The large front windows were painted with signs for today’s specials. Lean beef mince perfect for low fat diet, winter roasts - rolled roast beef, leg of lamb and pork. With Thanksgiving holiday just finished, turkey and ham stayed on special for Christmas. Made me hungry just thinking about it. I wondered if Cutlers still owned it or if it had been sold. The extra wide main street was like hundreds of small country towns in the United States. Though I’d seen during my earthly missions, the cars and pickups angle parked outside the main shopping precinct still held appeal. There had been an effort by the local council to decorate the street by installing large concrete planter pots, which overflowed with colorful flowers in the summer months-but

William Clark was ½ of the genius team that made their way through miles of unknown land, unknown nature, unknown natives, and came home with all but one voyager, who was killed of natural causes. William Clark and Meriwether Lewis were the first Americans to try and map the Louisiana Purchase area, and not only did they map it, they discovered allies, new plants and animals, and discovered new land and water routes that could be useful for future travelers.
Edward Barry Dalton is the only member of the regiment to have been the subject of a previously published work. A short biography including a selection of the surgeon’s wartime official correspondence entitled Memorial of Edward B. Dalton M.D. was complied and published as a tribute by his brother John Call Dalton shortly after his death in 1872. (John Call Dalton, Memorial of Edward B. Dalton)
In The United States the number of people in prison is over two million, and of those two million it is estimated that two thirds of them will be back in prison within three years (Correctional Populations). Some people argue that rehabilitation is the most effective way to handle prisoners, but the risks don’t outweigh the benefits, especially for murderers. Nobles was an example of a murderer who appeared rehabilitated, but under close examination of his actions, he was no more than a manipulating sociopath. Nobles was not rehabilitated because his actions in court showed how he felt, his faith was a facade, and he was a schizophrenic.
Richard Taylor was a Confederate soldier. He followed after his dad’s footsteps and became a great man and one that many will remember. He made the Confederates proud by leading them to a lot of victories.
Home to a charming main street dotted with a variety of stores, great dining and charming small-town shops, the Town Center of Nocatee is a Master Planned version of a traditional walkable-downtown city center.
According to Buckser (1992), the term “lynching” was derived from a Revolutionary War Virginia militia colonel, Charles Lynch. Lynch, at this time, came up with an “unofficial justice system” that punished suspected criminals and thieves through whippings; this later became known as “Lynch’s law”. He also mentions that during the eighteenth and nineteenth century, writers used a form of public humiliation known as charivari (12). These ridicule- based punishments were typically against people who transgressed the community norm. Buckser (1992) also noted that by the 1830s writers began to see a change when the frequency and severity of lynch laws increased. They attributed this increase to the rise
In the distance, the faint roar of train whistles can be heard, followed by the gentle hum of a car engine as it passes by. In their original configuration, small buildings and shops outline the narrow streets, encircled by an array of hickory and oak trees. Just below the horizon, rolling, grassy hills guide the boundary for evergreen bushes and plants. The soothing breeze hints the scent of burnt firewood and pine, followed by the calming vibration of an airplane overpass. From an isometric perspective, the narrow streets lead to a tall colonial tower, which features a grand, Roman clock. For centuries, the population of Westfield has preserved the town with a primitive theme, showcasing the historic roots and glory of early American
It is important for people to have names, because your name and describes who you are and shapes your identity. I am Charles Fredrick Burke Anderson. I may have common names, but they come from a proud heritage. My name Charles has a long history, and many people have my name, but each person with the name Charles has his own history of how or why he got that name. Even though many people have the same name as me, we are all one of a kind.
Postrel develops her support of national retailers throughout the essay, offering the opinion that it isn’t the stores that give places their character, but instead, aspects like the terrain, weather and culture that do (Postrel 347). While terrain, weather and culture can set apart regions, such as New England from The Deep South, and Southern California from the Midwest, it’s the community that gives each town their own special character. A community consists of the residents, their restaurants, hardware stores, pharmacies, ice cream parlors, farmers markets, and so on. These places, and the interactions that occur daily at each establishment, are the fabric that differentiate them, and create the breeding ground for diverse characteristics to flourish. While Postrel argues that wildly different business establishments across America in the past is a myth , it’s actually not necessarily that the products that varied from store to store, but more the aforementioned factors that truly set ...
Each floor I stopped at had a variety of stores. From eery-looking stores selling Halloween and magic merchandise to a magazine shop selling vintage Playboys and Time magazines from the 40s, to a saloon that invited customers, every corner filled up with something worth staring at or dropping my jaw on. Tibetan artefacts, leather bags, indie artist studios, thrift shops, liquor stores, stationary, carpentry shops, jewellery stores, clothing like t-shirts, hats, ties, and belts, pet care, human care, hair styles, Seattle mementoes, and thousands of other little and large shops lit up as customers
The warming atmosphere is one of a kind. Behind the counter are the caring faces of not just a worker, but a friend. Regular guests are called by name, sharing stories of families and the past week with the welcoming employees. Sitting all around in tables and booths are patrons from every category. Beside the window on a high table to the left is a lawyer, to the right is a mother and her two kids. In a booth in the back is a construction worker still covered slightly in concrete from a road job he had been working on back on 19th Street. All of these, enjoying a delicious meal of their special combination.

Now these stores you won’t find at a mall and only downtown has them. I love exploring each and every one of the stores. On one store they may be selling colorful figurines and a collection of vivid detail blankets and the store next to it may be selling clothes or electronics from blenders to HD televisions. One of the many reasons I like to go into the stores is to glance at the way they’re decorated. It’s just amazing
According to Oliver Sacks website, he is a renowned neurologist. Also, Sacks is a professor of neurology at the NYU school of medicine. After reading through some paragraphs in his website I can identify that he refers to his patients in a "heartwarming" way. This says a lot of Sachs character. It makes him a credible person because as a reader I noticed that he cares about his patience not only for the scientific matter but as humans he cares. The New York Times also sees this quality of Dr.Sacks, he 'illuminated their characters as much as their conditions" (1). Other people can judge to quick and don't see past the disease. Sack's doesn't he cheers them up and makes sure they know they are not going insane. I also read that he was basically fired from his medical career because he would loose samples as he
