Born Margaret Hilda Roberts on October 13, 1925, Thatcher grew up in Grantham, England (Biography.com Editors). She did not grow up in a wealthy family. Her parents were the owners of a small grocery store, and their family lived on the second floor (Biography.com Editors). She grew up in a lower middle class environment, which influenced her political agenda in the future, letting her realize it was possible to work your way out of lower classes. She was introduced to politics at a rather…

Every time I hear Beau Bridges say: “My father was my teacher. But most importantly he was a great dad.” I ask myself, what makes a great dad? If you look closely, you will notice that all great dads share three qualities: they are active in a child’s life, are positive role models, and encourage discipline. A great dad’s job is to play an active role in his child’s life; they are there for their children no matter what the situation: good, bad, or ugly. They help guide their kids as they grow…

Look at chapter 2“War is a big and sprawling word that brings a lot of human suffering into the conversation, but combat is a different matter. Combat is the smaller game that young men fall in love with, and any solution to the human problem of war will have to take into account the psyches of these young men” (Junger 2011, p. 234). Sebastian Junger, the author of War (2011), was born in Belmont, Massachusetts and grew up to become an award-winning journalist and #1 New York Times Bestselling…

to meet with them as much as needed. Johnson also advocates for students to be undecided in hopes that they can discover a major that fits well with them. “A study found that students who go into college undeclared are more likely to graduate, as well as earn higher GPAs than students going in declared. This is attributed to the findings that being committed to a certain major career path right away does not determine a student’s ability to earn a degree.” Success is not guaranteed if you commit…

composers sought to expand the number of available synthetic scales for composition. In 1907 the Italian composer Ferruccio Busoni (1866–1924) as part of an examination of the tonal system based on what he called “the two Series of Seven,” meaning the major and minor keys in relation to the chromatic scale, attempted to write all the possible heptatonic (seven-tone) scales in his book Sketch of a New Esthetic of Music. Busoni states: That some few have already felt how the interval of the…

set in the key of A major and has a 4/4 meter. Song form consists of an intro, four verse sections, each followed by a refrain, a bridge that follows only the second and third refrains, and an outro. The melody is undoubtedly bluesy, but further innovates on the blues form by adding a flatted III chord into the standard three chord progression of I, IV, V. It emphasizes this flat III chord – this serves to create dissonance and lends an interesting contrast to the main A major chord…

There are millions of people worldwide who either play the guitar, or would like to play the guitar. There are equally as many people claiming to have the "miracle" training course that will have you "playing like the pros" in a week (or some other ridiculous time frame). That's impossible and here's why... What if I told you I had an 18 part video series that will teach you how to do brain surgery in 7 days or less. Would you buy it? Would you trust yourself to perform the surgery on another…

of constellations. The constellations we see in the summer are not the same ones we see in the winter. We never see the same constellation all year long. Unless the constellation is circumpolar. There are only five circumpolar constellations: Ursa Major, Ursa Minor, Draco, Cepheus, and Cassiopeia. These are visible all year long and when trying to find other constellations are great guides. During winter, the summer constellations are in the sky the same time as the Sun, which is why they are…

Pressure was another issue. Coming from a small background, Johnson had all the more reason to need to be successful. He wanted to show the world that a poor boy from a poor background could make it big. He was surrounded by pressure. The main appliance of force was his coach, Charlie Francis. Francis found himself embarrassed as his own country was one to vote for an Olympic game, yet obviously didn’t have enough talent to win any Gold metals. This gave Francis all the more motive for the…
