I’m a responsible person. When I drink I always make sure that I have a designated driver. Why should I be punished by the few who can’t handle that responsibility? How about my grandparents? They believe in having a glass of wine with their dinner. Its an old family custom whic ...
... my siblings. The way she can juggle time to be a part-time RN and a full-time mother just amazes me. Whenever she has an obstacle to overcome she considers the consequences and make sure she is fully accountable for the results, whether good or bad. Finally, her caring ways makes my mother who she is. She is always kind. For example, the time I really wrecked her Saturday night when I told her she was working when she really wasn't. She surprisingly forgave my error and just dropped the whole thing. The way she shows her gratitude when we do something that pleases her, shows she deeply cares about us. Whenever we need a shoulder to cry on, help on h ...

Antipersonnel mines cannot distinguish between the footfall of a soldier and that of a child.

... Kraus just get suspended for the rest of the year, or should he never be allowed to coach again? I think Coach Kraus should be fired without any hesitation.

... hanging points in 580 of their cells. Five people have died because of it. Correctional Services Commissioner, John van Gronigan has stated, after the fifth death in custody at Port Phillip, that he is "satisfied with the prison's management". The Government is claiming that because Muirhead Cells (strip cells) have no obvious hanging points, thus they have complied with recommendation 165. This is a distortion of the content, intent and nature of recommendation 165.
