Every dog needs a collar, but, there are many styles and types of collars out there that it can be overwhelming for a dog owner to sort through and research all of the variety of collars available. This article will explain many of the most common collars available as well as their uses. Please note in this article I am not advocating or discouraging any one type of collar and when choosing a collar it should be based on the owners needs as well as the needs of the dog, taking into…

Isopods that live on land are called Armadillidium Vulgare, also known as pill bugs. Pill bugs consume dead organisms in decomposing soil which are acidic in nature. This trait makes these organisms beneficial to our environment, by getting rid of all the dead and decomposing organisms. Pesticides are commonly used to deter pests from eating crops, and could be getting rid of beneficial organisms such as pill bugs instead. An experiment was performed to determine the preference of pill bugs in…

is Mr. Hall. From my fifth grade year, to my eleventh grade year Mr. Hall was my favorite teacher at Red Level. I called him my musical grandfather. Mr.Hall’s wife passed away of cancer, and his children all lived in Tennessee. He lived alone with a pug named Mr. Wrinkles. He was a rough man on the outside, but inside he is one of the nicest men I have ever met. As a young kid I never really had confidence in my abilities as a musician, or anything else…

the Argentine Bulldog, the Pit Bull terrier, and the now extinct Old English Bulldog extensively. The Old English Bulldog is the original prototype bulldog and not the ill-genetically concocted Modern English Bulldog, a cross of the original and a pug, rendering it a obese, wrinkly faced, and a genetic certainty that it will have breathing problems. The Pit Bull Terrier, originally called the Staffordshire Terrier, is a cross of the Staffordshire Terrier and the Old English Bulldog. The breed…

Day One: There was a big snow storm so there was only one child in class. I was not able to pick a Roo-Buddy. Day Two: Everyone was in class. I picked my Roo-Buddy, Eliza. I learned that Eliza has a speech problem. So my activities are geared more towards language development. I let her color and design a folder. The original one was never given back, so I let her draw on another one. I got to know her on a more personal level today. Day Three: Eliza has been out of school because of pink-eye.…

The purpose of the lab was to observe the environmental impact on the behavior of pill bugs (Armadillidium vulgare) by using the steps of the scientific method. . We placed two pill bugs in an enclosed space and recorded the amount of time they spent in two categories of living spaces: hard rocks or soft sphagnum moss. Despite predicting that they would have a preference for a softer area, both pill bugs spent more of their time in the rocks than in the moss. This suggests that Armadillidium…

with...out of all things, “squeak” before bursting into laughter. The only place guinea pigs squeaked, however, was in Sam’s head. The twins just finished talking to their parents, Rodrigo and Sandra, about buying a pet for Sam. Stacy already had a pug, Shadow, and their parents just bought an aquarium full of tropical fish. Sandra couldn’t bear to bring another pet into the house, and Rodrigo felt Sam might have a meltdown when…

Mass hysteria has the potential to tear a community apart as demonstrated in The Crucible. What is hysteria? “It is defined as an overwhelming fear and excitement that overrides all logic, and is often enhanced and intensified by the presence of others who are acting out on that fear” (Campbell). That theme is common throughout the play written by Arthur Miller. From the beginning, where the witchery begins to John Proctor getting hung, the little town of Salem undergoes major changes. That is…

Character development in literature can be extremely well illustrated through literary techniques. One novel in particular, Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston, is written in such a way that literary devices accomplish this purpose. Because of her use of various literary techniques, Hurston is able to develop Janie as a character and free her from the judgement that she experiences throughout the novel. The novel opens with the conclusion of Janie’s struggles. No longer married,…
