Avid readers recognize how easy it is to become attached to a book character. Harry Potter and his friends have proven this throughout the series. With such a psychological attachment, there 's bound to be a "mourning" period when you finish reading the final chapter. Some readers may simply close their book with a sigh and not feel anything. But many will feel a loss. The anticipation is over and there 's not even another book to look forward to. Don 't give in to "Deathly Hallows" depression. Here are four ways you can deal with reaching the end of the Harry Potter journey. 1. Go back and relive the saga - Don 't think that just because you 've read all the books once that the journey has to end. Many people have already read each of the books several times.

This doesn 't come as a surprise to those of us who have pets. What may come as a surprise are the reasons for this. Pets never judge us The first reason given in most studies for the ability of pets to help ease the symptoms of depression is that they never judge us. They love us unconditionally, really require nothing of us and never comment on our behavior or appearance. It 's the perfect relationship. In tests conducted where a person was given a simple math or spelling test where they had their best friend, spouse or pet present, they were the most calm and performed the best when the pet was in the room as opposed to the friend or spouse. We are more at ease with our pets than with our fellow humans. Pets give us a reason to get up in the morning The vast majority of pets require some sort of daily care. Granted it 's usually not much care, often just providing them food and water. But for a person with no family living with them, it can be a very real reason to get up every day. It can also provide a reason for a person to go to work every day. For many, the daily walk their dog needs is the only reason they leave the house. Something they wouldn 't do for themselves, they will do for their dog. They will go to work to support their pet even when they wouldn 't do it for themselves. Pets are attuned to our emotions When we are having a stressful day or are depressed,

New York 1905, when the Court decided to strike down New York’s sixty-hour limit for work based off of the right to have “freedom of contract”.

With this decision the Supreme Court overturned almost 200 Federal Court decisions in regards to economic legislation. However, the term has now been extended, to mean any instance in which the members of the Court come to their decisions on the constitutionality of legislation, without any Constitutional backing.…

    According to the legal definition found online at thefreedictionary.com, the Supreme Court “decides the most important issues of constitutional and statutory law and is intended to provide legal clarity and consistency for the lower appellate and trial courts”. So what happens when the political ideological values of most powerful court in the country becomes askew? Well, that is exactly what happened with the unexpected death of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, and the effects to the Supreme Court’s decisions since then are highlighted in the New York Times’ article I read titled The Right-Wing Supreme Court That Wasn’t by Adam Liptak. The article I found in the New York Times mentions that just before Scalia’s death there were an influx of cases which were believed to eventually move laws to a more conservative side, but his death led to a few of the major decisions made to…
