Fear is so deeply embedded in the human genome, as a defense mechanism. It is so old it is coded into the oldest part of the human nervous system. Throughout history, fear has been used to manipulate whole populations into starting wars, revolts, genocides, and discrimination. Never has that been more true than in Adolf Hitler’s Germany, his rise led to the deadliest conflict in human history, World War II. His consolidation of power and control over the people of Germany, can be attributed to using fear as a weapon of manipulation. In the Garden of Beasts by Erik Larson, follows the first American ambassador into this dystopia, and the fear he experiences while there. Erik Larson chose to set In The Garden of Beasts in Hitler’s Berlin to
“ I used to think Michael Jordan was the Babe Ruth of Basketball.” Bulls owner Jerry Reindolf once said. “ I have now come to believe that Babe Ruth is the Michael Jordan of baseball.” (Pietrusza 6). But it was not always like that, some people did not think Michael Jordan was all that good. “Before one game Michael Jordan was chasing down the Olympians practice ball. It rolled over to Celtic star Larry Bird. Bird picked up the ball but instead of flipping it to Jordan, he sneered and then drop-kicked it back over Jordan’s head. “ Bird was showing me it was all business now, and I was beneath him” Jordan once recalled “ I didn't forget”(Pietrusza 24). He did not forget because he help them win a gold medal and he became the most decorated star in the
Dentistry has always been on my mind ever since I watched the Pixar film, “Finding Nemo.” Finding Nemo was the first time I ever witnessed a dentist in action, and although it was quite traumatizing because of how the patient was screaming in the chair and how Pixar decided to use a little girl, who wore an intimidating style of braces and hurt fishes on her free time, as one of the antagonists in the film, I was curious to know what was happening in that chair that the director did not want the audience to see. Despite this, the combination of these negative portrayals in Finding Nemo did not make a dental office my most favourite place in the world; however, my opinion soon changed when I met my first dentist, Dr. Le.
With my early trips to the dentist and the natural loss of my baby teeth having sparked an interest in dentistry before I really knew what being a dentist meant, I began shadowing to further explore the profession. As I watched a tooth take shape from a blob of acrylic under the experienced hand of the dentist I was shadowing, I was filled with the same awe and satisfaction that I gain from the piano. Dr. Aboud repeatedly positioned the temporary crown in the patient’s mouth, checked his bite, and painstakingly continued to adjust the crown until the fit was just right. Though I have wanted to be a dentist for almost as long as I have played the piano, my interest in dentistry grew
Below, Dr. Stephen Leidenheimer and his fellow associates explain why it’s a great idea to visit an all-in-one dentist:
Though propaganda has never been a substitute for military strength, extensive resources, or skillful negotiation, it has often played an important role in wartime strategy.(Propaganda,1) Propaganda really influnced both sides of World War II. In this paper I will show why the Nazi party best benifited from the use of prapaganda. Adolf Hilter use it to turn people against jews, blacks and about every one else that was not German and he also use it to make people want to join Nazi army. Franklin Roosvelt or F.D.R also use the science of propaganda to turn people against Germany, Italy and Japan. Hitler had first become aware of propaganda and its uses before the First World War. During the war he saw the
The United States Marine Corps recruiter may not have promised me a rose garden, but she did say my time in the service would help me become a more productive member of society; she was not lying. The Marine Corps provided 13 years of varied job experience that would not have been obtainable as a civilian. Although I developed many skills while serving in the military, I believe integrity, accountability, and a positive work ethic were the most important at preparing me for my role in the private sector.
No matter what your feelings are about going to the dentist, there's one aspect we can all agree we despise: the drill. Luckily there's new technology in dental work that helps avoid this loud and painful dental procedure. It's called air abrasion! Haven't heard of it? That's because a lot of dentists haven't branched out and embraced this technology, but the people in Kalispell, MT, are in for a treat. Greenery Park Dentistry believes in "Technology For Your Benefit." Ronald Davis, the lead dentist at Greenery Park Dentistry, continues to add new ways of making their services relaxing and comfortable, and air abrasion is just one of the innovations he has incorporated into his practice.
“The dentist couldn’t find any problem, but Lemon kept insisting, so the man finally shrugged and shot in the Novocain and yanked out a perfectly good tooth. There was some pain, no doubt, but in the morning Curt Lemon was all smiles.” (O’Brien pg. 84)

There are many causes of dental phobia and reasons why individuals just do not want to visit the dentist bi-yearly for an exam or even for further procedures. While a lot of causes are unknown, there are some that are more obvious. Some people have a generalized fear of pain. This is a very common reason for an individual to skip the dentist office altogether. This reason of phobia is usually caused by an unpleased or painful previous dental experience or from someone else’s story about their negative experiences. An article from Web MD called Easing Dental Anxiety in Adults states, “Thanks to the many advances in dentistry made over the years, most of today’s dental procedures are considerably less painful or even pain-free” (2016).. A second cause behind some people’s dental phobia is fear of injections or fear of injection failure. The majority people are very afraid of needles. This fear increases when it involves needles inserted into their oral cavity. (Colgate, 2016). Some people even fear that the anesthesia has failed and it did not relieve them of their pain before the dental treatment begins. Along with the fear of injections comes the fear of anesthetic side effects. Some individuals dread the side effects that anesthesia is likely to cause, such as dizziness, nausea, and feeling faint. Others do not like the loss of feeling they experience in their oral cavity. A third cause of dental phobia is the feeling of helplessness and loss of control. People
“Security isn’t so much a problem in the school, but this is another precaution that we can take,” says Pat Gallagher, an American physicist and the eighteenth chancellor of the University of Pittsburgh. The run/fight and lockdown drills would not work in some situations, when gunmen come into the school or try to break in. Woodlynde needs a security guard to protect the children and teachers while they try to run away from school or hide inside the rooms. This is why Woodlynde needs security guards and not just the safety drills inside Woodlynde’s protection routine.
