I will be doing this research paper on the Tundra Biome. Tundra is the coldest of all the biomes. Tundra comes from the Finnish word tunturia, meaning treeless plain. It is noted for its frost-molded landscapes, extremely low temperatures, little precipitation, poor nutrients, and short growing seasons. There are a few special characteristics that this biome includes, which is, extremely cold climate, low biotic diversity, simple vegetation structure, limitation of drainage, short season of…

even more acceptable to mess up the language, so long as I was trying my best. That is the principle of situational ambiguity. I can credit the experiences of jumping into the chilly Atlantic Ocean, as a common Norwegian summer ritual, or trying reindeer sausage, moose sausage, liver pate, and even fermented fish to the principle of situational ambiguity. Because of this, I have experienced some of the most…

medal at the Olympics, despite suffering from polio as a child. None of that mattered to me: I just thought she had the greatest name ever, because it combined one of my favorite cartoon characters, Wilma Flintstone, and Santa’s most popular mutant reindeer. By the way, somewhere around that time, Wilma (Flintstone, not Rudolph) got pregnant on TV. They didn’t actually show her getting pregnant (although I’m sure there’s a porn version on Netflix called “Bed Rock”). Before long, she was wearing…

Each tree is dressed generously in silver and gold like the Burl Ives song from Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer commands because I solemnly and sincerely agree and trust an animated snowman with the voice of an angel. They also each have ornaments chosen carefully and lovingly each year of my life- representing to me not material things- but hours of time…

I have participated in several community service projects including: Serving at the Banquet, Kids Against Hunger, Mission Trips to New York City and Detroit and assisting a first grade classroom. Through these projects, I have been able to serve those in the Sioux Falls community and abroad. Serving at the Banquet allows the homeless and hungry of Sioux Falls to come and eat a warm meal. During the hours spent there, you not only get to serve the food, but you also get a chance to talk with…

Paleolithic Age and Neolithic Age, wall paintings were a major cultural change to humanities. Paleolithic life comes largely from paintings found in caves. Most of these paintings were naturalistic. For example, ‘many of the animals-bison, mammoths, reindeer, boars, wolves, and horses- gracefully jump, run, and romp, conveying a remarkable sense of animation.’ These paintings are done with pigments used of mineral oxides in the colors black, brown, red, and yellows. These paintings were created…

In my family there is me, my sister Emily, my mom Shelley, and my dad Donald. Of course you cant forget my cat Molly. Whenever I'm sad, happy, or angry Molly is always there for me. People may find this weird but a huge part of my life is Molly. She always knows just what to do to cheer me up. To me she is just as much a family member as anyone else. I also used to have another cat who meant a lot to me. In 2008 she died. We were all really close o her and she was one of my best friends…

On December 3, 2016 I attended a Holiday Concert at Temple College’s Mary Alice Marshall Performing Arts Center. This concert was performed by the Temple Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Thomas Fairlie. The Temple Symphony Orchestra’s 23rd Holiday Concert featured Grammy award winning tenor, Dann Coakwell, and soprano, Teri Johnson. Temple College’s voice instructor, Teri Johnson, soprano, performs all over the south and east. “Ms. Johnson is a versatile lyric coloratura soprano achieving…

A community is a group of people who live or work together in the same area. Also having a particular characteristic in common, such as a social, religious,or other group sharing common interests as well. People in communities might have the same schools in common, speak the same language and do other common things together. Community is used to categorize people with the same characteristics, but who also have many differences from each other. Different types of communities are Muslim community…

the states! Number Seven: Bears are the most common animal found on these jumpers. Sitting by the Christmas tree, riding on an open sleigh, or even just standing there holding presents, bears seem to be the animal of choice. They even beat out reindeer, which occupy the position of second place. Take that, Rudolph! Number Six: High end designers have created their own, beautifully homely fesitive…
