We were in the back by one of the geysers on our way to morning glory pool when a family next to us pointed out an animal in the river.

Tumor cells from younger patients were sensitive to BCNU, but cells from older patients barely responded to the BCNU. Only a few studies evaluate age as a parameter of response. Older patients may have to take medicine due to chronic illnesses, and this means that there…

Which I interpret as, God is one, and that nothing is comparable…

Their kids went to a nice private school, and had the latest in kiddy fashion (my 6 year old cousin had her own iphone 6 plus). When asked about the drought, my eleven year old cousin dressed in a nice button down shirt and khaki pants replied with “What drought?”. “Alright”, I thought, “Maybe he’s too young to know about the drought”. But what really took me by surprise was the fact that my…

The Circle of Life in the Ecchoing Green, by William Blake Blake uses the symbolic nature of the world in the Ecchoing Green to describe the stages of life, and how life is an echo that repeats itself over and over until the final stage of life: Death. He does this by using the fresh beginning of spring in the first stanza, the reminiscence of old people in the second stanza, and the darkening events that evening holds in the third stanza. The Ecchoing Green is a Ballade, which is a sonnet that…
