Another local-color characteristic that Harte used in Tennessee’s Partner was the development of characters based on their setting. The reader never feels like he knows much at all about any of the characters – even Tennessee and his partner – at all. In fact, neither does the narrator. But through the use of description, the two main characters become more stereotypes of miners in the Gold Rush era; they were typical rugged, gambling, scorched-skinned, strong, simple womanizing men.

In “The Blue Hotel” and “The Worn Path”, a common denominator is witnessed, which is the apprehensive and antagonistic environment that both short stories possess. Although the Swede was “off his rocker” in “The Blue Hotel” due to his naive and fictions representation of what he believed Nebraska would be, the atmosphere was just as colossal a factor. Surrounded by a cowboy, the owner of the hotel, his son, and an easterner, the Swede was determined that he was experiencing the “Old West”, that he had read about and viewed in dime-store westerns. Because of his adolescent belief, he concluded that they were conspiring to dispose of him. Between the setting and his idea of what the west would be, it caused him to undergo a state of schizophrenia. Mirroring that of the Blue

When making his decision, McGregor should consider seriously the negative consequences that his business will experience if he refuses Alward’s offer to fill the motel for the two weekend nights in October, at half the room rate. If McGregor refuses, during that weekend his motel will be at his usual capacity of less than quarter full. With the church group there, paying half the rate, it will be as if the motel were half-full!

Consequently, Justin McGregor should accept Alward’s offer but under the following two

He goes to a nearby bar and boasts about his victory and eventually gets himself in a fight with a gambler; and Swede eventually is killed. The central idea behind the action in the story is

“Hotel California” by The Eagles has been the recipient of much speculation since its release in 1976. Although many other interpretations exist including some which claim this song to be referencing drugs, much evidence suggests that “Hotel California” is, at least partly, making a statement about the lifestyle of drug and alcohol users particularly in the large cities of California.

Even if one feels they may have 'gotten away ' with a crime, the weight of a person’s conscience cannot be concealed. In someone’s life, too much power and control combined with a person’s conscience in a person’s life can and will lead to an imbalance and perhaps insanity as in the short story “The Tell-Tale Heart”. Edgar Allan Poe demonstrates how the narrator in this story goes through the greed and need for control, leading to his insanity that results in extreme guilt.

Blue Mountain Resorts were first built in 1941, and it is the largest family-operated ski resort in Canada.

Therefore, to provide the night skiing service, investing in hills and lifts are important factors. So, if the CEO decides to install the night skiing facilities, he needs to decide the price of the single-night lift ticket

Mrs. Wright sat there on her chair and pleaded guilty to committing the crime in the most nonchalant way possible. “Mr. Hale: ’Cause he's dead," says she. "Dead?" says I. She just nodded her head, not getting a bit excited, but rockin' back and forth. "Why--where is he?" says I, not knowing what to say. She just pointed upstairs--like that [himself pointing to the room above]. I got up, with the idea of going up there. I walked from there to here--then I says, "Why, what did he die of?" "He died of a rope round his neck," says she, and just went on pleatin' at her apron…” (Glaspell, Trifles). Mrs. Wright was just sitting there in her rocking chair looking calm, cool, and collective not giving a care in the world about what she had just done. When Mr. Hale comes walking in asking about her husband and if he’s home she just responds with a simple yes and pretty much blurts out that she murdered her husband. She knew exactly what she did and the reasons for why she did it and for that she was not about to run because at this point in her life even though she was now going to be sent to
