    Evan Olson Period: 6 Mr. Lone/ Mr.Paulin Book Report: Inside the Vicious Heart One quote I found that really grabbed my attention was, “It was though we had penetrated at last to the center of the black, to the very crawling inside of the vicious heart. I had found this interesting because it really sums up the entire book in a few lines. It shows how the American’s felt toward the Nazi’s and the horrible acts they did. It also explains how the Nazi’s were viewed as “heartless” or that they truly had “vicious hearts”.…

    Through my four years in high school, one of the toughest classes I faced was AP biology. The rigorous course involved an intense 48 chapter lesson plan with a 2 hour AP exam at the end of the school year. Near the end of my junior, I was skeptical of taking this class, as I heard from my fellow classmates that the class was difficult to earn a decent grade. With this in mind, I began preparing for the class over the summer by reading the textbook, and practicing using the workbook. As I read the book, I became deeply interested in this subject.…

    Abstract For the study, the researchers concentrated on the microbiome of the oropharynx, the area of throat located at the back of the mouth, including the back third of the tongue, soft palate, tonsils and side and back walls of the throat. Research prior from the team pinpointed differences in one facet of throat bacteria between people with schizophrenia and people without the disorder. In the new study, the researchers focused on the complete totality of microorganisms and their collective genetic material present in or on the human body or in another environment. The researchers looked at the viruses, bacteria, and fungi present in 16 individuals with schizophrenia and 16 control participants. The results require repeated studies and expansion for further confirmation but researchers were able to report astounding differences between the microbiome of schizophrenia patients and those of the control participants.…

    Edgar Allen Poe captivated everyone with the short story The Tell-Tale Heart, which forced readers to questions one's mental state, deciding on whether someone is guilty or innocent, whether someone is conscious of their actions, or if they are sane or criminally insane. The Tell-Tale Heart is the perfect example of the argument of whether an individual is aware of their actions and the crimes they commit or if they are possessed and driven to commit crimes by something in their mind, in which they could possibly use an insanity plea during their trial if they are caught. The narrator, who Edgar Allen Poe portrays as insane, is not, and during this essay, I will outline examples as to why he is not and that he is fully aware of the crimes that he is committing. The first example as to his premeditation is how he is explaining the story to the audience.…
