Why I didn't Watch the Debate


My political view tends to lean to democratic side, however this election has me thinking otherwise. Not necessarily that I feel the urge to vote for Trump, I can't see myself voting for either. This era of politics revolves around personal gain. Both Clinton and Trump speak, and we listen...yet we know a majority of what they are promising will either never happen or it will be highly skewed from the original thought. My logic is that by the time our younger generation gets involved in politics, we will see an upward curve of more "real" politicians. For instance, Trump got called several times for his changing view points, but instead of saying "yes, i changed my view point and here is why..." he chose to go with "I never said that".

Weekend Warrior

Made it through the weekend. *pats self on back*

Most students would agree that the weekend is your chance to finally exhale and relax the mind. Not the case for my weekend. Usually I expect weekend homework, but this weekend I was hit hard. Not a bad thing, I just wasn't able to unwind. Jumping back into Monday I already feel like it should be Wednesday or Thursday.
The most time consuming project on my plate was the documentary summary. I looked at the list a few times in the past, and on Friday I made my decision to watch Dinosaur 13. The film was alright, the difficult part was writing the summary without referring to my own opinion. The language that is required is less familiar to me than a typical college essay. With that being said, I can say this type of writing is going to take some practice. That's the beauty of rough drafts! The final product will be of my best efforts...lets see how this goes.

The Widowmaker



The P1 is undoubtedly one of the most expensive hypercars on the planet. With an active rear wing air is moved in the most efficient way possible. Production price is marked at 1.15 million dollars. Many feel the shape of the car is not immediately appealing, looking like somewhat of a melted ice-cream cone. But once you understand the reason for the shape you realize the molding panels produce 1300+ pounds of downforce at 160 mph. When McLaren built this car, they re-innovated the engine. The car uses a twin turbo V8 engine assisted by a totally separate electronic engine over the front axle. This combination of design and innovation make this car one of the most practical street legal race cars to date.

The beginning


Why blogging? I don't know. Lets not jump to an early conclusion though. Blogging can be a great method of advertisement and product review. The criminal justice field requires a ton of writing, so we better get used to the different methods we can utilize.

Like the great Conor McGregor said, one is not simply born with talent. You must work at it. Obsess over it. Then become great at it.
