Race is one way, which affects how people view others. Just how Steve Harmon the main character of the book Monster by Walter Dean Myers who was judged because he is African-American which changed how people view him. Some of the characters in the story call him a monster till he starts believing it himself. Although, Steve Harmon was on trial for felony murder that doesn’t make him a monster as he is innocent and identity is not built from a persons genetics, but from the environment they lived in.

This week I read the book Hero by Mike Lupica. In the book a teenage kid name Zach Harriman. But then one day is life is changes when he finds out that his dad, Tom Harriman, who worked as a special adviser for the president of the United States, was a super hero with super powers. Until he died in a mysterious plane crash on a business trip and the weird thing about it is that in the crash site no bodies were found, which made Zach curious. Zach though that his father’s death was murder. Therefore he wanted to see what actually happened to the plane.

There are numerous times where Steve says he wasn’t there. One example is on page 229 where Steve says, “I know I wasn’t in the drugstore.” Steve said he was never there to Petrocelli while under oath. He doesn’t want to be incarcerated

After Darryl lost his case, he retreats to the pool room where the camera pans across the room nostalgically emphasising his memorabilia - the photo of the family, the Father’s Day mug as we seen earlier in the movie. These things are accumulated as are minder of his values and loss. Then Steve says “Dad, you haven’t let anyone down. I don’t know what the opposite of letting someone down is, but you’ve done the opposite”. His authentic Australian voice suggests the affection and value attached to

Heroes come in many different shapes and sizes. Not all heroes wear capes or have huge logos on their chest but are the ones who go beyond the call of duty. Heroes step up in times of need when most will not. A hero can also be someone who uses their disability to make a difference rather than looking at their disability as a hindrance. I believe Steve Gleason qualifies as the perfect example of this type of hero. Steve Gleason, former New Orleans Saints player, became famous when he blocked a punt versus the Atlanta Falcons during the first game back in the Super Dome. The other reason Steve Gleason is famous is because of his battle with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and how he has used his disability to make a difference. Steve Gleason exemplifies heroic qualities through his courage, altruism, and selflessness.

He was bombarded with death threats for who he was. He was punched so hard he was left with a bloody seven inch gash on the side of his face. Even his teammates did not want to be associated with him anymore. Through this unbearable torture, he still did not shed a single tear. This story belongs to Jackie Robinson, a home run hero.Jackie Robinson, number forty-two, is looked back on as a hero that was an immense part of baseball;Robinson was known for the incredible heroism he showed in baseball and in his community through his fifty-three years of life. Using information from, “What is Heroism,” and, “How Jackie Robinson Changed Baseball,” The reader learns that Jackie Robinson’s heroism is shown from his fight against the social norms of an era filled with discrimination, his courage when people tried to hurt him spiritually and physically, and his personal and his professional sacrifices to be part of baseball.

He was told he’d be moving up to the Rockies after playing in the final game of the season. “It was the best news I’ve ever heard aside from the day I got drafted,” said Martin, “but it came on the worst day of my life.” After playing three solid innings at catcher, a ball was hit up in the air and Steve sprinted towards the stands to try and make the catch, he failed to notice a practice bat on the ground near the stands. Expertly focused on the ball, instead of looking down to checked his surroundings, Steve kept running and ended up tripping on the bat, collapsing in a heap next to his team’s bench. The trainer rushed out and ultimately Steve had to be carried off the field in a stretcher. “The whole time I was thinking to myself, please don’t be my ACL,” Steve recalled. After a visit with the team doctor and a specialist in New York City, it was concluded that his ACL was torn, as well as his MCL, and meniscus. Extensive surgery would be required and Steve would be out of commission for at least a year. Manager for the Isotopes stated that, “I could the see the devastation in his eyes, he’s someone who loved the game so much and it hurt both me and him to see it taken away from him so easily.” After going through the surgery and months off rehab, Steve’s knee still had irreparable damage and after several long meetings with medical staff, it was decided that Steve wouldn’t be able to return to professional

In “The Autonomous Female Self and the Death of Louise Mallard in Kate Chopin’s ‘Story of an Hour,’” Mark Cunningham expresses his opinion on how he believes Mrs. Mallard dies in Chopin’s short story. “The Story of an Hour” was written in the late 1890s, during a time when it was controversial for women to be independent. The ending of her story has created somewhat of a dilemma among readers for years. Some people conclude one ending based on the details and clues Chopin wrote throughout the story, while others come up with a totally different opinion. Mark Cunningham writes a brilliant article on his view of the story’s ending, where he clearly conveys his take on Louis Mallard’s death. Although there are many times when he repeats the same information, Cunningham makes good use of textual evidence and authorities, as well as logic, which makes it easy to agree with his claim.

Steven has been growing up and playing Clash Royale. He enjoys spending money and time on this very extraordinary game. Last week, Steve spent $50 to buy chest to get awards and received 4 legendary cards.

In the book, in one of Steve’s flashbacks on page 149 King says to Steve “yeah, well, you know, I found where the payday is. You know what I mean, You guess? what you are guessing about when i’m so flattered I ain't got enough beer? I need to put together a payroll crew. Get my pockets fat F-A-T. I talked to Bobo and he’s down, he shows correct, but sometimes he act like a spaceman or something.” which mean that during Steve's testimony he lied to Petrocelli when she asks if he had talked to King other than just about basketball.

Michael Scott was the manager of Dunder-Mifflin, a paper company in Scranton, Pennsylvania. The employees in the office would describe him as inappropriate and childlike. He once said, “I guess the atmosphere that I've tried to create here is that I'm a friend first and a boss second, and probably an entertainer third.” Some of my favorite things about Michael are his sense of humor and frankness.

''Start vibrating it will warm you up.'' Said Cisco, barely giving any look to his friend before running over to Caitlin.

Finally, Steve’s last story was about death. At this point I was thinking he had gone through enough and finally was going to gain the happiness he deserved. Unfortunately I was wrong. He had been diagnosed with cancer. He physically saw that in his scan there was a tumor. He went through everything you have to go to when you get diagnosed. He had planned to tell his children, prepare his loved ones, and set everything out for his family. After all he had gone through to live a happy life, there was the brick he was talking about. Eventually Steve had a miracle. The cancer ended up being cured.
