"I Love Lucy"

   One of the most memorable television show of all time is I Love Lucy. It first aired in the 1950s and was a smashing hit from the start. Lucille Ball (main character of the show) was an excellent performer and really gave the audience and television watchers a great laugh. She always was getting into crazy predicaments in every episode. And to think the producers of CBS thought that I Love Lucy wasn't going to make it! Lucille Ball will always be remembered for her outstanding acting.
   I Love Lucy is a show about a wife (Lucille Ball) who is married to a band leader (Desi Arnaz) in New York City. In every episode Lucy (Lucille) is always finding herself in a "jam" and she always has a plan to get out of that situation but she ends up making it worse or just embarrassing herself. Her landlords, also her best friends, (Fred and Ethel Mertz) usually get affiliated in her messes. Over all it's a hilliarous show, especially because you never know what kind of trouble Lucy is going to end up in.
  The show I Love Lucy originally seemed like a long shot to the producer of CBS so Lucille Ball and (her real husband) Desi Arnaz paid a pre-cut price of what the show was going to cost, and called it a Desilu production. And after they started filming it turned out that I Love Lucy was a great hit and they made tons of money off of it, and still kept the production name Desilu.
   To this day many people enjoy watching  I Love Lucy reruns because they are hilarious and very entertaining. Even though Lucille Ball has passed away, her memory and legacy is left with us in her show.

Someone very special

   Someone very special and dear to me is my Dad. He has always been there for me and encouraging me along the way. He has set a great example for me to follow and I'm tring my best to do so.
   I believe my Dad is such a  great Dad because my grandfather may have not always been there for him and encouraging him  as he was growing up. Which I think is part of the reason why he always puts me first in his life and worries about me, before himself. I'm very cognizant of this because he tells me almost every single day.
   Knowing that someone is always there for me is comforting and also relieving. Because I know if I'm ever in trouble or struggling through some obstacle, that my dad is always going to be there for me.
   My dad is always there for me spiritually to.  He is constantly encouraging me in the Lord and teaching me new things. He is continuously quoting scripture and reminding me that the Lord comes before all other pleasures of the world. He also loves to remind me that my days will be long if I honor my father and mother. And during all our conversations about The Lord, He enjoys telling me what God is doing through his life and loves to hear about what He is doing in mine. I love and appreciate my dad more than he knows, and I consider him one of the most special people in my life.

Adolf Hitler in World War II

   "Today Germany is ours and tomorrow the whole world!" -Adolf Hitler. During the 1920s and 1930s Germany was very vulnerable because of their prior defeat in World War I. A man named Adolf Hitler made a very vivid impression upon the people of Germany and saw this as an opportunity to seize power of Germany. He took it upon himself to lead the people of Germany out of their depression. His answer to Germany of why the people were suffering was because of the Jews. The reason people believe Adolf Hitler blamed Germany's sufferings on the Jews was because his mother became pregnant with the head of a are wish household and was paid to go away and raise the child alone ( Adolf Hitler was the conceived child). Also his mother died from a cancer, and the Jewish doctor didn't save her life or cure the cancer. And because of this he believed that they should be held responsible and "punished" the right way.
   Adolf Hitler's way of punishing the Jews was ultimately death, but by terrifying ways. Nazis ( the name of the German soldiers fighting for Hitler) would take Jews to concentration camps where you would be brutally punished. The most common ways to die in concentration camps were: being stuffed into what looked like a shower but was actually a gas chamber, having you eyes injected with a substance that would change the color of them, being pulled in and out of water very quickly so that your eyes would begin to bleed, being shot, hunger deprivation, and lastly the Nazis would throw babies in the air and use them as shooting targets.
