I like to think of the I-Kuan-Tao Zhong Shu Temple as my second home. I find that the Temple is a magical place, no matter where it is, Taiwan, San Francisco, Honolulu, or Michigan, they all share the same atmosphere. It is a mixture of warmth, love, care, and security. I am always greeted by warm smiles as I enter the Temple, community members will ask me how I have been and how school is going lately. And even though my usual answer to anyone else is simply a “good,” I know that at the Temple,…

that, I do have an inclination towards the communities of the Information Dominance Corps. During my time as a midshipman at the University of Michigan, I had many opportunities to hone my leadership, communication, and decision-making skills. For two years, I was in charge of organizing an annual Veteran’s Day ceremony hosted by the University of Michigan ROTC units at the VA hospital in Ann Arbor. This ceremony was an opportunity for midshipmen, cadets, and unit staff members to interact…

I must have stood out like a sore thumb that day at the water drive. I was a Hispanic male in a predominately African-American region of Flint, Michigan, and naturally my presence on that cold April day sparked curiosity from every resident that had shown up. "Why are you in Flint?", I was repeatedly asked throughout the day as I loaded cases of water into vehicles. I always gave the short answer: I drove over 600 miles to Flint with 40 cases of bottled water because it was the right thing to do…

Before he left he asked the bartender for a drink of water, who in error gave him a 6oz cup of 40% Vodka. Jim drank it quickly noticing the strength of the liquid but figured it was his imagination as he had requested water. The Vodka went straight to his head and he became intoxicated, causing him to lose control of his car which jumped a curb and killed two people. Jim was arrested and…

Convicts Reentering into Communities Reentering the community could be looked at as the start of a new life for convicts. However, it remains an issue because little is usually done to help those released adjust to society. If a convict is incarcerated for more than a year, communities, technology, government, laws, the job market, and family dynamics can all go through changes and affect them when released. These alterations could strain the chances of an offender returning to a better life.…

The decision concerning the termination or the moving of the company from Michigan to Mississippi seems to be a controversial one in this case. From one perspective, the American Tool & Die (AT&D) has a profound culture and tradition that it values intensively. That is the culture of sustaining the local population that it has served as regards to generations since it was established in the year 1912. However, there is a dire need for discussion at the company level before alternative…
