The rewards loyalty that my family participate in would be at Sam's Club. Sam's Club require their customers to pay membership fees in order to shop at their department stores. The price ranges from forty-five dollars to one-hundred dollars. My family usually participates in the one-hundred dollar membership, because of the cash rewards program.

Thus, the cash rewards at Sam's Club allows my family earn money back. Also, if for some reason you don't at least receive forty-five dollars back (the difference in membership cost), Sam's…

In the US, highway signs are in the customary system. For example, if Iw as traveling to Alexandria, Virginia, I would take I-270 and a see a sign saying “Alexandria 35 miles away”. This is the case throughout the United States, and it would cost billions of dollars to fix everyone of these signs. And for a country that’s about 19.3 trillion dollars in debt, we don't need that burden. Also, manufacturing companies would have to spend another billions of dollars trying to fix the values on…

Every few years, an ant colony will expand outside its normal exploring territory and move all the way across South America. This colony arises other colonies along the way and builds their army of mass destruction. This swarm can grow up to 2 miles wide, and 10 miles long. That’s 20 square miles!! This…

Have you ever trained for a 5k? In training you have to keep track of where you run and what speed you were going at, imagine one day you went out to practice running the 5k and made it in 45 minutes! When you get home you notice you forgot to turn on your running log, all that work and nothing to show. That’s how it was for early sailors, they had trouble keeping track of how fast they were going, when it changed , and where they sailed. To solve this they had a Traverse Board an early…

According to business insider America is the world’s 10th most prosperous nation. Consequently, why should America compromise their success by sticking with an unconventional system of measurement? It is for this and many other reasons why the U.S.A should convert to the metric system. The metric system is a multinational unit of measurement in both the real world and the science field.

gains. In 1881, the fledgling city stood at the threshold of a surge in population, industry, and wealth.14 The family’s oral history speculates that Charley followed the St. Croix River south from Duluth to Chisago County.15 This is highly unlikely, since it required an approximately forty mile detour into Wisconsin to reach the source of the river. Charley likely used the railroad, either as a passenger or as a physical guide to direct him to his destination. He conceivably paused in…

my dad's friend Aaron, his two daughters and our friends Amanda and Ashleigh, and I should go on a 25 mile canoe trip as a fun vacation. It was only a two day trip in which we would canoe 12.5 miles the first day, camp out at night, and then travel the remaining 12.5 miles the next day. Does this really sound like a good idea? A few days after deciding to go, we packed, and travelled across the threshold to Green River in Kentucky. When we arrived, we rented three canoes, packed our belongings…
