I walk back to our bench after warm ups. My heart is racing as I look at the crowd, it seems like the stands are packed. I sit down as my fellow teammates form a tunnel for the starters to run through. Coach C. begins to list off the Creede starters. After he names the last Creede starter he announces, “Now put your hand together for your home Pirates!” the crowd breaks out in a mass hysteria. After this he says, “Freshman, number 12, Owen Voll!” Owen jolts up and sprints through the tunnel. The…

divine, which has beauty, wisdom, goodness, and everything of that sort. These nourish the souls wings … but foulness and ugliness make the wings shrink and disappear” (Phaedrus, 246e). When Socrates speaks about the winged chariots going towards the rim of heaven, he describes them on a slope where “the gods’ chariots move easily… but the other chariots barely make it (Phaedrus, 247b). The struggle to reach the banquet and eternal life represents sin oppressing the soul in its journey. The…

through infection (Rim & Lim, 2014). These biohazards include bodily fluids, infectious agents, and chemicals. Nurses are continuously in contact with bodily fluids such as saliva, blood, and urine. According to Rim and Lim (2014), about 50 percent of nurses are exposed to some form of blood from a patient at least once a month. Although proper protocols are in place, there are always instances where blood from a patient splashes onto a nurse’s bare skin, mouth, nose, or eyes (Rim et al., 2014).…

seat and move down to tire. Tires are usually the dirtiest so you might want to spend a bit more time on them. Avoid getting water on your brakes and the chain. You will clean them later. When the bike is squeaky clean (well, at least the frame, the rims…

Defeating Doubt by Dunking There is a sense of nostalgia when I hear the squeak of the court, or witness some of my favorite NBA legends dunk on a defender. When someone has that special talent to dunk, it gives them more power, more intimidation. It dispels fear into the hearts of other teams, causing them to shutter as someone walks out of the locker room, knowing the abilities that they have. I wanted to set fear into the hearts of my opponents, to have the ability to dunk, to end the game…

Yantis, Texas in reference to a burglary. Upon my arrival, I met with the complainant William Parker. Mr. Parker told me that on January 15 2016, he observed his four six lug sixteen inch American Racing rims stolen from his property. Mr. Parker also advised that he located one of his rims at the top of his drive way. Mr. Parker advised me that he lives on another piece of proeprty in Yatnis,Texas, but he comes to the above address everyday to feed his squirrel. Mr. Parker then took me into…

is a pretty darn good shooter, perhaps one of the best in the NCAA. Ingram can stretch the floor with his perimeter shooting. His offensive game as a whole is enough to help a team at this moment. He can take defenders off the dribble to get to the rim and with his length it makes him even more dangerous. Speaking of length, Ingram has a wingspan of 7’3 and standing reach of 9’ “1.5” which makes his ability to defend the perimeter look very well and has the potential to be elite. His defense is…

A lot of people like being outside. People in many countries are never inside till night; they are always in the woods working. There are a lot of ways to get around the woods and to get places faster. One way is dirt bikes and ATV’s; they can get people to places faster and easier but the dirt bike will be the better choice. The dirt bike is the best one to buy out of the ATV because it is cheaper,easy to handle, street legal, easier on gas and a lot lighter than the quad. When Motocross…

Imagine having to play basketball with a soccer ball and a peach basket. James Naismith didn't have the money to invent a new ball so they just played with a soccer. Peach baskets were used as the first hoops. Basketball has changed over the years. From the invention of basketball to the modern popularity today, basketball has evolved into what it is today. Basketball was created by James Naismith. In 1891,he invented the game of basketball. He worked as a gym teacher at the YMCA. He worked in…

In this study I observed two bananas over a 4 day period making observations each day at 3:00 pm. My first observation I used as a baseline to guide my observations. I put one banana in the fridge and the other on my desk. The temperature of each area remained constant over this period of time. I measured the color, the firmness, and the amount of brown spots on each banana. To describe firmness, I used a chart that I created that measures firm to mushy. The scale went from one to five where one…
