5. Never walk past under someone's extended arm. If you do, you will experience no more growth spurt.
6. Pointing to the rainbow will cause you to lose a finger. In order to prevent that, one should only point a muddy finger to the rainbow.
In Haiti, when I see a rainbow, I used to stick my finger in mud before I pointed and said, "Look at this rainbow!"
7. When you're cooking rice especially, filling up your mouth with air so that your cheeks are "super" inflated will double the size of the your meal.
8. Rain on a sunny day means that the devil is having a domestic dispute with his wife.
9. Rocks of thunder: Precious shiny "rocks" are deposited on earth whenever it thunders. A person that finds such a "rock" will live a fertile, healthy, and prosperous life.
Actually, a few people in Haiti have claimed to have found some of these rocks. ( I hear that they look really shiny : -)
10. If you open an umbrella indoors, death will loom over the whole house.
11. If you eat standing up, you'll end up with a swollen leg.
12. If you walk around on your knees, you'll cause the death of one of your parents.
13. If your feet get swept by a cleaning broom, you'll never marry.
14. On your wedding day, if you let your new husband slip the ring on your finger pass the big knuckle, he will dominate the relationship.
That's why you'll see a Haitian bride use her thumb to block the ring from being slipped too far into her finger.
15. Rain on your wedding day means that your marriage will last.
16. To outlive your husband, you must wear a black pantie on your wedding day.

21. If a black bird flies into your home you must kill it, otherwise death will come to someone close to you. People will usually shut all doors and windows of their home to trap a black birds that flies in.
Can you just imagine the distress that some people might experience over an escaped bird?
22. People not in good health do not attend funerals. If they do, they'll be the next one to be buried.
23. If a funeral procession passing in the streets suddenly stops in front of your house, you have to quickly throw a bucket of water at the entrance of your house to prevent death from coming into your home.
Oh! My aunt used to do that a lot! In Arcahaie, we lived not too far from the cemetery. A funeral procession (which comprises of the priests, the altar boys, men carrying the coffin, followed by the family members of the deceased) often passes in front of our house. Sometimes the coffin is heavy and the men have to take a break, so the procession stops for a few seconds. When that happens it is said that the deceased is reluctant to go to the cemetery. God forbid! this should happen in front of your house. It is a big deal.
24. Ringing in the ears means someone is talking about you.
25. If your right hand itches, you're about to receive some money.
26. Severe and recurrent acid reflux in a pregnant woman means that the baby will have a lot of hair. The acidic stomach means that the baby is growing hair.

28. If you run into some kind of misfortune on New Year's Day, this same misfortune will follow you throughout the whole year.
I specifically remember trying to avoid corporal punishment from my dad on new year's day so that I won't be whipped thoughout the whole year. My friends and I used to feel so sorry for those kids that get whipped on new year's day. "There goes his luck!" we said to ourselves.

Read the excerpt from Catching Sun Rays.
But there is another benefit: switching to renewable energy can create jobs. One environmental group says solar power could mean hundreds of thousands of jobs in the United States. For example, the largest solar farm on the East Coast in New York created more than 200 local construction jobs. And the farm makes enough electricity each year to power 4,500 homes!
Why does the evidence provided in the excerpt make the author's argument more effective?
It is vague.
It is specific.
It is complicated.
It is scientific.
Answer: It is specific because it talks specificly about how renewable energy benefits the economy, creates jobs, and most of all to save energy. The answer to the question is it is specific. Hope this helps you!
The correct response is - It is specific because it discusses in detail how renewable energy boosts the economy, creates jobs, and, most importantly, reduces energy use. The question has a specific response.
What is renewable energy?The energy that is derived from resources can be regenerated naturally over time and are therefore considered to be renewable. It includes energy sources like sunlight, wind, water currents, and geothermal heat. Despite the fact that the majority of renewable energy sources are sustainable, some are not.
Anything that is regenerable has an unlimited supply or may be replaced. Renewable energy sources never run out. Things that are renewable are always fresh and new because the word "re" implies "again" and the supply can never run out. This phrase frequently refers to energy.

Read these paragraphs and answer the question that follows:
In 2008, more than one million American students gave nearly 20 million service hours to their communities. They made a difference in people's lives and learned some important life lessons in the process. Organizations, including schools, are actively promoting service for all citizens as a way to be involved, help others, and improve themselves.
Service is helping other people and being active in your community. For example, one group of teens planted a community garden with their friends. They grow a variety of vegetables. The garden requires regular care. The teens donate the produce to a local soup kitchen. Workers there use the produce to help feed people in the community. By tending the garden and donating their produce, the teens are actively helping make life a bit better for others in their community.
Service is valuable in ways that cannot be measured in dollars. People volunteer or serve others without expecting money or gifts in return. Service is not about earning money. It is not just collecting money to give to a group. It is about action and contributing to the common good. The people who serve as well as those who receive help benefit in many ways that are more important than money or gifts. For example, a soup kitchen provides essential food to people who may otherwise go hungry. The soup kitchen is extremely valuable for those struggling to get enough to eat. Those serving learn about compassion and how helping others can improve life for all.
Millions of Americans are making society better for themselves and for others. They are participating citizens in their community, raising up those who are less fortunate. In return, they become better people who can understand the perspectives and needs of others, which are invaluable and important qualities of good citizens.
Which sentence best represents the main idea of paragraph three, the second body paragraph?
A) Service is valuable in ways that cannot be measured in dollars.
B) It is about action and contributing to the common good.
C) Workers there use the produce to help feed people in the community.
D) The soup kitchen is extremely valuable for those struggling to get enough to eat.

Paragraphs are the building blocks of papers. Many students define paragraphs in terms of length: a paragraph is a group of at least five sentences, a paragraph is half a page long, etc. In reality, though, the unity and coherence of ideas among sentences is what constitutes a paragraph. A paragraph is defined as “a group of sentences or a single sentence that forms a unit” (Lunsford and Connors 116). Length and appearance do not determine whether a section in a paper is a paragraph. For instance, in some styles of writing, particularly journalistic styles, a paragraph can be just one sentence long. Ultimately, a paragraph is a sentence or group of sentences that support one main idea. In this handout, we will refer to this as the “controlling idea,” because it controls what happens in the rest of the paragraph.
