Fairfax County

was already planning on putting in motion; for the County Commission, I just didn't have the same vernacular as the reading to express it. While government isn't exactly the same as the corporate system, the county commission in West Virginia is pretty close. That is because the county commission is the administrators for the rest of the county government. They are in charge of the budget, regulations,…

body, Crestwood School District, up to city Government, County Government, State Government, and finally, the Federal Government. Of these systems, it would be the most logical and much easier, to get rid of Wayne County and let every city, it governs, to take care of itself. Wayne County has the least political effect on the economy, and for this…

Downtown Kansas City. It is part of Johnson County which is a fairly large county. The county itself is drastically different from the KC Metro area because it is known to be a very affluent area, especially the south half of Johnson county. Overland Park itself is one of the highest priced living areas. I chose this location one, because I live here in Overland Park, and two, because I was interested to see what resources are available to this county considering the average income and home…

This book report is based on the 189 page, fictional biography, named “George Washington and the Birth of Our Nation”. The book is written by Milton Meltzer and published by Franklin Watts in 1986. This book is primarily about the evolving life of George Washington and how the atmosphere surrounding George had an effect upon him. In my opinion, the way Milton portrays George’s life gives the reader a breathtaking view into the life of one of America’s most legendary historical figures with…

On April 17, 2015, a protest group, which included Eric Sheppard, walked on the American Flag in the front of Odum Library at Valdosta State University. This was in an effort to protest racism in our country. Shortly after, a local veteran, Michelle Manhart, was detained for taking the flag from the protest group in what was her attempt to be able to dispose of the ripped flag properly. She was not charged but was banned from VSU in the future (ValdostaDailyTimes). I could not believe what I was…

t 's been a few years since I 've been to Clementon, so having the day off last Wednesday I took a ride up to see the town. In the 1970s I lived in an apartment on Blackwood-Clementon Road in Lindenwold and had a friend who lived on top of the Park Grill. The town had a distinct look, with its older buildings, pool hall, and feed store – something you don 't usually see at the mall. Most of my time there was spent drinking beer in the Park Grill or drinking beer and eating seafood at the Palm…

Introduction Lumpkin County Parks and Rec was an experience I will never forget. As a future educator, it showed me how to treat children and how not to treat them. The program that I attended was only during the summer and was open from seven in the morning to six in the afternoon. There were around three to four college-aged counselors at a time looking after the children. None of the counselors were 4ducation majors, so they were not learning the different techniques of disciplining and…

I was born in the wrong century; a combination of an imperfect school education and broad parents produced a curious child who dreamed of many different occupations. Growing up in Fayetteville, North Carolina, I’ve seen interests and talents splattered across the entire state. There were Spring Lake Middle School sport coaches who researched different exercises for training players, cross country runners who dabbled in cancer research, and many more occupations. Thus, these people influenced my…
