As the three brothers were walking into the bus station they saw that it was full of people waiting to catch a ride. Eighteen-year-old Andrew, being the oldest, had the inflatable rubber raft on his back, while Ivan and Oscar, the sixteen-year-old twins, each had a backpack. Ivan’s backpack held their food and some beverages, while Oscar was carrying accessory equipment. Those accessories include items like the first aid kit, flashlight, patching kit for the raft, sunblock, waterproof matches, and the list went on. Everything that they needed for a day of rafting on the McKenzie River in Oregon. “We need to find the bus that goes to up the McKenzie, to Blue River,” Andrew said. “I believe it is on the east end of the terminal,” Oscar said. …show more content…
He had produced some report that revealed a higher level of sodium, along with other chemicals, in the bodies of The Unseen. His claim was that the military secretly had been conducting experiments, injecting test subjects with test drugs. Historically the military had been involved in using humans for a variety of tests. The guest on the show had been unintentionally funny to listen to, as he had gone on. There was the part where he said that the assassination of JFK was somehow connected to The Unseen, and that this drug that now was being tested came from information gathered in Area 51, off of an alien. The guest was so bizarre that Oscar easily had dismissed everything he said, including that The Unseen even existed. Now he could see on for himself. However, that did not make what that guy had said completely correct. Oscar understood how flaws in logic frequently took place, and he would remain skeptical until enough information was had to prove anything. For now, he would hang on to what he had just saw. Then, an elderly man on the bench next to the brothers said, “OPEC is the cause of all …show more content…
He did not want to believe that The Unseen actually were real, but now he was looking at one. He had heard of cheap gas, and massive fuel consumption back before he was born. It almost sounded as if some conspiracy group had made up the story, in order to blame OPEC for the energy shortage the world was experiencing. Something in how the elderly couple was talking felt as if they were not as delusional as Oscar had been led to believe. Nevertheless, he did not base his beliefs on
(A) Make a list of the evidence that suggests that Oswald was preparing to kill President Kennedy.
An alleged mistress of LBJ implied the conspiracy to kill JFK began in the early 1960’s, this conspiracy included dozens of individuals including leaders of the FBI and the Mafia. It has been stated that Oswald acted alone and there is no evidence to support he was involved in a conspiracy assassination. There was much research done by the Secretary of State, Defense, Treasury, the Attorney General, the FBI, CIA and the Chief Secret Service. All of them independently came up with the same conclusion that Oswald acted alone. With so many theories, we will never know the truth behind the JFK assassination.
In 1976, the US Senate ordered a fresh inquiry into the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, who was murdered in 1963 during a motorcade in Dallas, Texas while campaigning for re-election. People who had been involved in the original Warren Commission investigations were asked to make fresh statements. The FBI and the CIA were persuaded to release more of their documents on Oswald. New lines of inquiry were opened and individuals who had not previously given evidence were persuaded to come forward. Most important of all, pieces of evidence such as photos and sound recordings were subjected to scientific analysis using the most up-to-date methods and equipment. The House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) completed their investigation in 1979 and they finally came to a discrete verdict that Lee Harvey Oswald fired three shots at Kennedy, one of which killed the president. A fourth shot was fired from the grassy knoll, which was contradictory to the statement printed by the Warren Commission 16 years earlier. They concluded that John Kennedy was assassinated as the result of a conspiracy.
“We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.” (“JFK’s”). This heartening quote was provided by a man who literally shot for the stars all the way up until the day he was shot down. While being the youngest and first Roman Catholic president, John F. Kennedy always influenced America to strive for the best. Until an unbearable silence struck the American people, he was removed from society in 1963. There were numerous believed causes regarding Kennedy’s death. There is the belief that Oswald shot him as a lone gun man. There are also other theories that state that there could have been more than one gun man. Some people even presuppose that the CIA is hiding the real story. Some effects of the assassination were catastrophic to the American people. We will never know if some of the Vietnam results would have commutated. Another effect was more of an emotional one. Many Americans were vulnerable, and they felt as if America would not be able to recover from this vast bereavement. Regardless, there are causes and effects when evaluating the John F. Kennedy assassination.
Oscar struggles to find out who he is, he is a dark skinned, overweight, nerdy guy. He is plagued with the trying to live up the reputation of being a Dominican man. The men in his family encourage Oscar to be dominant, sexual, and masculine. Oscar does not have those characteristic and leads others to assume he is not Dominican. Rafael Trujillo, as we learned in class, was one of the harshest dictators in the country. During his rule, he was responsible for around 50 thousand deaths (Class notes, Dominicans), The legacy of Rafael Trujillo, plagued Dominican men for years after his death. Latino
The boys brought wierd things and some of the things they did not know how to use them. In paragraph 32,33,34 the author says that they brought thing like cans of beans,matters,celery soda,Tootsie rolls,packet of hot dogs,pillow,and mustard.this means they need to know or ask what is good to bring for a camping trip by yourself. This proves that when you are young you are going to need to learn about camping. But you should learn about it with an adult. And ask they what to bring for a camping trip with a few friends.
On November 22, 1963, at 12:30 in the afternoon, President John F. Kennedy was shot at and killed while participating in a motorcade in Dallas, Texas. The most important question that arises from this incident is ‘Who killed President John F. Kennedy?’ This is an issue which has been debated by scholars, The Government, and even common people alike. Many people seem to feel that it was a conspiracy, some large cover-up within a cover-up.
The assassination of JFK affected the lives of many that were alive during his presidency and forever impacted history. His assassination is shrouded in mystery, and to this day no one knows exactly what happened. He was the youngest elected president, and the youngest president to die in office (The White House)
John. F. Kennedy was in Dallas, Texas in a car driving down the street near the Texas book depository and a grassy knoll, when three shots were fired that ended Kennedy’s life, hitting him directly in the bottom neck and then the next shot fired went straight to his head, the second shot was fatal. While Lee Harvey Oswald was calmly eating his lunch in the Texas book depository in which he worked, they found a Carcano Model 91/38 infantry rifle on the sixth floor and again Oswald who was calmly eating his lunch, was the only one in the building. He was on the second floor when the police took him into questioning but while they were in the police station a man named Jack Ruby shot and killed

Rivera recalls during the interview that when he was getting back home on a lonely stretch of a country road, he came across a thick blanket of fog. Then two strange being appeared before him and one of them approached him from the passenger’s side at which Rivera passed out and was taken to a strange place. Rivera claimed that “extraterrestrial human” who looked like human and had a long hair said he was from another planet. He adds that the “human” was verbally talking to him and was not using any telepathic method for communication. This “human” was talking to him about things that were even incredible to Rivera. Furthermore, the alien showed holographic projection of where it was from and said that meteor was falling soon in the earth and
It went something like what we thought was a snake was a shadow on the grass. This intrigued me, because I feel as if it killed my argument about the external world being real. Our mind makes up things if you let it. Like how if you stare long and hard enough at a wooden door, you can start to see shapes and faces or when you go to sleep and you see a shadow and get scared, but it was just a hanger with a shirt. Perception is a very tricky thing. You see a man pointing a gun you initially think he is the bad guy, but what you didn’t know is that thirty minutes ago the man who has a gun to his head attacked a woman. Your mind makes up things, but by our perception seeing things that are inconclusive it should not be the reason for us saying that there is not an external
