One Event Changed Everything
“Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results.” -Anon. After living in a place I loved for eleven years, I did not think that I would be able to have the same feelings or emotions towards another place. I thought everything I had was where I had been for years, but I was wrong. If you go into something new with a good attitude and know that there is always something else out there, then it works out for the best. Moving to Reno, Nevada from Glendale, Arizona defines me and is significant to my life because it made me grow as a person and it made me who I am today.
In the middle of junior year, my parents told me that we were moving to Reno for my dad’s new job. I said, “Okay, I will be living with Andri then, so I can graduate from Mountain Ridge?” Boy was I wrong. I thought that since I only had a year and a half left of school before graduating that they would let me stay at my brother and sister-in-law’s house so I could graduate with my friends. They had other plans for me. They decided that I should go with them so I could make new friends and start a new life, while keeping my friends from Arizona at the same time. So I went with it. I thought that maybe the change would be good for me. I also thought that I would have a chance at living my dream of becoming a high school cheerleader; something I did not get to pursue at my old high school because of the competition. So I went into the move with...

...great time anyway. After competition, the season was coming to an end. We had a couple of basketball games to go and then my dream would be over. The friends I met and the experiences I shared with them are never going to be forgotten. Graduation was next; a time when I would have to say goodbye to everyone that I had become close to.
I had a blast the year and a half I spent in Reno. Like I said before, it was a life changing event that changed me for the better, made me the person I am today, and it defines me. I am a spirited, outgoing, athletic, strong, and a willing person. All of these characteristics I discovered about myself after moving away from the place and the friends I thought I would never be able to leave. There are millions of people and places out there, all you need to do is be willing to get out there and try something new.
A characteristic property can help identify a substance. A characteristic property will never change even when the volume of a substance is varied. A characteristic property also does not change when a substance changes state in matter. A physical property cannot identify a substance. A physical property will change when the volume of a substance is varied. It can also change when the substance changes state in matter. For example, if the volume and mass of a substance changes then the physical appearance will also change. However, the density, which is a characteristic property, will not change at all. The boiling point of a substance is the temperature that a substance changes from a liquid to a gas. The boiling point of a substance is a characteristic property because the boiling point of a substance will never change even when the volume and mass changes. The only thing that will change is the time that it takes to reach that temperature. If the mass and volume of the substance is small, then it will take a small amount of time for the substance to reach the temperature. However if the mass and volume of the substance is larger, then it will take a longer time to reach the temperature. The purpose of this lab was to see if when the volume of a substance changes so does the boiling point.
It 's the day before my last high school varsity basketball game as a senior… Wow four years went by this fast who would have imagined this day would have came. All day I was thinking about the season ending. This game meant everything to me, it wasn 't any ordinary game. It 's a section game! Win or go home.. With it being my last high school game I wanted to close the chapter knowing I gave it my all. Practice was probably the most intense it 's ever been for me. Emotions were flaring and we were all on the grind.
In the past, the system of monetary policy is based on the Classical Gold Standard. In the article, “Review of: European monetary union: Lessons from the classical gold standard”, Stanley W stated how the gold standard lasted from the periods of 1880 to 1913. In the beginning, central banks used interest rates to drive short term capital inflows, which avoided gold movements and made sure that the prices adjust relatively. However, this adjustment process didn’t work. The author then argued that long term international capital flows, migration, and differences in tariff barriers, also known as the “Three Pillars of the Classical Gold Standard”, contributes to the reason why developing countries were able to maintain their current account deficits until they could face the competition with the modernized countries. However, in accordance to the article “Interest rate interactions in the classical gold standard, 1880-1914: Was there any monetary independence?” by Bordo and Macdonald, the Classical Gold Standard is not a sustainable monetary system because it required some countries to be independent when monetary policy operates. This is especially conflicting in the modern day structure in which central banks need to use a targeting zone to achieve their purpose. In the modern era, quantitative easing (QE) is an unconventional type of monetary policy used by the Federal Reserve to respond to the deep recession. According to the article “Quantitative easing and Proposals for Reform of Monetary Policy Operations: by authors Scott and L.Randall, the impact of conducting QE on interest rates is lower long term yields when compared to the short term ones. As noted by authors Bora, Omar and Georges in their article “Financial Crisis and...
In 2007, the financial crisis broke out and damaged many countries’ economies across the globe. Central banks around the world took actions to react with a series of monetary policy. Many central banks like European central bank(ECB), Federal Reserve (FED) lowered their interest rate to around zero in 2009. Because of the constraint of Zero Lower Bound(ZLB), the conventional monetary policy(CMP) is no longer efficient. Therefore, the conventional monetary policy instrument that focus on a short run interest rate converting into concentrate on the adjustment of central’s balance sheet, which is the unconventional monetary policy(UMP). ECB and FED have implemented unconventional policy such as purchasing the government debts and lowering the requirement of loan collateral.
In an economy recently plagued with housing market crashes and financial crisis, we can easily see the vital functions that a monetary policy has on anticipating and preventing instability in our economy. Understanding how monetary policy works and how it’s affected by either rules or discretion is crucial, and all aspects must be taken into account to establish the most effective choice for our economy.
... and I started to realize some of the good effects that moving has had. I now understand that this experience has changed me in positive ways as well. Soon I would have friends in different places in the world that I can visit. I would have many places where I could go and feel like home. Most importantly, I would learn that one can adapt to every town and its people and that friends can be made everywhere. Every place has its conveniences and its problems. Every town has its generous and heartless citizens.
...ate that obese children and adolescents are subjected to social rejection, discrimination and negative stereotyping and such experiences could be expected to lead to negative consequences in terms of self-image, self-esteem and mood. More people would benefit from the obesity classification being discontinued. It is far less likely that these labels with serve as positive motivation for a healthier lifestyle. If we stopped labeling children and overweight and obese while still applying positive reinforcement toward physical wellness the outcome would yield a larger quantity of youth willing to develop healthy habits. With a weakened level of self-esteem, that willingness and motivation will not exist. The negative connotations associated with obesity labeling are damaging to youth and will make it difficult for them to efficiently develop into adulthood.
Monetary policy is said to be expansionary when it increases the total supply of money in the economy more rapidly than usual. But it can also be termed as contractionary if it expands the overall money supply in a slower rate or shrink it. The price at which money can be borrowed at is usually referred to as the economy’s interest rates. The main aims of monetary policies are: control inflation, control economic growth, unemployment and the exchange rates.
The term Monetary policy refers to the method through which a country’s monetary authority, such as the Federal Reserve or the Bank of England control money supply for the aim of promoting economic stability and growth and is primarily achieved by the targeting of various interest rates. Monetary policy may be either contractionary or expansionary whereby a contractionary policy reduces the money supply, reduces the rate at which money is supplied or sets about an increase in interest rates. Expansionary policies on the other hand increase the supply of money or lower the interest rates. Interest rates may also be referred to as tight if their aim is to reduce inflation; neutral, if their aim is neither inflation reduction nor growth stimulation; or, accommodative, if aimed at stimulating growth. Monetary policies have a great impact on the economic stability of a country and if not well formulated, may lead to economic calamities (Reinhart & Rogoff, 2013). The current monetary policy of the United States Federal Reserve while being accommodative and expansionary so as to stimulate growth after the 2008 recession, will lead to an economic pitfall if maintained in its current state. This paper will examine this current policy, its strengths and weaknesses as well as recommendations that will ensure economic stability.

Aplastic Anemia is a form of cancer that affects the bone marrow. Bone marrow is a soft tissue that is located on the inside of larger bones. This disease I rare and is not restricted for any gender. Aplastic Anemia occurs when the bone marrow stops producing enough red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets for the body. Platelets are another form of cell that do not contain a nucleues. They circulate in the blood and keep us from bleeding. When the marrow produces these cells, the cells are normal in the way they function, but the marrow does not produce enough of the cells in order for the body to function properly. The word Aplastic actually means “a failure in development”.This disease was first discouvered in 1888 by Dr. Paul Ehrilch. He discouvered this disease after he studied a case where a preganant women died of bone marrow failure. In 1904 this condition was classified as Aplastic Anemia. The causes of this disease are un known. Risk factors of this condition tthat can increase your chnace of Aplastic anemai include exposure to envoirnmental toxins, paint , oil and coal emmsiosns, industrial soilvents, certain viruses or medications, medications used to treat rheumatoid arthiritis,bone marrow diseases and preganancy. This disease can be inhearited or caused by envoirnmental substances. When Aplastic anemia is heriditary it is less comon. Heriditary Anemia is caused by the genes being passed down from parent to child. People who have heriditary anemia have other development or genetic abberants. Faconi is the name used when aplastic Anemia is herediatary. Children with abnormal chromosomes are likely to inherit this condition. One who has herediatary Aplastic Anemia will have abnormalities in...
Even through some obese and overweight people are very popular amongst their peers awhile at the same time they feel good about themselves with plenty of confidence. Those who are obese are likely to have low self-esteem in comparison their thinner peers. The poor self-esteem can transform to lack of self-confidence, feeling of shame about one’s body consequently leading to an overall poor performance in most aspects of life (Williams 2014). For instance, children who are overweight might have difficulties in their day to day lives in school due to bullying and insults they receive about their weight. These students might be called names while some of their formers friends might avoid them to evade being associated with these kinds of individuals (Schafer 2011). Therefore, those who are obese often display poor social skills in comparison to their peers who have healthy weights. The poor skills are often due to stigmatization which consequently leads to self-esteem problems and eventually a feeling of social isolation (Sahoo 2015). Studies have established that obese individuals are often more dissatisfied with their body shapes and weight in comparison to their peers who have natural rights or who appear to be thinner (Wilson
