In the book Divided We Fall Daniel Wright had to deal with things most 17 year olds don’t want to deal with. He joined the Idaho National Guard so that he can be like his father and provided for his country like his father did. When Boise, Idaho was going crazy with riots the Idaho guardsmen had to go stand on the front lines of the riot to try to stop it. They were trying to do everything in their power to stop what was happening when something terrible happened. Many of the protesters were…
“Sometimes good comes through adversity” (Awasa). After viewing and researching several articles and pictures on densho.org, I gathered some pieces of knowledge about the Japanese Americans that resided in the Minidoka Internment Camp in southern Idaho. The internment camp residents I believe faced treatment there that was not justified for their situations. Additionally, the Japanese Americans there, especially the younger people, I argue, had a positive attitude throughout, like Ruth Awasa.…
Here’s the sort of thing that you might expect to see on the reboot of “The X-Files.” Thousands of snowballs spontaneously form, without any human hands to help, and then roll together like a ghostly invasion force through a field in Idaho. But as agent Mulder probably would explain to us, all those snowballs actually are a natural, albeit extremely rare, phenomenon known as snow rollers.As the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s website explains, snow rollers form when an unusual…
For a CAS to operate most effectively it must operate in a space where creativity is not stifled by an over exercised level of control yet the system is not allowed to destructure and descend into chaos (Aydinoglu, 2010; Kim & Mackey, 2014; Marchi et al., 2014; Wang et al., 2015).

In the video “Private Idaho”, the misunderstanding of bias was that the town of Coeur d’Alene is a racist town trying to escape diversity. The families who move to this town are trying to preserve the American culture and share a conservative lifestyle. Biasness in race is a…

the digital activities of their employees. In the first case, First Alert Medical Response (First Alert) ambulance service exercised those rights when they fired Betty Nelson over social media postings (Holley, Jennings, & Wolters, 2012). A recent Idaho Supreme Court decision supports First Alert’s actions. By comparing and contrasting these two cases, the issues of technology and job protection in the contemporary workplace can be prudently considered and a legal case made for reasonable…
Life in camps. Imagine people dying in camps. Not camps that you are thinking of, horrible camps where people suffer, in many ways. From not eating and working non stop. All kinds of people. Where they work really hard until death or automatically go into gas chamber and killed. Concentration camps are horrible places that held lots of innocent people and were killed or worked until death. So as you can tell concentration camps were for the suffering and for death. Nazis built camps: The…
