The correct answer is: “But I have never done that for this reason: I have found that there are so many deserving stenographers and secretaries in Washington that needed the work that I just didn't feel it was right to put my wife on the pay roll.”

Indeed, a red-herring is a statement that deflects attention from an issue to another issue of unrelated importance. In this case, no-one had accused Nixon of putting his wife in the payroll and he knew it. However, he decides to use this point to divert attention from him and focus it on his political opponent, who allegedly did put his wife on the payroll.

In Romiette & Julio summarize what happened in Chapter 1-10
deff fn [24]

Romiette and Julio is about a inter-racial relationship, that takes a turn for the worst. It first begins when Julio moves from Texas to Cincinnati to get away from gang violence. He goes to a mostly African American high school. Little did Julio's parents know, that this high school has gangs too. He doesn't have much friends but he gets through the first few weeks. He goes on a chat room and meets Romiette but they don't find out that, they live in the same city and go to the same school, until later. When they do befriend each other, a certain gang called the Devil Dogs who was an African American gang, don't like the fact that the two are getting close so they warn Romiette and Julio. She doesn't think much of it but they think of a plan to make fun of the Devil Dogs. The plan worked but the Devil Dogs weren't going to take the humiliation. A few days later the Devil Dogs kidnap Romiette and Julio and set then in a lake during a thunderstorm. They end of getting out of the boat and back on to land but Romiette is going in and out of conciseness. Julio tries to find shelter but trips and falls in the mud. He then decides to go in the nearest ditch to stay alive with Romiette in hes arms. Police soon finds them and they are sent immediately to the hospital to get checked out. The Devil Dogs are in custody art the police and are probably gonna get charged for kidnapping. Soon, Julio and Romiette are back to normal and neither aren't bothered again about their relationship.

In which sentence is the word frontier used logically?
insens350 [35]
Frontier is defined as 1) a line separating two countries, 2) the extreme limit of settled land beyond which lies wilderness, or 3) <span>the extreme limit of understanding or achievement in a particular area.

Right away we can cross out B because the wilderness is pretty close to a frontier. We can also cross out D because it doesn't make sense with the definitions given. So now we are left with A and C.

A is a funny misuse of the word; they probably meant to say "front." So, now we only have C. C is correct, and it makes sense because space does have an </span>extreme limit of understanding in science.
