Hurdling

Life in the Roaring Twenties was not only the peak of an artistic and social movement, it was a time, even after fighting in World War I, that Americans had exceptionally well financial stability. People were going throughout the decade buying stock from the Stock Market and buying luxury items for the enjoyment of themselves and their family. The luxury life suddenly came to a screeching halt when the Stock Market crashed in late 1929, sparking a depression. Roosevelt put several acts into…

For all my life, I have had a fascination with the human body and how it works. It truly is incredible how our bodies function on a day to day basis. What truly amazes me is when we push our bodies to its limits playing a sport. Sports are a huge deal in today's society-we are taught at very young ages to push and excel at your sport. Even just the sense of belonging you feel with a team involves health. You need a healthy mind and body in sports. From personal experience- once your sport is in…

school ending later as well. The students would not be able to go to extracurriculars as long as they do. Sports like track and tennis would be hard to participate in during the wintertime when it’s dark. For example, children may not see a baseball hurdling towards them in the inky black night. This would cause lots of unnecessary injuries and harm. Who would want injured kids? Many kids would have to do homework and eat dinner afterwards so that would make them sleep even later than before.…

The air was crisp and cool. The sky was a deep shade of purple that signaled night was setting in the sky. There was no illumination of this land other than the shimmering moon and the warm, eerie glow from the apartment buildings scattered among the fields. In the fields themselves, insects buzzed and chirped, hidden deep within the underbrush. In the soil, prairie dogs scrambled fervently, navigating their tunnels in search of a nighttime meal. On the edge of the fields, a deserted path lay…

Ezekiel Elliott, a natural athlete born in an athletic family, but now could be considered the best running back in the NFL, leading the NFL in most yards per carry after contact. Thanks to his offensive line, Zeke is just pure talent on the football field, if you ask any running back, fullback, quarterback, or anybody behind the offensive line before a play, they would tell you that the play would not ever succeed without those lineman protecting them. Zeke admits that that statement is true,…

our climate. The combination of these things have a negative effect on the atmosphere and there is little evidence to support the idea that the human race could adapt to rapidly changing temperatures. Scientist have warned us that our activity is hurdling our planet toward the process of extinction. “A review of more than 4,000 scientific papers published between 1991 and 2011 finds that more than 97 percent of them say human actions are changing Earth’s climate.” ("CLIMATE CHANGE") However,…

Finance Corporation (ICFC) in order to provide financing to small and medium companies (3i, 2015). The formation of ICFC was inspired by the Macmillan Committee that was formed to inspect whether the British banking and financial system was helping or hurdling the British trade and industry, realized after the 1929 stock market crash. Identified in the report was the disparity between depositors, who asked for high rate of return on their investments and high liquidity and the industrial…

Orca whales are one of the ocean’s fiercest predators. They are extraordinarily intelligent animals that have captured human curiosity for centuries. They are so extraordinary they have even earned themselves many famed titles, the most popular one being the “killer whale”. However, are these whales the cold-hearted killing machines society and the general mass media deem them to be? Why are these animals painted in such bad light? Before the inevitable and rightful fall of one of the United…

The Quest For Power The Lord of The Flies, written by William Golding, tells the story of young British boys who are stranded on an island in the middle of the ocean. These boys were in a plane escaping from a war scene when their plane came down. The will to survive and get off the island is a leading factor for stress and a key issue. However the quest and assertiveness to be in control and have power drives two boys in particular throughout the story. Power starts off in the form of a conch,…

but remember I’m focusing on sports right now. Look it soccer was the best, I thought I was a boss at it. Really looking back I was truly telling myself a lie, I sucked. It was fun but, I sucked. One time I tried going out field and the ball came hurdling towards me and bam next thing I knew I was on the grass passed out. Now I remember getting a goal and honestly I think that was my only goal, just kidding I wasn’t that bad. Anyways I played four seasons then I stopped at…
