Recommended: Future plans for suspension bridges

Shrek

Dragon on Shrek

Conventionally modern draw bridge or the classic plank overpass…oh and what about this suspension bridge model? Remember what the princess said, “Keep it simple”, so maybe no suspension bridge, for now anyway. Too bad none of her suitors are man enough to wander across that old rickety death trap of a bridge that is already out there, dang nobles don’t even come around but once a decade anyway, I don’t see why I have to make them a bridge to increase their chances of taking my princess. In fact, I wonder if they even know what they are getting themselves into. That girl, high maintenance, how many people could tolerate….

“Dragooonnneeee”

I hate it when she does that, doesn’t she realize that dragons have highly sensitive eardrums. Off to the chamber I go, must she call me when I just start a new project? Trying to fix that old bridge over the lava pit is no cakewalk I hope she realizes…

…Ah yes, I remember where I put that extra rope, it’s in the basement next to the room with the gold…

…“Hang on, I’m coming” schess, that princess acts like a well… like a princess… but she could consider dropping the act any day soon. After all, she will miss me if her prince ever carriers her away…he ha ha…she be so old by that time that if someone did come to rescue her from my evil fire they will take one look at her and quietly sneak out the back moat bridge like a baby dragon with his pointed little tail between his legs.

“What’s up Prissy?” hah, she hates it when I call her that. “I hate it when you call me that” ah oh, is that smirk on her face? Yep, definite smirk, I know I’ve filed that look away in the “up to no good” folder, warning, warning. “Could you fetch me some tomatoes and a head of lettuce for tonight’s supper. Get them out of the back garden if you could please, but no hurry”. Was that a glint of mischief or just the setting sun playing tricks on my eyes, and what is this no hurry stuff, it certainly seemed urgent just a minute ago?“Yah, yah, yah, sure. Hey, did you get your letter that came via vultureculture express, I left it on the table in the dining hall, figured you would see it” she seems a little fidgety, avoiding eye contact, hum, who was that letter from?

  • Understanding Late Medieval Europe: Society, Health and Trade

    1441 Words  | 3 Pages

    Late Medieval Europe was a very different time from what Europe is today. It was a time where social mobility was unthinkable; people lived in fear of their creator, and were always trying to please their creator. In addition, Medieval Europe was an unhealthy and unhygienic state, where sickness and disease was rampant. It was a place where women had little to no rights, and minority groups were frequently falsely accused of many problems that were out of their control. For example, they were blamed for drought, which usually resulted in their unjust persecution because they “angered” God. Overall, Europe was the last place one would want to live unless you were of the nobility. On the other hand, Europe was also a major trading power, engaging

  • Antibiotic Resistance: The Resistance Against The Resistance

    776 Words  | 2 Pages

    Antibiotic resistance can be caused by many things. The most common way in which bacterium build up a defence to antibiotics is by mutation. Mutation of a bacterium is when the DNA make up of the bacterium is altered, this in turn will change the shape of the antigen of a bacterium. Antibiotics will then not be able to inactivate the bacterium as they do not recognise it. One of the most common reasons as to why bacterium mutate is because many people do not finish their course of antibiotics. This is because they feel better so they stop taking the antibiotics, this means the bacterium only get exposed to the antibiotics enough to build up a resistance not enough to cause them to become inactive. Bacterium’s can also release special enzymes that are sent to attack the antibiotics. When doing this the enzymes will engulf the antibiotics which make the bacterium resistant to the treatment. Another way in which bacterium can build up a resistance is by changing how permeable the cell membrane is. In doing this the bacterium is limiting the amount of access points into it. By doing this the antibiotics will struggle to get into the bacterium, making it more resistant.
