  • Alex Pacquette Research Paper

    “I was always a trouble maker in school and some of my teachers had my mother’s phone number on speed dial.” It is unbelievable that this statement was made by this quiet guy in front of me. His name is Alex Paquette. Alex was born in Los Angeles and he lived in Glendora for a few years. When he was five years old, his whole family moved out to Walnut Creek because his mother got a job in San Francisco. Moving from a big city to a relatively smaller town might seem like a big thing to a five-year-old child, but he felt glad instead as he no longer had to worry about the earthquakes. It was a regular morning, his house started shaking without any warning while everyone was still on bed. In the next second, he could hear that everything was falling off the shelves and his bunk bed was swaying. Luckily, they managed to rush out the house in time and no one was injured. However, most of their belongings had broken. This is the most serious earthquake Alex had experienced and probably the closest moment between life and death in his life so far.

Well taking a picture with good light or simply looking for something in the dark with a source of light was possible with the help of Henry Bessemer. The steel he made is used in wires and we use wire for light so your glowing pictures wouldn't be possible without Henry Bessemer. We all love taking pictures for our Instagram and to have that amazing feed. Without light most of our pictures would be dim and boring.Am I right? Before Bessemer made steel we used cast iron and wrought iron. That material is way to heavy to make wires so that wouldn't help with our lighting issues.We used wrought iron sort of like a heavy substitute for

    Philippe Petit changed numerous peoples’ thoughts about the Twin Towers when he performed his high wire walk between them in 1974. Before Philippe Petit walked the high wire between the Twin Towers in 1974, people weren’t certain how they felt about the construction of the World Trade Center. After Philippe performed, people began to warm up to the idea of the towers. Philippe Petit walked the high wire between the Twin Towers on August 7, 1974. This event prompted Andrew McMahon to write the song “Platform Fire” about this event for his band, Jack’s Mannequin. This song was not a hit for the band; however, fans of Jack’s Mannequin seem to have a special place in their heart for it.

A year after making that rice pudding, Lenotre's father became ill and he was forced into finding a real profession in pastry, which he decisively chose over cabinetmaking (G. Lenotre 7)...

    Most chefs’ or home cooks finish high school in the hope of getting in to a culinary institute where it is somewhat competitive to get in. Some might attend a community college which can also be competitive. Some without the finance or time for school, but who still have the passion for cooking, get their G.E.D. and try for an apprenticeship. In hope to gain quicker experience, they try to learn everything they can from their mentor on the job, instead of college, and could become rather successful.
