This play is used in taking advantage of defenses that over pursue, allowing offensive linemen to be more effective by pushing the defenders to one side. The slant run is exactly like it sounds. The runner will (HB) slant his angle to the outside after he receives the ball instead of running straight toward the line of scrimmage, The slant route is meant to get the receiver in the space behind the line of scrimmage and between the safeties and the linebackers. As a result, a receiver running in a slant pattern takes a couple of steps then runs towards the center of the field. The slant route is one of the harder plays to defend when ran right. Because the quarterback has a quick throw beneath the greatest amount of the coverage. But there

One day there was an open field, but not just any open field. This field was guarded by a goddess, Nixious (Nix-e-ous) goddess of disease. In this field laid her treasure, a young rancher and her cottage with sheep. This rancher impressed the goddess, and earned the name Simkaxzi (Sim-kah-z). One day, a mischievous young thief came to the ranch to take the sheep flock. As soon as he started to put a lead on one of the sheep’s neck, the goddess awakened.

During the Silurian period, approximately 420 million years ago the rock bed central New York sits on was formed. In comparison the soils in the area only date 12 to 14 thousand years back in comparison. This resulted because archeological evidence shows that the Tully Valley as we know it today used to be underwater 500-300million years ago (Baldauf, 2003). One effect of this is there are a lot of trapped salt minerals that built up over the years and lithified to become rock. During the last glacial event about 8,000 years ago Tully was cut into the “U” shaped valley we recognize today. After the warming event and the ice receded moraines and kames, glacial land forms became visible in the till left in the valley. The Tully was a lake for a while similar to the Finger Lakes running north to south (Baldauf, 2003). Contrarily to the Finger Lakes the Tully Valley sits higher above sea level and it eventually drained. Today only two main creeks are the only remaining water in the valley, Rainbow, and Rattle Snake which flow along the 1200ft incline.

In some unfortunate cases, “Search planes appear to have been more likely to go down themselves than find the men they were looking for” (Hillenbrand 91). During this time of war in the novel, if some of the

Council Bill 20-409 establishes adequacy by addressing the social concern of marijuana possession in small amounts for personal use. Prior to the bill, individuals were charged with a criminal offense which remains on their permanent record.

The bill, which decriminalizes small amounts of marijuana now provides for individuals caught in possession the opportunity for a self-sufficient life.

I felt that Vivian is an exceptionally intelligent woman. I really fell in love with her character, although she could also be very snooty and condescending. For example, when she told the ultra sound technician to go ahead and take a break. Jason on the other hand came across to me as very book smart and liked to show it off, but had a very poor bed side manner which was evident during his examination and during rounds with hi

This conversation between the three men depicts the contrasting situation based on the proper confusion act where one should cry (Ku), yet one should laugh based on zhuangzi's free spirit. This clearly demonstrate the contrasting viewpoint between crying and laughing, this text is quite rare since the theme of laughing or being happy is rare compared to the common theme of ku. This showcases how based on the confucian teachings, crying is allowed whilst laughing is not. Confucius believes that if one should not have sorrow one should not cry - this means that it is an external description of the inner feelings. Back to the text, crying is essential aspect of the funeral ritual performance and it is granted a moral significance, however zhuangzi
