Argumentative Essay: Jake's Dinner Party

Over time, many have realized that people have the power to change others, however some believe that people cannot and will not change. One side of this argument is that though people will be the same their whole life, and never change. On the contrary, people have been changed by others over time and throughout history. It is a fact of life that people have the power to change others through their actions, perspectives, and ability to persuade their point of view.

The kids drop Santa down the chute, and an evil laugh rises from the darkness. “A poker game we shall play, but you must know, dear Santa, that I do not play fair!” the Oogie Boogie exclaims.

Joseph is a redshirt senior who has appeared in 41 games for UConn, while registering 260 total tackles and 11.5 tackles for loss. Joseph is the leader of the defense and is responsible for lining of the linemen and linebackers. Joseph is active in run defense and has the ability to cover some tight ends and slower running backs. Joseph does not posses elite athleticism, which has turned into an essential trait for inside linebackers to succeed in the NFL today. Joseph plays sideline-to-sideline but does not have the speed to track down offensive players who breakthrough on the outside. Joseph will get a chance at the next level, but I believe there are stronger candidates for the 2018 Senior Bowl due to Joseph’s lack of athleticism.

The question on why was T. Hall got singled out for scrutiny is not a simple one in my eyes. T. Hall may have been singled out for a number of reasons. The first being because T. Hall was crossing dressing thus causing confusing within the community. The second being T. Hall born as a hermaphrodite (or intersexed) and saw herself/himself as both a man and a woman which put him/her under more scrutiny, although this only came into light after she/he was under scrutiny . One of Last thing I understood being reading the information is because she/he would take on the roles of both a male and female at different points throughout life. This caused T. Hall’s neighbors to have a trail to try to help them with the indentation of T. Hall’s role/place

Yesterday, Knife Party’s Rob Swire gave fans a scare when he announced through Twitter that he had lost hearing in his left ear. “I have randomly become completely deaf in the left ear. Super lame. Gonna go see a doctor,” he tweeted, leaving fans and fellow musicians to ponder what the outcome would be; not only for Swire, but for Knife Party’s future as well. While Swire waited until late Monday to update fans on his condition, messages of support immediately began pouring in; producer/DJ Jordy Dazz tweeted, “Dude what? That’s horrible. Get well soon.” While DJ TeeBee shared ,” ugh , had that last summer. Infection in a fluid chamber inner ear. Hope it is a quick fix. Good luck.”

Comment: To avoid any more drastic cuts and burning through the cash reserves, we will need to bring in a higher sales tax immediately. The difficulty of placing a higher sale tax is getting Legislature to approve this. My colleagues and I have been consistent with attending conferences in Sacramento and Washington D.C. seeking for advocates to help with funding VTA. VTA faces a projected $6 billion deficit over the next two decades if we don’t get an approval for high sales tax. If this doesn’t work out, we will continue to cut more services in order to keep VTA doors open.

Sexual thoughts pop in and out of most people’s mind, but especially teenagers, and there’s nothing they can do about it. It is normal for teenage boys and girls to experience this, more than ever when they are hitting puberty. The hormones in the body begin to act up and teenagers want to experience other things on their own. Males begin to grow pubic and facial hairs, and their voice starts to deepen, while girls’ breasts begin to develop and their body begins to take shape. After hitting puberty, teenagers are now at the point where they want to experience things. ‚Don’t go out there and get pregnant‛ a mother
