Montana History Assuredly, mining played a significant role in Montana's history. With the discovery of gold in several different gulches came boom towns across the state. As population started to increase people thought it should become its own territory and it did in 1864. Twenty five years later it became a state. Alder Gulch, Confederate Gulch, and Last Chance Gulch are clearly the gold strikes that contributed to Montana becoming a territory and eventually a state.
I researched colleges within the state of Montana, in order to avoid the costs of out-of-state tuition, and found two colleges that looked promising: Montana Tech in Butte, and Montana State University (MSU) in Bozeman. Before deciding which to attend, I took nine credits at Carroll College in Helena and three credits at the Helena College of Technology to get a head start in my CS program. I tried to take classes that would transfer into both Montana Tech and MSU, but in the end, MSU would not

Miss Clairol In the story, Miss Clairol, written by Helena Maria Viramontes, was about a woman who goes to the store with her daughter to buy items for a date that she was preparing for later that night. Arlene, who was the woman that was getting ready for her date is a chicana (Mexican Amerian) who throughout the story refers to things or events that brought a smile to her face as “sounding right.” As I read the story I could not help but smile throughout the story because it was so close to home
Helena Blavatsky Helena Blavatsky was an intriguing woman from the country of Ukraine. She could be considered a nomad for her time; however, she was not interested in finding food and shelter. Helena wanted to find those who were considered spiritualists like herself. She lived from 1831-1891 and can be considered a very influential woman from her era. Helena Petrovna Blavatsky was born August 12, 1831 in Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine. Her father was Colonel Peter von Hahn and her mother was
” which has many meanings. First of all, this line in A Midsummer Night’s Dream can mean that you have to work hard for love. Amorousness doesn’t just fall out of the sky and land right in your lap. It takes patience, determination, and hard work! Helena says, “If I have thanks, it is a dear expense/But herein mean I to enrich my pain/To have his sight thither, and back again.” (Act I, Scene i, line 252, page 36). This means that she is going through a ton of pain just to be with Demetrius, she is
Shakespeare, one of the main characters Helena also portrayed many characteristics. Although she possessed good qualities, the bad ones were more distinct. Throughout the events in the play, Helena’s qualities took a negative toll. In the play, Helena acted as a symbol of insecurity, in which she was presented as deceitful, desperate, and foolish. To commence, Helena was a part of many plot complications
they hurt one, even if it means sacrificing time, money and even getting hurt. How much is one willing to sacrifice for another? In the book, A Midsummer Night's Dream, throughout the story these fictional characters (Hermia, Lysander, Demetrius, Helena, Titania, and Oberon) do anything in their power to gain or keep a relationship. Without a doubt, Hermia would do anything for love even if it means that she has to sacrifice things for herself. For example, Hermia stated, “So will I grow, so live
does not reciprocate her love, by choosing to blame Helena for Lysander’s actions rather than Lysander himself. After Lysander falls in love with Helena because of the love potion, Hermia is in denial. Lysander hates her and asks Helena if he should, “hurt her, strike her, kill her dead?”(Act III Scene I). Any compassion he felt towards her has completely dissipated. Although Hermia is hurt, she is still loyal to Lysander and decides to admonish Helena for his actions, claiming she has, “come by the
examples included in this analysis are examples of how love is used impurely, but rest assured, they should not be used as a definition of what love is. Our protagonists, sadly, are left to face the consequences of tampering with it. For example, Helena, a presumably fair and sane maiden before her affection towards Demetrius began, has betrayed her best friend to pursue a man who could not have wanted less to do with her. Hermia, a wise but stubborn young woman, chose to gamble with her life rather
here and Romeo and Juliet creates a sense that the love is just as tragic and this is what makes the play superficial. On the surface the mechanicals create a sense of light-heartedness but the actual themes of the play are sad. This is shown through Helena, who throws herself at Demetrius “Use me but as your spaniel…” Her desperate need for attention is vexatious as she is neglecting all self-respect. The irrationality of love in the play makes it a superficial and light-hearted
course of true love never did run smooth” (1.1.36), applies to many of the characters, particularly Helena. For Helena, the pursuit of true love weakens her relationships with her friends and makes her face challenging obstacles. First, during the second act of the first scene, Helena shows her undying love for Demetrius by relentlessly chasing him, even though he despises her. Throughout the scene, Helena is cruelly abused and battered by Demetrius. Demetrius’s indifference to Helena’s express love
relationship is that in which the affections and the reasonable mind are both in harmony. At the start of the play, both Demetrius and Helena are clearly at fault. Demetrius has allowed his love for Helena to abate; she, by fawning on him, is guilty of doting, which exacerbates his dislike. An honourable man would stand by his promise and try to re-discover his love for Helena, and it is this which draws Lysander's taunt that Demetrius is "spotted and inconstant". In time, perhaps, Demetrius might reconsider
Act 2 scene 1 of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, sets up the third plot and third set of characters. This scene also will set the comedy scenario in the windows dealing with the lovers. The first part of the scene with Faery Queen Titania and Faery King Oberon have fought over a “changeling” that Titania has taken under her wing. Their conflict has upset the balance of the universe causing seasons to go out of sorts on Earth. This develops the theme of absurdity of love that is seen with the flower juice
Symbol 3: Key Trait 2 Envy is a key trait of Helena’s, and can be represented by a green colored mask. This trait is constantly present in Helena, and is evident through her jealousy and envy of her friend Hermia. When Helena first enters, Hermia says to her “God speed fair Helena! Whither away?” (1.1.180). This prompts an immediate and violent response from Helena: she says “Demetrius loves your fair. O happy fair! / Your eyes are lodestars and your tongue’s sweet air / More tuneable than lark to
The Lewis and Clark expedition across the present day United States began May 14, 1804. With the approval of President Jefferson and the U.S. Congress, Lewis and Clark gathered an exploration party of about four dozen men. These men headed off to discover Western America. On September 1, 1805, they arrived at the Bitterroot Mountains, near present day Idaho. This began a nightmare that would not end until they reached modern-day Weippe. September 1, 1805, the explorers set out traveling west, heading
The Montana Mountain Biking Case Montana Mountain Biking Company has been in business for 16 years providing guided mountain biking trips at four locations in Montana. The success of the company is linked to retaining its customers. Eighty percent of the customers who sign up for the one week guided mountain biking expedition are repeat customers (University Of Phoenix, 2007). An important part of any marketing plan is to understand the customer relationship because ultimately, all profits come
There are many ways in which we can view the history of the American West. One view is the popular story of Cowboys and Indians. It is a grand story filled with adventure, excitement and gold. Another perspective is one of the Native Plains Indians and the rich histories that spanned thousands of years before white discovery and settlement. Elliot West’s book, Contested Plains: Indians, Goldseekers and the Rush to Colorado, offers a view into both of these worlds. West shows how the histories of
Going out west last summer was one of the most exciting and interesting things I have ever done in my life. When my mom first told me about the trip I was only really excited about going on the airplane. But when we got there, I was in for a big surprise. One of the worst parts of the trip was that my family and I had to wake up at 3:00 AM to catch the plane in Manchester. We flew from Manchester to Cleveland Ohio, and then from Cleveland to Salt Lake City, Utah. I had a lot of fun on the plane
