The Thought

sitting on the bench

with my fellow ballers

not a drip of sweat

just chillin 

talking about unrelated things

then coach says u guys in

as we approach center court 

we hear the crowd

they starts chanting

BALLERS! BALLERS! BALLERS!

time to tuck in the jersey

time to lase up the shoes 

its time to ball

when I am passed the ball i start to look

look for a fellow teammate to pass to

my enemy in front of me with a disadvantage

disadvantage athletically

i'm going to blow past you 

but i don't want to embarrass you

so I pass the ball

• Watched out for anything that had signs of the devil. So they really didn't think independently like creatively, or crazy stuff like Albert Einstein. Their biggest fear was the devil and things evolving him/it. Then that turned into a annexation and a complete fear that people for coming to the devil that some where hung, and imprison for this superstition.

1. When I was accused to be a witchcraft-er in the story it was shocking, depressing, and that it would be hard to get dropped. It was shocking because I didn't expect it to be me, because I am a good man of God. It was depressing because I new what was coming to me, because I've seen whats happen to other accused people, and know whats coming. I also knew that it would be hard to convince everyone that I wasn't guilty, and that the women that accused me was a liar, and what everyone "thought they saw" wasn't the case.
2. He was biased, he changed Abigail's age, and he took some characters out of the story. The most freedom he took was him being biased, because he read the historical witch trails and tried to make them play worthy, and had to make it entertaining. The one I consider the most minor was Abigial's age because it only has a little importance cause witchcraft effect almost all ages. Infants died in prison with their parents because they were accused for witchcraft-ery. 
3. There could be a chance because there was a chemical in LSD called ergot and it got into the grain, and it just look like different color grain so it wasn't really recognizable. Sometimes people were paid in grain or food for their services. So I believe that if someone got paid in the bad grain, and feed it to there family, then the whole family could get ill and hallucinate, and think they were seeing their neighbors doing witch stuff.
4. They were similar because the accused innocent people, and convinced them. But they didn't have a lot or any evidence to accuse or convinced them
5. They are the same because during both of the times communities and villages were undergoing a lot of stress and which made they people act out against people who didn't follow the normal ways of society. The two time are different because of the things people are being accused of and the punishment that were give for these crimes. Also at the end of both periods many accused people that were still alive were set free and pardon(sometimes). 
6. They similarities of the two is that they both were being accused. Between they're actions or beliefs they wre always being accused
7. For the people who don't take the time to learn the histor will not know the consequences of happened the first time. We keep stereotyping people over and over. We learn from past errors to keep from doing it in the future. It was successful because it really gave the reader a mental image if how life was back in the witch trials days. 
8. Early Egypt, if you wee caught with witchesy you were taking to the river to be drowned. 
9. We were surprised by how easily the towns people where convinced that people were witchcrafters. Also how people changed their minds about their neighbors so easily, even though the evidence pointed to the convicted being innocent, and also how they thought their neighbors doing witchy stuff, like the stories they told to convict someone.

1. Edwards believes that his congregation has lots of sinners. He gives theirs speech to scare them into changing their ways. 
2. He is talking about the common man. The common man is not rich or poor, but in between.
3. Abate in this example means to convince or please
4. Show what there is to come
5. he uses the clause to elaborate on the misery in the world
6. when the God lets you drop to your doom there is nothing left for you, there is no hope or anything left. The repetition elaborates and emphasize on it.
7. He is repeating "not willingly" because God does it all. God makes the sun shine, and the earth yield. Without God nothing would get done, and we should be fearful and willing to do anything without sinning.
8. He says the simile and compares Gods wrath to it and talks about it. The imagery he uses is to put the Fear of God into the people that are listening. The fear that god will bring death to them.
9. The things he is talking about and describing is towards the people who are continuing to sin,  And will show the outcome of whether they drop or they hang.
10. Edward is the ethos, he is very religious and strict.  He is preaching the logos and trying to scare them into doing the right thing.  The fear of the audience is pathos.  
11. His tone is steady, calm, and strict.  It does not change through the speech according to the information giving before the story.
12. He was wanting people to know that God can punish anyone at anytime and he wanted people to actually learn from what they read and if they didn't praise God then they were going to hell.
13. He tell them if they don't praise God they're going to hell and it works because it scares them into praising God.
14. While Edward gave the speech, his audience started feared God causing them to faint and cry.
15. God is in control of everything and its up to you if your going to hell or not
    

Themes and symbols in "The Yellow Wallpaper"

Themes and symbols in “The Yellow Wallpaper”

The main theme of the “The Yellow Wallpaper” that the author is trying to give is that the doctor’s wife was treated really poorly by her husband.  He locked her in a room in his mansion in the middle of the country.  She was not allowed to be social, write, or do anything really.  He locked her in the room since he didn’t even think she had an illness that all she needed was rest, which turn out for the worst considering she went crazy and she even chewed on her bed at one point.  Back in the 1800s, woman didn’t have many rights if any and doctors believed isolating someone while allowing them to do nothing heeled.  They were viewed the same as children.  In the story “The Yellow Wallpaper” there are many objects that symbolize different things.  Symbols in the story were used to show the woman’s thoughts and how she was being treated.  For example, the moving wallpaper symbols how the woman was having issues mentally from being captive for so long.  The woman said that the moon light shines on the wallpaper making look as if it was moving and she later in the story convinced that someone was in the wallpaper.  The person in the wallpaper symbolizes the woman and how she is trapped in a room away from the city in which she loves.  The woman’s husband is a doctor and he thinks keeping her captive will heal her over time but he actually is causing her to go nuts.  The husband represents the walls because he is keeping his wife captive just like the person stuck in the wallpaper.  The wallpaper design included vines as if the wallpaper was forming a cage.  The vine design symbols a cage and the woman symbolizes an animal that is trapped in that cage.  She mentions creeping women outside but she won’t be out there because there is rope holding her back and the rope symbolizes her husband holding her back just as the walls.
