Thirst

individuals drink at least 64oz of water per day (Schols, De Groot, Van Der Cammen, & Olde Rikkert, 2009). This is due to the fact that as a person ages the amount of water in their body decreases due to decrease in kidney function and possible side effects of medications that may contain diuretics (Schols, De Groot, Van Der Cammen, & Olde Rikkert, 2009). Inadequate water intake is often the cause of dehydration, but there can be many other causes as well including side effects of prescription medication like diuretics or chronic illnesses such as diabetes (Gaspar, 2011). Aging itself makes people less aware of thirst and also gradually lowers the body’s ability to regulate its fluid balance (Gaspar, 2011). If it is hot or the elderly individual has been more active, they may need additional water to replace fluids lost. Elderly people often experience a waning in thirst sensation as they age which makes causes them to not feel thirsty and discourages them from hydrating as often as they should (Schols, De Groot, Van Der Cammen, & Olde Rikkert, 2009). Individuals should include water in their diet as much as possible because it great at hydrating the body and does not contain calories or unhealthy ingredients like fruit juice or soda. Dehydration is so dangerous because many of the symptoms of dehydration (confusion, dizziness, and increased heart rate) can be mistaken for some common characteristics of elderly people and so are often discounted and disregarded (Schols, De…

done? I have given up, all is hopeless. I will die either from thirst or mutiny, whichever comes first. Captain’s log: July 23, 1867. Out of curiosity, I emerged from my cabin below deck only to find four of my crew members remained. Dave was missing. I assumed he was killed in the fight yesterday and thrown overboard due to a large dark stain on the deck. No one has said a word about the fight. We were all just sitting around wishing for something or anything to happen. It made me feel good…

The Thirst Project, My inspiration. “663 million people on our planet do not have access to safe, clean drinking water.” (thirstproject.org). That is what the Thirst Project was built to change. (I’ve always thought the thirst project was a cool idea) Ever since I heard of this project I’ve wanted to learn more. I was first exposed to it in the summer of 2015 when Show Choir camp came around, and our choreographer Damon Brown told us about this project he’s in and what they do. The summer before…

state of mind deteriorates, and there is lots of evidence that shows the growth of his ruthlessness and thirst for power. When Macbeth and Lady Macbeth decide to murder King Duncan, this is the beginning of Macbeth’s thirst for power. When Macbeth and Banquo first come across the three witches, they hail to Macbeth as Thane of Glamis than Thane of Cawdor and lastly as the King of Scotland. As the witches prophecies begin to come true, this is what sparks Macbeth’s idea to kill King Duncan. In…

In William Shakespeare’s play Macbeth, Macbeth’s thirst for power in Act 2 Scene 1, reveals his unstable mind state and how he uses his fear and uses it for newfound conviction and aggression to kill King Duncan. Throughout the beginning of the soliloquy Shakespeare’s style of writing paints Macbeth as a delusional figure who wants nothing but to become king. As seen in (34) Shakespeare uses “clutch” to depict Macbeth’s longing for strength to kill Duncan. Macbeth becomes distraught as he begins…

Thirst For Power In The Tragedy of Julius Caesar The Tragedy of Julius Caesar is one of Shakespeare's most recognized and studied works in history. Throughout the play many problems arise which cause people’s judgment to cloud, which result in flawed thinking and irrational behavior, but there are only a few influential ones. One of these problems was power.Through a myriad of Caesars followers become jealous of his power, Caesar still wanted more. The thirst for power is the biggest problem in…

At first his thirst for revenge makes him sound like a rabid animal who will do anything to kill. When Marcellus and Horatio first hear and see the ghost they tell Hamlet it’s all a fake and not to listen. That it could be some form of Satan. Hamlet explains that “Why, what should be the fear? I do not set my life in a pins fee.” (Act 1 Scene 4 70-71) This makes me seem that Hamlet does not value his life, but he takes into consideration in figuring out more about the ghost before killing…

Floor my visual project I chose to recreate a commercial based on satire and comedy, to add what was lacking in the commercial thirst for the extraordinaire I added logos and a ethos. I chose this to give that commercial more credibility. My goal is to prove that it is simple to add logos and ethos. The original commercial involved little to no logic so I added the content of the water and add for ethos I added a quality statement, which in turn would make the commercial much more effective.…

Napoleon does not seem to be satisfied with what he has. Instead, he secures his authoritative figure and the pigs’ position so that the pigs are placed at a more superior level to the others. For example, his decision of building a schoolroom exclusively for educating the pigs, not only differentiates the pigs from the labouring classes, but more importantly, it is a clear illustration of Napoleon’s thirst for power due to his intention to indoctrinate the young pigs on how ideal a leader he…
