Methods Study Area East Harbor is a 291-ha back-barrier salt marsh and coastal lagoon located within the Cape Cod National Seashore (CCNS), N.Truro, Massachusetts (Thiet et al. 2014a). East Harbor was artificially isolated from Cape Cod Bay in 1868 when the original 300-m wide inlet was diked due to the construction of a causeway for use by trains and automobiles (Portnoy et al. 2005). In 1894, a drainage system was installed that allowed freshwater to escape the system (Portnoy et al. 2006),…

On a nice cool summer morning my father came into my room and rumbled the top of my bed to wake me up, as I turned over he spoke softly, saying to get dressed we are going crabbing. I jumped out of my bed running over to my closet and throwing on a shirt and an old pair of shorts. I ran out of my room and banged on my brothers door to wake him up too. As I sprinted down the stairs I almost fell but I was able to keep my balance. My mother asked if I wanted to eat something before we left. I…

sudden and stunning entranced the little girl. Erutan, legendary in her beauty and protector of forest, field and water dwellers, rose nobly out of the night. Wearing a kaleidoscopic cloak of deer, fish, water and mossy ground swirling around and up her body, Erutan beckoned without words. The little girl approached. Then, Erutan spoke, “You, like I, little girl, love this land, this river and the creatures of each. I shall endow you now with a knowledge that few other mortals have ever…

and Corporeal Bodies? We differentiate three distinct types of beings here. One is the highest good in which nothing can surpass. This highest good is God; God is the only unlimited spirit with no end, no beginning and is not limited by space or time. The unlimited spirit has always been and will always be. The limited spirits are all the angels and human spirits that have a beginning, no end and the human spirits are limited by space and time while the associated corporeal body are living…

getting engaged, she goes and tells her father, the reverend. Elaine is now out of the scene, and as Mortimer was about to tell both of his aunts that he intends to marry Elaine, he finds a dead body in the window seat of the house. He originally thought his brother, Teddy, killed the person whose body he had found in the window seat, and immediately alerts his aunts of his discovery. When he told his aunts they said that they were the ones who killed that man not Teddy, and they did it…

To Live While they wait, she walks around the small living room again, lifting up the corners of the blinds and peeking out into the darkness. All the windows are closed, but she pushes down at each pane a little to be sure. She feels Timmy’s eyes on her back and she wants to scratch her neck with her torn nails. There aren’t many people around anyway. This was never a populous town, true, but now it’s practically empty. Mr. Wilson, a few houses down, left for bigger cities long ago with…

Do you know how it feels to be alone? If yes, you know it gets very depressing when you have no one to confide in. Can you imagine what Emily was going through? I cannot even fathom what she was going through, but I can try to see why Emily was so single-minded and scared to try new things. In the short story “ A Rose for Emily” we are introduced a character named Emily Grierson, right at the beginning of the story author William Faulkner, tells us Emily is dead and everyone from the town is at…

from for toxicology and biological reasons. The medical examiner also cuts a piece of each organ and places them in a small container; the other pieces of the organs are placed in large, clear plastic bag. After all the organs are pulled from the main body cavity, the head is next. The medical assistant scalps the hair and pulls back the scalp, there is a drill used to open the head if needed. In this case, the victim’s skull was fairly cracked and fell apart revealing the brain. The brain is…

situations in which bodies and brains are switched, and then asks the question, whose well-being ought I to be concerned with. By invoking concern, Williams is able to make the reader directly interact with the thought experiments, and, as Nozick points out, tend to come the conclusion “that the people have switched bodies” (Nozick 93). Robert Nozick…

hour. Still after two weeks of fighting in France one thing that haunts me one the numerous corpses littered around the trenches. It’s the smell that stays with me; the mixture of faeces and decaying bodies seemingly blinding my nostrils from anything else. If only the French were to have moved the bodies away from the trenches before they buried them. The corpses have become a part of the trenches. It really doesn’t help the state of mind being reminded you could die and be tossed away like…
