Are humans the products of nature, or are they products of the way that they are nurtured? Do human genes dictate the kind of person that one becomes? These are some of the questions that have continued to plague humanity. These questions have given psychologists, philosophers and scientists’ material in which to work with. Willa Cather in her short story Paul’s Case tries to answer some of these questions in a skillful way. However, she does not offer a clear resolution; this is according to the interpretations given by her critics.
“Registered nurses treat patients and help prevent disease, educate patients and the public about various medical conditions and health issues, and provide advice and emotional support to patients’ family members both physically and mentally.”(Registered). It is important for the individual going into this occupation to search out the pros and cons of the different areas of nursing. Sometimes gender plays a part in choosing the specific area of an RN. For instance, the strength of males is needed in areas of physical therapy. While the gentle attributes of women are needed in the care of babies. “A nurse must like people and want to help them, and must also have self-reliance and good judgment, patience, honesty, responsibility, and ability to work easily with others.”(Jacobi). The occupation of a registered nurse includes many advantages such as having the ability to assist your family in medical needs, the salary is attractive and above the average scale, and it offers great job security.
Commonly, vehicular collisions are considered a negative occurrence. Dave Eggers hints towards this mindset in his short story Accident. Plotted in the middle of an intersection in 2005, the story commences with the main character driving his automobile through the intersection and striking an older Camaro. The three teenagers in the Camaro are fine, but the main character notices all the damage he has done to their vehicle and he fears an unpleasant encounter with them. Dave Eggers uses irony throughout the situation to illustrate the main character’s relief. The characters’ involvement with the collision emphasizes Egger’s theme that no matter how unfortunate an incident, positivity can result.
It takes a great deal of skill to race in the rain, and Denny manages his way through the track as if there is no rain at all. Enzo is set up in front of the TV, and Denny plays one of his racing tapes. As they watch, Enzo is entranced by Denny’s smooth maneuvering. He also describes Denny as good as Ayrton Senna, a World Champion racer. Enzo describes Denny’s race:
It’s race day and life in the pit crew is like being a goalie, 99% boredom and 1% panic, working 12 hours a day every day. When I arrived at LOWES motor speedway in North Carolina, everyone was in this 99% boredom phase, or their “down time”. It’s 7 a.m. and the cars of each team sit in the one story tin garage building with unfinished concrete floors looking almost like it was temporary, halfway equipped for the upcoming race and surrounded by their respective crewmembers. As I walk through the inside of this garage, big enough for twenty-five cars but filled with about fifty cars, the walking paths are carved through the clutter of race cars, roll-a-ways and loose parts. It is right to say that it is crowded. The U.S. Border Patrols pit crew had to prepare for any possible mishaps on the track. Working on and off throughout the day wanting the car to be as safe as possible but also try to exceed the natural laws of physics.
...e to be updated to consider who stopped first and has enough time passed to try and go across the intersection. In the event that all 4 cars at the intersection are self-driving cars, then it may be easier to handle this situation because the cars could have the ability to communicate with each other and decide faster.

Going into the first race we had not expected much since Susan and I had never run this type of race. There were so many crucial things that we had to remember. It wasn't just to get out of the blocks and burn up the track; there was a baton involved, a certain amount of steps to take, and even a certain way to hold the baton.
Automobile racing is a thrilling career because you race with no limits to be the fastest. You get to drive like no tomorrow in capable, or tuned, cars. In a normal car on the normal road, you're limited by laws and capabilities of your car, but on the track, you are free to step on the gas. At the end of each event, you get money from the event, and sponsors if any. If you rank higher in position of the event, you get even more money and
Racing provides means of symbolically interacting with and/or dominating technology that seems to overwhelm man elsewhere. (Barendse pg 15)
