Hi Peeps,
Today 's Quote
"I enjoy learning, listening, thinkings, growing, chewing, processing, and crunching God 's Biblical Data to then scientifically study how truthful this information exist and works in my heart, mind, body, and soul, which clearly describes and musically pictures how the cogs of habitat work together in our world for our Good!" ~Jon Barnes Learning
I personally discovered my chemical balance and optimal state of learning and competing with myself, during a music competition in middle school, with my teacher Dave Hariston. He said, eat a big breakfast and come to school ready to win this competition. It turns out for me that my belly was full but my mind was asleep, like I had been drugged. I couldn 't

Something New
This time I ate nothing until the competition was over and realized that my attention levels and abilities were at an all time high, helping me to think and execute my plans, goals, and dreams. It worked. Right On! I did the work and then I ate. Work for your food became my code for life. As a result, God has delivered my from my selfish, self-destructive modes of self indulgence, glitter, glamor, and famous foolishness of Greed and contempt. This is something new to think about on an empty stomach! Eat less. Work For Food
Working for God and His Spiritual Food has the same effect on my life. I will wake up and get God 's Work done first, before I eat or drink and then the rest of the day flies to the moon and back with such great joy and love. My heart and motives navigate my chemical and genetic predispositions of my mind and body functions, so that I maintain control over my destination, opportunities, and fate, which was put into God 's Hands, first thing in the morning, each day, out of obedience! That is my secret and Mind Set towards God out of LOVE not science. Think like God, which is FAR bigger than science! Today 's Question What is your food for thought and how does your mind tick for God 's Word and Work? Enjoy Today

Despite all of General Zaroff’s success, fortune and his appeared attitude, Zaroff is in many ways not civilized. Civilized means being polite, well-mannered or treating others with respect. Well Zaroff treats Rainsford good at first evident by giving him a cocktail, treating him to a meal, and hoping to hunt with him until he says “I wish to leave this island at once”. This quote hit Zaroff in his heart.
Hello! I hope the school year is going great. Although I no longer walk the Daleville hallways I cannot help but hear the many things that go on. It was clearly brought to my attention that Wyatt Baldwin's senior quote was inappropriate. As I looked into the yearbook website and saw it myself after my mom had sent me the picture of it blacked out I understood the reasoning.
The argument developed in Chapter 3 and 4 of the Outliers contends that IQ beyond a point is not a determining factor in success. Gladwell implies that a higher IQ to a certain extent is optimal but once a defined threshold has been achieved, having greater intelligence provides limited or possibly no additional benefits in the attainment of success. An analogy in the book that is used to convince us that opportunity matters more that talent is an example from the studies of Annette Lareau comprised of a group of third graders residing in lower and middle/upper income households. Her studies showed that the middle/upper class students were provided opportunities to cultivate their talent/abilities in a meaningful way along with support and
Nole Ehrhardt Motifs: 1.Legalized Discrimination Hein ¾ 2.Community “Tell Them We Remember” “German-African children were killed by the Nazis because they were viewed as an inferior race,” says Susan Bachrach in Tell Them We Remember, page 12. To start off, the book is about the black, white and bloody facts about everything that happened during the Holocaust. Now, Susan used the motifs of Legalized discrimination and community to show the that “discrimination puts people into separated social communities.” FIrst, the motif of Legalized Discrimination is shown when it states that the Nazis passed a law that restricted all civilian jobs to “Aryans,” the “perfect race”(Susan Bachrach page 12) THis upholds the theme
“You know what's going to happen to that boy someday he'll find himself sitting in a dungeon, locked in forever and the takers will have the key!” (p.g 143) The quote above is from the play A Raisin in The Sun by Lorraine Hansberry. This play takes place in 1959 and follows a family through the hardships of being African-American in America. After Mama’s husband dies, the family is given ten thousand dollars as insurance money and is what their dreams depend on.
A quote that I have used to help me through high school at Mountain Heritage High School is “The Point is not to take the world’s opinion as a guiding star but, to go one’s way in life and working unerringly, precisely; neither depressed by failure nor seduced by applause.” This quote reminds me to stay humble and never give up. This quote has also reminded me, in countless situations, that other people’s opinions of me should not define me.
The next day I barely had anything to eat. I didn’t eat anything for breakfast, and for lunch I only had a sandwich and an orange. Practice after school was very difficult because I had very
And then, there was no longer any reason for me to fast. I no longer accepted God 's silence. As I swallowed my ration of soup, I turned that act into a symbol of rebellion, of protest against Him. And I nibbled on my crust of bread. Deep inside me, I felt a great void opening.¨
Throughout this journal, Zaroff can be characterized as confident and wacky. First, he can be considered as a confident man. In addition, the introduction of himself to Rainsford can be a detail by his speaking tone. Also, how he collaborates with Rainsford such as shake hands is a detail too. For example, “Another man was coming down the broad marble steps, an erect, slender man in evening clothes.
Living in New York City for my entire life, I felt personally connected to this speech. Former Mayor of NYC, Michael Bloomberg, in the eyes of many, was not the most sympathetic person during his many years in office. This is why his speech supporting the proposed mosque near ground zero, recalling the first responders who lost their lives in the September 11, 2001, attacks, shocked so many people. Bloomberg gave his speech on Governors Island, one of the first places early settlers stepped foot in New Amsterdam, reminding the audience of past struggles for religious tolerance. He started his speech off this way to awaken the dormant moral compasses of all those who oppose the building of the mosque, “…we come here to state as strongly as ever—this is the freest City in the world.
The Use of Rhetorical Devices in the “Google Home” Super Bowl Commercial Companies and other forms of media strategically use the three rhetorical appeals, ethos, pathos, and logos, to market goods and/or promote ideas. The appeals have been used for centuries are still prevalent in all types of modern day propaganda. If used correctly, ethos, pathos, and logos can be used as clever tactics to engrain information into the brains of consumers. One of the more notable ways that brands use these appeals are commercials. Google, the world’s most famous multinational technology company, used the three appeals to reach success.
Ursula Le Guin defines Omelas as a utopia where the citizens’ lives are never wretched. Le Guin captures her readers’ attention by describing the city’s beauty with the colorful scenery, events featuring games and horse riding, and the everlasting happiness. She does a great job of leading her readers into thinking this could be the perfect society, but leaves us with the question of satisfaction. According to Le Guin, “happiness is based on a just discrimination of what is necessary, what is neither necessary nor destructive, and what is destructive” (p. 2). This quote means that there must be a balance for the society to succeed.
A Monster Calls: DJ Quote “Belief is half of all healing. Belief in the cure, belief in the future that awaits. And here was a man who lived on belief, but who sacrificed it at the first challenge, right when he needed it most.
You are valuable. Say it with me. “I am valuable”. Do you believe it? Let’s try again, but this time let’s include Christ.
