Gulliver's Travels Summary. Gulliver goes on four separate voyages in Gulliver's Travels. Each journey is preceded by a storm. All four voyages bring new perspectives to Gulliver's life and new opportunities for satirizing the ways of England. The first voyage is to Lilliput, where Gulliver is huge and the Lilliputians are small. At first the Lilliputians seem amiable, but the reader soon sees them for the ridiculous and petty creatures they are. Gulliver is convicted of treason for "making water" in the capital (even though he was putting out a fire and saving countless lives)--among other "crimes. " The second voyage is to Brobdingnag, a land of Giants where Gulliver seems as small as the Lilliputians were to him. Gulliver's third voyage is to Laputa (and neighboring Luggnagg and Glubdugdribb).
His fourth voyage is to the land of the Houyhnhnms, who are horses endowed with reason. Plot Summary Gullivers Travels by Jonathan Swift by John Roberts. John Roberts's image for: "Plot Summary Gullivers Travels by Jonathan Swift" Caption: Location: Image by: "Gulliver's Travels" tells of the adventures of Lemuel Gulliver, an English surgeon whose failed business and wanderlust causes him to go to sea. During his first voyage, Gulliver's ship is struck by a severe storm leaving him shipwrecked on an island called Lilliput.
Lilliput engages in a war against neighboring Blefusco because the two nations cannot agree on the proper method for cracking eggs. Following a two-month reunion with wife and family, Gulliver sets sail again only to be shipwrecked at Brobdingnag where he is a tiny creature among giants. His family cannot dissuade Gulliver's compulsion to go to sea in exploration.

It's easy to forget that just a handful of years ago most people didn't have a cellphone, never mind one that's better termed a handheld computer. No one had laptops when I was in college (graduated high school in '96) and few people had broadband connections for years after that. Shoot, jump another decade before that and people were placing their calls using a rotary dial — one painful number at a time.
When my father was a boy, technology such as cellphones, iPads and Twitter were still imperfectly defined nascent dreams from the pages of science-fiction magazines and periodicals. Technology is moving increasingly fast. One of the videos in our collection was run in 1993 by AT&T and proposed a series of technologies that, at the time had the taste of sci-fi but now are things that many of us use every day. We're making the leap from "Gee whiz, wouldn't it be neat if we could do this someday? " Cellphones $3,300 in 1986 money is the same as around $6,663 today.

Finish Your Meal In Thailand / The Philippines / China What the hell? What the hell? 10 false facts most people think are true. Up until the late 16th century, everyone "knew" that the sun and planets revolved around the Earth. Up until the late 19th century, epidemic illnesses such as cholera and the plague were "known" to be caused by a poisonous mist filled with particles from rotting things. Up until the early 20th century, the most common procedure performed by surgeons for thousands of years was bloodletting, because we "knew" that blood drained from the body balanced the whacky humors responsible for poor health. Well alrighty then. But as misinformed as all that may sound now, our predecessors believed these "facts" with the same certainty that we believe that the Earth is round and hot fudge sundaes make us fat.
Living in a time of such dazzling science and technology, we stand firmly behind our beliefs … even if so much of what we think we know to be correct is actually wrong. 1.

A lot of cake's that I have experimented with before are like a vanilla cake with bits of Oreo in them, which didn't really give them enough Oreo flavor. But these were a lot better. I used a dark chocolate fudge cake mix instead of just a regular chocolate cake mix, which went really well with the cookies and gave the cakes just a little more flavor. So, in this recipe there is Oreo's in the cake, in the frosting, and at the bottom is a Oreo surprise. That's right, you put a whole Oreo at the bottom of the cake. Ingredients 1 package Oreo Cookies, regular size 1 package Mini Oreo Cookies, for decoration (optional) 1 package chocolate cake mix (mix according to directions on box) 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature 1/2 cup butter (1 stick), room temperature 3 3/4 cups powdered sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract cupcake liners Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
