The main reason the grant was not spent appropriately is because Mary did not plan for the future of Magnolia when they received the one year grant. Hiring more counselors is an obvious need to help meet the increase of people suffering from PTSD after the terrorist attack. However, the remainder of the grant should not have went toward increasing Magnolia’s administrative services. When hiring the new counselors Mary should have only hired minimal permanent staff, and hired the rest as temporary employees. The need for more help in administrating the new patients is also an obvious need; however all of the new employees should also be
How a Bill Becomes a Law There are hundreds of laws that are passed each year and yet many Americans do not know the process of which a bill becomes a Law. I in fact was one of those Americans that had not the slightest clue as to how a law was made. The last time I learned about how a bill was made into a law I was in about the third grade and my teacher showed my class the schoolhouse rock video, which at the time was just another catchy song to me. Now that I am a bit older I now see that the process of which a bill goes through to become a law is a much more complex and difficult process. A bill is first introduced in either the House of Representatives or the Senate.
Should parents be punished for their children's bullying crimes? One New York student thinks so. She's taking her aggressors and their parents to court, and she's not the only one who favors such action. Caitlin Rocco, a senior at Scholars Academy in Rockaway Beach, told New York's CBS2 that she has been "tormented" for years by classmates. And while she said she's "counting the days until graduation," she doesn't plan to leave high school without fighting back.
The legal implications of targeting specific groups are evident, especially with kids and elders as legal counsel, Sam Maddox stated. Nevertheless, Crescordia faces a few risks by not entering the resorbable devices market. This choice completely eliminates them from becoming the first company to successfully develop a reliable resorbable device. Scientists have been promising results in reliable products for 20 years but to no avail. This shows the unreliability of these products, despite the extensive research.
They will still live with their parents initially. They have found out that they will have to attend lectures and seminars for two days a week, but they will be able to spend the other five days running their business. They have researched their idea, and have found out that there are only two other local businesses operating as sole traders in their local area of about 80,000 people. They will not need premises, but will need a phone line, phone, answer machine, two Dyson cleaners, a supply of brooms, mops, dusters, window leathers, and cleaning fluids.
Then the airhead named Phyllis Lopez came when it was time for lunch and claimed the sweater from Rachel. So then Rachel gave Phyllis the sweater and ran away.

This law suit was a final attempt. The plan involved enlisting the support of fellow NAACP members and personal friends as plaintiffs in what would be a class action suit filed against the Board of Education of Topeka Public Schools. A group of thirteen parents agreed to participate on behalf of their children (twenty children). They came up with a plan, each plaintiff was to watch the paper for enrollment dates and take their child to the school for white children that was nearest to their home. Once they attempted enrollment and the application denied they were
ISP PART C: CONTEXTUAL CRITICISM When writing the book Nineteen Minutes, Jodi Picoult takes into consideration her children’s personal experiences of being bullied at school as well as the history of school shootings. On March 6, 2007 Nineteen Minutes was published; on that very day Peter went to school and took the lives of nine students and one teacher. The story takes place in Sterling, a small town in New Hampshire; it was a town where “everyone knew everyone else” (21). As a mother of three, Picoult has seen her own children struggle to fit in and be what society wants them to be. “It was listening to their experiences, and my own frustrations, that led me to consider the topic.” Picoult also incorporates events that have taken place in the past into Nineteen Minutes, including the way the police told the parents of the deceased how their children had died.
When I first chose this debate, I thought that I knew what side I was going to take in the debate. I originally thought that retention was beneficial for students who fell below school standards but after doing research, I have changed my opinion and have to say that grade retention may be a short term fix for struggling students but I do not think retention is beneficial for students in the long run. Grade retention was a common procedure until the 1970’s, when schools started trying other methods to help students, who were struggling, move on to the next grade with their peers. Teachers usually recommend retention for one of three reasons: learning difficulties due to developmental immaturity; severe disruptive behavior due to emotional immaturity; or failure to pass standardized proficiency or achievement tests at the end of specific years. Poor attendance is another reason that students can be “held back”.
He split the story into 5 mini chapters. “So she vanquished them, horse and foot, just as she had vanquished their fathers thirty years before about the smell.” (2) She had been told by Colonel Sartoris that she no longer had to pay taxes for the rest of her life, but when the new Aldermen called on her to collect the tax money 10 years after the Colonel died and didn’t know what she was talking about. The town had no record of what she was saying, so they didn’t believe her. So, after they finished explaining, she explained to them that she didn’t have to pay taxes, and vanquished them out of her house. Then it went 30 years further back, to explain why she vanquished their fathers.
