Written Summary of Self-propelled particles that transport cargo through flowing blood and halt hemorrhage In the summer of 2005 my uncle punctured his femoral artery while on a biking trip. He was biking around a corner at a high speed and crashed over a fallen tree on the road. He landed on a piece of broken glass which cut through his thigh and perforated his femoral artery. Although bystanders wrapped his leg in gauze he bled out on the scene waiting for an ambulance to arrive. This…

The idea “everyone gets prizes” in children sports, detracts from the purpose of sports. Many people believe children’s sports shouldn’t pass out medals for only participating within the sport, but they should be rewarded for their efforts and have one trophy that the champions of the league should receive. First off, participation medals eliminate the spirit of competition, secondly it takes away the purpose of playing a sport and it builds children to grow up without different teachings,…

As Chance secured the buggy, he watched Kat spread a blanket on the ground. She sat down, pressing her blue calico dress next to her ankles. Perhaps the mild April air reminded him of home, but somehow her simple action took him a lifetime away, to another woman, to another time, to memories he’d always hold dear to his heart. Thoughts of his own wife made him wonder how Jake had ever let Kat get away. The last two months had passed in a flurry. He had to admit, getting to know Kat and Abby made…

It was 2014 state was right around the corner. This was our second to last tournament of the year, it was a local tournament in Kimberly Wisconsin. This year we had a good year, we won quite often and we qualified for a lot of nationals but waking up that morning was different. This tournament weekend will forever remain in my mind. I woke on Friday morning. The sun was shining, and the birds were chirping. Such a beautiful day for softball. I did not suspect what we would be in for. None of…

No matter if they gave it their all or simply sat and watched,every kid is getting a trophy. Is there such thing as winning or losing anymore? In today sports kids are given trophies for participation the idea is that everyone wins. Taking away the true meaning of what winning really means. When you get a trophy it feels good because you worked hard for what you did. “When awards are handed out like candy to every child who participates, they diminish in value”. (Betty Berdan) Everyone gets…

The show opens with a fast forward to the final episode of the season, similar to season one of How to Get Away with Murder (Robinson, 2015). A station wagon is seen flying down a dirt road and we see the three main characters (who are inside the car) looking behind them in a panic. Without any further context it will cut to the opening credit sequence which are panoramic shots of New Mexico, inspired by the opening scene of chapter 39 of House of Cards (Buchman, 2015). In the pilot episode, the…

At the end of Isaac Asimov 's The Caves of Steel, robots seem to be the salvation of the human race, as foreseen by Dr. Fastolfe and the spacers--a highly advanced society of humans from the outer worlds. At the same time the spacers believe they have preserved the future of humanity, however, in an event foreshadowing how robots will one day represent a threat to humanity and perhaps the failure of the spacers’ plan, Robot Daneel Olivaw says the most shocking lines of the story: “[g]o and sin…

Music is an ever evolving idea that every person has the ability to change, the question is, will you? We had the privilege to sit down and talk with Billy Changer, a new aged musician with a vision for future. Get ready world, as a wise man once said,"we're going to Billy Change you." Being exposed to some of the greats, such as The Rolling Stones and Hawkwind, at a very young age, Billy's musical inspirations started early. "My dad has been a rocker all his life, I thank him for showing me…

The two observed practice sessions were successful and effective in general; however, there were some points that needed to be improved. In addition, each practice had some considerable strengths and weaknesses, which were sometimes common in both practices. In order to evaluate and compare the practices in terms of comprehensiveness and efficiency, their similarities and differences should be assessed. Although the two practices were different in many aspects, they had some common points. For…

Understating Alice Paul is an important part of understanding our history as women, and even men should understand the horrors these women experienced in their time. Alice Paul has not been completely forgotten by all means, but has been forgotten on a huge level. Very few people have learned about the struggles of Paul and her fellow suffragists. Paul is one of the lucky ones in my opinion, for there are hundreds of women’s names that we will never know. There are contributions that will…
