Missouri Botanical Garden

Incredible growth and development was cultivated from a monumental storm event during the summer of 2013. The first 11 days of July 2013 recorded 20 inches of rain. During the following two days, July 12 and 13, an additional eight inches of rain fell but in a very short period of time. This amount of rain within such a short period of time resulted in a flood of unprecedented proportions for the South Carolina Botanical Garden. The devastation that occurred to the plants, animals, and grounds was of unfathomable proportions. The implausible amount of rain overwhelmed the Duck Pond and caused the water to breach the dam. The newly installed Natural Heritage Garden Trail received the brunt of the raging waters. The mountain meadow just below the dam was obliterated by the rushing water, which resulted in the loss of trees, shrubs, and geogrid trails. As the land began to wash away, concern began to rise over the foundation of the Hunt Cabin (1825) and action had to be taken because the foundation was…

While inside the botanical gardens I first want to soak up my environment with my eyes closed; I can heighten my senses to the various…

the universe would have been terribly uninteresting. Architecture has taught me to learn all the values of art, to have a fantasy, creativity vision, and endless imagination. The two buildings I truly admire and find most riveting are the Wainwright Building, and the Jeppesen Terminal Building. These two such buildings conquered some barriers, affiliated with the people in their areas, made people feel stunned, and functioned to astonish creations for the U.S., and the world to see.…

Kendzior 's article compares Darren Wilson 's administrative leave and the article of "The Grand Jury Says no Now St. Louis make the most of it" with the rubbing of salt in a wound; Ferguson 's explosive history combined with its…

“A league of their own” is a film which follows the story of a women’s league baseball team. The film was set in 1943, a period when baseball was predominately a male sport. The sudden arise of a women only team was met with ridicule. This essay analyzes the social structure of the women’s baseball team with a focus on the concept of status inconsistency. We examine the negative view of the females as baseball players and how the females developed to overcome that problem. The film is set…

first day came to an unexpected ending as the rain drizzled on the Illinois road, hazard light blinked and my sisters and I sat in the car as we waited because our popup’s leaf-spring popped out. It was only the first day and something already went wrong. Come day two we’re still traveling and we blew a tire on our cargo trailer. I don’t remember who changed it, or where we were, but someone may have wanted to express Murphy’s Law to us even though nothing worse happened for the remainder of…
