People who go through the hardship of losing a limb go through an incredible amount of pain each day. Not only this, but attempting to get a prosthetic limb that may allow them to function as they used to, is not only a difficult, costly process but it also does not lessen the emotional pain of having to live without a limb.

He does not want an orientation to be just a jumble of procedural sentences printed from a printer for every new employee to read as if there is nothing interesting in the office. He is saying that an orientation should be weird and strange so that the new employee is interested in the job and is excited to work along with some of the weirdest…
Case studies Many cases in the literature have utilized CT imaging to address bioarchaeological questions; however, predominately they focus on mummification studies, with only a few cases in reference to bone specifically. One such case was in the article Non-invasive Archaeology of Skeletal Material by CT scanning and Three-dimensional Reconstruction by Lynnerup et al. (1997). In this case the skeletal remains are of a very fragile and delicate 7000 year old ancient Sumerian skeleton that was…

Have you ever wondered where you will end up in the future? Where you want to be, who you want to be, or what you want to do? When I grow up, I want to work at Pixar making the scenes and characters that you see in the animated movies. It’s a long road to get there, but it’s one that I’m willing to take. To create the movies you see in the theaters, Pixar uses Blender (not the one on the kitchen counter), Gimp, and many physical art forms too. Blender is where you create the models, animate…

These prints are considered original works of art even though they can exist in multiples. This art is one of the oldest forms of art in the world. Historically, printmaking was used to spread religious ideas or images. The process originated in China at around 105 A.D. but it did not gain more use in Europe until around the mid-15th century.
