Laparoscopic Gastric Band Surgery Laparoscopic gastric band surgery is done to help you lose weight. A band is put around the upper part of your stomach. This makes a small pouch which can hold only a small amount of food. The lower, bigger part of your stomach is below the band. The two parts stay connected by a small opening between the upper and the lower parts. Food goes through the opening to the lower part of your stomach more slowly than before the surgery. You will feel full with…
Much of the imagery of Jane Eyre is obvious-the chestnut tree, the grim landscapes, the red room that is like Hell. But two images are so pervasive that they serve as a substructure for the entire novel: fire and water-and their extremes, the flames of lust and the ice of indifference. The fire is in Jane's spirit and in Rochester's eyes. Jane desires "life, fire, feeling" (p. 105); Rochester has "strange fire in his look" (p. 145). If these two are fire, St. John Rivers (note the last name)…
liberals. These are the laws that Mr. Schekly is fighting tooth and nail to defend. Governor Birch has turned back these laws in Virginia. He has returned natural rights to each individual by neutering government. As liberty begins to flow through the veins of every red-blooded Virginian, we have all begun to realize the evils that Mr. Schekly and his ilk have wrought for too long,” Tabitha…
purified water, the egg deliberately rumble, forming deep layers of fractured egg shells. With a shocking ray of dazzling light, Chicken’lil burst out of the ocean like a spouting fountain and formed a row of floating water. Knowing the birth of Chicken-Lil, Nature summoned the legendary Puu, an old fat panda mastered in the art of fighting, to the young chicklet and hoped for the best as Puu trained the young child. Meanwhile, under countless, deep, fissured bedrocks and layers of overflowing…
Slavery, even until this day, is a heavy topic and a topic which can bring about the strongest of debates. Was slavery needed? Was it inhumane, or was it something that had to happen for black people to survive during the Union? There were people who felt that slavery was what had been intended for black people due to how inferior their minds were compared to white men and how they were just like children, they had to have everything overseen for them. Now there are the people on the other side…
The air was crisp; dew dripped off of the freshly mowed lawn. A slight breeze swung me softly side to side. There I was, on the ragged concrete steps, leaning morosely aside the brick pillar. It was a beautiful day, but the atmosphere surrounding me was miserable. Impatiently tapping my foot, I looked up and down the street to see if my friends were near. As I turned my head right, a single tear fell from my face making an imperfect circle between my dirt-coated Converse; I saw them just as they…
wounds', which provided maximal emphasis on ‘the robust fire rushing through his veins'. Nonetheless, the words were also chosen to evoke an emotional response towards Jekyll and sympathize with his ‘situation'. The Poem was written free verse, due to the focus on meaning rather than flow. Originally the Poem was written with the objective to write the Poem rhythmic flow. However, numerous times lines were to sacrifice deep meaning to flow, so instead the result was the free-verse with the…
Lack of proper communication across multidisciplinary teams leads to serious adverse effects and medical errors. Furthermore, it results in the inefficient use of healthcare resources. Research indicates that ineffective communication among healthcare professionals is one of the leading causes of medical errors and patient harm (Mason, Gardner, Outlaw, & O'Grady, 2016). The Joint Commission cited communication as the core component of teamwork and the root cause in nearly 60 percent of sentinel…
It was on the corner of Shirley and Charlotte Streets a horrific accident had taken place. A black Honda accord coupe with chrome rims and blue lights had climbed half way up a lamp pole, but had seemed to collide with a white Toyota Camry first, with a yellow sticker on the back glass that read “ baby on board”. The smell of gas and fear saturate the air and quickly filled the nostrils of those nearby. Shattered glass and broken orange and red light pieces decorated the road around the scene.…
