I got to meet new people with the same questions as me. The professor was very understanding and gave clear explanations of everything. It was very informative and very helpful. I am definitely going to be using this resource more often. It’s very useful and it helps you a lot.
A lot of locavores would say, “Buy local, shrink the distance food travels, save the planet.” (Source C) It only makes sense that the less distance traveled the less pollution. However, there is so much more you have to account for. In fact, Rich Pirog, of the Leopold Center for sustainable Agriculture, stated that transportation isn’t that big of a problem. He said it only accounts for eleven percent of the carbon footprint. Most of the energy required to produce food happens in the consumer’s kitchen.
Kyle Frederick Dr. Hall, 10:30 12/6/13 Bland Meals for Bland People Don't you just hate biting into food and realizing how awful it actually is? That's what LSMSA students have to experience every day. Not only does the food taste as terrible as a bag of rocks, but most of the fruits and vegetables are littered with brown spots of rot. Also, there isn't as many choices of food for all of the meals, either. One sausage and one hash brown for breakfast just doesn't cut it.
Europeans began the colonization of America in the early 1600's. In the beginning they all came to escape from something in Europe, and while there were many various reasons for leaving, most were fleeing from religious persecution. The other main attraction was economic prosperity in a new world rich with resources, to either be sent back to Europe, or to simply use here and make a new life for themselves, better than that which they had back home. The English colonies of the Chesapeake and New England were similar in terms of who founded them ( English settlers), but the similarities pretty much stopped there when it came to reasons for settling, and once they had established themselves how their economies and societies were set up. They differed greatly in economic structure, religious beliefs, societal structure, and also population make-up.
Sickness was a huge problem faced by the colonies around the year of 1623. A letter by Richard Frethorne written to his parents describes the poor conditions at the time. He wrote that “causeth much sickness [including] the scurry and [dysentery] and diverse other diseaeser, which maketh the body very poor and weak”. This document accurately sums up that during this time the numbers of the Virginia colony were weakened greatly by the numerous plagues taking effect on the settlers. Another source writes of the sickness making cultivating the farmland impossible.
Colonists were confessing their guilt and sin and then wallowing in the thought of being “saved.” The Great Awakening increased religious diversity and the separation of church and state. Colonists started to believe that if they could make their own religious decisions, they could also make their own political decisions thus adding to democracy in the Americas. Immigrants came to the Americas for gold, God and glory without the realization they were adding to democracy in the colonies. Many immigrants settled in the middle colonies because farms were bigger and trade was better. Immigration also added to the development of slavery, Africans being captured and brought to the Americas by Europeans as either slaves or free labor servants would add to the American colonies fight for a more democratic society.
Citations of these sources were created using the website, Easy Bib along with the annotations accompanying the citations. The most interactive of the presentations of History Fair projects is the exhibit. The exhibit category is a very difficult but very interesting way to convey the information being presented. This type of exhibit is also very engaging to the viewer. The visual aid was a diorama of the evolution
I believe that this movie was a also good for our class to watch. It shows me personally how although they didn’t have any money they still ate food everyday because they were able to hunt and cook it for themselves. I also learn and see to look and appreciate the life that I have and the things that I have. There are so many things that you can take for
The previews web application used external links to provide supporting information, which consumed more time.

This is quite an advantage if taken under consideration that people preference of media may differ from one to another. Some audiences find video content helps them to pay attention longer, thus making easier to understand the information. With so many people around the world entering information online, there was a need to properly categorized data so it can be found by the search engines.
