Unnatural Killers By John Grisham (Originally published in the Oxford American, www.oxfordamericanmag.com, April 1996) The town of Hernando, Mississippi, has five thousand people, more or less, and is the seat of government for DeSoto County. It is peaceful and quiet, with an old courthouse in the center of the square. Memphis is only fifteen minutes away, to the north, straight up Interstate 55.

The major premise of his argument is that “the display of swastikas or Confederate flags clearly falls within the protection of the free speech clause of the First Amendment.” Thus, though he regrets that the students involved behaved in this fashion, Bok claims that censorship is dangerous and goes against the value of communication and American principles of democracy. He concludes his argument by suggesting that instead of enforcing codes, and thus violating the right to free speech, it would be better either to ignore such communications or to speak with those who perform insensitive acts. Rhetorical analysis Derek Bok organizes his argument by first describing the problem, then presenting both sides of approaches to resolving it, and finally explaining his personal stand on the issue. The rhetorical structure of such approach allows Bok present the argument fairly by conceding to the proponents of speech code enforcement that display of Confederate flags or swastikas is indeed insensitive and offensive. This pattern of organization also allows Bok to distinguish between the

The host should be presentable and friendly, which makes me feel comfortable to be at this restaurant.

It is important to recognize the regulation impact statement that is not prepared in connection with the issuance of AASB 13 as the amendments made are minor in nature. What can make AASB is adoption of a wider scope of proposed issues. Some of these issues are write-downs of sound assets required under the current implementation of fair-value accounting which adversely affect market sentiment. The provision on AASB should accommodate well the write-downs margin that impacts in a downward spiral that may lead to large-scale fire-sales of assets, and destabilizing, pro-cyclical feedback effects. These damaging feedback effects worsen liquidity problems and contribute to the conversion of liquidity problems into solvency
You know the representative’s employer wouldn’t approve of such a “payoff,” but you have the discretion to authorize it. What would you do? I would not authorize this trip.

In the next couple years Cuba was granted a kind of semi-independence and the Philippines Island became another matter. The reasons why it was not a bright idea to annex the Philippines is because it was a waste of money and recourses, and the behavior that was going on. Annexing the Philippines was a bad decision.
