The Day I Affected History

December 7, 1941 was a day that changed American History forever. At 7:48 am, Hawaiian time, the military base was attacked by 353 Japanese fighter planes, bombers and torpedo planes, launched from six aircraft carriers. This attack resulted in four sunk battleships, two of which were able to be recovered, three more battleships damaged, three cruisers damaged, three destroyers damaged, 159 aircraft damaged and 188 aircraft destroyed. There were also thousands of casualties involved in the attack, mostly military, but several civilian casualties as well. There were 2,403 Americans killed, 1,178 wounded and 68 civilians killed and 35 wounded. The Japanese had many fewer losses, they lost four submarines, 29 aircraft and 64 men were killed (History.com

In this case the plaintiff, CBD, litigated CDFW on the following principles of CEQA: rules governing PEIRs, baseline setting, deferral of mitigation and alternative analysis. In regards to PEIRs it is defined by CEQA as an “EIR which may be prepared on a series of actions that can be characterized as one large project and are related [among other possibilities] … [a]s individual activities carried out under the same authorizing statutory or regulatory authority and having generally similar environmental effects which can be mitigated in similar ways” (CEQA Guidelines, 15168, subd. (a)(4).) In this regards both courts concluded that the hatchery and stocking enterprise was such a project.

The Ascension Catholic Church is located in 2950 North Harbor City Blvd Melbourne Florida. The close proximity of the church from my home enabled me make a visit to the church last Sunday for the morning mass at 9.30 am. My neighbor who is a member of the church had earlier invited me to visit the church with him on Wednesday evening. He further informed me of the church's dressing code and even suggested that I accompany him to the church. However, since I wanted to get more exposure I declined this offer. Instead, we resolved to attend the Sunday service since it had higher attendance from the congregation (Ascension Catholic Community1).

Bright lights and dark nights are what every Friday night consisted of for every high school student. Despite every negative comment they got about our football team, students were still out there standing in the freezing cold weather showing support for our football team. What made this football season unforgettable was that after having years of zero points on the board, the football team managed little by little to put points up on the board. As the Hopkins football player comes toward Florencio Guilarte as fast as lightning, he throws the football to his teammate right on time. Breaking history is what this moment is and what they were doing. Breaking the negative comments and showing that they are working hard everyday to improve and make

Within our expansive history lies many infamous moments that have been enshrined inside a photograph. While image that I picked for this paper isn’t necessarily a photograph that many individuals know about, this picture is a great representation of the emotions that captures the global war. This photograph features Himmler and other Nazi officers observing detainees and prisoners of war during World War II. Himmler, one of the leading members of the Nazi party, is visiting the Shirokaya Street Concentration Camp in Minsk, Belarus during an inspection tour of the facility. I picked this picture because my roommate was watching a WW2 documentary and it was one of the pictures that popped up. In the image, you can primarily see officers and

In this assingment I will be answering the questions given to us as a guide one by one as to cover every part of the given assingment.

Historical events have a major impact on people’s lives and how they view the world. These events can affect those who live through them, and even those who are born after. Three events that have shaped my life are the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center, the Columbine shooting, and the Deepwater Horizon Explosion in the Gulf of Mexico.

The question does not only ask about the key event in history like the American Revolution, or the Civil War, but key events that changed our ways of knowing. History is to understand ourselves and why we do the things we do. Looking closely and honestly at the past from a lot of different points of view improves our odds of understanding it well enough that we don’t repeat

One thing that impacted me the most from our speakers is what Mike said. He said “just because we are in a wheel chair does not mean we need all this assistant, and does not mean we like getting help from everyone”. This impacted me because, I was always wanting to give them a hand, and give them all the help they needed, because I felt bad, and thought they needed it. However, like Mike said, they would rather not get help all the time. They would rather be independent and build their confidence. Another speaker that impacted me was Bret. Bret stated, “This accident was the best thing for me, and I wouldn’t be where I am today if it never happened”. This impacted me because, we see so many people today get into accidents, and lose a limb

The whole course of human history may depend on a change of heart in one solitary and even humble individual - for it is in the solitary mind and soul of the individual that the battle between good and evil is waged and ultimately won or lost. There are certain events in history that have had a very big impact on the world. Three of these historical events include The Holocaust, World War II, and D-Day.

Throughout history, there were some historical moments that took place that shaped the world we live in today. From the beginnings of man to the modern world we live in today, humans and nature have influenced and shaped modern civilization. To me, the most important part in history would be the Greek Civilization. From time and time again, throughout pretty much this era forward, the Greek civilization at some point as been mentioned. The Greeks started so much of what is used today. A good example is the Olympics. The Olympics were started by the Greek to develop a sense of unity with up to 150 cities. A political and social system started called Democracy during this era. This allowed people to share their government equally in their

There are many different life changing events that can change your life. Sometimes things happen in people’s life and they can’t do anything about it. Changes can be good and sometimes it can be a terrible thing that results in a positive turn in one’s life. Change is a part of life that no one looks forward to. Everyone’s life changes at some point. Life is full of many unexpected challenges that will be thrown in your face at any place and any time. People learn and grow from every experience that they go through in life. Some of the events that have changed my life was losing my grandmother, graduation, and going to college. Changes come almost every day in my life.

Throughout history, there have been a few defining moments that have created America as we know it today. Some of the most influential moments have come from speeches delivered by some of America's most profound individuals. It’s important that we continue to study these individuals because they have defined the world we live in today. The book, Essential American Documents and speeches, contains numerous documents that represent change and reform that have helped us develop as a country and define us as a Nation.

There have been very few events throughout my lifetime that I feel have impacted or inspired me with such noteworthiness and that I know will change my outlook on the world and affect me forever. One of those events occurred when I traveled to Portugal, my parent’s homeland. From this excursion in 2007, I learned the importance of family, most importantly the distant kind. It provided me with a totally different perspective on the world and how large and extended one’s family can really be; even across cultures and continents. I felt so fortunate learning this lesson at a young age and growing to appreciate the ideals I was brought up with as a child. The family I have in Portugal has always been there; however, their faces have aged and

An accident last year changed my attitude towards life . That accident had a great impact on me , it taught me to treasure what i have and to treasure those people around me more . Although the accident was not life threatening , it was still the scariest thing i had ever been through in life . It was an accident that no one would have expected and wanted it to happen .
