Light therapy

brought into the hospital and Michael signs the consent form and the paramedics restrain her onto a gurney. The strange thing about this is that Sally does not fight or resist them. She keeps on rambling on and on about everyone being a genius, light, and what light is about. As Sally is sent to a psychiatric hospital where she is given treatment that seems to make her a shell of her former self. This does not imply that everyone with a mental disorder is violent;…

“Steel plates are commonly attached to each other with rivets, which are slipped into holes in the plates and rounded over with hammers. The hotness of the rivets makes them easier to round over, but their hotness has another important advantage in providing a tight fit. What is it? Explain why.” This relates to one of the characteristics of heat, in that heated objects expand, then contract when the temperature decreases, since the molecules move faster in heat and slow in the cold. The hot…

Color Therapy, or Chromotherapy, is used as an alternative to medicine and is considered to be a type of pseudoscience. Color therapy is a holistic and non-invasive, yet powerful, type of therapy that goes back to thousands of years. Color therapy can be found in India, China and Egypt texts that are ancient. Color is a light of wavelengths and energies used in color therapy. The light affects all living cells. When this light is used correctly, it can have a healing effect on humans, animals…

device that, unlike like everything else here, is not made of rock, but human flesh and a small computer screen. A thin beam ignites from a hole in the flesh and rushes over Martin’s body, he watches in agony as his bones reconstruct themselves in the light. Only to have Zowler destroy them over twice more. Unable to speak, or even make a noise, Martin feels his tongue dry up, it’s like he’s chewing on granite. Next comes his nose, he watches as his pasty skin hardens into a reddish rock. The…

part of the eye which include iris, pupil and anterior chamber. It forms anterior 1\6 of the outer coat of the globe.[1] The sclera and the conjunctiva overlap the cornea more vertically than horizontally. Together with the lens, the cornea refract light, and it is approximately 43 diopters of the total refractive power[2]. The curvature of the lens, on the other hand, can be adjusted to tune the focus depending upon the object’s distance.[2] The cornea has unmyelinated nerve endings sensitive…

While rummaging through a drawer in search of an old photograph, I came across a picture of a teenage girl. Dressed in her navy and gold pep club uniform, she had positioned her pom poms so that they covered each hip. Her golden- blond hair swirled past her shoulders and as my eyes traveled downward I was shocked to see she had missing body parts--someone had taken a pair of scissors and cut her legs completely off. Tossing the photo aside, I continued my search. As I sifted through…

Have these underground houses always been this beautiful? Margot thought to herself, as she observed the street lights outside with no people from her resting chair. She closes her eyes and imagines a place where she hears the ocean waves crash against rocks, she feels the cool breeze in her face and when she looks up she sees the sky aflame with the setting sun, shimmering magically. She feels the hot sand in between her toes. Somehow, this relaxes her. Margot still imagines and remembers the…

in the universe: a black hole. Black holes interact with light, reflecting so little, that they do not let any escape. That is dark but the intense energies created by black holes in the process of eating stars is anything but dark. The level of complexity of light and dark that we see in the universe can also be seen in James Baldwin’s short story “Sonny’s Blues”. In “Sonny’s Blues”, James Baldwin looks past the normal literary uses of light and dark imagery as representing good and bad, but…

Taking a walk in Tate Modern I noticed that the light intensity as well as the light distribution is different in each space: the galleries from the Turbine Hall and the halls. In the galleries there are glowing light boxes displayed on the ceilings. The boxes are made out of glass and a steel frame. In addition to these there are also attached movable light bulbs on the steel skeleton of the boxes. In his article, John Hirst describes the inside of a light box: ‘Internally the boxes have…

Effects of Social Media Before social media existed the way people met each other was through face to face communication. Now when walking down the sidewalk people pretend to be on their phones so they do not have to talk or acknowledge each other. People now days lack social/people skills. Social media over the past couple of years have taken control of people’s lives. Social media is not just taking over people’s lives it is also effecting people’s brains, behavior and thinking. Social…
