The National Football League has had its number of lockouts, the most recent and historically longest being in 2011. It lasted 132 days until an agreement was made between the players and owners. There are many aspects involved in reaching their agreement, however at the end of the day it comes down to money, $9 billion dollars annually to be exact. Back in 2006 the current agreement was set to expire but was extended by both the players and owners. In 2008 owners chose to opt out of the…

If I were asked to determine what Broadway show best represents my life, I would reply simply, Rent. Loosely adapted, my role would be to portray main character Roger Davis . I say this because Rodger and I are similar in the way that we both have a hard time coming up with new and original content. While Rogers issue revolves around his music, my issue is with essays. Ironically, we both know new material is necessary for our occupations, but due to certain circumstances we are both unable to…

The authors of Getting to the Yes, Roger Fisher and William Ury, give directions on how to embark on a negotiation with the four parts of principled negotiation which are separate the people from the problem, focus on interests, not positions, generate options for mutual gain, and insist on using objective criteria. The authors created these four parts of…

“High Hopes” by the iconic band Pink Floyd was released in 1994 and remains a huge fan favorite of many classic rock listeners. David Gilmour is the singer and song- writer for Pink Floyd and has had a very successful music career. Like most of Pink Floyd’s songs, the rhythm of “High Hopes” is very slow and calming but conveys some of life’s harsh truths. This powerful song illustrates society’s unrelenting quest to pursue the perfect life that God intended but hampered by the uncontrollable…

To be a hero, supernatural powers are not required. Television falsifies unrealistic power and strength. A human being or even an animal can be a hero. If someone were to do a good deed, that significant person would be the hero of the day towards the help. For example, if a woman donates some food, a blanket, and new clothing along with a pair of sneakers to a homeless man, she would be the hero in the man 's eyes. The woman has surely saved him and given him relief from his suffering. With…

My Northern Michigan Adventure Every year my family and I go up to our favorite place, Rogers City Michigan. Rogers City is a small town at the edge of Michigan right on the water. It is a place to relax and unwind for a while. The small city offers quaint shops, delicious places to eat and friendly people. We stay right on the shores of Lake Huron just outside of Rogers city. Where the waves crash and the sand beckons you to come frolic in the sun. The days leading up to the trip are almost on…

This shows the audience what…

The issue I will discuss is spies by Lewis H. Lapham. My whole life I’ve wondered if there are people who live in the shadows that gather information on our country’s enemies and even spy on the average citizen. I think every person should be concerned with being spied on it’s an invasion of privacy and breaks the rights we have as humans. It bothers me that there is a group of people that knows everything yet we only get told what they want us to know. The two main articles I will discuss are…
