I was born on September 1st 2001, I was a happy baby ready for the world to come. I was a very energetic I always wanted to know what was happening. Some of my favorite memories of me with my family were (and still are) the long road trips we do to San Diego. Also I really enjoyed flying to Connecticut to see my mom's side of the family. In the Hollister history the best road trip was when the car broke down just before the Grape Vine ( it is a big hill just before LA). We had to pull over and…

The Ford Pinto was a sports car with a front-engine, subcompact car produced by Ford Motor Company the Models were from 1971-1980. The 1971 and 1972 were the first two-door subcompact vehicles manufactured in North America by Ford and from 1972-1980 came out with the three-door station wagon. Also was the first mass-produced US car with the rack and pinion steering which makes driving a little easier. It provides a quicker and better feedback than a standard system. Below are some pictures of…

Choice 1: Technology has drastically shaped our world and the way we live in it. Many jobs are now done with machines and education can reach those who are thousands of miles away. Blackboards are replaced with projectors, text books replaced with computers, and libraries are at your fingertips. Teachers can now show videos to explain concepts, which in many ways can improve a student’s comprehension, while also engaging their minds. (Picture of a laptop less class vs. class full of laptops)…

between charge-ups. Hybrid cars essentially use both an electric motor and a gasoline engine. The electric motor draws its power from a large battery pack that is recharged by the gas engine and by energy retrieved from the brakes. Since Ferdinand Porsche designed the "Mixte" in 1901, hybrids have not been widely commercially available until the late 1990s, when the Toyota Prius and the Honda Insight were introduced. The Prius is the most popular model, surpassing one million worldwide…

Something new began happening in the football world and governmental world of Brazil: political protests. The people of Brazil are known for the mad love of football, with DeMatta saying that football is an important vehicle of the Brazilian nation building project, a: “highly significant means to the articulation of messages about what it is to be truly Brazilian” (DeMatta, 2009). The people of Brazil take a lot of pride in their love of football, but they will not shy away from letting their…

some of the best in the industry. This is until September of 2015, when it was discovered by scientists at the University of West Virginia that during regular road use, diesel-engined cars from brands owned by VAG—including Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche emitted Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) at levels up to 40 times the amount legal in the US. The software in the cars could apparently detect when they were being tested for emissions (in an in-doors, closed lab) and would intentionally retard the vehicles…

This shows that nothing dramatically changed during this period and then something about the cars changed making them more aerodynamic, so they went faster. The most current race time was in 2016. The drivers, N.Jani, R.Dumas, and M.Lieb, drove the Porsche 919 Hybrid, which went 135.44 miles per hour. The same car won the year before in 2015 with an even better time of 139.31 miles per hour. This is more than double the speed of the first race car to win. What is even more impressive is that not…

The ethnography “In search of Respect; Selling Crack in El Barrio” By Philippe Bourgois is a gritty uncensored look at a geographic location, East Harlem, and the people who reside there that work primarily within Americas multi-billion dollar underground economy. Within the contents of this essay I plan to outline the strengths and weaknesses of Bourgois’ fieldwork carried out for this ethnography. The fieldwork being the primary resource for the book. In his introduction Bourgois presents…

ESPN’s documentary “Broke” in the 30 for 30 series uncovers the unfortunate truth about professional athletes’ inability to control their finances. It was originally written in 2012 to either prove or disprove Sports Illustrated’s report which stated 60 percent of NBA players and over 70 percent of NFL players file for bankruptcy within five years post-retirement. ESPN did in fact prove this staggering statistic. The glamourous thoughts that all professional athletes are wealthy, high-rolling…
