Today we leave Fort Kearney to follow the Platte River until we reach the California Crossing. We will walk 170 miles and will take about 19 days to reach our destination. Yesterday Charles got food poisoning from eating raw meat. The Kenneth Flag family made us bacon to eat for breakfast. I thought it was odd to now just start giving us food when we're in the middle of nowhere but I didn't want to be rude and not take it. Charles was the first to eat the bacon and the first to get food…

The first source is an editorial cartoon drawn by American journalist Harold Jackson. The author conveys that those who think they are doing a lot to help our planet, in reality, are not doing much at all. Within the cartoon, an overweight man is sitting on a chair. This highlights that the man is a sedative individual who consumes a lot. Stereotypically, obese people are regarded as lazy and careless. The author uses this stereotype to hint at the fact that the man is careless towards the…

The two articles 30 Days as a Cuban and Nickled and Dimed can be interpreted in different ways. Both authors explore controversial ideas and are put through tough circumstances. While both articles do have similarities, it is my belief that Symmes can be a conqueror while Ehrenreich can be considered a native. Ehrenreich’s Nickled and Dimed is a great example of someone dealing with the hardships they are faced with. For a short time dealing with two jobs at once, Ehrenreich explains one of her…

Within the body of a child dwelled an atom, who helped to make up the elements that dwelled in the body of a child called Alex. Even though, the atom was the smallest unit in the whole body, it helped to make sure the daily needs of the body were met. The atoms acted as the tough guys of the body because they were big in number, or so they thought. They would often compare their amounts of neutrons, protons, and electrons to one another and drawing out structural and molecular formulas, to make…

Dr Marshall believes that taxing sugar would stop the consumption of too much of it and promote health food (Marshall).

school lunches. They should be allowed in middle schools. It’s the safer option for students. The adults concerned with the school also agree. Despite common belief, these food vendors would not affect students health. First, accommodating these new food vendors would not create a health hazard for the students. Similarly to the Domino’s pizza that is brought into Bear River Middle School (BRMS), the new food options must comply with government standard. These regulations were put in place to…

People argue what is better- waffles or pancakes? It is very hard to find differences, besides the looks and the texture. But still, some people prefer one to another, and they argue about which is better. People say pancakes are more fun to make and shape. But others think that eating a waffle is better, because of the delicious, crunchy texture. Waffles usually have a hard, crunchy texture, with a soft inside.

These days, the average American consumes 130 pounds of sugar a year. That’s about 16 times as much as the people in the late 1800’s! Sugar is extremely addictive, can lead to several diseases, and is immensely unhealthy. According to brain scans, sugar is just as addictive as cocaine. One theory is that we like sugar and sweet things because the first thing we taste, our mother's milk, is sweet. Another theory is that a fondness for sweetness helped early humans. Sweet-tasting foods like…
