One way Elizabeth Laird illustrates betrayal is by showing what people can be capable of, good and bad. For example, Maggie, a poor farm girl just trying to survive in the big, scary world almost seems to bring along destruction with her, wherever she goes.

And when Maggie and her grandma get accused of…

I've witness people walking down the street or walking across a intersection without looking up and they are seriously injuring themselves. I even had a incident when i was texting while walking and I hit my hand on a street sign because i didn't bother looking up. I feel like nothing is that important that your walking with your head down and your not paying…

Macbeth and Lady Macbeth’s reactions to the murder of Duncan are very different, Macbeth is regretful and Lady Macbeth is calm. Lady Macbeth's biggest concern is hiding all of the evidence. In Act 2 scene 2, immediately after Duncan’s murder the scene is very crazy and a lot of spooky things are happening to nature. Macbeth and Lady Macbeth are both nervous, Macbeth says he heard many sounds and two people saying a prayer, he says “Hark!--Who lies i’ th’ second chamber?” (Act 2 Sc. 2 line 26).…

That's not a valid religion.” “You don't dance or drink, you’re no fun.” “Marriage has problems, why are you so against divorce?” “You don't believe in organ transplants.” These are a few comments and myths a Jehovah witness gets. I got news for you, these are all myths. Jehovah Witness is in fact a religion, they love to dance and drink, they believe divorce should be a last resort, but it's understandable, and if offered an organ transplant they would gladly take it. Now here are some real…

involving many factors which can impact whether individuals make an accurate identification (Wells and Turtle 1987).” Memory is not the same as a video tape or image, it can not simply be shown to produce a precise account of an event.

white male was making racist comments on his social media about the black people that attended my school. I’ve watched and mostly heard about how badly black people have been treated unfairly all over the news and my social media accounts, but to witness that kind of behavior in front of my own eyes really made me feel completely different about the situation. It made me realize that African Americans really do go through numerous amounts of violence based on the color of their skin and…
