Why are noise barriers on the sides of highways seemingly always staggered?

So you don't form a resonant chamber, a rectangle, that would cause the noise to be worse. (No, lets be reasonable, shall we?)
Another, more likely, explanation is that you need the ends to overlap, and staggering them is the only logical way to do that. (More rational, actually, don't you think?) Staggering the ends would also strengthen the "box" made up by each unit, so it would not "tip over" in the wind.

Gatsby's commentary on the American Dream is that it's all about money, though money doesn't always make you part of the automatic elite. There is a struggle b/w the newly rich--like Gatsby--and the already established elite, and though money is important, there are other seemingly impossible barriers to penetrate. There are more complicated explanations to this, pointed out thoroughly in the link provided.

Is there a difference between nazi zombies and black ops zombies?
Yes there is! In Nazi Zombies, the game state is more split up, and there are less barriers everywhere. In Nazi Zombies ( Der Riese) the barriers are more separated and not in every single room, rather as in Kino Der Toten (black ops) the barriers are always in every room and there are always more than 1 per room. Also, if you really wanna get to a high round, Nazi Zombies is much easier and there are less zombies per round, rather as in Five, there are swarms of the undead and they are almost impossible to kill. Hope this helps.
