In the sport of U.S. college football the athlete that is constituted by the network of institutions discourses, and languages as an overworked and underpaid laborer who is denied their ability to exercise their…

As we are drawing near the end of 2016, another election is near. Voters will not only be voting on a presidential candidate, but the anticipated ballot items as well. Through the years, many potential laws have appeared on the ballot and either left the ballot becoming a passed law or becoming another rejected idea. However, there is one law that has remained relevant and appeared on the ballot many times before: the law to Carry Weapons. Rejecters of the Carry of Weapons law proclaim that the…

A fishing trip turns into a terrifying test of survival after Salvador Alvarenga becomes one man against the sea. Salvador Alvarenga loved the simple lines of the fiberglass craft. No cabin or roof. Just a 25-foot-long narrow, canoe-shaped boat designed to carve up the waves like a huge surfboard, agile and fast, with the engine mounted on the back. Alvarenga was a 37-year-old Salvadoran fisherman living and working in Mexico. A heavy drinker quick to pick up the tab, he had no family tying…

around a 16-year-old basketball star, Daniel Williams, who was shot and severely wounded in 2003 by a firearm that was purchased through negligent firearm dealing. Sonner writes on the important firearm case, “If the plaintiff wins this case, it will open the floodgates of [gun] litigation. Trail lawyers will go crazy. They’ll bankrupt the gun industry” (Sonner 969). A threat of this magnitude, litigation, would definitely change the gun industry for the better. The gun dealers who are not…

Going into this paper I had a better understanding of what my teacher exactly wanted. I learned that my teacher wanted a lot of supporting detail for any point that I had tried to make and also she wanted a deeper analysis. This paper was more longer and a bit easier for me compared to paper #1. This is because the assignment was to discussing an activity system that we are familiar with or want to join in the future. The first day we talked about this paper I knew exactly what activity system…

I think the worst recommendation is not allowing police officers to shoot at vehicles. I think if anyone in the vehicle has a weapon then that vehicle should be shot at. I think it would be best if the officers tried shooting the tires or something on the car, rather than shooting the individuals inside the car. Shooting the vehicle may cause the people inside to use their weapons so shooting at the vehicle should be done with skill and patience. I think shooting a vehicle before the driver gets…

The air in the room was stale and the draught from the open door sent particles of dust spinning in the light from the window. Alex lay on his back on the bed, his hands folded on his chest, his profile austere and saintly. ‘Is he ok?’ Mike had hardly spoken on the walk to Hilda’s building; he seemed deflated. He and Sadie were still at breakfast when they arrived, and she and Gary had by stood by awkwardly as Mike drained his coffee and put down his cup before shrugging on his jacket. Sadie…

When a regular viewer tunes in the hit comedy show, Saturday Night Live, what might they examine on their screen? A viewer would be watching a comedy show with primarily young white men, some white women, and very few African Americans. There is a problem with the low levels of diversity within Saturday Night Live, otherwise called SNL. Since the show’s beginning, Saturday Night Live has had a very long history with not displaying actors from a variety of races and backgrounds. I, Hannah Rabitoy…
