There are more than 13,500,000 skaters in the United States alone, and some start as early as 18 months. The city should respect skaters as they do pedestrians and bikers because it is beneficial for kids. One of the reasons is because it is good for the body. It provides…

Henry David Thoreau once said, “disobedience is the true foundation of liberty. The obedient must be slaves.” In Rob Reiner’s film “A Few Good Men,” two obedient marines were inaccurately convicted of conduct unbecoming of a United States Marine. In the middle of the night, Harold Dawson and Louden Downey, entered the barracks of William Santiago. Dawson and Downey issued a code red to Santiago, exacerbating a condition and causing him to die of Lactic Acidosis (A Few Good Men). Dawson and…

The View was magnificent, the green grasses, the fresh air, and the sunshine shining on the landscapes and the trees swaying with wind. It was as if the world was reborn, the ashes were nowhere to be seen, and no fires nor smoke in the air or in sight. We stepped of the door platform and closed the door behind us so they would not ever know that we went outside the main bunker. It has been ten years since we have been outside in the real world, we have no real windows in the bunker they are all…

Situation when I treated unjustly, and how I restored equity. One situation where I thought I was treated unfairly was when I worked at the airport lounge over the summer. It was my first job in the USA, thus I was excited, and tried to give my best effort on my work so that I could learn something. I was younger than all of my co-workers, and I always tried to follow their instructions and helped them whenever they ask for. However, I had some awesome co-workers, but over time I observed some…

As the footsteps got closer and closer William Quirke scanned the room. He took in the scared faces and tense bodies as he tried to think of something to say, something to say that would not only convert the men standing before him but give them hope. Give them hope that one day Ireland would be free and the people of this great country would remember their names for centuries. Finally, William took a deep breath and cleared his voice. One last time he looks at the scared faces surrounding him.…

Over 20 years, Shakespeare wrote plays that conflict the complete range of “human emotion and conflict”. Nobody has any birth records of William Shakespeare, the only record they have is when he was baptized at the “Holy Trinity Church”. They think he was born around April 23rd, 1564. Williams record has no evidence or anything on his education. They know…

Beowulf prepared differently for each battle, and each battle had a different outcome, except that Beowulf killed each of the three monsters that he had fought. Beowulf went to Heorot to fight Grendel, the monster that had been terrorizing the Danes, because he thought that he was the only one that could kill the monster and decided to prove that he could kill Grendel. Before the battle with…
