The hidden-camera interviews, the surprising of unsuspecting alleged crooks with a bombardment of questions, the longevity of the featured reporters, all of these are what made 60 Minutes a success--finishing in the top 10 Nielson ratings for 17 consecutive seasons and counting. Other than the fact that it changed from black-and-white to color with the new technology, the appearance of 60 Minutes has remained consistent. There is no reason to change a thing about such a prosperous show according to Hewitt. Not only has the format remained c ...

... be married to her grave." (III, v, 145) Juliet's parents betray Juliet by not supporting Juliet's pleas for the marriage to be delayed a year. Capulet and Lady Capulet do not know Juliet is married to Romeo, a fact that may have, yet not likely altered these circumstances. Her parent's betrayal causes Juliet to look for comfort from the Nurse. The Nurse also fails to support Juliet's choice against marrying Paris. Instead of supporting Juliet the Nurse instead believes "I think it is best you marry the county...For it excels your first (marriage)." (III, v, 230, 236) Juliet feels betrayed by this reply as the Nurse "... dispraise my lord (Romeo) with that same tounge/Which she hath pra ...

Not too much later, Macbeth discovers that the thane of Cawdor has been killed for crimes against Duncan and he is named thane of Cawdor. "Glamis, and thane of Cawdor! The greatest is behind!" (I. iii,116-117). This fulfillment of the first part of the witches prophecies seals his trust in them and drives him to his next act, Duncan's murder, which is the act that seals his fate and ultimate doom. Just before Macbeth commits the murder of Duncan, he contemplates what he is about to do. "Witchcraft celebrates pale Hecate's offerings" (II. i, 51-52), he muses. This indicates that he fully belie ...
