I was agreeing with death penalty as punishment for criminals but recently, I am disagreeing with this punishment. from old time until now the death penalty is the capital punishment for criminals. If I were president to a country, I would abolish this judgment. There are several reasons for example there are people who are innocent, and it is possible use of life imprisonment for a criminal rather than killing. My final essay will helps in unravelling the mystery behind the ethics, as well as the use of the death penalty, and also focuses on the main causes of concern related to a death penalty.

Top interviews of second interview are:
-The top point is 20.
1) Mohamed - (http://en191fl12s28mohamedto.blogspot.com/)I would give him 19 points In my perspective Mohammed has the first top interview. He arranges his interview very well. Also, he uses a good way to an interview with people who he did notknow them such as he tries to be funny and friendly to let them feel free to talk. Mohamed has found some interesting points in this interview when I went to read through this interview between them(Mohammed +Joe).
2) Enli Zhang - (http://enlizhang191f12s28.blogspot.com/)
I would give him 18 points. Enli has a good strategy to interview with other people. through my reading to his interview I learned some points what may help me to improve my interview with people. He did not write many paragraphs but he collected the main points of his interview. Enlis' points were deducted on how does the interview read question because the transcript was not rewritten to make it more understandable, so I like this interview3)
I think all students did their best to get what they were looking for of their interviews, even me I tried to get as many as I wanted from my interviews. Finally, I hope you enjoy reading my Interviews and you maybe like them.

Balboa Island
This nice and quiet island in the city of california. It called Balboa Island.
These Pics From My Phone.
I enjoy readying like that.
1) "By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest".
2) "Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail".
3) "Experience is not what happens to you; it's what you do with what happens to you".
4) "Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment".
5) "The teacher who is indeed wise does not bid you to enter the house of his wisdom but rather leads you to the threshold of your mind".
6) "A little knowledge that acts is worth infinitely more than much knowledge that is idle".
7) "Honesty is the best policy".
8) "I don't think about my previous success. I'm happy that the work I've done has been very successful".
9) "I don't feel I made many sacrifices at all. I'm doing my best to juggle".
10) "A wise man is superior to any insults which can be put upon him, and the best reply to unseemly behavior is patience and moderation".
