In the past year and a half, NASCAR has revamped its penalties and violation claims towards its drivers, racecars, and the pit crew teams themselves. The new 2014 NASCAR rule book will display a new structure of guidelines that will be easier to read by the drivers and crew members. The list of penalties begins with warnings and then includes six penalty levels: P1 being the least significant and P6 being the most significant. Before the modifications were made, NASCAR had been perceived as racers
Boxes tumbled one after another as my cat blinked out of fear behind it, staring at the boxes. “Tigger!” My mother exclaimed as she rolled her eyes, catching my attention as I poke my head through the archway. “What did he do?” I asked as my mother walked over to the boxes and started to pick up the boxes. “He knocked over these boxes,” she explained as she gave a pointed look to my brown tabby. Sighing, I walked over to help her, kneeling on one knee. “It seems he doesn't want to leave either
As long as there have been sports, there has been violence in them. Ice hockey, particularly due to its increasing popularity as a professional sport, has brought up several ethical issues regarding the act of fighting in hockey. There are strong arguments for both sides of this present problem in the world of hockey. Numerous male athletes, including children as young as nine years of age, have suffered injuries as an outcome of fighting and it should be considered if it should be part of a sport

activity that anyone can take part in. Towns and schools hold annual cardboard boat regattas, judging the entrants on speed, design, and creativity. In New Richmond, Ohio there is even a cardboard boat museum! These special boats are more than just a box thrown into water; they are designed using elements of engineering and physics to make them not only water ready, but fast and durable. Building cardboard boats is an exciting way to incorporate topics studied in the classroom into an exciting educational
You would. My inner voice says No I would not, thank you very much. That is what you are doing right now, isn’t it? Why how rather snarky of you, myself! “Wait, what am I doing? This is weird.” It’s only weird when you make it weird. “Stop talking, I’m trying to do stuff!” I say out loud, beginning to weave vines and leaves together. The voice in my head mimics me, but retreats back. Looks like I won. I continue to gather wood and dry leaves, to make a fire as it is starting to get cold. Right
The sport of hockey has been around for over 200 years. Hockey is unlike any other sport because the regulated rules allow much more physicality and contact. Many people would argue that hockey is too physical and it is only a matter of time before it becomes fatal. When hockey players begin playing the sport they are pushing by their parents to achieve greatness. I believe that hockey is one of the best sports in the world and being physical is a part of the sports. I also believe that hockey parents
maybe?” I was startled; I hadn’t expected this kit to work let alone posses my laptop. The voice appeared to not have heard me and a black rectangle appeared on the screen in the middle of the blood red. A cursor was positioned on the far left of the box indicating that it wanted me to type something. My hands shook and seemed to work without my volition and I typed in the first name I could think of: Heidi Olsen. Immediately both the screen and the seance kit went dark. Then, the ouija board went crazy

It was every parent’s worst nightmare. That feeling of uneasiness, not knowing if you’ll ever know the truth, fled the minds of my parents. Two days ago, on November 16, my life flashed before my eyes twice. The first had happened around 7:30 in the evening and I was on my way to my best friends house. I had gone to her house a thousand times before, and I didn’t think this time would be any different. Driving down the highway, the unimaginable happened, I lost control of my car. I had lived through
the boxes that I incorporated with the musical instruments. They used the boxes as a musical instrument by tapping the bottom part of it, using it as a tool to stand, or basically just practicing how to open and close it. When I hid something in the box they kept on opening it and smiling as they opened it. In the room, we had this one big coffee tin can that has holes on the plastic lid. Children would take off the blue plastic lid and pour the small metal lids into the floor. Children would also
days, whistles were pretty popular. Slide whistles were a very common favor at birthday parties. I remember an older cousin came back from the army once, and he had a really cool whistle that played several different notes. It had come out of a box of cracker jacks. My supplier in those days was my grandfather, who conveniently owned a liquor store. My brother and sister played with my cousins in canyons and caves made out of the corrugated cardboard crates in the storeroom of beer and cigarettes

handed until I spotted the stack of boxes in the far left corner. There was a small wooden box on the top labeled David Walker with black sharpie. This is it. I thought. I sprinted out of the attic holding the box in one hand and the ladder in the other. Out of breath, I plopped down onto my bed, sitting with my legs crossed and the box out in front of me. Answers… Please give me answers. I thought as I opened the box. Inside held a picture of a man with dark skin and short black hair. I assumed this was
Using Democratic Deliberation to Resolve the Moral Disagreement on Capital Punishment (Death Penalty) Common American experience seems to suggest that a solution to every dilemma can be found through enough lobbying, legislating, media-blitzing or politicking. We often believe that the person arguing most eloquently, reasonably or forcefully will win every dispute, yet there are times when this optimism fails. Despite great efforts to show the strength of a position, there are arguments that
Death Penalty is Neither Cruel Nor Unusual A man sits immobile in a steel chair with a metal cap resting on his bald head. A priest reads selections from the Bible telling him he will go to Heaven if he confesses his sins to God. The man just smiles as the security guard pulls the switch, and one thousand volts of electricity flows through the man's body. His entire frame shakes in convulsions as his head bobs up and down with the shock. In a couple of seconds the man's life is over. The priest
The Death Penalty in Canada and the USA The death penalty, also referred to as capital punishment, has been abolished in Canada since 1976, but still exist in a few American States.

Another reason for my disapproval of the death penalty, is the amount of money that
