In the commentary Shameful Scapegoating of the Mentally Ill Tom Dart writes about the problems he sees in America concerning mass shootings, and who is blamed for them. Tom points out that America has a bad habit of jumping onto bandwagons, and a big one right now is blaming the mentally ill for mass shootings. While it is by all means true that a few mental ill people do pose a major threat, the problem is that they do not speak to the majority. Another major problem is that there is no money…

Cherokee Tribes had to be resourceful when making tools they used, what the earth provided such as wood, stone, rock and flint. The weapons that the Cherokee tribe used were arrowheads, spears, stone and club weapons which include tomahawks and battle hammers etc. These weapons were used for hunting deer and other types of animals. Some spears were made entirely of hardwood; the points sharpened by hand and then hardened in a fire (Cherokee Nation). Spear points were made in the same way; they…

traditional games played in Belgium include Belgian Darts, Corsage, and Rolle Bolle. Belgian Darts: Belgian Darts or Darts was a more modern version of Vogelpik which is the game where two men, side-by-side, hold four, stuffed-birds, each having a needle on the end. Then they throw it towards a board mounted on the wall. However, the difference is that instead of throwing stuffed birds, the competitors through feathered darts. The objective of Belgian Darts is to accumulate the most points…

sleep. Sydney describes a scenario of metaphorical “fierce darts” being thrown at Astrophel by Despair (6). This invokes a sense of pain in the reader, as well as visual, and kinetic imagery. Sydney appeals to multiple senses in this instance to make the feeling of darts exaggerated, and provides a tone of pain and sorrow. This tone is set for the reader because the reader experiences the pain of one’s problems through the feeling of darts, and experiences the sorrow that goes along with one’s…

setbacks. This helped to control for potential confounding variables as research has shown imagery ability influences the effectiveness of imagery (Gregg, Hall, McGowan, & Hall, 2011). Therefore, this may have affected the participants’ self-efficacy and dart-throwing performance along with the independent variable, which would threaten the internal validity of the experiment. Furthermore, re-administering the screening measure post-intervention will also allow improvements in imagery ability to…

Collection Method We are working to determine the best way to collect and process cups in order to more efficiently work within the interests of our partners. Our current method is quite cumbersome and involves organizing collection cycles with each fraternity each weekend. This not only poses a problem on the front-end, including delays in contacting fraternity members, but also on the back-end as it is difficult for us to collect all the cups in a timely manner with just three people and one…

When a judge releases an offender on their promise to appear at the next court date, the order shows that the judge is serious that the offender is not to contact the victim. If the judge releases the offender without an order in place and the offender in turn hurts or kills the victim would not sit well in the public eyes. Another reason that order is routinely placed into effect is to prevent the victim from having to debate with the court on why they want an order. When a victim requests a…

“Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.” There is much wickedness that dwells throughout the world. We need to constantly have our shield of faith accessible, so we are prepared during the times we get pummeled with the evils of the earth. If we have our personal shield of faith to be with us always we will be protected by the fiery darts of the wicked. In a general conference talk L. Tom Perry speaks of a personal…

According to Blumert, Crum, Ernsting, Volek, Hollander, Haff, and Haff, various studies have been done (including the previous) on how sleep deprivation can effect weightlifting performance, but none of those studies actually modeled a training session that requires performance of a series of high-intensity exercises that are performed for multiple sets and repetitions. For this study, Blumert et al. compared the effects of twenty-four hours of sleep loss on physiological and psychological…

swirling blue vortex beginning to close. He got up and realized that the only way back to Earth was through the vortex that was closing 15 feet away. At the same time, Manny saw the masked people start closing in about 30 feet away, holding blow darts and blowguns. Manny made up his mind in a split second. He…
