Toss

Soccer like sports date back all the way to the Romans and Ancient Greeks. These two ancient civilizations used to play many ball games required the use of feet. The first noted soccer game was played between two countries England and Scotland in 1872. From this point onwards the game became very popular in Europe and eventually spread across many countries in the world. The length of a soccer field can be between 90-120 meters. Matches are generally played between two teams with 11 players on…

Tonight is the night before the night of my Cross Country meet, and piles of homework cover my cluttered desk. My watch displays the time as 10:11 P.M., and I sigh deeply knowing that I have no choice but to shove the loose papers and binders into my backpack. I finished my before bed routine, and crawl underneath my covers. With the guilt of knowing I will not reach eight hours of sleep tonight, I force my brain to shut down, and darkness envelopes me. The next day drags on and soon find…

surface? That’s where the fish finders come into play. It can be in the steamy hot and humid dog days of summer or the frigid wind-whipped subzero arctic conditions of winter out on the ice of a lake, but how do you figure out where the best place is to toss out that hook? Where are those big lunkers hanging out? Are you out on a fully loaded bass boat or a kayak decked out for fishing or casting out from shore or just dropping your line down an ice hole? You do want to know where those fish…

to be out of town. After leaving Pencey early, he decides to stay at a hotel before going home, knowing that his parents won’t care that he’s gone. Therefore, when he gets close to someone he finds it hard to let them go like his parents constantly toss him aside. In one case Holden claims, “If I get a chance to remember that kind of stuff, I can get a good-by when I need one-at least, most of the time I can.” (Salinger 4) Holden’s…

James Madison argues in his article of The Federalist No.10, Our government was created to accomplished governing the aggression and corruption cause by factions. Madison characterizes factions as groups of individuals who assemble to secure and advance their exceptional financial interests and political suppositions. Despite the fact that these groups are inconsistent with one another, they conflict with citizens in general interest, and in general other citizens interests as a community.…

For this assignment I have chosen to compare the difference between and round character and flat character. Flat characters are characters who are very simple. Generally within a story, there is not much development for these characters. They are called flat because there is no depth within them. Their motives or attitudes do not change in the story. An example of this are the mean sisters in the story of Cinderella. They dislike and treat Cinderella poorly, however we are not given a specific…

27-years-old, I first-handily witnessed my brother be victimized and labeled by our own family members for being gay only to praise their so-called God all 5 of their children didn’t turn out like him. Most recently, my father’s so-called friends opted to toss there years of friendship to the trash for being disabled while an insurance supervisor bluntly told him…

Bimba I hopelessly sit on the chalky sidewalk alone, isolated from the roar of street cars and buses intrusively honking their obnoxious horns. My thoughts surround me as I wait for someone to make a simple gesture and toss a small bill in my decrepit Tim Hortons’ coffee cup. The petite awning of the Korean restaurant I sit my back against, along with my cup and two nickels, is all I have. Ever since I lost my job, I cannot bear to see the face of a human, especially my own. Listening to the…

I agree with the reversal decision made by the Supreme Court. Although Yates altered his catch after his boat was encountered by a Florida fish and wildlife officer, The Sarbanes-Oxley Act which Yates was charged under was established to prohibit corporate and management from knowingly altering or destroying "any record, document, or tangible object" with the intent to obstruct an investigation. While we are all aware that Yates engaged in wrongful doing by tossing the undersized fish out, where…

Odysseus and his men boarded their old ship with a mermaid on the front. Odysseus was a young man, 6’4” tall and made of pure muscle. He was wearing a white toga. The enchantress Circe had given Odysseus many warnings about his journey. Odysseus yelled, “gather around men! As we are sailing, we will be passing sirens do not listen. If you listen every emotion in you will fight to get there, if you jump you will drown and die! as we are short on ear plugs we might lose one or two of you, and…
