1) The Tragedies of Apathy
2) The graphic violence of the stoning seems completely bizarre for the members of a community that seemed so normal because of the lack of care and sympathy displayed by the villagers. This situation can be closely related to that of the Holocaust where the German society displayed so much unnecessary hatred towards the Jewish people. The way the villagers inhumainly turned on the innocent girl and stoned her to death was almost identical to the brutality shown by the Germans towards the Jews.
3) Elie Wiesel's speech directly relates to the Lottery with the events that take place in the Lottery being very similar to that of the Holocaust. The way the Americans did nothing because the Holocaust wasn't happening to them showed that they didn't care. In the Lottery, the citizens of the village displayed the same type of mentallity by showing no emotion at all when it came time to killing one of their own. Since they weren't the one being killed they had no probem with the idea of killing someone.

Top Three Cars
I am a really big fan of cars so I am going to blog about the top three cars in the world. The three candidates will be the Koenigsegg CCXR, the Bugatti Veyron and the Saleen S7 Twin-Turbo. Each car will be judged on top speed, rarity, overall look and price.
The Koenigsegg CCXR has a top speed of 250 MPH with an acceleration rate of 0 to 62 MPH in 3.1 seconds. That is pretty fast! There has only been six of these cars made so far so they are really hard to come by. The overall look of this car is amazing. It screams speed and wealth everytime you look at it. Although this car has alot speed and glamour it comes at a hefty price of $650 000!
The Bugatti Veyron is the fastest production car in the world. Its massive 1001 horsepower engine boasts a top speed of over 408km/h! With only about one car being manufactured each week there aren't many of these cars around. Not only is this car the fastest in the world but also one of the nicest looking with its curvacious and aerodynamic body . But even if this car displays an image of pure domination and power I dont know if its worth the outrageous price of $1.6 million!
The Saleen S7 Twin Turbo has a great combination of speed, acceleration and looks. It has a top speed of 250 mph and with an acceleration rate of 0-60mph in 2.8 seconds it will definately throw you back in your seat. Although there are more Saleen S7 Twin Turbos on the road then Bugatti Veyron's and Koenigsegg CCXR's but that may be because of the difference in price. The Saleen has the lowest price of all three supercars standing at $585,296 which is probaly why they are not as rare as the Bugatti and Koenigsegg but that is still a large sum of money. This sleek and stylish car is almost perfectly balanced for the amount of attention you get for your purchase.
In conclusion all three cars are absolutely magnificent achievements in the motor industy. It was a hard decision but after careful consideration and thought I think that the top car out of all three would have to be the Koenigsegg CCXR. It is the second fastest car in the world by only a few tenths of a second off the Bugatti veyron and it is the most fairly priced. Not to mention it is the rarest and best looking of the three! So if I had enought money to buy any of the cars I would definately choose the Koenigsegg CCXR.
