A Bigger Bang

for what seemed to be years maybe it would not seem so terrifying. However all the money I had saved went into this horrifying plane ride, and my “room” on this island of dreams. After take off it was hours until I felt some major turbulence and then BANG! The plane’s cargo bay door flew open and started to suck everything in the bay out into the open air. I slipped and slid, but managed to grab onto the jeep and then I was falling, so close to hit the ground…. Where am I? The room seems so…

Disney Fairy Tales Vs Reality Once upon a time there were two universes. One universe contained every female child’s dream, while the other universe contained the harsh reality of life. They both showed all the signs of a functioning mankind. People roamed the streets, couples meet up to talk about their day, and the environment around them carried on without a glitch. All of these signs were completely different in these two universes, though. The first world was one created by…

wouldn’t take a whole lot for my younger self to say that I was ‘pretty much a big deal’. I had straight As, starred in the fifth grade musical, and was involved in nearly every club that Prairie View Elementary had to offer. The year ended with a bang, and I was honored to have spoken about it. There was an immense amount of disappointment, but excitement all in one year: Simon Cowell left American Idol and broke my heart, Despicable Me and Inception (two of my favorite movies then and now)…

piece on three plates. One plate for me, one for grandma, and one for himself. Friday was the only night grandma would allow me to eat in front of the TV, and not force me to talk about school or whatever sport I was playing at the time. As the big bang theory played on the television, I watched mindlessly, with no idea what was to come. In the small farming town where I grew up, there was one things they preached like church, always eat your…

In this assignment I am going to compare the teleological argument with evolution and see how it differs in opinion. I will also look at what seems the most realistic approach. The teleological argument is an argument in which can also be known as design arguments. The teleological argument is famously associated with ST. Thomas Aquinas who states that the design argument is one of his five ways of knowing that God is real and that he exists. The teleological argument uses evidence from nature…

The Last Ride Gidal awoke from his short-lived rest, his eyelids - peeled apart to reveal a scene that was none too familiar to him. He had been on the same train for three days, the sound of train wheels clanging was just white-noise. The outside world, only visible through small cracks in the wooden carriage. He was a Jew, like the other seventy who had been herded carelessly into cattle cars, treated as if they were animals – pests. He went to peer out one of the small cracks, pushing his…

To what extent to our concepts shape our conclusions? “Informed decision making comes from a long tradition of guessing and then blaming others for inadequate results.” Whilst Scott Adams maybe correct, there are many factors that play a role in not only the decisions you make but also the conclusions you arrive to. There are many different ways to process thinking, for example one can play by the rules or one can do what they feel is best for them, one can also do what is best for the greater…

Eddie and Sam Antar will be names that no one will ever forget along with their electronic store, Crazy Eddie. Crazy Eddie first started out as Sights and Sounds but thanks to Eddie Antar’s strong and aggressive sale tactics, the name was changed. The name came from a nickname customers called Eddie for all his crazy low prices and tactics (S. Antar, “Crazy Eddie Early”). Thus Crazy Eddie was created. At the time Crazy Eddie’s was known for their crazy low prices and in your face advertising.…

Are More Laws the Answer? BANG!!! A shot is fired into a crowd. Police rush to the scene and handcuff the criminal, who was immobilized by a bystander’s shot. The man who was carrying a concealed weapon is being praised by police and other bystanders for stopping a crime from being committed. Should he be praised though?
