There were many musical elements heard throughout these pieces and it was interesting to hear how they varied in each song and suite. In Intermezzo, it began with a quieter violin solo melody creating a monophonic texture. Soon after, it became accompanied by the other violins and cellos, then the full ensemble came in creating a moderate, flowing melody at about mezzo forte and switching to a polyphonic texture. Next, there was a harp solo at forte with many crescendos and decrescendos. The full

Somalia was just one of the many African countries taken control of through imperialism. Great Britain was the first to take over, soon followed by Italy. For years, Somalia faced challenges of no formal government, malnutrition, and poor sanitation. The European imperial powers saw the desperate need that Somalia was in, and attempted to help cure their informality. But, like all other imperial powers, they take more than they give and don’t always benefit the less fortunate country. Before imperialism

It's hard to stay optimistic in a Challenge, sometimes you want to give up and quit. But in the end you have to stay with it.

You have to try your hardest to stay together and keep going for your friends, family, and for yourself. One of the hardest challenges for me was switching instruments the end of the eighth grade year for the marching band that

Great ideas and innovations don’t appear out of nowhere, it takes time, dedication and most of all hard work. There are two great man made things that took much hard work from many different people to build, things like that which were built years ago is still a mystery to people nowadays. These two man made things are the Moai on Easter Island and the Panama Canal. Both of them took much dedication and also are marvels to people even today however, differ in many ways as well, an example of witch

I spent a whole weekend with the founding father of jazz, LOUIS ARMSTRONG! Well, not Louis Armstrong himself but whenever I speak about or describe Cameron, their characteristics are quite similar. Cameron was different. He was unique in a sense. He has a presence that is undeniable, though often not understood by most. Not only is he the smartest person I had ever met, Cameron exuberates kindness, compassion, and warm-heartiness. Unfortunately, many people do not see Cameron as I do or know what

Helen Oyeyemi’s The Icarus Girl engages with many questions within the diasporic dialogue and the writer asserts the position she takes with all issues she deals with. She, like many, sees that there are many things pulling apart the ideas of Englishness and Nigerian-ness but at the same time, there are things that fuse them together in people that live both those identities at the same time. Jess is the person she uses to establish this unsteady union and at the end, this young girl who begins her

“Alright, you guys have run the course before. You 've all trained hard throughout the whole month for this. For many of you, this will be your last race this season, so make it count!” Coach Guzmán announced during a whole team huddle behind the Sports Pavilion and next to the track at Tustin High School. This was the day before the race, the Empire League Finals, which determines which schools will move on to the CIF Southern Section Preliminaries, the Cross Country equivalent of the quarterfinals

Separate from Somalia, Somaliland was known by as the British Somaliland Protectorate received unrecognized freedom May 18th, 1991. Somalia known as Italian Somalia its colonial name, received independence July 1st, 1960. Located in the Located in the Horn of Africa, Somalia suffers from an unsuccessful government, food crisis, disease, piracy, and recurrent external intervention of attempt at help such as the UN creating a navy in attempts to stop pirates. These factors combined have ultimately classified

Alien species is a species which brought into an unnatural ecosystem. Invasive species are species, both native species or not, which broadly affect the habitat, can cause environmental damage, economic loss, or harm for humans. Invasive alien species do not always invasive species not necessarily come from outside/foreign. Invasive Alien Species (IAS) is a combination of alien species and invasive species. Invasive Alien Species is a species introduced either intentionally or unintentionally outside

What is GM food? GM stands for “genetically modified”. Genetically modified food is food that has been produced from organisms which had specific changes introduced into their DNA by making use of genetic engineering. This is done in order for the organism to perform better under harsher circumstances and to improve yield and resistance against pests. Genetic engineering can be used to introduce new traits and also have more control over the genetic structure of the food. Genetically modified

For years, the health and safety of genetically modified foods have been debated and researched by scientists, but the question still stands: should genetically modified foods be allowed for consumption? The process of genetic modification involves inserting a gene from bacteria or a virus into an organism where it would normally not be found. The purpose is to alter the genetic code in plants and animals to make them more productive or resistant to pests or farming techniques. Genetically modified

GMO, also known as the Genetically modified organism. These are artificially designed flavors and nutrition to make food good and long lasting then the usual. A proper definition would be that GMO refers to the plants or animals created through the gene splicing techniques of biotechnology. From this different types of food items are created by merging different DNAs from different species. (David Suzuki Foundation, n.d) Genetically-modified plants, animals and processed foods were

1.Those animals all belong to the Kingdom Animalia|. 2.ex.1. Corn was crafted through artificial selection a wheat like plant called Teosinte became corn, the vegetable became bigger, easier to eat, and sweater. ex.2.humans over the time have created Kale, Cabbage, and other plants through the artificial selection of Wild Mustard. The plants no longer have yellow flowers and now have lots of large edible leaves. 3.They belong to the Phylum Cnidaria. 4.Stomata allows carbon dioxide, water vapor

Nowadays the majority of the food that we purchase in the supermarket is genetically engineered, which means that these foods have genes from other plants or animals injected into their genetic codes. The goal of genetically engineered foods is to add one or more traits that are not already found in the organism or plant. Many people feel that genetically engineered food should be used because it comes with many benefits such as, it makes more nutritious, tastier food, and it increases the supply

Genetic modification is the alteration of an organism's genes to acquire desired characteristics (Kracht para 1). Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are in over 70% of products produced in the United States, especially since most contain traces of corn, soybean, rice or canola, which are some of the popularly grown genetically modified crops. (Steinhauer and Strom para 20). Currently, companies are not required to label GMO-containing products, however, some people are pushing to make it a requirement

Detection of listeria spp Contamination of food and dairy products with Listeria is the major cause of foodborne disease in human. Since researchers have found out that listeria is a foodborne pathogen, there is a continuous challenge on isolation of bacteria from food and other samples [115]. The primary studies indicated that Listeria is able to grow at low temperature so researchers used this phenomenon for isolation of bacteria from clinical samples by culturing for a long time in 4oC but this

What’s with the recent rise in organic farming? Although organic production methods have been met with adequate speculation throughout history, it seems as though this alternative farming method has begun to take hold in the United States. While this may be largely due to the increase in false health concerns surrounding traditional techniques used in agriculture, one may suggest that growing popularity of the practice has reached the agenda of former presidents and congressmen, increasing the benefits

Many people may not notice this but Monsanto has a big impact on, not only the United States, but the world’s food industry. Monsanto was originally apart of the industrial chemical business when it first started in 1901. But as the food industry continued to grow, Monsanto became apart of the food industry. Monsanto became apart of the food industry in 2002, but didn’t start only selling seeds until 2008. So there is still a 6 year period where they were selling chemicals and food products. Monsanto
