When you see yourself living out your dream, the thought of what you're most passionate about pulls you in. Passions in one's life change based on what had affected that person. Dreams are defined to change. However, the benefits of these thoughts is that they belong to you and only you. Not one person's opinions matter but your own. Chris McCandless simply was living out his own ideal life, the way he wanted; not to the idea of his parents, his friends or of society. McCandless wanted to escape society and civilization which he felt was tying him down, while also trying to discover himself. McCandless is not by any means a wacko. He was simply defying society and its ideal expectation it holds upon us as a whole.

A huge contributor to the big offense of day was Mr. reliable tight end Greg Olsen who had eight catches for a career-high 134 yards and two touchdowns! He took the Saints defense to school specifically cornerback Brandon Browner running right past him for a 52 yard chunk play that sparked the offense! The Saints left him wide open on many plays all I can say is thank you much appreciated! I continued to say this he is one of the best tight ends in the league;he is the veteran presence this offense needs with all the young players and Sunday his play seemed to rub off on the other receivers and opening up other big plays for the offense great execution all around and once again thank you to the Chicago Bears for giving us Greg Olsen!

Bissinger also shows the injuries that come with pushing their bodies to the limit, by exhibiting both current and former players and demonstrating the effect the injuries have on both their bodies and psyche. The town holds the belief that the players must win at any cost, plays that will annihilate their bodies and grueling practices for long hours are typical for these teenagers. Those who complain of injury are seen as whiners by the coaches and all they say is ignored. There are times where the complaints are later revealed to be about devastating injuries. In Odessa being an athlete means throwing away their health to win a game of high school football.

Despite calls from conservatives to arm teachers, a voice of reason and dissent has emerged from this reddest of states. Alabama Sen. Bill Holtzclaw, a conservative Republican, says it is "doubtful" that teachers here should be armed. Holtzclaw, a retired Marine, has something many of us don't: experience about what it means to use a gun in combat situations. He was a primary marksmanship instructor who trained other Marines.

It is difficult to say he is the same person since he has been altered by the implant; Mark Carver is not really himself because of the implant. However, this discussion is dependent on a person perspective of the situation.

I believe that it matters if we change our minds about something naturally to artificially, because when changing it to artificial you are interrupting the natural process that makes everything the way it is.

As a result of this prohibition, many Americans turned to various, other illegal machinations for the purposes of attaining the thing they want, including making unregulated alcoholic beverages and creating illegal criminal organizations, which in essence, created a sort of rift between the American people and its government. By 1933, the public views on banning the substance has shifted to the point where the federal government had no alternative, but to repeal the unfavorable ban of alcohol. Fast-forward to the early 20th century and to today’s situation, when the American public is currently facing a similar prohibition, but this time they face the

McCullers harbors complicated feelings toward her homeland—the South and its people. “This Old South was a society beset by the specters of defeat, of shame, of guilt—a society driven by the need to bolster its morale, to nerve its arm against waxing odds, to justify itself in its own eyes and in those of the world” (Cash, 61). At first McCullers, like her character Frankie Addams, conceives south as something that has gone astray; she has to flee from liveless and bored south to New York City and become a novelist there. However, she finally detects that she could only get inspiration and courage of being a fictionist from her own region. The purity and harmony in the past contrasts with the dullness and depravity at present and with conservative
