Amounts Of Money Amount Of Money
500 wordsAre athletes getting paid too much? Maybe they are, but I don't really believe that athletes are over paid.

Family Values Teen Suicide
639 wordsMessage or Korn Korn Message or Outrage In discussing the judgement of todays rock bands, it seems as though they need to earn respect first, then do what they please. Earning respect first may sound fair but some bands are possibly doing the opposite on purpose to be more appealing to the younger generation. A band whose music, attitude, and lifestyle that falls into this rebellious nature would be KORN. The material that KORN produces is not as objectionable as it is made out to be. Issues suc...

An exception to that trend in this readers opinion would be the character of Mr. Bennet, who by his sharp wit and stark realism alone redeems Pride and Prejudice for any audience who under other cir...
