In David Sundstrand's essay he begins with telling the plot of the play. The main character, Abigail, her friends and a slave are caught in the woods dancing. Two of the girls freakout and passes out and doesn't wake up for some days. The townspeople begin to start rumors of it being witchcraft and in order to stop in rumors that can ruin his reputation Reverend Parris, Abigail's uncle, wants Abigail to confess to if they were doing more than dancing but Abigail keeps saying that they were only dancing. Tituba the slave was then blamed by Abigail for witchcraft and to save her life she lies and says she was doing the Devil's work and calls out people name who were with the Devil. The other girls who were with her begin to call out peoples names

How many times do we feel stressed and stretched by the insane demands of the

Have you ever wondered what our future will be like when we are old and grey, when we have grandchildren of our own? In Chip Ward’s letter to his grandchildren “We screwed up” (2012), he writes about how wasteful, greedy, and self-centered he and his generation is when they were younger. Ward’s generation did not stop to think once about how incompetent they were about using non-renewable resources such as coal, oil, gasoline, etc. They also forgot to keep in mind how being piggish with these materials would pollute the air we breathe and the water we drink today. Chip Wards generation was the most avaricious, wasteful and egotistical generations of all.

His artwork has a happy feeling towards it, which I think was also influenced by the places he went especially Shanghai. Roys artwork that I have seen, usually has a girl in it with tears under her eyes, or sometimes she’s smiling. I don’t know if his life affected his artwork. That is my interpretation, I don’t see where his life affected his art. I can see he definitely put his life into his artwork though, if that makes any sense. I think that I would recognize their artwork if displayed somewhere. But, Roy’s artwork is comic-like and might not be noticeable. But I still think I would be able to notice it somewhere because it unique compared to other comics you see. Most comics have like superheroes, or Garfield. But he originated comics, and his are original.

O’Brien’s story about getting drafted to serve in the Army at the tender age of twenty-one made me sympathize but that doesn’t mean I particularly like his decision at the end of the chapter. He said it himself, he took a mild stand against the Vietnam War and was going to Harvard soon; he was too smart for it because unlike every other student drafted he had an actual future. When the young student thought about crossing the border into Canada to avoid the draft he chickened out of it, even though he went there and spent weeks building up the courage to do it. To me it seemed like his fear of losing respectability and being ridiculed were greater than his fear for his own life. If I were somehow in this particular situation I wouldn’t have

Considering the fact that the author, John H. Morrow Jr, is an American citizen, his point of view and argumentation are one-sided. However, in such events there are two sides and it would be advisable to hear both of them, notably about the concept of responsibility. On one hand, some Historians (i.e. Christopher Clark) bring a lot of nuances to the question of fault; all participants bearing a share of responsibility for the deadly explosion of this mixture made of policy, internal oppositions, opaque decision-making, for example within diplomatic machinery. Germany entered the war as a result of unfortunate circumstances

Chuck Close is important to learn about because he has been through a lot and yet he is still an amazing artist. He shows young kids with disabilities and other problems that you can still do what you love and be happy no matter what life puts in front of you. And in art class we use the same methods as him. We use the grid method in class along with many kids across the country. Everybody should learn about Close and everything he brought to the art

David Wilkerson was a well known Prophet during the 20th century. At least until God gave he vision and word to deliver to the world that even he admits he didn't want to deliver and was afraid to do so. He begged God to please not make him do this. But he complied. He was faithful to God, but lost his reputation with many men.

In the article “Legalising cannabis: Mexico can bring medical marijuana entrepreneurs $2.45 billion a year” by Ritwik Roy, Roy discusses the constant conversation of medical marijuana becoming a business opportunity for Mexico. The problem that presents itself is Mexico’s reputation for having “ruthless and illegal drug cartels” in their country. They are known for having a history of drug violence and this can hinder their business endeavors. Mexico has a population of 120 million people the writer finds that this is more than enough to market the use of medical marijuana. The author states that “Pot private equity firms and medical marijuana growers, all look at Mexico as a big business opportunity”, this shows that there a people willing

Bill Roberts, the CEO of an urban charter high school, reveals a school leader that holds to one “lack.” School leader Roberts demonstrates having a quality of not only having experience in working with students of color but also thinking about and having the language for talking about race and race-conscious practices. Robert stated that the school he has led for several years “mirrors the city” and the student demographic is around 50% African American and about 65-75% students on free and/or reduce lunch. Roberts recognizes a discrepancy between the cultural background between his teachers and students. Roberts makes the following comment about the discrepancy,

In Richard Wright's story Dave Saunders, a young seventeen year old African American struggles to find the respect he needs to prove himself a man. Throughout the story he puts himself in situations that prove himself defiant of being a man he lies countless times and with a injury of a poor innocent animal. But this proves to show does buying a weapon really show the quality representations of a man? Dave's mindset of purchasing a weapon and leaving at the end of the story on a train to go “somewhere he can be a man” But do his actions really show the quality representations of a man? Dave goes through constant battles of trying to obtain respect and power. I view Dave Saunders still as, a boy because none of his actions of proves differ

I believe that in the questions posed by Gary Bryant can be concluded with the following answers. For question number one I believe that the means are not morally evil and are merely just distasteful. I think so because of the fact that it is an infant that is being captured, it really hits people in that spot that makes them think that it is wrong. As for question number two I believe that the end is a real good and not something that only appears so. I think like brought up in the text, it shows that there is a problem of people in situations like this and with getting help. I also believe that it is a good opportunity to inform on the places to get help especially to those students on campus to avoid a similar situation. As for the third

In this article, author, Nathan P. Richard, writes about how federalism, which was once thought of as only a conservative philosophy has been rebirthed, but this time it’s being taunted by liberals. Federalism has grown from just states’ rights to more of a political revolution; it has transformed from believing in the idea that the states have practically equal power to federal government to a new idea of pushing states’ rights whenever it is politically convenient for your cause. Richard writes about how the idea of Federalism is moving from away from doing what is right for the nation and moving towards doing what is best for your political cause at that moment. The article begins to describe how overtly liberal Representative Barney Frank
