kind of like the NFL’s yellow line that indicates where the first down is located. Only we want to take it a step further by using it as a form of advertising in the outfield or in the dirt by projecting an image of a company’s logo or slogan on the field.

Do the words Wrigley Field, Route 66 or Windy City mean anything to you? These terms all refer to Chicago, where my family and I went this summer. We left at 3:00 A.M. on Thursday morning. We got there at 1:30 P.M. It took ten hours of driving. My dad, mom, sister, brother and I all went along.

the most basic measures that most be examined and planned involves the smallest units within the database, the fields. The fields are derived from the simple attributes that were defined in the logical data model. A few decisions need to be made regarding each of these individual fields.

I lay transfixed, in a field of flowers. The brilliant yellow skyscrapers were dwarfed by the endless ocean of blue. Feeling the cool breeze over my lips, I felt a rush of freedom and sighed contently. Even with the breeze, the warmth of the sun reached me and it wrapped me in its calmness. I could smell of the freshness of the air and the dampness of the soil beneath me that soaked my dress. Alone, not a soul for miles, and I couldn't feel any more at peace.
