I like the offbeat feel of this style of music and syncopation was something I wanted to explore within it. A well-known Caribbean musician is Bob Marley and I know that he uses a lot of syncopation in one of his best songs “three little birds”. In this song you can hear the syncopation in the hi-hat, cymbals, organ and guitar; playing the chords. In this way, he plays with our expectations of where…

The law would have to be centered around consent and not just notification if the United States wanted to decrease as many abortions as possible, due to the study that yielded that “parental consent laws reduce the minor abortion rate by 18.7 percent, while parental notification laws reduce the abortion rate by about 5 percent,” which shows how parental consent laws are superior at decreasing the number of abortions than just a law requiring notification.…

When justice is required as a means of peace, it is again a responsibility of military forces.

My role model is Andrew Albers. He is a big brother to me and an inspiration in my life. It is not only what he accomplished so far, but it was how he did it, and the actions he had to take to get to where he is today. He was successful in not only sports, but in his schooling and personal life as well. He is a great human being and presents himself well. While he has won many awards and has great achievements, he did not do this without any road blocks trying to stop him from being the…
