We exist in a world where there are many heroes and heroines, were people showcase their courage, bravery, skill, and curiosity, where many aren’t afraid to take a leap outside of their boundaries. These are the people that we remember, they leave legacies, and they make an impression in our world. I happen to be one of those people who took a chance; for that is why I’ve become one of the most remembered people in all of American history.…
While at a family gathering, I sat down with one of my uncles, Dick Talbot. Following the usual informal discourse, he announced, “I’m going to tell you a story.” Always interested in an amusing anecdote, I leaned forward to avoid missing the details. Dick, in his eighties, spoke softer than he had in the past. None of the deficiency, I attributed to the listener’s loss of…
The American baseball player and coach John Wooden once said, “It’s the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen”. In the nonfiction novel Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand, Louis Zamperini demonstrates his cleverness when he pulled himself out of countless life-threatening situations, such as devising a plan to capture sharks, that would prove to be the end for most others. Louie made the most out of what little resources he had and paid attention to the details that would help him in the future. Even in the grips of death, Louie used his quick wit to bring himself back to the land of the living and keep himself going.…
This laboratory is based on a series of famous experiments that were conducted in the 1960’s along the rocky shore of Washington state, in the northwestern United States…The nine species in this laboratory’s simulated rocky intertidal area include three different algae (including one you may have eaten in a Japanese restaurant); three stationary (or “sessile”) filter-feeders; and three mobile consumers (Keystone Predator Student Workbook). In this simulation there are nine different species. The Nori Seaweed, Black Pine, Coral Weed, Mussels, Acorn Barnacles, Gooseneck Barnacles, Whelk, Chiton, and Starfish. The Nori seaweed, Black Pine, and Coral Weed are all algae, which means they live in damp environments and are plant like and have chlorophyll. Having chlorophyll they make their own food through photosynthesis, the fact they can make their own food makes them autotrophs or producers, and are the lowest on the trophic level. The Acorn barnacles, mussels, and gooseneck barnacles are the filter feeders of this environment they do not move. They are the herbivores of this environment and the primary consumers on the trophic level. The whelk, chiton, and starfish are the only mobile species in this environment. Also they are the only carnivores in the environment and are secondary consumers on the trophic level.…

One common observation about humanity is that each and every human is in this world for a reason, and oftentimes, we each need to discover what that reason is. Many quotes have the theme, “It’s the journey that matters, not the destination,” and indeed, it’s the journey where all of the learning takes place, that’s why all books end when the adventure is over. Literature is a reflection on society’s values, and an insight into human nature, so naturally many books have stories that explore a person’s journey throughout their life. From the poorest to the richest, the youngest to the oldest, each person has a story to tell. Barack Obama shares his story of self-discovery through his…

During my 18 years, I’ve learned how important family is. Your family will always be there for you no matter what. My family supports me in everything I do. All their time and money cannot express how much they love me because love is more than any of that. Love between families is a special bond of time, laughs, smiles and memories. Love is something that family doesn’t have to say to each other because we already know and I am blessed to have a family that loves me in every way possible.…
