Beep! Beep! The shrieking of an alarm clock always puts students in a bad mood, especially on an early Monday morning. As students, we are always tired. We wake up early and go to school, not paying any attention to our morning lessons. Students are constantly tired and will never get that sleep back. Even naps can't help our sleep deprivation. Many parents and teachers have noticed this and ask, "Should our schools start later?" Many people have a lot of controversy about this topic. There are…

length of stay at the hospital. Although, the mode maintain minute volume at the set levels, it may not maintain alveolar ventilation to regulate patient’s PaCO2. In order to fix this problem, practitioners must set the low tidal volume alarm and high respiratory rate alarm appropriately to the patient’s needs. Furthermore, practitioners must be vigilant when using MMV to wean patients from initial full ventilatory…

It had only been a week since my last major mission, and I was already planning another one. After I had gotten back to my hideout, I had changed shirts and grabbed my macrobinoculars and rifle before leaving again. Which lead to me sitting on a rooftop across from an Imperial base roughly 500 miles away from the one that had blown up. I held my binoculars with one hand, jotting down notes in my open notebook about their security with the other. Recon today, strike day after tomorrow, I decided…

A heart, like a magnet, with return home, on the opposite sides of the world or not. Sometimes it takes a great journey to appreciate the little things in life. It took a trip away from home for me to realize this. This past summer, I spent 5 weeks of my sunny days in Kansas City, Missouri for a ballet intensive. This trip helped me realize the importance of family and comfort. Some people say, ‘home is where the heart is’, during my experience, this statement reined true. I believe that the…

It’s a Monday morning when your eyes open to the annoying sound of your phone alarm. You swiftly silent it while you proceed to steal an extra 15 minutes of sleep. Assuming you are similar to most Americans, you probably walked to the bathroom to get ready for your day. Brushing teeth, washing one’s face, and combing one’s hair are just a few examples. Once fully dressed and ready to leave your house or dorm, you hastily rush out the front door. Pause. How many times did you look in the mirror,…

A business phone system not only improves the customer experience, but also provides the business with a cost-effective and efficient way to route calls. However, this is only true if the system is running properly and is maintained by knowledgeable personnel. As with any type of technology, over time parts and components can cease to function and will need to be replaced. Depending on the system purchased, these replacement parts can either be nonexistent or very expensive to procure. This is…

Chapter One : The myths that we “debunked” during lecture are really important. In the beginning we learned how to understand these cases and how to look for other sources to prove them wrong. When we finished reviewing these myths, it left me mindblown! I learned lots of information on how opposites attract, the lie detector test, and different learning styles. The scientific method is something that we should have learned about in elementary school but we reviewed it again because these are…
