William McKinley once said, “That’s all a man can hope for during his lifetime, to set an example, and when he is dead, to be an inspiration for history.” Any person who has changed the course of history is a man worth remembering, and William McKinley is one of those people. William McKinley, before his assassination, was one honorable stepping stone, set in place, to make our great the country the place it is today. His assassination rocked every state across our big, wide country and it made people uncertain of the future, a future without their beloved President McKinley. At the time, this was the third assassination of a president in a span of thirty-six years, and the loss of William McKinley is one that will go down in history and

After spending the last 18 years of his life behind bars, Anthony Graves left prison as a free man. Graves was convicted of assisting Robert Earl Carter in the murder of Bobbie Davis and five others in Burleson County. There were no physical evidence that linked Graves to the murder and eyewitnesses confirmed his alibi at the time of the killing. But, Carter pointed out that Graves was the killer, and his testimony alone led to Graves being convicted of the slayings and was later sentenced to death. Graves’ life was spared when the case’s lead prosecutor, District Attorney Charles Sebesta, shed light to Carter’s previous confession admitting that he alone was the murderer.
Medical doctor Jeffrey R. MacDonald, labeled by the press in the 1980's as the "Green Beret Killer," has already spent 27 years in federal penitentiaries for murders he did not commit.

On April 14,1865, a man named John Wilkes Booth assassinated President Abraham Lincoln. While he was he was watching Our American Cousin at Ford's Theater in Washington, D.C.

“The JFK assassination was the seminal national event in the lives of the Baby Boomer generation.” (Donald Jeffries) The tragic incident that happened in 1963 will never be forgotten, but somehow good things came from it. John F. Kennedy was a strong man and did what he believed was right. He changed the nation before and after his death.
I think Lee Harvey Oswald was involved in a larger conspiracy. I Think this because there were multiple shooters and I don't think it was just him. Oswald might have been pushed to do it by the government or like the Russian government because J.F.K knew something and didn't want j.fk to tell. What I mean by pushed is he was forced like getting a bribe or getting threatened.
John Wilkes Booth took advantage of the fact that he was an actor and used that excuse to get into Ford Theater, located in Washington D.C., where he knew that President Lincoln would be with his wife and some companions, attending a comedy. As President Lincoln watched the theater performance, Booth came up from behind him and shot him in the head. President Lincoln could not be saved and was later pronounced dead. Many citizens greatly mourned his death since it was such a tragedy that ensued in a time of happiness for many; just as the Civil War had ended, his death marked the beginning of a new United States. Lincoln would not get to enjoy this new country that he had envisioned since the beginning of his presidency.
Most members of today's society will only recall John Wilkes Booth as 'the man that shot Lincoln', and therefore only remember him as being the man insane enough to plot and execute the assassination of a president. In their minds, he was a psychotic man who finally acted upon his sick fantasy. The general population would also agree that they have next to nothing in common with Booth, and that he was clearly "different" than everyone else. With such an intimidating reputation, many forget that he was just a man. He had a childhood, he went through school, he was a talented actor, and he was renowned and respected throughout the country.

1. Introduction: Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the important green house gases (GHGs) emitted in the atmosphere through various human and natural activities. The human activities include rapid industrialization and urbanization, deforestation, excessive use of fertilizers in agriculture, excessive use of fuels, papers and many other manmade resources whereas natural activities include volcano eruption, forest fires, earthquakes etc. Emission of GHGs in the atmosphere leads to global warming which is one of the primary reasons behind the atmospheric changes that affect the human life directly or indirectly. The consequences of global warming are extremely harsh seasons, untimely rains, extended summers and floods that results in human deaths, destruction of flora and fauna in addition to the huge economical losses.
