The month of October and the day of All Hallow's Eve on its' last day. There are a few Jewish religious days like Yom Kippur and one other one but to me October is one of fall chores from raking leaves and preparing gardens for winter and maybe even mowing grass one or more times before the end of the year. The leaves are changing to vibrant and vivid colors of yellow, gold, red and orange then jumping in them and starting all over again.

Senior Year
We have reached my Senior year in high school. The year it seems that everyone cannot wait for and when it is over they begin to wonder. This was the year we studied American Government and Economics, and I had courses in Money Management, Office Practice, Typing, Recordkeeping/Office Machines, Business English Communications. and even a Piano class. We were all planning for our Senior prom and getting everyone to sign our Senior albums.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

The African Diaspora and History of Rhetoric: Learning to Learn
When studying the history of rhetoric, many groups were excluded from participating in power and were used, abused, and written off as inferior. Even today African nations have not recovered from being exploited by European powers.

Wild Card Weekend Recap: What Happens Now?
I think I figured out why I love Wild Card Weekend so much. It's because it's the first playoff anything of the calendar year. The NFL season starts in the fall, and once upon a time, the champion was crowned either on or slightly before New Year's. The evolution of the NFL schedule has resulted in the playoffs starting just into the New Year, and currently, the final week of the season falls on the first weekend of the New Year, with Wild Card Weekend coming a week after that. So yes, chronologically, the NFL's Wild Card Weekend serves as the first playoff anything of the calendar year.
