    back on Mr.Stierwalt was standing in the doorway with a twisted smile then boom another blackout and all you could hear was the screams of the women.

How is the only word any of us can think of saying. Scarlet Jones speaks up and say what were all think how and who killed Mr.Stierwalt in four seconds and go unseen and unheard. We all go into the library and I put a blanket over Mr.Stierwalt’s dead body. Once I entered the library I saw Scarlet and Professor whispering, Conole was just sitting there and Mr.Cook , Ms.White, and Reverend Isabella were on the ground praying and bowing to the giant cross in Mr.Stierwalts library. Scarlet out of nowhere jumped up and said Mr.cook did it which totally shocked me.

    (E)- We acquire information that a series of concussions has caused an ecumenical blackout, that the son was born after the blackout, that the boy's mother committed suicide shortly after, and that the father, who is sick and has a gun with only two bullets, wants to peregrinate southwest alongside the road headed for the ocean. The novel begins in media res, so most of this exposition comes in chunks of flashbacks strewn randomly throughout the novel. (RA)- we learn that cannibals and bands…

    Blackout The character I dislike the most in my book Blackout is Alec. I dislike him for many reasons some being he messes with people’s mind and he can get away with anything. Another reason is that he is the leader of a terrorist group and tries to bring carnage to America. The final reason is that Alec is one of those leaders that doesn’t care for anyone else but himself. The first reason I dislike him is because he screws up people brains. He implants memories that they didn’t have before…

    Regardless of the nature of a riot, a riot is inexcusable. The citizens in the video did however claim to have a reason. They said it was political. Constant years of neglect along with barely having enough to survive. Regardless of the situation I feel that the people are optimistic and took advantage of a bad situation. In both situations, social deprivation, injustice or blackout, looting was not the means to the issue that was present. In looting they took advantage of the situation. Yes, it…

    The information blackout was about as hard as I expected. I chose the day carefully so that I would have fewer issues than if I had, say, been out and about all day. Mother’s day was Sunday night and my mom, sisters, and I had a nice relaxed night in listening to music, making dinner, and hanging out by the fire. The hardest part was not being able to look up song lyrics, which occasionally we wanted to know. I did not force my family to join me in my project. If they wanted to look up the…
