After reading “Why We Crave Horror Movies” I feel that Stephen King is right. Every human has their own degree of insanity. I am terrified of the dark, but I will go sit in a dark theater to watch some of my biggest fears. For instance, I am scared of clowns. When the new “It” movie came out I had to see it. I knew what I was getting into, but the exhilarating feeling you get when you are sitting in the theater not knowing what is going to happen next is why I do it. The metaphor comparing a horror

Giselle, good thing I’m typing this because there’s no way I could hold myself together saying it to you. Where to even start? You’ve been like an older sister to me and I look up to you so much. When I first got my saber and rifle you taught me. You took the time out of your day to teach me. When I’m upset, you are my rock. You listen to me like no one else does and for that I am very grateful I honestly cannot thank you enough for absolutely. A smile goes on my face when I remember all the things

President Donald Trump is required to give this speech by the constitution around this time. He is required to address congress each year to inform them on how the nation is doing. He talks about if things such as major catastrophes happen and in such cases on it ends up killing everyone. He also talks about the positive things that have happened. All of Congress and the cabinet except one member attend this speech. For the speech they are in the capital building. The Vice President and the speaker

Two thousand sixteen was a year filled with events that will go down in history, but perhaps the most significant and monumental milestone that took place in 2016 was the presidential election. The United States encounters many problems every year, and they continue to accumulate. Generally, the next President’s job, along with Congress, will be to attempt to eliminate these issues as quickly and efficiently as possible; the only hindrance is organizing which concerns should be addressed first in

When President Nixon's name is mentioned, Americans immediately remember the Watergate Scandal. President Nixon was the 37th President of the United States and served two terms. He won his reelection in 1972 with a decisive victory and has, so far, been the only President to resign from Office. The effects of Nixon's involvement in the Watergate Scandal changed the way the public and government perceived the President for the rest of the 1970’s. During the 1972 Presidential Campaign, five men broke

Political scandals are fundamentally impending, regardless of government type. One example would be the Iran-Contra Affair during the Reagan Administration, where the U.S violated the embargo policies against Iran. Another example would be the “stimulus” heist during the Obama Administration, where he basically took trillions of dollars in the name of “stimulus” spending. These types of scandals, however, have been more prevalent these days due to the fact that more people are gaining more extremist

underboss, Hoffa, would “stay out of hot water”.11 This is where Giancana recognized how Judy Campbell Exner can be utilized as a nubile diplomatic handle. Young, handsome, and adulterous Senator/Presidential candidate, JFK, was in a tight running with Richard Nixon. For that reason, Giancana talks to long-time friend Frank Sinatra, and tells him to set up “a meeting” between JFK and Judy (above). Giancana knew that if the price was right; long-time friend and Dallas Mob Boss Carlos Marcello Would be perfectly

Jeffrey Serpa Dixon Criminal Justice III 23 October 2017 Richard Kuklinski- “Iceman” Every serial killer has their own twisted ways to doing their crimes. Richard Kuklinski is no different from other killers in this way. He started young, killing cats and other animals for the fun of it and to feel “empowered”. Different from other killers, he committed his first murder in middle school. Kuklinski beat a bully death and then disposed of it. A lot of their character traits relate back to their

I’ve decided to focus this opinion-based writing on the successful and renowned composer Richard Wagner. After researching the composer and learning about his fascinating history, I was captivated by the fact that he is remembered as a dominant, yet controversial artist because of his questionable views. Despite this fault, Richard Wagner was ahead of his time and he drastically influenced the boundaries of music. For example, one of Wagner’s most remembered and appreciated pieces is The Ring Cycle
