    Optimism: hopefulness and confidence about the future. The warm-hearted feeling you receive when you take a step back and glance for a moment at the resilient, robust nation built around you. The nation where everyone is free to express their uniqueness in gender, race, religion, and sexual orientation. The nation with stout defense and solid guard throughout all branches of military. It’s not a surprise we have the world’s largest economy, and the dollar is the world’s reserve currency. We are the only Super Power on planet Earth, and that is something to be proud of. Something that should give you optimism when you think of our homeland’s future. As home to more than 316 million Americans, we have the potential to do great things. Things superior to Earth itself. America is a beacon of hope, hope for immigrants looking to start over and start living their lives anew, hope for technology advances in ways that are mind-blowing and seem unfeasible. Hope for energy, and living clean and green. And hope for the education of our future generations- those who will be running this powerhouse into the indefinite future and continuing our uphill battle to excellence. With so much in store for the United States of America, I am so optimistic about our nation’s future.…

    In “if you assign my book don’t censor it’’ published in Kernersville, N.C on November 28, 1999, Mark Mathabane argues the high school that assign his novel ‘’Kaffir Boy’’ should not censor chunks of his book that contributes to the meaning of the novel. This novel is about Mathabanes childhood, living in Africa during the during the apartheid period. There is mature scene and language in this novel that parents would disagree with, but all with reason and purpose. He argues that those parts censored teach lessons, not to take everyday things like food or freedom for granted, to utilize education as a tool to make our society better, and to always to have the urge make the right choices in life. Mathabane uses all three logos, pathos and ethos to support his claim; he also uses his personal experiences to contribute to his argument to not censor parts in his novel that serve a great importance and lesson.…

    According to the website research some medication as Gonadotropin - releasing hormone (GN-RH) agonists - treat fibroids by blocking the production of estrogen and progesterone, putting the patient into a temporary postmenopausal state. As a result, menstruation stops, fibroids shrink and anemia often improves. GN-RH agonists typically are used for no more than 3 to 6 months because symptoms return when the medication is stopped and long-term use can cause loss of bone. There may also be a noninvasive procedure as a MRI-guided focused ultrasound surgery. This is where the doctor can see the present and location of the uterine fibroids and while inside the MRI scanner equipped with a high-energy ultrasound transducer the physician can target the fibroid(s). The ultrasound transducer focuses sound waves (sonications) into the fibroid to heat and to destroy…
