David is merely an accountant. He sits day after day surrounded by walls punching in numbers. He hardly even knows what he is doing, if you’re going to live your life by the calculator, at least be good at what you do right? “I am unsure if I can go on like this.” He says to the motivational cat poster on the wall. “My life is nothing but a blur of boring, a real anti-climatic black and white movie that has features no sound. Something needs to change, I need to experience danger.” Although it may appear that David is insane, spilling his feelings to a poster. There are a lot of people that may feel the same way. Where can one go to feel alive again? To feel the blood pumping through their veins as the pressure of adrenaline builds and builds until you explode with excitement. I have an idea, it’s time for you to take an adventure to Spain and run with the bulls. Adventure Showreel 2013 …show more content…
An annual event in which a group of people run in front of about a dozen or so bulls in a sanctioned-off subset of a town’s streets. Believe it or not, this dangerous race actually has a very high participation rate and is extremely popular to witness among travelers. Bulls are beasts that can weigh up to 1,380 pounds; they are responsible for 15 deaths in the event since 1924. The adrenaline rush must be intense, as each runner has to cross an 875-yard course, that’s almost 9 football fields. Once you start, there is only one direction you can travel for behind are the raging bulls closing in quickly. The only way out is to safely finish the course or to hop over the walls on the
Ever since forty plus years ago Agriculturalists have shown a variety of show cattle and ran ranches with them. I showed cattle for a few years throughout my FFA experience. Cattle have played a huge role in our society feeding families and other people who reside in this world. Their effect on human culture is something that we take much pride in when raising our cattle whether it is for companion or meat products. Previous cattle showman know and strive to achieve the ultimate goal: winning grand champion. This reward is earned by having the best show calf in the ring to the judge’s perspective. In order to reach this goal, the exhibitor must use proper feeding methods and show technique. (Insert thesis here.)

Today bull riding is the fastest growing and most dangerous sanctioned sport in the United States. There is also a lot of controversy behind the sport when concerning the care of the bovine used. To have a better understanding of the sport we will look at the history and talk about scoring and care of the bulls involved in the event. I have chosen “The History of Bull Riding” from the American Cowboy Magazine, “ABBI: Raising Bucking Bulls for Profit and Pleasure” from the American Cattleman Magazine, “Bucking Tradition, Bull-Riding Fans Cheer for the Beasts” from The Wall Street Journal, and “Eight Seconds to Glory-Bull Riding” from the Southern States website for this paper.
In two different speeches by two different Native American chiefs, Chief Seattle and Red Cloud, a similar topic in that of the removal of Indians by the U.S. government, was addressed. However, the speeches by the two chiefs were very different, in terms of tone, figurative language, and the clarity of their message. In, "On the Red Man's Trail," Chief Seattle used much figurative language, especially similes, to get his point across. Some of the numerous examples are, "Yonder sky that has wept tears of compassion upon our fathers for centuries untold...," (paragraph 1) "My words are like the stars that never set," (paragraph 2) When our young men grow angry at some real or imaginary wrong, and disfigure their faces with black paint, their hearts also are disfigured and turn black...," (paragraph 6) "My people are ebbing away like the fast receding tide that will never flow again," (paragraph 12) and, "Some grim Fate of our race is on the Red Man’s trail, and wherever he goes he will still hear the sure approaching footsteps of his fell destroyer and prepare to stolidly meet his doom, as does the wounded doe that hears the approaching footsteps of the hunter." (paragraph 22) Meanwhile, in his speech after Wounded Knee, Red Cloud sparsely used figurative language. The vast majority of his statements were easy to comprehend and literal, with some examples being, "I will tell you the reason for the trouble. When we first made treaties with the Government, our old life and our

Next time you go accusing the NBA of being cheap, take a step back and look at the facts. Thanks to a new report with confidential information, we now know that nearly half of the league lost money in 2016. With players taking home astronomical paychecks, how is that possible? Well, let's look at the facts.
The constant fight against pain, the stressful atmosphere, the deafening roar of a crowd, the seemingly never-ending fight or flight response: these feelings are costs bulls are forced to pay in exchange for human pleasure during bull riding events. The bulls never asked for any of this. Even after the intense fear and pain, temporary rest can only be found in a confined cell, and there is no end in sight to the madness. The bulls of the Professional Bull Riders are doomed to repeat the vicious cycle.

A term that I often heard in elementary school whenever my smart-ass would talk back to inept faculty members or raise my voice at teachers. Although my days as a rowdy, spherically shaped fourth grader are numbered, I can tell you that I've learned to respect (some of) my elders, let alone the NBA's reigning patriarch.
Have you served in a war? Has your father or mother served in a war? How about your grandpa? As we honor those who have served we typically do so by standing for the pledge of allegiance or star spangled banner. We say thank you to our war heroes or we go and visit them and listen to their stories. In this paper I will be discussing why NFL players should not be allowed to kneel for the flag. Although the NFL players have the right to peacefully protest, they should find a different way than kneeling as it shows disrespect towards the flag also active duty military and veterans, it teaches young children this behavior is okay, what they are protesting has nothing to do with the flag and there are many different ways to get their message out.
If there’s one athlete that we can match to how a cheetah runs, it will definitely be the legendary Usain Bolt. After the multiple times that he shone how talented he is, Bolt never waned in giving his fans from all over the world the show they deserved. We have seen him plastered on humongous advertisements of sports brands, his name being mentioned on talks about world-records and his story being capitalized as inspiring, momentary and captivating. Haling from the humble country of Jamaica, Usain Bolt is one of the few names in the history of sports that will always be remembered, always be mimicked but nevertheless, cannot be replaced. Certainly an athlete worth rooting for, Bolt emerged victorious again at the Rio Olympics 2016, quite an expectation from a sports superstar.
For example, using a leftover coffee can for loose nails or screws, or even washing and reusing a plastic zip-loc bag instead of throwing it in the garbage. Thrift shopping is a way of reusing someone else’s unwanted goods. As I spoke about in an earlier speech about thrifting, I included many locations and ways to thrift, also the benefits to the shopper and the donator. One place in particular was shopping at the local boys and girls club. I personally shop there, keeping my eyes open for a good deal. For example, the pair of jeans that I am wearing today was purchased from this store just a few months ago. I paid only $8.00 for this pair of Lucky Jeans and according to buckle.com, a retailer for lucky jeans the retail price is $99.00 that is a savings to me of $91.00.I am not the type to worry about name brands, but quality usually does cost more. If I can get a quality pair of jeans at a fraction on the price, I am glad to shop at the thrift store. I am thankful to the person that made the donation of the lucky jeans and they can benefit from that donation. According to the IRS webpage, IRS. Gov it explains that an individual can donate items like clothing, household furniture and furnishings, a car or boat, even taxidermy. The donations are appraised, by the donator, and recorded. At the time of filing taxes if the donation equals at least $500 for the year, the donator may take advantage of the
