When Demonstrating Selfless Giving Makes a Difference Who orders pizza at church? Apparently more people than you might think, since the Domino's driver did not seem very surprised that she was showing up to the Sycamore Creek Church in Pickerington, Ohio, with a hot pie.

This hot delivery was scheduled during Holy Spirit prime time, right in the middle of Sunday worship.…

Growing up, my parents would both work afternoon jobs, which meant a home cooked meal was rare in my home. I believe this contributed to me always going out to eat. I loved Italian food, but specifically I loved pizza. There are two restaurants in particular that i always go to; these are Pizza Patron, and Rome's Pizza. I think Rome's Pizza is better because of the quality, service, and sophisticated atmosphere. First off, Rome's Pizza is more expensive. This is due to the fresh, non-frozen…

Mary McCarthy’s pretty loyal to Vasari’s portrayal of Paolo Uccello. She describes him as a solitary character incredibly focused on work; to the point that he would just shut himself away to deal with his long term perspective project. Vasari speaks similarly of Uccello, even arguing that Uccello spentso much time on his project that he “nothing but waste his time, exhaust his powers, fill his mind with difficulties” McCarthy often quotes Vasari when describing the life of Uccello. And focuses…

Anthony Di Renzo wrote a scholarly article about a personal experience with Italian – American food. Jane Dixon composed a research database reflecting on the distribution and consumption of chicken in Australia. Comparing these two articles has similarities and differences.

Some cultural practices that they do in Italy, is that their most popular sport is “football” or soccer. Although my family is a Italian family, we don’t always…

Jacob Hosp Mrs. Kahler InRoads 9 23 April 2018 Italian Unification The Italian Unification was a time during the 1800’s when Italy was not one. During this time Italy was a mixture of many different states who were being ruled by the Austrian Empire. Throughout many years the people living there began to not like how it was ran and some needed to begin to take the risk and step up so that the rest of the people could have the nationalism that they were striving to have.

Jersey Shore was a popular TV show on MTV between 2009 and 2012 about “Guidos”, or Americans of Italian descent in their twenties who rented a house together on the Jersey Shore, which was aimed at teenagers and people under thirty. Jersey Shore is affecting our culture in a negative way because the majority of people that watched it might have thought differently about Italians and think that’s all that they do. At one point, Jersey Shore became one of the most watched TV shows and I think it…

For instance, ‘[he] forged the the paramilitary Fascist Movement during 1919-1921” (Benito Mussolini). Before Hitler had made Benito force the Fascist Party to be the largest party in the Italian government, Benito definitely came up with it himself.
