In his twenties, he wrote a book entitled “Ridge Cliff Manor” that explained how he viewed the mansion as a kid, haunted and filled with secrets. Arial Ruffins mentions that after the release of “Ridge Cliff Manor,” Upp bought Rivercene and turned it into the haunted bed and breakfast that the mansion is today (KOMU). Even though Upp wasn’t the one who built Rivercene, his actions still made an impact on its legacy. Without the publication of his book and hard work, Rivercene would not be famous for his hauntings. Which proves that both Kinney and Upp’s persevering actions led to the creation of Rivercene’s

Society defines home as “a house, apartment, or other shelter. It is the usual residence of a person, family, or household” (“Home”). In The Glass Castle, Jeannette’s definition of home suggests that it is a place for friends, comfort, love, happiness, and financial security. However, home is a complicated topic that can be interpreted in many ways. The Glass Castle clearly describes the pessimistic attributes of home, such as a lack of support and poor parenting.
The area of the Khina culture is a plateau region in the mountains, surrounded by slopes and lots of rocks located in central Africa. The group living in the region is a pastoralism/early agriculture-based society, needing to grow food and collect supplies to prepare and cultivate their crops. It has been well documented that the transition into agriculture was very hard on humans as a whole, all around the world, and this would have been no different living where the Khina people lived. While little formal and recent archaeological excavations have been done in the area, the ethnographic record with recorded accounts from around the 1920s is extensive and provides a lot of information about what could be expected in an excavation of the area
Kanye West is our Elvis Presley. Much like how Elvis altered and spread rock n’ roll, Kanye West has laid the foundation for modern hip-hop. When I say Kanye West, you think of narcissism and ego and god-complex. You think of him taking to the stage to say that George Bush “doesn’t care about black people” at a Hurricane Katrina relief broadcast. You think of the 2009 VMA’s where he famously interrupted Taylor Swift.

It became famous, but some people wouldn’t go there because the Prophet was from the museum. Clark created the museum when he was thinking of his boyfriend, Robert, while looking out at a line of planes in the Skymiles Lounge of the airport. “If Robert were here--Christ, if only--if Robert were here, he’d probably fill the shelves with artifacts and start an impromptu museum” (254). He puts things that are no longer useful from the old world into shelves that had glass display cases. At first, he just laid the objects side by side under the glass.

Many things went wrong with Elvis’ cover up of his death and funeral; for example, his funeral was two days after his death, he had a 900 pound casket already made, his weight was wrong on his death certificate, his death certificate was dated two months after his real death, and his headstone was spelled wrong. Elvis always had people or things to cover him, like at his funeral, his hands were smooth, his eyebrows were arched, he had a pug shaped nose, his sideburns were falling off, no cameras were allowed at his funeral, and someone that looked exactly like him, named John Burrows, bought plane tickets to Buenos Aires with cash. Lastly, Elvis had many reasons to want a change, or a different life because he never received great medical attention since his fans always wanted to check up on him, he never got lots of rest due to his fans, and on behalf of his fans, he felt his wife and daughter were always in great danger. Elvis Presley may not have only faked his death just once, but

Annually, millions of people travel to northern France to view the grand and pompous Baroque style of the Palace of Versailles’s Hall of Mirrors. Built in 1698 during the reign of Louis XIV, the Palace of Versailles stood for over 100 years as “the primary residence of the kings of France and the seat of the government,” and in 1979, the Palace of Versailles and its gardens were decreed a World Heritage site by the UNESCO. An examination of the Palace’s Hall of Mirrors will reveal a dramatic use of light, symmetry, large-scale frescoes, a shell for painting, sculpture, and stucco, and an opulent use of rich color and accessories common to a French Baroque-style interior. Louis XII (r. 1610 - 1643) used the initial residence as a hunting lodge and retreat for his family, and in 1624, he commissioned Jacques Lemercier to build a chateau on the site, which remains as “the exterior façade overlooking the Marble Court.” From 1661 to 1710, Louis XIV oversaw the residential transformation of the majestic complex surrounded by gardens.
