while his uncle Bohemond was busy with Antioch. But Baldwin of Bouillon (Godfrey's brother) has his eye on Edessa. His answer was to aquire it diplomatically. Baldwin's wife and children had just died in Marash. Baldwin wasted no time. As Baldwin advanced into Ciecelia, Toros sent an embassy
According to the FBI’s Hostage Barricade Database System, 73% of hostages display no sign of Stockholm syndrome (G. Dwayne Fuselier. 1999) My aim was to find out the root causes of the condition, to help myself and others to better understand this unique phenomenon established on the evidence discovered from my research. The research uncovered numerous discoveries that affected the way I exhibited my research project outcome. The information I came by proposed that Stockholm syndrome is more common

She abducted when she was eleven years old by a man named Phillip Garrido with the help of his wife Nancy. “I was kept in a backyard and not allowed to say my own name,” (Dugard ix). She began her life relatively normally. She had a wonderful loving mother, a beautiful baby sister,, and some really good friends at school. Her outlook on life was bright until June 10th,
Obscuring Online Identities In the midst of her two loyal and dependable friends, Jayde wouldn’t back down. The way the girls had always sneered and bumped past her weak shoulders, which was weighed by the bulging backpack, used to make her want to shrink behind the towering stack of textbooks planted on her rickety desk. The slight squeeze between the tightly held hands, wet from the beads of nervous sweat, was just enough to ensure Jayde that she wasn’t alone. Jayde was ready to fight back and
Jaycee’s full name was Jaycee Lee Dugard and she grew up close to Lake Tahoe, California (editors). Jaycee lived a pretty normal childhood until, doing things normal children did, until one day her life was stolen (editors). This project is going to tell her story the way she wrote it in her book, A Stolen Life. It will also have information from her childhood times, before the kidnapping as well as her life after she got her life back. Most of the information in this paper will come directly from
Scholarly Opinions Two notable Church Fathers, Ignatius of Antioch and Origin, had very distinct views of the Eucharist, yet contrasting. First, Ignatius saw the Eucharist as the center of worship because it stressed the focus of the presence of the saving power of Jesus. Ignatius stressed three main points: Ignatius connects the physical elements of the Lord’s Supper with the physicality of Jesus’ body. “Ignatius finds it impossible to take the bread as the flesh of Christ at the ritual and yet
noted cities in the New Testament is the city of Antioch. There were actually two cities named Antioch that are mentioned in scripture, Antioch of Syria and Antioch of Pisidia. This paper deals with Antioch of Syria and will look at the history of the city as well as its significance in the New Testament. The city was founded on the Orontes River about 20 miles from the Mediterranean Sea and is located about 300 miles north of Jerusalem. Antioch was originally founded in 301 B.C. by Seleucus I
I Komnenos heard what had happened, Komnenos became wrathful The besieged crusaders defended Antioch against Turkish reinforcements. Since the citizens of Antioch had eaten all of the food in the city while being sieged, the crusaders had no nourishment. Lack of nourishment weakened the already outnumbered crusaders. The crusaders had little hope of escaping from the countless Turks that surrounded Antioch. However, a local mystic claimed that the Lance of Longinus, the holy spear that purportedly
Two prominent religious schools delivered quality theological education that enriched knowledge and faith and were an essential element of the early writing of church doctrine. The School of Antioch and School of Alexandria both emphasized the study of the character, personality and nature of Christ, as well as the human condition. Both schools had an appreciation and understanding for deeper elements of Christology as relating to issues the church was experiencing however they had very contrasting
Many people have heard of Saul from the Bible, and many people have heard of Paul from the Bible. However, not so many people know that Saul and Paul were the same person. (Not King Saul, FYI he’s a different dude.) Paul is known for his incredible testimony to Jesus, but in what seems like another life, he was actually a persecutor of Christians, and was responsible for many of their deaths. In this other lifetime his name was Saul. (Acts 7:57 - 8:3) After countless Christians were killed and persecuted
lacked a united army, which increased the success of the First Crusade. For example in March 1098, after Baldwin's success in Edessa, instead of continuing on to Antioch to stop the siege by the crusaders, Kerbogha attempted to recapture Edessa first. This showed that the crusaders weren't a big enough threat to make stopping their siege of Antioch a priority. Another factor responsible for the success of the First Crusade was the desires of wealth by the Princes. Due to many of the princes looking to
all people and excludes no one. Acts 13:4-14:28 tells of Paul’s first missionary journey and the presentation of the Gospel of Christ to all people everywhere! While in Cyprus, Paul offers the Gospel to more than just the Jews. While preaching in Antioch, Paul experiences the rejection of the Gospel by the Jews. In Icomium and Lystra, Paul preaches to both Jews and Greeks and both groups of people receive the Gospel. Finally, Paul’s missionary journey ends with Paul’s ministry as a church planter
In life, there is always at least one moment we are called upon to “step up to the plate” and be a leader. This is not always easy, though. We may struggle with this calling because what we are being asked to day may be difficult for us to swallow. We might even fail at what is being asked of us to do at times. Some things we are called upon to do may be of far greater importance than others. In reference to baseball, being called upon by your coach to “take one for the team” by sacrificing yourself

Introduction/Thesis The Apostle Paul (formerly Saul) is responsible for the spread of Christianity throughout the areas of Asia Minor and Greece. Through his 3 mission trips to the region Paul created a base of support for the Christian faith and implemented a support strategy for future growth. The time period for his journeys was 45 AD – 58 AD. The story of Paul is interesting from the perspective that the man best known as the author of most of the New Testament started out as a devout Jew and
goes back to the time of the persecution following the martyrdom of Stephen. In other words, the events described in the next verses took place before the conversion of Cornelius. The introduction of Christianity to Antioch was an important step in the forward march of the church. Antioch was located on the river Orontes in Syria, north of Palestine. It was considered the third city of the Roman Empire, and has been dubbed "the Paris of the ancient world." From here, Paul and his companions later went
Prior to studying at Antioch University, I completed an Associate 's Degree at Seattle Central College. This experience whetted my appetite for academia. There, I learned that because of my life-long love of reading, I am adept at writing. I felt motivated to continue on to receive my bachelor 's degree at a college offering a four year program that suited my interests. My admiration for the arts and humanities made attending a liberals arts college greatly appealing. To me a liberal arts education
