The book I read was written by Eric Walters and is called Juice. The book Juice was about a football Star named Michael Monroe (nicknamed Moose). Juice takes place in a small farm town in Georgia. The book starts off with Moose’s team winning the state championship. Which after they win later in the locker room Moose’s coach announces to his team that he has decided to retire from coaching. So it’s announced that a Division 1 coach, which is the level above Moose’s High school, is interested in coaching for this team if he receives money to redo the whole Football program. So this new coach buys all new equipment and a fully changed the state of the art training facility. To Moose and all the other Team all this sounds wonderful but they feel something is weird. This new coach even has a strength trainer that is going to work with them throughout the summer to help them get ready for the upcoming season, who also worked with professional football players. So as Moose continues to show up each day to lift weights and train this new trainer feels as if training the right way isn’t enough, and is starting to put some “extra” ingredients into the player’s shakes. So then comes the day when Moose shows up and this trainer pulls him aside to offer him some Anabolic Steroids. Now Moose is faced with the decision of taking them and being one of the best player to ever go to this High School. Or just working his hardest everyday to improve and being the best he can while being the true winner. Now I really liked this book I recommend this book for people who like football or for people who just like sports in general if I had to rate this book I would rate it a high 7.5…

Since the foundation of the United States of America it has always be portrayed as the land of endless opportunities in which its people can do freely what they desire. This is also known as the American Dream, which is set of ideals in which freedom includes the opportunity for prosperity and success, achieved through hard work. However, can prosperity and success be achieved by everyone or do certain ethnic groups have discriminatory barriers limiting their success? In the play A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry it becomes painfully clear that African Americans have to deal with racial prejudices complicating the completion of their desired dreams of a better prosperous future. Even though, the diverse…
Les Miserables (Les Mis for short) is a musical that was composed in 1980 by the French composer Claude-Michel Schonberg with the libretto, or text, by Alain Boublill and lyrics by Herbert. It is one of the most performed and well-known musicals in the world. On October 8, 2006 Les Miserables celebrated 21 years on London’s West End and became the longest running West End musical in history, reaching 9,500 performances. The show continues to be shown at London’s Queen’s Theatre. Based on the Victor Hugo’s 1862 novel, Les Miserables, it is set in the early 19th century France and with a cast of interlacing stories. We watch as they struggle for redemption and revolution while they are joined by an ensemble that includes prostitutes, student revolutionaries, factory workers, and others. The Tony Award-winning score features the songs I Dreamed a Dream, a solo sung by the character Fantine, and On My Own, a solo sung by the character Eponine, which have had many professional artists record covers of these songs.…
Food provokes lively, warm, jovial feelings for me; this is especially true during the holidays. Baked goods still sparks my olfactory sense and makes me reminisce of Christmas. When I recall these memories I am at my grandmother’s house as a young child. It starts when the oven door opens, vapors of brown sugar waft through the kitchen and the caramelized, buttery aroma with lingering scents of cinnamon. For me, these memories fill me with joy and always evoke a grin. This feeling are even stronger when I recall, in particular, baguettes. My interest in bread became irrepressible at the beginning of my cooking career, and developed into a obsessive urge to create perfection the more I focused on it.…
In easeful-death I roamed; a soul lost to Damnation, doomed to roast in Purgatory forever and ever. I knew that dead was what I was and that Purgatory was where I was, because my father would always yell, ‘Damn your soul to Purgatory’ when he was mad at someone, and he was mad at me. The fear of his wrath was what had always kept me in line, but not this time; this time, I was willfully disobedient.…

Marie de France’s twelve lais are thought to have been written between 1155 and 1170 in England (Rikhardsdottir 26). The writer of the prologue to the set of lais introduces herself as Marie. Because she only offers her name and her wish for herself and her works to not be forgotten, not much is known about Marie de France (Kinoshita and McCracken 202), but her writings and the authors who mention her in their works help provide more information about Marie de France (Kinoshita and McCracken 207). Based on her name and style of writing, many believe Marie to have been a woman (Rikhardsdottir 32). William S. Woods believes she is a female writer because of the details she gives about items and people that are not necessary for the narrative…
They call me placid Jermaine, but really I’m not. There’s nothing peaceful or calm in my mind I’m actually very opinionated. I’m constantly thinking and wondering about things. Growing up an African American teen in Lafayette, Virginia the odd of success were against me. My whole life I’ve been around small-minded bigots which are noxious mentally to be around. They’re telling me the only way I would ever make it in life is if I played sports or if I sold drugs just because of the color of my skin. I have no idea why people like that have to be so knotty. My mother would always give me the best advice with dealing with a person like that. She told me there’s numerous amount of small-minded people in the world just prove them wrong so you…
Amelie is partially told by an omniscient voice-over narrator and partially tells by itself. The voice-over narrator introduces a character or summarizes a length of time in the character's life that the film skips over. For example, the voice-over narrator introduces Amelie’s parents and other characters at the beginning of the film by relating some oddly humorous character traits. The voice-over narrator is also arranging the parts of the narrative. In other words, he is telling the story and letting Amelia’s voice come directly through - the film is told from Amelie's perspective.…

After school that day Ciara and I sat down and did our homework. We studied for our English test that we would be having to take in a couple of days and browse on Facebook. Ciara was the type to always start arguments with someone and half of the time don’t admit when she’s wrong. While on Facebook Ciara put up the meanest status about a girl name Jakayla Ross at our school that’s in our 3rd period class. When I saw her status I asked, “Ciara, why did you just say that Jakayla was dumb as a sack of rocks?” Ciara then looked at me and said “Brekaa, I don’t know why you are tripping you know Jakayla can’t read that’s why she always stutter when the teacher call her name to read then lie and say she have a sore throat.” After the back and forth conversation Ciara and I had about the status I asked her to leave, because I didn’t want to take part in what was just happening here. Ciara slam my front door and storm off down the road to her house.…
Mathilde Loisel was a middle-class girl who desperately wishes she were wealthy. She's got looks and charm, but had the bad luck to be born into a family of clerks, who marry her to another clerk in the Department of Education. One day M. Loisel got an invitation to a fancy ball thrown by his boss. M. Loisel has gone to a lot of trouble to get the invitation, but Mathilde's first reaction is to throw a fit. She doesn't have anything nice to wear, and can't possibly go! Mathilde asks for 400 francs, and his husband agrees. But because Mathilde doesn’t have any jewels, she borrows a diamond necklace from her friend Mme. Foreister, a rich woman who can probably lend her something. The night of the ball arrives, and Mathilde has the time of her life. Everyone loves her and she is absolutely thrilled. At 4am she and her husband return home, and discover the necklace is missing.

Forestier a new necklace. They visit one jewelry store after another until at last they find a necklace that looks just the same as the one they lost. Unfortunately, it's 36 thousand francs, which is exactly twice the amount of all the money M. Loisel has to his name. So M.
