It was a crisp and clear winter morning and down at the training field was platoon #155 working on battle positions and communication. This is where our character is starting out their career as a soldier and is working to fight on the front lines. They were doing their job right in a way but no one else was doing it like that. So to everyone else they looked quite stupid and were given looks like they were a headless bird running around. It's like they think that people don’t notice. Most people would think all of the platoon was like this because it was a recruit training group and wasn’t a very great one either. Though something felt different, even though it looked weird it worked better than what was in the books. Based on the

Blane was almost ripe to take over the Lairdship of Edinburgh had his father not been prime. At age 30, he was remarkably handsome and attractive particularly showing traits of a good chief. Slowly but surely, his father has trained him regarding the land they occupied, fought for and won as favors from the King through a long line of rich heritage and valiant ancestry. He was no doubt the prized possession any woman would have wished for.

The year 2017 was a productive and fulfilling year. I continued to publish articles; participated in a number of conferences, both nationally and internationally; got a contract for a scholarly book with the University of California Press and two contracts for textbooks—one in English and the other in Arabic. I also continued to be the co-editor of Jerusalem Quarterly. Furthermore, I o-curated an exhibition, and served as a book referee for Princeton University Press. On teaching and service level, I taught a number of classes here at ISU and at Qatar University, and was active in committee work, be it at ISU, Qatar University, or elsewhere on voluntary basis.

I am living in the North Georgia Mountains of Georgia. Currently, a war that is supposed to “End All Wars” is going on this year, 1918. My father has been drafted in to this bloody war. I miss him dearly. Why cannot all of the countries of the world get along nicely? Do they not realize that if they did, their would be no conflict, and everyone would be living in peace and solitude. My mother has took up a new job at the artillery factory during the day, and she works for a farmer in the fields in the evenings. Poor mother can’t catch a break. I do not do much schooling or education. There is not much time for it. I have to watch over my brother, Jasper, who is 4, and my baby sister, Juliette, who is 18 months old. Father was drafted right

The city of Chelsea is seeing massive changes in its community, yet not everyone is benefiting from these changes. This is not an unusual phenomena to happen in this society. More specifically, the displacement of Chelsea’s residents have been reaching extraordinary heights. The building of new condos and hotels in the community have been both a beautiful, yet destructive occurrence. New buildings lavished with the newest architectural aspects, loom over homes ready to collapse or infested with pests. In order to be able to build these edifices, the residents need to be pushed out of the way and moved to wherever they can go. Not many companies care about whether these individuals are capable of making such major changes and if their

He began by pointing to his neck, in particular, the scar. It lay half an inch below his mandible and was as thick as a thin wire with small ridges like that distinctive of a hospital heartbeat scanner. I had always seen it, though I never paid it much attention as it faded through the years. Even with his nicely tanned skin that was almost a bronze, the scar was still darker.

I can make personal relations to the series Sevens due to the fact I have experienced some of these teens issues. The severity of my problems do not compare to all of them, but they are similar to some. I can relate to the stories on Danny, Jane, Karyn, Reed, and even Peter. My situations were very similar to theirs.

I’ve been struggling for many years with state of politics in America. Although I attempt to follow Biblical commands to pray for my leaders (yes, sometimes it’s just please let their term end with no re-election), over the last decade or so I’ve felt a growing discontent with the decisions that have been made in the name of tolerance with no tolerance or allowance for conservatives (and even some extremists) who don’t agree.

In this day and age, our new interest in using different generic ways of using gene editing or genetically modifying."Genome editing techniques have been used to change genomes into individual cells and in entire (non-human) organisms" (Andrew, par 10). Allowing for the human to function in a way where we can extend a human's expended life by solving any issue or concerns the spouses may have on if they will pass certain chromosomes into the child. Which are harmful, by simply removing or adding either or the four nucleotide bases inside one’s DNA. This is a blessing for future patients , but a scare for doctors and organizations like American Society of Human Genetics, who warn against it. However, they fail to realize that the use of

Let’s begin Shoshana Hebshi story, she is a thirty-six-year-old woman, who is an American citizen that happens to be half Arab and half Jewish, she lives in Sylvania, Ohio. On the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, Hebshi was flying with Frontier Airlines, where she was sitting by two Indian-American men. The plane landed in Detroit, Michigan and federal agents immediately boarded the plane, they ordered everyone to place their hands towards the seats in front of them. They instantly went over to where Hebshi and the two gentlemen, almost as if they were targeted, and handcuffed them, then transported them to a cell. They happen to be the only ones on that plane that

Sixteen years, Kalyssa had waited for her family to come claim her. The tiny flicker of hope, the little girl inside of her tried desperately to shield, had flared to life at the time of reading her stepmother’s invitation. Later, however, it turned out they needed her help to find her stepsister, Ming. Not exactly the warm welcome, hug or apology, which she had expected; it should not have surprised her when a ripple of fear threaded through her, but it did.

Imagine a world in which diseases are eradicated, food-shortage is prevented, and human life can be preserved. This all is possible with CRISPR-Cas9 (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats), a genome editing tool seen as the breakthrough of the century. In fact, it’s not the first time we hear about gene editing systems. I am quite confident that a numerous amount of people has heard of genetic engineering, which is widely used in medicine, food, animals, agriculture, as well as many other areas. For example, scientists can modify fruit structures to make them bigger and richer in vitamins but with CRISPR they can make all kinds of modifications to the DNA structures of many living things for a specific outcome. Of

Somethings in life, we find very sad. Although most of us wouldn't be alive without them. This exact feeling affected me in June of 2017, we were away from home experiencing a whole other feeling a whole other feeling, a whole other world.

The meaning-focused input (MFI), as suggested by Nation and Newton (2009), is one of the four strands that are required for a well balanced language course. According to Nation (2009), learning vocabulary through reading is one of the activities that promote this strand. Some results of the present studies provided some evidence for the MFI strand. The findings suggested that, the degree of effectiveness of intensive reading activities, in which learners infer the meaning of new words from context, in facilitating L2 vocabulary learning may depend on different factors such as reading strategies, knowledge sources, contextual clues and number of encounters of target words. While contextual clues significantly contributed to knowledge of

key. Take as much time as they will allow. I am the one who made time. What did I do on the sixth day? Man’s time and my times are different. Do not rush ahead of me. I have to touch hearts. When you turn in the key, tell them my Father thanks you. When they give you your keys, tell them my Father thanks you and I thank my Father. When you step into the house, thank Me. When you step out of the house, you thank Me. Praise Me! Praise Me! Every box you touch thank Me! Thank Me in My Son’s name! The enemy is going to try and block you. Say “Jesus,” and he has to flee! You have to fight! Fight! Fight! Until you know the wall is down, every box that you touch, know that I am working it out. Get an appointment book. You are
