Event | Who Involved | What Happened | Why Important | Jackie Robinson | Jackie Robinson, Brooklyn Dodgers, and African-Americans. | Jackie Robinson became the first African-American in U.S history play for a major league baseball team in 1947. After he retired, he joined the Civil Rights Movement, playing a huge role. | Jackie Robinson’s achievements broke down racial barriers and helped wake up America’s conscience. Within the first five years of his career, over 150 African-Americans joined the minor and major leagues. | Montgomery Bus Boycott | African-American Bus Boycotters, Rosa Parks, Supreme Court | On December 1, 1955, African-American Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on the bus for a white man and was later arrested for it. After this incident, African-Americans refused to ride the city buses in Montgomery to protest the segregated seating. | The U.S. Supreme Court ultimately ordered Montgomery to integrate its bus system, and one of the leaders of the boycott, a young pastor named Martin Luther King Jr.), emerged as a leader of the American civil rights. | Little Rock Nine | The Nine African-American Students, President Eisenhower, Orval Faubus, National Guard, 101st Airborne Division. | After the U.S Supreme Court decision after Brown v. Board of Education, all segregated schools were declared unconstitutional. So after a group of nine African American students enrolled in Little Rock Central High School, they were prevented from entering by Orval Faubus, the Governor of Arkansas. Then President Eisenhower intervened and sent the 101st Airborne Divison to force the kids in the school. | This is important because it showed the difference between the changing federal laws of segregation and opposing public opinion about those laws in the deep South (white resistance to federal laws opposing segregation). | The March on Washington | Martin

...and a masters of science in forensics from the same school. Since his time working as police officer, he also did numerous of volunteer work and some classroom instructions. In 2003, Brian later switched his mindset and became a correctional officer.  As much as he loved being a patrolman and working as a police officer, Brian said he couldn't hide his passion to help inmates. Growing up he was also told to be a policeman because his mother wanted him to follow in his father’s footsteps. He didn’t choose the job because he wanted to please his mom; he did it because it’s what’s inside him to do. He's been working as a correctional officer for approximately eight years and says that he loves his job and he never gets stressed a day in his life. His passion didn’t come easy, but it came with hard work. He had to go through series of classes and training. There were days when he felt defeated but he kept going. He now uses what he was thought as well as his knowledge to help others make a better change for their lives. I was surprised at the smiles he had during the interview. I have never seen someone so profoundly happy about his or her career. It's like the moon and the tides, take away one of the components, and the whole thing that was complete would feel inadequate. That was so refreshing to see. One thing that interest me about Brian's work was a few things; the dangers of his job. Brian stated that sometimes when he is tired, he still has to be on his P's and Q's because...

But deep down, your feelings for them are still there, you can't find it in yourself to let go, even though you know you deserve better, you want THEM to start BEING BETTER, you think about the good times you had together & don't let the bad outweigh the good?

Shared Humanity

...on the big kid side of the bay. Of course him being 11 and hanging around the bigger kids can make people do some silly things. Long story short, Jerry risked getting hurt swimming through a small, rocky tunnel to make the bigger kids like him. This relates to self-sacrifice and common experiences because many people sacrifice losing themselves to fit in with another group that may not be worth it in the end anyway. In the end the older boys’ attention didn’t even matter to Jerry, he felt like he didn’t need them anymore, he gained more confidence. Raven, from the fiction novel Vampire Kisses by Ellen Schreiber, is dating a vampire named Alexander. He leaves Raven to keep her from getting harmed by other vampires, but she risks her life to search for Alex anyway. Ravens self-sacrifice was to be with the person she loved no matter what, and that relates to a mass of fiction love stories’ common experiences. Arland D. Williams, Jr. was a passenger aboard a plane that crashed into the Potomac River on January 13, 1982. “He was of the six people to initially survive the crash” says his wikipedia.

Maybe some people just arent meant to be in our lives forever. Maybe some people are just passing through. Its like some people just come through our lives to bring us something: a gift, a blessing, a lesson we need to learn, and thats why theyre here... youll have that gift forever. - The Gift Sometimes the hardest things to say are the things that really matter Ive said what I needed to say, Ive done what I needed to do, now whatever happens to us, I guess Ill leave it up to you. I cant honestly say that I loved youat least not in that way. But I can tell you I know I could have, if you had given me the time to. I didnt say I love you to hear it back, I just wanted to tell you. I was lost. There was nobody for me to talk about everything that was troubling me.

Well son I’ll tell you, life for me ain’t been no crystal stair. Is it familiar to you? Haha well it’s from a famous poem written by Langston Hughes. And it’s true. Life is not that easy, there are many challenges to meet. Well for me, life is… a word of course. Let me tell you a story. Hi! I’m Kingston and I’m going to tell you the story of me. Before we go to the end, we start from the beginning right? Okay? Okay. There was a little boy born in the city Vigan. He was the cutest and the most… haha lol just kidding. Okay here’s the real one.

Buisness Trends

...communications into an everyday business role has created a highway for expansion and success for business around the world. Although my business does not benefit from much of this as we are off the grid I do see some things that are influenced by the worldly communications. Well working in a little general store 10 years ago was challenging when it came to hunting and fishing seasons. You would have this terrible process of filling out a large inquisitive paper in order for the customer to receive their license. You would have to look up different codes in a book to fill in and call the National Forest Service Databank to see who drew what tag. It was a time consuming, annoying ordeal for the customers who were waiting in line and the clerk doing all the work. Now there is an internet service that is installed at our location by National Wildlife Fish and Game that is equipped with a training course and takes roughly 10 minutes as every one that is entered into the system is saved for future tags and licenses. So there are no more headaches. This form of communication really has changed our business for the better as people don’t dread getting their tags and licenses. Fish and Game benefit as more people are getting their tags and licenses for fun rather than just the avid hunters and fisherman. I find that there is a lot of oral business communication at my job. As the manager and bosses run out the door they are yelling to do’s for me to accomplish throughout the day. Oral communication...

Failure In Tim O Brien's The Things They Carried

...past fears, no longer cowering in the face of adversity. In my own life, the inhibiting effects of not accepting one’s mistakes can be seen through my participation in the online game League of Legends. League of Legends, or LoL, is a highly competitive online game in which two opposing teams battle to destroy each other's nexus, a large gem-like structure at the center of each team’s base. To do so, each team must battle in hopes of destroying turrets and securing objectives. Each team has five players on it, with ten players total in a single game. Due to the team-oriented nature of the game, it is essential that players work together to ensure victory. Yet, this team-orientation is also the root of my self-defeating behavior. Determined that my play is flawless, I will consistently blame my teammates for a lost game. This leaves me feeling frustrated and makes it nearly impossible for me to improve as I cannot fix mistakes that I refuse to acknowledge. While I may understand my self-defeating behavior, I have not been successful in eliminating it. At the end of the day, in this team environment it’s all too easy to ignore your mistakes and to blame teammates for a lost game. As a result, my skill in the game has plateaued and I have been unable to improve. Furthermore, blaming my teammates for lost games results in me becoming aggressive as I feel that others are the source of my problems. This harms both parties, as my teammates would rather not be yelled at, and I become increasingly...

Remembered Event

...especially the players must have the sportsmanship just like the other sports. E-sports also differ from normal game online with regard to the organization. It was held as a real competition sport and the prize for the champion can reach to millions dollars. One well-known e-sports game I played is LOL- League of Legends. In this game, ten people were divided equally into two teams. All you need to do is cooperate with your allies, find a properly strategy, kill the enemies and finally, destroyed the tower’s rivals to achieve the victory. Nevertheless, the most important thing which I like about LOL is that it brings me many kinds of feelings such as disappointment, happiness, excitement… notably the surprise. Then one day, all of these feelings happened to me in the way I had never expected. There was a normal Sunday when I had to meet my friend at a gaming center at 8:00 o’clock. Unfortunately, I was still at home because in the previous night, there was a fantastic movie on TV and I went to bed late and forgot to set the alarm. I got dressed as quick as I could and rushed to the rendezvous. When I got there the time was 10:00. “Oh god, I am late for 2 hours, what the…” I though. My friend-Minh was sitting in the corner. I slowly came to him, sat down, turned on the computer and said: “I am really sorry dude”. He glanced at me and knitted his brows. I could see the depression on his face but he...
