The Goddess Persephone was a very beautiful and well worshiped goddess, she was loved by all, do to how she was very kind and caring as well as being able to bring warmth to the earth also known as spring. Persephone is the daughter of Zeus the king of all gots and the daughter of Demeter the goddess of the harvest. Indeed she was very beautiful, or at least enough to catch the eye of the ruler of the underworld. He then fell instantly in love with her and knew he had to have her. So he devised a plan to take her as his own. One day Persephone was picking flowers for her mother Demeter when she noticed a beautiful scent and decide to follow it. After wandering off from the field she looked up at birds fluttering and suddenly the sky began to

Growing up in the south we tend to create and use colorful vocabulary. We have y’all, darn-tootin, fixin-to and among others cattywampus. Cattywampus is a word that I have grown up hearing in my house. To me it means messy, disorganized, and to say the least discombobulated. The etymology of a word does not always have to be symbolic; sometimes there is an actual historical story behind it. My mom still tells me today that my room, car, or myself are all “cattywampus” and that I should fix it.

There was a high food shortage in 1946 and this caused many to ration. World War II left a deep wound in India as two and a half million Indian soldiers were sent to aid the allies and 24,000 killed. Many were unemployed as they lost their jobs after the war since there was no need for war production. Gandhi’s party, Indian national congress, created in 1885 seemed it would be the power that ruled after Britain left. This changed, however, as the All Muslim league became popular during World War II. Muslims were a minority compared to the Hindus. The Partition of 1947 created Pakistan, where the Muslims would live, and India, where the Hindus would live.

The Southwestern Athletic Conference has given the NFL, the SWAC has given the league nothing.

Besides being entranced with the golden dome, “touchdown Jesus” also found a place in my heart. The Hesburgh Library is one of the most beautiful buildings on campus. It is appropriately named as well. Fr. Hesburgh was an influential leader on campus and throughout the world; he was an advocate for peace rather than violence. Under his tenure, the first female class was admitted into the university, and after serving as president, he was able to witness the first African-American valedictorian. I am sure a dream of Fr. Hesburgh was fulfilled on that spring day. Even after the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was passed, he continued to fight for equality in housing, employment, and higher education for minorities. Hesburgh’s attitude toward equality

A mysterious and strange malady arrives in the small American town of Abida which can be found on an island off the coast of the New England region. The island is somewhat isolated, most political matters are handled locally between it's people, this is due to the islands history. The people of Abida are the final result of successful human amalgamation between slave and owner with many of which who still holds on to their eccentric ancestral beliefs that revolve around "the old ways". This causes many to rarely visit or leave the island and as a consequence Abida is flung into a realm of enigma lying beyond the fringes of the New Englander's conscience. Without the aid of the mainland however, the disease, which is referred to locally as "scourge" takes large sections of

Annabeth is angry because she had a vision that she would find a clue to her missing boyfriend, Percy Jackson, at the Grand Canyon. She was told to look for the "one with the missing shoe." Jason, who has lost a shoe in the battle, has no memories of his own identity, let alone Percy Jackson's whereabouts. Jason, Piper and Leo are informed that they are demigods (children of a god and a mortal) and are taken back to Camp Half-Blood where they meet other demigod children like themselves. There, Leo is revealed as a son of Hephaestus, Piper as a daughter of Aphrodite, and Jason as a son of Zeus and the brother of Thalia. He remembers his sister while seeing a picture of her in Cabin One. After scarcely 24 hours of learning about their previously hidden identities, the three receive an urgent quest to rescue Hera, queen of the gods, who was captured by unnamed

The primary reason why my child deserves to be considered for the FTEA scholarship is that he embodies the mantra of striving for excellence academically and athletically. Ever since he first entered the education system he always went above and beyond for his schoolwork, going as far as taking 1st and 2nd grade math and literacy classes in Kindergarten. In athletics, he excelled in Football as well as track & field and has earned the opportunity to play division I football for Wagner College. When he was not on honing himself in his academics or athletics, Adedayo gave back to the community. Throughout his time at Franklin High School, Adedayo has logged over 300 hours of community service through feeding the homeless, providing the less

The group chosen for our project was the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill branch of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (UNC FCA). This organization’s main purpose is worshipping Jesus Christ through participating in athletic and charitable activities. We chose UNC FCA because our group is fairly diverse with our religious preferences, and we all felt we could benefit from understanding more about not only Christianity here at the university level, but also how UNC FCA blends both sports and religion together. We believed this organization would be heavily centered on sports, but in reality a majority of the members are not athletes. In fact, some members told us this is a common misconception. One of the members, senior Dustin
