...In the past, I had a challenge where I had to get my grades up in weeks. To overcome this, I had to give up all the fun activities I had plan with my friends and family, I also had to do extra work to make up for the work I did not complete in class. It was a Friday afternoon, I was in my English class when the classrooms phone began to ring. As I was completing my work, the teacher called my name saying,”Chenelle pack your things you're going home.” When i was walking out the room I started to remember that it was my dad’s birthday. As I approached the front office, my father did not look so happy, then he said, “Look at your report card and tell me what you see. “Before I could get a word out i was grounded just like that. A few days had gone by and my weekend was dead. The night before school I called my friends to set up a meeting at lunch. It was 12:45pm that is the time for lunch. My friends and I were walking to the table that we sit at every day .They knew that something was wrong with me because I did not talk or eat my food. As lunch was about to be over I had spoken like a ghost coming out of nowhere I said,” I have something very important to tell you and if you don’t like it than we can no longer be friends.” All of them gathered around me like a pack of dogs eating food. I said, “The grades that I have now is not acceptable, so in that case I will not be going out to the movies or the mall any time soon, so I’m saying...

...information that I have learned about diversity in the United States is that it is ever changing. I have taken the time to look at the person and not what background or ethnicity they are from. I see people for what they are as being human and having real feelings. Everyone is different and I have learned that it takes time to understand people who are different. In the past I would not and did not deal with people who were different as far as having too thick of an accent and I would dismiss them and not attempt to try and understand what they were speaking about. I didn’t have any patience with anyone that I didn’t see that fit into the mold so to speak. As I have gotten older and traveled I was able to see that all people have the same issues whether it is with jobs, housing and children. We all want the same things for our families. I have even gotten to the point to educate myself of their backgrounds and traditions. I have a coworker is Muslim and I have familiarized myself with the customs and traditions so that I can better understand. I have taken the time to slow down and not treat people poorly because they may speak differently form me. I have also taken the time to be more respectful of people who are different and have different backgrounds. I am constantly learning something new about my background and heritage. I am multiracial native American, white and black. I have been taught by my parents to be proud of who I am as a person not what I am. I have knowledge...

...pain with you), but because it is so personal to my daily life. Someone asked me why I let the events in Iraq bother me. I’ll tell you why. Every day I interact with guys who lost men they loved dearly, who struggle every single day with memories, horrific flashbacks, anxiety, guilt, brokenness, anger. Men who are afraid to sleep because of the terror that waits to ensnare them when they let their guard down. Men who carry a weight on their hearts that comes from being forced to kill parts of themselves in order to do what combat demanded they do. Men who stared death in the face day after day, deployment after deployment, who made decisions that can’t be undone. Men who died inside themselves to keep their brothers alive and must live with the fact that they couldn’t save everyone. Men who were good at what they did. And did the best they could. If you’re reading this, you most likely are one of these men. You know what I’m talking about. The world doesn’t see the man you were in combat. They have no idea they are in the presence of some of the highest caliber and highest tested human beings on earth. They see PTSD, and stumble over a “mental illness”. They see the guy working checkout at Walmart with a little pin that says “proud to be a veteran” and scowl at him for taking too long to move their groceries past a scanner. They see an overweight guy with a beard at the bar who doesn’t look like he has it all together and dismiss him without a second thought. They see a thin wiry...

...something that you find it hard to define but we will attempt to do so. The majority of the people do not know what it is like to really be in the depths of the spirit. If we have an idea of what the spirit realm is like it is possible to get motivated by it. So our purpose is to share some experiences from the spirit realm that could make you desire to spend more time with God in order to want to move into that realm. II Cor. 12:1-4 I must boast; there is nothing to be gained by it, but I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord. I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven - whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows. And I know that this man was caught up into Paradise - whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows - and he heard things that that cannot be told, which man may not utter. Now Paul was educated and he would not be short of words as far as the average man is concerned. So you could imagine the impact of what he is saying. This is not an ordinary man who lacks the vocabulary. Paul was brought up at Gamaliel's feet. He is one of the most highly educated people in his days. And for him to make a statement that he has been in the spirit realm, and that when he came back he could not describe what it was like, imagine the impact of that. It was just like a Noble prize scientist who is on the top echelon of intellectual ability coming back from the spirit realm and say I could...

...What does art mean to me? When I think of art, my culture is the first thing that comes to mind. I see our awesome designs, our baskets that hold g’ima:w (medicine) and prayers. I think of carving hazel sticks for our stick games. My people have been playing this game since the beginning of time. I think of our creation stories, and all of the pictures we have telling them. There is just so much that comes to mind, being that our whole essence is derived from art. As a Hupa tribal member, my whole life has been centered on art. From the way we dance to the way we make baskets. Art is the way we express our feelings, our surroundings, and our history. That is why we are so emotionally attached to our regalia. From when it‘s started to when it’s finished. Every single element stands for a prayer or medicine, so when the regalia is worn in ceremony, the prayers and medicine contribute to the dance. Then there are our stories, we use art to tell stories, and forever have recorded our history this way. Many cultures around the world use art to express emotions, record history, or to just enhance the communities. I consider myself an artist. I find art to be relaxing and it is one thing I am most comfortable with. It just comes naturally to me. If I could draw this paper on what I believe art to be, I could whip it out like nothing. It would look like a world full of prospects and it would symbolize everything I am trying to say in one picture, but unluckily, I have to use words...

You’re a shinigami for crying out loud, and no one else can see you. They’ll think I’m insane if I talk to you”, Light replied. Ryuk, a Shinigami/Death God. He has a monstrous yet a bit human like appearance, has big red eyes, scary face and huge hidden black wings. “Oh yeah, that lady detective is fast and quite smart to have been able to think that, Hyuk Hyuk”, Ryuk said while chuckling. “To be honest, it was out of my expectation that she was THAT smart”, Light said irritated. “Hyuk Hyuk, guess Light can be outsmarted by a girl sometimes”, Ryuk said. “Hmph”, Light replied. General POV “Phew, finally done with the groceries. Good thing I’m not needed in the case yet, I can enjoy a day off-like day”, I said as I went out the grocery store with a bunch of plastic bags in both of my arms.

...What if I told you Jesus can do abolish religion. What if I told you voting republican wasn’t really his mission. What if I told you republicans doesn't automatically mean Christian and just because you call some people blind doesn't automatically give you vision. I mean if religion is so great why has it started so many wars? Why does it build huge churches but fails to feed the poor? Tells single moms God doesn’t love them if they’ve ever ha a divorce. But in the Old Testament God actually calls religious people whores. Religion might preach grace but another thing they practice is to ridicule Gods people, they did it to John the Baptist they can’t fix their problems and so they just mask it not realizing religion is like spraying perfume on a casket. See the problem with religion is that it never gets to the core it’s just behavior modification like a long list of chores like let's dress up the outside so it can look nice and clean but it’s funny that’s what the used to do with mummies while corpses rot underneath. I am not judging I’m just saying quite putting on a fake look. Cause there is a problem if people only know your Christian by your Facebook. I mean in every other aspect of life you know that logics is unworthy It’s like saying you play for the Lakers just because you bought a Jersey. See this was me too but no one seemed to be on to me, acting like a church kid while addicted to pornography. See on Sunday I go to church but Saturday getting faded acting as...

Screenshots will be included throughout this assignment which will give a clear outlook on the levels of detail that are included in terms of an e-commerce strategy. The areas I will be focusing on is as followed: how easy it is to use for the user or the actual customers’ ability to interact with the website and the features it has to offer. I will also be looking at the display of products on the e – commerce website along with payment systems and personal details entry etc. in conclusion to my assignment I will finish it by including some suggestions that around the clock can take note of whether they be good or bad points. These will be based off reviews from the other e – commerce websites I will be analysing. Ease of Use On-site search When using an e-commerce website it is very important that the user is able to find the item they are looking for in just a few steps.

In this video, what I’m going to do is I’m going to go over a copy-and-paste campaign that has made me tens of thousands of dollars this year 2012. It’s in a niche that I was not very familiar with – fashion. I’m sure everyone watching this video right now, you’ve seen all sorts of these daily deal sites like Groupon and LivingSocial, etc. coming out. One big thing is daily deal fashion sites. This site, BeyondTheRack.com, is a daily deal fashion site. When I send people to this website right here through my own ads on any social network – PlentyofFish, Facebook, Pinterest or whatever – and they fill out a couple of fields and hit SEE TODAY’S DEALS, boom!

...They can be incredibly unpredictable. The only method to explain anything to a child that has worked for me has been in measuring out the knowledge of the child on the subject, and guiding them to conclusions with facts and questions. The majority of the questions that could be asked, like “What do you see here?” and “How can you tell?” will have already been covered in the exposition of the images, so all that remains is reinforcement of the knowledge and patience for an opportunity in the future to expose them to it again.
Part 3: How would Plato explain the concept of a cat using Forms?
Plato would surely begin, especially with a younger mind foreign to his philosophies, by explaining the concept of a Form. He would take a nearby object, say a stone in the street, and hold it to the child. I imagine the Dialogue would proceed as follows.

...This movie/book would have to be one of the greatest I have seen/read.During the movie/book there are sames and differences throughout the whole thing. Some make the thing better others just want to make you stick to other parts. Throughout both the movie and the DVD of “A Christmas Carol” we are following Mr.Scrooge. Out of the two though the movie would have to be my favorite. The movie consists of us following Mr.Scrooge through his past, present, and future of Christmas. This famous story has people typing how the movie plays out, but is the story even worth the time when the movie shows emotion, and during the book people talk, but do the people in the movie not matter? They are in a movie that shows picture for a reason, you know? During the movie “A Christmas Carol” we go on a journey with Mr.Scrooge though his past, present, and future of “his” Christmas. When the movie starts to play it takes us all around the present day scene of Christmas in a town. As we go through the town we see kids happy, carolers singing, adults chatting, and then we get to grumpy Mr.Scrooge. If we have read the story before we know very well that you can’t see...
