Victor Burnette spent eight years in a Virginia prison for a rape he didn't commit and nearly 30 years trying to clear his name. Burnette was convicted in 1979 for breaking into a Richmond woman's apartment and raping her. Being labeled as a rapist is an embarrassing and horrible thing. Even though he didn`t do it, it still going to make him feel embarrassed about it. Technology available at the time could not eliminate Burnette as a suspect. Despite maintaining his innocence, Burnette was convicted. The conviction cost him friends and job prospects. While in prison he lost the hearing in his left ear after being attacked by three inmates. He lost eight years of his life in prison, five years on parole, and for 30 years his name was just totally…
Time is the destroyer of all things, wiping out life and destroying mountains. Fortunately, a man named Harry Brearley invented an incredible metal, which allows sanitation and precision in many professions. Harry Brearley has benefitted humanity by making a time-standing multi-purpose material named stainless steel, that is crucial in many tools today. Take the case of surgery for example; stainless steel made way for the surgical tools that treated a wart that was potentially dangerous to my mother, because stainless steel is safe and malleable. Surgeries would not be possible without tools made of stainless steel, because the material does not rust, and is made into tools with the precision to safely perform such procedures. Stainless steel benefits humanity by allowing for medical…
It is hard for me to imagine the barriers black composers and lyricist had to face in Broadway in the early 20th century, but Eubie Blake and Noble Sissle hit them head on and has earned himself a spot in Broadway’s long history.

He started playing a pump organ at home before the age of 5, and would being playing professional by the time he was 6. During this time, he would play at brothers and saloons until he had finally secured a steady job at the Goldfield Hotel in Baltimore. In 1915, Blake and Noble Sissle began a long career of working together extensively, forming a partnership that would last for 60 years.…

Harry Turtledove is arguably one of the greatest writers of the 19th century, from his life story to his current works.

The fact stands that few have reached the level of prestige and critical acclaim amongst reviews and fan alike. He has a dedicated fanbase but outside of said fanbase he is an unknown which is a failure on the part of the media.…

I believe that the best practices in early childhood education include children’s ideas, parent’s values and teacher’s suggestions. All of these will benefit children’s learning as well as give them a good understanding of the environment around them. Teachers should be flexible with the daily schedule and open to different learning opportunities. This way, children will have less structured time and more opportunities to explore and learn. As I observe in some of the childcare centers, children do not have enough time to play or finish their investigation and projects. They are hurried to be putting their toys away, and this does not benefit their learning. Teachers should encourage children to explore and investigate the topic further. The center’s policies should exclude time outs, as it does not improve children’s behavior, but rather stimulates him to get more attention. Teachers should encourage children to solve problems, and help them out if they see that serious issue occurs. Also, the physical environment has a big impact on best practices too. It should be filled with warm colors and feel like home to children. If the children will feel like at home, they will feel safe, which will benefit their learning.…
Everyone has morals in life. Weather learned from nature, family, or past experiences. Robert Frost is well known for using different themes to teach morals in his poems. He uses imagery, emotions, different views, symbolism, and ever nature, to help create an image in one’s mind. The morals that these different types of themes create will make the reader face decisions and consequences as if they were in the poem themselves. His morals can be found in the poems, “The Road Not Taken,” “Nothing Gold Can Stay,” “Out, Out,” and “Acquainted with the Night.” Robert Frost’s poetry uses different themes to create morals which readers will use in daily life. “He is fairly taciturn about what happens to us after death, partly because he finds so much to engage his attention here and now” (Jennings 173).…
