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!

Dave Pelzer has endured so much in his past. The years of abuse that seemed like a never ending maze of torture, were like a routine of beatings to him. The wicked games that his mother played on him and the bizarre ways of practicing them, felt like an eternity for a 12 year old boy. Nevertheless, for every darkest storm there is a shining ray.

What if your best friend went on an adventure. They had everything they had ever wanted. They didn't tell you or their family where they were going or how long they would be gone. They just picked up and left. Would you respect their decision to not tell anyone their plans?

Father Jose Maria Morelos had many arguments that he put forward to argue for Mexican independence. These arguments covered a wide range of topics from economics to religion.

He was simply defying society and its ideal expectation it holds upon us as a whole.

Beautifully written! You stated, “Genovese justified the killing of the women and children,” I could never justify the killing of women and children, no matter the race, just as I could not justify the institution of slavery.
