“It’s a rare gift to understand your life is wondrous, and that it won’t last forever.” (pg. 5) Context: This is said by Arrow. She is remembering the time she borrowed her father’s car to go see some friends who lived in the country. Her favorite song came on, and the way the shadow of the leaves landed on her window made her pull over to cry. Arrow felt very happy and joyous to be alive. Saying, “she stumbled into the core of what it is to be human.” (pg.5) Content Analysis: This quotes…

Economic Factors As with any new innovation or item that comes into the market, economics are also affected. In an article by the Traffic Safety Resource Center it is stated, “A conservative estimate of money saved to the economy by reducing car crashes in America would equal about $99 billion each year” (Giarratana). The cost of car repairs, insurance, and possible medical bills after a crash can add up very quickly. If the number of car accidents is reduced, the cost of insurance can then be…

Real Love One of my all-time favorite songs is Real Love by Mary J. Blige. In it she details her quest for love, and describes the real love she has been searching for. I completely understand how she felt; as I search for real love. Through the process, I learned some valuable lessons; and gained wisdom on this quest. I want to use this post to share some things that I learned on this journey. Be what you are searching for! I always tell my friends, “You have to be a whole person before…

The American Auto Industry is in a state of perpetual flux as any business should be. In taking into context the creation of the Model T by Ford and the improvements and innovation that has proceded the conception, construction, safety and environmental impact and governmental financial aid to the automobile in the past century and a half, we can safely say that even an industry as old and as large as this must still adapt and quickly. Infrastructure and Safety When cars first began to…

First off Chevy is better than Ford because Chevy has better motors and they get better gas mileage. The Chevy Camaros have a LS1 in them with a 350 V8 in them. Some Camaros only have a V6 engine, which isn’t as fast as the V8, but it will get you where you need to go when you need to get there. The Ford Mustang has a 302 in it which is smaller than a Camaros motor. The Chevy motors can run more miles than a Ford motor could ever think about going. The 5.7 350 is a great motor for Chevy…

Throughout my life I have had to deal with some pretty scary things. As a child, and even now, these things take a huge toll on how I deal with other things.

The day started of fairly normal. My friend had just got her license and she offered to take me to Washington, Missouri to go shopping and just have a fun day…

In Bureaucracy, James Wilson examines government agencies in comparison to the private sector. The portion we read is centered around both the individual (operator) and the organization as a whole. The idea that bureaucracies are inefficient based solely on red tape is discredited with this piece. There is no simple solution to improving the bureaucracy. Finally, Wilson demonstrates that numerous causes contribute to bureaucratic inefficiency. Wilson’s discussion begins with the conditions that…

grandparents they were mine and Alexa’s. Also we wanted to let my mom know in person what had happened and how everyone was alright. Luckily all Kendall walked away from that crash was a huge bruise on his forehead from the hard impact from the white airbags. What had happened in the crash was that the car in front of my brothers car stopped really quick in front of him and he the brakes didn't work fast enough because the car on front was too close. Maybe Kendall could have paid attention…
