“Bring ‘em down! Him and whatever filth he’s got laying around up there with him!” he bellowed before muttering under his breath, “That idiotic, spineless grouser.” And looking neither to his left nor right, the man spoke with sheer confidence amidst concurrently, still, admiring his weapon and it’s work thus far; and promptly after concluding his demand, his two cohorts leapt into action, from the stage onto the floor, and began shoving their…

The LE was not tested for tone, strength or ROM due to subluxation of his hips at this time, however LE tone was observed as high extensor tone.

Everyone makes judgements of their surroundings: it’s a part of being human. We fit things into groups, like pets, scary things, or things we can sit on. Within these groups, there are smaller groups, like separating pets into dogs and cats. Those groups can continue to get more and more specific. At a glance, a person can determine the difference between a German Shepherd and a chihuahua and act accordingly. This is true for people too. Our society claims to be “colorblind,” but when was the…

I don 't want to write, be creative, or write essays about any historical event.” I was not surrounded by many lovers of writing growing up. That is why I appreciate writing as much as I do.
