I Believe that Tom Benecke is a dynamic character. He is forced to act quickly and because of this‚ many things about him change. Tom is ambitious‚ self-centered‚ and impatient. These three traits change a lot throughout the story.Tom is very ambitious when it comes to his work. He is always looking to get a promotion at work by doing a project. Tom just focuses on the big picture‚ rather than the small picture. This trait changes at the end when he decides to go to the movies with his wife. When

As we go through history‚ one of the most current issues in people life is property and the obtaining of money. A clear example is the story of “The Devil and Tom Walker” based on the concept of greed and how it lead us directly to the sin.

check information that seems out of place. One could go into depth with the news that appears untruthful. Take for example Dan Fagin‚ author of "Toms River‚" after hearing about what was happening in Toms River from other journalists and reporters‚ he decided to proceed further and investigate the issues himself. He wanted to alert the people of Toms River about what was happening in the city; he wanted them to take action and stop whatever was going on. In order for this to happen‚ Fagin went

monster-vision and if not that then it was on a similar show. I actually prefer this 1990 remake directed by Tom Savini‚ over the original film. I really enjoy what Tom Savini did with this film as a director and can’t help but wonder why he hasn’t done more as director. The update to color is nice‚ but the film does lose something in the transition. That said what was lost is more than made up for.

When Becky and Tom were lost in the

Now that I am looking back on Tom Robinson’s court case‚ I have seen what my decision has done to my family and I have heard what my friends and neighbors have to say about the ordeal. If I could go back in time‚ I would still make the decision to defend Tom Robinson. This decision is backed by many reasons of logic and my morals. Many decisions people make are decided on what suits themselves‚ they do not think of other people and how it may affect them or show them what is right and what is

The Ghost of Tom Joad Video Response The beauty of the written word is that everyone can experience and interpret it in a different way with some help from writer and their purpose behind the piece. The beauty of songs is that people are free to express those individual interpretations in ways that allow them to use their voices and instruments.
