Freelance writer and professor Ed Cray presents a thorough recount of Chief Justice Earl Warren’s political and personal life in Chief Justice: A Biography of Earl Warren. Warren first enters the scene as a district attorney and later, the attorney general of California. The second chapter, then, focuses on Warren’s role as the 30th governor of California and the 1948 Republican vice presidential nominee. Finally, the final chapters emphasize his role as a Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, and chair of the Warren Commission. Warren’s involvement in the political scene warrants this comprehensive 700-page biography.
I do think that Neil Gorsuch is qualified to take the position as the new supreme court justice. He is known to have an outstanding resume; He graduated from Harvard Law School and he studied under a lawyer named John Finnis. Neil knows what it is like to be a conservative on a liberal college campus. Gorsuch co-founded The MorningSide Review and The Federalist while he was in Columbia University in New York. Gorsuch and his two other co-founders believed that the campus had primarily liberal political views.
Students in Carolyn Foster Segal 's college English courses have given their teacher many excuses for their late work, regardless of Prof. Segal 's amply stressed rule that no excuse can permit a tardy submission. They have persisted in this for years, and Segal noticed that some excuses seem to trend. Over time, Carolyn Foster Segal made note of these trending reasons and tested their viabilities. Perhaps the most recurring excuse was regarding an unwell relative. This most often followed the sequence of (1) having become sick, (2) staying in the hospital, and then (3) dying.
Zac Deeringer Mrs. Eick-George Government 21st October, 2015 “The Life of Antonin Scalia” Supreme court justices serve a large portion of their life working in the supreme court system and most of their opinions and rulings are based on their lifes experiences and how they were brought up, so in order to understand why they ruled something it is important to know who they are. And the supreme court justice that should be looked at is Antonin Scalia who has been on the supreme court since September 26th, 1986. Mr. Scalia was born in Trenton New Jersey on March 11th, 1936 being the only child to Salvadore Eugene and Catherine Panaro Scalia. His father was a Sicilian immigrant who came to america as a teenager, and his mother was a first generation italian-american. Mr. Scalia grew up in the Queens as an only child (which is uncommon among Italian-Catholics).
Antonin Gregory Scalia was born March 11, 1936 in Trenton, New Jersey. He was the only child in both his immediate and extended family which lead to high expectations of him by his family. He certainly lived up to those expectations; graduating first in his class at Xavier High School in Manhattan and valedictorian from Georgetown University in 1956. Then he went to Harvard Law School, meeting Maureen McCarthy in his last year. They got married in 1960 and had nine children together: Ann, Catherine, Christopher, Eugene, John, Matthew, Margaret, Mary, and Paul.
Miller uses these anecdotes as evidence to back up her claim that American students are in fact “lazy”. Although many believe American students are “lazy”, the majority of students do their best with their work even though many adults do not see it that way.
The recent passing of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia has left a controversially delicate 4-4 split within the Supreme Court betwixt the liberal and conservative minded remaining eight Justices. In the wake of this doubly devastating event, President Barack Obama has been forced into the predicament of deciding whether or not he should nominate a replacement for Scalia, a situation which has been worsened by the current status of an election year. Unsurprisingly, many Democrats have shown support for Obama’s choice to appoint a nominee himself, while many Republicans have voiced support for an alternative: allow Scalia’s vacancy to remain until the next president has been sworn into office and is able to make the nomination. Regardless of support or disdain for his decision, President Obama has chosen to nominate Merrick Garland as Justice Scalia’s replacement on the Supreme Court. The anticipated
In a five-day school week, I set aside two days as rest days, where I will only read and take notes on assigned school books. I plan for the upcoming three days that I will work on my educational goals, and enjoy my personal life. By setting aside personal time to enjoy life I have no excuses for distractions once I begin my school assignments. The three days that I have left are specifically planned and dedicated to my educational goals.
Granting a student the proper amount of time to write an essay could create an enormous difference in one’s score. With proper time, students would not feel rushed. They would have adequate time to read over and revise their work. In addition, we must consider the factor that some people test better than others. While someone could be a great student in the classroom, they could just test poorly.
I am a very commendable student, but I am not perfect so I do have a couple of weaknesses. Sometimes it is hard to do what is needed under short timeline constraints; for example, homework. I really do not like doing homework when multiple classes demand it at the same time, even if I do end up finishing the homework or projects. Procrastination is a real struggle, especially if someone is a student because procrastination is not an

Junior year was not the easiest year of high school especially since I had to learn new skills and techniques to turn in my work without it being a mess. I knew that junior year was a significant year, because of the numerous amounts of assignments, quizzes, and tests that were going to be given to the students. Knowing this, I had two choices: I had to abandon the world of procrastination or become the person that some students are in high school, careless and disobedient to what was given or said to them. Even though I knew junior year was not going to be an easy year, I entered thinking that I was fully prepared for anything that I would come face to face with. Soon enough, I realized that I was not equipped to what was about to hit me.
There are many problems that prevent college students from being successful. The first problem is the outside issues. There are many college students struggle to find sufficient money to pay for tuition and other costs. Many of them have full-time job; therefore, they don’t have much time to do their homework. Furthermore, in college doing homework is the most important things that college students need to do at home, because the time in class is very short.
There I am sitting on my couch with a laptop on my lap. I have a paper due tomorrow and I have no idea what to write about. I put my fingers to the keyboard keys and start to type out the first sentence. “Once upon a time,” I said out loud making sure it sounds right. “There was a boy...,” but I stop short of finishing the first sentence.
People often put off important tasks, whether it’s something easy or challenging, until the last minute. It’s not something to be proud of, but it’s not something that one can easily overcome. As most know, procrastination, according to the online Cambridge Dictionary, is the act of delaying something that must be done, often because it is unpleasant or boring. Although many dawdle due to psychological factors, more people, especially students, now find themselves being drawn to ongoing distractions from advancing technology and easy access to social media platforms that are affecting GPAs, sleep patterns, and general health. Technology was initially developed to help individuals to be more efficient with their tasks.
