structural collapses. Surprisingly, the most powerful enemy to the fire service, a silent but deadly one, is cancer. When I first started as a Firefighter, a short nine years ago, conversations about cancer in the fire service didn’t come up in the fire station. Sure, we talked about cancer, maybe a friend or relative that came down with it. Even if one of our colleagues came up in the conversation, as one of our most cherished brothers, Robert D. Henderson, perished after my first year in the…

She is much less assertive with her solution than the seemingly ‘in control’ American. Jig seems powerless at first glance before the story develops further, having to rely on the American for resources such as ordering from the car in the station. However, displaying a lack of inability to communicate with a waitress at a café didn’t relinquish her power and importance. It was the transformation from a childish girl to a woman through discovery and realization that Jig claims the utmost…

of sweat and grime. I walk out of the train car onto the dirt caked floor of Penn Station. My train whooshes by behind me like a comet. Above me comes a computer-generated voice letting me know where I am. The station is a sea of people. The loud hum of a thousand conversations buzzes in the air. As I walk, I see news stands, fast food places, and small marts. Raggedy homeless people are scattered across the station, while there are also businessmen in suits with a bluetooth in their ear…

the American will not continue regardless of the decision she makes about the baby, Jig retreats from the conversation to engage with her own thoughts. Hemingway reflects these thoughts to readers by setting “Hills Like White Elephants” in a train station nestled between a wide, fertile and beautiful valley and blank barren hills, both representing the choices Jig has. Jig mentions the hills look like white elephants. White elephants are unwanted…

The chief engineer was William J Wilgus and build two version of the terminal before the third and final station designed by Reed and Stem and Warren and Wetmore had been…

house, I was not accustomed to setting an alarm or to following a set routine in the morning. To adjust to the different circumstances that I was faced with, I set my alarm back 20 minutes and ran to the train station daily. In the winter, I would have to walk home from the train station after sunset, yet my inexperience traveling alone in the dark left me fearful of the dangers that may have been lurking around me. To alleviate my anxiety, I would walk home slowly, remaining vigilant of my…
