Alexei’s forgiveness at Anna’s bedside, while she was dying, helped her feel fulfillment after such a destroyed relationship (Tolstoy 636-690). After Alexei forgave Anna he thought, "But I saw her and forgave her. And the happiness of forgiveness has revealed to me my duty. I forgive completely. I would offer the other cheek, I would give my cloak if my coat be taken. I pray to God only not to take from me the bliss

Zach Petersel, in his essay, “Here's Why Suspensions Won't Deter PED users Like Maria Sharapova,” claims that the risk and rewards of using performing enhancing drugs (PEDs) is unbalanced and needs to change. He adopts a slight angry tone in order to appeal that big-name athletes caught using PEDs don’t face major consequences.

They focus on the struggles of the band and their often very normal lives. “Mad Tiger” is a film about a Japanese punk band called Peelander-Z who live and play in NYC. It’s an intimate look of the relationship between two band members and if you read between the lines you can see where their troubles start. Peelander-Z reminds me a lot of the band Gwar. If you don’t

“It was the old New York way…the way of people who dreaded scandal more than disease, who placed decency about courage, and who considered that nothing was more ill-bred than ‘scenes,’ except the behavior of those who gave rise to them” (Wharton, Prologue).
