If it is, stop worrying…” (“Biography” 1). Amelia Earhart was faced with many difficult decisions during her career in aviation. She was faced with discrimination, journeys of uncertainty, and even potential death. Amelia Earhart had a bright future ahead of her. She was on her way to the record books of being the first woman to fly across the world. But her path to glory came to an abrupt and unexpected ending.

“Lizzie Borden took an ax, gave her mother forty whacks. When she saw what she had done, gave her father forty-one.” This bone chilling rhyme isn’t just a jump rope game, but a story of a horrifying tragedy. Lizzie Borden was thirty-two years old when she fatally hacked her father and step-mother in their Fall River, Massachusetts, home with a hatchet. Or did she?

She was known as a ‘sex’ symbol. Women idolized Monroe for having such a feminine and seductive nature. Monroe used this to grasp her horrid past and flip the cards to what she seeked in her future. Monroe became a hit, she was known, and very proud of it, but something was still not settling right for Monroe. One thing Monroe seeked more than anything was the attention of Mr. President, which she very well received. “Happy birthday Mr. President”, was Monroe's biggest secret.

There have been many theories about what truly happened to Marilyn following that evening: She overdosed on sleeping pills due to her lack of sleep and outgoing lifestyle President Kennedy ...
