This article is about single childless women in their 20s and 30s earning more money than men, which is unprecedented. Maybe the wage gap, which always existed in history and which Judith Bennett traced so well, will go away someday, although this article is about single childless young women. Once women marry and have children they are definitely at an economic disadvantage.

I wrote up my own writing sample today, as one of the program directors suggested. I based it off my own first assignment and I am specifically focusing mainly on reading comprehension.

We have a mystery. There is a bag full of things my grandmother gave me that was always in my closet. It is not there anymore and nobody knows what happened to it. We looked all over. It is a mystery of a Disappearing Bag.

“Wilde” Orlando Bloom has a minor role. He looks very young. So does Ioan Gruffudd. There is a lot of naked Jude Law in this movie too. He looks very young also. Some of the scene transitions are too disjoined. The second part of the movie with the trial just made me angry and sad for humanity. Why are private affairs such public business anyway. I liked the movie but it did seem very cobbled together in its narrative. The second part with the trial is much better than the first, really.
