I decided to interview my friend Jack Rezuto. He is your average five foot eight inch Italian American white guy. Jack is eighteen years old and participates in very average teenage activities.

specific area. There should be no reason that a predominantly white area should profile the same as a predominantly black area. By doing such, law enforcement will end up magnifying (and profiling) the wrong crimes for their respective area.

If Precinct Thirteen’s has more issues with middle-aged white drug dealers in a certain area, then they should implement security measures that draw extra…

I then turned to address Grandpa. “Anyways, having spent time with Mom and Dad in several hotels during the early part of my childhood, I remember the food wasn’t exactly cheap. Could the same get said for your Savoy dinner?” Grandpa replied that—provided he recalled the price—it cost over twenty dollars, which was a fortune back then.

“kill-all” order wouldn’t be used on them. Not only was his conscious mind of him attack, but also his subconscious. “At night, the Bird stalked his dreams, screeching, seething, his belt buck flying at Louie’s skull” (265). I consider it to be one of the few times where I can rest my mind, body and spirit. Louie doesn’t even have the luxury to have decent dreams, but instead he has to be tortured by “The Bird” almost…

blessed to still count him among my good friends. Nonetheless, I am deeply saddened by the loss of my dear friend, Ron Moreland. Ron, who was one of our gang from the old neighborhood, battled cancer for more than 20 years and was the epitome of strength and determination. With excruciating pain throughout his body, he suffered quietly to the very end. Ron, you were a great guy, who showed tremendous courage in face of a horrible disease. The scout who signed me to my first contract in…

Gilgamesh destroyed the bull. After this battle, Enkidu dreamed about death. The gods did not like the act that the two kings performed, so they gathered and decided that one of the two kings had to die as punishment. Gilgamesh tried to reinterpret the dream to calm Enkidu. A few days passed and Enkidu became sick. Gilgamesh stated, “Beloved, wait, don’t leave me. Dearest of men, don’t die, don’t let them take you from me” (Mitchell 150). Enkidu was doomed and soon faced death. Gilgamesh lost…

be and it is somewhat in result of the affair. It is also the introduction of her character, setting her up as a frigid and lonely wife. Another instance of their chilling relationship is when Elizabeth plain out states in by saying “I have sins of my own to count. It needs a cold wife to prompt lechery.”This shows that their numbing cracked relationship is clear enough for even Elizabeth to see. Moreover it shows how the affair not only was John’s fault but that she also feels guilty about it;…
