A train barreled over Joseph Hewins' body on a wintry evening in 1845 in the Massachusetts Berkshires. Hewins had spent the workday shoveling snow off the tracks, only to be killed on his trip back to town when a switchman got distracted. Hewins left behind a wife and three children, who were poor even before his death. His widow sued but lost at every level. Had the train merely chopped off Hewins' leg, the railroad would have paid. But in the perverse logic of that time, when a man died, he took his legal claims with him. And so the thinking went for most of the century, until something unheard of began to happen. The courts started to put a dollar value on a life--after death.

Carl Hiaasen is a renowned author known mostly for his bestselling adult novels. Born and raised in Plantation, Florida, Carl Hiaasen grew a passion for literature, specifically journalism, at a very young age. As a result, his father willingly gave him a typewriter. He spent most of his time either writing sports stories on his new machine or frolicking in the boggy wetlands of the Everglades. However, Hiaasen became enraged after frequently watching the national park being demolished for new highways, shopping malls, and resorts year after year. Soon, he attended Emory University, where he wrote satirical humor columns on the student newspaper. A year later he transferred to the University of Florida, where he graduated with a degree in journalism.

Humans are constantly reminded that the world is changing in many ways. But always seem to forget that situations can occur where life as we know it can change in an instant. Many popular science fiction movies and books tap into our deepest fears. For example, the movie Frankenstein (1931) where a fatal accident causes the creation of a monster who is capable of destroying a whole town and the Bradbury story, “Usher II” where a man goes against society on the topic of banning books and censorship. The two stories show the common fear of losing the world as we know it.

The history of the fire service is a long and colorful tale dating all the way back to ancient Rome where it first began. Perhaps one of the most important characters of that time, roughly 250 A.D., was Saint Florian von Lorch, now known as The Patron Saint of the Fire Service. Florian von Lorch was a captain in the Roman Army, who had the reputation of being a brave and fierce soldier. Rome recognized the need for a fire service and more importantly, someone to lead that service. They recognized the need for a strict and disciplined leader and soon called upon Saint Florian to train and lead the new fire service. Florian did such an outstanding job with his new found role that they then promoted him to General. Soon after rising to such a

Wilhelm Heinrich Otto Dix, a known portraitist and realist artist in Germany in the 1920s and 30s, is known for his controversial artworks that focus on taboo subjects surrounding World War I and II. This period evoked a rise in portraiture and a decline in abstraction because “human beings, shattered by wartime experiences and filled with existential fear, suddenly seemed to be worthy subjects” (Rewald 3). When he returned from fighting in the war filled with anger, horror and disgust, Dix was inspired to follow this evolving theme in art in order to express his feelings, which is something he believed could not be done in painting landscape

Leeuwenhoek has been one of the factors that shaped my aspirations to be successful and never give up my dreams, even if I faced difficulties due to his unique determination, confidence, genius, and hard-working personality that qualified him to invent the microscope , one of the most beneficial inventions that contributed to the field of science and medicine. He taught me that my model in life should be about hard work and confidence that can reveal the path to success and great achievements. Success is not about the fear of failure. But it is about never to give up regardless of the many unsuccessful trials or hardships. Success, for me, it is about how far a person can handle a hardship. It is about the ability to overcome failure. Leeuwenhoek’s microscope came after several failures which he faced while he is building the microscope, that motivated me to success and never abandon my dreams. I was really inspired a lot by such scientists and inventors. So, when my teacher and high school counselor advised me not to take AP courses during my second year in the U.S. because the language barrier might make it harder for me to understand what was going on, I assured my counselor that I can handle AP courses because of my hard work and determination. And, when I took these AP courses in multiple subjects, my teachers and advisor were surprised by the high results I
