In Numerology: When the 9 appears as a cycle, it often denotes a finality, the completion of an era. The Cubs last won in 1908. Reduce that number and you get 9. The drought was 108 years. That also adds up to 9. They won this year - 2016. What do you get when you reduce that down? Oh, yeah. 9. If you want to get a little convoluted, split the drought number into 10 & 8. Then double each component. What do you get? 20. 16. Before 2016, the last time the Chicago Cubs won a World Series Game was on 10/8 in 1945. And how many innings was it? 10. How many runs did they have? 8. Oh...what's necessary to end a drought? Just a some rain. If this all isn't magic, I don't know what

At this time in baseball history, the Chicago White Sox had the best player in the game on their team. Joe Jackson was simply known as a future Hall of Famer and the best to ever play at this time (Chadwick 35). He proved this by hitting .351 all season which led the Majors as well as hitting .356 his whole lifetime as a player which is still one of the highest averages today (Chadwick 36). However, the White Sox were no one man show they also had the top two pitchers in the league in Eddie Cicotte and Lefty Williams (Chadwick 35). By 1919, the White Sox had already made the World Series two times in a row. They had won the 1917 World Series, but lost in a heartbreaker in the 1918 World Series (Chadwick 35). It...
The White Sox team was formed in 1900 as a franchise of the American league, under the ownership of Charles Comiskey. The Sox were originally called The White Stockings. They shortened the name to White Sox in 1902. In its first year, the team won the league championship. By 1903, the American and National Leagues had agreed to meet in an end-of-the-year playoff, or a "World Series." In 1906, the White Sox won this national championship by defeating the Chicago Cubs four games to two. The next eight years brought a dry spell for the Sox.

For about five years California has experienced above average temperatures and a lack of rain. This lack of rain and snowfall has caused California to become increasingly dry, starting arguments over whose right to water is more important and who needs to be more mindful with their use of water. Farming in California truly began during the gold rush when water was redirected to land where food was grown for those looking for gold (Siegler, 2015). The farmers that have stayed on that land now have senior water rights (“Water wars”, 2015). Farmers that settled their land before 1914 are those with senior water rights (Terrell, 2015). Governor Jerry Brown has called for a cut in water use by one-quarter percent to people living
I am writing on behalf of the 8th grade class at Monticello Trails to persuade you to write a book about Kansas. We know that you do not take submissions, but we would love to at least be considered to be included in your wonderful book series. Kansas really deserves a book more than any other state because Kansas usually gets a bad rap from other states. Many people in other states tend to think that Kansas is a very boring and dull state. Well this book may show people that Kansas is not what they think it is. We want to show people what Kansas is really about.

greet you in Yumbe and Kaabong, in Hoima and Busia, in Bushenyi and Kamuli and in every household that sits on this favoured land. I greet you in neighbouring Kenya and Rwanda, and in far away Beijing, London and Boston. Wherever you are, we need to look to the future. This is the task that what we, The Democratic Alliance (Uganda), have undertaken in the last few months whilst putting together this manifesto. But this is not something only our leaders must consider, it is also our task as Ugandans. It is the duty that each of us as citizens owe to our children and grandchildren, to the children of our neighbours, to our respective communities and to the generations to come
1.Before you do anything you need to check your heart, take a few deep breaths and ask yourself why you are about to step on the field. If your answer is that the game is your life, your heart, your sole then you are ready to take the field. Do not take the field if you have any doubt in your mind that you do not love this game.
My father decided he wanted to drive and judge a debate tournament my freshman year. This was his second time doing judging and driving. It was Public Forum, LD, parliamentary state qualifiers in Oceanside. My father finished judging and wanted to leave. My partner Holley Parsons and I were watching a speech round. I was marked down for texting. My father came in and removed me, my parent and another girl by the name of Jade Hovel from the room. He was angry and called me a stupid ignorant whore and we started going home. He continues to yell and ended up swerving off the road to hit me. That night I was not allowed to go back to my grandmas. He slammed me into the wall in the hallway. The next day Holley and Jade reported my father and as
Thanks for your informative post on the public health issue of climate change. Gordis (2014) states that a fundamental role of public health is surveillance. As nurses we play a vital role in advocating for initiatives that reduces environmentally harmful practices to promote health and well-being (Canadian Nurse Association, 2017). The Canadian Nurses Association (2017) believes that, as changes in our climate continue worldwide, nurses have a role in working toward eliminating social inequities; by supporting environmental preservation and restoration.
