In this chapter, Anney sees Bone with Tootsie Rolls for her and Reese, and she confronts Bone about where they came from. Bone lies at first and then she finally admits she stole them from the Woolworth's counter. Anney tells Bone a story about how when she and Raylene were girls, they picked strawberries for a man and hid the unripe ones under ripe ones. Granny found out and made Anney and Raylene eat all of the unripe ones until they were sick. Afterwards, Anney and Bone go to the Woolworth's candy counter. Anney waits for the manager as Bone cries. The manager says that it's lucky that her mama found out when she did, and that he's not going to let her come back to Woolworth's until her mom comes in and tells them that she has learned her
lesson. Bone immediately knows that Anney is never going to come near that place again from the intensity of her anger. Glen makes Anney and the girls visit his family every other month, even though it's clear that Glen's family thinks that they are lower than them. Whenever Glen is around his father, he loses confidence, gets nervous, and stutters. Bone tries to reconcile the two images she has of Glen in her mind: the one of Glen screaming at her, and the one of him with his head hanging in shame in front of his father. Bone hears Daryl and James looking at her mother's Pontiac and calling it "ni**er trash," saying that Anney and the kids go with the car. Furious, Bone walks over to the rose bushes. She starts pulling buds off and picking them apart.

In Fae Myenne Ng’s Bone, we are told the story of Chinese-American family that immigrated to the United States. The story deals with the loss of family, grief and the American Dream while also addressing the narrator’s ethnic background. But the one detail that really sticks out in the book is that it goes backwards in time, starting from when Leila is numb to the death of her sister to the moments after and before it happens. While this choice did stray from the normal conventions of stories, it was necessary in order to captivate the reader’s attention.

So far, various techniques have been used for reconstruction and regeneration of maxillary and mandibular bone defects. Autogenous bone grafting, guided bone regeneration (GBR), distraction osteogenesis and nerve transpositioning are among these regenerative techniques (1-8). Decision making for the treatment could be influenced by the type, size and location of the bone defects (2, 3, 9, 10). GBR had high success rate in treating small alveolar defects such as dehiscence or fenestration. Regenerative bony walls around the defect with ingrowing blood vessels can begin osteogenesis (11) larger bone defects with insufficient regenerative walls and an low quality avascular bed need varied amount of autogeneous bone graft from extra oral or intra oral donor sites, however, the patient may suffer from complications in donor site as well as bone graft resorption.(10, 12-15)

“One of the most sincere forms of respect is actually listening to what another has to say.”(McGill). The short story The Monkey’s Paw by William Wymark Jacobs has many instances of characters not giving their full attention when somebody was attempting to speak to them. When the sergeant came to the home of the White’s and showed them the monkey’s paw, the White’s did not listen to the sergeants warning of the monkey’s paw of it bringing great consequences whenever they made a wish. Mrs. White did not listen to Mr. White when he tried to explain why they should not wish for their son to be alive. Mrs. White rushed down the stairs ignoring Mr. White’s warnings of opening the door to let their son into the home. Listening more to people other than someone’s self is an ideal that has been lost in society.
Sarty’s father, Abner Snopes is accused of burning down a barn and Sarty is called upon to testify against his father and to tell the events of what happened. He wants to tell the truth because it is the right thing to do, but he knows he might have lie to save his father from being reprimanded. To his relief, it is decided that Sarty will not have to testify and is dismissed from testifying. It is decided by the Justice of the Peace to order Abner and his family to leave town at once.
Candy shows towards his dog by putting him out of misery. At last Candy said softly and hopelessly “Awright-take im”. A parallel scene which escalates this dilemma when Lennie has accidently killed Curley’s wife and George is forced with a decision with letting Lennie face a violent death or a more peaceful one by his own hand. “The hand shook violently, but his face set and his hand steadied. He pulled the trigger”. The technique used is foreshadowing as the shooting of Candy’s dog foreshadows a later dilemma that George must face. Irony is also used when George has to kill Lennie as he sacrifices his own needs and is forced wellbeing to protect his friend.
Another piece of evidence for wanting a social life and attention is Curley’s wife saying, “...I met with one of the actors. He says I could go with show.” and shows have a lot of attention and more people to talk to after the show. The last decision she made was talking to Lennie the barn ALONE with no idea how disabled he is. This was a big turning point in the story for Curley’s wife and Lennie when she let Lennie touch her hair without stopping, which caused her to panic then Lennie starts to panic when she started screaming and after awhile died when Lennie broke her neck.Candy has some regret about some of the choices he made. When the people in the bunkhouse started complaining about the old smelly dog Candy had, Carlson suggested it to be put down. Candy thought his dog was just fine didn’t want him to be put down but Slim said he had to be put down. Candy didn’t have choice but listen even though he wanted to defend the poor old dog, so he told Carlson to shoot it. Carlson said it would be quick and Candy didn’t want to know or put down the dog himself at the time,but later he regrets not put it down

Due to the fact that Glen keeps losing his job, Anney and the children have to be moved around from house to house, month after month in order to be able to keep paying the rent. After Glen comes home from work in a bad mood this is when he takes it out on Bone. One day, Bone has had enough and she tells Anney that she refuses to live in the same house as Glen.

In his book The Element, Sir Ken Robinson argues that the current education system is flawed in how it does not help us to find our “element”. His four main points identify the flaws in: the main focus of schools, the order of subjects, the assessments, and the curriculums. First, he talks about the specific focus on the student’s ability to perform academically. He goes into detail about how schools mainly value the success of students through their academic skill and their other aspects are overlooked. Next, he describes the order of subjects and its inequalities. Robinson explains how only a handful of subjects are emphasized at the top of the order, while others are undervalued. Then, he brings up the assessments given by schools. He explains how standardized testing does not aid the discovery process of the element. Finally, he talks about the curriculums set by many schools. Robinson explains how the curriculums are not personalized for every student's’ interest and needs. Overall, he is very critical of the education system and makes it clear how the
The Skeletal System, also known as the Skeleton make up a framework that support the body and protect the organs. The Skeleton consists of the bones and joints of the body. In the human body there is 300 bones at birth, these then fuse together to make 206 bones in a fully grown adult. The Skeleton is made up of two divisions: The axial and appendicular Skeleton.
