the ad features Meggan Anderson wearing nothing but high heels, holding a stuffed elephant over her butt and it reads, “Let her entertain you, not the elephants” (Ballard). The message that this ad promotes is that rather than observing and objectifying animals for entertainment, a person should instead watch and objectify women. This again, makes the…

Bursitis - the body creates a sac of fluid to protect and lubricate areas between muscle, tendon and bone when that area suffers injury; it can become inflamed, however, causing pain in the side of your foot 3. Fissures - sometimes the skin by the heel gets dry, forming cracks in the skin and pain; they can bleed also 4. Fractures - can be due to a fracture of the 5th metatarsal, if no other injury or cause is found 5. Ganglions - sacs of fluid from a leak in the joint capsule can cause foot…

Fashion was very important at the turn of the century but it wasn’t always painless. Women’s fashion was especially uncomfortable; outfits consisted of mostly of long, restrictive dresses - as many as four outfits a day for those who could afford that many expensive gowns, and for those who couldn’t they could purchase a pattern and sew a replica themselves. Either way, from the rich to the poor, under all of a women's outfits was the corset. Some men also wore corset-like garments called “body…

In 1968, the Marching Tar Heels of the University of North Carolina (UNC) released a 7-inch 33 ½ rpm record consisting of eight school songs including “Here Comes Carolina,” “Carolina Fight Song,” and UNC’s alma mater “Hark the Sound.” Past UNC students wrote and composed over half of the fight songs featured on the album, and the student marching band performs the same songs today, nearly five decades later. In fact, the band and fans conclude each game with “Hark the Sound,” linking arms and…

The legend of Achilles talks about a great warrior that was strong and courageous and extremely loyal. The myth also tells that he had one vulnerability which was his “Achilles heel.” (History) When Achilles was a baby his mother wanted to protect him by making him immortal. She would burn him every night…

of his foot forward. His heel will touch the ground followed by his toe, then the arm opposite to the leg in front would swing forward. I assumed that his strides would be larger because of his height, but it was average.

in women's fashion from a young age. His passion for shoe design, influenced by his three sisters, first became apparent during high school where he spent most of his spare time sketching shoes. Louboutin, who was enthralled by sketching stiletto heels, devoted his late teenage life entirely to this obsession. As a result, he was expelled from four schools, but this certainly didn't negatively affect his chosen career path. Following school, he travelled around the world to Egypt and India, and…

Often, people that say they are "personally prolife" but would never impose their views on someone else. What they fail to realize is that this view is completely illogical. If abortion is truly murder, than we have the obligation to tell people not to do it. If it's not murder, there's no reason to be against it at all. To say, "I'm personally prolife, but I don't have to right to tell someone else what to do" is to say, "I'm personally against the slaughter of 700,000+ babies annually…

pressure damage could become a problem. Ideally the individual should inspect their own skin regularly for any changes, but this is not always possible and you may have to support them with this by checking the skin over bony prominences such as heels, sacrum, buttocks and any other areas likely to be affected by pressure. The signs of early pressure damage that you should look out for are: Non-blanching redness - this is redness of the skin which does not go white (blanche) if you apply light…
