Ned pulls his arm from Lysa Tully's tight grip. "I'm sure she's just getting ready." Ned says. "Then why isn't she answering me?" Lysa asks, panic written over her face, her blue eyes watery and Ned hopes she doesn’t start crying. "Look, I'll go and talk to the grounds keeper about keys. Alright?"

For those of you who haven’t heard of I, Tonya, it’s a biopic/fiction/drama about the disgraced figure skater Tonya Harding (Margot Robbie). The film follows Tonya’s life from early childhood to 1991 when she became the first American woman to complete a triple axel in a competition, through to the 1994 scandal where her ex-husband Jeff Gillooly (Sebastian Stan) conspired to injure Nancy Kerrigan, an Olympic hopeful and rival figure skater of Tonya’s.

particular type of punk rock and country music described as “Cowpunk” along with a wild stage show that earned them a widespread and notorious reputation. Uniquely for the time, the sirens were not under the control of a male authority figure like the Runaways were with their manager Kim Fowley.

Despite a major label recording, a Hollywood

In William Faulkner's 1930 short story "A Rose for Emily," the protagonist, Miss Emily Grierson is a desperately lonely woman. Miss Emily finds herself completely isolated from other people her entire life, yet somehow manages to continue on with her head held high. French philosopher and writer Voltaire said "We are rarely proud when we are alone," but Miss Emily's case is quite the opposite. The strength that Miss Emily gains from pride is what helps her through the loneliest of times. Miss

I was determined to find a job in education, with my background in Psychology, how hard could it be? I found work at a residential school for runaways and abused teenaged females. It was great!

I made
where demand for their services is high. Others work in so-called massage parlors, a newer version of the old-time brothel. The majority are “streetwalkers”, soliciting, or being solicited by, customers on city streets. Increasing numbers are young runaways to the city who turn to the streets for survival. Because the statues are enforced in such a way as to punish overtness and visibility rather than any specific act, almost all of the prostitutes arrested each year are streetwalkers. Customers, although

as wife, in spite of and because of her insecurities and personal hardships. Unlike the rose-colored images that enveloped the minds of many traditional (white) women during that period of the 1940s and 50s, Maud Martha set her sights on being a bride under the simplest conditions.
