Pennsylvania State Capitol

sitting down in the middle of the State Capitol in Montgomery Alabama. Well reading this post he said “I am willing to go to jail for what I believe in’’. I remember reflecting on this. His action really motivated me and still motivated me to this day. It made me think of the Civil Right Movement of the 1960’s and how if you speak your mind it can make a difference. He sat there in the middle of the Capitol since it open till he was forcibly removed by the Capitol Police and arrested. He was willing

extent to which classical Greece has impacted America today. These influences can be seen nearly everywhere, from the streets of the nation’s capital to classrooms all over the country. Ancient Greece has had an enormous impact on the modern United States, especially in our government, architecture, mathematics, and language. Arguably the most important legacy left behind by Ancient Greece is democracy. The term itself originated in Ancient Greece, stemming from “demos” (people) and “kratos” (rule/power)

hides any details from the rest of the squad. Rex is the oldest and most experienced of the group and the best fighter of them with just the standard weaponry; CR-100 plasma rifle, and a military standard plasma pistol Pi-67. Miles Damien was the marksman of the group, having a very broad view of things and having the knowledge to look in places where others do not is the cause of his expertise, earning his call sign “Sharp”. Sharp sports a LR20 plasma sniper with a 6x and 2x transition scope and

of what happened to Orchestre National de Lille, a French orchestra, when the musicians began taking advantage of those who were running it. Having majored in music at the collegiate level and also having been a student council member for the Penn State Center for the Performing Arts, I can fully understand the critical role of the sponsors and the inner mechanisms that run these organizations. My motivation to fill this need within the non-profit performing arts and development world is exactly what

road from me called the United States Capitol Building. I feel like I am back at home in Rome when I see such a building! The people of this strange land say this building houses the government of their country. I find this hard to believe. A building as large, and as grand as this should be a home of God, a

Americans in the Enlightenment period strongly connected themselves with the classical age in terms of how they approached their art. The Enlightenment period lasted for about 150 years, from approximately 1700 -1850. Throughout this time period many artists took inspiration from the classical age which occurred in ancient Greece and Rome hundreds of years before. We can see examples of this in buildings like The White house and Monticello in America, and Kedleston Hall in England. These three

Imagine waking up and seeing the Twin Towers being hit by airplanes and seeing mass destruction in the city. What would you do? How would you feel? What would you say if you were the President of the United States at the time that horrendous attack occurred? “ One of the worst days in America’s history saw some of the bravest acts in America's history. We’ll always honor the heroes of 9/11. And here at this hallowed place, we pledge that we will never forget their sacrifice.” 9/11 was a very tragic

conviction. Me on the other hand? At least I can hunt and I am pretty good with a bow. I am a stronger person much more capable of looking after myself and using my wits to protect me than Prim will ever be. She is a baby! It astounds me how the Capitol can continue to hold these barbaric games. They have already taken our livelihoods and our freedom – what good could possibly come of the senseless slaughter of innocent children apart from the punishment for an uprising that happened so long ago

was a war in the past between the Capitol and the Districts. Since the Capitol won, they hold the Hunger Games in honor of their victory. The story mostly focuses on a specific Hunger Games tribute, Katniss Everdeen, who chose to volunteer for her sister who was originally chosen as tribute. Katniss and District 12’s boy tribute, Peeta, are shipped off to train for the games for a few weeks in order to learn more about how the game is played and how the Capitol actually has a huge hand on who wins

Everyday, just like millions of other children, I would start school by rising and placing my right hand over my heart, as I stared at the American flag. I would simply go through the motions, giving no thought to what the flag meant to me. To some, it is a daily reminder of the fear and oppression that occurs in this country. While to others, it is an expression of their freedom. However, to me, it is a embodiment of the mindset all citizens of America, past and present, and their struggle to achieve
