Universal Serial Bus

Public Service Fellowship My entry into civil service was through an internship with the San Francisco Department of the Environment. It was also my first exposure to policy analysis and environmental regulation; I supported the team overseeing clean air and transportation emissions reductions programs. I graduated from college shortly thereafter and was fortunate enough to secure a job with the San Francisco Office of Economic and Workforce Development supporting their integrated land-use and…

another, blurred into the steel walls. What was it that separated me from being like them? The school bus lurched forward. We approached closer and closer to yet another stop, where a parent stood waiting in grim expression. Five students stood. If there were ever worst days, this was one of them. I closed my eyes to suspend the watery burn of tears. Eight more stops. Seven. Six. The bus was gradually quieting, as more kids left for their homes, their own sanctuaries. Only four more…

“Now remember, if you need any help or anything make sure to ask. Also make sure you actually talk.” My mom said while pulling into the bus loop. “I will.” I sighed and played with my hands. Today was my first day of fourth grade so I was nervous, but I was even more nervous because I was starting at a new school. People would already stare at me because I was new, but also because I was in a wheelchair and I had a bright pink, smelly, double leg cast. I wore a ugly blue and gray stripped shirt…

Most public schools have a bus system. I only have five weeks left of high school left and i have been riding the bus ever since i can remember. The only time that i didn't take the bus to school was when i was living in new orleans. The reason was because i whent to a charter school. A charter school is a public funded school so it's not built by the state. Most charter schools make you take a test to get into them. This particular school didn't have buses so i had to ride my skateboard to…

My first stop on the hunt for government offices and or buildings in Snyder is the Scurry County Courthouse. I had no problem finding this building due to how it's located in the center of town and all the main roads lead to the "square" where the Courthouse is located. The buildings address is 1806 25th street. Lainey, Ellis and I met at the building so we could take pictures for each other around 5:42 p.m. and there was no one in the parking lot except our own cars, but there was a bit of…

Sitting at the bus stop, feeling the cool concrete beneath his feet, and the chipped, worn down bench, Goober waited anxiously for the bus. Sure, he felt bad leaving Jerry behind, but it would’ve felt worse to stay at a place as evil as Trinity. The bus pulled up, and Goober stepped on the bus. Walking through the aisle, he realized he hadn’t even begun to worry about fitting in at his new school. He’d never been to a public school, and it’s hard to be the new kid as a sophomore. Everyone has…

related to one another is a good way for the show to also build drama, so when Karen finds out that her sister-in-law, Abby, is sleeping with her friend Val’s husband, Gary, there is a lot of drama going on. I would say that this characteristic of the serial narrative is effectively handled in this…

GPS tracking devices are a tremendous and astounding way to stop kids from being late to class. We as a community want our kids to succeed and get the best possible education that they can receive. On the other hand, opponents argue that making kids carry around something that tracks them seems a little bit extreme because it makes them seem like common criminals. In addition, they argue that the cost of the GPS device in incredibility expensive. However, I disagree. According to Miller Sylvan,…

Annotated Bibliography: Decreasing the risk of Clostridium Difficile (CDIFF) Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (2015) Clostridium difficile Infection http://www.cdc.gov/HAI/organisms/cdiff/Cdiff_infect.html This particular site by the CDC summarizes all the Healthcare-associated Infections (HAIs), the organism that cause the disease and its data and statistics.

The first half of the novel’s title, “inside out,” reflects the universal refugee experience of fleeing home. This relates to Ha’s experience in various ways. For instance, at the beginning of the novel, when Ha was still back in Saigon, she writes in the poem, “Closed Too Soon”, that, “I’m mad/ and pinch the girl/ who shares my desk,/ Tram is half my size,/ so skinny and nervous” (Lai 38). This shows how Ha was a bully who was feared by others. This proves how before the war, she was a…
