Tumbling Into the Olympics There are over 4.5 million registered cheerleaders across the world. (“History of Cheerleading”) I was one of those cheerleaders for the last six years. The hard work and dedication it takes to withstand the toll of this sport requires a determined spirit and a withstanding soul. Cheerleading has continued to show its extreme popularity among young women and men not only in the United States, but also across the world with a constantly growing number of countries that…

Although some of the rules should be modified or removed because it places a disadvantage for the players, it furtively fines players, and it is changing the tradition of the sport, others believe that the NFL is just trying to prevent their players from concussions and even possibly developing Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE). “Heads In The Game” claims, from high school to the pros, football accounts for more than half of the 300,000 sport related concussions that occur every year in the…

Sheriff Higgins glanced over his shoulder and mopped his face with the soaked handkerchief. The crime scene vans arrived minutes before the cadaver dogs. Robert wasn’t sure which grated on his nerves worse, the whining from the hound, or the camera flashes that exploded at random. He gritted his teeth at the thought of his sleepy town becoming a circus. Still, it was better for him to hand over jurisdiction without protest, and he knew it. It was the only chance Hamilton had of returning to some…

With the exception of the few skirmishes in Latin America, the United States of America’s foreign policy during the early 20th century was monotonously consistent. Since there was, at the time, no pressing need for a bolstered military, when presented with the outbreak of World War I the involuntary reaction of the U.S. government was to plead neutrality. However, as the war progressed, opportunistic companies began to invest in manufacturing war goods both prior to, and during, the U.S.…

He made the restrictions and constraints of the less-fortunate known and strived to get free speech and education for all. During his marriage to Jane Colt, he taught her Latin and other subjects until her untimely death in 1511. He also believed his daughters should be educated as equally as his son. In his book, Utopia, he once stated, “Extreme justice is an extreme injury: for we ought not to approve…

After watching the whole first season of F is for Family, I observed how it portrayed race, ethnicity, and class. The show has some interesting ways of how it portrays these races, ethnicity, and class. The course terms I used from chapter 9 were race, dominant ethnic group, minority groups, prejudice, segregated, and stereotypes. Course terms I used from chapter 10 were sex, gender, masculinity, femininity, sexism, and feminism. I concluded that this sitcom somewhat accurately portrays how…

Luckily for them, John Grady and Rawlins are very hard workers and ended up fitting in well at the hacienda. John Grady even was able to begin to ‘break’ the new horses because they noticed the talent he had. The boys ‘breaking’ the new 3-year-old colts was a symbol for their journey as well. They were making it so the horses were ridable and workable and in turn I think that was making the boys more mature and possibly ‘breaking’ them of their wilder…

In recent years, gun control has been one of the most controversial and debated subjects around. My stance is that heavy gun control laws do more harm than good. Now, today more than ever it seems impossible to pick up a newspaper or turn on the TV without seeing some tragic event being reported by the media in relation to gun violence. Unfortunately, to grab as much viewership as possible, facts are often skewed or ignored, and gun control is blamed. Contrary to what the media would have you…
