She walks in beauty like the night, her face is brighter than all light and the sun clouds in comparison to her, she makes all of mankind stir.

Arts & Humanities > 19th Century US History Investigating the causes and effects of the Civil War: 6 of 18

Was the Civil War a Just War? The Civil War was the worst atrocity our country has ever faced.

Society & Lifestyle > Morals, Values & Norms (Other) What is the definition of "awesome" in today's society?: 1 of 3

"Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost." These words by John Quincy Adams have never rung truer. The man or woman who votes based on principle and not on party is the man or woman who doesn't waste his or her vote. It is hard to find a p...
Entertainment > Movie Remakes & Adaptations Investigating changes made for the movie adaptations of Harry Potter books: 2 of 4

The Harry Potter series is considered one of the greatest fantasy series of all time. Just like the British fantasy series of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, the Harry Potter series has gathered a loyal and almost legalistic following. I remember when the first movie came out, I happened to be extremely sick and was later rus...
