I chose to analyze reviews of Steve Sheinkin’s Undefeated: Jim Thorpe and the Carlisle Indian School Football Team. I was able to locate three reviews after some rather frustrating searching. The first resource I used was School Library Journal‚ where I almost immediately was able to find an online review. Next‚ I pulled up the websites for Publishers Weekly and VOYA but was unable to find any reviews. I then tried Booklist but was discouraged when I discovered an account was needed to access full-text

As a professional photojournalist‚ he should totally avoid using Photoshop to edit his works‚ though this way will make those works better. Originally‚ taking photos is an art that people are trying to express their idea or thoughts to their audiences. In order to make their works accord with their

I began fussing with the Epic of Gilgamesh and the Enuma Elish because a group of people with whom I work were curious about Noah. And I can’t‚ of course‚ teach about Noah and the Flood without teaching about the different creation stories in Genesis 1 and 2. And I most assuredly can’t do them any credit if I don’t make a nod to other Ancient Near East literature. (Utterly unrelated to the task at hand‚ this little nugget from Gilgamesh [and I love it that my spell-checker knows this word without

Steve Freeling‚ the sixty-seven-year-old sheriff of Maricopa County sat in his office. His mind was on a recent string of murders that exhibited markers of cannibalism.

During his talk at Stanford’s 2015 graduation Ceremony‚ Steve Jobs gives the students very helpful advice about being confident and staying positive throughout life.

During his speech‚ he talks about how he had to sell bottles to be able to afford dinner‚ had to walk 7 miles to get a good meal once a

Tekstens tema: "Om at være udenfor." Håbløs er skrevet i 1996 af Østkyst Hustlers. Det er en lyrisk rapsang‚ som udtrykker "hovedpersonens" tanker og følelser. "Hovedpersonen" fortæller med sin indre monolog‚ om hvordan han har det‚ når andre sviner ham til‚ fordi han er "anderledes". Når jeg læser Håbløs‚ kommer jeg til at tænker på‚ hvor vigtigt det er for andre at man tilpasser sig. Det er "vigtigt"‚ at gå i det "rigtige" tøj‚ og være lige så cool som dem. Men det fortæller jo også‚ hvor nemt
