On September 9th, in Anytown, USA, a mysterious death was discovered when a woman named Anna Garcia was found face down dead in her home. It all started when Anna’s neighbor, Doug noticed how Anna’s dog was constantly barking for two hours straight which was very unusual in the quiet suburban neighborhood. Doug realized this and tried calling Anna multiple times and rang her doorbell but when no one answered, he decided to call the police at 9:45 a.m. The EMT and the police arrived at 9:56am but the door had to be broken down and there was Anna lying face down in the entry of the hallway.

The San Joaquin had a restoration plan with a debatable question, would the outcome benefit California or not? It was unknown if the river would support salmon or how it would affect the economy. Then in 2009, McEwen answered that question within his article with pessimistic expectations and concerns. With this in mind, McEwen’s article is juxtaposed with articles of 2015 on the San Joaquin River and area.

In the article It’s Still a Mad, Mad California by Victor Davis Hanson, I found revealing descriptions of encounters in parts of California very surprising. Within the article, Hanson illustrates an incident where thieves struck a mailbox, taking all checks and mail and money from envelopes. Hanson states that, “Most of us in rural California go into town to mail our letters, because our rural boxes have been vandalized by gangs so frequently that it is suicidal to mail anything from home. (Many of us now have armored, bullet-proof locked boxes for incoming mail).” I find this episode very odd and unfamiliar.
The location that I chose to visit was parking lot 10 at Sacramento State. I visited the location on a Friday morning. The mass wasting was found in front of parking lot entrance. The waste from the area was transported to the back of the parking lot. It was evident that mass wasting had occurred because there was mass moved that had then been vegetated to cover the slope.
The car flipped over in a fiery blaze and we

I live in Garden Grove, Vietnam. I know Garden Grove is not in Vietnam, but it feels immensely so. My community is small, we know and see all, but we are not tight knit or family like. There are Vietnamese people everywhere I go and look. If a person who was not Vietnamese, of Asian descent, or Mexican in my community, they would stand out like a sore thumb.
I have lived in East Oakland my whole life. To the majority of people, the mention of East Oakland evokes thoughts of violence, shootings, and gangs. I was one of the people who believed in these stereotypes, and for a particularly long time. I was one of the people who saw Oakland as a wasteland, a place with nothing to offer me, and a place I had nothing to offer to.
Meaning/Main Idea In the excerpt from Joan Didion’s “The Los Angeles Notebook, Didion’s main idea is that human behavior can be analyzed through mechanistic patterns, even though on the outside the cause, such as a Santa Ana wind, may seem supernatural. In the beginning of the excerpt, Didion describes the physical characteristics of a Santa Ana wind and continues on to explain people's instinctive reactions to these environmental conditions. She explains the pervasive effects of the Santa Ana by writing, “the baby frets, the maid sulks” (paragraph 1).
Linda pokes her head out from behind the dark heavy curtain that separates the cab from the sleeper. With her sleepy eyes and a genital voice reminds me to turn on the mirror heaters, the windshield wipers and slow the truck to an appropriate speed. Linda quietly disappears behind the sleeper curtains just as calmly as she appeared. My heart racing from the excitement and beauty loudly beats in my chest as if I had just run a race. I watch into the distance as I slowly move down a long and winding road.

California is the “beauty of the eye of the beholder” since all people who come from different background, race, and religion are able to set their own dreams without being criticized. People especially immigrants have viewed California as the “land of opportunity,” which influenced them to leave everything behind in their hometown, to sacrifice their time and to focus on their dreams. Despite the fact that California was lauded as a utopian society, people soon found out that they were going through endeavors and couldn’t overcome them quickly as possible. In fact, Mr. Rawls wanted to express the grievances, struggles, and success that people endure in their rise to the California dream in his short essay, “California: A Place, A People,
