1) Can you touch on the late season push the Rangers pulled off to take the division and how they managed to do it? How will that carry over to the playoffs? The Rangers have been hot in the back end of the season, and there are many factors that go into that. I think the first thing has been the moves that GM Jon Daniels made at the deadline. Going out and getting Cole Hamels has been absolutely huge, as it gives them an ace to trout out there every fifth day. They also got Southpaw Jake…
Neighborhood Watch is based on the principle that encouraging residents to watch for each other and report suspicious behavior to the police will bring about a reduction in crime (Rosenbaum, 1987:112). However, the potential offenders might be avoid from commend…
diverse cultures due to its affordability, economic opportunities, and its access to cultural institutions (“Mott Haven – Choice Neighborhoods Initiative”, 2014). In 1849 Jordan Mott purchased the land of what is now known as Mott Haven. He purchased the land for workers’ homes to support his iron works business on the Harlem River at East 134st (“Mott Haven – Choice Neighborhoods Initiative”, 2014).

first kiss. Little Shavers is where I first experienced video games, Frogger and Space Invaders on the Atari system. Mornings were fun there we would play on the Atari or we would watch TV usually Inspector Gadget or sadly sometimes Mr. Rogers Neighborhood. I am not sure why but that man always seemed a little off and kind of creepy even…
Too Much T.V. is Bad for A Child’s Development Today in the United States 98% of all households, have at least one T.V. in their home (Facts and T.V. Statistics.)

steadily after World War II. Many homosexual veterans remembered San Francisco as a open-minded city and returned after the war. Seventeen percent of the city’s population was homosexual by 1980. Next to the Castro is its very affluent neighborhood Eureka Valley, a neighborhood that popular with LGBT community and family. The Market & Castro Street Cable Car line opened in 1886,…
Most of these studies are conducted on the program Sesame Street. It is hard to find out any one that was not raised by watching Sesame Street.

explained the reality of Milwaukee which is said to be the most racially segregated city in the United States. Milwaukee used to have job opportunities for people. However in the late twentieth century, many manufacturing companies moved out to overseas or sunbelt communities where they can find cheaper labors. Since half of the black men was working for the manufacturing companies, many people lost their jobs and between 1980 to 1990, the black poverty rate in Milwaukee has increased from 28…
Media has been focusing on the bad news that it overlooks what the city of Milwaukee is doing to prevent crimes from happening. I and my family will watch the news on a daily, I remember how Fox 6 News would have a saying late at night, "It's 10 pm, do you know where your kids are?", and my mom will call out each of my sibling names. It's certainly that new broadcast is doing something and show awareness but doesn't show as a whole a lot of what the city plans and why residents should be aware.…
From MKE to OKC Everything happens for a reason, right? I born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin; in a poor ghetto neighborhood.

As we were about to leave, two men in black uniform came up to the car and asked us to go…
