In Flanders Fields

We as a society need to encourage more young girls and women to take an interest in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). In 2009, 48% of the United States workforce was comprised of women while 52% comprised of men (Kimmel et al, 2012). While the slight deviation in percentage seems small, when STEM field jobs were looked at in particular, it was realized that that 76% of the STEM jobs are held be men while women only held on to 24% (Szelényi et al, 2013). In…

By the end of September 26th I was exhausted. That was the day I did my semester project for civics class. I volunteered to staff the Kickfest soccer tournament that is held annually at the middle school. My day included field managing, working the concessions and even refereeing games. I volunteered with my friends Lindsay and Julia. We enjoyed the experience and plan on doing it again next year. We thought this was a really good way to help out a program that is on a budget and can't hire…

more and more fields, until one day, he was the owner of every farm in the village. His neighbors, friends, and relatives did not know what to do, as the only way to Aongus’ heart was money.

Those who disobeyed his orders were brutally beaten and forced to work in inhumane conditions in Aongus’ fields. For…

The decoration of the entire on the gate was breath. There were different quotes all over the farm. My farm quote…

Athletes are constantly being asked which they prefer: artificial turf or natural grass. They want the ideal playing surface to compete on, which was the logic behind inventing artificial grass, but what people don’t know are the disadvantages that are associated with artificial grass. After researching the downsides to turf, I read about a study that states that seventy-one percent of injuries on turf are traumatic injuries and the other 29% are for overuse injuries. This includes both…

succeeded in whittling the log of choices down to fewer options. The same goes for the possible careers, though the list itself names fewer specific job opportunities than general fields of expertise. In addition to this, I conducted research on each major and career in order to find the requirements for the individual fields. These include age limits, physical requirements, and course requirements. Despite the difficulties,…

main village of Verser I get a nice glimpse of the rice fields that dot this small island. You see, here on the Island of Zanene, rice is their livelihood. To them, rice is their life.

The Queen of Zanene is actually rather proud and boasts about her service of working in the fields. Zanene is a matriarchy. There are 4 main classes in…

The actors did a good job of acting like southerners in the movie, and they didn’t play out of character; However, there are a few goofs in the movie. As Forrest in the scene where he takes apart his gun and reassembles it, Hanks forgets to use his accent for a few seconds. There are also more mistakes in the movie that no one has seemed to notice. If someone was…
