Abstract
This paper reviews the facts of this extra-terrestrial citing in this New Mexican city with an emphasis on a review of the crash.
From the Paper
"Also, the UFO Museum of Research, along with many other sources, says a farmer named Mac Brazel was the first person to see evidence of the controversial UFO crash. He was riding out on his horse to round up some stray sheep when he noticed some metal debris scattered over a large area. As Brazel looked closer, he noticed a trench hundreds of feet long had been dug into the land. The first thing he did was drag a large piece of metal from the trench to a shed near his house. Brazel wanted to show the metal piece to his neighbors. The neighbors had no idea what it was, so they immediately notified the police. The police went straight to the Central Intelligence Agency, where Major Jesse Marcel and his troops cleaned the debris from the site of the wreck. The cleanup alone took about three days (Roswell, n.p.)."

Abstract
This paper suggests that the United States government covered up the recovery of extraterrestrial beings after the reported flying saucer crash that occurred on July 5, 1947. It includes information about the farmer who claims to have seen the extraterrestrials first hand and how the US Air Force still continue to change the story. The author argues that instead of denying their existence, scientists, scholars, and the government should should share the information, study it, and learn from it.
From the Paper
"Marcel reported what he believed to be the leftovers of a flying saucer. Quickly, the military closed off the area for a number of days and collected the pieces. First, it was taken to Roswell Army Air Field. Eventually, it was delivered via B-29 and C-54 aircraft to Dayton, Ohio's Wright Field. Roswell Army Air Field was the home of the 509th Bomb Group, which was the only atomic bomb group in the world. Jesse Marcel was the intelligence officer for them. Everybody in that group was handpicked for their credibility and elite qualifications.
"Following the examination of the debris, Colonel William Blanchard, Commander of the Bomb Group, ordered press officer, Walter Haut, to issue a press release. Haut, now 75 years old, remembered Blanchard saying, "We have in our possession a flying saucer. This thing crashed north of Roswell, and we've shipped it all to General Ramey, 8th Air Force at Forth Worth" (qtd. in Jaroff). On July 8, 1947, Haut's press release was released with a bang, "RAAF CAPTURES FLYING SAUCER ON RANCH IN ROSWELL REGION." It was transmitted over wire services, quickly enough to make headlines in over 3- U.S. afternoon newspapers that same day (Jeffrey). Roswell would never be the same."

From the Paper
"Monetary policy became ambiguous between February 1930 and 1932. Government security purchases in the open market continued to decline until 1932. This reduced liquidity by lowering non-borrowed reserves. Although the interest rate was reduced between March 1930 and September 1931, it was raised twice in late 1931. This made loans more expensive and deterred people and corporations from borrowing. (1929...)"

From the Paper

He states that these actors of the economic field had a direct involvement in the stock market and had become too greedy to actually see what was happening to the market around them---too greedy to actually fear the recuperation's of what was easily predictable as the downfall."

Abstract
In this article, the writer first describes the financial environment in the United States before the 1929 stock market crash occurred. The writer notes that for years the market was driven by public speculation. The writer points out that public leaders and role models played a major part in many of the public's beliefs. The public was fed lies and told stories that nobody could predict and were only backed by speculation. The writer explains that banks and many rich entrepreneurs inflated the market. The writer maintains that many times the market could have crashed before 1929, but speculation and trust in the economy did not let that happen. The writer concludes that speculation is often the aid to failure, where the best example was seen from 1925 to 1929. This paper uses mla style footnotes but does not include a bibliography page.
From the Paper
"For years the market was driven by public speculation. Public leaders and role models played a major part in many of the public's beliefs. They were fed lies and told stories that nobody could predict and were only backed by speculation. Banks and many rich entrepreneurs inflated the market. Many times the market could have crashed before 1929, but speculation and trust in the economy did not let that happen. Many were at a loss for what happened and were left with nothing. Sorrow and depression filled the streets throughout the country, especially New York City. It was not until many years later that the market recovered enough to pull investors in. What brought so many people the "American Dream" of becoming rich without physical activity, led to the eventual downfall of an economy which would drive the nation for years to come."

Abstract
This essay is a paper referring to Paul Haggis's 2004 film on racism in L.A.. "Crash", referring to the course text, individualism versus collectivism, and also, persuasion, as concepts of varying kinds. The film is referred to in its two-day story line that sees 8 generic citizens of L.A. forced to confront their racist attitudes favoring avoidance, for no such avoidance due to prejudice is possible. The conclusion implicates that a positive collectivism and persuasion are required to dismantle a racist culture that has intensified since the 1992 L.A. Riots.

Abstract
This paper discusses the film "Crash" and its depiction of racism and the prevalence of racism in the urban areas of the country, noting that the film dramatizes the reality and the way tensions can escalate to a major disturbance. It is significant that the film is set in Los Angeles, a city that has experienced major disturbances related to race, notably the riot after the first Rodney King verdict, which escalated beyond simple back and white violence to include violence between blacks and Koreans, and blacks and Hispanics as well.
From the Paper
"Racial tensions in American society continue to shape much public discourse and many interactions between people on the streets. People may like to believe that race has become a non-issue, but it has not. The recent film Crash dramatizes the reality and the way tensions can escalate to a major disturbance. It is significant that the film is set in Los Angeles, a city that has experienced major disturbances related to race, notably the riot after the first Rodney King verdict, which escalated beyond simple back and white violence and included violence between blacks and Koreans and blacks and Hispanics as well. The film also does not confine itself to black-white relations but includes the other racial groups in the city and shows that race may only be a non-issue to whites who want to see it in that light.
