Issues of gambling will come to people’s minds when paying college football players like point shaving. Many universities make a lot of money off their football programs.

all the colleges and universities that are available. I filtered the list by added requirements and preferences. I narrowed down my search to colleges that offer my major, are in the southern region, and that are classified as a four year college. After researching private, public, local, and far away schools, I narrowed my search to two private school and one public school. I selected The University of Notre Dame, The University of Baylor, and Vanderbilt University. University of Baylor and…
Yes, the Atomic bomb changed history forever. It showed the world that America had the innovation and technological skills to create not just one, but two weapons of mass destruction. It saved countless American and Japanese lives, and yes, it killed countless Japanese and serval American lives too. However, I am not convinced that the American fire bombing raids over Tokyo and other highly populated areas of Japan did not kill more and do more overall damage. The argument has come down to this,…

The bruise first appears red and swells up due to the blood seeping out of the vessel, but later turns a bluish color due to deoxygenation of the area. In fact, in the attached article, the University of Notre Dame studies shows that the oxygenation of the blood peaks its low during a severe contusion. Diagnosis of bruises are obvious when there is discoloration of the skin and slight or moderate pain when pressure is applied. However, if a bruise seems…

Ambition is a key part of life. Everyone has at least a little inside them. It is a drive to go forward, take the extra step, be successful. But ambition has been seen as negative or bad by some people. This is a problem as ambition is all so important to humans. We need to differentiate between noble and blind ambition. Blind ambition is a darkness around your mind that clouds your mind of what is right and what is wrong. There is no regard for other people. Sam Griffiths, managing director…
The land now known as Great Britain has had a long history of invasion that has shaped the culture of its people. The Romans in particular, through invasion and conquest, have largely affected the people of Britain. Romanisation, according to the Oxford classical dictionary can be defined as, "the process by which indigenous peoples incorporated into the empire acquired cultured attributes which made them appear as Romans (Hornblower, 1996)."

That is precisely what President Obama accomplished in the Oval Office on a day-to-day basis. He acknowledged what he was obligated to do as president…
