- Extrusive rock refers to the mode of igneous volcanic rock formation in which hot magma from inside the Earth flows out (extrudes) onto the surface as lava or explodes violently into the atmosphere to fall back as pyroclastics or tuff. In contrast, intrusive rock refers to rocks formed by magma which cools below the surface.
- An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge (Wikipedia)
“An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” is an 1890 short story by American writer and American Civil War veteran Ambrose Bierce, described as “one of the most famous and frequently anthologized stories in American literature”. It was originally published by the San Francisco Examiner on July 13, 1890, and was first collected in Bierce’s book Tales of Soldiers and Civilians (1891). Bierce’s abandonment of strict linear narration in favor of the internal mind of the protagonist is an early example of the stream-of-consciousness narrative mode.
