As stated in a magazine, “Drivers ages 16 to 19 are four times more than likely than older drivers to crash” (Brophy). This quote shows that teen drivers are involved in more traffic accidents then older drivers.

could almost swear that I was there right at that moment. It's as if my body can almost taste the sweet air, feel the cold, wet breeze on my skin, and recall the scent of the pine trees towering above our heads. Hiking in Payson, Arizona, after a snow storm is one of the best places I have ever visited in order to collect one of these memories. Payson is a great place to take the family dog hiking, but also you will be able to appreciate the beautiful landscape Payson has to offer, with it being

My American Experience Growing up in Ghana, I had heard a lot of things about the U.S. This was a country I had always wanted to visit; my prayer was answered when I got the opportunity to travel there.

As you stand at the top of a run and look down over the mountain; with twisting and turning slopes, you feel at peace and connected with nature. This is what skiing can do for you; however, it hasn’t always been a way to get out and enjoy the mountain air. As a matter of fact, skiing used to be mainly for survival. Scientists have found rock art drawn by ancient civilizations in 8000 B.C. that depict people skiing. Back in those days, it was the Scandinavians, Russians, and Altay Mountain folk that

Methodology There were three major steps to our research. We gathered literary sources on climactic trends, spoke to stakeholders, and then created maps to show our findings. As a result of the fact Smith College does not have a plan on how to prepare in response to changes in climate, and that most data which is readily available to the public focuses on large scale climate change information, the project focused on presenting information specific to Smith College in a way which would be accessible

I snapped back into reality. I noticed that it had begun to snow, and man was it snowing hard. Shaking, my head, in disbelief, I walked into the kitchen to grab the broom. Stopping at the closet, I grabbed my coat and gloves. I thought to myself that this is could get real ugly. Carefully I opened the door, uncertain

Imagine growing up in a small, backwards town in North Carolina with a population smaller than that of your average university campus and only one movie theater. Now imagine that with a lot more horse pastures. You’ve just imagined pretty much my entire childhood in Indian Trail, North Carolina, congratulations. That may sound like a fairly negative description, but I assure you I loved every minute of it. I loved our single ice cream store, Bruster’s, and the free chocolate kiddie-cones the employees
