She pulls out a chair and places her unfinished assignment in front of me. Her tousled hair drops above her eyebrows. Light freckles stretch across her cheeks following no particular pattern, no set arrangement. Old wounds and sunburns patch her arms. Mismatched socks wrap around her ankles, and a loose shirt falls over her shoulders. "Can you help me with my homework?" I spent my weeks at the boys and girls club after school, sitting in the corner with my familiar books and pencils, rejecting…
Visiting UCSD campus was on my to-do list for a while however I never had a chance to do it. I did a small research on how to get there and how to find the Geisel Library which was my main reason of going to UCSD this time. When I arrived on campus I did not expect that it would hard to find such large building like the Geisel Library, but I spend some time going on circles and asking for the directions. After a good 15 minutes I finally parked my car on the closest to the library parking lot.…
actions. Cho writes, “Generation after generation, we martyrs, like Eric and Dylan, will sacrifice our lives to fuck you thousand folds for what you Apostles of Sin have done to us.” This idea follows a very traditional trajectory of martyrdom, building one’s martyrdom off of a martyr that came before, not unlike the origins of early Christian martyrs, who strived to martyr themselves after Christ himself. In fact, Cho’s entire manifesto is rich with allusions to the Christian Bible, drawing on…
Thus, while the animal research is strongly indicative of potential outcomes, one cannot make a direct correlation between prenatal stress in humans and negative outcomes for unborn fetuses. There is an inherent problem, too, with this research trajectory: it would be considered, at best, unethical to subject human participants to the same type of stressors that the rodent and primate subjects received. Researchers who study the impact of prenatal stress on human fetuses are relegated to…
Education is a soul satisfier and at times a wallet replenisher. Yet, there is over $1 trillion in student debt. About 40 million students owe federal student loans. In addition, students could not file for bankruptcy. There are a few requirements, the student must have, in order to not go through the same ditch that previous students have fallen. In spite of enormous debt, students need to prepare both academical and mental, this will enhance their college outcomes. People argue…
In order to expand my understanding and advance my practical skills in looking after patients with haematological disorders, a professional nursing body I would need to join is the Cancer Nurses Society of Australia and receive specific training in administering chemotherapy drugs (Clinical Oncological Society of Australia, 2008). As a result, receiving competency will ensure that chemotherapy medications are stored appropriately, adequate training in the management of adverse events, safe…
Above is an image of a field goal on a football field and a kicker kicking the football with two different trajectories. In Figure 3 the image shows the distance height and destination of the ball through it’s journey this is very similar to our design as our ball would travel a similar path the ball would when the kicker kicks the ball. Although the ball is not…
Religious conviction in the area led to mass migration and refugee-seeking. In Calvin’s case, he left France at the age of twenty-six as a refugee and never even got to return home. He saw the identity of the Christian as a “stranger and alien” and the trajectory of the Christian journey as a sojourner. Dr. Lim then goes on to explain that “love of neighbor is not dependent upon manner of men but looks to God… Thus the LORD commands all human beings without…
doctrine of stare decisis loses its practical significance. Stare decisis should never be “a mechanical formula of adherence to the latest decision,” but rather a guide when circumstances have not warranted a change. In a Quill concurring opinion, Justices Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy, and Clarence Thomas stated that while they supported the conclusion to overrule the due process conclusion of National Bellas Hess, they would reaffirm the Commerce Clause aspect of the physical presence…
The subject of this next SLP will be the statue of David. While researching Bernini and the Baroque era, I discovered that he too, had sculpted a statue of David and that it was considered a ground breaking piece. Through my readings I discovered that aside from Michelangelo and Bernini, that Donatello had rendered his own version of David also. Donatello and Michelangelo were both Renaissance artists and their statues were of course influenced by the style of the period. My focus is going to be…
