But determination does not mean to try for a bit and then just give, it means to keep trying until you accomplish your goal. For example, Carey M. Thomas worked very hard to create a fantastic college. First of all, she worked very hard to pass tests, however she failed MANY of them, but she did not give. She kept trying until she finally passed, and not only did she pass, but she got high score
"Expect great things from God. Attempt great things for God" is a quote by William Carey, a missionary to India, and encarved on his tombstone.

Men such as David George, Lott Carey and Colin Teague, where some of the first African Americans who went to Africa to promote Christianity.

The character, James Bond, usually comes to mind when one thinks of the British agency MI6. An agency that enables its agents to have a license to kill, enabling them to do anything, at any cost to achieve the greater good, with the head of the agency M sitting behind a desk giving orders. This sounds like an agency that anyone would love to work for. In reality, it is an agency that has been through several wars and has evolved over the years with lies, secrets, and betrayal (Corera, 2011). At one

The Role of Genetic Engineering in our Society With today's technology in genetic engineering, it seems we can almost play God. Scientifically speaking, are we enabling our bodies to survive all the traumas of a hostile environment, or are we endangering future generations to a limiting gene pool? Spiritually speaking, are we improving our bodies to save more of God's people, or are we attempting to "perfect" God's creation, and damning ourselves? The technology of genetic engineering is advancing

As we look around at our women in today’s era, we might ask how did she become so independent, successful, and confidant? Even when I look at my own my mom, she was hired as the first woman to work as a manager at a fortune 500 business, and then created her own business. As well as my friends’ mom, who also has her own business in psychology; accomplishments like these must have originated from somewhere. The answer lies in the 1920’s. A couple years earlier, World War I was waging havoc, killing

Introduction My role in the ongoing TEMP Project (Teacher Education Model Programs) proved to be an experience like none other I have had in my years in education. My own training and experience has taken place in classrooms ranging from 7th grade to college undergraduate literacy courses. Observing an elementary math class ensured I would be a wide-eyed learner absorbing that fascinating environment. To be sure, I was a bit nervous as I pondered the prospect of observing an elementary classroom
Abstract: More and more Americans are tapping into the Internet in their search for convenience and expedience. One service that offers both of these values, and more, is online voting. However, it is not as simple as point and click. Studies show an inequality in the ability to access the Internet across socioeconomic class and race. This Digital Divide is a major concern in the development of an online voting system, and authors of this new technology must take care not to let these existing
