The pistol has been around hundreds of years but never had a huge place on the conventional battlefield until John M. Browning revolutionized handguns when he invented the Colt Model 1911. A major advantage to the new Colt Model 1911 is its semi-automatic‚ making it easier and faster to reload compared to the revolver previously in use by the U.S. Army. The magazine held seven rounds (Askins28). This allowed shooters to put a higher volume of fire downrange or more importantly reload less in a gunfight

Prophet Moses. Born a slave and raised by kings‚ he was chosen to lead. Millions admire his name. By faith Moses ’ parents hid him for three months after he was born‚ because they saw he was no ordinary child‚ and they were afraid of the king ’s law. Revered as a prophet but even more importantly as a teacher and a lawgiver‚ Moses was the leader of the Israelite people 3‚300 years ago during their journey from slavery in Egypt to freedom as a nation in the land of Israel. For 40 years Moses led the

Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came Posted on February 18‚ 2013 by Bryan Scalici Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came I would like to comment on how Browning characterizes Roland’s past in “Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came”. As he travels the ridiculously bleak landscape leading to the Dark Tower‚ the only living thing he encounters is an emaciated demon horse. Roland‚ already downtrodden by the setting‚ sees this horse and feels simultaneous pity and hatred‚ and comes to point where he needs

Introduction I start this essay from the Golden Rule "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you". In order to relate to people according to this rule‚ one of the most important needs is that of "humility". Humility is a high virtue of human beings. Unfortunately this affirmation is not accepted by everybody. Somehow this virtue is ignored‚ or it was not paid much attention to it. In this essay I want to show two things: like I said in the beginning‚ that humility is really a high

Robert Moses was the creator of New York City‚ Long Island‚ and Westchester County‚ NY throughout the 1 1930s and 1950s. He had transformed neighborhoods into shorelines and highways/roadways. He was very successful and changed NYC forever. However‚ some believed that he had removed lower-class residents from their homes to benefit the rich. I believe that he had helped the people of the future by making their life easier and untroublesome. But he was also very inconsiderate with the people who he
