Due to the risk of inflation during this era, wartime programs such as the federal Office of Price Administration (OPA) began taking action to influence Americans to consume wisely. There were efforts made to set price ceilings where consumers did not have to pay more for goods than the maximum price. In this OPA poster, the main focus is a mother and her young daughter surrounded by cans and jars of food. The mother is standing over her daughter while opening, what looks like, a jar of peas. With a jar of carrots in front of them at the table, the daughter is happily looking up at her mother with a big smile on her face and says, “We’ll have lots to eat this winter, won’t we Mother?” At the bottom of the picture in big red writing reads, “Grow your own Can your own.” This poster was used during the war in order to promote food preservation.

The flooring in the hallway is a worn dark…

-Me" We heard nothing after that for a few seconds, until there was a loud crash against the celestial bronze door. We all jumped back with worry. I thought I heard one of them say, "C'mon Death Girl,". Once, twice, and thrice more startling blows to the door but it wouldn't budge. After, we heard a fourth blow and then a body collapsing next to it. This is when it got frantic. Percy, Jason, and Leo all did the same thing my sister tried, while Piper out of insanity tried to Charm-speak the door…

Yummy! Yummy!), stalagmites (ones you might trip over or they might reach the ceiling), stalactites (they might reach the bottom or they hang tight to the ceiling), cave popcorn (has a big blob on top and looks like a popcorn kernel), soda straws (hollow stalactites that hang from the ceiling), columns (we call them a column because we call them a “column”), and more formations throughout the cave.

After the dust settled…after months of sinkless and toiletless rooms. After piles of broken sheet rock and crumbled white powder covering every cement floor. After staring at exposed electrical wires jutting this way and that; and sill plates, anchor bolts, sole plates and studs; and water-stained skeletal wooden framing and floor joists. After all of the air compressors, nail guns, paint sprayers, discarded tiles, end pieces and left over pieces of wood had been removed. After the…

clanging of the punching bag hanging from the ceiling echo through the hall. When I walk into the gym I see our instructor Dean with his long dreads sitting at his desk talking on the phone. It sounds as if he is trying to set up some fights for us. I turn my head to the left and see everyone doing their own thing.
