...more livable if we have many friends.Getting a friend is easy and you can choose someone who can be your friend,but getting a best friend is too difficult to find.Best friend is different from a friend in every way.Because she/he is not only our friend but also she/he is our mirror.We share our private problems with them. Everyone has a best friend in their life. They can be from his/her school or they can be neighbour.But my best friend is a bit different from them.My mum is my best friend.In my short eighteen years I realized that friends come and go but there is just one person who has always stayed by my side through and thin is my mom.Whatever I do,she always be by my side and love me jus the same as before.I know,I can always trust my mom in my whole life.She has lived with me since I was born and she will stay with me forever.

...In The Silver Star by Jeannette Walls, Liz is an exceptionally intelligent and independent child for someone her age, of only fifteen years old. Because of her extreme responsibility and compassion for those around her, she is a great role model for Bean, her little sister. Other than being a role model, Liz's main purpose is to serve as the maternal figure for Bean since their birth mother leaves for weeks at a time, and is not around to support them. Liz shows her role by always taking care of Bean when their mom decides to leave. To begin, Liz achieved her maternal role to Bean, by getting a job of her own, "Liz had been doing some babysitting, but after Mom had been gone a week, she decided to take on extra work, and I got a job delivering Grit, a newspaper with useful stories..." (Walls 15). Liz knows that if she is not independent and got a job then there was no way that her and Bean could survive without their mother. Also it was her idea to leave for Byler so that the bandersnatchers, which is the girls word for the police, would not be able to take them away to Child Protective Services. Liz always knew what to do in these kind of situations, as we are told by Bean, which makes Liz very dependable. Also, Liz is remarkably intelligent, which we know because she is always complimented by teachers, parents and other adults about how outstanding she is. But not only is Liz considered to be smart in school, or "book smart", she also knows how to deal with the...

...Kelly 1 Kwanesha Kelly Emily Bailey HUM 2211-CRN 20606 7/7/14 Influences of Mesopotamia The land between the two rivers known as, “Mesopotamia" contained many civilizations that were successful and on the other hand, not so well. Around 3500 B.C.E the first of Mesopotamia's civilization, "Sumer" rose and had quite many contributions and advancements that would affect the modern world today. Mesopotamia had many first creations that we now use today such as wheeled vehicles, plows, potter's wheel, the mathematic system, and an advanced writing system. Another aspect of influence were the rulers of Mesopotamia and its governing system. Also how the social order was set up which contributed of how the modern day government handles situation. The last influence that I believe to be heavily pressured is Mesopotamia's religion, which is the oldest religion recorded. All in all, many of these contributions of Mesopotamia made the world of what it is today. Mesopotamia had a variety of inventions that were created such as, "wheeled vehicles". The earliest form of wheels were placed underneath heavy objects to get to places in a quicker way. This was the beginning of vehicles which we use today and are much more advanced. Clay, being the most abundant material during this time set off many creations of sculpture. Kelly 2 Sumer being the first culture to use art, were also capable of using pottery wheels. This is beneficial by being able to have the skills to create cups...

...IL Divo Live in Barcelona Charliena Diego Professor Nancy Barlar HUM 11- World Cultures 1 Dec 18, 2012 IL Divo Live in Barcelona I was not able to attend this concert in person, but I did watch it on youtube.com on December 18, 2012 at 12:46 pm on a Tuesday afternoon. I sat and watched it by myself in my family room, because my children and husband do not care for this kind of music as I do. The concert was with IL Divo, they are four men named David Miller, Sebastien Izambard, Carlos Marin, and Urs Buhler, and they are dressed in black suits when they come out on stage. The concert was live in Barcelona on April 3, 2009 and the performance was at the Palau Sant Jordi. IL Divo is surrounded by an operatic quartet that plays the music beautifully. My initial reaction about this concert/place is what a magnificent place the Palau Sant Jordi is, it was built in the year 1990 in Barcelona, Spain. I truly wish that I could go and see these four beautiful men sing their hearts out, I would be in awe over how big and beautiful these guy’s voices truly are and I bet in person it would be an amazing gift to hear. The song that IL Divo sang is one of my all time favorite songs from Simon & Garfunkel is/was Bridge over trouble waters. Un- break my Heart originally sung by Toni Braxton who sang it in 1993 and she sounded great when she sang it, but when IL Divo sang this song they blew my mind away with the way their voices are so rich and deep it’s like floating in chocolate...

...Introduction In this essay, I am going to explain one definition of theology together with a definition from a few great theologians. Everyone has their own thoughts on what theology means. We all do theology; we don’t learn it or find it in a book or on television or at Church on a Sunday. Theology is something we all can do. What is Theology? Some people would define theology as the study of God but they are wrong. God is a spiritual being who knows all about us, what we are doing and what we are thinking. In my opinion, it is very difficult to study something that you can’t see. The wind blows but you can’t see it but you can see the trees swaying and the sea crashing against the rocks. This is the action of the wind even though it is invisible. God is like this. Even though God cannot be seen, God is portrayed in the beauty of God’s creation. Theology means to talk about God. It comes from the Greek Theos meaning God and Logos meaning word or talk. It doesn’t just mean theologians talking about God or ministers and priests talking about God or God talking about God; it means that every individual can talk about God. Indirectly, everyone has their own experience of God. Everyone has an understanding about theology and their different experiences of God and may have something to offer within their communities. Doing one’s own theology is far better than learning it. Many questions are asked when talking about...

Westley displays courage by leaving his troubles to pursue happiness. After years of taking orders and being treated like a slave on the farm he lived, by the girl he loved, Westley built up strength to go out to America. Even though he had to leave his true love behind, he went to “Find his fortune.” (page i dont know chapter one binCt) Instead of doing things for other people, he did something solely for himself, for his own good. Westley would never let anything stand in the way of what makes him truely happy, not even death. When Prince Humperdink killed him for wanting Buttercup, Westley only grew more couragous, stopping at nothing to get his happiness, Buttercup back to him. Westley always knew what was right for him and what made him be the best he could be. No matter what was blocking the path, he always found a way.

...Digital Media: A Better Way to Learn Educators and parents have legitimate concerns about the effects of the Digital Age on learning. Digital media has changed dramatically since the development of the Internet and improvement of wireless technology. John Palfrey, Professor of Law and Urs Gasser, Executive Director of the Berkman Center for Internet and Society, both employed by the prestigious Harvard Law School, have written about how the world has been reshaped because of this new digital world in Born Digital. They found that this period “is the most rapid period of technological transformation ever, at least, when it comes to information” (3). This transformation of digital media over the last twenty-five years and the introduction of tools like the iPad create a clutter of information that threaten the ability to think deeply and concentrate, which has made the current educational system obsolete and ineffective. This same technology can be utilized to create the school of the future, by improving learning in the Digital Age. Digital natives, ”born after 1980,” do not know the world without the Internet, cell phones, computers, tablets and everything else that networked digital technology has provided (Palfrey 1). They “study, work, write and interact with each other in ways that are very different from the ways” their parents and grandparents grew up. (Palfrey 2). Palfrey and Gasser found that digital natives are comfortable with this new technology and experts...
