NFL: An Uncertain Future Concussions have become far too common in the NFL, because helmet-to-helmet hits happen on almost every play. A huge contributor to concussions is when a player gets hit in their head by the crown of another player’s helmet. These helmet-to-helmet hits do draw penalty flags, but players are likely to continue doing it because they are used to tackling by leading with their head. Concussions are becoming more commonplace and this not only makes NFL players miss games,…

of such values. Throughout his Gospel, Luke employs a plethora of literary techniques in Mary’s Song, Jesus’ initial Sermon, and the parables and stories of the Rich and the Kingdom of God, the Rich Fool, the Shrewd Manager, and The Rich Man and Lazarus in order to portray a theme of universality and to call followers to live simply and put aside material pursuits and worldly gains. Overall, discipleship to Jesus involves both a physical and metaphorical leveling of the playing field in front…

to the story of Lazarus in the New Testament. Lazarus was man who met the end of his days and was at rest in a tomb. Jesus arrives to the town and is asked to raise Lazarus from the dead. Jesus asks God for the strength needed to demonstrate the powers of the Messiah and says “with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. And he that was dead came forth” (Dostoyevsky 260). In the novel, Porfiry asks whether or not Raskolnikov believes in God, and if he believes the truths behind Lazarus’ story.…

miracles that proved Jesus’ deity the most were those in which He proved His power over death. One instance is the resurrection of Lazarus, a man from Bethany with whom Jesus was closely acquainted, found in John 11. Word of Lazarus falling ill was sent by his sisters, Mary and Martha. Upon arriving to the house of Mary and Martha a few days later, Jesus was told that Lazarus had lain in the grave for four days. Martha approached Jesus and mourned saying if Jesus had come sooner, her brother…

Raskolnikov becomes more and more guilt-ridden. This example, as well as others are signs of God and religion, which are prevalent and provide the plot and the theme of forgiveness significant support; Alyona’s cross, forgiveness of sin, and the story of Lazarus all add to the guilt Raskolnikov is facing. These examples all add to the difficult concealment of Raskolnikov’s murders, as each push him further to delivering his confession in the hope of forgiveness.…

public at the time, in ways mere prose or photographs might miss. The first poem, a sonnet entitled The New Colossus, written by Emily Lazarus in 1883, describes the Statue of Liberty in New York harbor. It begins with a comparison to the Colossus of Rhodes, a massive statue of Helios from antiquity.…

Colossus, by Emma Lazarus, infers that there is a giant that guards the door to the kingdom so many wish to enter, but in fact, it turns out to be a welcoming by the Statue of Liberty that inspires hope into the author, and presumably, all those who are allowed to enter the United States of America through Ellis Island. From the beginning of the poems first verse it is clear that this giant is not as it seems as it is, "not like the brazen giant of Greek fame," but, as Lazarus states, "A mighty…

First, the five-stage process of caregivers’ adjustment is adapted from the adaptation-coping model applied for patients with dementia of Dröes (1991) and Finnema et al. (2000) (Dröes et al., 2010, p. 144). Although the model of Dröes (1991) and Finnema et al. (2000) focuses on patients with dementia, not their family caregivers, their proposed model depicts a process with specific stages which concern coping with disabilities and an effort to preserve social and emotional balances. Dröes (1991)…

study by Doctor Lazarus Arthur titled Improving Psychiatric Service Through Mystery Shopping, tells that “Persons pretending to be patients have found discrepancies between the service promised and the service delivered, leading to positive changes, such as reduced waiting times, increased retention of patients within medical practices, better explanations of procedures and proposed treatments, and improved encounters with office staff, physicians, and other healthcare providers (Lazarus,…

wall is more than just a wall. It has negative symbolism that will make the United States look like a prison. People will no longer be able to look at our beautiful country the way Emma Lazarus described it. “From her beacon hand glows a warm wide welcome.” This statement from The New Colossus written by Emma Lazarus has a serious meaning. It means that the united states welcome everyone no matter what color, sex, race, or nationality they are. Yes, people have to take a test to become a…
