handed until I spotted the stack of boxes in the far left corner. There was a small wooden box on the top labeled David Walker with black sharpie. This is it. I thought. I sprinted out of the attic holding the box in one hand and the ladder in the other. Out of breath, I plopped down onto my bed, sitting with my legs crossed and the box out in front of me. Answers… Please give me answers. I thought as I opened the box. Inside held a picture of a man with dark skin and short black hair. I assumed this was
Boxes tumbled one after another as my cat blinked out of fear behind it, staring at the boxes. “Tigger!” My mother exclaimed as she rolled her eyes, catching my attention as I poke my head through the archway. “What did he do?” I asked as my mother walked over to the boxes and started to pick up the boxes. “He knocked over these boxes,” she explained as she gave a pointed look to my brown tabby. Sighing, I walked over to help her, kneeling on one knee. “It seems he doesn't want to leave either
activity that anyone can take part in. Towns and schools hold annual cardboard boat regattas, judging the entrants on speed, design, and creativity. In New Richmond, Ohio there is even a cardboard boat museum! These special boats are more than just a box thrown into water; they are designed using elements of engineering and physics to make them not only water ready, but fast and durable. Building cardboard boats is an exciting way to incorporate topics studied in the classroom into an exciting educational
You would. My inner voice says No I would not, thank you very much. That is what you are doing right now, isn’t it? Why how rather snarky of you, myself! “Wait, what am I doing? This is weird.” It’s only weird when you make it weird. “Stop talking, I’m trying to do stuff!” I say out loud, beginning to weave vines and leaves together. The voice in my head mimics me, but retreats back. Looks like I won. I continue to gather wood and dry leaves, to make a fire as it is starting to get cold. Right
maybe?” I was startled; I hadn’t expected this kit to work let alone posses my laptop. The voice appeared to not have heard me and a black rectangle appeared on the screen in the middle of the blood red. A cursor was positioned on the far left of the box indicating that it wanted me to type something. My hands shook and seemed to work without my volition and I typed in the first name I could think of: Heidi Olsen. Immediately both the screen and the seance kit went dark. Then, the ouija board went crazy

It was every parent’s worst nightmare. That feeling of uneasiness, not knowing if you’ll ever know the truth, fled the minds of my parents. Two days ago, on November 16, my life flashed before my eyes twice. The first had happened around 7:30 in the evening and I was on my way to my best friends house. I had gone to her house a thousand times before, and I didn’t think this time would be any different. Driving down the highway, the unimaginable happened, I lost control of my car. I had lived through
the boxes that I incorporated with the musical instruments. They used the boxes as a musical instrument by tapping the bottom part of it, using it as a tool to stand, or basically just practicing how to open and close it. When I hid something in the box they kept on opening it and smiling as they opened it. In the room, we had this one big coffee tin can that has holes on the plastic lid. Children would take off the blue plastic lid and pour the small metal lids into the floor. Children would also
days, whistles were pretty popular. Slide whistles were a very common favor at birthday parties. I remember an older cousin came back from the army once, and he had a really cool whistle that played several different notes. It had come out of a box of cracker jacks. My supplier in those days was my grandfather, who conveniently owned a liquor store. My brother and sister played with my cousins in canyons and caves made out of the corrugated cardboard crates in the storeroom of beer and cigarettes
Peter Carey’s The Fat Man in History Entrapment and Isolation are common attributes of characters throughout several of the stories in The Fat Man in History. This comes across in many forms, both physical and mental. In most of the stories both entrapment and isolation often the result of the interaction of both. Stories which this theme is apparent are Crabs, Windmill in the West, and A Report on the Shadow Industry. In all of these stories characters are both entrapped and isolated by their

Today, we pride ourselves as being a fair and just society. We take advantage of the liberties and freedoms given to us each day. The traditions that lie in our cultures, beliefs and customs, provide us with a sense of security and happiness. However, there is a much different consensus conveyed through the cruel and barbaric customs subsiding in Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery." The unsubstantial ritual of this society reveals te traditions and blind obedience of a small village town. Moreover
by one actor who portrays either a single character, or multiple characters in the dramatic situation.’ (Mackenzie, D., 1996:46). Leah Purcell and Scott Rankin’s Box the Pony (1999), and Sancia Robinson and Wendy Harmer’s What is the Matter with Mary Jane? (1996) are two very exceptional, yet adversative styles of monodrama. Both play-texts carry personal, positive and affirming messages demonstrated through the use of significant themes, distinctive style, clever structure, valuable language techniques

Not Looking at Pictures - Not Reading Texts Here are two persons in an open, empty space. Bound by walls, they are its contents. Now they exit, walking down corridor after corridor, filling and emptying rooms as they go. Four feet strike the floor in steps: two beat regularly, forming measures, and two more land off the beat, sounding irregularly, introducing syncopation; but when the steps intersect-as they now do-there is diaphony, which displaces our memory of the sounds that preceded it. A
Integrating Texts and Graphics into Your Writing My advice for students about integrating texts and graphics would be to figure out how to combine them most appropriately for what you want to convey, whether it be an informational article or a creative story. In most cases, especially in technical writing, the main purpose of graphics is to explain something faster or organize the information better. Last spring in technical writing, we focused a lot on how to use our graphics in our final proposal
about electronic text are that it is not aesthetically pleasing and it is awkward to read. This is a copout for people unwilling to change with the times. Books will always have a place in writing, but doubters had better hop on the bandwagon soon, because computers and electronic writing are here to stay. In the educational arena, printed texts are becoming increasingly obsolete. The amount and variety of information available on the internet have made reading electronic text not only an option
dreams in ancient texts, Freud wrote, “They took it for granted that dreams were related to the world of the supernatural beings in whom they believed, and that they brought inspirations from the gods and demons. Moreover, it appeared to them that dreams must serve a special purpose in respect of the dreamer; that, as a rule, they predicted the future.” He goes on to explain the findings of a fellow psychiatrist, Gruppe, who believed that there are two classes of dreams in ancient texts. The first
Throughout William Gibson's Neuromancer, the text shows many ways of using the syntactic rhetorical strategy. Within the text, many examples show a break in perception or explain quickly areas that span over a long period of time. For all of these reasons Gibson cleverly uses the syntactic approach to allow his readers the freedom to make their own assumptions and to illustrate his plot in this novel Neuromancer. Whether it be changing the point of view from inside the Matrix to indicating Case
