According to the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy, in 2011 there were approximately 562,000 pregnancies among women under the age of 20 (2016). In an attempt to determine the predictors of teenage pregnancy, there were many conceptual variables to look at. These variables include delinquency, psychological factors, and aggression. Delinquency can be defined as “crimes or other morally wrong acts, illegal or immoral behavior especially by young people” (“delinquency”,…

was harassing the religious refugees” (Siebold). A Puritan who was instrumental in getting the puritan movement started, William Bradford, decided that the puritans need a new beginning and he thought the best place for this would be the New World. The Puritans then headed back to England in order to get the permissions necessary to head over to the New World. Bradford persuaded the King to give them legal permission (Siebold). The Puritan’s journey towards the new world had just…

of a colony. There was also corruption in the colony, “As for our hogs, hens, goats, sheep, horses, and what lived, our commanders, officers, and savages daily consumed them” (2A1). William Bradford, the leader of Plymouth, was more devoted to ensuring the prosperity of his colony. In his accounts, Bradford described the hardships of living in Massachusetts, but he was determined to make it work, “It was answered that all great and honorable actions are accompanied with great difficulties, and…

The organization I am going to initiate is named Mini Music Moments. This organization will be a summer camp for entering 1st-5th grade children who want to gain knowledge about voice and performance. The cost to attend will be free for the children. I designed this program for children who do not have the financial means to attend voice lessons; however, any child can attend. I am confident this will be beneficial for numerous children. The first step in initiating my organization is to…

and gunners periscopes were soon added (Bradford, George R. Allied). The American M4 had superior navigation systems, had significantly more room inside, but it was 4 tons heavier, had a narrower track base, had a higher center of gravity, and had inferior mobility compared to the Soviet T-34 (Loza). Americas final version of the Sherman, the M4A3E8, was referred to as the “Easy 8”. It mounted the 76 mm gun and was the most powerful Sherman of the war (Bradford, George R.…

removed. A trusting public will be forthright in its dealings with police eager to provide the community with effective support. The large, impersonal institution is transformed in terms of public perception into an extension of the public itself (Bradford & Jackson, 246). Where the public is able to communicate instantaneously with respect to any community occurrence, a trusting, pro-police constituency is more likely to cooperate with police initiatives, than warn transgressors that the police…

Because of his offensive behavior towards the poor people, Bradford believed that providence, once again delivered justice. “But it pleased God before they came half seas over, to smite this young man with a grievous disease, of which he died in a desperate manner” (pg. 131). Several times throughout the story Bradford describes perilous circumstances in which God saw fit to deliver them out of. My opinion is that the Puritans understood…

Since Elizabeth is of a higher social class than Anna, she bosses her around and treats her badly. She treats Anna poorly when the novel says, “I turned suddenly, slopping milk from my bucket as I did so. Elizabeth Bradford scowled as a droplet landed on the aubergine hem of her gown. ‘Clumsy!’ she hissed. And so I remembered her much as I had last seen her more than one year earlier; sour-faced and spoiled” (12). Along with treating people badly and getting away with…

horrifying year and William Bradford would become governor in 1621. The written document is now known as the Mayflower Compact. Eventually, the Pilgrims found Indian houses in the village of Patuxet belonging to the Wampanoag tribe that had been abandoned and they resolved to pay them if they returned. The winter months would be filled with hardships and an astonishing number of the 73 men and 29 females – 50% perished. This Plymouth Rock area would become their settlement. Bradford appears to…

The Amazon Rainforest is currently transforming from a wonderful forest with multiple species and habitats, into the next lifeless desert, due to deforestation. Deforestation is the process of clearing trees from a large area. This process is not only ruining the world, but for humans and animals too. Nearly half of the world's forests have been destroyed, and even more are being cut down at greater rates each year. The rapid deforestation of the Amazon Rainforest over the past 50 years is a…
