Learn The Hard Way Learn it the hard way. That is the way I learned the old adage “no pain, no gain”. It was my first dirt bike race. My heart had been pounding like a drum in a high school band for three days before the race. The race was in the middle of nowhere in Tucson, Az. I arrived on a Friday, my race was on Saturday. It was sunny out, but there was a slight breeze blowing the tent around, making it hard to set up. Friday evening was the practice run, where all the riders got the chance
Everyone belongs to many different communities and/or groups defined by (among other things) shared geography, religion, ethnicity, income, cuisine, interest, race, ideology, or intellectual heritage. Choose one of the communities to which you belong, and describe that community and your place within it. 250 words Restlessly I glanced around trying to focus on the task at hand, anticipating the bang of the gun.

It was a cold, dark morning when the phone rang. It was boisterously loud and the clock read six o'clock. The deafening noise jolted us again, and there was only one way to make it stop. Chris picked up the phone and in a tired, drowsy voice, answered, "Hello." "Wake up call," I could hear Coach on the other end of the line. "Wake everyone else up in the room and the bus will leave at seven." "Okay," and with that, Chris hung up the telephone. I could hear him bury his head back into his pillow
Saturday Saturday. The first day of the weekend, the first day of freedom at the end of every week at school. Saturday was always a day of great anticipation for me during my younger years. It signified not only the beginning of a weekend away from the rigours of Primary school and learning my times tables, but also my first real social experiences. Saturday was ‘Club Day’. At around the age of 8 or 9, my Mum decided that I needed to get out into the real world and get a taste of ‘Saturday

10 miles per hour above the posted speed limit in a residential area. I estimated he was going about 36 miles per hour when the posted speed limit was actually 25 miles per hour. After running his license plate, he had no previous violations, no records for a stolen car, and he had valid registration and emissions for the vehicle.

together electronically via a protocol (common language) so the computers can communicate and share resources. This network improves the day-to-day life by adding value and usefulness to the computers.

is, we see it every day either passing restaurants on our way home, watching our friends consume it at a record pace or when we are bombarded by commercials about the golden arches or freaky fast delivery. Fast food businesses have successfully made fattening food readily available at all hours of the day, which has made consumers lazy and taking the path of least resistance - the drive-thru!

as possible on streets because it could lead consumers to an In-N-Out store, and then the sign would say just a little bit far to In-N-Out Burger. That means the store only has 2.5 Miles.

The data was used on all levels, from making instantaneous decisions at the store level such as preparing food that hadn’t been ordered yet from prediction’s based on historical sales and current length of drive thru wait to deciding future promotions and calculating franchise fees at the corporate level. It was here that I first truly learned
methods of addressing the healthcare concerns of today. I focused on three ways to address this issue. The first would it be to make electronic records universal.

Greatness Philip Rivers is undoubtedly a man with extreme talent. An NFL quarterback who is underestimated and underrated.
