He built his own telescopes and was the first to use to view the heavens in 1610. After doing so, he made many discoveries. He saw that Jupiter has moon orbiting around it, like the Earth. He made the discoveries of the four moons on January 7, 1610 and they are now called the Galilean moons. These are the largest of Jupiters moons.
Several modern rulers (from everyday fathers to leaders of the country) have begun as ‘brave soldiers’ and ended as crazy destroyers because of their poor choices and the consequences. Psychologists have shown us that, behind seemingly straightforward human motives (good or bad), there are often extremely complicated emotions and intentions. From Macbeth killing practically everyone in his life for his own gain, to the armed robberies and riots happening all over the world, we see greed, violence and people struggling with the concept of right and wrong in our everyday lives, no matter how far we think we’ve come from Macbeth. Lately we’ve been hit by a tidal wave of armed robberies. From general stores to petrol stations and even a train station in Perth has come under attack from guns and knives.
Amish people believe that the more children they have, the more blessings they’ve obtained from God. They love their children and are very supportive of one another inside the family under any given circumstance, making them very united. They always eat and spend time together by singing songs, teaching each other valuable lessons, tell stories, and go to church together to celebrate every holiday. In contrast, in the current Australian society, children are treasured. For that purpose, parents limit the number of children that they have.
We were born on it, and we got killed on it, died on it. Even if it’s no good, it’s still ours. That’s what makes it ours – being born on it, working on it, dying on it. That makes ownership, not a paper with numbers on it.” (Steinbeck 33) The farmers feel a connection to the land because they have poured their lives in to it. Losing their land is much more difficult because of all the work they have put in to it.
For instance, when Gilgamesh runs into Shiduri she tells him, “Humans are born, they live, then they die” (Mitchell, 456). Shiduri is making it clear that humans live only to meet death. The theme of life becomes apparent because Shiduri is mentioning that humans live then die and that is how the universe was made and that is how it is going to stay. Later on in the story Gilgamesh is being challenged by Utnapishtim to stay awake for seven days, if he can survive seven days with no sleep he can overcome death, but Gilgamesh falls asleep and fails the test. Utnapishtim makes it clear that overcoming death is going to be a challenge that is nearly impossible.
The U.S. free market system that was produced by capitalism has become a platform for atrocious behaviors. I believed at this very moment Webber is rolling in his grave. On a daily basis, we witness stories about companies like Enron, the energy giant, where unethical behavior caused great pain and suffering. Its collapse left many of its employees, surrounding communities and investors in ruin. Capitalism has evolved into a devouring monster.
“He is immortal, not because he is alone among creatures has an exhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance.” (Faulkner) Bragg shows many instances of compassion both in his writing and when he talks of his mother. Bragg’s mother was a very compassionate person, always putting others before her and making sure her family has enough clothing and food to live happily. Bragg felt that he had to pay his mother back for everything she sacrificed for him when he was little. “Every winter, I bought her a big, warm, fuzzy bathrobe, the men’s size from Sears, because she was so tall. I bought her a hot-water heater, and another one when it wore out…They were tiny things, inconsequential things.
Mark Bittman’s title “Parasites, Killing Their Host” is basically telling us that the parasites are the large corporations and that the consumers are the hosts. He also says that “Big Food is unwittingly destroying its own market.”. He is right though. Big Food isn’t as smart as they think they are. By making these foods their market is getting smaller because it is destroying the consumers, literally.
Erik Lopez History 120 11/1/2011 I just want to live forever “After Enkidu died I’m very terrified of dying myself, I the great Gilgamesh king of Uruk do not deserve to ever die! Watching Enkidu die has made me fear death. I must find Utnapishtim and find out how I can also be granted immortality before it’s too late and my precious life is killed off. I will go look for him, no matter how long it takes me I will find him and I will find out how to live forever! Somehow after the Great Flood, Utnapishtim and his wife were the only humans to have been granted immortality by the gods, they must know something or have done something to be granted such a reward.
