“The fashion wears out more apparel than the man.” is a quote spoken by Conrade in Act III scene III on lines 119-121. At this moment in the play Borachio and Conrade are just finishing a conversation about fashion which occurs just prior to Borachio telling Conrade about the favor he did for Don John. This quote is still applicable to society today because of the current fashion industry. For example, Kim Kardashian led the trend of wearing a full metal belt at the waistline. However, this statement piece lasted for only a couple weeks due to the how the belt cut into the hips when sitting.

    My advice to makayla is to never get stuck on one question no longer than five minutes. It's okay to skip a question and come back to it later once you have answer all of the other questions. It's also okay to guess intelligently on some of the questions. I feel that you shouldn't always linger on the same questions, because that can cause you to loose most of you time on the test. John When writing I think John should just write everything out first step-by-step.…

When an onychectomy, otherwise known as a declaw, is performed it is equal to cutting off your finger at the first knuckle. The bone of the third phalanx is removed, it is not just cutting the nail off. Cat's nails retract, by cutting into these muscles and tendons you risk serious long-term physical and emotional impacts. 61 of 163 cats experienced chronic pain for 1-42 days after the surgery ("American Veterinary Medical Association", 2016).…

    Dear Editor, During this constitutional convention, I’ve noticed things that were said on the federalist and the anti-federalist side. I have taken the side of the federalist and agreed completely on what they all have said. We have covered all subjects such as: Separation of powers/checks and balances,the elastic clause, Congressional powers of taxation and war, and A bill of rights. When discussing the separation of powers, we all agreed that having a checks and balances system would suit us best; therefore, there won’t be any one person in charge there would be three branches of government.…

    Despite the new outburst of year-round schooling across the nation, I have the firm belief that we should retain the traditional system. Most schools who have switched to the year round calendar switched back to the traditional one because the anticipated instructional advantages haven’t materialized. In some cases, it even results in a drop of one to two percentile points in national rank for reading, math, and language scores, compared to a traditional calendar. It is not a good idea to keep making this change.…

    Even in the rain, or thunder, you can’t stop practicing, you just have to push through the storm. Perfecting your skills on the track, field, court, ring, mat, etc. does not come easy, and takes time. The weather plays a major role in whether you will practice or not. When athletes hear that dreaded announcement, “all sports practice will be cancelled today due to weather,” they now have to change all of their plans. I believe, adding an indoor practice facility to the school will benefit the school because, during stormy days practice does not have to be cancelled, give the school more to offer, give coaches more time with their athletes to perfect their skills.…
