Specific troubles James Town faced was the crew ate all the food they had on the ship therefore no food when they landed. When packing, they couldn’t pack food for the new world, only when they were on the ship. In the time that the mayflower arrived, it was winter and many got sick and died. The cold took over their bodies and hunger in addition to dehydration also took many lives. Thankfully the Natives noticed the struggle.…
Crofton Maryland is a serene suburban town with a large population beautifully set up with a lot of green space. There are many little neighborhoods that have their own small playgrounds or parks.

Crofton is a beautiful and kind community that I am proud to say I grew up in.…

Introduction Detroit, Michigan is a unique city boasting of an iconic past, a gloomy present, and a potentially bright future. Once one of America’s largest and most thriving cities because of professional opportunities in the automotive industry, Detroit fell to devastating lows after the loss of thousands of jobs from Ford Motor, General Motors, and Chrysler. Detroit is the 18th overall most populated city in the United States, the largest city in the State of Michigan, and recently became the largest American city to file for bankruptcy. Though the city currently faces a laundry list of problems, I believe that Detroit is fully capable of hosting a successful Olympic Game years from now that could help change the overall condition of the…

Schools, parents, and police personnel are all being affected by their actions that cause many to rebel for a change. Liquor store owners need to become not only stricter to their customers, but to post signs and other visual images that inform minors of the consequences of purchasing and drinking alcohol based beverages. Is it not frightening to know that your underage child can easily walk in a liquor store and purchase alcohol at ease whenever he or she pleases? Who would not be upset by such events? What would happen if an accident or worse death occurs due to the alcohol a store owner allowed that child to purchase?…
This event can be greatly explained through a functionalist sociological perspective. Functionalist perspective “seeks to explain social organization and change in terms of the roles performed by different social structures, phenomena, and institutions”(Chambliss & Eglitis 17). In which a French scholar, Émile Durkheim believes that any deviance acts such as Jim Jones’s actions, “serves social function” and “labeling some acts as deviant” reminds “members of society what is “normal” or “moral” ”(Chambliss & Eglitis 18). With that being said, I will be using the functionalist theoretical perspective in order to display how the evolution and formation of Jonestown impacted society.…
The area that I would like to talk about is Morgantown, West Virginia. To some, Morgantown can be considered a tourist attraction. Home to the Big 12 Mountaineers, West Virginia University has over 30,000 students alone. However, outside of the campus is a suburban area with a population of 30,855. With all of these people in this area of West Virginia, it is very important that everyone stays connected.…
If the minimum drinking age were lowered to eighteen, it would reduce the dangerous drinking habits of eighteen to twenty year olds. If you can fight for your county in…
In 1984 the Minimum Drinking Age Act, also known as MDLA 21, was signed by Ronald Reagan requiring all states to establish a minimum drinking age of 21. The goal of this bill was to reduce the number of drunk driving incidents. Initially traffic fatalities did decline, but those under 21 still continued to drink. This created an “underground” drinking scene where risky and irresponsible decisions occurred that lead to a whole new set of problems. I’m interested in this subject because of the prevalence of underage drinking I am surrounded by in college and how those who choose not to drink are still affected by alcohol.…
One of the largest concerns in the economy today is the underaged consumption of alcohol. This has become a major problem in recent years as it has led to an increased number of drunk driving accidents as well as other alcohol related incidents (Choose Responsibility). As a result of the cumulative occurrences over the years, Congress has had a difficult time determining the appropriate age to legalize the consumption of alcohol. There are numerous reasons as to why many believe the drinking age should be lowered from 21 to 18, although there are many arguments against it as well. As of currently, all 50 U.S. states have set the minimum drinking age to 21.…
Small town, Saturday night, midnight… high school teens bring the booze to the biggest party around. The problem is it’s illegal and it’s an addiction. Alcohol consumption of young adults seems to be an everlasting issue at hand, but the negative effects of underage drinking are obvious to see. The U.S. Congress “passed the National Minimum Drinking Age Act in 1984, establishing 21 as the minimum legal purchase age” for a reason.…
