Greetings! I’m Neon but my close friends call me Ne. Before I get into too much detail, there are some things you should know about me. First of all, I weigh 20 amu; light, I know! I have been around for a while, for about 4.5 billion years, but no one knew of my existence because people don’t notice me; it’s so sad! Now into my life story. When a nebula helped form planet Earth, my friends and I were born. However, it took a long time, smart people and a lot of work to get us all free from…

Ariens are active, brave and frank. They possess an abundence of energy which renders them aggressive in all sorts of enterprises. Constantly on the go they are the pioneering go-getters of the Zodiac. It is the present challenge that counts not what happened yesterday or what the future may bring. They’re enthusiasm is contagious. While their outspokeness is sometimes hard to take it is ultimately accepted by friends and family who recognise that such frankness stems from the Rams honest…

connect shared groups, but in Landreth’s film, Larkin is the form of memory the ties and binds people together. Viewers see parts of Larkins past and relationships with former girlfriend Felicity, and his friend Derek as they add their own experiences. “Ryan” is a film about the shift between objective reality and the analysis of human thought in an emotional and psychological study. Larkin and his works, such as Walking (1969) and Street Musique (1972) become the link to the past that unifies…

Through the course of this assignment transcribing and interpreting Dorothy’s diary, there was a great amount of information to be gleaned about her life. While some aspects of Dorothy’s life, such as specific details about herself, are lacking, she provides plenty of evidence from which to draw conclusions about her employment, location, age, activities she does for fun, how she travels around, and the people she teaches and with which she works, shops, and goes out. To begin, it is clear…

If you’ve ever tried to spin a ruler like a pen, you’d know it’s not the most ideal of circumstances. In fact, any member of the Universal Pen Spinning Board would scoff at the idea. However, I like the prospect of spinning a ruler. It’s funny in the strangest of ways: it’s so ridiculous that you can’t help but laugh at it. As the sarcastic one of my friends, one thing in which I have always believed is the power of humor, especially that of sudden or ridiculous punchlines. My preference for…

Yet there is much scholarly debate as to whether sport today continues to uphold the values of hegemonic masculinity or actually contributes to breaking down the hegemonic aspects of masculinity. Juxtaposing the media portrayals of Nolan Ryan and Russell Westbrook, as well as examining the views of a men’s college soccer team in the Northeast, provides strong evidence that hegemonic masculinity, although it has aspects that maintain a significant presence in society, is being challenged…

The Sunday School Easter program was about to begin at Bethesda Baptist Church in Washington, D.C. For my last time speaking in front of the congregation before leaving for Tennessee State University (TSU), I was charged with introducing the speaker of the program. As I stood in front of hundreds of people to recite the introduction that I wrote, I was confident and thoughts of how far I had come since giving my life to Christ ran thru my mind. My spiritual journey began when I was about 5…

The corner of Broad and Sansom will always have a special place in my heart. In my travels around the city of Philadelphia, it is one of the few places that can smack me in the face with déjà vu. Whenever I walk by and look up at the windows above I still see the “David Wright shot a 72 on Wednesday” sign (this became a battle cry for me whenever the Phillies played the Mets, regardless of whether or not Wright was in the lineup). That was the prime location I was able to snag on October 31,…

The main question focused on while doing this experiment was, “How many times does the ball bounce before coming to a rest? “ There were four groups and each one had a different ball in size to get a variety in the data. Each group did their own data analysis depending on the number of the bounces their ball did. Every group was expected to release the ball from their hands and count the number of bounces before coming to a stop which was then repeated 10 times. Once every group completed their…
