Not only that it has benefited patients living in the cities, it also has a no arguable impression on those who live in rural communities. Many of these benefit receivers appear to be senior citizens. However, with the lack of technology skills, most of the patients are not able to effectively utilize these…
One of the cities I believe millennials love the most is Austin, Tx. That might sound weird considering the stereotypical millennial and the stereotypes surrounding Texas. Millennials are more liberal, artsy, young, hipster, nonreligious, and open to change, whereas Texas is stereotyped as old, southern, conservative, dogmatic, traditionalist, and pious protestant christian. So, why would a millennial think anything remotely related to Texas, let alone a Texas city, would be cool? Well, Austin,…
In the essay, “The World of Doublespeak” by William Lutz, Lutz introduces the readers to a language called doublespeak.

To say that WV is the worst place to live in the U.S. is a hyperbole, but many things need to be changed. While W.V. has many good factors, it is also number nine on the list of worst places to raise a child. Unsafe areas, high crime ratings, and drugs are all large factors in everything wrong with W.V. If we were to make some changes, then it would have the potential to be a wonderful place to live. It seems as though almost everywhere a child asks to go their parents reply, “No, that’s a bad…
People in different areas of Alaska all have different environments and depending on their environments, there might not be many activities that are possible. For example, in Barrow, the weather in the winter is very cold and there are tends to be a lot of snow and that would hinder any walking and bicycling. Small villages do not have community gyms because of how small the town is, so the only accessible gym might be at the school. Through the Healthy Alaskan 2020, the goal is more focused on…

Because of the low price of the imported products, it becomes more and more difficult for the farmer to provide for his family…

Typically they staying 4 families per floor, with 10 to 12 members per family and 2 to 3 rooms per family. These tenements lacked basic services such as…
Chroniko Chroniko is situated on a circular island, surrounded by a vast body of water that will be utilized as a source of hydroelectric power. The living compartments will similarly be arranged in a circular fashion around the perimeter of the island. While this land is powered by some sort of electricity, usage is kept to a minimum, with each household limited to a certain amount of usage per month. With the idea of sustainability in mind, transportation across Chroniko will be through more…
