live and make our decisions accordingly will show its benefits. Weather, natural disasters, agricultural geology, etc. these features make us design differently for each environment. Such as; houses ın Bodrum, Turkey are famous for being white. Because of the high temperature, architects designed these houses white and made of rocks.

we could and went back to the cabin. Our cabin was two to three stories tall, it was massive but big enough to house all of us. We made catapults and opened the windows and put the rocks in the catapult's with boiling water as hot as we could get the water the better. We made bows and arrows to shoot at them off the roof like snipers without rifles. We were all scared to go out of the house but we had too, we dug trenches and holes and covered them up with grasses bamboo poles and sticks. We…

hurt. “ Son. Your mother and I have to tell you something” After my father said that their was a jurassic pause. I couldn’t think of what was going on, my mind was so blank and I was so cold. “ Mike and his parents were killed, a tree landed on their house.” Now I felt really cold, the inside and outside of me.” I know this must be really hard for you, trust me it's hard on us too sweetie.

I have chosen to write about the Willow Creek Community Church in South Barrington, Illinois. The place in question is a large, modern building. Its exterior has a looming presence, as though it were a stadium or a shopping mall rather than a church. The abundance of entrances and sections make the church a difficult place to navigate. Each entrance has its own parking lot, leading to a separate wing of the structure. Surrounding the building is a beautiful landscape, with lawns, pathways, and…
Termites inside houses are dreaded by the people living there. People often fear that their house will be taken over by millions of termites that can alter the infrastructure of the building no matter what the severity of what is done. The relentlessness of termites causes for altercations and can destroy the house. But termites do not grow strong on their own, they require a source, a victim, and help from other factors. Like termites, ISIS has come into Syria and Iraq and acted in ways that…
The next step in successfully purchasing a HUD home is to get a home inspection. Home inspections are optional but it is always in your best interest to get a home inspection.

It aids in identifying the age of major structures/ systems and it gives you an idea of how much longer you can expect them to last. It will identify items that may need to be repaired or…
Most of the time growing up as a kid I spent it with my oldest brothers. My favorite places I would love to be at as a kid was the alley. I can say that place made up my childhood. The place I enjoyed being at most of the day. It will always help me clear my mind. As a kid I didn’t always feel upset, but whenever I had a problem I would always go there to relieve some steam. Not to forget that’s where I met my best friend and my first girlfriend Most people assume when they hear the word…
Let us just come to the consensus that we all have dreamed about owning a beach house. There was even that period in the early 2000’s where we would send friends and families invitations to a beautiful beach house party, only to figure out it was a prank. Although not all coastal dwellers live in such luxurious abodes. They are middle class fishermen, engineers, biologists, and transporters whose jobs are necessary to sustain the economy, while having to live in close proximity to dangerous…
