There were 5 transects, distinguished by pink tape, that started at the North end of the Hill and progressed down, then up the south side of the hill. Our data was then reflected upon F.E.

Jarebear somehow was the nickname I received when I was younger. At the time I hated the name and my Mom just loved it. The name faded away for a couple years then on my 12th birthday my Mom Brought rice crispy treats in and wrote a letter to Mr. Rettinger. In the letter Jarebear came up and if you know Mr. Rettinger he’s going to have fun with that. Jarebear flew around and today my buddies still won’t let it go. Ashcraft comes from a sweaty dweller on a farm who grew ash trees. To be honest I've

A Narrative on Americana Music Research I chose to do the topic of Americana music for my research paper for a number of reasons. For the last several years, I’ve found myself listening to more and more of this folksy, country-like, “old’ sounding music without really knowing what it was. Then, a year or so ago, one of my favorite artists of this style – a guy named Sturgill Simpson – won a grammy. The title of his album is “Metamodern Sounds in Country Music”, which perhaps should have been a

The Garden Café is my favorite place to eat in York, South Carolina. The atmosphere is so delightful. The service and attention to detail is impeccable. Whether you 're looking for a place for lunch with the girls, a romantic dinner or a wedding reception, you won 't be disappointed. Teresa James, the owner, has an eye for detail and her experience in the art of hospitality shows from the moment you enter the door. The restaurant has seating for 130 patrons.

Lo que les obliga a velar porque los efectos de las disposiciones de la Convención no se vean mermadas por la aplicación de leyes contrarias a su objeto y fin, y que desde un inicio carecen de efectos jurídicos… En otras palabras, el poder judicial debe ejercer una especie de “control de convencionalidad” entre las normas jurídicas internas que aplican en los casos concretos y la convención Americana sobre
