Melchior Adam Wiekard was a German physician who, in 1775, wrote a medical text book in which five and a half pages in the third chapter are devoted to an Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) like illness. This appears to be the first record of such a disorder, predating Still by more than a hundred and twenty years. Wiekard describes inattentiveness as more common in children and women, more common in the young than the old, more common in someone who is happy than in someone who is…

The development of the legend of king Arthur spans more than one thousand years. From the briefest mentions of a valiant warrior that fended off the Anglo-Saxon invasions of the island, to the elaborate in depth legend of a man destined to rule England with his knights of the round table. The development of this legend is a fascinating insight to how history was written, and more interestingly not written, and who ended up writing the version that stood the test of time. History is often written…

Realization The table was slightly illuminated by the dim, golden light from the lamp, casting blurred shadows against the walls. Papers were strewn everywhere across the wooden surface, rustling gently as a cool wind drifted through the open windows. The places that the lamp’s meager light could not reach were slightly lit up by the soft, silver moonlight. With a small huff of breath, I pinched my nose bridge, trying to fend off the headache that was steadily throbbing through my brain. As…

bed."Wacha, ya take home last night?" My brows furred not fully comprehending what he meant. Then he rolled himself off of the bed, ducked underneath it and retrieved the satchel I brought to the party the night before. He swung it before me like pendulum compelling me to remember the wild night that just happened. "Now you remember," he said smiling, "I saw you take some kind of book as we raised hell from its depths. You should have seen your face. It was like watching a movie scene, wind…

Justin Anthony Straggi Mr. Matthew Kaplan English IV 17 November 2014 Edgar Allan Poe’s Themes, Techniques, and Styles Typical, Hackneyed Introduction that will put MK to sleep. Introduces something involving Poe’s eclectic amalgamation of detective novels, dark poetry, satires, comedy, and reviews. Justin Anthony is too lazy to do this right now so he will refrain, thus potentially annoying MK. Yawn. A recurring technique in Poe’s stories is enclosed environments. He tends to confine his…

My life began March 25, 1999 in a hospital in Michigan. I came out screaming and kicking until my mother complained to the doctor to settle me down. The doctor notified my mother that many babies cry much worse than this and I was absolutely normal. My mother, Cassaundra Kindley, and father, Richard Kindley, brought me home to my older brother, Caleb Kindley. Caleb, like always, was happy to see me. Before my mother had set me down, Caleb had already asked to hold me. At the time he was only two…

My husband and I just know the second National Great Depression will soon become a reality. With the way fuel prices are climbing, other things we need to survive will soon have their prices rise along with fuel. We are taking steps to prepare for this. My husband and I make a total of $2,300 per month. That is not too bad in the part of the country we live in, but as gas and other expenses continue to rise, we seem to have less and less money per month. I am sure other Americans are having the…
