    A Steady Rain

    • 1032 Words

    It’s your typical cop movie, findable on the local channels. Two police officers claim to use their power for the good of the people, but find out how much easier it is to take matters into their own hands. Although we all can get this on our television for free, director Tazewell Thompson takes Keith Huff’s “A Steady Rain” and turns it into something worth paying for, or did he? The set is completely simple; as a matter of fact I must say it is very uncreative. There are two seats in the front and several are lined up in the back making two single rows. In the far back and sides of the stage, there are blinds with cracks in it as if people have been peeping through them. No art work, not even a coffee table, just chairs and blinds surrounded the stage. It took a while but it hit me, it is an interrogation room. Now, the only thing I predict coming is be a waste of hard earn money and angry people in the audience asking for a refund. But when the two actors came out and started to talk to the audience as if we were a part of the act, it startled me and caught my attention. I’m really in for the night of my life and if you were in my shoes, you’ll be to. This is definitely not your typical play; loyalty, friendship, and lives are at stake. Huff wants us to understand that it does not matter how long or how close you are with someone because in a split second they can betray you.…

    The judge has made a judicial error by allowing the Plaintiff's counsel to comment on the case about Minichiello's boss being a German with an "attitude of hatred" and made forced analogies to Nazi Germany and the Holocaust. The judge also allowed irrelevant testimony, which asserted that the Club discriminated against Latinos, Jews, and African-Americans, to the issue of discrimination based on sexual orientation. I agree that awarding $20,000,000 was grossly excessive and has no rational basis, and was an error by the judge as well.…

    Good evening Your Honor, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, and opposing counsel. Tonight you heard the testimony and evidence in Roughed Grouse High School's attempt to hide, justify, and deny their negligent actions. In order to prove Roughed Grouse High School's negligence resulting in the death of Jordan Simon, I, along with my co-counsel, had to prove our case, not beyond a reasonable doubt, but simply by a preponderance of evidence. In other words, if you were to put the evidence favoring the case of the plaintiff and evidence favorable to the defendant on a scale, we the plaintiff would have to make the scales tip ever so slightly in our favor. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, we have done just that. We have proved to you tonight by a preponderance of evidence, not that the defendant was solely responsible for the unfortunate and untimely death of Jordan Simon, but that those representing Roughed Grouse High School were more negligent above all others involved.…

    Effects of Rain

    • 2 Pages

    Rush hour can pose a difficult time in for traffic, but when rain is involved this can be a much worse situation. Visibility could be one of the problems that arise during this time. When the rain is too heavy, drivers have to be careful and hope their windshield wipers are working properly. The heavy rain limits a driver’s view of the road. It is much harder for people that do not have good eyesight also. At night, the roads are dark black and with the rain it makes it much harder to see. When driving, visibility will always be your number one concern. Speed becomes a factor in heavy rain. In rush hour most drivers tend to slow down. This creates longer travel time, but much safer than it would be with less traffic. If a motorist is driving too fast they risk the chance of hydroplaning and losing control of their car. Depending on how hard the rain is falling, should control what speed you go. In rush hour, you cannot really go too fast due to all the traffic, so therefore you might not have as high of a risk hydroplaning. You should always be cautious, when driving in the rain, no matter if its rush hour or not. With all the effects of rain during rush hour, you can assume it could be dangerous or turn out to be a major headache. Rush hour is already not as fun going through it, more or less with it raining. All you need to do is focus and set aside any distractions you might have. Concentrate on the road and pay close attention to your surroundings. Cautious driving will not only protect you, but will also protect the other drivers going through the same conditions as you are. So no matter how much it rains or does not rain, being an alert safe driver is the only action that keeps yourself and others safe in rainy rush hour…
