Sensory Processing Disorder involves a continuous interaction between the environment and the brain to perceive information through the seven senses (auditory, olfactory, tactile, visual, gustatory, proprioceptive, and vestibular) and create an appropriate response (Byrne, 2009; Katz, 2006; Miller et al., 2009; Parham & Mailloux, 2015; Walbam, 2013; Withrow, 2007 as cited in Goodman-Scott & Lambert, 2015, p. 275). This neurobiological process is critical in the first ten years of life because it…

For this project, I am focusing on Flora from the book, The Game of Love and Death, by Martha Brockenbrough. I chose the song, Dream a Little Dream of Me, sung by Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong for Flora because it sounds like a song Flora would sing at the Domino. The jazzy trumpet with the noticeable walking bassline, paired with the chemistry of Fitzgerald’s and Armstrong’s voices produces a song that undeniably represents Henry and Flora. When I heard the version of this song sung by…

thrice his head thus waving up and down” (2.1.104-105). He want to act crazy to help view the way Claudius guilt and the way he would act. Hamlet made a plan to put on a play about Claudius killing his father to see if he feels any type of guilt. “Hum, I have heard that guilty creatures sitting at a play have, by the very cunning scene (2.2.617-619). The plan was helpful to see if Claudius was guilty or not.…

The bar is quiet. I mean, not that it isn’t always quiet – what with us beingthe third dive bar on the one street, which is really just a mesh of Trost nightlife that spreads out five blocks in either direction, which makes the competition more than tough on a good day – but tonight is practically empty. We usually have a couple regulars who slump over the bar from sundown to sunrise, but today there are more stools empty than occupied. Maybe there’s a game on? But that wouldn’t explain why…

“Embryonic stem cell research will prolong life, improve life and give hope for life to millions of people.” This quote by Jim Ramstad is about the benefits of Embryonic Stem Cell Research. “Stem cells provide an opportunity to investigate the mechanisms that regulate embryonic development, cellular differentiation, and organ maintenance” (Ramalho-Santos and Willenbring 35-38). Embryonic stem cell research has been around for many years. It has proven to be very beneficial to the medical world,…

When Rosa was Magda out on the yard runs quickly to retrieve the shawl and quiet the baby, but she is too late. When she returns to the yard, she sees Magda being carried over the head of a guard who then threw her on an electret fence,"The fence hums as if its alive" electrocuting her and burning her body black. The event that took place in front of Rosa left her breathless because when she first saw her daughter running out…

The overall length of the short film affects its structure, characterisation, plot and especially story. ‘The longer a short film lasts, the more the audience wants it to be a story. They want it to mean something.’ (Cowgill (2005 :9)). This means that shorter films, up to 5 minutes, are usually a comedy sketch with a punch line, such as in Knob, or a horror with a twist, like Selfie From Hell. The reveal or surprising ending seems to be common in the under 5 minute short, as the film has little…

does indeed, exist. “It’s the beginning of Summer in America’s cement cities, in the deep hidden valleys of the country and the loop-de-loop sidewalkless streets of the suburbs. For many adults who are really closet kids, this means that their blood hums with a hint of freedom, the old beloved promise of long aimless days of dirt and sweat and sunshine, t-shirts stained with kool-aid and flip-flops gray with street grit or backyard dust...But that sort of Summer has given the way to something…

The play Equus is a unique story, to say the least. The visual and sensory aspect of the play is very interesting because of its many layers like playing with the actors and the audience’s placement on stage, the stage itself, the lights, the sounds and the costumes. This play also has many different themes and it makes the reader and\or audience question many common beliefs and perceptions about life and people. The setting and the meaning of the production are very connected and depend on each…

I shrank back --but the closing walls pressed me resistless onward. At length for my seared and writhing body there was no longer an inch of foothold on the firm floor of the prison. I struggled no more, but the agony of my soul found vent in one loud, long, and final scream of despair. I felt that I tottered upon the brink. My right hand was my last chance to survive. Death was closer and closer. My slippery fingers on the bricks were the antecessors of my fall into the abyss. Could I resist…
