Step 9: Impact Statement
To obtain my eagle scout award, i had to put together a project that would help out the community. I chose to help the church that i attended, Our Lady of Victory in Crestview, Florida. I planned the remodeling of the church's care center, which was a food bank type building in which families having a hard time providing food for them selves were able to find support. My fellow scouts, family, and friends helped me take out the old shelves that where about to fall apart. We made sturdy new ones, installed them and also painted them. we changed the light fixtures, and we also repainted the office. After the project was complete, many of the people at my church would keep telling me how thankful they were for the makeover. Many families were able to find support in the Catholic Care Center, and i was glad that my project helped out so many peopl

Step 10: Educational and Career Goals
Hopefully after obtaining my business degree at the University of Central Florida, things will fall into place in getting a nice career. I have always been fairly outgoing, so i always thought that being a salesman would be a line of work that would suit me nicely. Since jobs at dealerships are normally tough to get into without knowing someone, having a degree will hopefully make it easier to get into a job like that. Hopefully i can also move up in the company if i show promise.

Step 11: Unusual Circumstances
I have always been very good about doing well in school no matter what circumstances life may have thrown at me. Getting a good education has always been important to me because i know that it will lead to a stable career, and open up many doors. i have had to deal with pretty difficult situations; my father is handicapped, so there are medical expenses and his well being to worry about. since we also have a family of 5, that makes money a little tight too. In my school and community activities, i always try to do my best no matter what.

It was humorous, creative, and got the point across to the audience. Compared to the other commercials of this year’s Super Bowl those were the qualities that stuck out more so.

    As someone not overly tolerant of military conflict, in light of the divisive war in Iraq and considering the unpopular nature of the Vietnam War in U.S. society; I decided to choose Tim O'Brien's account of combat in Vietnam in "The Things They Carried." I found outside commentary on this story by searching for reviews and analyses of the work on EBSCO Host, the university research database. I also surveyed the commentaries in The Story and Its Writer to add substance to my own analysis of the story. The most useful sources were the more scholarly ones that came from EBSCO host in journals like Critique and the Explicator.…

    “Give me liberty or give me death.” (henry). This is a famous quote from the talented American revolunist Patrick Henry. It was said that henry could position his audience to anger, fear or laughter more sudden then professional actors. He showed this talent in his Speech at the Virginia Conventiomn. The most popular poets and writers uses multiple techniques and strategies to grasp their audience attention. The rhetorical devices include pathos, that appeals to emotion, ethos, which means authority, logos introduces logic. Many revolunist uses the rhetorical triangle, which is “the art of enchanting the soul” (plato). Arthur Miller uses these styles as well in his play The Crucible. I strongly believe that henry used ethos, pathos and rhetorical questioning to connect with the audience in The Crucible.…

    The amount of missing aboriginal women in Canada is something that is not being recognized as the societal tragedy that it is. According to Amnesty International there are "more than 580 cases of missing and murdered Indigenous women in Canada, most within the last three decades. Because of gaps in police and government reporting, the actual numbers may be much higher" (Amnesty, 2014). Violence against aboriginal women is extremely high.
