Halo: Combat Evolved

Halo: Combat Evolved is the first video game I ever played. It sparked in me not only a love of video games, but also an interest in computers. That was a decade ago. Today that little spark has grown into a raging fire of passion for computers and new technology. Whenever there are new technological advances, you can be sure I know about them. Whether it’s new hardware, like the Xbox One, or new software such as Windows 10. I decided long ago that whatever career I pursued had to involve computers. As college crept closer and closer, so did the pressure to choose a major. I began extensively searching careers in computers last year. I wanted to find a career that would enable me to: make a real contribution to society, create something new and innovative that would make people’s lives easier, and still involve computers. From my research, I discovered that software engineering was the right career for me, as it allowed for me to accomplish all three of my goals. I then researched the education I would need to be a software engineer. After I graduate from Kress High School, I plan to attend Texas Tech University and get a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science. I also hope to go to graduate…

In the disaster, most of the SPARTAN-IIs were killed. Two escaped aboard the UNSC Pillar of Autumn, one of whom was place in cry stasis aboard the ship after sustaining life-threatening injuries during the battle. The Pillar of Autumn soon arrived at Halo Installation 04, which John-117 would later destroy the Flood and stop it from spreading to the rest of the halos rings. Following the Battle of 04, the survivors returned to Reach and could rendezvous with the remaining Spartans. The survivors…

Kelly scooted around the boulder, making sure her head was below than the ridge. As she peered around the edge of the colossal boulder and was quickly met with a spray of blue-white plasma. The Spartan Rabbit moved back behind the boulder and swore under her breath. With a shake of her head, she informed her team that there was trouble ahead. The rest of Blue Team was hidden in the forest about 50 meters from the female Spartan. The Master Chief was crouched behind a large bush and noted…

The lab case analysis introduces a variety of organizational behaviors and their effects on an individual, a group, and consequentially-the organization. In this case, Wally Wingnut’s behavior-after the arrival of Gabe Benson- gives rise to individual issues such as self-esteem, efficacy, locus of control, and many more. The Meson lab scenario also touches perception problems such as the fundamental attribution error, halo effect, stereotyping, that in one way or the other reduce organizational…

The main idea of this theory is that we capture a person 's behaviour and judge the cause of which is an internal one or an external one to see if it is under the control of the person or the result of the situation. One more interesting point is the halo effect which indicates that we only judge a person by a prominent feature or character of him—we will think low of a person than he should be by a negative behavior and vice versa. In the perceptual processing, far more famous and an…

During our revolution, we were only farmers who had muskets and pitch forks. Through the help of allies we were able to beat the British and claim our victory and independence. There were many other wars that would happen before us, the U.S. would become the military power house of the world. After WWII in 1939. Then the US decided it was their job to be the police…

Should citizens today be willing to fight for their country? The United States is a country that had to join together to fight for its freedom, and that is what makes the U.S. such a great country. Their countries heritage is where most of the patriotism among citizens comes from. The United States had to fight in a war with Britain in order to win their independence. In this war there was a draft, which means that every person who was in a certain age group had to enlist in the army and defend…

The Hunger Games represents a dystopian society where there is an annual televised event where twenty-four children fight to the death until only one remains. I could only imagined being in the crowd of children on selection day where you do not know whose name could be called next, whether it be your own name to be called or a member of your friends and family it would be devastating knowing that their chance for survival is very limited.
