In his book, Cadillac Desert: The American West and Its Disappearing Water, Marc Reisner’s main thesis is to show the inefficiency, greed, and inherent difficulty in the American West’s never-ending struggle to turn its unwelcoming desert into a lush garden. One of his main sub-points is that the West is not meant to support millions of people. It has a wide range of geographic challenges throughout the entire region. Its inconsistency and diversity is a primary cause of its water problems. For example, Reisner notes that the West consists of “plains so arid that they could barely support bunchgrass; deserts that were fiercely hot and fiercely cold; streams that flooded a few weeks each year and went dry the rest; forests with trees so large it might take days to bring one down; . . . hail followed by drought followed by hail;” (23).

In Madeline Miller’s “Circe”, she weaves the use of tone to show the impact that sexism has on women. When using tone, Miller reflects the strong connection and importance of sexism as a central theme in the novel. Miller likes to illustrate how the misogyny of women shapes Circe and the other female characters in the story. The tone of the novel is dull and resentful as Miller shows us the ways in which sexism shapes the world in which Circe lives in and just women in general. In the novel, Circe can be seen as a symbol of the challenges and challenges women face.
On Saint Patrick’s Day, rather than quaffing down green beer, Darden returned to the studio. “When I returned just two weeks after surgery, the coaches were awesome, they constantly checked up on me and gave me modified exercises.”
My first experience observing a physical therapist, commenced in the summer of 2014. At the time, I was given the opportunity to observe a physical therapist named Jennifer Moreland. Throughout my time observing her, I began to recognize she was not just a physical therapist with her patients. Many times, she took on the role of a consoler, cheerleader, friend and supporter for her patients. Reflecting back on this, I am able to see that the primary reason she has succeeded as a physical therapist; is due to her amiable, encouraging and empathetic nature. These character traits have allowed her to do more than heal patients' musculoskeletal problems. She has also been able to heal hearts, souls and minds by cheering, supporting, listening
His healing encompasses physical fitness, a healthy nutrition lifestyle, and most importantly connecting, aligning, and uniting mind, body, and soul back as one. The expertise of two healers that employ Reiki, Theta, crystal healing, Lemurian healing, and other powerful healing modalities that uproot the energetic blockages are the key to true transformation. It reconnects us to the true essence of all of us as energetic beings and in his story shows the power of unconditional love, forgiveness, and
Agriculture did not occur in the Pacific Northwest because much of its environment was “flanked east and west by the coniferous forests of the Cascades and Coast Range” (Aikens 183). These coniferous forests allowed for vast water system that eventually joined “the Willamette River on its course northward to the Columbia below” (Aikens 183); and resulted in a “gallery forests of deciduous and evergreen trees followed the watercourse, and much of the valley floor was in open grassland with scattered oak groves” (Boyd 67). The coniferous forests and evergreen grasslands for the Pacific Northwest prevented traditional agricultural practices by indigenous settlers, and gave rise to the subsistence “economic pattern of mobile hunting, fishing,
Hi Christine, your female patient’s story inspired me too. It was hard to recover from an injury, and most people did not
In the Sangre de Cristo mountain range in Northern New Mexico lies a hidden gem where thousands of locals flock to in the winter time. I grew up near this mountain range and skied these mountains for most of my life. Taos Ski Valley is elevated 12,400 feet above sea level and receives on average, 300 inches of snow during the winter every year. Some of the most memorable times I’ve had at Taos were skiing down double black diamond runs waist deep in 40 inches of new snow fall.

In the history of literature, there have always been different themes and genres of writing. But few have been as different or unique as that of the “gothic” literature. Of all the gothic authors of history, few writing has captured the mind and plunged it into the depths of fear as that of Edgar Allen Poe. Poe’s “The Cask of Amontillado,” is a story that shows us how deadly being prideful can be. Themes of dishonour, revenge and questionable justice all come together in this story. In this essay, I will discuss how the setting, irony and the lack of certain details all contribute to the gothic theme and the spine-tingling effect of the story.

Through experience, I?ve found that to heal is very different than to be cured. Cure implies a successful outcome and the eradication of disease from the body. Healing on the other hand is born out of self discovery and examination. It is the recovery of the whole self from the trauma of disease. It is my job as a volunteer to aide patients during this laborious journey as much as possible and I believe the first step is to help them change the way they perceive the situation and provide them with inspiration.
