I have my aunt in cousin that were effected by Hurricane Harvey. They live in Corpus. 2. If there was a major storm headed for my home, I would get lots of water, canned food, blankets, flashlights, and batteries ready. Then I would pick a safe and stable place to stay and put blankets around us and keep the water, flashlights, batteries, and canned food in a water safe bag. Finally, i would hang tight in there when the storm hits. 3. I think they should pay for extremely destroyed homes and food and water for those affected by the hurricane. This is because people cannot pay for a whole new home and they need food and water to survive. 4. Private Property should be payed for by their owner because that is no longer the states land.

A Suspect "Confession" Summary- John Mark Karr was arrested after confessing to the murder of the young beauty contestant, JonBenet Ramsey. Michael Tracey gained the trust of John Mark over the past four years The two emailed back and forth, till finally, John Mark confessed to the murder of JonBenet Ramsey. Karr was taken into police custody and his DNA was tested, but came back negative. However, he was not freed. Karr was faced with misdemeanor child pornography charges in California. Opinion- I believe that it is ethically acceptable to break a confidence with your source if you think it would solve a murder and/or protect children half a world away. If the source knows something about the case that is important, it is better to share it, especially if it could save a lot of children's lives. Even if the source told you in confidence, the right thing to do would be to be safe and possibly save lives. A Media-Savvy Killer Summary- BTK is a murderer of eight. He...

See Lyle Lovett and his band play at ACL because i love to go to concerts Long Response: 1. The people of Charlottesville decide to cover up war statues after the death of a women that was killed at a white nationalist protest. They believe that the statues represent a bad example on the way Americans are living today. 2. I think that the war statues should not be covered up because they are a reminder of an important time in America's history. If we get rid of the historic reminder, we might forget about what happened. Once we forget, the history and problems could come back and the outcome could be worse. 3. I think that UT taking down the confederate statues are a bad idea because, once again, they  represent an important part of America's history and it would be wrong to forget that. People have a right to know how...
