houses of varying size, age, and geographic location. The analysis showed that the amount of money saved (or not saved) by installing a Tesla Solar Roof varied widely depending on factors such as these. For example, one house was built in 1850, in Salisbury, New York (Hope). This house installed 70% solar tiles and 30% non-solar tiles (Hope). It cost the homeowner $38,400 to install the roof and $7,000 to install one powerwall battery (Hope). The homeowner received a $12,500 tax credit, and…
“Women are the largest untapped reservoir of talent in the world” said Hillary Clinton. Today there is still so much work needed to improve the rights of women. Even though the role of women has dramatically changed since early modern society, we still face problems of inequality. It is difficult to believe how different the role of a woman in early modern Europe was compared to today when we are still not satisfied with the role that women are allowed to play. However, it is arguable that…

Hairr, Helen Salisbury, Mark Johannson, and Nancy Redfern-Vance examined the relationships between nurse staffing, job satisfaction, and nurse retention in an acute hospital environment. Three research questions were explored in this research - the relationship between…
archaeologists/historians hypothesise the structure was to replicate an ‘astronomical observatory’, signifying astronomy. But how have they analysed the evidence to justify Stonehenge's purpose being of astronomical significance? Stonehenge, located in Salisbury, UK, is a prehistoric monument, consisting of mysterious megaliths and several unusual artefacts surrounding it, making it of uncertainty. After its three main phases of construction (3100BCE to 2800BCE), it has just stood quietly over…
Thomas Hardy’s “The Ruined Maid” and X.J. Kennedy’s “A Prominent Bar in Secaucus One Day” both allude to the topic of prostitution. By analyzing and interpreting these poems, one could compare and contrast the themes, historical contexts, women’s roles in society during these times, and the subject of feminism to further understand why the women chose the life they did. Thomas Hardy’s “The Ruined Maid” is a story that contrasts the lives of two girls; one who is an un-named farm girl and…
City, Church, and the Empire Many people depict medieval Europe as times of kings, knights, and epic battles that end in great bloodshed and loss. While these things are true, medieval Europe was much more than that. It was a time of controversy, strong and terrible leaders in politics as well as the church, and many changes in population and how the Europeans structured their culture. Writers and historians of this time period, like Thomas Aquinas and Thomas More, produced many works that told…
As an intern, I didn 't have this case on my own since my agency will not let us have our own case until later in the year. It is a CPS case that I assisted an investigative social worker with. I aided the social worker with some of the interviews. Thus, I also went with the social worker to pick up the children and their belongings so that they could go with their safety resource; which was their grandparents. When we went to the home we had to have law enforcement involved due to the mother’s…
As a tribute to the story of the Bible, Donatello and Michelangelo both recreated David through their own interpretations. Both artists were similarly influenced by the environment around them as they recreated this figure. The sculpted faces of Donatello’s and Michelangelo’s Davids each reflect a representation of the Florentine government at the time of their creation. Although the actual date of the sculpting of David is unknown, a rough estimate claims for it to be around 1420s to 1460s.…
Characterization Vietnam Veteran I interviewed Sargent Jim Dombrowski, a Vietnam Veteran at the VFW in Jonesboro, GA. He is now a 68 years old retired Veteran. His physical appearance was somewhat neglected. He was drinking a cold beer and smoking a cigarette. He served from 1965 to 1967. When I started with the interview Sargent Dombrowski looked a little tense, I could also observe his anger and pain in his eyes, but at the same time he was excited to start with the interview. He has five…
