Rubber bands are worthless and unreliable. They cannot be trusted to repeat a performance even under identical conditions. If one decides that they will risk a grade on the reliability of a rubber band‚ they are setting themselves up for dire results and disappointment. The assignment was to create a small car‚ built mainly from cardboard‚ powered by rubber bands. The rubber bands were wound tightly around an axel. After the car was released‚ the elasticity of the rubber bands would pull the

“The only hope you have is to accept the fact that you’re already dead.” [The Band of Brothers] In 1942‚ the U.S. army assembled a volunteer parachute regiment to jump behind enemy lines.

The brave men parachuted behind enemy lines in the early hours of D-Day in support of the landings at Utah beach and much more. Doing so‚ the company sustained one of the highest casualty

Concert Report The Wayne Shorter Quarter concert was unlike any concert I have ever been to. The variety of instruments and style of the performers contributed to a unique experience. Not only was the music I heard versatile on several levels‚ but the behavior of the performers‚ appearance of the audience‚ and atmosphere of the venue contributed to my take away from the show. These factors allowed me to obtain a better understanding of jazz as not only an art form‚ but as a culture. The audience

My Favorite Dish Most of us have a certain type of favorite dish‚ but my favorite dish is seared steak with a garlic glaze. I love this dish because it reminds of that time my cousin told me about it and described it. Ever since he told me I always wanted it to try it. I couldn’t try the dish because he didn’t know the name of it and so I couldn’t try it out in some other restaurant or make it myself. The only way I had to try it was to go where he lives and he lives out of state‚ I had to wait

“What do you mean all of this work is preparing me for life?” cried Melissa‚ one of my young trumpet players. “This is just a band concert!” The Beginning Band class had stalled in its progress toward their first performance and I could see it was time for me to convince her how preparing for a concert was about much more than playing the pitches and rhythms. There were lessons to be learned that would be applicable throughout her life‚ regardless of her eventual interests or careers. In the
