find a city, an episode in the history of that city, and something in that episode that demands explanation (use a Why question to frame that something if you need to) This is not a paper about telling historical facts. Through finding a specific period for a city, the time period could be 1 year, 10 years, a century. Through Why question to explain: why does the city develop in this way?

Evaluate the political, social, or economic causes of the french revolution, as well as the long-term impact of the revolution upon France, and then correlate the possibility of historical repetition

This brief report received a great deal of publicity in the news media, with headlines claiming “More girls than boys turning to drugs” (ABC News, Feb. 9, 2006) and “Girls using drugs, alcohol more than boys” (MSNBC, Feb. 9, 2006). This dramatic report is still available on the website of the ONDCP. However, where do things really stand a dozen years later? Are these “alarming trends” still apparent in more recent evidence on alcohol and drug use among young women and men? . Your assignment in Paper 1 is to present a critical, evidence-based examination of claims about gender and alcohol use in the 2006 “Girls and Drugs” report. That is, I want you to use empirical evidence from more recent national surveys to evaluate ONDCP’s claims about “alarming trends” in alcohol use among young women in the U.S. You can earn as many as 15 points by providing a clear, complete, well-documented, and well-written response to this assignment in 1,000 words or more (approximately two single-spaced pages), not counting references. You should focus primarily on patterns of alcohol use, although you can also refer to data on other drugs if it is relevant to your main argument. First, read the ONDCP report on “Girls and Drugs” carefully. Click the following link to read and/or download this ten-page report (in pdf format): Girls and Drugs.pdf Second, you might find it helpful to take a look at the press release that the White House ONDCP distributed to the news media when the “Girls and Drugs” report was released on Feb. 9, 2006. Journalists often use press releases to write their news stories rather than reading the full reports that accompany them: White House Press Release 2/9/2006 The next link will take you to an interesting commentary about the ONDCP report that appeared on the Huffington Post website a few days after the report was released. This article by Maia Szalavitz makes a number of critical observations about the selective and misleading use of statistical data by ONDCP. Read it carefully, because it will give you some good ideas for your own critical analysis of ONDCP’s claims about girls and alcohol use: https://www.huffingtonpost.com/maia-szalavitz/media-botches-drug-trends_b_15604.htm I want you to base your critical evaluation of the ONDCP report on recent epidemiological data collected by the Monitoring the Future study (MTF) and/or the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH). The following links will take you to websites where you can find relevant data from MTF and NSDUH on trends and gender differences in drinking and drug use: 1975-2017 MTF Trends: https://www.monitoringthefuture.org/pubs/occpapers/mtf-occ90.pdf 2013 NSDUH Data: https://www.samhsa.gov/data/sites/default/files/NSDUHresultsPDFWHTML2013/Web/NSDUHresults2013.pdf Your task is to use statistical evidence from one or both of these surveys to evaluate claims in the ONDCP report and the news media about a “growing problem” of alcohol use among teenage women. Are girls really using alcohol more than boys? What does the evidence from recent surveys actually show about “alarming trends” in alcohol use among girls? Be sure to base your answers to these or other questions raised by the 2006 “Girls and Drugs” report on solid evidence from one or both of these national surveys rather than on speculation. Your 1,000+-word paper (SINGLE-SPACED) should be submitted through the assignments folder for Paper 1 by 11:00 p.m. on Sunday, November 18. I will deduct two points a day for late papers. Don’t forget to keep a copy of your paper. The paper will receive the full 15 points credit if it is: (a) clearly focused on the assigned topic; (b) well-organized and systematically argued; (c) adequately supported by empirical data from MTF and NSDUH; (d) free of grammatical errors, typos, and other stylistic problems. I will deduct points to the extent that the paper: (a) fails to address key elements of the assignment (deduct 1-4 points); (b) wanders off topic or lacks coherence (deduct 1-4 points); (c) misinterprets or fails to use empirical evidence (deduct 1-4 points); (d) is marked by lapses in grammar, by typos and misspelled words, or by awkward and unclear writing (deduct 1-3 points). https://behs364.socworld.com/docs/Girls_and_Drugs.pdf https://behs364.socworld.com/docs/ONDCP_Girls_and_Drugs.pdf https://www.huffingtonpost.com/maia-szalavitz/media-botches-drug-trends_b_15604.html 1975-2017 MTF Trends: https://www.monitoringthefuture.org/pubs/occpapers/mtf-occ90.pdf 2013 NSDUH Data: https://www.samhsa.gov/data/sites/default/files/NSDUHresultsPDFWHTML2013/Web/NSDUHresults2013.pdf

In this assignment, you are to follow the instructions below:BRAINSTORMING: Feel free to use a cluster or freewriting to develop your ideas.First, read the essay “Choose Your Friends” by Alice Hoffman. In the essay, during her battle with cancer, time (or an appreciation for time) became very important to her. She using a dinner party as an opportunity to explore the idea of sharing time with only the people, dead and alive, that she finds most important to her life. In the essay, she considers the famous 19th century poet Emily Dickinson as a guest. She also considers inviting people she’s always wanted to spend time with, however, never had.
After you read the essay, consider who you would invite to a dinner party at your house. Are these people dead or alive or both? Are they imaginary, such as characters from fiction or film? You should have a at least five people – NO MORE. It’s not a rave – just dinner at your house.
Also, DO NOT invite people you already know, like your mother or grandfather or boyfriend. This is a creative exercise, so you have to do the hard work of creating a new world from an imagined experience.
After you have thought about your list of invited guests, think about what each person/character would say or do. In the essay, Hoffman imagines what the guests would say, how they would speak to her, what her responses and actions would be. How do your guests behave?
It is important to know your characters well. For instance, Hoffman knows about Emily Dickinson’s shyness and hermit-like behavior because she researched the characters. She uses this knowledge to help us understand Dickinson’s actions at the party.
Don’t use cliche [see Module 2 handout Writing Worksheet-Cliches]. For instance, if you use Batman as your invited guest, don’t use a scene from the film because that would be plagiarism. Think of how
After you’ve thought about your characters/guests, write your story. You can choose to mimic Alice Hoffman’s style, in which she writes about what she thinks it might be like to invite the poet and the artists and the people with pink hair. However, you can also write it like a story: with a beginning, a middle and an ending.
Your story should be at least a page in length.
