Greatest hits

While it sounds so simple, one of the hardest things to do is to hit a baseball. The best baseball players in the world are expected to hit the ball 30% of the time, and they are paid millions of dollars to do so. Baseball has been a passion of mine throughout my life. Since the age of 5, I have been working towards perfecting the skill of hitting. I have practiced hours at a time whether it be by going to the batting cages, hitting off a tee, or facing live pitching, in hopes of improving my…

five lives or one. The trolley problem at hand is about engineering self-driving cars. The scenario is whether the self-driving car will crash into a building and kill the passenger and owner or the car which would only be one person, or to swerve and hit and kill five other random bystanders. Views on what to do vary between various types of people’s beliefs; utilitarian, Kaintains, and myself all have different views on what to do when designing the car on what to do in a trolley problem…

many great accomplishments. The Beatles were a band from 1962 to 1970, they had many successful albums and songs that people still to continue to listen to today. No band has or ever will match the success that the Beatles had. The Beatles were the greatest band of the sixties and still continue that legacy today. The four Beatles we know and love today weren’t the original members though. In 1957 John Lennon was performing with an amater group called the Quarrymen. He met Paul McCartney at…

From the crack of the bat to the smack of the glove and the dirty basebal pants. This game is what I love . The moment i first played i've been “ as gifted.” I'm a 5 to a player, I have a good arm, great glove, some speed, i can hit, and i can hit for power. My dream is to be the best baseball player ever. Baseball is a long vigorous path that many attempt but never will reach the show. First i must make the Freshman team, or even better JV or Varsity. From high school you have two choices…

He was a driving force behind three World Series champions. Still remembered for bowling over AL catcher Ray Fosse to score…

When he sings, he hits some very impressive notes in the upper register. Though the fate of Guns ‘N’ Roses is always up in the air (they are planning to reunite at Coachella 2016), Rose has continually raged on as one of the most legendary hard rock bands. Number Two: Joan…
