The Human Genome Project
622 words
At the beginning of the project, the Human Genome
Project was compared to the Manhattan Project or
the mission to put men on the moon. It was
considered so broad and so complex that the
funding could only come from the government. The
Human Genome project is now in the hands of
private labs. Those labs have forced the Human
Genome Project into a rush to finish first. The
Human Genome Project is a task that wishes to
document all of the genes (over 100, 000 of them)
in the human body. From these ...

Formula 1 Air Racing
1,085 words
Formula 1 air racing is what I think the most
exciting form of air racing. Formerly called
midgets the Formula 1 aircraft of today weigh
about five-hundred pounds have a Continental O-
200 engine. They usually reach speeds of 250
knots. Before I get into the high tech machines of
today I will discuss some of the history of air
racing and how it branch off to formula 1. Before
world war II racing aircraft were all original
designs that greatly advanced the field of
aeronautics. The aircraft used ...

Late Husband Part Shrine
324 words
During the summer, I had the wonderful opportunity
to go to Japan for 15 days as a community
participant with Columbus-Kiryu Exchange Program.
As a part of the program, each participant was
assigned to live with a Japanese Family for a
weekend. I can remember, vividly, the bedroom of
Mrs. Toyota, who was the mother of the family. It
had a classic Japanese appearance. Part of the
floor had a glossy cedarwood finish, and the other
part was "the tatami." The tatami is like a
tightly woven cane mat ...

Air Force Time Management
1,036 words
Effective time management is one of the most
important factors for succeeding in college and
despite my success in high school and Air Force
training I had a lot of problems with it. Some of
you might not think that time management is
important. I was one of those some, when I first
began my degree in Paralegal Studies at a
university in Florida. Here is what I knew from
high school and the Air Force: all I have to do is
go there, sit there until the classes ended, and
then go home and do whatev...

History Of Time Wanted To Study
1,503 words
Stephen W. Hawking has a mind set that is beyond
today's general way thinking. His attempts to
identify a grand unification theory that unites
everything we know about the physical world and
science far exceeds any realm of thinking that has
ever graced this earth. Hawking was born on
January 8, 1942 in Oxford, England. He spent most
of his childhood in and around London, and was
always a bit of a self-educator. He was interested
in the stars, and his family used to lie out on
the grass looking ...

Walk To Kennedy Stepped Off The Bus Stop

Busses, the key to some students life Lately, it

Great Race Open Road One

An exceptional education through
self-determination may has many positive
opportunities as well as negative, such as the
common application of stress and the pressure
everyday to do ones best in every class and on
every test. Personally, the weight of six advanced
placement courses in my sophomore year left my
mind weary and daily planner full. It became
painfully obvious that if I was going to perform
my junior year on the same level of excellence, I
would have to find an outlet to channel my m...

Chinese New Year Bad Luck

Every country has its amazing culture and
tradition. It is an amazing experience for me to
be able to be deeply connected with my own culture
and also learn about American culture at the same
time. I found out how important the traditions and
customs are for a country. They are the strongest
force that can bring people from the same country
anywhere on earth together and become tightly
united. It is how a country can be sustained and
recognized by others. So, it is important to know

Regular Peoples Lives Contract In Time Farrington
700 words
After reading several stories from James Joyce's
Dubliners, many of the themes are similar. There
is not usually an enormous plot, because all of
his stories are about working people in Dublin.
Every story has a very important theme that he
brings out through his description of these
regular peoples actions and through the setting.
He does not use a normal story line, a plot, or a
definite climax and resolution. In the story
Counterparts, he uses the theme of regular peoples
lives, religion and ...

Hard To Find Truth And Backing Authentic
473 words
In these days and times, it is hard to find people
that are authentic. Many people say things that
sound good, but when it comes down to acting upon
their words, its hard for them to follow through.
Being authentic, in my dictionary has not only to
do with telling the truth and backing their words.
To me being authentic consists of being yourself
at all times, understanding your ways along with
speaking the truth and backing up your words.
Everyone has his or her own definition of being
authenti...

Golf Ball Upper Body
1,095 words
The Basics The golf swing is sort of an awkward
motion that can only be mastered in time and with
practice. A person usually cannot pick up a golf
club for the first time and swing it with
perfection. One thing to remember is that there is
not an ideal swing for everyone. A beginner or
someone who already plays golf must develop his or
her own swing from the basic fundamentals of golf.
Even the pros that seem to play the game so well
do not all have the same swing. Their swings have
been transfo...

Writing And Reading Long Time

Lacking experience in writing and reading, English
is my most feared subject. It is the one and only
vulnerable spot in my otherwise invincible
academic armor. I hate writing and I despise
reading. Other than magazines, I cannot recall
reading anything since "The Crucible" which was a
teacher assigned book in my sophomore high school
English class. Not that I read a lot before that,
I don't remember reading any books in my middle
school years neither. Now, with this writing
