During my educational career I was a participant in program called The College Crusades of Rhode Island. The College Crusades of Rhode Island is a college readiness program. Since the third grade I toured several colleges, learned how apply for college, studied good academic writing, was educated on financial welfare and had many classes on understanding how to choose your career. When it came to choosing my own career my view was stuck between what is practical and what do I love? I had a flare…

the horizontal bass; but, they’re not completely right. Though Fender made the “ Precision “ bass ( which was the first good sounding bass ) there were at least 4 prototypes before that. The modern bass was a grandchild to the seventeenth century double bass. The first notable change was in the nineteen-twenties by a man named Lloyd Loar, which at the time worked for a notable guitar producer called Gibson.

This notion has been in existence for 800 years and originated from English Common Law. The double jeopardy protection averts three scenarios, a retrial for a crime that would attract a 25-year or more sentence if the original acquittal is…

I am going to begin this essay with a heartfelt apology. I wanted to get this out of the way because this is going to be a very opinionated essay, comparable to that found within the last two pages of the online reading Art Without Boundaries. Unlike the aforementioned reading, I do not believe art has cultural boundaries. Neither in the past and especially not in today’s multi-culturally embracing society. There used to be an understanding that (good) art transcends all boundaries. Up…
