.... lack of desire to work. The work schedule of the day was considered easy even by modern day standards. Colonists were only required to work 6 hours a day, while the rest was reserved for personal leisure time. This from a colony that was practically starving to death. This is one of the few examples in which the laws in early colonial America were actually not harsh enough. But this was all about to change. By 1611 things were not good in Jamestown. Many more people had died than had survived the harsh east coast winters. People were still frolicking in the streets instead of working hard to ensure their survival. Then Sir Thomas Dale arrives in May of 1611. He was se ....

.... for music, that is how father Gabriel kept them from killing him earlier in the movie. A person in the film also said “we could have taken the entire island if we had an orchestra.” Practices could also be added to what Captain Rodrigo was forced to do in order to renounce his former ways. Captain Rodrigo Mendoza, a mercenary and slave trader who first came to the top of the water fall in order to capture Indians for slave, was later one of Father Gabriel’s closest followers. Captain Rodrigo’s penance or self-punishment was to carry a huge bag of armor up the hill and over the water fall. Once he got to the top they cut it off and threw it down freeing him from his ....

.... one hundred feet would have been killed, but the ship would have remained afloat(82). This view was entirely speculation and we will never really know if this would have happened. In contrast, Geoffrey Marcus, author of The Maiden Voyage, suggests that the bridge did not receive warning of the ice from the very beginning. One of the messages received was from the Masaba warning the Titanic of a mass of ice lying straight ahead. According to Marcus, the message never reached the bridge, but instead was shoved under a paper-weight (126). At 10:30 p.m. that evening, a ship going the opposite direction of the Titanic was sighted. This ship, the Rappahannock, had emerged ....

.... the lack of any authoritative figures in the film. The town is seemingly void of any structure, law, or government, and the actions of its’ residents seem to reflect this. Individualism seems to reign supreme in this community, if it can be called that. Admittedly social bonds such as friends and family still exist, but as a whole individual pursuits and interests still override any pretense of collective purpose. This fact, however, doesn’t truly deviate at all from what is considered normal, true it does take on a much uglier face in Gummo, but individual goals and pursuits are commonplace practically anywhere in the United States and around the globe. On the other ha ....

.... slave labor was used to kill the people. The working conditions were so poor that death was a sure result (Gilbert “The Holocaust”) . In March 26, 1942, Auschwitz took women prisoners, but after August 16, 1942 the women were housed in Birkenau. When the Jews arrived at Auschwitz, they were met with threats and promises. If they didn't do exactly as they were told, they would be beaten, deprived of food, or shot. From time to time, they would be assured that things would get better (MicrosoftEncarta). The daily meals in Auschwitz consisted of watery soup, distributed once a day, with a small piece of bread. In addition, they got extra allowance cons ....

.... sister was his only female model. At this time he was attending the Madrid Fine Arts school as his father wanted him to gain skill to become a teacher. It was here that he met Luis Burnel and Lorca who would eventually replace his sister as chief model (BBC). In 1925, Dali had his first stand alone exhibit at the Galery of Dalmare (Duke). In 1929 and 1930, Dali collaborated with his friend Louis Burnel on motion pictures enabling him to create jarring juxtapositions, these films were Un Chien Andalau (1929) and L’age’d’or (1930). These films were considered the surrealist style and L’age’d’or caused riots in the streets of Paris (BBC). It was around this t ....

.... clergy, and peasants. The knights and nobles’ job was to defend society, the clergy was to pray, while the peasants had the duty to till the soil and support other classes (Collier’s Encyclopedia 532). The origin of has been traced back to the late Roman times when men placed themselves under a man stronger and wealthier than themselves (Rowling 31). The knights lived in castles built upon hilltops or in the bend of rivers. There they received vessels, held meeting: and upon occasion, defended themselves from rivals. There are many different general styles of castles in Britain. One of the styles is a motte and bailey, which was one of the first types of ca ....

.... the place where God had put the man and woman. The serpent was evil and it persuaded the woman and man to disobey God's wishes. The human's role in the Hebrew story was to multiply, be fruitful, and rule all things on the earth. The Hebrew story consisted of only one god, unlike the other stories in which there were many gods, who had a distinct power. The human's role in this creation story is to multiply and rule, whereas, humans in the other stories are ruled by the gods or humans are not even mentioned at all. This story is like the other creation stories because they all mention a heaven and earth in some way. Next, the Greek creation story contained many gods. Th ....
