Marie LaVeau was born on Sept 10, 1794 in New Orleans, LA and was the daughter of Charles Leaveaux, and his slave mistress name Marqurite. Marie was mixed with black, white, and Indian.

Senior Vanessa L. is wearing a costume for this year’s Haunted Hallway. She shares about her experience; “I had so much fun scaring the middle schooler. Their reactions are priceless. Each one funnier than the last. I am really glad that for my last year at TFS I got to do something as cool as

The annual Phi Alpha Theta (PAT) initiation brunch is one of the most exciting events to take place every year. It took place on Friday, March 18, 2016 at the Alta Vista Country Club in Placentia and it was nice to see familiar faces, while meeting the new members of the organization.

Today I am honored to be standing here presenting the Conn Smythe trophy to my friend Duncan Keith. The Conn Smythe is awarded to the most valuable player during the Stanley Cup Playoffs. I first heard of this tremendous defensemen back in the 2009-10 season where he helped prevail the Chicago Blackhawks to their first Stanley Cup victory since 1961. It seems like Duncan never has a bad season and makes very few mistakes on the ice. The amount of time he puts into this game really shows his dedication and love for hockey.

One day my sister Dakota, my uncle Raven, my mom, and I went to a farm the day before Halloween. At first we were just going to get a few pumpkins but then, I saw a corn maze. I asked my mom “ Can we go in it, please,” My mom said,” If it is free.” I told her thanks. We went to a pumpkin patch to get a couple pumpkins.

Hello, everyone. Today we’re writing about me. Here’s for you guys some interesting things about my life. First, we are going to embark what I am. People call me woodchuck or whistlepig.

Good morning, Trust you had a wonderful weekend, hope the screenwriting and projects are coming along.  I forgot to mention the film screening Thursday, February 16 on campus.   The film, 13th, is a documentary by director Ava DuVernay and makes an impactful connection between the 13th Amendment of the Constitution and the increasingly high rate of mass incarceration in the US, criminalization of African Americans, and privatization of prisons.  If you are on campus and can come out the screening begins at 4p and a student-led discussion will follow at 5:45-7p.

I. Introduction A. Attention-getter: How many of you have ever played dreidel? (spin dreidel on visualizer) B. Reason to listen: CMU is rich in the diversity of people, cultures and religion.

All Hallow 's Eve, or as it’s known to everyone who 's not a priest in a B horror movie: Halloween, has never been a pre-holiday season staple in my Southern Baptist family. My parents have never embraced the spooky side of Halloween. While the other kids were cramming entire chocolate bars into their mouths amid heated debates over how many rolls of Smarties it takes to equal a fun size Twix bar for a trade, I was learning how candy corn can remind me of Jesus. Not only are my parents morally opposed to Halloween, but we also live off a highway in the country where the trees form a tunnel of foliage over the road almost cheering on drivers as they fly around corners like NASCAR racers. If I had ever dared to go out trick-or-treating on this Daytona speedway of a road, I would have

King Hamlet’s ghost in Hamlet plays a very significant role in Shakespeare’s play even though he only appears briefly in the very beginning and two other times throughout the play. King Hamlet’s ghost furthers the play in many ways. He affects action by setting the play in motion, he affects the theme of revenge, and he helps develop other characters, specifically his son, Hamlet. He sets the play in motion by causing the wheels to spin inside of Prince Hamlet’s head, the ghost is the whole reason for Hamlet trying to extract revenge upon his murderous Uncle Claudius who is now the King of Denmark. The ghost affects the theme of revenge by causing Young Hamlet to be seized by vengeance, the whole play turns into a story of Prince Hamlet trying to avenge his

One night at exactly ten o'clock Ella Chesterman, a fifteen year old, heard a loud and strange noise. She looked around as scared as a mouse trying to see where the sound originated from. She heard the noise again and arose her parents and her brother, Brayden. After her family arose the sound occurred again and her family rushed outside to find out where it was coming from. There appeared to be nothing strange outside until…

Billy- How are you doing today? Tamara - Tis the season (laughs) Billy- Yeah with the holidays all coming upon us so fast.

Halloween Journal For my journal I am choosing C; my most fun halloween ever. I can’t recall how long ago this was but it was a few years ago. One year when we thought we were too old to still go “trick or treating” all of my friends and I still dressed up and decorated a house just to get in the sprit of things.

My family is now gone, forever. Whilst all of the people in the theme park ran away from it as quick as possible, someone grasped my arms. His face deformed; his eyes were as dark as the night-sky; he was powerful and fearful. He gave me a message and
