Released on the 2nd October 1995 “(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?” reached #1 in nine different charts worldwide including the European Album’s Chart. This release coincided with the release of Iron Maiden’s Tenth album “The X Factor”. Starting with the first track on the Album, “Hello” is the perfect title to introduce the album.

This is one of his favorite pleasures and he feels quite content in doing so. He is middle-aged, and resides in a burrow in the ground. One morning Gandalf, a wizard stops by to talk with Biblo. He tells Biblo that he is looking for someone to go on an adventure with him. Although Biblo is tempted he declines, but not before inviting Gandalf for tea the next morning. The next day Biblo hears his doorbell and he remembers inviting Gandalf for tea, but instead of the wizard at the door, there is a group
“So we raise her up every morning. And we bring her down slow every night. We don’t let her touch the ground, and we fold her up right. On second thought, I do like to brag, ‘cause I’m mighty proud of that Ragged Old Flag.” – Johnny Cash https://warfighterfoundation.files.wordpress.com/2015/05/flag-on-porch11.jpg?w=536&h=387 In just about every small town USA throughout the country, it is not uncommon to see almost every house displaying Old Glory in front of it.

Exposing the Human Soul in Lord of the Flies William Golding in his novel Lord of the Flies symbolically describes the degeneration of a civilized society in three stages. Embedded within this story of a group of young boys struggling to survive alone on a deserted island are insights to the capacity of evil within the human soul and how it can completely destroy society. After a plane crash that results in their inhabitation of the island, the boys establish a democratic society that thrives

Intentions and Heroism A building is ablaze and a crowd of people stare helplessly from the streets, listening to screams coming from within. A single person runs in to rescues whomever he or she can find. Whether or not that person emerges with a child in their arms, empty handed, or not at all, does nothing to alter our society’s perception of their heroism. Today’s society would classify such an action as heroic, regardless of outcome, for one reason: intentions. During Anglo-Saxton times the
While the answer we come up with might seem better suited for a conference topic about many other things that aren’t about memory, memory is at the root of the answer. The memory I’m talking about is not the fact that you remember getting up this morning. Yes, you probably can rattle off the routine you went through and how you physically came to sit in that chair in this room at a
that what you read is as important as how it looks. Have you ever tried reading an interview in a Raygun magazine? Kinda hard, right? Design totally for its own sake is nice, as art that is, and admittedly it looks cool. However, it's two in the morning and you're standing in line at the corner 7-11 trying to pay for your 40 ounce bottle of Kool-Aid, and you happen to see that your favorite MTV Pearl Crap-clone band is on the cover of this hip magazine and you go to read it, but you can't. It's not
In the early 1900s jazz became a stepping stone for women. After the Women’s liberation movement in the 1920s jazz became an outlet to rebel. Along with the ratification of the 18th and 19th amendments women became more empowered and wanted to be seen as individuals. There were plenty of obstacles along the way women had to face to become part of the jazz world. However in time jazz changed the way women are perceived; it gave women freedom, acceptance and opportunity. In return women such as Mary
God longer than you've been alive. On the way to the showers the first morning, you walk past her room. Her door is ajar, and she has just knelt down to pray. You can't resist. How exactly does a giant of faith begin her prayers? You wonder. You pause and lean closer. Will she pray for revival? Pray for the hungry around the world. Pray for you? But this is what you hear: "O Lord, I beg you first and most this morning, please bless…me!" Startled at such a selfish prayer, you pad down the
Journey to the Waste Land Who is the magnificent Thomas Stearns Eliot or T.S Eliot for short? Besides the fact that he was long distant family to former presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams, he was an incredible poet. Eliot had come out the womb writing in September 23, 1888 in the small city of St. Louis, Missouri (Murphy 3). You can call him “the man who virtually invented the idea of separating the poet from the poem and the life and times from work has been subjected to more analysis and
Walt Whitman was a great American because he was a patriot who was a voice for new American ideals and spoke for the people by defying aristocratic influence on the common mans life. Whitman’s story is a true American story. He rose from humble means, both financially and intellectually, and much to his own credit and determination became one of the America’s greatest literary achievers. He became America’s Poet long after his death through great study of his work by later generations who realized
On August 9th of 2001 America suffered from a great tragedy that will never be forgotten. Four commercial jets were hijacked and two were then crashed into the twin towers. The other two were steered off course but still one managed to hit the pentagon. These suicide attacks devastated the nation into grief from all of the innocent lives that were taken away, but can this truly be a terrorist attack? With recently reading the book 1984, I’ve wondered if this event was an accident or was it staged
They would tell her it was a magic machine for when very bad things happen in the world, people can go back and try again. She had not heard of this magic machine in almost a decade, since her mother died. Yet, here it is, in all its prospective glory. A crude, generation 1, time machine. Penelope is still in disbelief when her father tells her to grab the rods on one end of the machine and put the craniometer on. She slowly starts to with little protest. It is apparent her father is in a rush and

The Signalman by Charles Dickens, The Adventure of the Speckled Band by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman People have written short stories for hundreds of years; however it was not until the 19th century that they really became popular. Short stories were the ideal form for writers who wanted to earn some immediate money and reach a wide audience. As more people were given the chance of receiving basic education, literacy rates improved and more
On an uncommonly balmy afternoon in late November, I peer out the window of the Springfield-Vandalia stagecoach. Whereas I should be full of excitement over attending my first session as a legislator, I can’t stop thinking about the embarrassment I suffered a few days ago in Judge Green’s makeshift courtroom. When Berry and I gave Billy Greene our note for the purchase of his store, he assigned it—without advising us—to Reuben Radford from whom he had previously bought the business. Radford then
In the great, vast, bitter end it is with crystal-clear vision that I now see it is vital that Gatsby were to die. Each great tragedy needs a scapegoat, a hero to die to set off the cataclysmic ending plot. Throughout the course of my life, I now see that in the events that have happened, the choices I have made have had a profound impact on my life and Gatsby’s. In a magnanimous effort to protect that glass world I have painstakingly crafted years later, I felt compelled to write an ending that
and suffering and all of the apparent meaninglessness that was surrounding him in this concentration camp. This was his conclusion to the story: “life is not primarily a quest for pleasure, as for I believed, or a quest for power as Alfred asler taught., but a quest for meaning. The greatest task for a person is to find meaning in his or her life. “ This story really sticks to my heart, and I’m sure yours as well. They hit that little feeling nerve, right? Make your stomach feel a little weird? Don’t
