Instead of listening to the statistics (i.e., that, generally speaking, the Cleveland Indians do well against lefties), Art Howe has made a reckless, intuitive decision to put Magnante into the game; as a result, the A’s are losing. Had Howe opted for a more dispassionate, statistical approach to his job, the A’s might have won the game.

The word novel is borrowed from the Italian word novella (Henry 235). Defining exactly what a novel is can be hard work. The standard dictionary definition is "a fictional prose narrative of considerable length, typically having a plot that is unfolded by the actions, speech, and thoughts of the characters" ("Novel"). Novels in some way represent life. The representations, however, occur in a narrative about life and experience. Since the novel can represent life, such fiction can be serious. The seriousness begins when the novel deals with humankind in a way that shows its importance and significance within the fictional world of the novel. The world of a novel varies greatly from author to author because each writer creates a new fictional world for a new work. That world may be all the relationships of a whole nation or of a very small town. That world may be as confined as the captain's cabin on a ship or as open as a little island. That world may also be as withdrawn as the farthest recesses of the human mind. Novels are important as they entertain and instruct the readers through a variety of life experiences.

WHY DO YOU THINK IT TAKES COURAGE TO BE A FOLLOWER OF JESUS IN OUT CURRENT TIMES? WRITE ABOUT A PARAGRAPH ( 5-8 SENTENCES
Answer:
There isn’t a human being alive on this planet who isn’t acquainted with troubles. Times of difficulty arrive unexpectedly, often remain indefinitely, and the sorrowful memories they produce take deep root in the mind. It is no wonder, then, why Jesus’s promise in John 16:33 also takes deep root in the minds and hearts of so many Christians: “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
This comforting verse is found within a larger section in the Gospel of John. Chapters 13-17 make up what theologians refer to as the Farewell Discourse. These are Jesus’s final words of reassurance, comfort, and encouragement to his disciples in the upper room before his betrayal, arrest, and crucifixion.
In chapter 16, he speaks to them of his impending death and departure, as well as their desertion. In John 16:32, Jesus tells them, “A time is coming and in fact has come when you will be scattered, each to your own home. You will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with me.”

In 12-15 sentences, summarize the book "Thirteen Days to Midnight".
Answer:
Jacob Fielding is your average teenager. But one day he is given an amazing power that grants him absolute invincibility, but at a cost. The longer you have said ability, the more suicidal psychopathic you become. The only way to get rid of this curse is to simply say the words, "You are invincible" to the person of your choice.
Jacob soon starts to realize he has this power. Without realizing, he signs his friend Ophelia’s cast with the words “You are indestructible” Then things start to go awry. The children become obsessed with his power and only want to use it for themselves.
Ophelia soon becomes dark and sinister like the other children. Jacob and his other friend Milo spend the rest of the book attempting to save her. One common theme in this book is that “with power comes great responsibility” The dark and twistedness of this book illustrates this theme through all of its characters.

Helen Grey
By Christina Georgina Rossetti
Because one loves you, Helen Grey,
Is that a reason you should pout,
And like a March wind veer about,
And frown, and say your shrewish say?
Don't strain the cord until it snaps,
Don't split the sound heart with your wedge,
Don't cut your fingers with the edge
Of your keen wit; you may, perhaps.
Because you're handsome, Helen Grey,
Is that a reason to be proud?
Your eyes are bold, your laugh is loud,
Your steps go mincing on their way;
But so you miss that modest charm
Which is the surest charm of all:
Take heed, you yet may trip and fall,
And no man care to stretch his arm.
Stoop from your cold height, Helen Grey,
Come down, and take a lowlier place;
Come down, to fill it now with grace;
Come down you must perforce some day:
For years cannot be kept at bay,
And fading years will make you old;
Then in their turn will men seem cold,
When you yourself are nipped and grey.
Which line from "Helen Grey" implies the author thinks Helen's behavior is going to hurt Helen herself? (4 points)
Because one loves you, Helen Grey / Is that a reason you should pout
Don't cut your fingers with the edge / Of your keen wit;
Stoop from your cold height, Helen Grey / Come down, and take a lowlier place
Come down you must perforce some day / For years cannot be kept at bay

What connection does the author draw between physiological and psychological reactions
to a life-threatening incident?
Answer:
This fear can spread rapidly and is not limited to those experiencing the event directly—others that are affected include family members of victims and survivors, and people who are exposed through broadcast images. Psychological suffering is usually more prevalent than the physical injuries from a terrorism event. Understanding these psychological consequences is critical to the nation's efforts to develop intervention strategies at the pre-event, event, and post-event phases that will limit the adverse psychological effects of terrorism.

Across the room, your classmate opens his mouth wide, takes a deep breath in, and exhales. Before you know it, you find yourself yawning too.
