The Colt .45 M1911 is often considered the most successful handgun ever created. Although John Moses Browning designed the innovative gun for the U.S. military in 1911, it has been used and beloved by many to the present day.

Charles Dickens' Hard Times When we think of hard times in today’s world, our thoughts might consist of the number of days before we get paid, an argument with our spouse, or simply that our car is not operating so great these days.

In nineteenth century England, hard times to the factory workers may have consisted of watching one’s nine-year-old child tied to a machine in the mill for fourteen
New York State Safe Act Have you ever shot a firearm before? If you have… don't you hate it when you hear that click-click noise when the firearm is empty! Now with the New York state safe act of the seven round clips law you will hear the noise a lot sooner than before. The seven round clips should be unconstitutional that New York State is putting into law. I don't think we should be regulated on the number of rounds we can put in a clip. Ever since 1994, magazines retailed in New York can hold
The streets rest, empty, devoid of all life. The dead trees of winter lay in a straight line across the side of the road. The white and yellow lines along the roads are almost completely faded. The city is a wreck. The dark red brick buildings sit, abandoned and half broken. Almost all of the windows are shattered and the insides are completely scavenged. Along the sides of most the houses are local gang symbols, showing whose territories were which. These gang symbols are almost all different and

Without warning, a different voice came out of the mouth of Ostara. It spoke while Ostara’s mouth was left opened “The medium is happy now, having been transported to a more pleasing realm.” It was the demonic entity who, having been given Ostara’s consent, possessed the ability to switch places with the Union spirit medium at well. “Do you puny humans ever stop showing regret toward your past actions for once? It’s people like you who we despise.” “I’ll make the commitment, whenever you start
Georgia has many gun laws, which help protect the state and the people in the state. The laws range from having a permit to carry a hand gun, where you cannot carry a handgun, what kind of guns you can carry without having a firearm permit, what age someone can buy a gun.

Gun violence is a combination of different circumstances: from kids finding his or her father’s gun to spree killing to mass murder to domestic violence to gang violence. Solutions cannot

Empirical studies on context-dependent memory date back to Carr Harvey (as cited in Smith & Vela, 2001). Memory is context-dependent, when contextual cues affect remembering (Morris & Gruneberg, 1994). Context-dependent memory implies that contextual information is stored along with the target information. Findings from the research (Godden & Baddeley, 1975; Smith, Glenberg, & Bjork, 1978) indicate that context change alters memorization and recall processes. According to Tulving (1973) the usage
