Rhapsody at Chimbiya (Drama) Breaks squeaked and the engine boomed announcing its arrival at Chimbiya bar.

When one pictures Orlando, the first thing that comes to mind is amusement parks, great weather, and perfect vacation getaways. This past weekend, however, shook the Sunshine state—and the nation—to its core as bloodshed overwhelmed the local community.

Shortly after her performance, she…

A Lesson Learned My senior year was a complete disaster. I never took anything serious, and I always waited till the last minute to do everything. All throughout my senior year teachers told me I needed to push myself to achieve a higher grade although my stubborn self never listened.

For my photoethnography project, I decided to observe local dive bar Frank & Marlee’s in Oxford, Mississippi. Frank and Marlee’s hosts a special every Tuesday called “Taco Tuesday” and offers dollar tacos, as well as eight-dollar margarita pitchers.

However even though many people find Frank & Marlee’s accepting and inviting, I discovered many attributes often don’t represent that notion. Todd Lynch and his…

Thomas Watson, former chairman of IBM said, “Nothing so conclusively proves a man’s ability to lead others, as what he does from day to day to lead himself.” In my current position, the best things I can do to strengthen and improve the teaching profession are to teach to the best of my abilities, be a professional, maintain a positive attitude, keep my focus student-centered, and influence other teachers to do the same. One of my fellow teachers, Mrs. Pam Parris, and her exceptional…

Some people who think positive, expect positive results, as we all should. Can those positive thoughts lead to something worse eventually? I have always been taught to think positive, to never let negative thoughts get you down. Always think positive, think it into existence or it will never happen. There are people who have been taught, and…

Every day, parents have a fear of their kids and teens going down a “slippery slope”. This slope may include drinking, smoking, taking drugs, and even running away in the extreme situations. Today, the world is facing the extreme problem of millions of teens running . Going down the dangerous path often causes a troubled kid to be formed.

The patient presents with an exacerbation of a skin issue with no history of any chronic health concerns. Before starting to collect data, I would make sure the patient is comfortable in the room. I would ask the following questions to gather subjective data from the patient. • “When did you first notice the changes on your skin? Did it occur suddenly or gradually?” • “Tell me the time of recurrence?” • “Do you have any pain, itchiness, bleeding, or color changes on the patches? If you have any…
