Over the course of the past four years, I have been playing guitar for a bad I and my dad started that was called Crossing Fire. For the longest time that was the only thing I felt I could talk about because I felt like an outsider at high school. Sure, I have a lot of acquaintances, but once that final bell rings at the end of the day I generally never see them outside of those walls, and quite frankly, it never felt they cared much for me with the exception of school activities. As Crossing Fire grew, we began writing our own music and playing shows with other bands anywhere we were able to, and because I never got past that “outsider” feeling, I began to accept that my life in high school and outside of high school were two completely different things. I’d soon come to embrace it as I met more people who cared for me and thought that I was worth talking to. Because of this, Crossing Fire became part of my identity in a way. Over the last summer, we really hit our peak as we …show more content…
God revealed to me one of the greatest truths in life. The only way, scientifically speaking, for a mountain to move, is by means of an earthquake, and the bigger a movement you want, the more catastrophic the earthquake. Everything that anyone has built around or near that mountain will crash down in an intense fury, but by doing so it sets up area for you to build something greater than what was there before. Just like when a forest fire happens, it burns all the trees and destroys hundreds of thousands of years of hard work, but also creates fertile grounds for new life to spring up, eliminating all the disease that was spreading in the
These are the survivors thoughts on the Triangle Factory Fire. There was over 100 survivors but I choose two of the most important people who lived from the fire and I am sharing their thoughts.
The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire of 1911 was one of the most lethal workplace tragedies in American history. 141 young women died that day, because of their unsafe work conditions. If they had fire extinguishers and a sprinkler system, or even just a better fire escape, no one would’ve had to die. The girls did not have access to these things however, because they were not required by law.
During this investigation, I will be analyzing the aftermath of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire that occured in New York City on March 25, 1911. I will specifically be addressing the question, “To what extent did the Triangle Factory Fire of 1911 help give workers the reforms that they had already been demanding?”
The Triangle Factory Fire took place in New York on Saturday, March 25, 1911. The fire was marked as the worst in history of the state of New York. Men, women, and children of all ages were there but unfortunately there were more women/girls than men/boys. There were many people to not find a way out of the building but some decided to jump out of the windows for a way of escaping the fire. Majority of those who escaped by the window lost their lives. The employers had no clue of this ever happening as well as the fire department who did not have enough man power or equipment for this massive degree. Although majority of the workers died, there were some who lived to share their stories.

On august 29th at 2:30 in the morning a fire broke out by highway 190, east of Springville. The cause of the Pier fire is human caused but is still under investigation; New research shows that humans are the cause of 84% of all wildfires. As of september 18 it has burnt 36,556 acres and is at 95% containment, the estimated containment date is september 20th 12:00 am. And at 10:00am september 18th Tulare County officials lifted all evacuation orders for the Pier Fire, and Highway 190 is now open to traffic. The communities that had mandatory evacuation where Sequoia Crest, Mountain Aire, Rogers Camp, Pierpoint Springs, Cedar Slope, Camp Nelson, Doyle Springs, Alpine Village and Wishon. But the civilians coming back to their homes still have to be aware of the danger still prevalent, such as falling trees and smoke inhalation.
How would society be if it didn’t have the proper tools or materials it needed to save life or if safely wasn’t the first thing people thought of and it was all about money learn to see how the Triangle Fire started, kill hundreds, and why reforms were passed after this fire. The Triangle Fire in New York City was the deadliest lethal workplaces tragedy in U.S. history until the attack on the World Trade Center. It killed 146 people and most were women, the women worked in a hard and unsafe work environment and were mostly crowded. These working conditions were mostly neglected by owner of the factory and the owner of the building, but let's see what Albert Marrin an author of the book “Flesh and Blood So Cheap” know about the Triangle Fire
The Triangle Factory fire not only affected the city of New York, but also the rest of the country.

The hayman fire is the biggest fire in recorded history burning 138,000 acres. The fire has had long lasting damages on the environment. There were many factor that added up that created a dangerous situation where the area was very fire prone.

Majority of mice in New Mexico’s Valley of Fire have dark color. The population increase of dark-colored mice in Valley of Fire happened because of natural selection. Mice that do not suit the environment, which are light-colored mice, cannot survive in Valley of Fire because they are easily noticed on dark soil by the predators. On the other hand, dark-colored mice can hide easily on dark soil, which made them survive. Whereas the mice near the desert are mutated, those near the lava are not mutated. Each mouse from different lava found to have a different gene. Whereas the mice near the desert’s color change was from a random mutation, that of the mice near the lavas was not random. Because, each dark-colored mouse from two different lavas
The Triangle Shirtwaist Fire was an infamous part of our history as a nation. The fire began on the eighth floor of the Triangle Shirtwaist factory and quickly spread all throughout the building. The fire took almost one hundred and fifty lives, most of them being young women or girls. It was not just the fire that took so many lives though, but women and men alike jumping from many stories up, to their death, just to have a possibility to live.
Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve observed people playing music around me. My family is musically inclined, which I believe is the reason I’ve been drawn to it. In 2006, I began taking guitar lessons but I never had much interest in playing. Things changed in 2009, and I wished to be different. I wanted to be good at something so I began to teach myself guitar and have stuck with the guitar until now. In 2010, I began to play on my church’s worship team and I enjoyed it very much. I have now been a worship leader for the past four years and it’s something I love to do. I love it so much that for the past two years I have gone to Camp Electric to
The wicked heat, the ear-pounding noise, the stinging air—the assault on Ken Sims’s senses was almost unbearable. At any moment, a shower of molten rock could have reduced him to cinders.
