Doug

often means children are left to take on greater self-reliance. Children may be responsible for keeping the house picked up, preparing their own meals and caring for their younger brothers and sisters. On June 5th 2017, just a few months ago, Governor Doug Ducey declared opioid overdoses as a public health crisis. Tucson’s over dosing deaths have raised 74% since 2012, and only 32 of those deaths were from opiates purchased on the black market laced with synthetic ingredients. However, the…

“Cultural genocide”, that is exactly what happened when the white man colonized the Indian. To the outsider, Canada appears to be a ‘perfect’ country. From our free healthcare to our need to profusely apologize for bumping into inanimate objects, we are a nation envied by many. Our greatest strength lies in our diversity and multiculturalism. In our current Prime Minister’s words “diversity is at the very heart of Canada. It is who we are and what we do.” However, there is a part of our history…

Culture, a word that can be interpreted differently for everyone. To me it means, how you identify yourself by your beliefs, attitudes, relationships, anything that affects you, and how they have affected your life and what you take away from them. Currently everyone in my family is unaware of our cultural ties to other countries, so I personally identify my culture with American culture and with the things that affects my life. I have a complicated life that has shaped me into who I am today…

with permission, wrote messages for the homecoming game on the white boards in many classrooms. I bothered the hell out of my teammates to help me promote the homecoming game. No one wanted to help but then Doug, a receiver and the team goofball, came out and helped with the pep rallies. Doug was always causing trouble even back in middle school. I remember the many times I had to take him down to the principal’s office. But this time he didn’t mess around and got the pep rallies so loud that…

The dictionary meaning of Hesitation is “a delay due to uncertainty of mind or fear.” Hesitation and police officers are directly related. In this line of work hesitation could mean life or death. Some people are arguing about should the officers hesitate or should not hesitate. The police officers can save innocent life if he/she hesitate.

One of the guests staying at Sunset Towers was Turtle and her family, who were upgrading from their old home. Barney knew about all the heirs old homes and how much they cost on upkeep before they came to Sunset Towers. On Halloween, Otis Amber, Doug Hoo, and Sandy McSouthers, (all heirs of Sam Westing) dare Turtle to go into the Westing manor and for every minute she remains in the house, she will receive two dollars. Turtle…

There is one planet that is inhabitable, so as humans we should do everything in our power to make the Earth sustainable. As many think recycling promises a brighter future for our planet, they are quite frankly being deceived. We are more likely to drive ourselves into the ground by funding recycling than to just leave the garbage to, quite literally, rot in its own filth. To some people recycling is just a lost cause, but to many others’ it has wedged its way into becoming a part of his or her…

so many climbers got stuck was because there was bottlenecking on the mountain while people waited to set up ropes. If Woodall had helped set up the ropes, maybe less people wouldn’t have been stuck up on the mountain, and the deaths of Rob Hall and Doug Hansen would’ve been prevented in my opinion, they got stuck in the storm because they were so far behind the turnaround time due…

Is the Senate simply a waste of institutional space? Or is it an opportunity to make a change that is long overdue? An expense scandal involving several senators in December of 2012 sparked a political debate with regards to the future of the Senate of Canada. Most will agree that the Senate is a thoroughly flawed institution, however the pros and cons of each proposition should be weighed before any action is taken. After presenting each of the proposed options regarding what decision is to be…

Social activism is an act that has been around for decades. It is mostly used to stress the issues in society that the government is hesitant to fix or talk about. In Malcolm Gladwell’s excerpt, Small Change, gladwell elaborates on his evidence that social media was not around during the civil rights era and the impact social media has on social activist today. While I agree with Gladwell’s claim that social media was not needed for social activism in the past, I in-part believe that social…
