They were all inseparable and now cady has to figure it out

Taya dad run a small business and her mom was a teacher by trade. And her older sister, Ashley. Marian, Taya father. Marian mother died because of illness. Marian been getting re married and been getting divorce a lot.

Cady has another instance towards the end of the book where she is in denial over the fact that she won’t be able to see Gat again. Cady narrates, “Then he takes off, and I cannot bear to be seperate from him, and I think, this cannot be the end”(Lockhart, 2014, 242). Denial can lead to anger in the situation at hand and in this case, Cady takes the next step in the grieving process which is

This is shown in Lord of the Flies when Ralph is overthrown and Jack becomes the leader. However, power was not handed to Jack, he had to work to show he could be a leader. The ways he gained power were by showing he was a good hunter, by showing Ralph's weaknesses, and by exploiting the boy's fears.

Cady became one of the ‘plastics’ which ended up transforming her into an antipathetic and a truly mean girl. While she was part of the clique, Janis and Cady were plotting

Later on people began to catch on and realize there was manipulation behind his kindness that benefited himself becoming well liked and respected. An example of the kindness the Roman people thought they saw in Julius was that he gave many generous gifts, favors, and privileges to people who proved to be loyal to him. However, Julius’s actions were merely for gaining supporters who saw his generosity as the characteristics of a loving and caring leader. Julius manipulated the Roman people into thinking he was a good leader when in reality he used his fake kindness to gain the love of the Romans. Another thing that made Julius appear to be such a good leader was that he showed compassion and forgiveness towards people.

They believe he was going to take over like a king and once done so his nature would change drastically like a power hungry ruler. That is what resulted in his killing. It was said he made the senate “Worthless” by taking charge and responsibility of helping Rome. However how can a person be committed of a crime like being a power hungry tyrant when he has done nothing of that nature? It was all what if statements the senate were just worried about their power taken away from them, “Brutus was a senator, but his decision to kill Caesar was motivated by no more than petty self-interest”

In the movie Cady is jealous of Regina's popularity and brings Gretchen to her side. Gretchen begins to see that Regina uses her power to control others. She also makes a speech about Julius Caesar in her class, pretending to be Brutus: “Why should Caesar get to stomp around like a giant while the rest of us try not to get smushed under his

During the film, Cady starts taking on Regina’s role the moment she starts to plan her own “plastic sabotage” without Damien and Janis, demonstrating that she actually wants to be around them on her spare time. This is also shown when she begins to speak the same as Regina by quoting things she says, and using the same tone of voice that she does (Mean Girls, 2004). This is the first step Cady takes before she becomes a clone of

If a bad leader had all the power and made poor decisions, it will hurt the empire and its inhabitants. Emperors such as Caligula, Nero, and Commodus hurt the Roman Empire’s image, resources, and people. (Gill, N.S). Many dictators had to rule by fear and violence to make sure they weren't overthrown and killed. Ruling by fear and violence resulted in many deaths and uncertainty

When Brutus was talking to the conspirators Brutus was going back and forth think if he should help the conspirators kill Julius Caesar. He was going back and forth because he was thinking of the power he could have and could rule Rome. The reason behind Brutus killing Caesar was for the better of Rome. If Brutus would not have killed Caesar, Rome would have turned into a dictatorship, and in turn it would have ruined Rome and all of its people. Brutus did not kill Julius just for the power to rule Rome, he killed Julius to save Rome from Caesar’s dictatorship.

And while Brutus did work in part with other conspirators, which eventually led to him killing Caesar, he did it for a more morally sound reason which was that Caesar was going to cause the downfall of Rome because he was too ambitious, which is ironic because Caesar's death led to a string of unfit leaders, and civil unrest that eventually led to the downfall of the roman empire. Brutus was also focused on preventing corruption. “The name of Cassius honors this corruption,/ And chastisement doth therefore hide his head (IV.iii.15-6)... Remember March, the ides of March remember./ Did not great Julius bleed for justice' sake” (IV.iii.18-9).

Julius Caesar begged his family to work for him but the army refused. So Julius Caesar decided to give them all of his riches. Rome had been in a democracy for over 400 years until Julius Caesar became the leader of the government of Rome he stopped all of it. He betrayed Rome by helping to gain power over so he could be the

Some flaws can make you a good or a bad leader, depending on how they are used or directed. One of these such traits is ambition. Marc Antony was very ambitious, which could have been very good for him as leader, but he was so ambitious that he killed his own family members. This is very important, because he does this to not anger his fellow rulers of Rome. If someone is willing to kill off their own family, then how can one know they will not kill others to stay in power?

Cady’s three-way phone call helped her build a position above Regina from Gretchen’s perspective. The last element that Cady showcased was managerial. As she began to effectively breakdown Regina’s assets — her minions and her boyfriend — Cady began to gain control and slowly moved towards being the new commander. To protect the efficiency and effectiveness of her plan, Cady had to quickly replace any part of the process that posed a threat to her new organization. This is evident when she starts singing acapella during the talent show to save The Plastics from embarrassment.
