Hail Mary pass

fail the course and repeat it to absolutely understand the basic foundation of that class. With regards to this, Mary Sherry a adult literacy educator/writer also has the same…

influences our identity, and about how racial passing still occurs today really spoke to me and allowed me to see more how we live in an ever changing world. She began the talk by discussing racial passing and what it is. How people of color would pass as white individuals in the past to have better opportunities in life. She then went on to discuss how she initially became interested in passing, and the story about how her cousin passed as a white woman for the entirety of her life.…

For this plan I was given the challenge of finding a way to help the actors remember the order of the play and their entrance and exits. I wanted to push the actors to use the space and not have to use language to communicate. The challenge here was to create a plan that would be sustaining and challenging but not restricting to the Deaf actors by taking their language away from them. The intention of the workshop was to slowly over stimulate the actors so that they would start to multitask. By…

Everyone in the world will experience the subject of death at some point their lives. The common wishes in regards to this subject are to die a peaceful death, surrounded by loved ones, with no suffering. A practice that would allow terminally ill patients to have this wish granted is the practice of physician-assisted suicide. Physician-assisted suicide, or PAS, is an action in which a physician provides a terminally ill patient with the means to end his or her own life. Most people want to be…

their cellular devices, while the other fourth spent the remaining of time slowly drooling on the assignment. The whole time all I could think about was how I was going to pass a test that I had taken two years ago. On top of all my thoughts, I was sure that class was not going to help me to meet the requirements needed to pass the exam. I did not want that class to prevent me from graduating, so I took matters in to my own…

The idea that parents are to blame for our faults and failings is one that does not sit well with many, but in Philip Larkin’s “This Be the Verse,” he goes on to declare just that. From victim to offender, people pass down their faults and wrongdoings from one generation to the next. Human nature will never change, and misery will forever thrive. Not one generation can be blamed for the faults they have, yet each generation passes down their faults and wrongdoings to the next.This means…

Ballot questions offer the state a unique way of making the public vote laws for their legislation. An important aspect to how laws are voted on is through ballot questions. Ballot questions are a suggestion for a type of law that the people vote on. Many people of the state do not know how these ballot questions get onto the ballot. This year there were four questions on the ballot. Question 3 was about how animals should have more freedom while they are in their cages. Question 3 was…

For about the past week now, former NBA star Lamar Odom has been in the news. Odom was hospitalized after being found unconscious in what was said to be a brothel. For those of you out there who are confused on what a brothel is like I was, it’s simply a house where men can visit prostitutes. The reason I point this out is because despite the fact there is a young man fighting for his life, the media still find ways to paint a picture for their audience to gain exposure. Where he was found or…

Firefighters-from career veterans with twenty or more years, to volunteers with only a few months under their belts-go through intense, rigorous, and extremely important training. What could happen if firefighters just did the minimum amount of training required and that was all they trained? THE DENVER DRILL On 28 September 1992, in Denver Colorado, a three-alarm fire broke out. During attempts to locate and rescue survivors, Mark Langvardt, a 16-year veteran firefighter, was separated from…

complicated, but many are simple and would significantly improve level of play. One simple change that would significantly improve quality of play is changing the pass-interference rule. Pass interference is is a foul that occurs when a player interferes with an eligible receiver's ability to make a fair attempt to catch a forward pass. The penalty is overcalled, abused by teams and has negatively influenced the outcomes of many games. This year has been especially bad. Teams have gradually…
