In primary school, in the first year class I had a teacher who used to grab us by the arm and virtually swing us around if we did something wrong. Ouch!

In the third year class I had a teacher who was a sadist who enjoyed humiliating whoever got shxx marks in maths. He used to have a drawer full of balls and every morning used to throw them at us, he caught one girl in the eye making her cry, and he told her to not be such a baby.

Sports teacher in high school - hated your guts if you were'nt good at sports particularily football(soccer for you Americans) I still see him sometimes, but he doesn't recognise me after all the years. Stupid Fcukr even had different coloured flasks depending on what colour sweater he would be wearing.

I need to check my homework so can you just give me answers to these problems?

1. b/3 + 8 = -7

2 m - 3m + 3= 11

3. -3 (k-4) = -6

4. .5k - 3.4 = 0.1

5. .7x + 6 - .3 = 6.8

6. 2/3x - 5 = 17

7. 3/5y = 1/5 = 2

8. 4 (y-9)= 3 ( 2y - 8)

9 x + 7x + 15x = 29x + 18

10. 7x + 9 = 4x

For my Chinese class, I translated Edgar Allen Poe's A Tell-tale Heart into Chinese. I have ten minutes to present it and I want to do something more interesting than just introduce the author and read my translation. Can anybody think of something creative that I can do?

Divine Right of Kings
The Divine Right of Kings is a European political and religious doctrine of political absolutism. Such doctrines are largely, though not exclusively, associated with the medieval and ancien régime eras. It states that a monarch owes his rule to the will of God, not to the will of his subjects, parliament, the aristocracy or any other competing authority. This doctrine continued with the claim that any attempt to depose a monarch or to restrict his powers ran contrary to the will of God.

Its symbolism remains in the coronations of the British monarchs, in which they are anointed with Holy oils by the Archbishop of Canterbury, thereby ordaining them to monarchy. It is further evidenced by efforts to trace the genealogy of European monarchs to King David of the Old Testament, in the apparent belief that it legitimizes the rule of the present monarch. The king or queen of the United Kingdom is the last monarch still to undergo such a ceremony, which in other countries has been replaced by an inauguration or other declaration. It is the reason why the British Royal Family's motto is Dieu Et Mon Droit (God and my [birth] Right - i.e. I rule with God's blessing).

It may also include a belief in the right of the monarch to rule due to direct decendency from God, usually tracing genealogy back to a divine being, such as Jesus of Nazareth; hence being the person most likely to be able to correctly acertain the will of God.


The concept
The concept of Divine Right incorporates the broader concept of "royal God-given rights", which simply says that "the right to rule is anointed by God (or gods)" which is found in other cultures. This concept was also found in the Aryan (White Race) and Egyptian traditions. Thomas Aquinas accepted the overthrow of a king and even regicide when the laws of the king are untenably unjust, and towards the end of the Middle Ages many philosophers such as Nicholas of Cusa and Francisco Suarez propounded similar theories. In addition, the concept of Mandate of Heaven required that the emperor properly carry out the proper rituals, consult his ministers, and made it extremely difficult to undo any acts carried out by an ancestor.

Much of the Scriptural basis of the Divine Right of Kings comes from Romans 13:1-2, which state: "Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation." A surface interpretation of these verses appear that since a king is put in power by God, every order given by the king must be obeyed, so as to not disobey God.

I need to write a story book for my english class and it has to have a hero cycle. this is what i have so far:
Day after day, more and more color is lost in the magnificent land of Oz. In the past, this place was once miraculously beautiful. Now its color is only of evanescence. The talking trees were to bloom in the spring with delicate flowers of endless colors or pinks, yellowes, and whites. Animals of all kinds wandered the forest gracefully. Birds accompanied by talking trees sang enchanting songs which resonated throughout the entire forest. The yellow brick road would shine such a rich yellow hue that it would appear as an endless trail of gold weaving through picturesque everlasting evergreens. And the peoples of Oz were overwhelmed with joy and gayness. Yet now, all seemed to be forgotten
I want to make it so that everything turned black and white and gloomy or something rather and im not sure what made it gloomy and how its going to become colorful and gay and blah again help

I saw my first moving up ceremony when I was in 6th grade. I remember how each speech caused at least five people to cry. So when I left that humid, cramped auditorium, my main concern was MY future moving up speech. I wanted to write the most amazing, riveting speech anyone could ever create. I wanted to leave people crying for weeks to come. But then again, I was the attention seeking little oddball that dyed purple streaks in her hair and wanted a pet monkey.
I now realize that writing a speech that does my peers justice is harder than writing any thing in the world. How can I sum up three years spent with some of the funniest, smartest, weirdest, most interesting people I have ever met. How do I sum up all the awkward situations, all the fun, all the school dances that everybody not so secretly despises, all the late library books, all the essays, homework slips, and progress reports? In short how can summarize Little Red? How can I tell 39 other people how much they mean to me?
