Danika Research Paper

Maryusha Antonovksy was no more. In her place stood Mary Antin, the same immigrant Jewish girl but with a new “American” name. Mary had also bought “real American machine-made garments” to replace her “hateful” homemade European-style clothes. “I long to forget,” she said. “It is painful to be conscious of two worlds.”

Each year, the FBI provides research on law enforcement officers that have been killed or assaulted; many people know this as LEOKA. The goal of this data is to provide people with information through the UCR (uniform crime report) about law enforcement officers who have been feloniously and accidently killed, and also officers who have been assaulted in the line of duty. The uniform crime report presents this information through overviews and statistics about each of the victims, where they come from (the state they resided in), and also when and how they were killed. Throughout the years this has become an effective way to research and learn about this topic and understand why it is important to know about. Throughout this paper I am going to find patterns through different regions and states in the United States under all three of the topics LEOKA focuses on and find similarities and

Easily one of the best women’s basketball players to go through  Michigan State University's program. The five foot eight inch guard from Freeland, Michigan was the “ace in the hole” for Michigan State's program for the past four years. Gathering over 2,000 points, setting the all time scoring record, securing the most points in a single game record, and the most three point baskets made in a single game. This superstar received BIG TEN honors all four years of her time at MSU. Jankoska graduated in May, 2017, with a degree in Psychology, and had high hopes of being drafted into the Women’s National Basketball Association, a week prior to graduation. As every college, high school, and even youth league basketball player dreams of  being good enough to play in the WNBA, only a few ever receive the opportunity to actually play. Jankoska was one of the few. First round pick (ninth overall), Chicago Sky, saw the talent Jankoska had worked so hard to obtain. Jankoska moved to Chicago to prepare for her first season in the WNBA. She played in a few preseason games, so her coaches could see if her skills were sharp enough to play this season, or if she needed a year off. Jankoska’s off season work, time, and effort payed off and she made the Chicago Sky’s Roster for their season opener, against Minnesota on May 14, 2017.

The Golden Age of the English lute came during the 16th century; a time filled with freedom, humanism, and the rapid rebirth of the world’s culture. The Renaissance was a liberating era in which the classes started to fall and musicians started to gain more importance in society. Religious beliefs started spreading and transforming into new ideas, such as humanism: the belief that human life is more valuable than any divine spirit. Society was changing and in order to stay with the fads of music, composers had to look for a new angle. All the worlds music would change after the introduction of the lute.

Many recent philosophical works and studies on weakness of will are heavily influenced by Socrates’ and Aristotle’s work on akrasia— acting against a better judgment because of a weakness of willpower. However, the existence of akrasia is debatable. Akrasia can be denied due to the fact that no one willingly commits self-harms. On the contrary, akratic belief may be accepted due to the fact that it is experienced in people’s every day lives.
