program like the Challengers are brave, dedicated, good, admirable people, serving and helping us advance to the future. The Challengers that died, had great courage to go on the spaceship knowing all the possible dangers,as Reagan put it, “ And perhaps we’ve forgotten the courage it took for the crew of the shuttle… But we feel the loss, and we’re thinking about you so very much. Your loved ones were daring, brave and they had that special grace, the special spirit that says, ‘ Give me a challenge, and
the president at the time, Ronald Reagan. Oddly, on the morning of January 28th, Ronald Reagans State of the Union address was to be delivered, but plans had quickly changed. Instead, Reagan decided to speak to the Nation about the tragedy that had just taken place. He refers to this day as “a day for mourning and remembering”. In Ronald Reagans address to the Challenger tragedy he spoke in attempt to pay his respects to the seven men and women who were aboard and their families, help the Nation recover
Well, this is it, the day all of us have been waiting for has finally arrived. It seems like only yesterday we were picking our noses and flicking them at innocent bystanders or yelling childish phrases like, "Liar, liar, pants on fire!" or, wait, that was yesterday. Never mind. Anyways. What I'm trying to say is the years, have flown by and it's not going to be long before we're in the stands watching our kids graduate. You know, there is a lot more to graduating than leaving Rufus and getting
In his “Challenger Explosion” speech, Pres. Ronald Reagan comforts the nation in the aftermath of NASA’s Challenger Space Shuttle exploded shortly after takeoff killing all seven astronauts. In this speech, he used rhetorical devices, such as alliteration, allusion, anaphora, and euphemism to relay his feelings of sadness and grief. In his speech in the aftermath of the Challenger explosion, Pres. Reagan used alliteration to convey his feelings of sadness to the families of the seven astronauts

It flows through all things, inside and outside. It is only with the heart that this thing can be seen. This thing called love.

Albus: Mate, now we've got this, the next stop is saving Cedric. Our journey just begun.” (Rowling 75). This piece of evidence shows that first step to their journey. The first try was a
Reagan is such a president that left the nation with outstanding rhetorically great speeches. One of these is his world-renowned speech given to the nation after the explosion of the Challenger shuttle January 26, 1986. George W. Bush, a president just as distinguished as Reagan delivers a speech on February 1, 2003 on a parallel account. Another shuttle, the Columbia, exploded with similar characteristics, and in much the same way, Bush’s speech resembled Reagan’s address to the nation. There were
Class of 2012, we've finally made it, but not without the help of our parents, teachers and mentors along the way. Maybe what they did for us was that they were a good rudder and we're the ship, and they got us to the sea where we remember who we are. Because we all get in that fog, where we forget who we are or what we're about, we get overwhelmed. I mean I've been there plenty of times in my life. But we're not going to remember most of our lives until the end. But we will remember certain moments
after his death, the company is still growing steadily. He never thought that his little $25,000 investment in a retail store would be a huge success, but Walton had an idea that no one had ever thought of. This would be the thought that would not only change his life, but the lives of millions of customers as well. The creator of K-mart Said he fabricated up the idea that if he offered well-know brands and sold them around 15% cheaper than other retailers, then this would make them a powerful source
Stated, “We’ve grown used to the idea of space, and, perhaps we forget that we’ve only just begun” (Regan), meaning that the reason this tragedy struck a chord with the nation was because we did not expect trivial outcome. Ronald Reagan effectively comforts the nation through the use of rhetoric while also addressing the

Not only is the internet useful to track down sexual predators and people in human trafficking rings but it also helps criminal justice agencies to monitor gang activity via social media, people posting pictures of drugs or sometimes even posting things about their involvement in criminal behavior. For example, just a week ago the FBI arrested a young man on possession of a firearm charges after they found multiple

Is this thing called art because it resists apprehension? Only what is at stake, Claus? If art forsakes literal representation, it is merely to get at the subconscious, at things that cannot otherwise be expressed - surely there is something to be said for that! Still, he said and we let it go.) Shoulder rub
titled Self Discovery as an elective instructed by Dean Bosley-Boyce. I remember when I signed up for the class I didn’t have any expectations and didn’t really know how fundamental a class like this would for me. As we begun the coursework I made a hasty assumption that this was just about resume building. I was completely wrong! This class turned out to be very insightful and really helped to confirm the type of person I was, my thought process, and what truly sparked my interests.
somewhere along the line that trying to hunt and gather food was too hard. We made tools to make the process easier. From sticks, to plows, to tractors, as a species, we've gone from nearly everyone needing to make food, to almost no one needing to make food. Yet in today’s modern society, we still have abundance. This trend isn't only in agriculture, however. Humans have built tools of all kinds to help in our work. Whether that work is on a construction site or in a factory, humans have made the
I picked up the large snow globe, admiring the precise detail of the miniature town inside. It showed the whole town just as it was today. Meyer’s, Target and Kohl's were all lined up as usual. Everything was the same. Except for one major detail. One, it wasn't filled with water and two, on the west side of town, instead of the store I was currently in, there was a golden gate. It had a tiny keyhole where you could unlock and open it. You could swing open the gate and take whatever was in the snow
have captured the collective imagination of humanity since our origins. The cosmos has always been unreachable until about 50 years ago with NASA’s lunar missions. Humans are born explorers and since the exploration of all the land on Earth, we have begun to look at the stars as our final frontier. Space exploration is worth the cost, but before we boldly go we must consider how we will treat extraterrestrial resources and the new environments we encounter. Space exploration is most definitely worth

Cloud computing is being heralded as the onrushing future of computing. In fact, in many ways, cloud computing is already here, and has been for some time. The most obvious example of cloud computing is Google Mail. Cloud computing, simply defined, is the implementation of computing services using shared hardware, shared software and in many cases even shared information. Google Mail, for example, makes e-mail services available using a widespread, highly redundant network of systems that remove
One thing I have recently begun to learn in life is that the novelty of anything, given a little bit of time, no matter how fascinating or unusual it was at first, usually wears off quicker than one would prefer. I have found this to apply to nearly everything I have experienced in my life, and a frightening term comes to mind. "jaded." At least it should be frightening to a mere seventeen year old, with so much left to do in life. I am more than confident that this is just a passing phase, but nonetheless
