headed home. As more and more people exited the Mall dust clouds where whipped up in the wind, dropping from an already 30 degree temperature to an estimated 15 degrees. It was all worth it. To walk along the Mall and see news cameras, the capital in front of me, to hear the cheers of the crowd as the President and Vice President made their way to the White House, to see the Parade on the jumbotrons, there is just nothing like that I have ever done. For a long time I have known a Bush (Sr. and W.) in

Being excited and open to learning has really helped me in this internship.How do you manage working as a full-time intern while also being a full-time student?

In the lab, Waldow and his students work to design, build and test molecules that can not only help make batteries safer, but also charge them faster and store energy from renewable sources such as wind and solar. One goal is to create a

John starts by saying “Fortunately we have more than one carriage so if one is blown over in the wind…” Isabella responds: “Husband, please!”. He, with a slight tone of amusement, replies: “Happy Christmas!” as he exits the room. De Wilde’s Christmas scene, then, centers on a bitter family relationship. However, what does carry over from the novel and from McGrath’s version is Emma’s devotion to her father’s happiness. When Mr. Woodhouse
