to very high office because they were open-handed
and were considered to be so. I would reply that

As a contemporary musical, West Side Story differs
from Romeo and Juliet in form and detail, but
stays true to the tragedy of innocent love caught
in a complex social web that predestines its
demise. In West Side Story, love at first sight
between Tony and Maria set off a tragic chain of
events which bring the story to its heartbreaking
conclusion. Maria is Puerto Rican, Tony,
Polish-American; they are young, innocent,
rebellious-indifferent to the societal boundaries
which they are trespassing....

... Russia have a natural admiration for men, as

character. They do not have the deep rooted hatred
for men that American women have who were brought
up with by their mothers, peers, and feminist
media. Any sane man would obviously prefer to be
around the former than the latter, since obviously
the former brings out the best in men while the
latter brings out the worst in them. Nowadays in

... there was no hard evidence that the rape had
even occurred, in the first place. Isn't it an
example of double standards being applied? Or
maybe we are only allowed to talk about the double
standards, in regards of racial minorities? One of
the reasons, for the sentences to be so
ridiculously short, was the fact that authorities
feared to instigate racial riots, on the part of
Black community. Thus, the justice was being
sacrificed, for the sake of maintaining social
order. (4) In my opinion,...

ways to get white man s liquor, he can speak to
thousands and hear them clap their hands. Some of
