The Starting Line

Here's a story about a young lady by the name of Leila Meyer (Leila Saks) who believe it or not, was a survivor of the Titanic. This story is true, and Leila was on the Titanic at the time of the crash. She had experienced it all. Leila Meyer was just as excited as everyone else to board the Titanic. As you may know, that was the Titanic's maiden voyage (First trip or journey) at sea. The Titanic was nicknamed the "Unsinkable Ship", which is sad because of how it had crashed during its first…

In A Night to Remember, the Titanic was a massive ship by the White Star Line. The ship was intended to carry its 1,316 passengers and 891 crew members to New York. However, at 11:40 the Titanic struck an iceberg and began to sink. By the next morning over 1,500 people had died. The incident is considered to be a huge disaster. The White Star Line is at fault for the Titanic disaster because they didn’t have enough lifeboats for everyone on board, they didn’t fill the lifeboats to maximum…

“Even God could not sink her,” it was bragged. The Titanic was the fastest and the biggest ship in the world. It was also considered to be the most beautiful and unsinkable. Then on April 14, 1912, occurred the most remarkable ship catastrophe of the historical 100 years. The Titanic, on her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York, collided with an iceberg and sank with a loss of 1500 people. The Titanic’s captain, Captain Edward J. Smith, played a bewildering role in this catastrophe.…

Argument 1 and 2 both address drones. Specifically argument 1 addresses why “Cargo drones can make a difference in Africa, elsewhere” and argument 2 clarifies about “Small drones causing big problems for firefighting planes”. While argument 1 and 2 include tremendous strengths argument one is the strongest argument. To begin, the author’s main claim is that “Cargo drones can help hard to reach areas of the world”. The main reason that supports their claim is that they can fly to areas that…

George Santayana, a Spanish philosopher, once said, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” However, this may not present itself to be a completely tragic philosophical fact. The separation of 400 years’ time between Christopher Columbus and Charles Lindbergh only separated these men, their ambitions, and experiences by a river instead of the ocean both experienced; their attempted accomplishments, experienced challenges, and essential skills flowing along the same paths…

It Can Only Get Better From Here On April 14, 2017, 1,503 people died due to one tragic accident and authors made thousands of dollar by writing about it. This accident happened when the Titanic crashed into an iceberg. Deborah Hopkinson was one of those authors. She wrote the book Titanic Voices From the Disaster, but it wasn’t very fascinating. It would’ve been better if she included more details about the lifeboats. She also could’ve said more about how cold the water was when the Titanic…

Many people believe the Titanic was sunk by an iceberg, however; the iceberg was really only part of the problem. Ignorance is the other reason for the sinking of the Titanic. The Titanic had enough lifeboats for over 50% of people to get off the Titanic, but due to confusion and unpreparedness most lifeboats were not even filled to maximum capacity. Yet, that was not the only reason for the loss of life. Many deaths were those of the third class, mostly immigrants, while those of the first…

To whom it may concern, Between the 1900’s and the 2000’s, about 90 major disasters happened. About 50 classified as natural, 20 manmade, and 30 as not classified. How would you feel if you lost your family in a disaster that is not really classified but you know that it was definitely manmade. Not sure what you mean about the numbers here? In April 15,1912, a disaster was reported of a ship that sank. This ship was called the Titanic which was a Royal Mail Ship from Britain. Many people…

Certain roller coasters hold records for being the tallest or for being the fastest. One of those record-breaking roller coasters is the Kingda Ka. The Kingda Ka is the tallest steel roller coaster and the second fastest steel roller coaster in the United States available for the public. “This upside down U-shaped track bolts up 45 stories in the sky—that’s 456 feet high!” (Six Flags). At the pinnacle of the roller coaster the cart possesses a lot of potential energy which converts into kinetic…
