Many people believed that the Twin Towers would never collapse and that it was invincible due to the complexity of its structure. The North Tower was constructed in December 1970, followed shortly by the South Tower in January 1972. The complex design of the World Trade Center was conceived as an urban renewal project and were used to restore confidence and help bring a halt to the decline of lower Manhattan. The 9/11 terrorist attack was a series of four attacks on the United States on the morning of September 11, 2001. The attacks killed 2,996 people, injured over 6,000 others, and cost at least $10 billion in property damage and infrastructure. The greatest factor that contributed to the loss of life of 9/11 was the construction of the towers…
Here he comes! Heading passed the Texas Book Depository. Bang, bang, bang, bang. Our thirty-fifth president John F. Kennedy was shot, and died instantly. How many shooters were there? How many shots were there really? Who was this Lee Harvey Oswald? Why did Jack Ruby kill Oswald? These are the mysteries of JFK’s assassination. There are many conspiracies to his assassination, like the official Warren Commission report of 1964. I have a theory there were multiple shooters. There were many shooters, because of how many shots there were, and the autopsy photos of JFK and the bullet wounds in the governor. This will all tie into my conspiracy.…

The entire ordeal left over 2996 people dead and thousands of people injured. The attack was done by al-Qaeda and controlled by Osama Bin Laden.…
For 53 years, people in The United States have wondered about the truth behind the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and the conspiracy theories that lie underneath. The American people say that the assassination was committed by either the Mob, the Soviet Union or two other shooters. There is also gossip about a “magic bullet” that killed Kennedy. Although there is not any substantial evidence that it is any one of these factors, there are still many unanswered questions. Why would someone do such a thing to the 35th President that helped and solved many problems? The answer is unknown till this very day for which the government has tried to put an end to all links of the connection that can trace back to the…
The assassination of President John F. Kennedy (JFK) was the “where were you?” event of the 1960’s. In November of 1963, JFK was shot riding in his limo in Texas. Because the shooting was in public view of both citizens and the media, there are varying accounts for what took place that day. A government investigation, referred to as the Warren Commission, concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone gunman of the assassination of Kennedy. In the 50 years since his murder, several other theories, related to the circumstances surrounding his death, have arisen. Because the government has been so assertive that Oswald was the single shooter, any inconsistency gives rise to alternative theories ranging from CIA involvement to a second assassin…
In the early 1980’s, Denver experienced significant economic growth due to the booming oil, real estate, and tourism industries. The major airport that operated within Denver during that time was the Stapleton Airport. Up to 1970, the Stapleton Airport was able to accommodate the demands of Denver but in subsequent years it was unable to meet the ever growing needs of the city. The Stapleton Airport was seen as a liability and limited the attractiveness of businesses that were swarming to it. Issues with handling high traffic volume, disruptions in connection schedules, and an overall poor airport layout led the city of Denver to decide whether they wanted to expand or replace the Stapleton Airport. A study performed in 1983 determined that an expansion of Stapleton’s capacity was needed.…
The assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy was one of the most tragic moments in American history. At the time of his death, America was at the height of the Cold War. The nation was also just affected by the Cuban Missile Crisis as well. Kennedy’s death left the nation helpless and feeble anticipating the worst has yet to come.…
Since the first airport was created, airport and in-flight security have been issues of serious concern for the U.S. Government, as well as other governments around the world. The Government, which has turned to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to secure airports, has passed and redone many bills and acts trying to provide the safest and most efficient form of airport security. Before the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 security in airports was considered anything but excellent, but for the most part did the job that was expected of them, making sure that people who boarded the planes did not have weapons or that no bombs made it onto the airplane. It was also on this horrendous day that the United States public took serious concern over the nation’s airport security. September 11th changed the world’s attitude on airport security, and how important of a concern the nation’s airport security was and will continue to be. The terrorist attacks also showed the entire world how easily the old system was to manipulate, and how much improvements airports needed before they could be truly considered secure.…
have you ever wondered the difference between a murder and an assassination? Well i’ll tell you an assassination is the act of killing someone,a murder is a the unlawful premeditated killing of one human being by another. Like the assassination of JFK his assassination was unjust because he was the youngest men to reach the white house via the electoral college,his ability to demonstrate that a Roman Catholic could win to be the president of the united states.However,some believed he was the worst president in the century.…

September 11, 2001. A day no American will ever forget. It was a day that this nation realized that we as Americans are not invincible. We can be hurt. Planes flew into both the north and south towers of the world trade center. The towers collapsed killing thousands of people. This event has been not only terrifying, but it has also been insightful. In my English IV class, we read multiple articles that were published after 9/11. These articles gave us insight by looking into the historical significance as well as the memories of that terrible day.…
John F. Kennedy was born May 29, 1917 to Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy and Joseph Patrick Kennedy. He had 8 other sibling 5 sisters and 3 brothers. John F.

November 22, 1963 was a day that shook America to the core. This was the day John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Houston, TX. The nation experienced the loss of our president, but also of a faithful leader, a true gentleman, a father, a husband and a friend to many. We mourned the loss of a man who led our nation with integrity and pride. The death of a man with such high esteem comes at a great burden to us all, and this burden is what spurred the creation of many conspiracy theories concerning what happened on the day John F. Kennedy was assassinated. The most probable and true of these theories states that John F. Kennedy was…
For years, the air cargo industry has been plagued with too much capacity chasing too little business. Jet fuel the single largest cost, currently consuming more than 40 percent of expenses is essentially beyond management’s control. Since the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, security costs have skyrocketed and regulations are tough. Last week, a shipment of horses from Miami to Caracas was postponed after the death of Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez held up paperwork. When Chile’s salmon industry suffered production woes several years ago, it crimped shipments of fresh fish to Miami. Volcanoes, earthquakes, hurricanes all mean delays and missed opportunity. “Everything that affects your life every morning affects our business,” said Rey, who built his privately held cargo business through a series of acquisitions, some in bankruptcy-court proceedings. He has bet heavily on Miami’s place as the gateway to Latin America, a position that has blossomed fully in recent years. Miami International Airport, which is owned and operated by Miami-Dade County, ranks third among U.S. airports for air-cargo volume and is number one in perishable cargo, accounting for 69.7 percent of U.S. airport tonnage in 2011. For Rey is a great advantage been in the best location. The main advantages I see about been in the Miami international airport is the proximity to countries that their economy is based in a port where everything comes from other countries especially the US. These countries are most of them South Americans, like for example Venezuela where most of the things come from the port and internal production has drop significantly. Centurion has been taking advantage for all this situations that these countries are facing by these days and have help them grow faster than they thought. After finding more about the countries that they deal with and how many times a week I…
