The smell of death.\n\nThere's nothing else like it.\n\nAnd it's the hardest thing to deal with, especially when you make a living cleaning up after death.\n\nMarshall Mulloy, the owner of Paul Davis Restoration in the Philadelphia suburbs knows the smell well.\n\n"It's hard to cope with death and it's a depressing thing to have to go in after a suicide or homicide or even a natural death," he says. "The odor of the aftermath is something you don't forget."\n\nMulloy says his company has cleaned just about everything, including vehicles.\n\n"I've even done cars that were totaled after a deer went through the windshield," he says. "We've had guys that shot themselves in the head in their car and have cleaned it up for auction."\n\nhttp://www.officer.com/article/article.jsp?siteSection=18&id=26242

Looks like it was Jack Vance in his Dying Earth novels. "Vance probably took the name from an archaic/dialectal English verb meaning shudder, now most commonly encountered in the word 'gruesome'."

Hi,\nthe evidence you give is OK but there are billions of more examples. Here are some.\n1. Atticus' modesty: read the chapter about the dog shooting again and Jem's final words.\n\n2. Atticus' direct answers to direct questions 'what's rape?'\n\n3. His reasonable strictures: 'leave the Radleys alone'\n\n4. The way he makes Scout read to Miss Dubose and see an example of 'true bravery'\n\n5. 'turning the other cheek' when spat uopn by Ewell\n\nAll these can be reflected against the main event which is of course Tom's trial. \n\nAtticus is a father who gives his children an example in life: a way of life that shows it is wrong to persecute, be prejudiced, and that it is right to be modest, discreet and to stand up against oppression of the underdog, \n\nIn short he shows his children that it is a sin to kill a monckingbird, and no one can ask anymore than that surely as an example?\n\nDan

She's afraid she will become a lesbian. \nFootnote: Harper Lee based her characters on people she knew and the town on Monroeville, AL. Atticus was based on her father, Dill was Truman Capote. There have been rumors for decades that Capote actually wrote the book and let his childhood friend Harper Lee submit it for publication for herself.

1.point of view :Scout narrates in the first person, telling what she saw and heard at the time and augmenting this narration with thoughts and assesments of her experiences in retrospect. Although she is by no means an omniscient narrator, she has matured considerably over the  years and often implicitly and humorously comments on the naïveté she displayed in her thoughts and actions as a young girl. Scout mostly tells of her own thoughts but also devotes considerable time to recounting and analyzing Jem’s thoughts and actions.(taken from sparknotes.com)\n2.Maycomb county\n3.The town believes that a mad person named Boo Radley lived inside.People said he went out at night when the moon was high and peeped in windows....Any stealthy crimes commited in Maycomb were his work.And so on.You are right.it was due to gossips.\n4.They thought that he once, while cutting articles out of the newspaper for his scrapbook, plunged his pair of scissors into his father's leg.Jem also believes that Boo had died and was stuffed up the chimney.And so on...\n5.It is YOUR impression....I personally don't know.\n6.The way they talk,of course...\n\n7.championship?\n\n8.You never really understand a person until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.(consider things from their point of view.)\n9.Of course.But there should be more of his type of character today.\n\n10.He wouldn't.He asks them not to torment Boo Radley.\n\n11.She is trustworthy and does not gossip like the other women in town.She is honest and upright like Atticus.

i think its trying to just be a narrative poem telling the story of two mockingbirds that became gods and blessed people who were unwilling to become gods themselves. Its dort of a poem of self discovery.

John dies.  It is good to know that they are still reading this book.  I haven't read it in about 40 years.  But it made an effect on me.\n'Live while you are alive, then die and be done with it'\n\nI think that was John's saying, wasn't it?

The context has two elements (at least)\n\na) The temporal and spatial time of its writing.\nb) The large body of words/verses which define and are defined by it.\nIn this case, the jews have suffered a humiliating, devasting loss. Part of their grief is expressed in highly charged, emotional curses. You see much of this in Mid-East funerals today where guns are fired and eternal vengeance is vowed. This not a prescriptive passage, but a descriptive one of sorrow/rage. \nYou are right to ask about contest.

Topic? Like a summary?\n\nHamlets father is killed by his uncle. His uncle becomes his stepdaddy. Hamlet wants revenge and to be the next king.\n\nHamlet is known for a lot of soliloquies. (My whole AP Lit Class could chose had to memorize their own) \n\nFor a research paper, choose one of the soliloquies and write about that, you should rewrite it in normal "speech" and research about the allusions used. There paper practically done.

Harper Lee's, To Kill a Mockingbird.\n\nI have found  10+  summaries for you to look at, via the links below.\n\nhttp://www.lausd.k12.ca.us/Belmont_HS/tkm/\n\nhttp://www.awerty.addr.com/tokill2.html\n\nhttp://www.freebooknotes.com/book.php3?id=411\n\nhttp://www.antistudy.com/search.php?title=To+Kill+a+Mockingbird\n\nhttp://www.onlineessays.com/essays/literature/lit186.php\n\nThese links will give you a summary of the book, character analysis, plot and much more, so that you will be able to answer literary questions.  Here is a short extract of what you can expect from the summaries.\n\nContext\n\nNelle Harper Lee was born on April 28, 1926, in Monroeville, Alabama, a sleepy small town similar in many ways to Maycomb, the setting of To Kill a Mockingbird. Like Atticus Finch, the father of Scout, the narrator and protagonist of To Kill a Mockingbird, Lee’s father was a lawyer. Among Lee’s childhood friends was the future novelist and essayist Truman Capote, from whom she drew inspiration for the character Dill. \n\nhttp://www.freebooknotes.com/page.php?link=http://www.sparknotes.com/lit/mocking/&book=411\n\nGood luck.\n\nKevin, Liverpool, England.

1. I have a prescription for my vitamins.\n2. When you transport a prisoner, he may be difficult to pacify.\n3. I tried to read a scribble in my notebook, but I couldn't understand it; it looked like complete nonsense.\n4. During the antebellum, the rebel forces were increasingly hostile.\n5.  I can still remember when the portable cd player was a novelty.\n\nLike that?\nI don't know if no. 4 is a very good sentence, I'm afraid I don't really know much about the American Civil war.
