Vlacs Speech

Thank you very much for your generosity! Honestly, there are no words to accurately express my humble gratitude for this remarkable gift offered by you, Marion and Anne Williams. I'm soon to be an undergraduate at Virginia Tech, and I plan to both major in Astronautical Engineering and minor in Computer Science. Ever since my early childhood, I've always been fascinated by the unknowns of space. For instance, it's quite hard to imagine looking at something as massive as Jupiter when you're only given images on Google. Although the images are tremendous, just looking at the planet with your very own eyes could make an astronaut out of anyone. Yet, I'm not actually looking forward to be an astronaut. It's been my dream to work at NASA, but it's

Transition. Clara didn’t let her age or resources get in the way of her goals. She earned her own money to pay for her books by sewing and writing letters for neighbor who didn’t know how to read or write.

In our lifetime a lot of unusual things will happen, some good and some bad. My speech in particular is about one of the bad things that has happened in our parents, maybe even grandparents lifetimes. This case is frightening and disturbing, but the most shocking part is how he doesn’t remember what he did or how he did it. All he remembers is being taken into custody and an abnormal loss of teeth. My information is from “my life among the serial killers”, written by Helen Morrison, an interview from CBS news, and an article written by one of the detectives assigned to the case. In “my life among the serial killers”, Morrison tells about her time hypnotizing “Baby faced” Richard Macek and the horrifying story of what he did.

Changing who you are right now into who you want to be in the future is hard to comprehend. Especially as a high school student, our careers may still be uncertain. It’s undeniable though, that a big part of who you want to be is shaped by being in FBLA. Just being here at the state conference is evidence of the impact. Hello Illinois FBLA! I’m Neha Arun, and I’m running to be your FBLA state secretary. What comes to your mind when I say FBLA? Is it the conferences or the competitive events? Do you ever think about the business aspect of FBLA? The Business Leader part of FBLA often gets lost in the acronym. However, becoming who you want to be in the future is shaped by your business skills. What you learn by forming business partnerships will help you throughout your life, no matter

Linda Chavez seeks to inform Hispanic immigrants and American citizens of the protests between Hispanics and legislation. She also attempts to outline and rid of the common stereotype that Hispanics are an issue to American society because they illegally migrate to the U.S. and raise their flag to harsh legislation. Chavez appears to side with her Hispanic relatives and defends them of their stereotypes by listing various achievements immigrants conquer. In paragraph 8 she states that “80 percent of second generation Latinos graduate from high school. Almost half of second generation Latinos ages 25 to 44 have attended college”. She informs the public of these achievements aiming to rid of the typical Hispanic stereotype that Americans may

Image being struck down by cancer and having to living with a disease eating at your body, well Jim Valvano lived under those circumstances and was able to give one of the influential speeches of all time that people still turn to for motivation. The ESPY Awards is an annual award ceremony in which awards are presented to individuals to recognize their achievements in both sports-related performance and high character outside of sports(Rothman). At the 1993 Espys, Jim Valvano or “Jimmy V” delivered an acceptance speech for the Arthur Ashe Courage Award, a speech that moved the audience to their feet. Just nine months prior to speaking, Jimmy was diagnosed with a severe form of cancer called Metastatic Adenocarcinoma (V Foundation). It was evident, by the way he spoke, his time on earth was quickly coming to an end, in the way he spoke and the stories he told about those he has met through his life. During the speech he referred to not knowing how much time he still had on earth before cancer took him for good (V Foundation).Jimmy V argues the idea that one bad thing life should be able to hold you back from being a strong and outgoing individual. Jimmy Valvano was always able to uplift a crowd by bringing energy to his surroundings by his tone, use of humor, and by using the rhetorical appeal pathos.

The odds of beating cancer are 10.5% but throw in an entire school, county and city, your odds a greatly increased and a teacher at my old school had cancer although he would end up losing the battle with the deadly disease he still managed to inspire me and the entire city of Yulee Florida, this is the story of Mr.O.

Meaningful, powerful, thought provoking are only just a few words that can be used to describe Jimmy Santiago Baca's writing. Baca's book titled, Spring Poems Along the Rio Grande is a collection of short poems, which take readers on a journey through his spiritual union and connection with nature, primarily a river. Through the use of his poems, Baca expresses his hardship and struggles growing up in New Mexico while connecting his need to find spiritually in nature and all it has to offer.

On page 233 Ove is teaching Parvaneh to drive because she does not have a license. She doesn’t know how to use the clutch and at one stop light, and she is stuck there. There is a big suburban behind their Sabb and they keep honking at them to go. Ove finally had had enough and he got out of the car and threw the person in the passenger seat out of the car. He yells at him and tells him how he feels. I have had personal experiences with road rage and poor driving. Only last weekend, I was leaving Selwyn Pub, going home, and a BMW comes and turns into the parking lot and comes so close to our car that I feel like if it moved an inch closer that it would bump our car. Another experience I've had is with my father. He tends to be more aggressive

Hi Kerri Howell. You should consider looking into Roger Gaylord for Folsom City Council achievements and accomplishments before you try and knock him down. I've seen and hear many things Roger's done in the community, which is one of the many reasons he has my support. He’s always out helping others, volunteering and supporting several non-profits in the community. Take a peek at Ripples to Waves Facebook; you’ll see where he randomly paid for a stranger’s entire SMUD bill when she was in need. Your close mindedness doesn’t propel you in your endeavors for the county supervisor position; it shows you have a complete lack of leadership.

Good morning everyone today I am going to talk to you about how Contiki was created and how the company became a success. Contiki began from John’s own desire to see Europe cheaply.

To make this happen, there were guides that he went through to help establish this tourism business. I will also talk to you about how he grows the business and make it a success and of course the traps to watch out when running a business.

In Simon Sinek speech “Millennials in the workplace interview” Simon humorously explains using past and personal experiences that millennials are a great and fantastic generation. They have become an addictive generation because of bad parenting, technology, impatience, and the environment and the only way to change this generation is if they are given help to balance physical and social lives. I would agree with this because I too suffer from an unbalanced physical and social life. At the start of his speech, Simon states that the generation of the millennials is everyone born from approximately 1984 and after. Then he describes the millennials as being entitled, narcissistic, self-interested, unfocused and lazy. Then he explains that
