"We now know that Kira doesn't just target criminals. He'll kill anyone who opposes him. It's quite possible that we may all be killed by Kira. Think of your own lives, your families, and all the other's you'd be leaving behind. If anyone wants to leave the investigation, now is the time. You won't be demoted if you chose not to stay. You have my word. But if you are not absolutely sure, then we don't need you. You have to be willing to fight against him, even if that means the ultimate sacrifice. That is all," Chief Yagami said in the Task Force room the day after the agents were killed. He looked down at his desk. L and I watched the laptop screen as many of the detectives stood up and left. A few lagged, unsure of themselves, but they gave in eventually. My heart dropped. There were only six left in the room, including Chief Yagami. I quickly scanned through the files I had to match the faces to a name. There was Soichiro Yagami, Shuichi Aizawa, Kanzo Mogi, Hirokazu Ukita, Hideki Ide, and Touta Matsuda. I smiled a little when I saw Matsuda. I remembered him from one of the first Task Force meetings, but after that, I hadn't heard him speak much. I figured he was too nervous. I voiced my disappointment, "I was hoping for more." L said, "I'd rather have less people who are loyal than more who aren't." Of course, I agreed with him on that. Yagami opened his eyes and looked at the five men in the room. "Five men, huh? Well, six, including myself. Still, I'm grateful to see there are as many as five of you willing to risk your lives to face evil." L turned on the mic and said, "The fact you've chosen to stay means you have a strong sense of justice. I trust all of you." Aizawa said, "H-Hold on a second. L just said h... ... middle of paper ... ...t. I'd much rather die with you standing next to me than you dying alone, thousands of kilometers away from me," I said. He looked at me over his shoulder, seeming to really be listening. I was pleasantly surprised. I was sure he'd tune me out. "You need me, and I need you, L. That's just how we work. Now, accept that and stop trying to shut me out!" He sighed again, but it seemed defeated more than anything. I raised my eyebrows. "You're an idiot." My eyes widened in shock. I stuttered, "Wha-What?" "Anyone else would have given up on trying to convince me, especially on something like this, but not you. You don't know when to stop. You just keep pushing, and you know what to say to make me break. When I offer you a way out, take it next time, alright?" He started to walk away from me. "Be here ten minutes before midnight. Don't be late. You know I hate that."
Since its publication in 1925, The Great Gatsby has remained a spot-on representation of a time in American history in which the people believed anything was possible. Gatsby is the definition of this idea. The underlying cause of everything in this novel is his--and in essence everyone’s idea. This idea is the ubiquitous notion of the American Dream. And Fitzgerald does not only write about the American Dream, but about its corruption as well. This following quote truly epitomizes what the American Dream had become in the eyes of Fitzgerald:
While on duty Special Agent Ahrens had been shot and killed by two fellow agents that she was working with.The agents who had shot her by a friendly fire because they were in a paniced exhibited fault and atrocious judgment when the agents shot Spacial Agent Ahrens. The agents that shot her was Douglas Harada and Thomas Fernadez those two agents resigned after serval months after the incedent but the other agents that were in the seen were discipled.
In the poem, "Alone" by Maya Angelou and the story, "The Red Convertible" by Louise Erdrich, both the authors portray a similar view on love. Although Angelou's poem and Erdich's story primarily follow the concept on love, each in a different way, they shared he key distinction of acknowledging how love plays a gargantuan role in everyone's life. The poem shows a greater emphasis on the main concepts whereas the story does so, but not as great as the poem but it's decisive in both.
Both “The First Snowfall,” written by James Russell Lowell (a member of the Fireside Poets), and “The Snow-Storm,” written by Ralph Waldo Emerson display factors of Romanticism: the influence of nature concept through figurative language, the imagery concept through excessive details, and the infinite concept through mentioning of God and the Bible. These poems share similarities in how they achieve imagery, but, these poems differ in the types of figurative language used to obtain an influence of nature and with how they express the Infinite idea of Romanticism.
The renowned writer Mark Twain once said, "Surely the [one] who invented the first religion ought to be the first [one] damned". In the novel The Grapes of Wrath, by John Steinbeck, protagonist Jim Casy shares Twain's perspective on religion. Casy, a former reverend reunites with Tom Joad, an ex-convict. After losing touch with his religious beliefs, he finds faith in the "Human Spirit". Steinbeck's portrayal of Jim Casy as Jesus Christ serves to reveal his purpose of the novel, which is to persuade humans to become self-reliant. The author places emphasis on the moral obligations of society, which is to serve and assist each other, and also extends to the idea that humans are capable of becoming their own saviors. Individuals are not to depend in a divinity for a solution to the corruption and dishonesty in their society, and must use their abilities to find such answers within themselves.

...t…Maybe he even likes it. We are not each other’s, anymore. Instead, I am his.”
“Sir, I know what you have done, so you might as well tell me the truth so we can make this meeting short and sweet.”
“The merits of loyalty are often debated – anyone who has ever been hurt by someone they considered a true friend can attest to the fact that loyalty is a double edged sword.”
One should be loyal if he/she truly believes that it’s worth it. Other times, one should probably not be. Take Hitler for example. Should there had been more people who were loyal to him? Most would believe that no one should have been loyal to him, since he slaughtered the Jewish. Others, on the other hand, may have thought differently. In a Hitler situation, it was probably
When asked what made her want to stay there for so long, her response was that “my goal is to become an attorney and I wanted to see if this is what I want to do and since I had a good experience here I did not

Not exactly happy and considered a snitch, the man who got another chance at life seemed internally ungrateful. Agent Torres might have convicted a criminal in the undercover work, but he also created a monster with his former pal. As the marine’s murder appears to be connected to the bike gang, how exactly it fits is still a puzzle to Agent Gibbs’ team. Knowing the victim had serious debt and his mood changed, the team assumed the gang was reunited and stronger than before.
Several cast members were killed off the show from which added to the drama. The audience gains insight into the emotional and physical difficulties as an FBI agent.

The suspense part of the show is waiting until the end of the show to find out who is the suspect.
The Senegal location is very important in the West Africa, mainly because of its contribution in the Atlantic slave trade, as well as the anti-colonial traditional reason which is Islam. Yet, Islam became a powerful force “…in Senegal area three Muslim states- Futa Toro, Futa Bondu, and Futa Jalon- had been founded as a result of Islamic Revolution in the eighteen century.” . After the independence, Senegal faced many obstacles over the course of the next fifty years. Moreover, the 3rd president of Senegal, Wade in 2006 planned to build a monument. The Senegalese architect designed the monument, it’s called African renaissance monument, the Statue of Liberty of Africa outside of Dakar. This project created a controversy among population of followers of Islam. In Islam, statues are prohibited by law of Allah . This monument quickly became a debate because it was built by a North Korean company and was mocked by older Islamic leaders. Nevertheless to Mr. Wade, it is a monument of hope. Wades’ point of view was not right, it was not nationalistic, since it was not creating any together...
