Recommended: Eating habits assignment

One cannot be mistaken that a cannoli is loaded with sugar, butter, and eggs like many other desserts and pastries. With all of these fatty substances, which may sound like a turnoff, this treat is very rich. Being rich is acceptable because if a cannoli is rich it resists your urge to overindulge in the treat and end up regretting the decision later on. For example, everyone gets tired of drinking water because it becomes very redundant, but because cannoli’s are rich you will only want to eat them every so often lowering your chances of getting bored with the treat. Although Cannoli’s can be very rich and hard to eat in one sitting, they can be a great fix for your sweet tooth. Instead of reaching for those Oreos or some other processed,

    It is a long-with-standing stereotype that Italians love to gamble. This is true. My great grandfather, Pasquale Giovannone, played the riskiest hand of cards when he immigrated to the United States as an illegal stowaway at the age of thirteen. He forged a life for himself amidst the ever-changing social and political shifts of the early nineteenth century. The legacy he left would later lead to the birth of my father, John Giovannone, in Northern New Jersey in 1962.

  • Gracchi Research Paper

    1008 Words  | 3 Pages

    Tiberius Sempronius Gracchus was born in approximately 163 B.C.E to Tiberius Gracchus the Elder and Cornelia Africana. Gaius Gracchus, his younger brother, was born in 154 B.C.E. In the 2nd century B.C., the two brothers formed “The Gracchi”. The two, born plebeians, belonged to one of the most influential families in Rome, the Sempronia. Their father was the tribune of the plebs, the praetor, consul and censor. Fatherless from a young age, they were taught democratic views by tutors. As they grew older and gained influence, their goal became to restructure Rome in a way that benefited the underprivileged and unfortunate. At the time, their help was especially welcome as members of the Populare, a political group whose purpose was to serve the people, rather than the aristocracy (like the Optimates). The ideals of the Gracchi leaned towards what people today would call populism or socialism; in fact, they are almost reverently called “the founding fathers” (Fife 1) of the aforementioned political parties. The brothers were perhaps so interested in restoring the rights of the people because of the dichotomy of their plebeian births within a noble line.

  • Dean Corll Research Paper

    479 Words  | 1 Pages

    The majority of the casualties of Dean Corll were young boys between the ages of 6 and 20. Dean Corll's first known casualty was a 18-year-old school rookie named Jeffrey Konen, who vanished on September 25, 1970, while catching a ride with another understudy from the College of Texas to his folks' home in Houston. Konen was dropped off alone at the edge of Westheimer Street and South Voss Street close to the Uptown Area of West Houston. At the time, Dean Corll was living in a condo on Yorktown Road close to the crossing point with Westheimer Street. Konen likely acknowledged an offer by Corll to take him to his folks' home in the Braeswood Put West College Put territory. Not at all like Konen, the lion's share of casualties were in their mid-adolescents and most had been stole from Houston Heights, which was then a low-salary neighborhood north west of downtown Houston. One of the casualties, 15-year-old Homer Garcia, met Henley at his driving school and was welcome to Corll's for "a party". Many were recorded by police as runaways regardless of the restless challenges of guardians who demanded that their young men would not flee from home. Frequently the casualties, alone or in sets, were welcome to Corll's gatherings. A few were companions of either Henley or Rivulets and two, Malley Winkle and Billy Baulch, who had really worked for Corll's candy

White people garnered more power and respect than black people in society in this time, which also extended to the court of law. However, race was the only aspect that Mayella had going for her. Although Mayella was white, she was poor and women did not get a lot of respect back in this time period. Mayella had the power to change Tom’s life, but not enough to change her own.

  • Robert Citino's Analysis

    1280 Words  | 3 Pages

    Robert M. Citino's latest work attempts to determine whether there is a uniquely German style of fighting wars. Although he really does not examine the Thirty Years' War so much as its aftermath and the focus until 1871 is, of course, on the Prussian military and not those of other Germanic states, Citino does identify what he considers a German way of war. Citino's thesis is that Prussia, largely due to its position amidst other powers, developed a tradition of fighting "'short and lively' wars" (p. xiii) which emphasized the rapid maneuver and an aggressive spirit of attacking the enemy whenever possible, preferably with a flanking movement of some sort. To achieve this latter objective, field commanders were given considerable leeway to
