Journal Entry 12 Prompt--
Why is the USA/world filled with so much conflict? What do you think makes it so hard for
people to find common ground?
Answer:
It’s admittedly difficult to seek common ground when you have already decided that the other person is on another side, putting you in the literal position to face them and automatically making them opposite of you.

Write a Letter to Your Friend Describing How You Are Staying and Enjoying in Your Village Home
25 May, 2015
Dear Muhammad,
I am glad to hear that you are enjoying yourself in a tea garden of Sylhet. I am here in our village to which your letter was redirected. I was reluctant to come here, but having done so I feel very happy. Born and brought up in Dhaka as I was, I had never known this village where my father and grandfather had lived. It is such a change for me that I have already liked the place so much and taken decision to spend the rest of the time before the publication of our result here in this village.
The air is fresh here. Here are lots of fresh vegetables that we can eat. My grandmother takes a keen interest in cooking and making cakes. There is a well kept pond beside our house. My cousins’ take me for a dip everyday and I am trying to learn swimming. The local high school is not far from here and the school has a library. I am getting lots of books to read. Write soon as you can. Best luck.
Yours ever,
Mr.Bobby

Dear Greeny,
I'm have grown to see the wonders of living here. The people are nice and spread kindness throughout and makes everyone around here have a slightly good manner. Everyone often gathers around and we have small feasts that really help us grow together. When we are not gathering food for our survival we take place in many activities, one of which I enjoy, sword fighting. The feel of the weighted blade in your hand as you lunged swiftly at you're opponent, it's all in fun and the idea is not to hurt the other. We have other things we do, such as welding, and painting. We’ve also grown found of playing a game known as baseball, I'm not too much of a fan personally, but it seems to be enjoyable for everyone else.
Moving here was an adjustment, but my family has made many friends and we’ve grown to love it here. It is always sunny and we have a river in walking distance. We all live under one man, he’s the oldest our of all of us, he is 88 and knows almost everything. Sometimes I like sitting by our pink dogwood tree with my toes messing with the grass hearing one of his many stories. We go to him about almost everything, and he treats everyone like his child. He keeps us in check but most of all he is always ready to stand in defense for any of us, no matter how bad the person is. But we don't worry about ’bad’ people all too much, they mostly change after seeing our ways and talking to our ’old man’. But overall, I love living here, I love breathing here, and I wish you could come see us. Everyone is so nice and we have the best leader I could ever imagine. This isn't a village, this is a family.
Truly yours,
Shakedown

Jeremy was in his seat in the studio waiting for the interview to start when Shinichi, the sports news anchor, got that slightly distant look anchors get during an incoming message. Then suddenly Shinichi smiled, his professional good humor momentarily replaced by the real thing. He slapped Jeremy on the shoulder.
2
“Last minute opening. They want you to run. Amazing!”
3
His eyes lit on Jeremy’s kitbag.
4
“You do have everything you need, don’t you?”
5
Jeremy nodded. The bag was really just a prop, but he kept it packed as if he were going to run every day. When he failed at the quota lottery, he had thought that his one time in the Olympic stadium, marching in the opening ceremony, had been his last. Nevertheless, he kept training, packing in sweat-soaked hours between the endless interviews, blogs, picoblogs, interactives, and all the other appearances and promotions he did to boost the team’s profile. If Jeremy couldn’t run, he could still serve the team. The team media people loved his dedication to workouts; they said he was so authentic.
6
But he wasn’t doing it for them.
7
He hurried to the pre-competition area, security guards looking at him in amazement as they scanned his pass.
8
The charging room smelled of machine oil with a tang of hot metal. But there was something else.
9
Jeremy sniffed the air carefully: liniment1. Here there was another human athlete preparing to compete against a field of machines. Jeremy followed his nose through the room full of tables, each bearing a robot athlete lying down, surrounded by a busy group of technicians. Some tables had a cluster of tubes and wires emerging from the floor with a red rectangle painted around it and the word “Danger” stenciled on the smooth concrete. As Jeremy detoured around one, he came upon a robothlete that smelled of burnt insulation. The technicians sat near the table chatting. This must be the reason he had been summoned from the studio.
10
Jeremy pushed through a curtain that created a makeshift changing area in one corner of a huge work area. The corner was free of tools, computer terminals, and machinery. In fact, the whole corner was empty except for a woman with blond hair in tight braids, dressed in running gear.
11
“Hi, I’m Amy,” the woman said with a smile. She looked at the sports bag slung over Jeremy’s shoulder. “Are you running with me today?”
12
Jeremy nodded. There were no men’s or women’s events anymore. The performance difference between robots and humans was so great that male/female differences no longer mattered.
13
Amy gestured beyond the curtain toward the charging room. “I’ll go check out the opposition while you change.”
14
There was a requirement that each Olympic event have a minimum of one human starter—they called it “the quota.” In truth the quota was also the maximum. People came to the Olympics to see the best, and robothletes were the best. This would be the first event of the 2052 Games with two humans competing. It would probably be the last.
15
Jeremy was out on the starting blocks, looking down the field at the hurdles when it finally began to sink in. He was really about to compete in the Olympics. He was going to get his chance. And the crowd was cheering—chanting “JEREMY, AMY…JEREMY, AMY.” Jeremy could feel the rhythm of the chant in the air pulsing against his skin. The crowd wanted to watch the best, but they also loved to cheer for the underdog, and there was no doubt about which athletes were the underdogs.
16
The robothlete’s “muscles”—brushless motors, actuators run by rare Earth magnets, pistons driven by high-pressure nitrogen—didn’t accumulate fatigue acids as they ran. Robothletes didn’t take years to learn the rhythms of racing or how to judge the pacing between hurdles; they just downloaded the programs from their most successful predecessors and measured distances with laser and ultrasonic rangefinders. Decades had passed since a human had beaten a robothlete.
17
“On your marks, ready…”
18
The starting pistol cracked. Jeremy sprang off the blocks faster than he ever had before. He catapulted ahead of Amy. Even so, the robothletes raced ahead of him.
19
Jeremy came up on the first hurdle so fast that he was afraid he had overshot his mark, but he flowed over it as if it weren’t there. He could hear the whir of motors and the blasts of exhaust gas from the robothlete to one side of him. They reached the second hurdle and jumped together, but the robothlete took it just a millimeter too low, grazing the top of the hurdle. Perhaps its handlers had tweaked the software to shave milliseconds off its time, but the risk didn’t pay off. The robothlete landed badly and went down. It didn’t get up. Running robots were not programmed to get up; a fall guaranteed a loss, so there was no point in trying. Jeremy twisted in midair to avoid the fallen machine, landed still running, gauged his distance, and drove himself even harder for the next hurdle.

Suppose that the message of "The Minister's Black Veil" is that people are sinful. Suppose that the minister wishes to show that sin is a barrier between people and God, people and their loved ones, as well as people and their happiness. Do you think he communicates this message to his parishioners?
Answer:
Yes, I think the minister communicated this message to his parishioners.
Explanation:
'The Minister's Black Veil' is a short story written by Nathaniel Hawthorne. The story is about minister, Reverend Mr. Hooper, who preaches a sermon to his congregation about a veil that we put between people and God through our secret sins.
In the story, Reverend Mr Hooper does preaches to his parishioners that people are sinful and this sin begins to become a barrier between us, people and God. By preaching his sermon by putting a black veil on his face was to help his parishioners picturize how secret sins puts a veil or barrier between people and God.
So, yes, I think that minister was able to communicate his message to his parishioners.

what might be an “invisible crime” that was prevalent in the 1950s that may have inspired Miller’s play?
Answer:
The 'invisible crime' that was prevalent in the 1950s when Miller wrote The Crucible was 'communist hunt' also known as 'McCarthyism'.
Explanation:
In his essay titled 'Why I Wrote "The Crucible"', Miller hints about this 'invisible crime' that was prevalent in America in the 1950s. When Arthur Miller wrote the play "The Crucible" about the witch-hunt in American colony Salem, Massachusetts in 1692-93, at the present-moment America was dealing with McCarthyism.
McCarthyism, Communist-hunting, was similar to the incidents of witch-trials in 1692-93. After Soviet's first nuclear weapon test in 1949, the US government feared communist incursion.
Therefore, the correct answer is McCarthyism.
