Official and unofficial accounts report that the mother, Patsy Ramsey, called 911 at 5:52 a.m. in a panicked state, she told 911 dispatchers that her daughter had been kidnapped. A review of the 911 transcripts leads me to believe that Patsy knew, rather than suspected, JBR was kidnapped when she stated “we have a kidnapping”.

I would consider the article “ Donald Trump for President” as the more effective because it uses examples to support its argument why the author is voting for Donald Trump. The author mentions that Clinton will follow the same path of president Obama, and will increase the U.S’s debt. However, Trump will bring corporations, create new jobs, and advocate for lower taxes, and will lead to the prosperity of the county. Also, this article mentions the first and second amendment that could appeal…

Residents in the Las Vegas valley have many children who attend one of Clark County School District (CCSD) public schools from K-12.

“Flipping the Classroom” method I saw drastic improvement in class participation. I would keep my lectures to about 20-30 minutes in length before stopping and conducting a mini review. The class could ask questions at this time and discuss the lecture topics collectively. After the lecture was complete I would have them review with each other in small groups while I walked around and monitored their progress. This allows for the students to help each other learn by sharing different methods…
