you are a fan of the Mulan film, you should be familiar with the heavier emphasis on the “ideal” appearance of women in the song Honor to us all. But we simply cannot escape the “ideal” physical attributes that we are taught to aim for in society. “I want her paler than the / moon with eyes that / shine like stars” While these lyrics do not specify a specific body shape or look that a woman should adhere to, it does suggest that there is a general outward appearance they should have to be accepted
The path leading to the house was lined with blood, the two dead bodies of Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman laid on the floor with multiple stab wounds; leaving one to question, who did it. The O.J. Simpson murder case is a very well-known case. A famous man was accused of murdering his ex-wife out of jealousy, but was released as not guilty at the end of the trial. Many people wonder if race was a factor in the court's decision. The O.J. Simpson murder case is an extremely controversial case because
Nicole’s. The prosecution deemed this a direction link to Simpson and the victims. However, the defense once again believed the socks were placed by the police. They stressed the point that the blood was soaked through the sock from one side to another. This could not have happened if Simpson was wearing the sock. However, these socks were also sent to the lab and tested for EDTA and once again, the results came back negative (Augenstein). The blood found on Simpson’s Bronco also played an important
A district attorney named Gil Garcetti wanted to file the charges in downtown Los Angeles, instead of Santa Monica, where the murder occurred. Many people did not like this idea because the jury was made mostly of Latinos, African Americans, and Asian Americans; which would in turn help O.J., an African American himself. A Santa Monica jury would have been more of a caucasian based jury that might not have
It was the summer of 1994, when we first heard about the OJ Simpson case, and the media quickly dubbed it “The Trial of the Century”. OJ, the football legend, OJ, the actor, and eventually, OJ, the convicted felon was acquitted in the killings of his former wife and friend. He was later found guilty in the civil trial. In the early hours of June 13, 1994 a neighbor finds the bodies of ex -wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman outside of Simpson’s apartment in the Brentwood estates in Los Angeles

Innocence Justice Thurgood Marshall liked to say: “If you execute an innocent person, what are you going to say? Oops?” How does “Oops” heal a mother’s broken heart when her child has been killed for a crime he/she never even committed? How does “oops” help raise a child who will grow up without a mother or father because of the law? How many times does the legal system have to say “Oops” before there will be justice served for those who have been wrongfully convicted and possibly died for their
Life is like a mountain range with its many ups and downs. Each person has their own trek amongst the mountains, and some of these treks are more difficult than others. When faced with these difficult treks amongst the mountains, many people do as Dale Carnegie once stated; “When life hands you lemons, make lemonade.” In the play The Crucible by Arthur Miller, the characters Abigail Williams and Elizabeth Proctor each find themselves facing their own mountain, and it is from these uphill tests that

The Climb I remember thinking oh, this will be easy it is probably not steep at all and will only take a few minutes. Well, I was wrong that’s for sure. Over the summer my family decided to hike the Disney Trail, we would go all the way up and all the way back down and we thought, well it is probably easy. There were about 10 sights before we got to the final top one, and about every sight we would stop like it was the top. It went on and on and on. We were about half way up and had stopped a bunch
I walked in, it was a bitter cold and wet day. My first day, February 15th, 2007. It was the scariest feeling you could feel walking into a brand new place knowing no one but your brother. Mr. Dunning walks up, and shakes my trembling hand and introduces himself. Me as a first grader didn 't know what to do so I just said “Hello”. We started walking to my class just down the hall from the main lobby. The clear steps on the tile floor inching forward to my new life in a new school. I arrive at the
Because it is so close, last summer my parents, sister, and I went hiking on a mountain in the Alps. The year before, my grandparents, sister, and I went on a walk on the Füssen-Tree-Top-Trail, which is a bridge along the treetops between Germany and Austria. Every year before that, since I was about five years old, my grandparents took my sister and me to go horseback riding. There is a horse farm about fifteen minutes away
I put forth goals this school year in PE using smart goals. Smart goals are specific goals that an individual 's set for themselves in order to challenge their athletic ability. Every four to six weeks a plan of action is produced for achieving the set goal. When setting a smart goal it is important to include a detailed description of the goal. The plan should include a description of the goal, how it will be measured, the attainability of the goal, its benefits, and the time period. I did
that is why i cannot stand taxi's! Thanks for watching and don't forget to like and subsribe!" I wink and turn the camera off, the usual routine. Honestly, being a youtuber is hard work, especially one trying (and mostly failing) to climb the social ladder. Hours of editing and tweeting and talking to a camera can definitely take a toll on a 20 year old, but what can i say, it's a passion. I slip into my favourite TRXYE sweater and step out of the door into the harsh Australian winter; i decide on
had to face punishments that made people angry and one of those people was Hitler. Oh, and Russia is communist now. Japan again. Ultranationalism in the small island country came from the great depression. Oops, forgot to mention that. It was . . . a great depression. People were poor now and that made them sad, I guess? Anyways, Japan rejected the ‘ways of the west’. So did the Middle East, by the way. So people were really mad about being poor and stuff so dictators took the opportunity to prey
a domestic of our personnel. I don’t think pregnant women are meant to be nomads. Instead of nesting and striking mobiles and embroidering “I Love You” artwork for our child’s nursery, we have been being traipsing to home showings searching out a residence whose tiny size, timber paneling or stinky carpet turned into neglect-capable. Since I couldn’t pour my nesting electricity into the nest we didn’t have, I directed my hyped-up hormones to
Why Basketball is the Best Sport (Rough Draft) Did you know the sport of Basketball was invented in 1891 and was played with a soccer ball and a peach basket? Due to the popularity of this game there were many developments to the game such as a different ball used for basketball, new hoops being constructed with backboards and many different accessories such as shoes, headbands, and jerseys. Over one hundred years later the game of basketball is one of the most popular sports to play and watch in
been discovered this morning, as investigators still search for William Sutch." The television talks as Joni pulls the towel off her head from her routine morning shower, a kiss apron her cheek as her husband Mathew rolls out of bed. "Good morning, did you hear they found another little girls body?" Joni asked. "How many have they found, four in the past six months? Crazy how they have not had any trace of him, it seems he is invisible." She states. It was a sunny Saturday morning, the birds were
food. In the following written task, I wrote a letter to Daniel S. Schwartz the CEO of Burger King. The ads are ads released in the 2000s, including the “Long And Beefy,” “Blow One and Swallow,” and “It’ll Blow Your Mind” advertisements. In each of these ads, there are sexual and inappropriate messages, especially for the audiences Burger King is presenting to. These ads reach children and families. These ads are some of the many ads that bother me because I know this company is not selling sex
When I finally regained enough strength to stand, Mason wrapped my arm around his neck and helped me stumble across the yard. Then he made a hasty retreat into the twilight. My mom was sitting in the front room knitting with her huge orange tabby cat curled up on her lap when I burst through the front door. She instantly overreacted, dropping her needles into a basket. The cat hissed and jumped
