Reflecting on Chapter fifteen, burnout is “the condition of someone who has become very physically and emotionally tired after doing a difficult job for a long time” (Burnout, 2015). Professionals may become burned-out very quickly. In counseling it is very important to take care of yourself so you do not get burned-out. Our book states “signs and symptoms of burnout include turnovers, absenteeism, lower productivity and psychological problems” (James, 2008, p. 530). There are four stages of…

The Neolithic transition brought with it the change from subsistence farming to sedentary agricultural lifestyles. The development of sedentary farming communities brought the Neolithic era an influx of new technology that makes this era a monumental marker for human history. These communities also brought new techniques for planting, fertilizing, and selecting seeds which all created larger yields and increased the reliance on sedentary cultivation. They also may be responsible for the decline…

A mutation is any change in the DNA sequence. Sometimes a base is deleted or extra bases are added. Most common is a point mutation, where a single base is substituted for another, but some of these occur in the non-coding sequences and become a silent mutation. When a DNA change remains unrepaired in a cell, it is passed down to the offspring. However, most mutations result in recessive genes. Because humans are diploid, meaning that the individual has two sets of chromosomes from each parent,…

During the year of 2013, Brazil was in a place of political turmoil; after years of getting the short end of the stick thanks to an overall incompetence of a corrupt government, a bus fare increase was the tipping point of a much greater development. After a short time and without bringing about revolution, however, the crowds grew quiet again. Why couldn’t we achieve anything? Our people’s claims fell on deaf ears. Couldn’t we have tried harder, louder, more insistently? I believe the apathy…

you to take me to, If with you I should go?” “I have seven ships upon the sea-- The eighth brought me to land-- With four-and-twenty bold mariners, And music on every hand.” She has taken up her two little babes, Kissed them on cheek and chin:“Oh, fare ye well, my own two babes, For I’ll never see you again” (Ballard 20). Her lover informs her that the hill is heaven where they are not bound. Instead they are destined to go to hell. The former lover then breaks the ship in half with his bare…

Introduction Most know the deed that Rosa Parks did, and how she started the Montgomery Bus Boycott. However, few know that the movement actually began when a young fifteen-year-old girl refused her seat to a white woman. This girl was Claudette Colvin. At first, the blacks were too scared to stand up against the injustices they endured, but with the right leaders, they rose up against segregation. Jim Crow Laws Blacks in the 1950s, living in central Alabama, lived a life completely controlled…

Disregarding Sri Lankan culture, the aid groups rushed in with their PTSD diagnostic manuals that don’t match with how Sri Lankans experience trauma. Few groups even bothered to actually register with the government or ask what kind of help the country needed. The aid groups spiraled into chaos where “rivalries broke out between counseling groups over which populations would receive which services” (Watters, 2010, p. 78). Making things even worse, what Watters termed “parachute researchers”…

In his letters and writings, Stroman offer a detailed portrait of his life inside the prison. He mentioned that his days began around 3:00 a.m. with banging and slamming of steel gates and doors. Later, each inmate has a bathroom sized cell. Even in his deepest sleep he could feel vibration in his body. Later, the guard would bark, “Chow Time! Chow Time! Lights on if you are eating.” Further Mark said, there was not much time to snap out of bed and secure the breakfast. If by any chance, the…

The smoky room is filled with stocky men in short lederhosen sporting big, bushy sideburns and unkempt mustaches and heavy-set waitresses outfitted with blue knee-length dirndls carrying up to sixteen mugs of beer while walking down the aisles. The overly crowded tables are festooned with blue and white checkered tablecloths, and numerous people are singing drinking songs, albeit in a rather out of tune fashion. This image of the Hoffbrau Haus is the stereotypical view many Americans hold of…

I believe that juveniles should not be tried as adults in the justice system because the prefrontal cortex is not fully developed until the age of twenty-five. This is responsible for people’s critical thinking and decision making from logical reasoning rather than emotionally. Another reason why juveniles should not be tried as adults is that from people’s teenage years to when they are in their late tweenties and mid-thirties, people drastically change and are much more aware of whats right…
