In South Park, almost everyone was a monster. Of course, they never had the intentions to hurt anybody, they were mostly normal. Well, aside from their animal ears, or devil horns, or even fairy wings! The teens of South Park were often quite proud of their forms, and their mates were often even prouder. Kenny Mccormick was a Dark Angel. Just like a Light Angel, except with black wings, a black halo, and he was always able to seduce whomever he wished. Kenny is still a player, wanting to mate with
“The people screaming on this side, and the people screaming on that side are the same people. And it’s okay to be somewhat in the middle, laughing at both of them”.

Introduction The South Carolina coastal Wetlands through the animals, the plants, and the other factors make these Wetlands unique as any human being in the world. The biodiversity of plants and animals that call this incredibly ecosystem home are as incredibly as the ecosystem itself. Something as strong and powerful as an ecosystem that can be out of balance because the lack of an animal is amazing and can only be a way of life. Abiotic factors The abiotic Factors are the physical features of that
Floating treatment wetlands are a manmade ecosystem that mimic natural wetlands (David J. Sample, 2013) and are used to increase the water quality of lakes (SWCD, 2017). The wetlands focus on the excess of nutrients in the water as well as it can increase the biodiversity throughout the lake (SWCD, 2017). These floating wetlands can help control the amount of nutrients throughout the pond using nutrient uptake. (SWCD, 2017). Floating treatment wetlands have been used because they can be used at a
I chose Wetlands to be my 3rd grade unit theme. The content of wetlands will be carried across many content areas, such as, math, science, social studies, and language arts. Wetlands are commonly only a science topic, but through the use of seed strategies and informational reading, all subject areas can be explored. This theme is full of science concepts. To deepen science knowledge, as well as art understanding, students will participate in the Visual Arts Seed Strategy,” Habitat 3-D.” This
Burns Bog is a domed bog which is approximately 3000 hectares in size and is mostly covered by peat. Under this peat, is a layer of deltaic sand which was deposited from the creation of the Fraser River over 5000 years ago (Comprehensive Guide to Burns Bog). This was when the Fraser River was a low wetland and as flooding occurred, sediments were carried and accumulated. Over the past 150 years, dykes and draining changes have impacted the vegetation (more dryer plants). This is a reason why only
While wetland loss is happening globally, the destruction is most severe in the forty-eight conterminous United States where almost half of the wetlands were lost by the middle of the 1980’s. Over the past thirty years “the wetlands have been recognized as complex, diverse ecosystems whose functions provide an incredible range of beneficial functions and services within the landscape” (BenDor et al. 342). Areas where wetlands were once located were considered wastelands and little was done to protect
marshes along these avenues and kills the marsh grasses that holds the soil in place”. The saltwater is annihilating the grasses in the marshes when they’re killed; the soil that the plant’s roots are holding together vanishes. In addition to saltwater intrusion, numerous of vast holes created from oil drilling underneath the marshes. In many of these areas the marshes steadily sink as a result of the earth’s crust not being able to hold the weight of the marsh. Rivers have dams to make reservoirs,
Throughout history the United States did not recognize the the numerous benefits wetlands provided us such as groundwater purification, flood protection, shoreline stabilization, groundwater aquifer recharge, source of sustainable biodiversity, education, and wildlife habitats. Therefore during the industrial revolution people began draining the wetlands for agricultural purposes, digging up the wetlands and making them into roads, commercial and residential developments, and that resulted in a major

Ambiguity is the characteristic of a word, phrase, or book that can be understood in multiple ways. Henry James, during the middle part of his career, incorporated this type of vagueness into his writing. One of James's most debatable use of ambiguity was a ghost story. In the novella The Turn of the Screw, Henry James uses conflict, perspective, and ambiguity to create a mystery, with his own twist, for the reader to solve and leave them guessing. James, through conflicts involving the children

Right off the bat I conclude that these super heroes are strong, intelligent, handsome/pretty, and daring. When looking even closer at them, many different qualities become apparent such as honesty, bravery, courage and selflessness. The
Comics is one of the most misunderstood art forms. There are many definitions of what a comic can be, many forms comics can take, and a more significant history to comics than one would expect. Many misconceptions surround comics and what a comic is, such as the perception of the stereotypical comic strip of a superhero saving the day; I myself never honestly gave comics a second thought and accepted this idea of them. Being able to define and understand comics brings a new light on the significance
