naysayer

one naysayer I have encountered (the peoples almanac) is particularly against solar power. They say first that solar power power is tricky because you must find a way to store it which I agree is tough because of the conversion it goes through to become usable power but it is not impossible. The entry goes on to say that solar energy is also hard to collect, this worry has in recent years become less and less of a problem due to new research into better solar panels and better conversion methods. The last thing the article goes on to point out is the amount of money needed to create a power system solely reliable on solar power. It is true that solar power is expensive to invest in now but just like any past enterprise, if you research it enough, newer, cheaper, more efficient solar power systems will be developed. My thesis was not really affected by this article.

Paper 4 thesis

I believe that in order to salvage our economy and push forward into the future we should take serious research interest in alternate fuel sources including but not limited to solar, Hydrogen, and bio fuels.

5 men were found shot dead in a california homeless camp recently. The police are working on leads but nothing solid has been found yet. The authors tone in this report seems slightly concerned but mostly confused as to what these 5 people could have done to die? I personally am asking the same question, Who are these 5 homeless people? and why were they murdered?

Time management

It is a well known fact that time mangement and college go hand in hand. If students come to college challenged and unprepaired to manage their time they most likly fail. To aid in the time management colleges offer help from councelers as well as suggesting the buying of a planner. For me time has become a constant unresolved issue that plauges me non-stop! for this reason alone I cannot merely give one instance where time has been an issue without summurizing my whole college career to date. So instead I will give just a few things that make time management harder and harder. The first thing on this list is of course my job, I work anywhere from 10 to 20 hours a week and the worst part is that my work times fluctuate;with such a volitile work schedual I can rarely find a steady time to study or coordinate a steady sleep schedual. Anthoer time consumer is AFROTC. I want to be an active member but just doing the bare minimum is time stressing. These among others are constant, royal pains that all contribute to my alaways changing time schedual.

Sins of the (Grand)father? (Revised)

A 6 year old boy who was abducted 4 days ago is now back safe with his family and police say his grand daddy may be to blame! 4 days ago Cole Puffinburger was abducted from his mothers home by two armed men posing as police officers. The boy was found on a side street by a bus driver near a Methodist church. Law Enforcement Officials have now arrested the boy's grandfather whom they believe stole millions from drug dealers and was supposed to pay it back in ransom demands. While the author of this piece seems rather objective I think the Grandpa should fry! anyone who steals money from drug traffickers is only asking for trouble. What the man should have done is gone to the police and told them about the traffickers instead of stealing from them. Most other news articles are giving sympathy towards the boy, but are just as suspicious of the Grand-dad as I am. My question: How did this grandpa find out about this drug ring in the first place?

research paper

I have been thinking about writing my research paper on alternative energy sources. I am interested in this particular topic because I believe that a change to alternate energy sources would boost our economy by limiting our reliance on foreign oil and other foreign sources. I believe that this is a decision that needs to be made in order for our country to advance further into the future.

A 6 year old boy who was abducted 4 days ago is now back safe with family and police say that his grand daddy may be the reason! 4 days ago Cole Puffinburger was abducted from his mothers home by two armed men posing as police officers. the boy (now home safe with his father) was found on a side street by a bus driver near a Methodist church. The police have now arrested the boys grandfather whom they believe stole millions from drug dealers and was supposed to pay back the money in ransom demands. My thoughts is that while the author of this piece seems rather objective I think the Grandpa should fry! anyone who steals money from serious drug traffickers is only asking for trouble for him and his family. What the man should have done is gone to the police and told the police about these druggies and let them deal with the traffickers instead of stealing from them. Most other news articles are giving sympathy towards the boy but are just as suspicious of the Granddad as I am. My question: how did this grandpa find out about this drug ring in the first place?
