An Open Letter
NO THANK YOU, MAYOR NAGIN
Or should we say Thank You?
Dear Mr. Mayor:
Your Executive Order to grant a landfill near the Vietnamese community is a betrayal of your promise to bring every community back to New Orleans. We were one of the very first communities in New Orleans East to be back rebuilding and [...]

Dr Homan, you really are a good teacher. Your lectures were unique and easy to understand. I would say the best part of the class would be the bible mysteries and the videos that you showed, and the fact that we did not have any tests. Now that I mentioned tests, I think I [...]

I am going to be flat out honest with you! I just can not do it. I wanted an A, I really did, but at this point what I want really does not matter. My project did not change the world, but it is improving it. May 1st, we will open our doors and [...]

Paul’s message is that God loves all and extends to anyone who wants to be within God’s favor. We are all born with Original Sin, which is the idea that everyone is born with sin due to the indiscretions of Adam and Eve defying God by eating off of the tree of knowledge but [...]

“They hatin cause I’m on the grind like I’m makin love
When cops got the block hot like Jamaican clubs
Cop wait, wait for a drought, and then make it flood
Try take my cake you ‘gon take a slug
But you can take my information if you takin drugs
Cause I could sell Raid to a bug
I’m a hustler! [...]

So, this is the last and final blog of the semester. I am truly excited. Since I have evaluated myself and my project in the final blog, it is now my duty to evaluate the class as whole.
As far as the first goal is concerned, I have gained much knowledge in [...]

Well, as for my grade, of course I want an A, but it may not be deserved. I had a great time learning more about the Bible, which is why I participated in class discussion on a frequent basis. I also had a good time working on my project. I felt as though [...]

So, to blog exactly what I have done to improve the world is my mission. Honestly, I’m quite proud of my accomplishments even though they are most likely a bit more modest than others. I have accomplished making a lasting friendship with a person who came to Xavier vulnerable and unknown. I was able to [...]

Update! Well, I just returned from my trip to Atlanta and I must say that it was well needed. It was a great deal of things going on but I had the most fun time meeting with the graduate school recruiters. I got the opportunity to meet with a few of the schools I aspire [...]

Well, since I’ve had to take a slightly different approach, things have proven to be quite promising. I was not able to start the program that I had originally planned to set in motion but I like the multi-fold project that I’m currently working on. The great thing about this new project is that it [...]

I decided to write a few people about some things that I proposed to do in regard to my problem and project

Mr. Poulson,
My name is Nyote Oliver, and I am a Junior, Chemistry major at Xavier University of Louisiana. I would [...]

I would like to make the disclaimer that this is a 100% serious blog. I feel very passionate about this and have worked diligently so please enjoy and learn.In thorough consideration of a problem, I decided to look at an aspect of my life that I felt was most pertinent for me, which involves the [...]

Well I must admit that the implementation of my project is going quite slowly out of the gate. I have exhausted many different paths and options so; let me know what you think. I would like to say, that there is a great deal of planning and care that goes into a project of this [...]

NOTE: MY LETTER WAS NOT MAILED. I WISH THAT GOD WOULD GRANT ME A WISH! IF HE DID, I WOULD GET MY LIFE BACK IN ORDER AND TELL OUR LOCAL LEADERS THAT THEY COULD KISS WHAT I TWIST. FOR THE RECORD, I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT MY WRIST OR MY ANKLES OR ANYTHING ELSE [...]

WE HAVE TO RESEARCH STATS! OOPPS ! Iam okay, I forgot that I am working on a Katrina project and it should be real easy to find out the number of families that need help in the New Orleans area, the number of houses that got destroyed, the number of organizations providing aid, the estimsted [...]

Jesus was put on trial because He was a revolutionary. His ideas were heretical at the time, and this is what put Jesus in the spotlight. He challenged traditional ideas of the pharisees and sadducees. He played a pivotal role in disproving many of the practices and teachings of the pharisees.
Jesus’ last week, [...]

Remains include fossils, building ruins and examining pottery and artifacts to determine cultural habits. Archaeologists are able to tell a lot about a culture from its remains. Modern Archaeology is significant to the bible because it allows one to [...]
