At the beginning of the book, Gandalf tricks Bilbo into hosting a party for Thorin and his band of twelve dwarves, who sing songs of old, which spoke of reclaiming the Lonely Mountain and its vast treasure from the dragon Smaug. When the music ends, Gandalf shows them a map showing a secret door into the Mountain and nominated the speechless Bilbo to serve as the expedition's "burglar". The dwarves make fun of the idea, but Bilbo, annoyed, joins despite himself. The group travel into the wild, where Gandalf saves them from trolls and leads them to Rivendell, where Elrond (an important elf), reveals more secrets from the map. Passing over the Misty Mountains, they are caught by goblins and forced to march deep

He is finally able to make meaningful use of his heroic abilities when he gets the call for adventure. The first call is made evident when Beowulf hears of the troubles in the hall of Heorot in Denmark. An angry beast by the name Grendel has been entering the hall in the middle of the night and taking the lives of many men.

Strangely, none of Arthur’s knights have the courage to accept the challenge. Finally, Gawain steps up to accept the challenge to take his king’s place, setting the rest of Morgan’s plot in motion. Morgan manipulates Sir Gawain’s duty to the chivalric code by instigating the Green Knight against Arthur and his court. She singles out one of Arthur’s knights, which eventually leads him to a future dilemma at the Green Knight’s court. Her other role in the poem, as the old woman who frequently accompanies Lady Bertilak in the castle, is essential for establishing Gawain’s relationship with her before the second Beheading Game.

When the inventor learns this he goes on a rampage and burns numerous Morlocks and saves Weena. The inventor had killed many Morlocks out of anger and fright. He really didn’t have to kill them, but he was angry at the Morlocks. Even after he saved Weena he set an explosion to kill all of the Morlocks. This proves Lincoln’s quote’s interpretation that when someone is angry they’re irrational and not themselves.
Professional snowboarders are the outer shell of our sport. X-Games, Olympics, Dew Tour, and many other competitions are where they lay their heads to rest. A year round occupation always searching for gold anywhere snow my lie, snowboarders will always be there Shaun White got real good real fast earning twenty six different gold medals from competitions around the world including the Olympics. The men who hold this sport together not only out perform all of the other categories but hold a standard of “first of last mentality.” They all started small and had their fun on the way to the top paying the price of defeat and misstep.

His task seems nearly impossible; to be the first man to put a step in he North Pole, just guided by his intuition and motivated by a desire of fame and glory.

Suddenly, the trip to the artic stopped when the ship crushed with an iceberg, probably because captain Robert only noticed half of the sea and didn’t spot the iceberg (remember he had only one eye).
