So far the implementation of my project is going very well underway, although taking quite a bit of time. The project is an on-going project that will take some time to have fully implemented but I am very pleased with the status so far. As of the end of February I have three prospected schools [...]

For my project, I chose to try and reduce underage drinking. What i have done is gathered information on under age drinking and passed it around in my community. At first i tried to find an organization and i did. It was the The Louisiana Alliance to Prevent Underage Drinking, but when i tried to [...]

Ok so I am now going to lie, my project implementation is not going as I previously thought it was. I obviously am having a hard enough time taking 17 hours worth of classes and keeping up with all the work and giving my time to a good cause. Also, I had a little wrench [...]

“About 25,000 people die everyday from hunger or hunger-related causes…”
            When asked, “What do you think poverty is?” my 18-year old nephew replied, “Those hungry children in Africa with all those flies around them.” This may seem funny at first, but it is sad that the youth are so ignorant of this topic. Many of [...]

The responses I have received from week four were very positive and informing. I in return responded to thoses comments leaving my opinion on their comments.
The logo I have designed for the project I am working on “Globalizing Girls First,” has a logo and a slogan.
Slogan: Positive Influences Promoting Positive Futures

I do not believe that [...]

Honestly, I haven’t begun to implement my project. It is a work in progress, very slow progress. Recently, I started thinking that I was making this too big and it would be too much for me to handle, and it is. However, I think it would benefit others more than it would hurt me. I’m [...]

Katey — Thank you very much for your suggestions to my project. I think including health issues when addressing obesity is a great idea because it will definitely tie in with my chose career as a pharmacist!
Marteena — I am in process with getting in touch with the organization and hopefully planning an [...]

My project is going okay. Breannah and I have decided to team up and merge our ideas together. I think that merging our projects together will be even more powerful than us doing our projects individually. We just have to really think about what it is we want to do. Once we come up with [...]

Problem: Hunger

Where does starvation exist in the world today? Starvation is not just a problem in New Orleans, not only in Louisiana, not only in the United States, but starvation is a worldwide problem. The causes of starvation are numerous and complex, but poverty is the first and foremost leading cause of starvation. [...]

Week 6-

Project Update: The importance and urgency of my project is becoming more relevant day by day. Ironically, the place where my group plans to volunteer services, The Second Harvesters Food Bank, was noted in the newspaper last week regarding the shortage of food at Second Harvesters as well as similar food banks throughout [...]

This is my logo and representation that summarizes my project. This is the logo of the organization that we will be assisting to help distribute food to the hungry. This organization represents lending a helping hand to people that need it. I think that is the best representation that captures the idea of my project. [...]

The project I would like to implement would be called “The Floss Boss.” This is a project that would encourage people to obtain knowledge about having good dental hygiene. The emphasis would be on educating children, youth, and adults. Dentists in the community would be called on to volunteer one Saturday of the month.
The program [...]

 I want to thank everyone for the positive feedback on my project. I want to especially thank Framiz for the idea of making this a class effort. Since so many people in the class are addressing the poverty issue, maybe we can join forces and make this an even bigger effort. My grandma usually says, [...]

I commented on mdeloach7, emilygray, kfreeman, aminias, tchevis, wcantrel, nuwaezuo, kthomas9, missnay1, and dwhite9 .
What are some similarities and differences between Genesis and the Enuma Elish?
Genesis and the Enuma Elish have a similar creation sequence: light, firmament, dry land, luminaries, and man. A likeness the Enuma Elish has to Genesis is the Babylonian God created [...]

The three biggest problems in the world are Global warming, Violence, and drugs. Global Warming is defined by wiki answers as the results of harmful gases which are released by humans on earth are sent into the atmosphere that broke down our ozone layer. As Carbon dioxide is released into the earth’s atmosphere this burns [...]

My hurricane story is fairly funny. The hurricane affected my sister because at the time she was attending Dillard University as a first semester Junior. This semester was very different because she was moving from the modules to the on campus apartments. Of course I was jealous because our family had to do a whole [...]

Last week, we had to come up with three problems that negatively affect our world the most. Now, we are called to pick a problem and come up with a solution to that problem, which includes a plan to solve the problem. The problem I want to tackle is education. Education is one of the [...]

We live in tumultuous times. Yes, I know that this is a somber way to start off my blog, but there is no doubt that there is some truth to this. Everyday, there is new evidence that our economy is going downhill, there are murders that are taking place for the stupidest reasons, and there [...]
