Title: Tanana River Artist: David Mollett Medium: Fast Dry Alkyd Oil on Canvas Dimensions: n/a Date: Description David Mollett creates a work of art directly influenced by nature in his painting the Tanana River. The Alaska Range can be seen in the background, jagged, majestic and aged, covered with termination dust. The warmer ground below the range shows the result of cooler air flowing off the mountains, forming ground fog at the base of the mountains.

The viewer is guided toward the large piece of driftwood in the foreground.
In "Natural Bridge/Rogue River Canyon," Paul Halupa draws a picture of two dominate forces, a wall of lava and a river. Both the lava and the river are metaphors, lava being the inevitable end of life and the river is the present life that is unstoppable; raging towards the lava. Halupa overall tone isn't sad, but understanding. He understands that people work hard all their life; moving fast and not appreciating how short life is. Halupa’s poem expresses the human condition is like a match, it has an explosive start, then stays consistent till it slows down and burns out.
In the article of the week The Wrong Way to “Think about California Water” by Michael Hiltzik, Hiltzik explains why we are thinking about California's water the wrong way. He gives several reasons why we are thinking about California's drought the wrong way that seem to significant , but my family can cut back on water usage using these same principles. First, even when he said that water bottles are not the significant causes of water usage they still are a portion of that water usage.

Another way we could save water is to use more drought resistant plants, or fake plants.

The film is one of the more interesting war films because its main characters are not the soldiers, but the people affected by the loss that war brought them.

This could be seen on how the British were exploiting the Indian’s resources and through cheap labor. The film reflects the labor of Indian immigrants in the scene where they were protesting by refusing to go back and work in the mines and were charged at by the British on horseback. This act of violent of the British in terms of unjust labor can also be identify in the French Africa “natives” who were legally obligated for statute labor, a practice that lasted though 1946. It involves the harsh condition of labor in the colonial life where British officials would make the native villagers work a lot and mistreated them in the process similar to how the Indians immigrants were being treated (Pg. 894). Along with this, we could see how Gandhi had dealt with the economic regulation by his protest of the British mercantile system.
