Drill

What would you do if you found out that your friends had committed a murder? A murder that may have jokingly been your idea. Brady, a 13 year old boy who lived on the Chesapeake Bay and his friends J.T. and Digger are the main characters in the book “Red Kayak”. Although Brady, Digger, and J.T. weren’t happy when the DiAngelos family bought the farm next door where they used to hang out, Brady never imagined his idea of a practical joke would go so far. Once he confronted his friends with…

the same article written by Caplan and Igel, “I’m a firm believer that there’s no way that a six-year-old should have a helmet on and learn a tackling drill....They can play flag football. And with flag football you can get all the techniques.” This quote explains that there is a way to lessen brain injuries by using different technique and drills to build skills in football. At a young age, children should protect their brains with alternative ways of learning proper technique because the brain…

when I was finished I was proud I was able to keep running. Last year when I signed up for cross country I wasn’t very good at running because I didn’t really run in elementary school. When the first week of cross country came and we did a bunch of drills, I felt like I was going to die.…

afterwards. The soil quality is degraded, and rich farming land becomes poor, putting farmers at a disadvantage. Habitats are lost, water ways contaminated, air polluted. Another fossil fuel is oil, and it is mined through a drill. Often in the ocean, massive rigs are manufactured to drill and syphon out the fuels. This can result in leaks, which poison the oceans every year. In 2010, the worst oil spill in history killed thousands of marine birds, mammals, fish, crustaceans and plant life. The…

soared as a result. This has caused the water table, or the depth at which water is found below the surface, to plummet as water is pumped from the ground faster than the aquifers can rejuvenate. Once farmers needed only to drill 500 feet deep to reach water, now they have to drill down at least 1,000 feet. Scientists have also discovered that the more water is taken out from Central Valley, the more the land begins to sink- the San Joaquin Valley in particular…

things in war which aren’t expected. In Stephen Crane’s Poem “War is Kind” he uses irony in the title and throughout the poem. Crane uses irony by saying the “Little souls who thirst for fight,/These men were born to drill and die”. By saying that these little souls were meant to drill and die contradicts the real meaning that these young men are going into war for. In the poem “ The Yellow Birds” by Kevin Powers, he says “ let’s make it as painless as possible because you are a coward and,…

Osage Nation’s Black Gold The Petroleum industry burst at the seams across the United States’ rich petroleum deposits throughout the 19th century. In the wake of the rush for the black liquid gold, boomtowns grew overnight and the landscape was instantaneously changed. Yet, Osage Nation stood apart from the rest of the Oklahoma in the development of the expansive oil fields throughout the state. Under the tradition of the common laws adopted by the British the land right was under private…

This drill is quite easy, but involves an enormous amount of running. Coach will strike a softball with his bat and it is the player's task to locate the ball and determine whether or not to run. My feet are planted on first base and coach hits a ball to right…
