1) "The Harm of not Caring" would be another suitible title for "The Perils of Indifference"
2) Relating "The Lottery" to other situation similar is the Rwanda Genocide. This horrible event connects to the story because while death and war were taking place, many people, including countries stood and watched. The Rwandan Genocide civil was between two tribes, the Tutis and the Hutos. One tribe being more " European" looking then the other, fought and slaughtered the other tribe. While all of these atrocities took place, other countries just stood and watched. Other then Canada, the USA and other superpower countries choose not to intervene, when knowing fully what was happening.
3. Elie Wiesel's speech relates directly to "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson. In the story "The Lottery" one character, Tessie, gets stoned for no real reason. Although getting stoned doesn't happen much in our community, in other society this is a form of punishment used often. In the speech Elie tells of the Holocaust and people doing horrible crimes to people for no real reasons. The killing of Tessie was in fact a public assassination and relates to the death of J.F Kennedy. Moreover the crowd watching Tessie being stoned showed indifference for the poor lady as Eli describes in his speech.

blog?
A good topic to blog about would be fears, what scares you or people. Everyone is afraid of something. No one can say without lying that they are afraid of nothing. From being frightened of spiders to fearing death. Perhaps blogging about what would be a scary situation or a experience that may have been terrifing. It would also be fitting for Halloween coming up!

Top 3 Ice Ceam Flavours
Since working in an ice-cream store for 3 years i have experienced all of the flavors of Nestle, Dairy Land and Island Farms has to offer. Through my taste testing trails i have made a list. This list consists of the best ice cream flavors of all time. To pass the test the ice creams had to excel in the categories of: popularity and demand, over taste, and appearance.
The first flavor on the list is Peanut Butter Binge. This consists of a chocolate base with a swirl of thick peanut butter. This is the most popular flavor and everyone from children to seniors enjoys the rich taste of chocolate with the incorporation of peanut butter. When an in store vote took place in the ice cream parlor, Peanut butter binge won by a landslide. The one word to describe the taste is delicious. The combo of rich chocolate and peanut butter swirl is a beautiful appearance and more of a work of modern art then anything else.
Flavor two on the ice cream scale is Cranberry-Raspberry yogurt sherbet combo. If you’re going for the fat-free route for ice cream is a good flavor to get. Cran-Raspberry has also a high demand, and when the store runs out of the flavor we receive some very angry customers. The taste is quite spectacular again with the combo of two flavors that compliment each other. The tart flavor of cranberry and the subtle taste of raspberry really prove opposites attract. The bright pink color is defiantly a treat for the eye as well.
Last but not least is Raspberry Cheesecake. This honestly tastes as though you are eating a cheese cake. I again always get positive feedback on the spectacular taste of this ice cream. I would recommend this flavor to any cheese cake specialist. The raspberry swirl is very rich and made of real raspberries. This flavor is defiantly one of a kind.
Ice cream is always a treat, and now knowing the correct ones to choose, it will be a cinch to pick the best ones.
