As the population growth expands, an additional campus will be required on the other side of the county within the next few years. In the recent bond election, the voters approved funding to purchase land next to a business park the city has established. This new location is 15 miles from the…
It is my pleasure to introduce you to our latest inductee to the National Cowboy Hall of Fame. It is said that this man is unbeatable. He has won eight world titles--six in tie-down roping, one in steer roping, and one all-around-cowboy award. Not only did he claim those honors, but he also set the world record for most money earned in a rookie season and claimed the all-around rookie cowboy title in 1976.…

Okay my current event is on the california bullet train. This train will go from San Francisco to Los Angeles. The state senate just recently gave 8 billion dollars for the first part of the 130 miles of track and also a couple other local transit upgrades. It was a tough win for democratic leaders because they got the bare minimum of 21 votes which were all democratic votes. This was a victory for Governor Jerry Brown and the Obama administration who have been pushing for this. It would also be the first bullet train in the U.S. The train will begin construction in the central valley from Bakersfield to Madera, which will cost about 5.9 billion. Out of the 5.9 billion, about 3.2 billion is federal money and 2.6 billion is state bonds. The…

Recently it was announced that the city of Minneapolis agreed to a deal with the Minnesota Vikings, a franchise in the National Football League, to help fund the construction of a new stadium for the team to play in. While this will be deemed as great news by local fans of the team, I believe that using public tax revenues to fund the construction of this new stadium is a misuse of public funds and a poor demonstration of governmental policy. Research has shown that the use of public funds to finance new sporting facilities does not generate any revenue for the city appropriating the money and that the opportunity cost of not spending that money on other public programs or buildings can be detrimental to the financial stability of the communities and cities involved. (Lazere, pg.1) This research is also supported by esteemed civic finance scholar Robert Baade, who recently stated, “Findings indicate that public funding of sports, including funding of stadiums and sports arenas, is not a sound civic investment. Stadium subsidies and other sports subsidies benefit not the community as a whole, but rather team owners and professional athletes.” Due to the overwhelming wealth of evidence that shows the negative effects of public funding for sports facilities, I have developed a plan to force professional sports outlets to raise money through privatized funds so that money otherwise being pumped into building new sports facilities can instead be spent on projects that will provide a greater economic boost to the local economy and support more efficient governmental policy. As the main controller of the city budget, I hope you will support my conclusion on…

It is the primal urge amongst male teenagers; put the pedal to the floor and see who wins. It is street racing and it has caught on in the U.S. over the past decade as one of the worst influences on young impressionable minds today. The feeling you get when your going fast cannot be replaced by any other stimulant known to man. It's flashy, fun, and exciting until it goes wrong. The need for speed is increasing along with speed related deaths and accidents. Could modern culture have an effect on this with a series of movies and games?…
“Gymnastics taught me everything - life lessons, responsibility and discipline and respect.” Shawn Johnson was my idol while I was doing gymnastics. She motivated me to work harder on every event and one day be able to compete. I first started off by doing basic tumbling on the floor. My coaches would teach me new skills and spot me on them. They introduced me to floor, bars, beam, and vault. I thought that going to gymnastics a couple times a week would make me achieve new skills.…

Gymnastics has been a sport that I have always loved. When gymnastics is broadcasted on T.V, especially during the olympics, my eyes are glued to the screen. The high level gymnasts fly like birds while tumbling and on the uneven bars. From experience, I know that gymnastics is a sport that requires every muscle in your body. Gymnastics is also a sport that consists of insane amounts of time put into practice, and as a result, you’re sore and in pain a lot from all the hard work you’re putting in. Although, when it’s all said and done, it’s one of the most amazing feeling’s being out on the floor performing the routine you worked so hard to perfect, and then standing on top of the podium winning the first place medal.…
